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

"Is that so?" Seleus's tone seemed a little flat.

"Aren't you surprised?" Badr opened his mouth wide. "If Thor was here, my neck would have been firmly strangled by him."

"Sounds like something Thor would do." Seleus nodded. "But I think you haven't finished speaking, and I'm willing to wait patiently for a while."

As I said before, Serius didn't think that Odin had done anything wrong other than withholding his salary, and naturally he didn't care whether Baldr would apologize.

"You make me feel ashamed, Seleus, the position of God of Light should be given to you." Badr sighed, the more he gets along with Seleus, the more he will be attracted by his fiery soul .

"I just don't think I'm qualified to apologize to you for Odin, especially after he deducted the previously agreed reward."

"And I apologize to you because I clearly promised in front of Thor that I would give you a reward that no one can find fault with." Badr's radiant pupils obviously dimmed a lot.

"But everything I can think of can't even pass me..."

"That's not necessary, Bader." Serius patted the God of Light on the shoulder. Although he didn't understand why a simple transaction became so complicated, it didn't prevent him from comforting the brother he had just met.

"From the beginning to the end, what I'm looking for is nothing more than the three illusory things I agreed with Odin. As for the so-called value mismatch, there is no..."

"No, Seleus!" Badr interrupted Seleus. "Just like what Sur said, after you saved her, we should have directly used those three items as a gift to thank you."

Having said that, the God of Light suddenly stood up, his whole body filled with an aura called 'resolute'.

"Wait!" Serius stretched out his hand, wanting to grab Bader and explain, but his newly recovered body couldn't keep up with the speed of the God of Light.

"Selius, your nobility is beyond the reach of the sun in the sky." The God of Light arrived at the gate of the palace in two or three steps. I understand respect. "Maybe you don't care about these, but we can't continue to make mistakes."

"So..." Serius looked at Badr in front of the door with a complicated expression, and for the first time he felt that his brain was not enough. "What are you going to do?"

"I'm going to ask the queen mother." Badr stepped directly out of the gate of the palace. "Don't worry, my promise will definitely be fulfilled, and I will definitely find a reward that is enough for everyone to find fault with..."

"What's this called?" Seeing Balder gradually disappearing from sight, Seleus could only helplessly put down his outstretched arm.

Just like when he gave up saving Sur to offset one of Odin's demands, Seleus always felt that it was his own spontaneous behavior-he just wanted to save, so he went to save.

His actions come entirely from his own heart, and have nothing to do with anyone other than himself. Therefore, he does not need thanks from others, and naturally he does not need compensation from others.

But Baldr's actions also come from his heart, he wants to repay Serleus, and this has nothing to do with Serleus...

"Let him go." Seleus scratched his head. He could do that himself, so naturally he has no right to stop others from doing the same thing. Double standards are not advisable at all.

"What we need to care about now is Odin." He clenched his fists, feeling that he had returned to his full posture.

"According to Thor's reaction, illusory things shouldn't be very precious, but why does Odin have to make things so complicated?"

Serius couldn't understand Odin's plan, because in his simple values, he couldn't think of what the King of the Nine Realms could get by doing so.

"Forget it, I'd better do my own task first, but I don't know if Odin will take over...huh?"

Seleus, who suddenly felt his shoulders sinking, turned his head in doubt. In his vision, the crow he had seen with Thor landed on his shoulders at some point.

The crow exuding divine power first rubbed his cheek intimately, and then yelled 'yayah'.

"You mean, Odin is going to see me now..."

Chapter 27 Second Requirement

Asgard, Golden Palace Hualas Gaiafne.

Odin, who was firmly seated on the throne, and Serius, his highness, confronted each other, and an unspeakable atmosphere filled the empty palace.

'Is it my illusion? 'Selius narrowed his eyes slowly, and he always felt that there seemed to be something wrong with Odin in front of him.

In other words, when he was lured into the Golden Palace by Thor, and pulled to her throne by the worried Sun Goddess, he was faintly aware of the problem with the God King.

But because the freezing of his soul has not been lifted, and his spirit and body are very uncoordinated, he ignores the strangeness as an illusion.

But now, whether it's the declaration of the Great God that Odin clenched in his right hand, or the faint exhaustion and despondency emanating from the well-groomed appearance...

All these signs have shown one thing to Celius - the 'Odin' who made the request is by no means the same person as the Odin who is meeting now.

