Thanos didn't want to be a villain.

After a while.

Dio helped Hela up and looked at Kratos, who was covered in wounds and extremely anxious, and said, "Alright, you should know what will happen if a son of a god cannot properly guide his power."

"Please, save my son!" Kratos cried out anxiously to Dio, holding Atreus in his arms.

Let's turn back time.

The battle between Hela and Kratos attracted Baldr, who was searching for giants throughout the Nine Realms.

After Hela used the Hand of Glory to directly confront Kratos's Spartan Wrath, Baldr seized the opportunity to launch a sneak attack on Hela.

As for Lincoln and Atreus beside him, Bader simply ignored them.

Because he was wary of Hela's strength, Baldr, who was fighting unarmed, even went so far as to find a knife.

While stabbing Hela in the kidneys, he also attacked Kratos, who was already exhausted due to a lack of exercise.

Anyone who has played this game knows that Baldr's mouth is just as sharp as Thor's son, Mordy.

Atreus was so angry he felt like his lungs were about to explode.

The power that should have been unleashed by Modi within him was instead triggered by Badr's verbal attack.

Then, Dio and Lincoln appeared.

It's possible that there's a time difference between the worlds they travel to.

It took Dio less than a minute to receive the news and arrive in this world, while Hela, Kratos, and Baldr had already been fighting for almost ten minutes.

Lincoln, on the other hand, wanted to see what extraordinary adventures Hela had that allowed her to travel across the world.

Then they saw a huge guy wearing dark gold armor open a portal and walk out.

Lincoln stared in disbelief at the tall figure before him, with a resolute face, long hair flowing down his shoulders, and an aura that seemed to radiate golden light.

"Emperor?!"

This is Hela's man?!

The Emperor and Hela are together?

Is there any potential?

There's something going on!

Lincoln's thoughts had barely settled when he saw Kratos unleash his power and knock Baldr away, then pick up Atreus with a look of regret.

As for Badr, he was torn to pieces by the man who had just appeared and was suspected to be the Emperor.

Yes, it really was torn to pieces.

Lincoln thought the guy was already dead, since Freya's spell in the myth only protected Baldr from being killed by weapons, and didn't say that he could live after being dismembered.

But under Lincoln's gaze, Bader's body parts were slowly wriggling, as if they were about to come together.

Is it really that amazing?

Lincoln had stopped paying attention to Kratos until he was drawn to him by Kratos's cries.

"Please! Save my son!" Kratos was desperate for a cure, but the tall figure in front of him knew the cause of his son's illness, so he should know how to treat it.

“I don’t know how to treat it, but I know who can save your son.”

Dio pulled out the dagger that had pierced Hela and spoke to Kratos.

"Where!"

Dio pointed out the location of Freya's secluded cottage.

Kratos was indeed too panicked and rushed out without thinking, but was stopped by Lincoln.

"What are you doing!" Kratos saw Lincoln grab him. Although he didn't like Lincoln, he hadn't caused any trouble by following Lincoln's family for so long. But this blockade caused a problem.

Kratos angrily kicked out, trying to send Lincoln flying.

But Lincoln was no pushover either, and he dodged it with a quick somersault.

"Calm down, Kratos! Do you really think I was just going out for fun? The place you're going to is a witch's house, and there are a lot of lava monsters around. How are you going to protect your son if you just go like this?!" Lincoln frowned and shouted angrily. Although he was easygoing, he had a bad temper and wasn't the kind of person who liked to be ignored.

Kratos was taken aback by what he heard. After calming down a bit, he sensed his surroundings and realized that something had appeared.

“I can fly, I’ll take you.” Thinking of the mission, Lincoln grabbed Kratos and leaped into the air.

Dio did not follow; he was tending to the injured Hela.

"Badr's dagger seems to have magic-suppressing properties." Hela's voice softened considerably due to the pain.

"Moreover, even after it's been pulled out, there's still some kind of magnetic field affecting my self-healing ability."

Dio examined Hela's wound. There was indeed some force preventing Hela from healing herself. Now, Hela had a hole in her kidney, just like an ordinary person.

However, after Dio used his psychic powers to heal Hela's injuries, Hela quickly recovered after exhaling a breath of stale air.

"You should rest for a while." Dio placed Hela on a fallen tree trunk.

Hela didn't hesitate and leaned against the tree trunk to recover her energy.

Dio, on the other hand, went to collect Badr's body parts.

“This kind of magic has happened before, but it’s rare to see it grant someone such powerful vitality.” Dio examined the tattoos on Badr’s body.

He discovered that these tattoos had no effect on his self-healing; they were merely decorative items that looked impressive. Only certain special tattoos possessed some kind of runic magic power.

"It seems I'll have to find Freya to get some answers." Dio divided Baldr's body parts into several pieces and used his telekinesis to throw them into different places in the Nine Realms and bury them.

After burying him, Dio glanced at the small mound of earth beneath him; Badr's head was buried there.

"Are you ready? When are we going to find Kratos and the others?" Hela asked, getting up after recovering.

"Let's go once we've rested. After all, we're here, and we need to complete the mission before we can leave our coordinates."

Dio turned back, intending to take Hela to Freya's location.

In this world, Freya and Frigga are the same person, and the other is even the Valkyrie Queen. It can be said that she not only has powerful magical abilities, but also has the combat strength to control Kratos.

Upon arriving at Freya's cabin, the surrounding lava monsters had already turned to ashes. Lincoln, sitting outside, noticed Dio and Hela's arrival.

It was only then that Lincoln took a good look at Dio and discovered that the man seemed to be somewhat different from the emperor he had in mind.

Although the emperor's armor was very flexible, it still looked somewhat bulky. Moreover, no matter how the emperor changed his appearance, he always had long hair.

Especially in Warhammer illustrations, the Emperor is often depicted with long, flowing hair and a longsword in hand.

Dio, on the other hand, had short hair, styled in a bun.

"Huh?" Lincoln rubbed his eyes.

At first glance, didn't she have long, flowing hair?

Regarding this, Dio felt that his hair was too long and obstructed his vision. In the Naruto world, his hair often drifted into his eyes and distracted him.

Although it wouldn't cause him any harm, the fact that something was limiting his view was something Dio wasn't used to.

This is also why Dio did not install a helmet on his power armor.

But having finally grown hair from his bald head, Dio couldn't bear to cut it, so on his way here, he braided his hair into a bun and put it on his head.
