Marvel: Starting with the Glint-Glint Fruit

Matthew may not be as powerful as Odin now, but his potential is undeniable. He has climbed to this high point in human form, and from ancient times to the present, there can be no weakling among them.

Such rulers, with their intense desire for conquest, are the most dangerous.

Once the enemy has absorbed the borders of Hell, they will set their sights on Hell when they expand again.

So who will Matthew target?

Anyone who isn't an idiot would immediately realize that those who would target the lower-middle tier of the demon lords would naturally include Satanish.

However, his words did not elicit any agreement from the other demon lords.

Instead, each person had their own thoughts and did not show hostility or goodwill.

Seeing that the other demon lords remained silent, Satanish's face turned ugly, which made him even uglier.

Fortunately, from the demons' perspective, there is no such thing as aesthetics; all they care about is power, and appearance is just a trivial matter.

"So what do you want to do? Go to war with that human?"

Mephisto spoke, looking at Satanish with a surprisingly kind tone.

His relationship with Satanish is somewhat complicated.

Both are powerful demons who control their own independent dimensions of hell, and are not in a superior-subordinate relationship.

The two are political allies who coexist in competition and cooperation.

Mephisto frequently used Satanish as a pawn.

Satanish, with his relatively straightforward personality and power leaning towards physical destruction, was constantly constrained by Mephisto's strategies.

Without trust, one might betray the other at any time for their own benefit.

To put it bluntly, they are brothers on the surface, but often betray each other in secret. This is a classic portrayal of the relationships between the various demon lords in Hell.

“Mephisto, I remember that you had a conflict with that human before. Why don’t we drive him away together?” Satanish suggested to Mephisto.

Mephisto rolled his eyes inwardly.

Goodness, that's a brilliant suggestion. Don't do it again next time.

Seeing that the demon lords, though harboring different thoughts, were not generally hostile, Mephisto bluntly stated, "That human is backed by the entire Earth Mage Alliance."

"The Ancient One, the Sorcerer Supreme, is his direct supporter. If we go to war with him, it will inevitably lead to the Ancient One's death. I don't want to be enemies with that woman."

Mephisto's choice of words was very deliberate.

The demon lords were unaware of his deal with Matthew, and he wouldn't reveal it, so he found the most suitable excuse.

And this reason is perfectly valid.

All the lords present were well aware of the Sorcerer Alliance on Earth and the Ancient One, the Sorcerer Supreme, especially the latter's formidable nature.

That was a formidable opponent like Dormammu, the ruler of the Dark Dimension.

This old woman has no concept of dimensional suppression whatsoever.

With the Eye of Agomo and an extremely powerful reserve of magical knowledge, this old woman truly has the ability to fight her way into Hell.

Although they might have a home-field advantage, that woman possesses the Eye of Agamotto, a divine artifact.

Chapter 311 War Against the Human Emperor? Not Afraid of the Ancient One and Odin? (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

If a real fight breaks out, perhaps only a few of them will be confident of a draw.

Yes, it was just a draw, not a victory.

Everyone here knows what's going on.

This powerful mage, renowned throughout the entire universe, was someone even these demon lords couldn't confidently claim they could kill.

Mephisto brought out the Ancient One, and Satanish shut up.

Clearly, this kind of demon lord is countered by the ancient one, who is at the pinnacle of magic.

He didn't want to experience the frustration of having energy he couldn't use.

He could only say, with a wronged expression, "So you're going to let that human control the borders of Hell? Aren't you afraid those damned bastards in Heaven will laugh at us?"

"His ability to seize control of the borders of Hell is due to his own power. We all know that Hell is a place where the strong prey on the weak. If you have any ideas, you can start a war at any time. But don't forget that he is much stronger than Velasco."

Lilith spoke.

Her voice was gentle and charming, and her attitude was equally clear in her support of Mephisto.

As an ally of Mephisto, their supportive stance is unlikely to raise much suspicion.

"And perhaps I should remind you again, don't forget Asgard."

Lilith added another sentence.

This last sentence stirred something in the minds of all the demon lords.

They couldn't help but look at Lilith, with an expression that said, "What the hell are you talking about? Why did you suddenly bring up Asgard?"

Lilith remained outwardly calm, but inwardly she was secretly amused.

She's just making empty threats; she has no idea what Asgard's attitude is.

But as long as the story is plausible, she bet these guys won't suspect anything.

"Earth is one of the Nine Realms, originally belonging to the territory ruled by Asgard. But now Asgard is old, and you think that a ruler with unlimited potential for human civilization has been born in his territory."

"Do you think he will eliminate this ruler, or will he form an alliance?"

