Arthur blinked his eyes with surprise, he forgot about one thing. Hela was a goddess who valued war over peace, of course, she would want to have a child with him to tune down her satire.
" Err, now? Do you want to do it now?"
Arthur asked, scratching his head with clear confusion on his face.
" Of course not. Do you think I am a goddess of lust? I mean tonight."
Hela said, gripping her sword. She observed Asgard with an unsatisfied look because Asgard stagnated during her absence. They didn't develop themselves or try to use their ancient technology.
" Okay, but don't think I will show mercy on you."
Arthur spoke with confidence. His stamina was far enough to outclass most of the Gods.
" Hmm, I like your tone. As expected from the man, I love."
Hela chuckled, forgetting about her intentions. She didn't want to scare him away since he was half of her and she was half of him already. Although she felt a few women's aurae on his body, she didn't care much. Particularly, Asgardians obeyed his words more than hers. Therefore, she was using his name to slowly regain their recognition.
Hela understood tyranny wasn't a choice since Arthur and others would stop her. She wasn't stupid enough to throw herself to fire even though she had a chance.
Somewhere in the universe.
Thor groaned as he opened his eyes with difficulty. He got up from the cold ground, rubbing his temple with distress.
" Loki, what happened?"
He called out, but no one answered him. Thor coughed as he reached out to the water nearby him. He quenched his thirst while regaining his concentration.
" Where am I?"
He muttered, finding himself in the cuffs. He tried to destroy it, but it was unusually hard and sturdy. The chain restricted his movements as he tried to move.
" Hello? I am chained in this kind of cell."
He shouted, asking for help. All he heard was a sneer next to him.
" You think you are kidnapped? You are sold by a famous slave trader. She brought you here with those chains from the neutron star."
The old man said with a mocking tone. He saw this kind of look for a too long time. He was also sold out by his best friend.
" Old man Koro, don't be harsh on him. Hello, my name is Korg. I am your neighbor."
A voice came out from the next cell. Thor sat down on the ground with a sigh. He remembered Arthur's face and his words to him.
" I have to hurry, Ragnarok is coming. Even if he stops her, fate will engulf Asgard soon."
He mumbled, worrying about Arthur who was holding Hela back. He saw Arthur's reassurance, but that wasn't enough. Odin stated Asgard is doomed from the beginning.
" Damn it!"
Thor hit the wall with anger. His friend was in danger, his hammer was broken, his brother was nowhere to be found and he was chained down. He cursed fate for playing on his mind.
Swoosh*
Suddenly, he heard the sound of a door. Thor raised his head and saw a few guards in front of him with batons.
" You are next. We will change your cell afterward if you do well."
The leader spoke, stroking his mustache. He was amused to see such a rare occasion.
" What do you mean?"
Thor asked with suspicion. He knew he wasn't in a place to negotiate with them.
" You are our property, our warrior. Show them your worth and we will reward you in return."
The leader spoke, freeing him. Thor stretched his sore hands as he walked from his cell. He saw a various collection of weapons next to the door. Unfortunately, there was no hammer, so he picked a sword that he was taught by Odin and Arthur who were masters of sword fighting.
Swoosh*
The door opened with a blinding light. Thor blocked his eyes to adjust to the sudden brightness. He heard shouts from the crowd as he opened his eyes.
" Sigh* This is going to be troublesome."
Thor muttered, holding his sword tightly. He looked around himself and saw a big man coming out from the opposite door.
" Now, let's welcome our fighters."
Grandmaster shouted with excitement.
