American comic book: Scarlet Witch's Multiverse
Chapter 38 Helheim, the Underworld, Goddess of Death
"You want me to kill your eldest daughter?"
Wanda was slightly surprised when she heard Odin's words.
"No, no, it is."
Seeing Wanda's surprised expression, Odin quickly explained.
But in the end, no explanation was given.
Perhaps in the end, this is the only way.
"I don't want you to do that. I hope you can dissuade Hela from taking over Asgard."
"If she ascends the throne, it will be the beginning of Asgard's destruction."
"So I hope you can persuade Hela to give up the idea of ascending the throne."
Odin explained it to Wanda.
"If... if you can't do that either, then let Hela slumber in Helheim."
Odin closed his eyes and spoke in a low voice.
You could hear the slight pain in his voice.
After all, Hela is his daughter. If he could truly destroy Hela without any mercy, he wouldn't have waited until now.
"With your abilities, you should be able to do it."
After hearing Odin's demands, Wanda countered with, "And what's the reward for the trade?"
"Take any two items from the Asgardian vaults."
"You can take whatever you want."
Odin then revealed the payment for the transaction.
The Treasury of Asgard.
There are many good things inside; after all, it is a treasure trove in the center of the Nine Realms.
"Can."
Wanda agreed.
"You were trying to persuade Hela not to take the throne, right?"
"Simply put, we shouldn't let Hela harbor any further thoughts about Asgard, right?"
"Yes," Odin nodded and said, "As long as Hela stops having any designs on Asgard."
"Do it as best you can. If that doesn't work, then eliminate her."
Odin gave Wanda one last reminder.
"Hela has a special connection with Asgard. As long as Hela stands on Asgardian soil, she will grow infinitely stronger and become extremely difficult to defeat."
"So you can only defeat her outside of Asgard."
"Never let Hela come to the land of Asgard."
Wanda nodded at Odin's size and said, "I understand. If I really can't defeat her, I can reseal her."
That's good.
Odin also trusts Wanda quite a bit, after all, Wanda is now the Sorcerer Supreme.
Moreover, Wanda's strength is no weaker than it was in his youth.
"In that case, I will take you to Helheim."
Odin rose from his throne and spoke to Wanda.
"it is good."
Wanda stood up and nodded in agreement.
As for how to get Hela to give up her claim to the throne of Asgard, it's very simple. Just give her a good beating and make her realize that there are always people more powerful than you.
Hela's desire to reclaim the throne of Asgard stemmed from her ambition to expand her territory. At the height of her power, she witnessed Odin abandoning the pursuit of expansion and relinquishing the universe, which he could have easily acquired.
They instead chose the path of peace.
As the goddess of death, she firmly believed that she could conquer the entire universe through military force.
He was betrayed by his own father at the height of his power and sealed away in Helheim.
How could this not make her angry?
Therefore, Hela has never seen the true top powerhouses in the universe, such as the Celestials, Dimensional Demons, or the five creator gods.
Moreover, at that time, even Odin probably didn't know about these things, since both of them were young and had limited perspectives.
Perhaps Odin chose the path of peace after that time because he learned of these things.
To make Hela give up the idea of the throne, first beat her up, then let her see the existence of the dimensional demons.
In this way, she would naturally realize the difference between herself and them.
Besides, if she doesn't give up even after all this, then she'll naturally resort to extreme measures.
It's not like we're required to persuade Hela.
The two arrived at the Rainbow Bridge.
"Heimdall, send us to Helheim."
Odin said to Heimdall.
Although he could do it himself, this is at home, so there's no need to be in such a hurry.
"As you command, Your Majesty the God-King."
Heimdall addressed Odin respectfully.
Then he inserted the longsword in his hand into the Rainbow Bridge device, and the Rainbow Bridge opened. In an instant, Wanda and Odin were teleported away.
Almost instantly, the two arrived in Helheim.
A dead planet, a dead kingdom.
This is a place only the dead go.
The scene here is always one of eternal night, cold, and wandering spirits.
This is where the dead reside.
Ordinary people would never come here, nor could they possibly get in. Anyone who did come in would be instantly torn apart by the undead and frozen to death by the planet's cold.
But for two beings of the Heavenly Father level, this place is acceptable.
There was no danger as imagined.
"Is this Helheim?!"
Looking at the cold, dark planet, Wanda murmured to herself.
"Yes, this is where the dead reside."
"And Hela was sealed away by me in the deepest part of Hel."
Odin looked at the wandering undead around him, and at the undead that seemed to have a tendency to attack them.
He gently tapped the ground with his spear, and then a strange energy spread out.
The next moment, the spirits dispersed.
Odin did not shatter them.
They are lives too.
"Come with me."
Odin took Wanda to the place where Hela was sealed away.
After walking a little further, Odin stopped.
It stopped in an empty place.
As Odin struck the ground with the Spear of Eternity, the previously empty space suddenly began to distort, and then a vortex appeared.
"My father, are you going to die?!"
"You plan to get rid of me when your time is up?"
Hela emerged from the vortex with a smile on her face.
Even before she appeared, Hela teased Odin.
There was absolutely no respect for his father.
But that's normal; other people might just be angry.
"Hela, my daughter."
Odin looked at that familiar figure and didn't know what to say.
Could it be that, my daughter, you are right, and I really have come to get rid of you?
Is this something I can say?
"Oh...who is she? Is she also your daughter?"
"While I was sealed away, you seemed to be doing quite well, enjoying a happy family life?"
Hela smiled at Wanda, then asked Odin.
"Hela, this is the Sorcerer Supreme from Midgard?! She will also be your teacher, and she will teach you whether it is right or wrong to conquer the universe by force."
Odin spoke to Hela with a blank expression.
He's right. Teaching Hela to give up her fantasies about the throne and her idea of possessing Asgard—isn't that what a teacher does?
Although the process may have been a bit tortuous, they are still teachers, aren't they?
Although he didn't know how Wanda would persuade Hela, he knew a battle was inevitable because Hela was just that stubborn.
