What the Heck

Subconsciously turning his head, he saw Ren walking towards him, tossing a red and white ball up and down with his right hand.

It must have been an accident.

Odin thought to himself.

Of course, it's also possible that some die-hard elements in Norse Mythology are using some kind of secret magic to curse themselves.

Thank you so much this time.

Odin paid no attention, and his expression turned sorrowful.

Don't tell me you're trying to renege on your debt.

"Ahem... Don't worry, I am the king of the gods in Norse Mythology, and I keep my word."

Odin coughed twice, his gaze towards Ren filled with complex emotions.

At this moment, Loki slowly woke up, but the expression on his face was as ugly as if his father had died. Even though his whole body was bound by dozens of magical chains from Rossweisse, he did not struggle.

He was completely exhausted.

After all, this was the second time He had been beaten so badly.

And this time it's the real body.

Seeing Loki glaring at him with venomous eyes, Ren couldn't help but ask, "Should I help you by humanely destroying Loki? Don't worry, I'll be quick."

Upon hearing this, Loki's face turned green.

But Odin shook his head. "No need. I will have it taken back to the Nordic Divine Kingdom for judgment."

"Alright."

Ren shrugged and glared back at Loki, who was staring directly at him.

Since it was the employer's request, he, as an employee, couldn't really say anything more.

However, if there's a next time, I might not be so lucky.

"Rossweisse, let's go. Everyone has had a long night."

Odin, unusually, displayed the majesty of a god-king at this moment. Rossweisse lifted Loki up and summoned Sleipnir.

However, after waiting for a while, Ren found that Odin was still standing in the same spot.

"Aren't you leaving yet?"

"... Fenrir, and its two offspring, we'll take them with us too."

Although Loki betrayed him, he was still a god in Norse Mythology, and Fenrir, one of his subordinates, was naturally the property of the Nordic Divine Kingdom.

Moreover, Fenrir's performance in this battle was extremely powerful, Odin felt that even if he personally joined the fight, he wouldn't have done better than Ren.

Upon hearing this, Ren shook his head blankly. "Fenrir? I don't know, is there any Fenrir here?"

Upon hearing this, everyone around was completely dumbfounded.

What is that?

There was such a huge wolf crouching next to them, and you're telling me you didn't know?

Then they saw Ren ask Fenrir, "Little Gray, do you know anyone here named Fenrir?"

Fenrir was about to agree, but upon seeing Ren's kind eyes, he immediately shook his head, letting out a sob to indicate that he didn't know anyone named Fenrir.

"Is there anyone here named Skoll and Hati?"

Under Fenrir's kind gaze, its two children shook their heads in unison, indicating that they had no idea what the two names were.

"What about them?"

Odin's expression was strange.

"Oh, the big one Little Gray, and the two little ones Little Gray Gray and Little Little Gray."

After Ren finished speaking, the three wolves even howled in response.

Everyone: "..."

You're really good at lying through your teeth.

Even a robbery wouldn't be this fast.

In the end, Odin still couldn't get Fenrir back. After all, he figured that even if he did get it back, it wouldn't obey him, and leaving it unattended might make a mess of Norse Mythology, so he simply gave it to Ren.

"Let's go too."

Ren yawned. After finishing his fight with Fenrir and Loki, he suddenly relaxed and immediately felt sleepy.

Rias and the others had no objections. Although their rating was only 3.0, it was their first time playing a high-level game, and they still had backaches, leg cramps, and needed to go home to rest and get treatment.

Lavinia wanted to invite Vali over, but in the blink of an eye, she found that Vali and the Bikou had already disappeared.

"Sigh, really, Xiao Wa is always like this..."

Chapter 189 It's a hammer!

Chapter 189

In any case, this incident was resolved satisfactorily thanks to Ren's intervention.

Before noon the next day.

Besides Vali and the Bikou, a group of people reunited at Ren' house last night.

Of course, in addition to the original cast, Azazel and Baiqiu also appeared here.

The Demon King from the Underworld didn't come, but Grayfia did.

However, before they even met Ren, they were already on high alert upon seeing the three dogs tied up in the yard.

Especially when Azazel learned that one of the reasons was Fenrir, his brain almost shut down.

Baiqiu gripped the Spear of Light tightly in his hand, instinctively becoming alert due to the sense of danger emanating from Fenrir.

But when Asia, who was feeding the dogs, told them that the three dogs were strays that Ren had picked up from outside, they were completely taken aback.

What kind of luck does it take to find such terrifying "dogs" while out for a walk?

Grayfia opened her mouth slightly, her eyes also filled with shock.

