Legion

Hela then looked directly at me and smiled wickedly before her attention was diverted to the two approaching gods. Yeah, that smile sent chills down my spine...

Upon seeing their sister Loki and Thor, they dramatically changed their clothes before stepping towards her.

Yao and I exchanged glances and transformed our clothes as well, so as not to appear out of place without any special looking clothes. Yao switched from her white scholar dress to her customary golden monk outfit, while I summoned a khaki tactical vest, black fingerless gloves, and combat boots.

Since I was already wearing black cargo pants and a grey shirt, I didn't change those as they fit the army look I was aiming for.

Still ignoring our presence, Thor addressed his elder sister, saying, "You must be Hela. I'm Thor son of Odin."

"Really...? You don't look like him." Hela responded arrogantly.

"Perhaps we can come to an arrangement." Loki interjected, attempting to prevent a conflict.

If I had popcorn, I would feel like I was in a theater right now. However, I was standing somewhere in Norway, observing this live which was even better. As I drifted in my thoughts, having watched the movie countless times before, the siblings finally reached a conclusion.

Refusing to kneel before their queen, Thor declared, "I don't think so!" and hurled his mighty hammer at Hela, who had already a necrosword ready in her hand to strike them down.

To everyone's astonishment, she effortlessly caught the hammer, leaving Loki, Yao, and especially Thor shocked by her action. While I patiently waited for events to unfold without interfering since Mjølnir had to be sacrificed for the sake of Thor and Jane. Only then could they unlock their true potential.

"That's impossible," said Thor while breathing heavily.

Hela smirked at him, while saying, "Darling, you have no idea what's possible."

In the next moment, Thor's life changed forever as Hela crushed his hammer, causing the lightning stored within it to escape and spread around us. Surprisingly, it did not strike any of us for some reason.

And it's gone... it was now time to ask Hela some questions.

"Bring us b---." Before Loki could scream it out, I froze him in place, because I never canceled my Genjutsu on him, so it was easy to do it from afar. This gave Hela enough time to summon her crown and throw a necrosword toward them.

"Let's refrain from throwing sharp objects, shall we?" Just before it could hit any of them, I caught the sword midair and positioned myself between the siblings.

This act shocked the Asgardian queen, wiping the grin off her face. The next moment I noticed that Thor was attempting to run toward us so I told my sorcerer friend, "Yao, let me have a little talk with her." She nodded and created a force field around Loki and Thor, stopping the hammerless god in his tracks.

To further intimidate Hela, I channeled my chakra towards the Asgard-powered necrosword, destroying it from the inside, while walking towards her. Then I simply broke it in two before tossing the pieces in front of her, leaving her even more astounded.

"Impossible?" I questioned with a smirk, now standing merely a few feet away from her.

"You are slightly stronger than Tamat mentioned. However, if I look into your left eye, I see that a significant portion of your power is already missing. So, don't get too cocky, worm."

"Is that so? Speaking of the liquid imposter, is he still using my powers and face, or has he reverted to his slimy form once again?"

"Hmph! Your powers? Without him, you wouldn't have even awakened them. Now kneel, and I promise that when I deliver you to my husband, he may kill your pregnant whore quickly." said Hela with a smirk at the end

...!

"Say that again," I challenged her, while letting my chakra storm out of my body making it visible to the naked eye.

She grinned even wider, pleased that her words had managed to provoke me. "Kneel--- agh!"

Before she could finish her sentence or react to my actions, I quickly calmed my chakra and concentrated it intensely within my body. Then I dashed toward her, seizing her by the neck with one hand and forcing her to the ground.

After six months of training, I didn't even need my lightning armor to catch her off guard with my speed...

As I made her kneel, I demanded once more, "Repeat what you said."

But she struggled for breath and attempted to summon her necrosword, which failed to work. Making her stare at me with wide eyes.

Knowing she had acquired her powers from Asgard and Odin's life force, I channeled my chakra through her body, disrupting her other energies and rendering her helpless for the time being.

