American Comics: Borrowed Magic By Skill, Why Should I Return It?

Arriving at the Asgardian palace.

Odin, as always, sat on the throne.

It made Chu Xiu unable to help but suspect if this old man had the same problem as Thanos, being glued to his seat.

But soon enough,

Odin proved Chu Xiu's speculation wrong with facts.

He was not glued to his seat.

"You've come."

Odin slowly stood up.

Leaning on the Eternal Spear, he walked up to Chu Xiu.

Chu Xiu narrowed his eyes.

This old man had become stronger again.

Stronger than the last time they met - his aura had grown more powerful.

And this meant

"You're close to death?"

Chu Xiu asked.

"Mhm."

Odin nodded.

"I already know about Hela."

"You did well."

"Just as I said, she is a powerful warrior."

"As long as you can provide her with targets to conquer, she will remain loyal to you. You can rest assured of that."

Odin made a final guarantee of Hela's loyalty.

But Chu Xiu never doubted Hela in the first place.

After all, anyone could tell that Hela genuinely enjoyed fighting; she was a true war fanatic.

"Enough with the useless talk. You know why I'm here."

Chu Xiu didn't want to chat with Odin.

Even though, from a certain perspective, this old man could be considered his father-in-law.

But... who made his daughter not recognize him?

"Follow me."

Soon enough,

Chu Xiu, led by Odin, arrived at the Asgardian treasury.

"You can choose one thing from here."

Odin said to pick one thing.

In reality, he was asking Chu Xiu to choose from several divine artifacts.

"This is your Asgardian treasury?"

Chu Xiu was dumbfounded.

Odin spent a long time boasting about the treasures in the Asgardian vault.

But the collection inside was not as abundant as the artifacts in his holy place in New York.

Still choosing one?

There aren't many of you in total!

"This is just one part of the Asgardian vault."

"I have a vast collection, but the items stored here are the best exhibits."

Seeing that Chu Xiu was not very satisfied with his collection.

Odin frowned slightly and explained.

The general idea is...

Don't be fooled by the quantity, the items here are of the highest quality.

"Fine."

Chu Xiu looked around and examined the vault.

Inside, he recognized: the Infinity Gauntlet (right hand), the Tesseract, the Casket of Ancient Winters, and the Eternal Flame.

The rest were unfamiliar...

A large glass ball, a broken stone tablet, a sword, a horn, and a model of a ship.

"What are these?"

Chu Xiu looked disgusted.

Apart from the Tesseract, which is the Space Gem from the Infinity Gems and has some value, the rest are just worthless items.

Who knows if that Infinity Gauntlet is real or fake.

Chu Xiu remembered that in the movie Thor: Ragnarok, Hela had said that it was a fake.

"Maybe you should bring Hela here."

"She knows every item in this place and can give you better advice."

"???"

Just as Chu Xiu was puzzled by these worthless items.

Odin's words almost made Chu Xiu think that the old man had gone crazy.

"Odin, do you remember what you said before?"

Chu Xiu suspected that the old man had Alzheimer's.

Not letting Hela enter Asgard.

Wasn't that what you emphasized and instructed before?

How could you forget it yourself?

"Child."

"I want to see her."

Odin sighed and said slowly.

"You won't regret it."

Chu Xiu fell silent for a moment.

Summoning begins.

"I summon..."

When Chu Xiu left the Lingbo Prison.

Hela was preparing for an invasion of Lucifer's Hell.

Now that she received Chu Xiu's summoning request, she didn't know if it was because she was busy or for some other reason.

In any case, Chu Xiu finished reciting...

Hela still hadn't responded to the summoning.

"Maybe she's busy..."

Buzz———!

Just as Chu Xiu was about to explain.

A faint green crack appeared in the Immortal Food Treasury.

"Hela?"

"Father."

The scene of father and daughter recognizing each other.

It wasn't as gentle and filial as Chu Xiu had imagined.

Hela walked out of the crack and didn't immediately engage in a fight with Odin, but went straight to Chu Xiu's side.

A look that seemed to have fixed on Chu Xiu.

"Ah, Asgard, such a familiar taste."

When Hela set foot in Asgard.

It was like breaking free from shackles.

Her strength began to visibly rise at a rapid pace.

Chu Xiu absorbed Mephisto and the Spirit of Vengeance, barely surpassing Hela, but in just a short while, Hela completed a comeback, surpassing the threshold of Level God Father.

Or rather, she was always a god.

Now she has only regained her rightful power.

"This feeling..."

"It's as if we've returned to the time when we conquered the Nine Realms, right, Father."

...Flowers are requested...

Hela opened her eyes.

The true Crown Princess of Asgard, the true Goddess of Death, has returned.

Hela in a state of complete victory.

Standing once again on the land of Asgard.

Completing her dream that had lasted for thousands of years.

"I'm sorry, Hela, but that's something I had to do, the Asgard of the past."

"No longer able to withstand any more wars."

"What our people need is peace."

Odin sighed.

To explain one's past actions.

"Oh, it's this again."

Hela immediately wore an impatient expression and even looked to Chu Xiu for help.

"Daling, can I lead the army of the undead to invade Asgard?"

"Whatever."

"As long as you can defeat that old man."

0

Chu Xiu knew that Hela was just talking.

"Well then..."

Hela waved her hand and turned to Odin. "Don't worry, father, I won't forgive you, so you don't need to explain anything to me, and I don't care about those things either. By the way, I have to thank you for giving me such a good daling."

At the end of her words, Hela leaned into Chu Xiu's arms.

"???"

For the first time, Odin's one eye showed confusion.

He looked at Chu Xiu, his gaze filled with disbelief. What's going on with you, kid?

"Cough cough."

"Well then, Hela, help me see if there's anything worth taking here."

"Let's take a few more."

Chu Xiu quickly changed the subject.

After listening, Hela wandered around the Asgard treasury.

She walked to the side of the Infinity Gauntlet.

Sure enough, with a snap, Hela pushed the Infinity Gauntlet to the ground with a disgusted look on her face.

"A fake."

Odin's eyelid twitched.

He couldn't help but say, "This is real, it's just not embedded with the gems."

"It's useless."

Hela still ignored him.

She continued to overturn one collection after another.

As if seeking revenge on Odin, Hela threw Odin's treasures, one by one, onto the ground.

She only stopped when she saw that sword.

"This sword is called... Gram, it was my grandfather Bor's sword back then."

"The previous king of Asgard."

After Hela finished speaking, she picked up the sword and threw it to Chu Xiu amidst Odin's shocked gaze.

"Daling, catch."

"This is the first dowry my father prepared for me."

"Now, let me choose the second... one."