'But if the 'Odin' was pretended by another person last time, then why would Odin, the king of gods, allow such behavior? 'Selius fell into thought.

As Seleus watched Odin, the one-eyed god-king gazed carefully into his soul.

Fiery, crystal clear...Although it is not clear because of the darkness that is firmly wrapped in the deepest part, but because of this, this ruby-like luster can be called unparalleled in the world...

'Did i do something wrong? 'Inexplicably, Odin asked himself for the first time since drinking 'wisdom' and vowing to avoid Regaluk's arrival at all costs.

The perseverance revealed in the crimson pupils is not false, the blessings melted together by the flames are full of hope, and the tempered body is silently telling the sufferings he has suffered...

'If it's this kid, even if I don't use these dirty tricks, I will definitely get his help, right? Odin thought so, and closed his one eye full of 'wisdom' gently.

Knowing that the requirements and rewards were extremely unreasonable, he never showed any anger because of it; knowing that the gods were excited for him, but he always sat in his seat without saying a word...

Odin knew very well that when he had a conflict with Thor, as long as Serius expressed his attitude, the gods headed by Thor and Sul would definitely force him to hand over all three illusory things to him.

Even, if Seleus has the heart, he only needs to pretend to be "understanding the righteousness", and then lightly "persuade" Thor who is in a rage.

Then, combined with the scene where he took off the head of Khorem and was seriously injured, the Asa protoss who have been together like family for tens of thousands of years are likely to fall apart...

No one in the entire Nine Realms can understand the power of the so-called "tongue" better than Odin, who is Loki's brother-in-law.

But, he didn't.

It's not ignorance, because in Odin's one-eyed eye, a witty azure blue is always by his side.

That is to say, in the choice between benefit and righteousness, this foreign warrior chose righteousness without hesitation, and scenes similar to this had been repeated countless times in his past journeys...

"I'm really guilty..." Sighing in my heart, Odin, who opened his one eye, once again became the god king who wanted to avoid 'Regaruk' at all costs.

In the face of the coming end, he didn't have the leeway to gamble on the good and evil of people's hearts, and of course, he didn't have the qualifications to gamble...

"Selius, a warrior from a foreign land..."

The old and low voice, with a hint of majesty, awakened Serius who was in deep thought. He raised his head, and his crimson eyes were fixed on the god-king Odin on the throne.

"My second request..."

"Wait a minute! The god-king of Asgard." Odin's words were directly interrupted by Serius. "I've already completed the first requirement, so..."

"Can you talk to me about the reward we agreed on first?" Seleus stepped forward, and looked into Odin's one-eyed eyes without giving in.

In the previous conflict between Thor and Odin, it was really difficult for him to express his position, and what he said and thought when he talked with Baldr was by no means empty words, but this does not mean that Sirius will let Odin act like a fool. arrange'.

Although there is no difference between what he did before and being taken advantage of, taking the initiative to be taken advantage of and being treated as a victim are two completely different things from the beginning to the end.

Therefore, before completing the second requirement, he must ensure that the reward he deserves will definitely fall into his own hands.

"here."

Odin stretched out his left hand, and countless faint and illusory light spots slowly emerged in the open palm. The cat's footsteps, the roots of the rocks, the vigilance of the wild bear... All kinds of illusory things are here.

Of course, the God King knew that his previous actions had begun to make the warrior lose his trust in him, but he had already prepared for it.

"Since the King of God is ready, I will accept it..." After being confirmed by 'Metis', Seleus was about to step forward to collect the reward he deserved, but just as he took a step forward, the King of God Then he closed his left hand again.

"What is the meaning of the God King?" The crimson flames of destruction ignited instantly, and Serius' eyes with sparkling sparks stared at Odin's old but extremely calm face.

"Relax, I don't want to break with my sons." Odin's tone was very flat. "You can also see Thor's previous performance. If I really do something small, he will be the first to trouble me."

"In this case, why didn't the king of gods give me the reward?" Seleus raised his eyebrows, but these words alone could not convince him.

"Although I didn't witness the battle between you and Hlem, I can guess from your state when you returned to Asgard that it must have been a tough battle." Odin's tone was unwavering, just like what he said It's all really the same.

Serius nodded, which was nothing to admit.

"Then, why don't you ask me for a reward after the three requirements are completed together?" Odin's expression remained calm. "Otherwise, if something goes wrong in the process of completing the request..."

