I sparked a mysterious resurgence in Marvel.

Chapter 461 Hela Hitchhiking

Otherwise, if things continue like this, Erin probably won't even be able to sleep peacefully.

If we allow this kind of death, which we cannot control, to continue, it will be disastrous.

Who knows if I'll wake up one day to find myself the only survivor on the entire Furnace.

Thinking about this...

Erin stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, which was several times larger than the previous room.

Then, with a push, he sent the dense, mist-like pure death energy in his hand into "the vast starry sky in front of the window".

next second.

The huge floor-to-ceiling window in front of Erin, reflecting the cosmos, rippled like a drop of ink falling into the water.

"I never expected that in addition to her powerful death magic, Princess Hela's illusion magic skills are also so exquisite."

As soon as Erin finished speaking, the mirror-like surface suddenly disappeared, and then the floor-to-ceiling window of Erin's luxurious room slid outward by three meters.

And in this suddenly added space.

A pale-faced, yet still exuding queenly aura, mature woman appeared before Erin.

Meanwhile, the pure death energy that Erin had just pushed out was floating up and down in front of Hela, the goddess of death.

Suck.

With a deep breath, Hela dissipated the pure death energy between her nostrils.

Immediately afterwards, a barely perceptible amount of color returned to Hela's deathly pale face.

but.

The color had barely appeared when Hela, whose face had just begun to show a hint of enjoyment, suddenly began to cough violently.

"Cough cough cough..."

Seeing Hela coughing up what looked like her lungs, Erin magically produced a [Potential Healing Potion] from his hand.

"Although this medicine may not necessarily work on your injuries, but... would you like a vial?"

Looking at the [Potential Healing Potion] that Erin handed to her, Hela gave Erin a deep look, then uncorked the [Potential Healing Potion] and took a light sniff.

The next second, Hela's eyes lit up, and she picked up the [Potential Healing Potion], held the bottle to her lips, tilted her head back, and poured the entire vial of [Potential Healing Potion] into Hela's mouth.

It's unclear whether it was the [powerful healing potion] that worked, or whether the pure death energy from before provided Hela with a boost to her extremely poor physical condition.

After a while, Hela stopped coughing, and even her extremely pale complexion improved considerably.

After a moment of silence.

Hela looked at Erin and asked, "When did you find me?"

"When?"

After thinking for a moment, Erin said to Hela, "To be precise, it should have been discovered by Princess Hela when she approached the Forge. After all, Princess Hela's life magnetic field is so powerful that it is quite rare in the entire universe."

"Although you have concealed your existence with illusions, you are still no different from a torch in the darkness to me."

"With such a powerful life magnetic field approaching the Furnace, it would be difficult for me not to notice it."

"To be honest, I never expected to have the honor of riding on the same airship as Princess Hela."

As she spoke, Erin suddenly looked up.

Those eyes, brimming with spiritual light, even gave the weakened Hela the feeling that she was being seen through.

"Such powerful eye techniques. No wonder you detected me so easily... no..."

As she was speaking, Hela suddenly paused, then shook her head and said, "Even without this eye technique, I, who am severely injured, cannot hide from you because of your keen sense of death's aura. You are favored by death.

After Hela finished speaking, Erin looked at her quietly and said, "So, this is why you appeared in my room?"

Hela: "If I told you this was just an accident, would you believe me?"

Erin chuckled softly upon hearing this: "I believe you."

nonsense.

Erin believed it, of course.

After all, before this, Erin never expected that the Dwarf King would assign him this room with an uninvited guest.

Erin's crisp and decisive answer silenced Hela.

A few seconds later.

Hela explained, "My appearance here was just an accident. I remember seeing you in Asgard a month ago, so you should know what my father did to me a month ago."

"Having drifted through this starry sky for a month, I only wanted to use this dwarven spaceship to leave this desolate space."

I see!

Erin nodded and said with a hint of regret, "I am sorry about your family dispute."

"Regret? What's there to regret? It's just a matter of the winner taking all."

Hela sneered, "Now that old man is dead, no one in Asgard can stop me anymore. Once I recover from my injuries, I will return to Asgard and reclaim everything that belongs to me."

After saying that, Hela's gaze was fixed on Erin's eyes.

He seemed to be trying to read something from Erin's eyes.

After all, it was only a month ago.

Arlin was still in Asgard helping Asgard fight those dark elves.

In Hela's view, Arryn was undoubtedly on Odin's and Thor's side.

To Helen's surprise, instead of seeing the seriousness she had expected in Erin's eyes, she saw a hint of indifference.

Instinctively, Helen's face turned cold, and her tone changed abruptly as she said, "What? You think I can't do that? Or do you think I can't handle my weak little brother?"

"As far as I know, Thor is no match for Princess Hela."

Shaking his head, Erin continued, "Once Princess Hela recovers from her injuries, she can certainly march on Asgard and reclaim everything that belongs to her. However..."

Seeing that Hela's complexion had improved slightly, Erin suddenly changed his tone and said, "However, even without force, I think Princess Hela is not incapable of reclaiming everything she has."

In Asgard, Odin, who had the greatest conflict with Hela, had already fallen.

Even Heimdall, who had never really accepted Hela, was dead.

Now, the ones in charge of Asgard are himself, disguised as Odin, and Thor, who is increasingly losing interest in the throne.

Aside from her own clones, neither Queen Fricka nor Thor harbored as deep prejudices against Hela as she had imagined.

Asgard is currently surrounded by wolves.

