I don't like the gods, I want to be a hero

Seleus shook his head, and then stopped worrying about the breath remaining in the rattan chair. Then, he looked up at the king of gods on the throne, and his brows frowned involuntarily.

Odin still had the same old face, with a tall eagle helmet covering one eye on his head, armor made of steel was draped over his body, and he made a 'cracking' sound as he breathed. Sounds...everything seems to be the same.

But Seleus keenly noticed that Odin's right hand did not grasp the declaration of the great god representing infinite power, but let him lean on the throne.

Moreover, Seleus also found a problem in Odin's beard, which was obviously a bit disheveled and not in line with the appearance that a god-king should have, but somehow exuded a vigor that belonged to young people.

"My friend from Asgard, Seleus who came from a foreign land, I regret to inform you..." Odin stretched out a hand to stroke his beard, and his one eye stared closely at His Highness Seleus. Luce.

"You saved the sun in the Nine Realms. We should have satisfied one of your requests, but what you asked for were three precious illusory things."

Odin held out three fingers, as if to emphasize the inconsistent number, and then, without waiting for Serius' reaction, he continued.

"I can only give you one illusory thing, and if you want to return to your hometown with three illusory things, you must do two more things for me..."

"What's the matter with you? Odin." Before Odin could finish speaking, Thor beside Serius interrupted the God King's next speech with a look of impatience. "Selius is our friend and even a benefactor, but you deceived him because of three things you've never heard of..."

As he spoke, the God of Thunder stepped closer to Odin's throne, waving his fist and wanted to punch him, but he quickly reacted, his golden pupils stared blankly at his raised fist, It seemed that he was taken aback by his subconscious behavior.

"Okay, Thor, the one sitting on the throne is the king of gods. He has the right to decide how I should get the three treasures." Seleus also stepped forward, with one hand directly on Thor's shoulder, and the other With one hand, he pulled him to His Highness forcefully.

"Besides, saving the sun is something I want to do myself. I will not and cannot ask for rewards for this matter as a favor to you."

"But..." Thor wanted to say something, but was interrupted softly by Serius.

"Okay, Thor, let's put this matter aside." Saying this, Seleus winked at his friend beside him. "Don't you think that the trust and acceptance of the gods of Asgard and your friendship with Thor are far higher than the value of an illusory thing?"

"Hahahaha!" Thor was stunned for a moment, then laughed and patted Serius on the shoulder, and then he sat down on the wicker chair, his golden pupils staring at the throne. God King Odin.

"So, Seleus, are you going to accomplish my three things in exchange for three illusory things?" Odin seemed to be completely indifferent to the little theater between Seleus and Thor, and instead paid more attention to what Seleus proposed. to the 'three things'.

"If you can get an illusory thing by doing one thing." Seleus looked at Odin on the throne, but the corner of his eye kept scanning the space around the throne.

"So, now let's talk about the first thing you have to do..." Odin noticed the small movement of Serius' eyes, but he didn't say anything, except that the corners of his mouth, which was deeply buried by the beard, lifted slightly up.

"I want you to go to Jotunheim and take the head of the king of the frost giants—Herlem..."

Chapter 18 Lightning Sword

The border of Asgard is an inconceivably large and unfathomably long celestial river. Its water originates from nowhere, twists and turns, and easily flows to the edge of the kingdom of floating gods.

The gushing river water flew straight to the boundless sea of ​​clouds, forming a huge and spectacular waterfall. The water mist rose and the clouds were lingering. There was no sunshine but still formed a gorgeous rainbow.

This is the Rainbow Bridge, the only way from the Nine Worlds to Asgard.

And Seleus, who agreed to Odin's request, is now standing at the head of the Rainbow Bridge, saying goodbye to his new friend Thor.

"You shouldn't have agreed, Seleus." Thor, who had been silent since leaving the Golden Palace, kept beating his arm with a warhammer, as if doing so would make his inner irritability as rough The impurities in the iron are generally all expelled.

"Why can't you agree?" Seleus exerted strength with his right hand and lightly carried the battle ax on his shoulder. "A request for a treasure, a fair deal."

"Besides the numbers, I don't see any fairness at all." Thor scratched his hair violently. Compared with the strongest Thor in the Nine Realms, his appearance was more like an indecisive fool.

"Isn't that enough?" Seleus chuckled. "At first, I thought I had to do twelve things in exchange for one treasure, just like one of my senior brothers."

"You don't understand, the value of the two is not at the same level." Thor clenched his huge fist. "Even if it's me, I would only dare to go to Jotunheim in a sneaky way, let alone cut off Hrem's head in the center of the kingdom of the frost giants."

"Guess why? I should have warned you, Serius." Thor began to strike his arm with his hammer again. "Every frost giant has the power not to lose to the gods."

"You mean every one of them?" Serius' pupils shrank sharply, looking very surprised by the news.