"How exactly did they do that?"

As a skilled magician, Grayfia detected no seals or barriers on the three demonic wolves.

But the more it's like this, the stranger it becomes.

Loki is Fenrir's master; how could anyone else possibly make it obey?

If Fenrir were really that easy to talk to, someone in Norse Mythology would have stolen them from Loki long ago.

Furthermore, according to available information, Fenrir is a being with advanced intelligence.

Although they cannot speak, they possess a strong sense of self, just like humans.

Generally speaking, such strong individuals have extremely high self-esteem.

Even Loki probably couldn't command Fenrir to obediently put on a collar and leash.

The only explanation Grayfia could think of was that Fenrir was a misnomer.

At the very least, their personality won't be the same as described in the profile.

"Actually, I don't know what that kid did to make Fenrir so obedient. You should be able to sense it too... There are no signs of any power restriction on Fenrir. It's said that Ren made Fenrir so obedient because he fed it something like rice balls, but that's still incomprehensible... right?"

Odin, who came with Rossweisse, was also shocked by Ren's methods.

Not to mention others who found it outrageous, Odin found it extremely outrageous.

Having mastered all of Norse Mythology, he spent the entire night after returning home trying to figure it out but still couldn't.

The abilities of this mercenary, whose identity and origins were entirely shrouded in mystery, were beyond his comprehension.

"This kid's abilities are really strange. I didn't think he was that powerful when we first met, but now even Loki has been defeated by him."

Azazel complained.

"What has happened to the world since God died?"

A God -Longinus has appeared, and now Ren, a human, has arrived.

Grayfia then turned her gaze away.

"At least for now, his choice to stand with us is enough."

After that, everyone met with Ren and his group in the living room on the first floor to discuss the Loki attack.

Speaking of which, Odin and Rossweisse haven't gotten any rest since last night.

After separating from Ren, Rossweisse contacted Asgard headquarters and then used a teleportation array to transfer Loki back and imprison him.

According to Odin, Loki will be sealed in a prison for eternity.

However, upon hearing this, Ren roughly guessed that Loki would definitely escape successfully afterward.

After all, seals are meant to be broken.

But Ren didn't warn him, since if Loki escaped, he might come back to cause trouble, and another mission might appear.

The top leaders of several major factions held a very brief meeting at Ren's house.

Besides properly handling Loki's attack, there's also the communication, exchange, and strategic planning among these forces, as well as the recent relentless attacks by the Khaos Brigade various mythological factions.

"Besides that, I also investigated some other things."

Then.

Azazel revealed the information he had gathered.

"Recently, my men captured some members who claimed to be from the Hero Faction. While detaining and investigating them, they discovered that they were dying one after another."

"Having been studied, of course he would have died of unbearable humiliation."

After hearing this, Ren shrugged.

The others also showed expressions of agreement upon hearing this.

But Azazel retorted seriously, "We Fallen Angels conduct perfectly normal and humane research; the idea of slices and the like is a misunderstanding of us."

"Such words coming from the mouth of the Fallen Angels governor are not very convincing."

Xenovia said.

"Fine, believe it or not, I'm just stating the facts."

Azazel sighed.

"The Hero Faction we captured were all wielders of Sacred Gear, and their deaths were caused by Ophis's serpent."

"However, it's not the kind that directly enhances power, but rather a new type of snake. They coil around the wielder's Sacred Gear, seemingly using the power of Ophis to unleash the Sacred Gear's inherent potential, allowing it to perform the function of Balance Breaker. But because there are many uncertain factors, it can easily lead to the Sacred Gear's damage."

Everyone guessed what happened next.

For the wielder of Sacred Gear, the Sacred Gear itself is the most important thing.

Once the Sacred Gear is damaged, the user will suffer a backlash, ranging from complete paralysis and becoming a vegetable to immediate death.

The group chatted for a while longer.

Azazel stated that their purpose in coming here was to speak with Odin, to negotiate with the island gods during their upcoming journey, and to serve as their protectors.

Odin intended to invite Ren to continue as his bodyguard, but after waiting a while and not finding the mission notification, Ren immediately refused Odin's invitation and demanded the promised reward back from Odin.

Odin was helpless.

Why did you agree so readily before, and now you're refusing so decisively?

However, he couldn't force Ren, so he had Rossweisse give Ren the reward for this.

It's a pile of books.

"These books record all runic magic, and each magic book also has detailed annotations, which are very helpful for practicing magic."

Lavinia's eyes lit up when she saw this.

As a professional magician, she was naturally aware of the value of these magic books.
