Although Odin's injuries were rapidly healing, this didn't mean he immediately turned the tide.
In fact, Odin not only failed to regain control but was even pressured by Hela! That's right! Odin was directly suppressed by Hela's fierce onslaught...
As the saying goes, every disadvantage of yours is an advantage for me!
Odin could rely on his connection to Asgard, drawing on its origin power to heal his injuries.
Hela could also rely on her connection to Asgard, drawing on its origin power to increase her strength!
Both were Skyfather Level, and the speed and energy of their simultaneous absorption of Asgard's origin power were constant.
It's like connecting two identical-sized faucets to the same water pipe; even if both valves are fully open, the water flow will still be the same. With one diminishing and the other growing, plus Odin's strength having peaked and unable to increase further, while Hela was rapidly drawing power and growing stronger.
Odin quickly recovered from his injuries, but he directly lost the initiative in the battle.
Furthermore, for thousands of years, Hela had been fantasizing about revenge and diligently training for it, while Odin had spent those thousands of years recuperating, and his body was deteriorating.
As time passed and Hela absorbed more and more of Asgard's origin power, her strength grew stronger and stronger.
Odin began to fall into a disadvantage...
"Tsk."
"As expected of a 'ruthless father and fierce daughter' who understand each other."
"Hela knows Odin's weaknesses, and Odin knows Hela's attack habits."
"If it weren't for Odin reaching his strength bottleneck and Hela constantly absorbing energy to improve, these two really couldn't have fought so 'evenly matched.'"
"However, as Hela absorbs more and more energy, her strength also grows higher and higher."
"As the saying goes, long defense leads to loss. If Odin doesn't... come up with a plan soon, he might just meet his end here today."
Michael, however... watched with keen interest, even having the leisure to materialize a 'melon-eating' combo, munching on popcorn and sipping a 'happy house-husband's' drink, all while commenting...
In fact, not only did Michael see the situation, but Odin himself was also well aware of it.
"No!"
"Hela, having already ascended to Skyfather Level, can no longer be restrained by ordinary means!"
"Moreover, Hela, having returned to Asgard, can now constantly draw on Asgard's origin power."
"Her strength is skyrocketing too rapidly; I must resort to unconventional methods!"
Unleashing a burst of energy, Odin forced Hela back, then instantly took a large leap backward, creating distance between himself and Hela...
"Hehe."
"What's wrong?"
"Can't keep up?"
"He's running away!"
"The renowned 'benevolent and kind Lord of the Nine Realms' is turning into a deserter!"
After being forced back by Odin's burst of power, Hela didn't immediately pursue him.
To be honest, her relentless attacks had left Hela somewhat fatigued.
Especially since as Hela became familiar with Odin, Odin also became familiar with Hela's attack methods.
Although Hela knew that Odin's power surge, which forced her back, meant he was about to use a trump card, Hela wasn't intimidated at all; with the Soul Stone in hand, what did she have to fear? It was the perfect opportunity for Hela to catch her breath and rest for a moment.
Of course, Hela wouldn't hold back her words when it came to the 'fleeing' Odin.
"Look!"
"This is your brilliant decision to retreat into the Nine Realms and cease expansion!"
Pointing at the post-war ruins, full of rubble and broken walls, Hela's mockery of Odin was absolutely unambiguous... "Who is that?"
"I don't know..."
"So powerful, she can actually fight the All-Father to a standstill..."
"Asgard actually has such a powerful enemy! How terrifying!!"
The powerful energy fluctuations from Hela and Odin's battle naturally attracted all the Asgardian warriors who could still move.
However, after seeing Hela, who was fighting Odin and even suppressing him, the warriors whispered amongst themselves, their hearts filled with unease.
But... one person, looking at Hela's relentless mockery of Odin, frowned deeply.
"Could she be... Hela, sealed by Odin?"
Frigga's eyes were filled with worry.
