Old days in the box

Chapter 154: Father’s revenge, son’s revenge

"Hela..." Taiyin's eyes were as sharp as a blade, and he looked directly at the naked woman in front of him and murmured.

Although his face was different from when he was in the Devil's Sea, this half-life and half-mortal body had already explained everything.

The woman in front of her is Hela, the goddess of death—at least, she is a shell of her acting on behalf of her.

Thick black mist spewed out from under Hela's feet and rushed towards the extraordinary beings around. Their hope, courage and perseverance were all blown out in an instant, and they became panicked and fled for their lives.

The candlelights hanging throughout the Hall of Mirrors were all polluted by the black mist and turned into strange green fire, turning the originally magnificent hall into an eerie cold palace.

"Piercing me won't change anything, Your Majesty." Hela sneered, making a mocking sound.

On his body, the decayed half of the body quickly emitted black smoke and aged, gradually turning Tain's golden spear into black color until it was completely swallowed into his body.

"Put away those unnecessary words and just say it directly. What do you want?" Taiyin stood up from the throne, his clothes filled with divine power.

"Request?" Hela smiled and turned around, walking in the luxurious hall of mirrors, looking at the green will-o'-the-wisps reflected in the mirror.

"You didn't come to this world just to laugh at me, right? Joseph is just a mortal to you, and your target is me, so let's talk directly, how can you let her go?"

Taiyin knew that Hela was here for him, from beginning to end.

Otherwise, as the majestic goddess of death, there is no need for her to come to the atrium from the land of death and go to all the trouble just to harvest Joseph's soul.

So he must have something to ask for from Taiyin - and as long as he asks for something, he still has a chance to save Joseph.

"Yeah, a very smart guess." Hela turned to Taiyin again, her face still filled with enjoyment and ridicule, "But unfortunately, you only guessed half of it right."

"Half?" Taiyin frowned.

"I do long for something, but that thing... you can't give it to me."

Hela's eyes suddenly seemed to be lost in thought, but it was fleeting and soon returned to that sneer.

"So the answer you want is - no, I never intended to ask you to do anything. All I want is your pain, your anger, and your regret. This is what I want to see."

Hela laughed loudly, enjoying the rage and grief on Tain's face.

The golden spear in his hand surged again, but this time, the thick black fog quickly rushed toward him, and black hands stretched out from the fog to grab his limbs and bind him tightly.

The authority of the goddess of death instantly suppressed Tayin.

"Why are you doing this!" Taiyin shouted angrily at her, unable to break free from her restraints.

"I completely understand your confusion. After all, the gods usually don't even look at Zhongyuan, let alone go to such trouble to target one of them, right? Let me give you a little hint."

Hela walked up the stairs to the throne and came to Tayin. She gently pinched his chin and turned his head behind him to look at the extraordinary object standing behind his throne.

The sorrow of the world.

"...Odin?" Taiyin was stunned and blurted out in an instant.

"That's right, it was your father who personally separated us three brothers and sisters and threw us into nine different realms, so that we were scattered everywhere. He also turned my other half-brother into a giant wolf. He bit his own brother to death and used the intestines of this blood relative to turn into chains, imprisoning my father Loki and causing him to suffer eternal pain."

Hela seemed to be accusing, telling Odin's actions quietly.All the blood feuds were imprinted in his mind.

"I have nothing to do with him...but if you really want to seek revenge, you can take my life."

Taiyin stared at Hela in front of him, and his voice gradually became lower.

"Let her go free, and I'm willing to take her place."

Hela smiled and shook her head. Her half-dead face came close to Taiyin's face, and she softly whispered one word to him: "No."

Taiyin's eyes suddenly filled with bloodshot eyes, as if he wanted to bite Hela's beast, but Hela didn't care about his eyes at all. Instead, he turned around and walked off the throne, raising his hands and continuing to speak loudly as if making a speech. Go down.

"You have always longed for death, right? Tyne Odinson."

"I understand you especially because you and I are very similar. We were both born with doubts, abandoned without ever seeing our father, forced to face a cruel and unfamiliar world - and in the end, we both I have found my own throne.”

Hela's voice contained a cruel smile, but it was undeniable that he did see his own shadow in Tayin.

"You have never loved this world, and you have never understood the meaning of your existence. Death is just a relief for you... Only taking her away will be your eternal punishment."

"This is simply ridiculous! I have never recognized him as my father. Why should I take responsibility for a person I have never met and get involved in the grudges of you gods?" Taiyin roared and roared at Hela.

"You are the son of Odin. Whether you admit it or not, this is a fact and cannot be changed." Hela smiled coldly.

"This is not fair!"

"This is what your father said to me personally back then, and I responded the same way at the time. But as a result, I am still standing here today, becoming the goddess of death in Helheim and fulfilling my destined destiny."

Hela's words stunned Tain.

In the face of fate, there is no such thing as fairness.

It was the black dragon Nidhogg who bit off the World Tree, and it was the fire giant Surtur who destroyed the Divine Realm. Why did the Divine Realm target these three newborn brothers and sisters?
Odin only used the light word "destiny" to explain their lives.

"I can no more escape my fate than you can escape yours. This is your fate, Tain Odinson."

For a moment, Hela's eyes returned to his true appearance - a pair of eyes filled with eternal hatred and anger just like Tain.

"The revenge of the father, the revenge of the son, neither you nor I can reverse this fate."

A netherworld passage was torn open behind Hela, as if fire had ignited the space, revealing a corner of the eternally cold kingdom of death behind him.

It was an ugly country like hell. Good, the guardian of the River Styx, was standing in the distance with a sickle in his hand. The blood-spotted demon dog Garm, who had been subdued by Hela, was staring at Tyin fiercely. It was Hela. The guardian of the Kingdom of Death before becoming a god was destined to be the old enemy of Tyr, the God of War, and would kill each other in Ragnarok.

"I can never get my father back, just like you can never get your lover back, now we are fair."

Hela laughed sadly at him, and her back was slowly covered by the realm of the Kingdom of Death until the space was completely sewn together, bringing him back to the world over there.

When Hela completely disappeared, all the restraints on Taiyin were lifted, and he was thrown to the ground and knelt on one knee in front of the World's Sorrow.

Tayin's whole body trembled, and he roared and rushed towards the miraculous creation of the father of the gods in front of him!
