"We need to leave, fast. Hela, come."
I said after taking everything of some value. Now was the best and probably the final time to get out of here, as I feared soon either reinforcements came, in much more soldiers and experts from the Asgard's side, or maybe even Odin himself would come, that would be catastrophic.
"Comming."
Answered a female voice in the shadows as Hela appeared out of nowhere and went to me.
I then teleported us all to the nearest space-time rift leading to the Underworld and disappeared from the Helheim.
From a distance, high in the sky, I could see pitch-black ravens circling as they were flying there happily.
'Hugin and Mirim... so he was watching the whole time.'
I muttered as I stepped into the space rift after everyone went ahead of me. After I stepped through, every space rift across the Helheim that was leading to the Underworld suddenly collapsed simultaneously.

Meanwhile, the Asgard's Royal Throne Room
"My King, the mission was an utter failure. We fell into the trap, and only several Valkyries and I survived; everyone else was killed."
Said Göndul as she bowed to her king.
"How?"
Asked Odin, feeling as if he had aged by an entire decade just within one second.
"Hela had a helper. Zeoticus Gremory-Lucifer helped her to construct some fearsome magical trap formation that was apparently tied to Hela's banishment as an activation moment. In an instant, when she was banished, she was teleported out, and the spell array exploded, killing almost all Royal Guards and Valkyries in an instant and severely injuring the rest. I managed to save myself and several Valkyries as we were far behind them; when I noticed it was trapped, it was late, as Hela tricked Vidalinot into attacking her from close range."
Explained Göndul as two black ravens flew into the room. As they circled around the throne until they landed on Odin's shoulders and started screeching.
"My King, what happened to Vidal and other Lesser Gods?"
Asked Göndul; as she disappeared from Helheim moment, she noticed something was amiss.
"All Lesser Gods are dead. Vidal is essential to only his Divine Soul surviving, but his divinity is lost. Either he will reincarnate as mortal Aesir or spend millennia recuperating. That Lucifer descendant was really throughout and went on how to deal with Gods and kill them down permanently properly. Probably the only reason why Vidal's soul survived, with his strength, he couldn't destroy the soul of Pinnacle Intermediate God with Pantheon mark."
Explained Odin, while Göndul was deeply shocked.
Now the strength of Asgard decreased even further. The loss of 12 Lesser Gods Weak Ranks was bad, even if they were low-ranking Gods, but they were all Royal Guards and experienced warriors. And the loss of Vidal was fucked up absolutely, as he had high chanced to become Greater God within the next two centuries.
"Mobilize all armies; now Royal Guards and Valkyries are severely weakened, there are high chances that Malekith, Surtr, or Laufey will strike."
Ordered Odin in anger.

Somewhere in the Jotunheim, a world of eternal ice
"Oh? Odin lost so many, and even Vidal was essentially killed?"
Asked a deep voice.
"Immediately order mobilization and start offensive at Asgard."
Said the voice after a short time.
***
At the same time, in the fire world of Muspelheim.
"Send out the legions. Kill every Asgardian you find."
Said the voice belonging to the huge shadow figure of flames
***
Somewhere in the dark shadow world of Swartalfheim
"My King, word of Asgard's loss is spreading. Laufey and Surtr are already sending armies to clean off their world of Asgard's outposts and soon would attack their holdings in other worlds. What shall we do?"
Asked an armored man as he looked at the throne, where a shadowy figure was sitting.
"Send in assassins and kill important generals in the army and Royal Sorcerers. Try to assassinate as many important figures in the kingdom as possible, causing as much chaos as possible. Harass their fortresses, destroy their supply lines, kill their leaders, cripple their infrastructure."
Ordered figure on the throne as its eyes shined red.

At the same time, Underworld, Gremory Territory.
Now entire Gremory Territory was more lively compared to before. My population increased by approximately 160 million, and I just gained more than 40 million soldiers.
This was a great boon for me; hopefully, that Hela would be as cooperative as she said she would be. I was aware that she had a few screws loose in her head, but so what... nobody was perfect. As long as she would kill my enemies, everything was okay.
Now the next thing on my to-do list was to go to Takamagahara and talk with Shinto Pantheon about the plans. The situation in Shinto Pantheon was peaceful as the entire faction was ruled by the iron hand of Amaterasu, who was the pinnacle of Greater God.
Hopefully, it will go better compared to this.
"I have promised Vena to take her on a date to Agreas... I will go before taking a trip to Takagahamara."
I muttered.
Venelana would be happy that I remembered my promise, as I was really too busy with many things. Hopefully, after the war, I will have some peace and time to relax, but now I must strive to increase my power to the maximum possible for a better future.
"You have returned, Zeoticus."
Said a voice belonging to the Grayfia who was managing Fuerig in my absence. Due to her status as my fianceé and personally chosen by Lucifer, she had high authority, and nobody dared to question her. And even if they did, she was pretty strong, so she could easily beat anybody under Satan-Class.
"Indeed, please take over overseeing accommodation of Aesir and Vanir that fled from Asgard. Coordinate with Hela in that regard. She should be somewhere there or here. How were you holding on managing the territory in my absence?"
I asked.
"We need to leave, fast. Hela, come."
I said after taking everything of some value. Now was the best and probably the final time to get out of here, as I feared soon either reinforcements came, in much more soldiers and experts from the Asgard's side, or maybe even Odin himself would come, that would be catastrophic.
