You and me under the world tree

Gloria never thought that the rationality she was proud of would be so vulnerable under the current situation.

Even, she had to close her eyes and rearrange her thoughts.

"Wait, Eggers, what do you mean by that?"

"Huh? Did I say that?"

"correct."

"I said Utgarde will not die."

"However, according to the original plan, Utgarde will..."

"Ah, you said this."

Before Gloria finished speaking, Eggers showed a smile.

"About this, I should thank Huofender... No, I should call him Huode now."

When talking about this, Eggers suddenly turned around.

She didn't pay too much attention to the two friends who cared about her, but stared at the 'human girl' who wanted to become a transparent person who would not be noticed from the very beginning.

She just hid behind her white-haired best friend, nibbling on the delicious little cake made by Zebul like a hamster.

For her, eating is, in a sense, a means of venting stress.

And when Eggers turned her head without warning, she was frightened all of a sudden, and a piece of cake just fell into her throat without warning.

Choking on cake! !

Her face flushed all of a sudden, and Hela couldn't help covering her throat.

"water……"

And I didn't expect this to happen at all, and Eggers, who was still a little peaceful at first, was also a little panicked.

"Wait, what's wrong with you?"

"Really..."

In the end, Dietrich, who was still close at hand, resolved this little crisis.

With the help of a glass of water, Hela regained her strength.

"what happened?"

she asked.

Under Agather's gaze, she always felt uneasy.

This feeling was different from when Hodder and the others got along.

In Helheim, she is the cruel and cold Queen of the Nether.

In front of Hodder and Dietrich, she is their companion day and night.

However, under Agather's sight, she suddenly felt much smaller.

That kind of panic is no different from that of a child.

"No, nothing."

Seeing Hela's dodging appearance, Eggers said softly.

Utgard told her everything before, without any concealment, which of course also included things related to this child.

However, she didn't intend to order these.

"In short, he helped improve the original design."

"However, it was originally designed by Loki himself, and Diaz couldn't find any flaws."

Gloria muttered in a low voice.

It's not that she has any doubts or distrust towards Hodder, it's just that she can't believe it for a while.

Certain cognitions lingered in her mind for a long time, almost forming an inherent cognition, and suddenly a person suddenly appeared to break these completely, which always made her feel a little unreal.

Only at this time, a certain name she mentioned directly alerted Skadi.

"Who are you talking about?"

she asked.

"Who what?"

"You said Diaz before?"

Scotty just frowned.

"my father……"

Every time the extravagant and depraved giant king is mentioned, Skadi, as a daughter, naturally feels complicated as one can imagine.

But now it looks a little different, because she never dreamed that he would be involved in this matter.

"What's the matter?"

"Diaz was involved in this from start to finish, Skadi."

In the end, it was Zebul who answered Skadi's doubts.

"However, for specific matters, you can ask him after he comes out by himself. There are some things that he knows better by himself."

While Skadi was still digesting the huge amount of information he had learned, Gloria couldn't help covering his head.

"What is this called? I thought Utgard would..."

Concerned about the presence of Eggers, Gloria still avoided certain words and did not fully explain them.

However, anyone with a discerning eye could see her vague and complaining thoughts.

"Because of this kind of thing, I dare not meet with you, and in the end..."

She didn't continue talking, this time because she didn't know what words to use to describe her current mood.

"Anyway..."

She pursed her lips, and finally smiled wryly.

"I always feel that my worries this week are all in vain."

…………

Almost at the same time, a similar sound echoed beside the sword casting furnace.

"I always feel that the awareness I have made is a waste."

After quickly browsing through the contents recorded on the sheepskin scroll, Diaz sighed helplessly.

And what he said made Utgard roll his eyes.

"Consciousness? What kind of consciousness are you? Holding the consciousness to kill me?"

"The will to destroy the happiness of others, Utgarde."

"..."

Facing Diaz's serious gaze, he was suddenly speechless.

"I understand the feeling of losing a loved one, and I don't want to be the executioner who deprives others of happiness."

"Diaz..."

"Cough cough cough."

Seeing that the atmosphere seemed to be getting sad, Hodder couldn't help interrupting Utgard who seemed to have something to say.

"In short, do you have any comments on this design drawing?"

"If the technology you're talking about 'from Gurnita Hyde' exists, then there's no problem."

"Then, follow this."

Howard raised his eyebrows.

"First of all, Utgarde, bear with it a little, it might hurt a little."

Facing the gaze of the giant, Hodder took out a rune sword.

And when he saw the blade, Utgard's expression immediately became bitter.

"Could it be another way?"

"No, this is the most efficient."

"alright."

With his consent, the sharp rune sword pierced through the giant's chest.

At that moment, Utgarde found that he didn't even have the strength to shout.

He just stretched out his hand desperately, but in the end it just rested on Hodder's shoulder.

"please……"

good night everybody

Epilogue [-]: Attracting the Fall

Inside the workshop, the rune sword exerted its power silently.

Gradually, the giant's body fell down weakly, and his soul was pulled out.

But at the same moment, a certain mutation suddenly happened.

'boom'

It's flames!

Just as Hodder took out Utgarde's soul stone like killing Mondial Farley, he felt the blazing heat coming to his face.

However, the current Huo De has no way to stop there.

He even wanted to scold his mother.

It's not that he didn't expect any accidents in the process, but he hasn't started casting yet, and this kind of thing happened just at the beginning.

'boom'

As soon as Utgarde's soul left his body, Hodder felt as if he was in flames.

It seemed like everything was going to burn.

He didn't even dare to put Utgarde's soul directly into the special soul stone according to the original plan.

Because not to mention completely storing it, the flame might directly break that fragile structure, and it is not impossible to burn it down.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look up at Utgarde.

"Can you control yourself?"

"Unfortunately, no, I don't have a clue about that at all."

'boom'

Under Hodder's gaze, Utgarde's soul, which is completely different from ordinary giants, is like a volcano that will erupt at any time.

Blazing flames continued to burst out from his soul, as if even the air would be ignited.

'zila'

That's not a description, but a positive description.

Huodecha felt that the gushing flames did not dissipate, but were burning quietly.
