He circled the last car, inspecting it. It looked exactly like an ordinary green train car, except it had a fluorescent green sheen.
He knocked on it, and the sound was that of metal.
"Amazing, truly amazing! This is the first time I've seen someone travel like this," Johnny exclaimed. Han Yu's trick was unique in the Marvel world. Not everyone could materialize energy like him. Even Odin, the Allfather, needed tools to use his godly power.
Because, in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Odin and the people of Asgard were advanced aliens. Earth's current technology couldn't replicate their tech, so they were worshipped as gods, which wasn't too far off.
A modern person with a lighter traveling to the Stone Age would be seen as a god as well.
"Alright, alright, stop gawking. Let's go," Han Yu urged.
Johnny responded and hopped on his motorcycle, revving the engine and starting off. He had no choice; he'd promised to help find Mephisto. He figured running now wouldn't be a good idea.
Han Yu and Galacta's power was far beyond Johnny's level. Being a chauffeur was the best option, and he wasn't about to be stubborn and fight.
He'd already seen what happened with Nightmare. That guy, who had battled Johnny for a month, would actually be a decent fighter in the Avengers.
He'd been instantly defeated, so Johnny wasn't going to be a fool and argue. They weren't even after him, so why make things difficult?
Inside the car, Loki asked Han Yu, "Can you tell me who we're looking for? Stop keeping me in suspense, it's driving me crazy!"
Loki had been thinking about it the whole time, wondering who Han Yu was after. He'd said, "Originally from Asgard," and also, "her," indicating a female. But Loki couldn't think of anyone who could help Asgard right now.
Han Yu pondered for a moment and said, "I originally wanted to let this develop naturally. Asgard will face a thousand-year disaster, known as 'Ragnarok.' And this person, only Ragnarok can destroy her."
"Ragnarok? I've heard of that. Isn't that the disaster that will destroy Asgard? Who are you talking about? Could it be Surtur?" Loki asked, confused. He continued, "Wait, that doesn't make sense. According to the records in Asgard, Ragnarok is caused by Surtur. The records state that when Surtur's giant sword pierces Asgard, Asgard will be destroyed."
"But now Surtur has colluded with the Frost Giants and the Vanir, and is about to destroy Asgard. Are we actually going to accelerate 'Ragnarok' and let them destroy Asgard?"
Loki's emotions were running high; he felt like he'd been tricked.
The Surtur he spoke of was the leader of the Fire Giants. He was incorporeal, possessing only a crown. When his crown was placed in the Eternal Flame, contained within Asgard's vault, and absorbed the flames, he would become eternal, just like the flame's name.
His power also came from this Eternal Flame.
"Don't worry, I haven't finished yet."
Han Yu gestured with his hand, signaling Loki to calm down. The latter realized he was a bit too eager and nodded apologetically, allowing Han Yu to continue.
"Thousands of years ago, when Odin was still conquering other worlds, he didn't lead the whole team alone. He had a capable right-hand woman, whose power was second only to Odin; she was Odin's Executioner," Han Yu said.
"Odin's Executioner? Neither Thor nor I have ever heard of her," Loki stroked his chin; he didn't remember this person.
Han Yu continued, "It's normal that you haven't heard of her. You weren't even born yet. Your births were probably centuries away. Back then, the Nine Realms were unified. Odin wanted to slowly persuade the remaining dissenters. However, his Executioner didn't see it that way. She wanted to fight, to use force to resolve the issue with those who wouldn't listen, turning the Nine Realms into slaves of Asgard."
Han Yu paused, giving Loki half a minute to digest the information before continuing.
"Because of the Executioner's excessive ambition, Odin, considering her distinguished military achievements, didn't kill her. Instead, he banished her to Hell, never to be released."
At this point, Loki nodded and asked, "But she's been locked up for so long. How could she still care about Asgard? I think the first thing she'd do upon escaping is destroy Asgard."
Han Yu smiled and said, "You're not entirely wrong. If she gets out, she'll definitely turn Asgard upside down, but she definitely won't destroy it."
"Why?" Loki asked.
"Because she is Odin's first child, his eldest daughter, and your and Thor's sister!"
Loki's eyes widened. A sister? He had never heard of having a sister. Thor definitely wouldn't know either; with his boisterous personality, such a thing would be impossible to hide.
"Are you serious?"
Loki's voice trembled slightly. He and Thor had a sister, and that sister had once been Odin's Executioner.
Every generation of the God-King had a direct Executioner, a position second only to the ruler. The fact that Odin hadn't had one was very strange.
He and Thor had asked Odin this question before, but the latter would either remain silent or gaze into the heavens.
Back then, they thought it was because he couldn't find a suitable candidate. Now, they understood. It wasn't that he couldn't find one; he already had one, but that Executioner was banished to Hell by Odin himself, never to return.
"Of course, it's true. Otherwise, why would I go to such lengths to come to Hell? Her strength is formidable. If she were around now, she'd have no problem becoming the God-King of Asgard. That's because her energy comes from Asgard."
"As long as Asgard doesn't fall, she'll have a constant supply of power. That's incredibly powerful, you know." Han Yu said.
Loki nodded in silence, massaging his throbbing temples. He took a moment to digest what Han Yu had said before asking, "That Executioner... my and Thor's sister, what's her name?"
"Hela, the Goddess of Death, Hela," Han Yu said.
The car braked sharply as soon as he spoke the name, nearly sending everyone sliding out of their seats.
At the same time, Johnny's voice came from outside.
"You're looking for Hela?!"
