Chapter 31 - Chapter 31: Engulfed in Flames

*Elsif and Loki sense the presence of monsters*

Loki: Elsif

Elsif: Yes. We'd better leave right now

Shu: Okay

Loki: While I take care of them, you run away

Elsif: Got it

*An impressive amount of energy begins to come out of Loki's body*

Shu: It's scary...

Loki: Come for me, you bastards

*Loki is shown attacking the hundreds of monsters*

Elsif: Now

*Elsif, Sara and Shu run away*

Loki: I'm sorry what I'll do to you old friends

Loki: Zetsubō no Uzu (Vortex of Despair)

*A dark vortex spawns in the sky*

Elsif: What the hell?

*A large amount of energy falls on all monsters disintegrating them completely*

*Loki manages to perceive a child's laughter*

*Loki's face of contempt is shown*

Loki: I'll kill you; I'll kill you all wretches

*Hundreds more monsters begin to arrive*

*A vacant look of Loki is shown*

Loki: Kunō no Kusari (Chain of Agony)

*The monsters are shown screaming in pain as their energy begins to be absorbed by Loki's technique*

Shu: Are you sure he doesn't need help?

Elsif: Maybe, but if I go now, he'll finish me off

Sara: It's around here

*Heimdall's Golden Sword shown*

Shu: Thanks for the help

Elsif: There's no matter, now go back to Asgard

Sara: Okay

Elsif: And don't forget, don't tell anybody what's going on here

Shu: Okay

Elsif: I hope to see you next time *Smiles*

Sara: We also expect the same

*Heimdall's sword creates a rainbow bridge*

*Sara and Shu bring their hand close to the bridge and it absorbs them*

Elsif: Now what's next?

*A sword touches Elsif's back*

Unknown 26: What's Next Is Take Me to Loki

Elsif: Who are they?

Unknown 26: Even if I explained it to you, you wouldn't understand it

*The three hooded men are shown behind Elsif*

Elsif: *Think* I'm glad I saved them

*Eden is shown fighting Garm*

*A blow between the two causes them to back off*

Garm: Not bad, you've gotten stronger

Eden: Thank you, but that's not all

*The energy of Eden begins to flow and is centered in his fist*

*Eden and Garm begin to exchange attacks, but neither is injured*

Garm: *Think* It's been more than 10 seconds of you're probably tired

*Fist of Eden still shown with energy*

Garm: Hey, hey, are you serious?

Hela: *Think* Not bad, in a short time it has evolved again in an incredible way

Garm: *Think* This is dangerous, I can barely hold my energy in my fangs, if I ever falter, he will win

Eden: *Think* Just a little, a little more

*Eden goes all out on the attack and Garm begins to avoid each of the blows he throws*

*The energy of Eden suddenly passes to your foot*

*Eden manages to land a kick on Garm, but he manages to block it*

Garm: *Think* That's been close...

*Eden appears at high speed in front of Garm*

Garm: Shit

*Eden lands his punch squarely in Garm's face, sending him into a wall*

*Garm is shown very weak and spitting blood*

Garm: *Think* What was that? His movements are very different from the last fight, he looks like a beast without control

*Red Eden's pupil shown*

Hela: Wow...

Garm: *Think* I've got to move right away, if I don't, he'll tear me to pieces

*Garm senses a murderous presence from Eden*

*Hela grabs Eden by the shoulder and stops him*

Hela: Enough is enough, I declare you the winner of the fight

*Eden's murderous aura disappears completely*

*Garm falls to the ground with no energy*

Eden: Let's go! I did it! I was finally able to defeat him

Hela: *Think* It's surprising, in a short time he managed to master his new skill, now he just needs to perfect the delayed hitting

Eden: I'm sorry, I think I overdid it a bit

Garm: You don't have to apologize; you've completely defeated me. You've become so much stronger

Eden: *Bows* Thank you for joining me in my trainings

Hela: It looks like you've gotten your first step

Eden: Now what's next?

Hela: Now your next opponent, it'll be me

Eden: Really? Why so soon? I haven't mastered delayed hitting yet

Hela: Some unforeseen events have arisen, so in 3 days your final exam will be

Eden: *Think* Really? She's a monster, I don't even reach her feet

Hela: Your final exam will be to hit me, that's all

Eden: You say it like it's that easy...

Hela: When I say punches, they don't consider roses or anything like that, it has to be a real blow

Eden: Understood. So, today I'm going to do my first test

Hela: Really? I thought you wanted to rest

Eden: The best thing will be to prove that I am capable

Hela: Interesting

*Eden grabs his sword*

Eden: You can use weapons, right?

