Shadow Trails in Azeroth

The relationship between Hela and Odin is very complicated.

What is certain is that it is definitely not simple hatred or hostility aimed at death. There is a deeper reason hidden under the surface hatred value.

If Blake could sum it up, it would be a story of "hate out of love".

Of course, the love here is respect and love, so don’t think too much about it.

It was a story about a simple, foolish and loyal girl who was severely betrayed by the man she admired most as her father. It was precisely because she had feelings for him that after being betrayed, Hela's attitude towards Odin suddenly changed. A big turn.

How grand I admired before, how crazy I hate now.

But it is precisely because of this complex emotion that can illustrate the importance of Odin to Hela. Everything this poor crazy woman did was to get revenge on Odin.

She has far less complicated reasons, and has little interest in the nature of the world. She is a pure Avenger.

That's why Hela suddenly became so decadent after Odin disappeared.

She had lost her only goal in life, and was like a ship lost on the sea. She didn't know where to go or what to do, so she could only wander in place clumsily and confused.

She needs an enemy to guide her out-of-control life, so when Black appears, Hela will be so "ecstatic".

On the gloomy beach, a bonfire was lit.

Hela, wearing a big cloak, sat curled up by the fire.

She looked blankly at the burning flames in front of her, and behind her, Sephiel was holding a comb and scissors left by a little star to fix the hair of the sea witch, whose hair was as messy as a wild man's.

Hela, who was transformed into a sea witch by pirates, was a short vrykul.

Of course, this short person was compared with other shield maidens. Her height still exceeded two and a half meters, and she was strong and strong. The great human emperor Varian Wrynn looked like a dwarf in front of her.

And after Hela's rough big face was reduced in proportion, it actually still had a "delicate" feeling.

Of course, this kind of refinement is also a conclusion drawn from comparison with other Vrykul. From a human perspective, this face still has the roughness and boldness that a Vrykul should have.

Blake sat on the rotten wood beside the campfire, holding a bottle of wine in his hand and savoring it. He glanced at Hela, whose eyes were dull, and said somewhat depressedly:

"I thought you would be more happy or crazy when you learned that Odin was still alive. Is this the result?"

"Don't talk, I want to be quiet."

Hela hugged her knees, showing a rare sense of cowardice in the firelight.

Of course, this is because Lord Evil God helped Hela repair her abnormal brain when he was throwing out the super sheep-changing technique. Lord Evil God declared that the operation was very successful.

The patient has gone from a psychopath to a lunatic.

"I ask again, do you want to know where he is now?"

Blake curled his lips and said something.

Hela's eyes moved, instinctively gleaming with anger and hatred, but then the intense light dissipated a little, turned into a trace of hesitation, and finally returned to the anger with clenched fists.

In the sound of her long black hair being cut off by Sephiel, she said hoarsely:

"Of course! I want to know, I want to find him, I want to strangle him! Does he think running away like a coward can offset the evil things he did to me in the past?

I have been preparing for this feast of resistance and revenge for hundreds of thousands of years, and now only the last ending is left.

I want to finish it with my own hands!

I want

I want to hear him say that apology, and then I will crush him to death! "

"She is indeed a crazy woman, but with all due respect, such revenge is too low-level."

Blake's smile reflected in the firelight was particularly evil, which made Sephiel, who was trimming Hela's hair, shudder. She knew that her husband was preparing another evil plan.

He took a sip of wine and said to Hela like a spiritual mentor:

"Look, let me analyze it for you. Just take it as a joke and don't take it seriously.

First of all, you have to make it clear that your purpose of revenge is simply to kill Odin? Or do you want him to bear and understand the pain you suffered? Do you want him to be completely desperate and just want to die? Or should he take his last breath with difficulty in his endless pain and loss?

The target of your vengeance is undoubtedly Chaos, Hela.

Of course, this is also because your previous mental state was very chaotic and you were unable to think sharply. This is not your fault, but now with my 'wonderful rejuvenation', you have got a good opportunity.

I mean, you can revise your revenge plan. "

These words made Hela blink.

She knew Blackshaw was up to no good, but she really needed to revise that messed up plan after wisdom returned, and the pirate's words gave her a new direction.

Blake grinned as Hela started to think.

He was never afraid of his enemy being difficult or cunning, he was just afraid that the opponent would be a monster that couldn't think, which would mean that he would lose his sharpest weapon.

language

Not just lies, but also kind guidance and hope.

For a time, others called Black the Demon of Hope, well, the good times are back.

A few seconds later, in the dancing flames, Hela whispered:

"You are right, a clean death is too cheap for him. I want him to feel my pain. I want him to suffer in despair and finally beg me to grant him a death!"

