"You've killed me!"

When escorted by the Heavenly Hammer Venerable to the army of his Bone Legion, Hela, who had just escaped death, complained to the King of Vanity in her inner world:

"Skati won't just let me go!"

"Well, look at what you said, little Hela."

To this childlike concern of the goddess of death, Merlin replied slowly:

"It's really like a typical thing that children would say, both timid and cowardly, it seems that the time gem's seal on you is really all-round, where did the courage to slaughter the entire Golden Palace go just for the will of the king?"

"This time and that time!"

Little Hella pursed her lips and said:

"At that time I had strength, I was not afraid of anything, but now I don't."

"Now I'm just a weak kid who can be sent away! Now is not the time to come out stronger! It's all your fault! You bastard. ”

"Hey! I just saved you. ”

Merlin Says:

"I also helped you fulfill your wish, and that's how you thank me? Since you don't need it, then I'll take the Heavenly Hammer Venerable? ”

"No, so be it."

Little Hela glanced back at Orm, the Seabreaker behind her, and the 8-year-old's face flashed with a hint of adult worry, and she said:

"Since I've come to this point, I can only go all the way with you to the dark, but that big snake?"

"You don't know him?"

Merlin asked rhetorically in surprise:

"He's your father's older brother, and you claim to be Odin's first child, so you must have heard some stories about him, right? What are the clues? ”

"Not at all."

Walking along the frozen forest in the night, Hela shook her head, a hint of sarcasm in her eyes.

She replied:

"Obviously, I'm not the first family member to be erased by Odin."

"Presumably with the experience of blocking the Great Serpent in the past, so the God King already has enough experience to deal with the betrayal I initiated."

"Less than a month after my defeat, all information about me disappeared in Asgard, as if it had been wiped out with a rag."

"Well, Odin's housework is as thrilling as ever."

The King of Vain whispered:

"About the Great Serpent, it's basically the same information I just told Scati, he was sealed on Earth like you, but he is worse than you, and he is on the verge of eternal death."

"If Surtr really destroys the Divine Domain World, you may be seriously injured, but there is a high probability that the Great Snake will die."

"When I say 'death,' I mean the kind of real death, the kind that disappears forever."

"So whatever he really thinks, at least when it comes to Ragnarok, you can trust him as much as you trust me."

"I don't believe you at all, okay?"

Little Hela scratched her balls, and she complained:

"Don't think you've earned my trust, the things you're doing now will only make me more wary of you!"

"Good, great."

Merlin smiled and said:

"Keep it that way, as I said, 'trust' the serpent as you trust me."

Hela's expression changed.

She understood what Merlin meant, and the King of Vanities was telling her that the serpent that had suddenly appeared was not to be trusted.

This made little Hela feel angry.

The Vain King, who plays Santa Claus in front of her eyes, is obviously the kind of character who is scheming and has to make several detours when he says a word.

If it is in her heyday, she is not afraid to deal with such a character, strength is confidence.

But now, she is at the weakest point of her life, and she has no confidence.

Just messing up with dangerous people, and according to the current situation, the two sides have been completely tied together, which makes Hela very worried in her heart.

Her little brain was thinking.

What does he mean to the King of Vainglory?

Are you a collaborator? Or friends?

Is it the kind of friend who can trust each other's fate? Or is it the kind of 'friend' who can be thrown out as a victim at a critical moment?

Her mental activity was not hidden from Merlin at all.

The power of vanity exists in the body of little Hela, like the best listener, projecting Hela's mind in Merlin's mind as it is.

So a few seconds later, he replied:

"It's the latter one."

"Huh?"

Hela let out a confused nasal voice.

Merlin explains:

"I mean, we're collaborators now."

"Hela, but if you don't do what I say, if you can't do what I want to do, then at the critical moment, like you just thought, I'll throw you out!"

"You're bullying me!"

Little Hela felt a knot in her heart, and she screamed like a real child:

"Why don't you go and play with Scati with your intrigues? You just think I'm better to bully! You bastard! ”

"That's a good point."

There was a round of applause in Hela's heart.

Obviously, her rebuke did not put the ruthless Merlin to shame, and the latter did not even change the voice of his voice, and even added a touch of pleasure and joy to it.

It's like those weird uncles who bully helpless little girls.

In Hela's inner grievances, Merlin said:

"Don't be so pessimistic, you've done pretty well so far, Hela."

"I mean, you keep going, maybe our relationship will turn to the better side."

"It's you who led the Dark Coalition to take over your hometown, and you mingled with a group of dangerous people who cannibalistic people and don't spit out bones, trying to use their power to murder your own father."

"It's also your desire to return to Asgard, to regain your power, and the legions that accompanied you in the Realms."

"You're a bad girl, Hela."

"I'm just reminding you in my own way that when you're having fun with a bunch of bad guys, you should have the awareness of being used as a gunman by them in advance, being used, and then being ruthlessly abandoned."

The King of Vain said slowly:

"You hope that Scati will achieve what you want for you, but you yourself know that the heartless monster of indifference will eventually abandon you."

"You also saw just now, little Hela, after the appearance of the Heavenly Hammer Venerable, when you received new power support, after you became 'useful', after your 'value' increased, Scati's attitude towards you changed..."

"She's a pragmatist through and through, and the reality is incredible, and there's no 'affection' in her at all."

"If you're unlucky enough to fail, she'll stomp on your corpse and even use it as a weapon against Odin."

Merlin sighed, and he said:

"Don't tell me, you didn't feel the killing intent of the Winter Goddess just now, after Surtr's death, after you disobeyed her thoughts... She really thinks you're a liability, and she really wants to kill you! ”

"Surtr was killed by you! Not me! ”

Hela screamed:

"Don't put a black cauldron on my head, that thing has nothing to do with me!"

