The next day, the sun was bright, and the sky was cloudless.
Accompanied by a stir in the flowerbed, Hera rubbed her sleepy eyes, awakening from her deep slumber.
“Awake? Come on, change into your clothes.”
The familiar, gentle voice came from outside; Teacher Luo En stood on the roadside, holding her black and green battle garment that could control Death Divinity, smiling.
A breeze blew by, and Hera looked down at her clothes that were nearly corroded away, she suddenly realized and hurriedly took the battle garment her teacher handed her, quickly dressing herself neatly.
Luo En looked her over carefully, then smiled in admiration:
“Hmm, not bad, valiant and impressive, this suit also suits you well.”
Hearing this, Hera’s resistance to the battle garment eased slightly, and a hint of a smile couldn’t help but appear on her cold face.
“Cough~~”
Just as she wanted to get closer to her teacher, a dull cough came from the side.
Hera looked towards the sound, only to see Odin approaching from a fork in the road.
But…
Hera’s gaze landed on her father’s darkly bruised eyes, her face showing surprise:
“Your eyes…”
“Oh, drank too much last night, didn’t see the road clearly, accidentally hit the doorframe.”
Odin casually replied, his gaze somewhat elusive.
Hera, hearing this, frowned:
“Hit the door? What kind of doorframe could make a Divine King end up in such a state?”
“Ha ha, he used too much force, caught himself off guard, I can vouch for that! Last night, it was I who helped him back to rest.”
Luo En chuckled, trying to smooth over the awkward moment, and the make-believe act inadvertently earned Odin a roll of the eyes.
After briefly dismissing Hera’s concerns, Luo En then smoothly changed the topic:
“Alright, forget about this. Regarding your Death Divine Power, last night I discussed it with Odin and thought of a solution.”
“What solution?”
Hearing a question concerning her own situation, Hera’s eyes lit up, she asked excitedly.
Odin and Luo En exchanged a glance, the mismatched-old-face smiled and said:
“The problem with your body is because you can’t effectively control the surge of Death Divinity inside. Moreover, realms like Asa Divine Domain and Valhalla are filled with strong Life Divinity, which easily clashes with your own power, hence causing your Death Divinity to go out of control…”
Then, Luo En took over the conversation, adding:
“So, we think changing your environment, calming down, might help you gradually control the Death Divinity within your body, stopping these symptoms.”
“Change environment? To where?”

Hera furrowed her brows, puzzled.
“Helheim!” Odin answered solemnly, explaining further, “That place is the realm of the deceased, the area richest with the essence of death. Moreover, the Death Divine Power you possess was collected by me from Helheim. As long as you go there, your condition should improve.”
Hera suddenly realized but then hesitated, “But don’t we still have to fight Warner?”
“No need, Warner has been defeated repeatedly, realizing they can’t win, they have already sent envoys to sue for peace. All your credit.”
Luo En smiled in response, patting the shoulder of his student with approval.
However, Hera was still worried:
“Can Warner be trusted? What if they renege?”
“Don’t worry, the issue with Midgard has been resolved, with Loki and I working together, even if they want to pull any tricks, they won’t be able to stir up any trouble.”
Odin assured confidently, then smilingly retorted,
“Even if you don’t trust them, don’t you trust your teacher?”
That’s true!
Hera nodded, dismissing her doubts about the Warner Divine Race, and solemnly said:
“Then, once the two races officially form an alliance, I’ll go visit Helheim.”
“No need, leave the peace talks to Odin. Your health can’t be delayed any longer, go to Helheim to recuperate as soon as possible, I’ll accompany you.”
Hera was initially reluctant, but hearing the last sentence, she unconsciously nodded.
Seems it might not be so bad to travel with the teacher.
And having received her consent, Luo En also breathed a sigh of relief.
“Alright, I’ll send you there now!” Odin seized the opportunity to say, then ordered the Immortal Palace Guard to open the Rainbow Bridge.
The colorful bands of light hung down, Luo En took Hera’s hand, stepping into the realm of the dead enveloped in ash-grey mist.
In the annals of Nordic Mythology, the realm “Helheim,” cold and dark, requires the departed souls to ride on horseback or in a carriage (both horse and carriage are cremated with the owner) for nine days and nights to reach.
After traversing for nine days and nights, one would arrive at “Gjoll River”. This river marks the boundary of Helheim, with a Crystal Bridge plated in gold, suspended by a single strand of hair. The bridge’s gruesome guardian, Modgud, demands a blood toll from anyone who wishes to cross. After passing the Gjoll River, one must travel through a forest, amongst trees with only leaves of iron. Beyond the Iron Tree Forest lies “Hel’s Gate,” the massive gate guarded by the formidable Hellhound Garm, which can only be appeased with Helra Cake; otherwise, it would tear off the soul’s skin.
Past “Hel’s Gate,” there is another river “Slyde,” filled with sharp knives.
Crossing this river, one reaches Hera’s palace “Elyudnir,” where the bedroom is named “Destruction,” the bed called “Sorrow,” and the curtains named “Fire.”
