Five Years Later
Kael's POV:
It's been five years since I arrived in this realm. Five long years of grueling training.
And finally… I've completed Saitama's infamous training regimen.
Some of you might be wondering:
"Why did it take five years for a course that should take only 1.5 years?"
Well, let me tell you — it's a lot harder than it sounds.
If you miss even one day, you have to start over from scratch.
Yes, that's the reason.
Honestly, I feel like I was being played. Throughout these five years, the daily sign-ins gave me random rewards — food, workout equipment, points...
Nothing special.
The best thing I got was a phone.
But not just any phone — a phone blessed by the Void.
It has infinite battery, it's nearly indestructible, and it gives me access to the internet across all realms.
Aside from that?
Nothing.
But the training wasn't for nothing. Even Hela doesn't make fun of me anymore.
In the beginning, she used to mock me.
"Frail mortal," she'd say. "Weakling." and many more.
But at some point, she stopped laughing and started training me herself.
Yes, Hela, the Goddess of Death, trained me.
[Status]
Name: Kael Alaric
Level: 89
Abilities: Multiverse Travel (Locked)
Strength: Tier 2
Speed: Tier 2
Endurance: Tier 4
Intelligence: Above Average
Luck: Questionable
Now, you might ask: What does "Tier 2 Strength" mean?
It means my strongest attack could level a city.
And I achieved this through sheer hard work and physical training.
No magic.
No divine power.
Just training.
Hela's POV
Fascinating.
The mortal who once struggled to survive in my realm is now a powerhouse.
He knows nothing of magic or divine energy, yet he has reached the level of a sub-god, purely through physical strength.
And he did it all in less than a decade.
Impressive.
Kael's POV
Suddenly, a familiar ding echoed in my mind.
[Ding!]
"Congratulations, host! You have completed the hidden mission: Saitama's Training."
"Reward: Haki Training Manual."
I stared at the system screen.
"Haki? Seriously? Well… that's not too bad. At least it looks cool."
I shook my head and sighed.
"System, what about my main mission?"
[Ding!]
"Host's main mission — turning Hela into the Goddess of Life — is still ongoing. However, you can complete it if you propose to her."
I blinked.
"Wait, what? Propose? To Hela? You've got to be kidding me!"
The system didn't respond.
"… Fine."
I sighed and decided to use the premium food tickets I'd been hoarding.
[Ding!]
1 Box of Soul-Calming Candy
1 Box of Soul-Strengthening Ice Cream
1 Box of Regret-Erasing Chicken Fry
1 Box of Negative Karma-Erasing Rice
I stared at the screen.
"… ??"
system what are those?
The system responded.
"Host received the most optimal rewards for his current situation."
Now that you said it I should be able to complete the main mission with it after saying it
I made my way to Hela's chamber, where I found her… reading on my phone.
Yes, my phone.
I barely use it, since I'm always training. But Hela?
She's become an otaku.
She reads web novels, watches anime, and even practices anime moves using her dark energy.
One time, she summoned an army of undead and said, "Arise, my soldiers!"
Can you believe that she is imitating Jin woo, fuck well it fits her
She even sparred with me once, playing the necromancer queen while I played the villain.
Honestly? She's kind of cute.
Though… a bit of a tsundere.
When she saw me, she smirked.
"Oh? Is your training finally complete, Kael?"
I nodded.
"Yeah. And… I have something to say."
She raised an eyebrow.
"Oh? What is it? Did you get something interesting?"
"I want to hear your life story again."
"… Why? I've told you my story many times. Nothing will change if you hear it again."
I sat down beside her. Surprisingly, she didn't kick me out.
"Have you ever thought about forgiving your father?"
The moment I said that, her sword materialized in her hand, and she swung it at me.
I barely dodged in time, jumping back to create distance.
"How dare you?! Just because you've gotten stronger doesn't mean you can ask me to forgive that bastard!"
"Look, I know you hate him. But at least listen to me."
She glared at me but didn't attack again.
"Fine. Speak."
"Hela, right now, you're in Odin's realm — the realm he rules. He keeps an eye on you."
"… Yes."
"Tell me — what happened to all of Odin's enemies?"
"He killed them."
"Then why did he let you live?"
"… To make me suffer. To show his power."
"Maybe. Or… maybe he still loves you."
I handed her the food.
Rice of Regret-Erasing, Chicken Fry, and some soup.
Honestly, it was a weird combination, but it's all I had.
"Here. Eat this with me."
She stared at the food for a moment before taking it from me.
"Hmph. Fine."
And then… she kicked me out.
Literally.
I went flying out of her chamber like a ragdoll.
The door slammed shut behind me.
"… Well, that went well."
I sat outside her door, leaning against the cold stone wall.
"I hope this works. Please let it work."
Time passed.
I waited. And waited.
At some point, I fell asleep right there on the doorstep.
Boom!
A burst of energy jolted me awake.
The door swung open, and I saw the most breathtaking sight I'd ever seen.
Hela stood there, surrounded by radiant golden light.
Her black armor shimmered with a divine glow. Wings of light spread behind her, and a halo floated above her head.
I blinked in awe.
"An angel…"
Before I could say anything, darkness overtook me.
Suddenly, I found myself in a grand hall.
The walls were made of gold and adorned with ancient carvings.
At the end of the hall sat a majestic figure on a throne, flanked by two ravens.
I instantly recognized him.
"Odin."
The All-Father himself, with his piercing one-eyed gaze, stared at me.
He smiled.
"Kael Alaric. The one chosen by…"
His voice glitched as he tried to speak a name I couldn't comprehend.
"You've done me a great favor — one no other could achieve."
He stood up and approached me.
"You helped my daughter let go of her anger."
I remained silent, unsure of what to say.
Odin placed a hand on my shoulder.
"As a reward, I grant you the Knowledge of Runes."
Suddenly, ancient symbols flooded my mind.
I gasped as runes of power — symbols that could shape reality itself — etched themselves into my very soul.
"Use them wisely," Odin said.
His expression softened, like a father giving his daughter's hand in marriage.
"And take good care of Hela."
Before I could respond, everything faded to black.