Hela: Anything you want

Eden: Okay, you'd better get ready

Hela: Whenever you want

*Eden launches himself at high speed and attacks with his sword non-stop*

*Hela stops the sword of Eden with her fingers and kicks him in the stomach and then in the face*

*Eden hits one of the walls*

Eden: *Think* He's not wrong, his power is incredible, I could barely see when he hit me

*Eden cleanses the blood from his face*

Eden: *smiles* interesting...

*Eden begins to wrap his sword in energy*

Hela: Wow, not bad

Eden: Dark Flames

*The sword is set on fire*

Eden: I made it

Hela: *Think* It's not a bad idea. The only problem is that he doesn't seem to have much energy left

*Eden at high-speed attacks Eden head-on*

Hela: *Thinks* Very predictable

*Eden throws his sword from a distance at Hela*

Hela: What?

*Hela hits Eden's back and he appears right in front of Hela*

*Hela grabs Eden's leg and slams him to the ground*

Hela: It wasn't a bad idea, but you're still very slow

*Eden is shown on the ground without energy*

*Eden rises after several hours*

Garm: It looks like you were more tired than usual this time

Eden: Did I lose?

Garm: Yes. The Queen swept the floor with you

Eden: A very nice way to say it *Smile*

Garm: You'll need more than just brute force to even brush against the queen

Eden: I know, today I just wanted to measure the difference in power between the two of us and boy is it scary, I can't even measure all their power

Garm: It is said that my queen has a power at the Diamond rank level

Eden: What a crushing difference

Garm: But that doesn't mean you can't accomplish your mission

Eden: What do you mean?

Garm: If my queen decided to train you it was not because she was asked, but because she saw potential in you, that means that she trusts that you can give her a full blow in a few days

Eden: I hope so...

*The three days pass and Eden is shown in front of Hela*

Hela: The day has come; will you be able to achieve it?

Eden: If I wasn't able to, I wouldn't be standing here

Hela: *Smile* Good answer. I hope it's not just words

*Hela and Eden are shown expelling a large amount of energy*

Eden: *Think* I don't intend to hold back

*The Sword of Eden begins to take on dark energy*

Hela: *A little nervous* Hey, hey, are you serious?

*Eden goes on the attack and starts launching attacks incessantly*

Eden: Dark Flames

*Eden's technique puts Hella in trouble*

Hela: *Think* It's been very close

*Eden begins to continuously throw his technique, but Hela dodges everything without problems*

Hela: *Thinks* It looks like he hasn't learned from his previous fight

Eden: Dark Blaze

*A large flame comes out just below Hela*

*Hela manages to see the attack and her suit is burned*

Hela: *Think* At what point did you learn that?

Eden: *I think* That's been close, just a little longer

*Eden begins to expel flames from his body*

Hela: *Think* It seems that now it is going all out, I better get ready

Eden: Darkness Technique: Yami no Yaiba (Blade of Darkness)

*A very quick cut cuts one of the mountains in the middle of the place*

Hela: *Think* He's gotten stronger, much stronger than I thought and then I can imagine

*Hela's arm shown with a small cut*

Garm: *Thinks* That was very fast, I wasn't even able to see it

Hela: *Think* To respect your will I'll have to get serious

*Hela begins to expel a gigantic amount of energy from her body*

*Eden feels Hela's great presence*

*Skeletons begin to hide after seeing Hela's power*

*In Hela's hand appears a staff made of bone and blood*

Eden: *Smile* How funny

*Hela and Eden begin to exchange attacks with their weapons*

*All of Helheim feels the tremor of the combat that is happening*

Garm: *Think* They're both very fast, I can barely make them out

*An attack between the two makes the two retreats*

Eden: Darkness Technique: Yami no Yaiba

Hela: Yami no Sakeme

*The technique of both impacts causing a great noise*

*Impact creates a large hole in the ground*

Hela: I expected nothing less from my apprentice

Eden: Thank you, but this is not over yet

*There is a small break in space and Hela is fully impacted by the cut of Eden*

*Hela hits one of the mountains while Eden's blow is shown to make her bleed*

Garm: That was... A delayed coup

Hela: *Think* I could barely react...

*Hela's abdomen is shown with a shallow cut, while her focused energy fades away*

*Hela spits blood while Eden falls to his knees from exhaustion*

Eden: Did I make it?

*Hela is shown watching Eden*

Hela: Not only did you make it, you exceeded my expectations

Eden: Thank goodness...

*Hela points her hand towards Eden*

*Eden's clothes begin to change and his clothes are black with white details like a kind of robe*

Hela: Eden Yomi, you've officially passed the test. You stop being my apprentice, to be a Veteran. I officially give you my approval as a teacher

Eden: Thank you...

*Eden falls from exhaustion*