Lilith didn't reveal everything, but the other demon lords had already pieced together the rest of the story from her words.

If you put yourself in their shoes a little, that's indeed the case.

The lords all know Asgard. In recent years, as Odin, the king of the gods, has become more low-key, Asgard no longer conquers and beats everything as it did at the beginning.

But that doesn't mean Odin has been forgotten.

In fact, there are lords in Hell who have suffered at Odin's hands.

First and foremost is Mephisto, that restless fellow who once attempted to disrupt the order of the Nine Realms when Odin entered Odin's Sleep.

The two had a one-on-one fight, and then he got completely crushed, literally crushed.

Mephisto, the hammer-wielding warrior, fled back to Hell in a sorry state.

Odin also clashed with Dormammu multiple times, so the seemingly low-key Asgard was actually anything but low-key.

At least among their level, no one dares to underestimate Odin.

The question is, would someone as powerful as Odin form an alliance with that human emperor?

The possibility is quite high.

The lords all have their own intelligence networks and are well aware of the current state of Asgard, which, to put it nicely, is still a renowned and powerful nation in the universe.

But all of this depends entirely on Odin's own power.

As for the military?

What is that thing?

At this high latitude, the Asgardian army has no chance of causing any trouble.

Aside from Odin, only Odin's wife Frigga is somewhat worth considering.

Queen Frigg of Asgard is the most powerful mage in Asgard.

She is the goddess of magic of the Vanir gods, proficient in ancient Norse witchcraft, and wields the power of love and magic. She can even be considered the founder of the Asgardian magic system.

Unfortunately, while Frigga's combat strength is decent, it is far from reaching the level of a lord.

That leaves only Odin's two sons, Thor and Loki.

Without a doubt, the Thor and Loki brothers have outstanding potential, but with such extraordinary birth, they need a lot of time to hone their skills and grow.

Which of these lords didn't take more than ten thousand years to grow in power?

Therefore, it is clear that if Odin were to fall prematurely, Asgard's overall strength would decline rapidly, and it would be impossible to return to the level of Odin's reign in a short period of time.

Any demon lord could easily guess that Asgard was in trouble.

Putting everything else aside, just consider Odin personally sealing and banishing his eldest daughter, Hela, the goddess of death. Once Asgard loses Odin's divine power to maintain the unsealing, what will become of it?

And will Asgard let this opportunity pass by, given the various large and small civilizations it offended during its conquest of the universe?

It's a simple and easy-to-understand truth: when a giant is weak, he will inevitably attract the gazes of countless greedy hyenas.

If you survive it, all will be well; but if you don't, you'll be torn to shreds by the hyenas that pounce on you.

Odin was indeed powerful, but he was powerless to do anything about it and could not stop it.

Asgard has no allies.

But things are different now. A human emperor has suddenly appeared in his territory. Would Odin let this opportunity pass by?

Shouldn't we offer goodwill before the other party grows up?

When that human emperor grows up, he will surely reward him. As long as he protects Thor and Loki until they grow up, Asgard will once again reach its peak.

After doing this simple calculation, the demon lords couldn't help but gasp in shock.

Good heavens, it turns out that the human was backed by the Ancient One, the Sorcerer Supreme, and Odin, the King of the Gods.

The latter, in particular, is in a state where it could fall at any moment.

If the other side comes knocking on our door, they might just come at us with the intention of taking us both down.

This kind of death is the greatest act of kindness towards that human being.

The demon lords, who had previously harbored some ulterior motives, now cast benevolent glances at Lilith.

This female, no, the Queen of Hell, is quite impressive.

This kind of wisdom qualifies one to participate in this conference.

"Ahem, now we can vote. I agree that the human should join the Hell family." Lucifer raised his hand, looking like everyone was a good brother.

"Agreed."

"Agreed."

"Agreed."

The other demon lords also cast their votes in favor, and even Satanish, with a sly grin, said, "Perhaps we can invite that human to join this council."

"We can ask him to contribute to the fight against Heaven in the future."

Satan Nish gives himself a thumbs up for his amazing wisdom.

By bringing that human into this circle, I believe that even if that human has any ulterior motives in the future, they will definitely feel embarrassed to target him.

If all else fails, we can cooperate.

No matter how big the matter, we're all good brothers and good allies.

"We can talk about that later. We can wait until he has completely secured the borders of Hell before we make contact with him."

After pretending to think for a moment, Mephisto said something lightly.

The other demon lords nodded in agreement.

Thus, under the guidance of Mephisto and Lilith, the council successfully eliminated hostility towards Matthew.
