Chaotic State of Mind

Although Hela was still conscious, she still did not agree with what Lu Qi had said.

"But he was so powerful back then. How could any enemy have dared to attack Asgard?"

Although she had been the supreme general conquering the Nine Realms, Odin had been the one who truly went out and fought. He had struck first, defeating the enemy leader amid thousands of troops, and then she had led the army to wipe out all the disorganized enemies.

It looked as though all the credit belonged to her, but Odin had been the one who truly secured the victory.

"Because Odin is old. He can't fight anymore."

"Old? But aren't Asgardians supposed to grow stronger with age? How could he be unable to fight?"

"Do you know how old your father is?"

Lu Qi's question stumped Hela. She stammered for a long time without being able to say Odin's age.

"How many years can ordinary Asgardians live? Odin has lived long enough to outlast who knows how many generations of Asgardians. Do you really think he isn't old enough?"

Lu Qi questioned her. "It's true that Asgardians grow stronger with age, but the fact that Asgardians can grow old means you still haven't escaped the limits of lifespan. Odin forced himself to endure until now with his own power. He has already reached his limit!"

That was not wrong. If Lu Qi had not appeared, Odin would have passed away naturally a few years later, releasing the scourge that was Hela.

Lu Qi's arrival had merely given Odin another boost, allowing him to keep holding on.

"But no matter what, he should have been able to come see me at least once. Yet it took him a full three years before he came to Hel to see me."