"Great! This is the mentality an Avenger should have, but do you have a plan?"

Blake asked again.

Hela thought for a while and said:

"I will find him, I will not move him first, but I will kill the people around him one by one, filling his heart with fear and finally defeating him and turning him into a shameful coward."

"You can't do it!"

Blake shook his head and said:

"I want to tell you that Odin has changed a lot now, but the bravery and unyielding nature still exist in his heart. Trying to crush him in this way is simply impossible.

And this method is too low-level.

Seeing as I've worked for you before and you gave me a generous 'compensation' when I left, do you want to take my advice? "

The pirate took out a bottle of the vrykul's favorite liquor and handed it to Hela.

The latter instinctively wanted to refuse. As the twisted Queen of Hades, she had no sense of taste or smell, otherwise she would not have lived in the garbage dump-like place of Hades.

But in the next moment, Hela suddenly realized that she had been changed into a flesh and blood body, and those things that had been taken away had been returned, and fresh life, fresh time and life were already in her hands.

Showing a sense of urgency, she took the wine from Blake's hand, unscrewed the cork, and took a sip. She didn't care at all that this heroic action made her body covered with a cape leak out.

Lord Evil God didn't look sideways, acting like a humble gentleman, but wow, the Vrykul women's dumplings were really terrifying in size. They could probably kill a dwarf, right?

He is indeed a half-giant.

"Ahem"

He hadn't tasted wine for hundreds of thousands of years, and the strongest wine came to him as soon as he got his hands on it. The liquid entered his throat like fire and flowed through his intestines, making Hela cough weakly.

She coughed until tears welled up in her eyes, but she couldn't let go of the strange and touching taste in her hands.

Even though it was only her life form that was changed, she still possesses the power of the Death Demigod, but power is one thing, and experience is another.

"explain."

Hela sipped the strong wine and said something to Blake.

Lord Evil God laughed and said in a long voice:

"You know, if you want to deal with a tough guy like Odin, you can't do it head-on. Whether it's swords, guns, swords or halberds, or poisonous curses, those things not only won't scare him, but will also inspire him with endless courage.

After all, you should know better than I do that the Lord of War always loves war.

That was his domain and he would not lose the war.

In this way, all your plans will actually fail from the beginning.

If you want to win, if you want to let Odin feel the pain of being in Odin's shoes, you have to change your thinking. Let me ask you, what is the most shocking thing in this world? It makes brave warriors willingly become cowards. The decrepit old man clung to the weapon again unwilling to be left out, which allowed the good guys to ignore life and death just for what they wanted in their hearts.

That thing can turn the world upside down, make order unbalanced, and make life and death dim.

It can cause world-ending disasters and remedy the joys and sorrows of life. It can shape changes in history and endure vicissitudes of life. "

"strength!"

Hela immediately answered:

"Only pure power in this world can do this. If I had a great godhead like you, I could easily play Odin to death!"

"boom"

The pirate's sword struck the sea witch on the forehead mercilessly. He corrected himself:

"Wrong! It's love"

"Shua"

Sephiel was so shocked that he knocked the scissors and comb from his hands to the ground.

She stared dumbfounded at her husband who was bewitching Hela. At this moment, she really thought that Blake deserved death. This guy, how could he say such shameless words with such a straight face?

"Damn it!"

Hela also understood.

She glared at Blake and grabbed the bottle of liquor in her hand like a war hammer, looking like she was about to pounce and give the dirty bastard a bottle.

"Shut up! Dirty evil god, how dare you say such a thing?"

"Why can't I say it?"

Blake snorted, spread his hands without fear and said:

"As long as you read more books, you should know that what I say is true. When facing a strong man like Odin, you have to play dirty. Come, let me outline your revenge process for you.

It should be like this.

The great Odin got acquainted with a beautiful and alluring Vrykul noblewoman during an adventure. As a young man, he was fascinated to death by her mature charm.

He was like an aggressive bulldog being toyed with by the noble lady, and wherever she pointed her finger, Odin would rush towards him madly.

He can fight with anyone for the love in his heart, and he can destroy his own foundation with his own hands just for the beauty of a smile.

The lady who is good at people's hearts will guide him to destroy his once great wishes bit by bit, and will use desire to tempt him to insert a weapon into the heart of his former brother.

He will be lost in a beautiful dream in the name of love, and he will think that he has got everything, and then at the last moment, he will be severely betrayed by the woman he loves deeply!

It was like a hot knife inserted into his heart, making him open his eyes to see the cruel truth.

His great goal has been pushed back by his own hands, his brothers were crushed to death by his own hands, his family fell apart, and his world no longer had any light.

