"Damn it!"
"This lunatic!"
Hela, who had been watching quietly from the ground, her expression changed drastically. She couldn't help but curse inwardly.
The Nine Realms were interconnected.
In her mandatory history course, Hela had learned that the ancestors of Asgard had provided an extremely detailed explanation of the concept of the Nine Realms.
The Nine Realms, situated on the World Tree, were each independent worlds. However, the origins of these worlds were intricately linked. The destruction of any one world would have an immeasurable impact on the other eight.
Whether this impact would be positive or negative, no one knew. No one in the Nine Realms was willing to take that risk. But it was certain that the shockwaves from the destruction of one world would immediately plunge the other eight realms into turmoil and unrest.
Even Odin, the All-Father, who had single-handedly instigated the war for the Nine Realms, attempting to incorporate all nine into his dominion, had never considered destroying the world origins of the other eight realms besides Asgard.
But now, this golden-haired Saiyan from the Centaurus Galaxy was doing just that.
"Stop! Beckett!"
This time, Hela had to side with Malekith.
If the world core of Svartalfheim were destroyed, the entire Nine Realms would immediately fall into chaos. Even the homeland of Asgard, which was currently untouched by the flames of war, would not be spared.
Hela absolutely would not allow such a thing to happen.
She wanted to win this war, but that didn't mean she wanted to see her homeland affected.
"If Svartalfheim is destroyed, the entire Nine Realms will be affected!"
The not-yet-fully-matured Death Divinity erupted within Hela. The Asgardian divine power, amplified by the Death Divinity, increased severalfold, transforming into a shockwave of energy that attempted to block Beckett's attack.
Beside Hela was Malekith, who had also reacted swiftly.
A torrent of dark energy, mixed with Hela's Death Divinity, met Beckett's silvery-white energy beam in mid-air. Silent destruction quickly spread to every corner of Svartalfheim.
Dark Elf soldiers, Dark Elf people...
Everyone struggling in Svartalfheim turned to dust in the scattered residual energy.
Everything, as Beckett had said, returned to nothingness!
"What does the safety of the Nine Realms have to do with me!"
Beckett, floating in mid-air, continued to output energy. The figures of The Other and Woz kept appearing before his eyes.
"I don't belong to your world at all!"
To Beckett, letting Svartalfheim be buried with Woz and The Other was no different from letting the entire Nine Realms be buried with them.
In any case, they all had to be buried!
"Aaaahhhhh!!!!!"
His emerald pupils contracted sharply with Beckett's ferocious roar. Beckett seemed to hear The Other, who had already turned to ash, still playing a hymn behind him!
"You lunatic!!!"
Hela's veins bulged on her forehead. The not-yet-fully-matured Death Divinity was constantly draining her body.
Just as Hela felt she was almost completely emptied in an instant, a vibrant green light surged from Svartalfheim's world core into her body.
"What is this?"
Her depleted body was restored the moment the green light entered her. The energy's intensity even increased. Hela was stunned, and a hint of disbelief appeared in her eyes.
"The power of the World Tree core???"
A branch then appeared in Hela's hand along with the green light. It transformed into a sword at her will.
[Roar!!!]
Faintly, Hela seemed to hear a roar filled with exhilaration, but it was quickly covered again by the power of the World Tree.
"What are you spacing out for!"
"If you don't hurry, our entire Nine Realms will perish!"
Malekith's furious shout brought Hela back to her senses. "Shut up, Malekith!"
"Don't you know why this is happening?!"
If he had just handed over the Aether earlier, wouldn't that have solved everything?!
It didn't matter if she died, but he had to drag the entire Nine Realms down with him. If she didn't need Malekith's power to counteract Beckett's right now, she would have already run him through with her sword to vent her anger!
Hmm?
Wait a minute?
Run Malekith through?
With the support of the World Tree's energy, Hela's power was inexhaustible. A perfect solution suddenly popped into her mind.
"Beckett!"
"Listen to me—?!" Hela's words were interrupted by a sudden pressure. Had Beckett's power increased again?!
"Shut up."
Beckett stood shirtless beneath the dim sky, the electrical arcs within his golden aura becoming increasingly apparent.
"Get out if you don't want to die!"
[His Highness Beckett, The Other may no longer be able to accompany you on your future path.]
[His Highness Beckett! Please retreat quickly along the route Woz has planned for you.]
Woz and The Other's voices continued to echo in Beckett's ears. Gritting his teeth, Beckett ignored the soreness in his muscles and continued to increase his energy output!
"Ahhhhhhh!!!!"
When Laufey appeared before Malekith on a teleportation array, he was met head-on by Beckett's world-destroying energy wave!
"Malekith!!"
Frost energy shot out reflexively, and Laufey's face could no longer maintain its calm expression.
"We'll talk about it later if there's something, right now a madman is trying to destroy the Nine Realms!"
Malekith, acting as the main damage dealer, directly stole the concept. The three energies from Jotunheim, Svartalfheim, and Asgard were neutralized and, propelled by the World Tree's energy, slowly eroded Beckett's attack!
"You two hold them off, I'll go find him."
Spotting Laufey joining the fray in confusion, Hela instantly left her position, sword in hand, and flew into the sky.
"Beckett!"
Holding a longsword forged from a branch of the World Tree, a phantom image of mountains and rivers appeared behind Hela as she charged towards Beckett, who was locked in a stalemate with the energy torrent amplified by the World Tree's power. However, Beckett spat out an energy shockwave that shattered it!
"How is this possible?!"
Hela, sent flying back, wore an expression of disbelief.
"Enough."
A sigh, resonant and powerful, made Malekith and Laufey's expressions change drastically.
A spear crossed space, its aura directly locking onto Beckett in mid-air. The terrifying might caused the lightning above Svartalfheim to instantly cease!
"Father?!"
Hela's face was filled with surprise.
[Odin?]
Beckett looked at the spear, with which he had some familiarity, and felt a strange sensation – no matter how he dodged, this spear would hit him.
And to avoid being hit, Beckett had only one way: stop the stalemate with Malekith and Laufey and instead blast this spear away.
However...
"You've gone too far, Odin."
With the same indifferent tone as Beckett, a voice echoed above Svartalfheim. A gleaming greatsword spun, knocking Odin's spear to the ground!
Beneath the magnificent seven-colored rainbow light, Odin, astride a flying divine steed, swooped down from the sky.
Amidst the dazzling array of magical light, Thanos, clad in golden armor, slowly emerged with his right fist raised...
"Father?"
Beckett raised an eyebrow, his eyes full of surprise.