"Of course!" Thor seemed satisfied with Seleus' shock. "Otherwise, why do you think I tolerate them offending my hometown from time to time, if I..."

"What about the fertility of the frost giants?"

Thor, who was about to say something, was stunned.

"Puff!" Heimdall, who was eavesdropping on the conversation between the two, laughed uncontrollably. This sudden sound immediately attracted the eyes of the two powerful gods who were puzzled or examined.

"It's nothing, I'm just... well, I suddenly remembered something happy, yes, I just remembered something happy." Heimdall, who realized that the eavesdropping was discovered, retreated back to his palace with a smile.

"I'm leaving now, I'm leaving now, the two of you can chat slowly."

Although he is known as the god of war who is not inferior to Thor, he knows in his heart that he is far from being Thor's opponent, let alone facing two gods with Thor-level strength at the same time.

Therefore, the wise Heimdall decisively left the sight of the two of them.

Thor didn't pay attention to Heimdall's mood, but turned his head directly, staring at Serius in front of him with his two golden eyes.

To be honest, he really couldn't handle Serius' endless inquiries.

"What do you mean?"

"Just asking you about the fertility of the frost giants." Seleus blinked, his plain expression appearing very innocent. "For example, how long does it take them to give birth to a giant..."

"Don't you understand what I mean? Does the fertility of the frost giants have something to do with what I said?" Excited, Thor reached out and grabbed Serius by the collar, his red beard almost poking here. The nose of a crimson warrior.

"I said! Every frost giant has the power not to lose to the gods, but you asked me how the fertility of the frost giants is?"

The exasperated Thunder God of the Nine Realms frantically shook Serleus' head with his sturdy arms as thick as wooden stakes, and the saliva he spit out crossed the obstacles of his beard and was about to fly to Serleus' face.

"Wow—"

The power of the sun formed a light curtain in an instant, blocking all the 'attacks' from Thor, but Seleus's careless attitude obviously angered the red-haired god who was worried about his friends.

I saw Torben's already strong muscles suddenly swelled up, and the sudden increase in strength directly shook Serius' head into afterimages, and even the air was hot because of the violent friction. .

"Actually..." The voice was forced to be prolonged due to violent shaking, but Serius' expression remained flat, and as if to strengthen his persuasiveness, he stretched out the index finger of his right hand to the in front of Thor.

"It's because you said that every frost giant has the power not to lose to the gods, so I want to ask how their fertility is, so as to estimate the number of frost giants."

Suddenly, the air fell into an unspeakable silence.

"Ahem... In short, their fertility is slightly better than our gods, but because of their long lifespan, no one knows how many giants Jotunheim has accumulated..."

Thor coughed a few times, let go of the hand holding Seleus' collar as if nothing had happened, and then introduced the characteristics of the frost giants to Seleus calmly.

Hmm... like nothing ever happened.

"It's really a great help, Thor." Serius looked at Thor, the god of thunder, who kept digging something with one foot, with some amusement, and then reached out and patted Thor's shoulder, which was a complete embarrassment just now. uncovered the past.

"With this information, my trial can finally be a little easier."

"So... are you sure you want to go alone?" Thor's big hand tightly grasped the handle of the warhammer.

"I am immortal. As long as my will is not subdued, my life will not come to an end." Seleus chuckled. He understood Thor's hint, but he chose to refuse. "So take it easy, Thor."

"I will definitely not die in Jotunheim until I fulfill my promise to have a good fight with you..."

Accompanied by the brilliant light of the Rainbow Bridge, the figure of Seleus disappeared in front of Thor's eyes in an instant.

"So what if you don't die...those guys, but frost giants..."

.........

On the border of Jotunheim, a group of huge monsters are vying for their food.

They have a basic human shape, but they are rickety, with unusually thick limbs, and trembling sarcoma grows on the green skin of excrement, which occasionally breaks open and oozes dark green pus...

When Serius saw them, they were grabbing something that was still squirming with their big hands covered in dirt, and they were sending something into their yellow-toothed mouth...

Without a sound, the Arrow of the Sun was shot out of the string, and the Arrow of Flame, wrapped in a huge divine power, pierced the sky and nailed into the group of giant monsters in the distance with great precision.

The next moment, the dazzling sun's light instantly surged up, covering and cleaning the space with a radius of more than ten kilometers.

Before those tall and ugly giants figured out what was going on with their pitifully small heads, they turned into fly ash under the rays of the sun.

"To be honest..." Seleus's eyes twitched a few times, and he carefully sensed whether there were any fish that slipped through the net around him, and finally he slowly put down the streamer longbow with the gorgeous sun wings in his hand.

"I really don't want to think about how these ghost things that are so ugly that they surpass the lower limit of aesthetics are born."

[In fact, these monsters themselves are the products of the Frost Giants to fight against Valhalla's Hall of Valhalla. They have tried various shapes to resemble them...]