And the only thing he has.

That noble lady was just a fantasy in the name of revenge. What was even more frightening was that the woman who destroyed everything for him was a relative that he should have protected with all his heart, but she suffered despair.

He was desperate, in every sense of the word.

He began to think about life, but his brain certainly could not reach any conclusion.

He humbly lowered his head and knelt in front of you, only begging you not to leave him.

But you will reject him severely, humiliate him, and not even kill him. Instead, in the joy of successful revenge, you will watch with your own eyes as he is tortured by pain and despair until he becomes inhuman.

Perhaps in a cold windy night, he would end his life like a coward.

And you

You will get everything you desire, a soul captured by you, a myth destroyed by you, and a hearty revenge. "

A sea breeze blew across the beach in the afternoon, making the bonfire roar. The blowing sea breeze tightened the cloak, letting the cut hair fly in the wind.

With a weird smile, Blake took out a mirror and put it in front of Hela's eyes, letting her see her current appearance.

He whispered like a devil:

"How about it? Is this look enough to take down Odin?"

Hela looked at herself in the mirror. Her black bangs, neatly trimmed by Sephiel, hung in front of her forehead. Her loose black hair hung on her shoulders. A fire was burning in her eyes in the mirror.

She didn't dare to look directly into those eyes, so she looked down at the flesh and blood body in the cloak.

When the super sheep transformation technique thrown by Blake took effect, Hela's body was reshaped according to Heya's body in memory. Although such a body is too thick for humans, in the eyes of Vrykul men, it is healthy and powerful. The posture is the sexiest look.

"No, I can't do it!"

Hela pushed the mirror away. She gritted her teeth and wanted to explain, but Blake squinted at her and said:

“This is just revenge, it’s all a disguise.

For revenge, you can even cooperate with bastards like Zoval and Denathrius. For revenge, you can even overturn the order of life and death with your own hands.

In order to take revenge you turned yourself into a monster.

My poor Hela, are you cowardly?

Or have you forgiven Odin for causing you such misery?

If you are no longer an Avenger, then consider my trip here for free. "

"you"

Hela was extremely conflicted at this moment.

She felt that her brain was about to boil, so she forced herself to calm down, and instead of talking about the problem, she turned to look at Blake.

She said with a serious face:

"What do you want from me?"

"clever."

Blake snapped his fingers and said without politeness:

"The River Styx. To be precise, Gorgea Soul-Gathering River, Zoval no longer needs you to transport souls, but as far as I know, he still allows you to travel freely between the Shadow Realm and the material world in that river.

You see, I am a pirate, and I long to swim in every sea and every river in the world.

do you understand me? "

Hela's eyes shrank, and she exclaimed:

"You are the guy who joined forces with them, and you want to betray them."

"Shh!"

Blake reached out and placed his hand on Hela's plump lips.

He stroked Hela's big head as if comforting a little girl, and said softly:

"What I want to do has nothing to do with you. You just need to do your own thing. You just need to carry out your revenge. What does other things have to do with you?

Have Zoval and Denathrius been kind to you?

Are you willing to offend me for them?

Or are you willing to give up your hatred of Odin for their ridiculous greatness? "

The evil god coughed and stretched out his hands in front of Hela. In his left hand was a piece of paper with Odin's message written on it, and in his right hand was a crescent dagger shaped by moonlight.

He said:

"So, do you want to be my friend or my enemy?"

The goddess of death looked at the two things in her hands. She grabbed the note in her hand with almost no hesitation, and then waved a pale rune and threw it to Blake.

explain:

"It belongs to you, my death fleet, my hell army, everything I have belongs to you. Stop bothering me and tell them that Hela is dead.

So be it. "

After saying that, Hela stood up, put on her cloak and was about to leave, but was stopped by Sephiel with her hand.

She looked at Blake in confusion, who shook his head and said:

"This is how you plan to carry out revenge? No, you are far from it. You don't even know how to seduce a man. Do you really want to fight Odin to make him fall in love with you?

No, no, my poor child, my poor collaborator.

You need training, no doubt about it.

Fortunately"

A shadow gathered behind Black to form the charming Xalatath. The lamia didn't care about Hela's gaze and lowered her head to kiss Black passionately. Her seductive gesture made Hela look straight in the eye.

A few seconds later, the lamia wrapped itself in the little master's arms, took the pirate's hand and put it into her clothes.

She glanced at Hela, seemingly desperate for the "student's" situation, and said in a long voice:

"Class starts tonight. My sister will teach you how to capture a man's heart. You are not allowed to die until you leave. Also, the name Hela is not good. Please change it.

From today on, you are called

Frigga. "
