Surtur was already having second thoughts and preparing to leave.
Just then, a voice rang out beside Surtur's ear.
"Surtur, you must really want the Eternal Flame. Once you have it, you should be able to defeat Hela, right?"
"Loki!"
Hearing that voice, Surtur quickly recognized it. It was unmistakably Loki's voice.
Surtur could not help hesitating when he heard it. He could have left immediately, but if he really could obtain the Eternal Flame, dealing with Hela would naturally pose no problem.
But he doubted whether Loki truly wanted to help him.
If he delayed any longer, he feared he would lose his life.
The thought left him even more conflicted.
"It seems you don't trust me. Leave if you want, but this is your only chance. I'm about to get the Eternal Flame. If you leave now, it will definitely be guarded even more closely!"
Loki's voice rang out again.
Surtur fell somewhat silent.
Still, he believed him to some extent. After all, if this really were a trap...
Loki seemingly had no need to speak up and deceive him. If he simply appeared and assisted Hela, Surtur probably could not withstand them at all. Why waste so much effort?
After learning that Odin had fallen asleep, Surtur had felt that Loki was the person most likely to help him.
Loki was not an Asgardian.
He had also attacked Earth. To obtain power, Loki was someone who would stop at nothing.
By agreeing to help him now, Loki could gain power over Asgard. How could someone who craved power not want to seize this opportunity?
Even this opportunity was a once-in-a-lifetime one for Loki.
If they truly succeeded, Loki would openly and legitimately become Asgard's master.
Of course, Surtur only wanted to destroy Asgard and bring destruction upon