Hearing this, Seleus didn't answer right away, but narrowed his eyes and looked at Odin's expression carefully - he wanted to know whether Odin really thought so, or had other plans.

But to Serius' disappointment, Odin's old face has been covered by a thick gray beard, and he, who is inexperienced, can't see clearly what this old man who has lived for tens of thousands of years is thinking.

"If your thoughts are as you said..." After a long time, Serius, who really couldn't see anything, sighed softly.

"Then please listen to me, my second request..." At this point, Odin's one-eyed eyes suddenly flashed coldness and determination.

"I want you to kill Fenrir, the demon wolf who devours the sky, and his brother, Yemengard, the worldly python!"

Chapter 28 A Complete Break

Atrium, Midgard, in the endless deep sea.

"I always feel that there is something wrong." Roaming in the sea, the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.

After Odin finished his request, there was a slightly chaotic atmosphere in the Golden Palace...

No!It didn't appear suddenly, it was more like a certain emotion was generated because of Odin's remarks, which caused the breath to leak and could not maintain its own privacy.

Although the owner of the breath quickly hid himself again, that moment was enough for Serius to perceive his presence.

[So, when you find a problem, why not list and analyze what you found wrong from beginning to end? 】

The tone of 'Metis' sounded a little helpless, as if he was helplessly watching the dog he raised since he was a child grow older, but he was helpless.

"After thinking about it, I have the ability to disguise myself, and I worry that Loki is the only one because of the lives of Fenrir and Yermungard."

While waving his hand to drive away the stupid fish following him, Serius expressed his doubts.

Although the body's actions have a tendency to surpass thinking due to the increase in strength, it doesn't mean that his mind is blank when he doesn't do it.

wrong!His mind was not completely blank when he started.

"But the question is why Loki, who should have parted ways with Odin, appeared in the Golden Palace?"

Seleus didn't understand very much.

If there is no strangeness shown by Odin when he made the request for the first time before, then even if it is unreasonable, Loki's behavior can be explained by "Long live the old father tried his best to assassinate the overlord of the Nine Realms in order to save his son's life".

But all the clues Serius found indicated that Odin knew of Loki's existence, and that the two of them seemed to have reached some kind of agreement behind the back of the gods.

But if this is the case, why did Odin ask Celius to kill the two brothers?

【......really. 】

"So, since you can't figure it out..."

[So, what are you going to do without knowing the truth of the matter? 】

Before Seleus questioned him, 'Metis' changed the topic first.

"Uh...you...forget it." Seleus sighed, and decided not to argue too much with 'Metis'.

"Odin's request was to kill the two brothers instead of taking off their heads as before, which gave me room to maneuver."

【Are you planning to...bring them directly into Hela, the kingdom of the underworld? 】

"Otherwise?" Serius smiled slyly. "Since Odin made a small move first, I naturally want to take a small revenge."

"People who live in the underworld are naturally undead, and killing a person is equivalent to sending this person to the underworld, then the situation is very clear—"

"Bringing Fenrir and Yermungard into the underworld is equivalent to killing them. Even Odin can't fault me."

Seleus said that no one can understand death and the underworld better than him.

【...】

The triumphant Seleus made 'Metis' fall into a long silence...

【Are you sure Hela will let you bring her two brothers into the underworld?If she refuses, what will you, son of Hades, do? 】

As a Nordic country without the concept of immortality, the ultimate destination of all creatures in the Nine Realms is Hela, the kingdom of the underworld, which is controlled by Hela. Even the gods will be governed by Hela after death.

Therefore, Hela's status in Northern Europe is equivalent to Hades who got the scythe of destruction in the Greek world, and even to a certain extent, she has greater rights than Hades.

"Hela probably won't refuse..." Serius scratched his head, he really didn't think about it. "Unless she wants to see her two brothers being 'sent' to Hela in the Underworld by me in the normal way."

[What if? 】

"In case Hela really refuses..." Serius' expression became extremely serious, as if he was struggling to make some kind of decision, and then...

He spread his hands innocently. "I really don't have a good idea."

【...】

"Do you think I will fight the god of Hades unnecessarily?" Seleus blinked. "Think about it and know it's impossible."

[Should I really be worthy of being you? 】

.........

Asgard, Golden Palace Hualas Gaiafne.

The one-eyed king was silently watching the departing figure of Serius. He put his hand on his forehead, as if he was thinking about something.