If Hela, Odin's eldest daughter, were willing to change her previous radical approach, Thor and Frieza might be able to bring her back.

After all, Asgard desperately needs the protection of a powerful figure, and Hela, as Odin's eldest daughter, who once established herself as the goddess of death in the universe, has both the strength and the prestige to protect Asgard.

If Hela were willing to return, it might not be a bad option for Asgard at this point.

of course.

This is just Erin's opinion.

Thor and Frieza might not think that way.

No.

Even Hela, standing in front of Erin, didn't seem to think so.

"Ha, I don't need anyone's charity. What I want, I will take myself."

After letting out a cold laugh, Hela suddenly turned to Erin with interest and said, "Interesting. I thought you would object to me, but I didn't expect this, hehe."

Erin smiled upon hearing this: "I've never been particularly interested in meddling in other people's family affairs."

Regardless, Hela is Odin's eldest daughter and Thor's older sister.

Hela, who has Odin's blood flowing through her veins, naturally possesses a dominant position over Asgard.

Regardless of whether Hela or Thor wins, the rule of Asgard remains in the hands of Odin's family.

Therefore, Arryn wasn't really interested in who ruled Asgard.

"Housework?"

Hela snorted coldly, but a complex look appeared in her eyes.

After a moment of silence, Hela looked at Erin and said, "I've given you refined pure death energy and healing potions. Tell me, what do you want? As long as your request isn't excessive, I might be able to grant it."

Although Hela has a strong and domineering personality, she is not the kind of person who repays kindness with enmity.

of course.

Whether her current severe injuries mean she might not necessarily be an enemy of Erin is unclear to everyone.

After hearing Hela's words.

Erin, who had already planned to use Hela as a training fodder, didn't hold back and immediately asked what she most wanted to know.

"In fact, I do have something I'd like to ask Princess Hela. Since Princess Hela has noticed that I'm being favored by death, does she have a way to shield me from this favor?"

"I don't care about myself, but this death blessing is too heavy for the people around me. I don't want my relatives and friends, or even passersby, to fall under this death blessing that day."

Upon hearing this, Hela looked at Erin with a look of disbelief in her eyes.

The intense aura of death emanating from Erin was, in Hela's eyes, nothing short of a blessing.

This is a blessing of death that even she, who possesses the power of death, does not have.

With this strong blessing of death, even if Erin doesn't do anything, he can still leave everyone else in the dust on the path of death and rapidly become stronger.

If Hela hadn't already amassed her own authority over death and embarked on her own unique path of death, even she would probably have been tempted by the intense deathly aura emanating from Erin.

Then... find a way to take it for yourself.

But this blessing of death that even moved her heart seemed to be unwanted by Erin.

Hela frowned slightly and said, "While Death's Favor may bring misfortune to those around you, it can also make you stronger faster."

"After you've seen more of these things, you'll realize how lucky it is to have the blessing of death. As for so-called relatives and friends, you'll find that they are not as important as your own strength."

After being sealed away by Odin, the father she admired, for thousands of years, Hela had long been utterly disillusioned with so-called kinship.

In Hela's current view, family ties are not as important as becoming stronger.

In response to Hela's extreme remarks, Erin shrugged and said, "Becoming stronger is certainly important, but for me, family and friends are just as important."

"Of course, the most important thing is that I have already chosen the path I want to take. Although death may make me stronger, death is not the path I want to take."

"So, does Lady Hela have a way to shield or weaken the power within me that brings death to others?"

The first half of Erin's sentence made Hela's eyes flash with a hint of disdain.

However, Erin's next words seemed to remind Hela of something, and her eyes flashed with a sharp light.

After Erin finished speaking, Hela stood up and carefully examined Erin before saying, "Of course there is a way."

"The fundamental reason why the children of death bring misfortune to those around them is simply that their strength is insufficient to control their powerful death talent, causing the deathly favor bestowed upon them to dissipate and affect those around them."

"I can teach you how to fully explore and control this talent, but the price of that pure death energy and that healing potion alone is... not enough."

Hearing this, Erin's expression darkened slightly, then she asked in a low voice, "So what do you want?"

Seeing Erin's increasingly serious expression, Hela smiled for the first time.

"Don't worry, little guy, I just want to make a deal with you."

As she spoke, Hela sat back down on the recliner, her long legs, encased in leather pants, slightly crossed, making her slender thighs appear even straighter.

In addition, Hela's queen-like demeanor gave her a unique charm at this moment.

"If you truly don't want to walk the path of death, as you just said, then let's make a deal."

"Next, I can help you fully master your own death talent, but until you fully master your death talent and digest this death favor, all the death energy you absorb through this talent will belong to me."

"Do you agree to this deal?"

"If you agree, I can teach you now to discover and fully master the death talent within you, and eliminate the influence of death's favor on others."

Hela, reclining in a deckchair, displayed her graceful figure to the fullest, yet her pale complexion remained undeniable.

A flash of understanding crossed Erin's eyes.

Do you want to trade the death energy I've absorbed?

Is this guy trying to recover from his injuries by absorbing the pure death energy refined by my talent?

It seems.

Hela's injuries from the explosion a month ago were more severe than I had imagined.

But that's normal.

If the injury wasn't too serious.

Hela had already returned to Helheim by tearing through space with a single sword strike, just as she had done on Earth, through the connection with Helheim.

Where would it be, drifting in the universe more than a month after that explosion?

If it weren't for this unexpected encounter and hitch a ride on the Furnace, Hela might not even know how long she would have drifted in this vast starry sky.
