Chapter 82 – Nine Realms

‘Class wise her Demonic Energy Level is higher than mine, but her body is lacking, but still admirable; she must have undergone strict physical training and strengthening. Not something many devils would do.’

I thought in my head.

She was pretty strong among the Ultimate-Class powerhouses.

“I will be departing for the Nine Realms soon enough. In the meantime, when I am gone, look over the Fuerig and borders with a demilitarized zone with Fallen.”

I said to her, to which Grayfia nodded. With her overseeing Fuerig and my territory, I could rest that they were secure.f

Soon I would be departing for the Nine Realms, with my prime target being to reach Hela, who was in Helheim.

The only way for me to get into the Nine Realms was to go through the Draconic Deus and find a portal that is connected to the Helheim in the Draconic Deus. If I am lucky, I will be able to find it relatively fast.

I studied a bit about the Nine Realms; they were huge interconnected dimensional realms, created from the nine realms of Asgard, Vanaheim, Alfheim, Jotunheim, Swartalfheim, Niflheim, Muspelheim, Midgard, and Helheim. There were also some minor realms, such as Nidavelir.

Yggdrasil, the world tree that connected all of them.

Asgard was home to the battle race Aesir, which ruled over the entire Nine Realms. Vanaheim was home to the Vanir, species with immense talent in magic and sorcery. Jotunheim is a frozen world inhabited by Ice Giants. Muspelheim, a vulcanic world of raging flames under the rule of Flame Giant Surtr. Alfheim is home to Light Elves, a special breed of elves with a high affinity for light magic.

Niflheim is home to endless cold, freezing fog. Swartalfheim, currently a dead world, was destroyed by an ancient war between King Borr and King of Dark Elves Malekith. And finally, a small world of Nidavelir, home to several dwarf tribes.

Some may not distinguish Midgard and Earth, but in reality, they were different places. Midgard was a plane that was eternally in the Viking Age. Almost all Einherjar that started as mortals were selected from Midgard. One could say it was like a factory for soldiers that supplied Asgard with its armies.

I teleported to the Draconic Deus, to Norway. I didn’t bother looking around; humans here were still beyond primitive in culture and barely had anything of interest to me.

Immediately I cast the spell to search for spatial disturbances, to search for the tunnel to the Helheim. I was in a hurry, as I could no longer prolong this matter due to extremely high tensions in Asgard.

“There.”

I muttered as my detection spell finally found something several miles away from my current location.

I also needed to be cautious because two people could easily sense me entering the Helheim. One of them was Odin, as God-King had absolute control over the Nine Realms and could easily detect if someone entered.

The second one, even more problematic, was Heimdall. He was an all-seeing God, directly connected to the source of the Nine Realms and his perception was even superior to that of Odin’s. To evade his All-Seeing Eyes would be highly problematic; fortunately, right now, he should be focusing on Hela and her army, and with a bit of concealment magic, it should be okay.

I went to search for the spatial tunnel leading to the Helheim. Surprisingly, I found it rather fast, and it was guarded by several powerful warding spells and even magical formations around the entire area.

The first thing I needed was to break down the magical formation, but that was done rather quickly, as I did it with brute force, as the formation was weak and crudely done. After I was done with it, I moved to the warding spells that were blocking the entrance to the cave, where the spatial tunnel was located.

The Master of the Aesir Magic appropriately did these spells in Aesir Magic. These ones proved to be more problematic. To break them down would require some time, but with help from Architect, I could easily locate weak spots in the warding spells and barriers over the entrance to the cave, break down the barriers, and enter the cave just within one hour.

Afterward, I entered the cave and quickly located the portal, which was at the deepest part of the underground maze.

I entered the portal and soon enough appeared in the Helheim.

“Damm, this place is even worse than Underworld.”

I muttered as I looked around.

The sky was dark black, just like death. The air here stanched with the aroma of rotting flesh and blood.

This was really a shithole, a realm of the dead.

I needed to find Hela as soon as possible and strike a deal with her, or whatever, as I was aware that my concealment spells could not last for eternity, and sooner or later, they would be found out by Odin or Heimdall, and then I would be f***** up.

‘Find Hela, get her only my side, and depart for the Underworld with her army as soon as possible. Still, if Odin chooses to banish her and strip her of her godhood, then she will fall back to the Ultimate-Class, as she got her godhood when she reached Ultimate-Class. But, Aesir has an innate ability to awaken godhood; naturally, I read that Odin did it, but from current Asgardians, almost none have achieved such feat.’

I thought in my head.

Still, I was in a hurry; from the latest reports I got, enemies of Asgard, namely Laufey and Surtr, had started moving their armies against All-Father already. While Malekith was still lurking in the dark, hoping to strike when Odin was at his weakest.

Truth to be told after I get Hela to join me, I don’t really care what will happen to Asgard, though some of their technologies, magic, and treasures are too precious for me to ignore.

Maybe I will steal them and admit the chaos.