"Stop!" Seleus, who realized something was wrong, hastily stopped 'Metis' from continuing. "I said I don't want to hear it, so can you just skip this paragraph."

【...】

【Okay, since you don't want to hear it...but I have to remind you that because of your attack just now, the owner here has already discovered your existence. 】

As soon as the words of 'Metis' fell, Serius suddenly turned his head to the distance - he sensed something approaching him.

The earth 'rumbling' began to vibrate, and in Serius' vision, giant hands the size of warships grabbed the towering peaks without warning, and immediately after, the huge bodies of the frost giants It slowly came out from among the mountains.

"Roar!!!"

Seeing Serius, the 'little man' who dared to break into Jotunheim, these ugly and ferocious frost giants roared loudly.

"This is troublesome." Serius looked at the Frost Giant rushing towards him with a delicate expression.

If there were only one or two frost giants, Seleus could easily kill them completely, but when these frost giants with god power formed an army to attack him at the same time, even with the common blessing of two lines of gods, He will fall here if he is not careful.

[Be careful, even if you have the power of immortality, the cold air combined by these frost giants is enough to freeze your body firmly. 】

"This means that I must not be surrounded by them, right?" Seleus sighed silently as he watched the Frost Giant approaching, and then put his battle ax on his shoulder. "I see!"

"call out----"

The terrifying sonic boom resounded through the sky, and accompanied by the berserk air waves, Seleus' figure cut off the arm of a frost giant in an instant. Then, he turned around suddenly, and with the help of the huge inertia of acceleration, he ruthlessly kicked on the ground. Above the head of the frost giant.

"Bam—!"

The incomparable power exploded the air, and the air waves visible to the naked eye burst out and spread wildly to the surroundings.

Before the Frost Giant, whose arm had been severed, had no time to howl, the bones of its head were directly shattered, and its huge body, unable to support it, fell down with a bang, without a trace of life.

"Roar!!!"

The killing of his companion caused a frost giant next to him to roar angrily. It raised its arm high, and then slammed it down on Serius' head.

The wind howled, and before the giant's palm fell, the ground next to it was forced to collapse under the pressure of the terrifying wind.

However, the next moment, not only did it fail to get what it wanted, it even stopped attacking abruptly.

But Seleus, who was surrounded by flames, swung his battle axe, and chopped off the arm of the Frost Giant first, followed by another brilliant ax light, which split it in two neatly.

"So, just one or two frost giants will not pose any threat to me at all." Controlling the flames to evaporate the ice-blue blood rain, Seleus carried the battle ax on his shoulders. ㈥~㈧!.3! ㈦ 0ii[email protected]⑨ (IX) (V)

"But..." Seleus cast his eyes into the distance. "The rest will be troublesome."

It was a large group of frost giants that still made the earth rumble. At a glance, there might be dozens of them. They roared angrily, and moved their legs frantically towards Serius.

Moreover, it seemed that they had seen the terrifying power of Serius from the death of the two companions, and the icy aura on the surface of the frost giants began to intertwine, forming hard azure blue ice shields.

Some of these ice shields are suspended around them, always guarding against the flame arrows that they felt before, containing the power of the sun.

The other part is inlaid on their tough skin to ensure that they cannot be directly split by the battle axes wrapped in flames.

"Whoosh-"

The crimson light began to condense in Serius' left eye, and the next moment, the berserk destructive power roared towards the crowd of frost giants in the distance.

But when he saw that his attack could barely break through their combined frost domain, and exploded the ice armor and ice shield on the three-headed frost giant who bore the brunt, causing a burst of ice-blue blood rain, it had no effect after the situation.

Seleus couldn't help frowning.

"It's hard to imagine that groups of frost giants actually possess such abilities."

[Although their behavior is closer to that of beasts, they are 'children of the world' after all, and their own abilities can naturally be called unique. 】

"That's it." Serius sighed, and then silently turned the battle ax in his hand into flames and retracted it into his body.

"Zizizi——"

The violent thunder light suddenly exploded in Serius' hands, and the thunder sword that contained endless divine power was dragged backwards behind him.

"To be honest, I really don't want to replace Lord Hephaestus' battle axe."

Rapid thunder poured into Serius' body through the giant sword, and then, dazzling thunder burst out from his eyes.

"But I have to admit that there is no way to compete with the hordes of you with only Everdias."

Scarlet divine lines began to emerge on Serius' body, and extended to the Thunder Greatsword in his hand very naturally.

"Roar!"

The frost giants, whose eyes were infested with hatred, stepped on the footsteps that made the earth roar, uprooted every mountain and broke through every inch of land wherever they went, and smashed the snow mountain hundreds of meters in their hands at Serius past.

"So can you please hurry up and die?" The dazzling thunder light stretched crazily on the blade, and the hundreds of meters long thunder giant sword was dragged by Serius, and swung fiercely at the frost giants ahead. past.

"I want to hurry up and get the tomahawk back..."
