Hela of course couldn't take all of this lying down and retaliated. Again swords started growing out from the ground. The swords were bigger than last time signifying that she was becoming stronger little by little.
John stopped the swords using magic and supported Strange so that he could be near Hela to bring out her astral form. Erza too started defending, but not with flying swords this time. But by close combat.
John saw that the chains were on the verge of breaking and used magic again to strengthen it.
"Oh no. You are not going anywhere."
Zatana said as he used more magic power to make her more slow, and even used magic chains over vines that she had used. Strange finally was able to be close to her.
He struck her head which was the only accessible part of her body as all the other parts were covered by chains and vines. Kratos helped him in clearing the path towards her with his blades of chaos, cutting down the swords that grew out.
And as Strange struck her head the astral form of her came out. The astral form flew quite a distance back.
"John, come here fast! Her astral form won't be out of her body for a long time."
John flew to him as Hela had stopped attacking now. He directly opened the Amulet of Anubis to suck her astral form inside it.
"No..... No.. Not again..." Hela said as she was trying her best to go back inside her body. But the souls of the previous Lords that were in the Amulet proved to be too powerful. John had already directed the souls of previous Lords of Order to keep Hela's soul trapped and sealed.
After half a minute of struggle the soul of hers was sucked by the Amulet trapping her inside with no hope for getting out again. Everybody sighed in relief after this happened. Even though they couldn't kill Hela, this was close to death for her as she would never be able to get out of the Amulet.
"Thor, are you sure you are Odin's son? Both Hela and Loki had black hair while only you are blonde." John joked in order to make the situation a little funny.
Thor didn't reply to it as he felt sad while Loki gave a weird smile to this comment.
"Thank you warriors for helping us in this fight." Thor then thanked Erza and Zatanna. Erza and Z nodded at Thor.
"You can thank Erza by helping her make a home in Asgard. Their whole guild is going to arrive in Asgard." John said.
"The whole guild of Fairy Tail you mean? Wouldn't the enemies also come?" Thor asked as he was concerned now. The enemies of Fairy Tail were really of high level, especially Zeref.
"For now, no. Maybe they will arrive but it might be far away from our planet." John said as usual giving a vague answer. John would bring the Fairy Tail to Asgard in order to gain more fan values from it.
"I will take care of it." Thor said.
John could have used Pokemon and many powers to defeat Hela but he chose not to do so. He wanted to see how powerful he was alone fighting her. Even though Hela did stab him, he wasn't fatally wounded. He needed to have good exercise so he had this fight. Though at the end he still ended up asking for help.
Erza and Z were on his agenda for a long time. Erza and her guild would be in Asgard, influencing it and keeping an eye on everything. He wished to do the same with Nova Empire too, but before that he needed to collect fan values.
Z would be with Constantine as that was the deal with him.
"Thor what will you do with your Mjolnir?" John asked as he saw Thor looking at his hammer.
"I don't know. I will need a better weapon." Thor said as he was really confused now of what he needed to do.
"Mjolnir is just a part of your power Thor. This was never your whole power. You need to awaken the powers of thunder that have been buried deep inside you."
"Then what do you recommend I should do to awaken the power which you think I possess?" Thor asked.
"Talk to your mother. She will be able to guide you on this." John said.
"Speaking of your mother, let's go back. The fight here is sure to alert the locals. Loki, you better behave. I won't stop the Avengers if they come after you with swords and axes." John warned Loki at the end. Loki just shrugged at it.
All vanished from the spot the moment John said that and appeared again in front of House of Mysteries. Loki was surprised with all the changes Earth had gone through the last few years. When he sat on the throne, he never cared to look into Earth but now when he looked at this new Ring he was in awe.
