Chapter 1482 Blessing

"Yeah. The one who grants me the blessing is her father, the God of Mischief, Loki."

This statement shocked everyone because this was the first time Theo revealed his blessing. Others could only speculate about his blessing, but they were the ones who heard it directly from Theo.

"Though, I certainly don't understand how you're still alive." Theo glanced at Hel.

"I never died. I mean, what did I do during that time?" Hel asked back.

"What did you do?" Theo pondered for a moment. "Now that I think about it, there is almost no record about you during Ragnarok. Even Fenrir and Jormungand fought people.."

"Yeah. I remained in Helheim at that time. I mean, there will be a huge influx of souls coming to Helheim after that, so I have to remain there to take care of those souls."

"To the Spatial Rift?" Theo narrowed his eyes.

"Correct. Those who could be reincarnated went through the usual way while those who are strong enough went to the Spatial Rift and remained there." Hel nodded and soon noticed the dumbfounded expression they had.

".." Theo let out a long sigh and explained everything from the beginning. "I'm sure that all of you are aware of Ragnarok, right? Before everyone died at that time, the God of Mischief had created a separate realm for refugees, our world. The destroyed world is on the other side.

"This was what truly happened behind the scenes. In other words, after the other side was thoroughly destroyed, he sneaked in some people and other living beings to this side, letting them populate the empty realm.

"I have explained the structure of the two sides and the Spatial Rift to you, so I'm sure that you can connect everything." Theo sighed.

Isaac gasped. "Then, the reason we could find Atlantis and all historical structures.."

"Yeah. That's because they belonged to the other side. Though, you haven't answered my question." Theo glanced at Hel.

"Ah? About me staying alive? That's simple. You remember about the coldness that would freeze everything?"

"You're not going to tell me that you're faking your death, right?"

"That's exactly what I did. I froze myself and separated my own soul to enter the Spatial Rift, making it look like I was dead even though I wasn't. As for the method, I think the fact that I'm managing the souls of the dead alone is enough to explain it.

"Anyway, I faked my death this way and entered the Spatial Rift with everyone else. This way, I could give blessings like the others.

"Then, when the Spatial Rift collapsed, my soul didn't belong to the dead since I'm not dead yet. So, I returned to my body and got teleported to this place. Well, this place is near the former Helheim, so I thought about going to your place.. I guess we're lucky to meet here."

"Indeed." Theo chuckled.

Hel shrugged and glanced at Theo's group. "Well, my Death Armor is stopping my flesh from rotting. Do you want me to take it out so that you can touch the rotten flesh? It'll be a new experience."

".." Everyone was speechless while Theo said, "I don't think you should do that. Humans."

"Yeah, humans." Hel rolled her eyes, not liking humans as well.

"Anyway, I have another question, where is he? His soul should belong to the deceased, right? The record is there."

"I'm not sure myself. I do believe that he's like that, but you know him.. He might suddenly appear and say, 'I'm bored, so I'm going to enjoy this world for the time being,' or something like that."

".." Theo couldn't refute it. Knowing Loki's personality, he would certainly not die with the other souls in the Spatial Rift when it collapsed. In other words, he might be somewhere in this world, but no one knew what he was planning to do.

"Still, there's something that doesn't add up. How do you know her, Theo? If your blessing comes from the God of Mischief, doesn't it mean he'll be the only one you meet?" Rea asked.

Theo and Hel looked at each other. Their gaze decided that Hel was going to explain it.

Hel raised her finger. "To put it simply, he created the realm, so he knew what he could do with it. Hence, when he gave his blessing to Theo, we could come along. There were four of us back then while the rest took care of the matter in the Spatial Rift."

"Four.." Rea gasped, understanding that meaning. "Doesn't that mean you were trained by four godlike figures?"

"I guess you can say that. I think you have seen my power.."historical

"Now that I think about it.." Rea contemplated, recounting Theo's skills. "The snake skin, the avatar, and the blink. Are they.."

"Yeah, the serpent, the death, and the beast." Theo nodded, confirming her doubt. "My Metamorphosis, Telekinesis, and Clone are from the original blessing.."

Theo, of course, didn't mention anything about the World Re-Creation due to its nature that completely broke the system.

"No wonder you're so talented. Your progress is so fast that everyone can't believe it." Rea shook her head helplessly.

"That's where you're wrong, little girl." Hel smirked. "It's not because of us that he's so talented. It's because he's talented that we chose him."

"Ah!" Rea looked away since that meant Theo was far more monstrous than she originally thought.

"Anyway, what are you going to do next? Find him?" Theo asked Hel.

"My body is still too weak right now. I have been frozen for so long, so a few months are not enough for me to fully recover. Since it's impossible to find him with this condition, I'm going to stick with you until I recover. Just don't include me in your plan since I'm going to focus on my recovery. Though, if your place is attacked, I'll help you."

"I see. That's reassuring." Theo nodded. "But there is one more problem now. My people are going to pass here, so I'm afraid that we're going to miss them. If they somehow meet the Griffith Family.."

"That's easy." Hel snapped her fingers as numerous skeletons began to come out of the ground. This was her Necromancy Skill. But as expected from an S Rank Necromancy Skill, the numbers of skeletons were so high that it resembled an army. "I'll spread them in a straight line. This way, we can easily find them."

"With this number.." Theo furrowed his eyebrows. "We can stretch to five miles in either direction if we properly distance them."

"I can do that much since I just have to program them. If they meet your people, I can control them precisely and tell them to catch up with you. Of course, I don't think we can go too fast with them here and there are cities too."

"That's enough." Theo nodded.
