Saint Seiya Evil Skull

Seeing that Balder was still very weak, Alberich once again used his ability to continuously draw vitality from the World Tree and carefully transferred the vitality into Balder's body, hoping to help Balder recover as soon as possible.

After a long moment, Balder slowly rose to his feet. Though his strength had declined significantly, he seemed to be brimming with boundless power. At the same time, Balder could clearly sense a profound shift in his state. Not only had his body become lighter and more agile, but his mind seemed to have become exceptionally sharper. Even more astonishingly, he felt his current strength had surpassed that of his initial Seventh Sense stage.

Thinking of this, Balder couldn't help but feel a deep sense of gratitude. He bowed deeply to Albelisi with full respect to express his sincere gratitude.

You know, before this, when he learned that he had unfortunately been cursed by the gods, Balder had fallen into despair. At that time, he had already made up his mind and planned to minimize the use of his immortal body from now on to delay the loss of his vitality and silently accept the arrangement of his fate.

However, just when he was completely desperate and ready to accept his fate, Aluberisi was like a ray of light in the darkness. It only took him a few days to easily dispel the curse that once made him feel extremely scared and helpless.

After gaining a deeper understanding of Albelisi's current strength, Balder was filled with admiration and gratitude for this benefactor. In his view, Albelisi had not only helped him out of his predicament, but had given him a second life! Balder knew that he would never be able to repay this kindness in his lifetime.

Albelisi waved his hand nonchalantly, but his eyes were still fixed on the majestic World Tree. He murmured, "Tell me, what should I do with you?" As if sensing Albelisi's gaze and words, the World Tree seemed to respond. Its thick trunk trembled slightly, and the lush leaves on the branches rustled. Then, it gently shook its branches, its movements gentle and soothing, like a child trying to please its master.

"No matter what, you can't stay in this land of Asgard anymore. As long as you stay here for one more day, my heart will be uneasy. So, you'd better make preparations in advance! I plan to move you to other places. But during this period, you must not have any bad thoughts, otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless, I will kill you without mercy!" After saying this, Arubelisi fell into deep thought.

After much deliberation and weighing the pros and cons, Alberich finally relented and decided to spare the World Tree's life. After all, for a plant to grow to such a large and vibrant size is truly a remarkable feat.

Furthermore, in the past, the World Tree had continuously provided Alberich with a vast supply of precious vitality. Thinking back carefully, it had always been the World Tree that silently provided, never once feeling indebted to him. Instead, he had been the one greedily draining the World Tree's vitality time and again, causing it to visibly shrink compared to its former self. Thinking of this, Alberich couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt.

Although the World Tree is an evil tree in the world of Saint Seiya, at least until now, Alberich has not found it going out to do evil, and it has no chance to go.

Hearing that Alberich was so merciful as to say that he would let it go, the huge body of the World Tree trembled noticeably, and then its lush branches and leaves began to shake violently, as if expressing its deep gratitude to Alberich in this way.

Just as Alubelisi and Balder turned to return to the surface, Alubelisi suddenly paused, lost in thought, as if struck by something important. A moment later, he reached into the storage barrier he carried with him and pulled out a faintly glowing heart—the heart of Andreas Riese!

Arubelisi carefully held the heart, carefully feeling the fluctuations of power contained within it. However, he soon frowned, as he realized that the divinity within the heart was draining away at an alarming rate.

After some thought, Albelis finally understood that Andreas Reese was just a mortal body borrowed by Loki. Although Loki had given him a certain degree of divine power, it could not be compared with the real gods. Therefore, the heart of this body naturally could not possess pure divinity.

Thinking of this, Arubelisi couldn't help but feel a trace of disgust in his heart: "Putting someone else's heart in my storage space is really disgusting..."

Without hesitation, Alberich activated the power of his inner cosmos. A brilliant light burst forth from his palm, instantly enveloping the heart. As the light gradually dissipated, the remaining divinity within the heart was completely dispelled, ensuring that Loki would not leave any dangerous traps within it.

After completing this series of actions, Alberich casually waved his hand, and the heart that had lost its divinity and only retained pure energy streaked across the sky like a meteor and flew towards the towering World Tree behind him.

Sensing the heart's approach, the World Tree instantly grew extremely excited, its massive frame trembling uncontrollably. Countless thick, flexible branches seemed imbued with life, dancing with almost manic abandon. From afar, these interwoven branches resembled a vast, sweeping green net, precisely and steadily catching the hurtling heart.

Immediately afterwards, the World Tree, without the slightest hesitation, swiftly merged the heart into its trunk, eagerly beginning the process of absorbing the powerful energy contained within. The entire scene was both magnificent and mysterious, leaving one breathtakingly stunned.

"This heart of Loki is given to you as a reward. Don't do such unscrupulous things in the future." Albelis stood where he was, with his arms folded across his chest, and warned the World Tree with a serious face.

After hearing these words, the World Tree gently shook its branches a few times, as if nodding to indicate that it understood.

Then, Albelisi turned and waved to Balder, who had been following him, asking him to follow. Together, they walked towards the exit of the barrier.

After Albelisi successfully stepped out of the barrier, he didn't leave immediately. Instead, he stood still, concentrated his mind, and once again cast the sealing technique, consolidating and strengthening the barrier around the World Tree. Glittering runes flew from his hands, integrating into the existing barrier in an orderly manner, making the barrier's defense even more powerful and reliable.

After doing all this, Albelis finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then led Balder away and returned to Asgard.

As for the fate of the World Tree that had received Loki's heart, Alberich had no definite answer yet. After all, relocating such a large tree was no easy task, and he had to proceed with extreme caution. Otherwise, if it truly became an evil tree after leaving Asgard, he would be in trouble. It would be better to deal with it beforehand! It would save him trouble!

Therefore, Alubelisi decided to put this matter aside for the time being and make plans when the time is right!