"You are not in Asgard 'queen', so watch your mouth. For the next course of action I'll ease my grip slightly, and you will tell me everything you know about your slimy lover. And if you refuse, I promise you that even if I have to destroy Asgard myself, I will find a way to kill you, and your death will not come quickly. So blink twice if you understand."

She did so, and I loosened my grip slightly, allowing her to inhale some air. In a raspy voice, she said then, "Why... don't... you... ask... him... yourself?"

Suddenly, the portal to Hel opened behind me, and black tentacles snaked out, seizing my body, preventing me from moving, and dragging me inside it.

Hela smirked at me, but I swiftly channeled additional chakra into my feet, allowing me to momentarily break free from the clutches of the tentacles. Taking advantage of the opportunity, I delivered a powerful kick to her face, sending her flying backwards.

However, my victory was short-lived as I was ultimately dragged into the realm of death, completely consumed by its darkness.

Like in déjà vu, the scenery changed again, and I found myself standing on a cliff once more. However, sadly, this time it wasn't in Norway. The sky was black, with the only light coming from the green lightning in the dark clouds that occasionally struck the ground.

The ground was made of black stone, and in every direction I looked, everything was made of this black stone. The terrain consisted mostly of cliffs, mountains, and more cliffs, which appeared very monotonous.

"This stupid bitch, hopefully Tamat gave her some cosmic STDs." I muttered through gritted teeth. Taking a deep breath, I pondered my next course of action. Should I wait for him to come to me here, or should I take the initiative and search for him?

After nothing happened for a while I decided to search for Tamat myself. While closing my eyes, I extended my senses to search for a clue in this godforsaken place. After a few minutes, I sensed a somehow familiar presence, but I had no idea who it was. One thing was certain—it wasn't Tamat.

Channeling some chakra into my feet, I leaped towards the presence, and shortly after, I landed on flat terrain. However, the presence was no longer there. Confused, I looked around.

When a few seconds later, green lightning struck the ground behind me. And since I'm not in the Harry Potter universe, there was no bald Voldemort standing there after the lightning disappeared. Instead, there stood another well known baldy.

I remember this man well and not only because I was the one who pierced his body with my chidori killing him in the process, even though it was actually Tamat at that time, not me...

"There you are, motherfucker. We've been waiting a long time for you to get here."

Standing before me was Nick Fury, in all his glory, still wearing his black leather trench coat. Well, not exactly in full glory, as there was a nasty hole in his upper body, and glowing green veins could be seen all over him. His green glowing eye completed the look.

Approaching him, I said, "Yeah, it's been a while. I must say, I like your new look. It literally screams 'I'm evil.' Must be a real hit here."

However, Nick didn't even chuckle at my joke. He simply stood there, lazily watching me.

So I continued cautiously, while observing my surroundings, since he mentioned 'we', "One question before you probably try to take revenge on me or something like that. How the hell did you end up here? Was it because you were an atheist or because you didn't like the heat of the normal Hell?"

"No, we came to this place because someone heard us and granted us the ability to take our revenge," said 'Nick' coldly.

Turning my head left and right, I asked, "You said 'we'? Who else is here besides you, Nick?"

"Everyone... Everyone you killed during your time on Earth," replied Nick, but his voice changed, sounding as if many people were speaking at the same time.

Suddenly, hands, faces, and other body parts began to emerge from Nick's body, forming a round mass of flesh that stopped growing after reaching nearly 150 feet.

Then green veins spread through the flesh, and lightning started striking it countless times, seemingly attempting to awaken whatever this thing was trying to become.

Not waiting any longer, I hurled some giant fireballs towards it, but before they even reached it, green lightning destroyed them like they were nothing. Then, another massive bolt of lightning struck the blob of flesh.

After that, it started to change form once again, getting a dragon-like head, a long snake-like body with multiple tails, and wyvern-like wings with claws. As the creature opened its eyes, green ghostly flames burned within them and across its torso and other parts of it's body.

Then it spoke, "I am Legion, for we are many!"