"Well, you really look like a child."

Merlin laughed, and he said:

"It's been this point, you're still struggling with this matter, I'm just letting you see the true face of Scati through this matter, and you can see it."

"To that evil spirit, no friendship, no agreement, no contract, she only has her goal in her eyes, defeat Asgard, kill Odin, and in order to achieve this goal, she can sacrifice everything."

"I'm that kind of person, too."

Hela pursed her lips and said:

"I don't think that's a mistake, you have to be ruthless if you want it to happen, Scati is just purer, even you... We are all those people who will do whatever it takes to achieve our ends. ”

"Even the threat of taking advantage of a cute little girl of 8 years old."

Hela complained:

"Do you really think in my heart you're more trustworthy than Scati? Don't be silly! You're two on the same page, and you're more dangerous, and Scati is more honest that she won't play these schemes. ”

"Hehe... It's a lot of resentment. ”

Merlin was amused by Hela's complaints, and said:

"Well, if you treat your current self as a harmless little girl, then I will accept your accusations. But you and I both know that you're not..."

"You're still a ruthless goddess of death at heart."

"I don't want to discuss these worthless things with you at the moment, girl, and I don't believe you have any grudges against Scati."

"The reason why I say so much to you is just to tell you that she is not the only one you have at your disposal right now."

Hela's big eyes blinked.

Does she really have no grudges against Scati?

How can it be!

As Merlin said, she was trapped in the temple by the black ice just now, and she really felt the killing intent surging in Skati's heart.

It's just because the more valuable Surtr died, and that was Surtr's own plan, but just because Hela was involved in this matter, and because Hela was now weaker and worthless.

So the demon planned to kill her on the spot to appease the servants of the Lord of Flames.

Damn it...

What did she think of the goddess of death?

Hela knew very well that the essence of Merlin's words was to sow discord and be very old-fashioned.

But the problem is that after seeing Scati's cold, winter-like mind, Hela's heart is shaken.

Just following Scati all the way to the dark doesn't seem to be very rational.

"She's not to be trusted! When I return to Asgard, when I have strength, when I am the goddess of death again! ”

Little Hela clenched her fists, and in this cold and gloomy forest, she said:

"Naturally, I won't have a relationship with Scati anymore, in fact, our agreement is only limited to that step, and after entering Asgard, I will have nothing to do with her!"

Hela said to Merlin:

"She's going to take me into Asgard soon, and at this juncture, you're making me betray her? You're just sending me to death. ”

"Who made you betray her?"

Merlin said helplessly:

"You little girl, don't think nonsense, don't be so strong in brain replenishment, I never let you betray her... Listen to me, what I let you do is simple. ”

The Vain King's tone became gloomy, and he whispered:

"As for me, I just need you to walk towards Scati at the right moment... A hard stab, it's so simple, that's all. ”

"Why would I do that?"

Hela sneered, and she said:

"Scati's goal is to kill Odin, and so is my goal!"

"Yes, but that's all you have in common."

Merlin Says:

"And after Odin's death?"

"What you want is the throne of Odin, and what you want is to rule your hometown and become the queen of the gods."

"But what about Scati? You've been messing around with her for so long, and she's sure to have told you countless times that she's going to kill Odin with you, but what about after that? ”

"Don't you wonder what Scati is going to do after Odin's death?"

The King of Vanities chuckled in a low voice:

"Do you really think that the feud between Scati and Odin is just driven by hatred? I think the Great Library of Asgard also contains records of such mysteries as ancient hoarfrost. ”

"I believe that it's impossible for you, as the goddess of death, not to know what White Frost has done in the stars."

"Hela, you thought that after Odin's death, you and Scati could go their separate ways and go their separate ways, but you were wrong, Odin's death was just the beginning."

Merlin Says:

"Let me tell you a secret that only I know, silly boy."

"Odin's death will open a door for Scati to become one with the Ancient Hoarfrost."

"She was born from the white frost, and what she wanted to do was definitely not just to kill an unlucky god king."

"Her freedom means that the entire World Tree Territory will usher in a complete Winter Era, and of course you will rule Asgard, and even the entire Nine Kingdoms."

"You will rule death, death in the truest sense of the word."

"You will be a queen in a winter of despair, sitting alone on the throne, without subjects, friends, enemies, goals, hope, despair."

"Even you will be the most beautiful statue of the queen under the wrought of the hoarfrost, and you will stay with the frozen corpses of your father, mother, and brothers, waiting for the next era of life to judge you."

"That's what hoarfrost will do to you and your world."

At this point, Merlin paused.

He looked at Hela, who was frowning, and said:

"You rebuked me and said that I was using you, yes, I was using you, Hela, but I was also saving you! Silly boy..."

"You should trust me more than an evil spirit that will bring about the end of all things."

"Why should I trust you?"

Hela asked rhetorically:

"This terrible accusation, you have to come up with evidence!"

"You don't have to believe me, I didn't think a few words to make me die for me, that's impossible, little Hela."

Merlin yawned, and he said in a languid tone:

"That's the best thing about the real world, when faced with something that you can't be sure of, that you're hard to decide, you can choose to take a gamble and put everything on your own, Stud."

"Either you win a lot or you lose everything."

Merlin burst out with a malicious laugh, and he said:

"You're the last one to die anyway. As for me, you see, I have nothing to lose. ”

"She promised to take you into Asgard, and I can easily grant this wish of yours, so choose her or me?"

"Think about it, little Hela."

"I'm waiting for your reply."
