Chapter 344 Are you the God of Death, or the God of Asgard?
"I now think you resemble not only the young Odin, but also the hypocritical old Odin!"
Toby was speechless in the face of Hela's blatant mockery.
He finally understood why Odin said Hela was extreme; her views on her employees were quite extreme.
The hierarchy was even more pronounced than his.
They don't even treat people like human beings...
Fortunately, Toby wanted this extreme side of her.
Toby shook his head: "No, I've already arranged for people to manage the survivors' side. I don't need you to cause trouble anymore. What I need you to do is what you do best and what you like best..."
"That is... conquering the universe!"
Upon hearing the words "conquering the universe," Hela's heart skipped a beat.
That's the beating of your heart!
But immediately, Hela's face fell again. She looked at her hands and said forlornly:
"But this Asgard of the universe was destroyed because of another version of myself. My divine power was already bound to the origin of Asgard. With the destruction of Asgard, I have lost that invincible divine power to conquer the universe..."
Upon hearing this, it was Toby's turn to look disdainful. He snatched the glass of wine from Hela's hand, which she hadn't yet taken a sip from, and said mockingly:
"Oh? So you're the god of Asgard after all. I thought you were the god of death. If you can only conquer the universe by relying on Asgard, then I think our cooperation should end here. I don't cooperate with trash!"
Provoked by this, Hela glared at Toby with a defiant look on her face, gritting her teeth:
"You ignorant idiot, you have no idea how much I sacrificed to gain Asgard's approval!"
"I have conquered countless cosmic empires, and half of Asgard's current glory is thanks to me. The fundamental bond with Asgard was something I fought for myself. I am the Goddess of Death personally recognized by this divine continent of Asgard!"
Faced with Hela's rebuttal, Toby simply said, "Oh, so how did you conquer those cosmic empires before you bound yourself to the power of Asgard?"
"Of course, it was me who led my army of the undead, fighting my way through with sword by sword. I am the great goddess revered by the universe as the Goddess of Death..." Hela paused, then suddenly looked down at the walking corpses on the street below.
Toby handed the glass of wine back to Hela, smiling. "You realize it now, right? This place is practically paradise for you!"
"No matter how strong Asgardian power is, it is still Asgardian power, which can be taken from you by someone; it is not yours!"
"Only the death power you were born with is truly your own. Your decision to bind your authority over death to the very essence of Asgard was an utterly foolish act!"
"You are the god of death, not the god of Asgard. The power of death is the power you should truly cherish!"
"And today, your chance to choose the right path again has arrived. The billions of dead on this planet are enough for you to regain your divine power of death, even surpassing your former self, until... you surpass Odin with your own power!"
"So, you want to use your own efforts to surprise Odin when you return to your own universe?"
"Hela, the Goddess of Death!"
As Toby addressed her one last time, Hela's heart pounded to its limit, her breathing became heavy, and her eyes burned with fervor, as if she could already see Odin's utterly astonished expression when she returned in her prime!
Glug glug glug——————
Bang!
The next moment, Hela snatched the wine glass from Toby's hand, drank it all in one gulp, and smashed the glass on the ground!
"I am Hela, the Goddess of Death! I will begin from this planet and conquer this vast universe. I will rebuild Asgard in this universe, a First Empire of the Universe, countless times more glorious than Odin's Asgard!"
Hela gazed at the sky above, her every word brimming with the domineering aura of a queen. Even the sun seemed to dim slightly in response to her ambition.
"Excellent, very energetic, this is the kind of partner I want!" Toby clapped and exclaimed in admiration.
It has to be said that Hela is far superior to Thor and Loki in terms of spirit, strength, and leadership.
If this older sister hadn't been sealed away by Odin in the original story, but had successfully ascended the throne of Asgard, Thanos probably wouldn't have dared to provoke Asgard, let alone massacre the civilians on the Asgardian fleet!
Because given Hela's personality, she really will chase you to the ends of the earth!
Having regained her regal bearing and confidence, Hela also became shrewd again, and said leisurely:
"Partner, I agreed to your conditions. Now shouldn't you also fulfill the other reward you promised me—that embarrassing revelation about Odin!"
Hela's eyes were burning with curiosity, her inner gossip raging!
No woman is immune to gossip, not even Hela, the goddess of death!
What's more, that gossip is also related to the fact that she was sealed away by Odin for more than a thousand years!
"Okay, come on, let's sit down and talk." Toby nodded and sat down on the edge of the balcony, hundreds of meters above the ground below.
Seeing this, Hela showed no fear and sat down on the edge as well.
Although she needs to rebuild her Death God Power, with her physique, even if she falls from here, it will only hurt a little, and she will definitely not die.
You should know that the way she arrived on this planet was by falling from a height of thousands of meters.
"Would you like to hear the spoken version, or watch it on screen yourself?" Toby asked.
Hela was taken aback: "You can still see images?"
Toby shrugged: "That's right, but the scene wasn't what I saw with my own eyes; it was a simulation based on what I knew."
"You're quite honest..." Hela's lips twitched. "Then let's stick with the oral version. I don't like those fake things!"
Toby naturally had no objection to this, and then asked casually, "Would you like to hear the details, or would you like to keep it brief?"
Hela's forehead was already creased with exasperation. She gritted her teeth and said, "You bastard, are you ever going to stop? Get to the point! I want to hear the crucial part!"
"Oh." Toby nodded and quickly continued, "To make a long story short, your father was lured away by a group of cosmic thugs. They carved out a territory for him that he couldn't leave—the Nine Realms. If you Asgardians dare to venture beyond the Nine Realms again, they'll come back to your home and slaughter your entire family!"
