Chapter 1166: Meeting Hel After A While
Anyways, after getting rid of the elixirs and summoning and contracting my new spirit, I looked at the items again. There was still a lot.

"Hmm, alright, before opening the treasure chests, let's use this weird Scroll first!"
I grabbed the Divine Undead Summon Scroll I had obtained before and used it.
Apparently, it allowed me to summon a Divine Undead, which meant an Undead with a Divine Ember!
None of my risen Undead had that though, they were very strong, some as strong as SS Ranks, but they had no such power, and couldn't really develop it.
Divine Embers were a very unique power, so whatever Undead I would get from this, it could have an immense growth potential.
Anyways, let's use it.
"With you?" I wondered. "Wait, is Aunt Hel inviting me to sit at her side?!"
I felt like a little girl again, being carried by my parents.
"Don't call me Aunt!" she angrily said. "Now come here already!"
She grabbed me and pulled me up with a surprising display of immense physical strength. If I'm right she's the daughter of Titans, so doesn't that make her a Titan too? Interesting. Then the strength makes sense, yeah.
"Um, so where do I...?"
"Just sit here, there!"
She forced my butt to sit right by her side, she was quite the rude old lady, wasn't she?!
"Ouch, your throne is as hard as bricks though, auntie! Does your little butt not hurt?" I wondered.
"Stop talking nonsense already! Are you always just joking about everything?!" she asked angrily.
"Look, I wouldn't be trying to cope with jokes if you hadn't dragged me down here out of nowhere! I got slightly scared; you see!" I sighed. "Anyways, what do you want to talk about? What happened is already in the past, it cannot be changed. And my desire to descend the Tower remains unchanged. Also! You never ever mentioned it to me! I thought you were going to reveal me the truth of things and all of that?"
"Hahhh..." Hel sighed, revealing a little ghost coming from her mouth, and then swallowing it back up. Was that her soul?! "Look Maria, that scroll you used does indeed have the purpose of letting you summon a Divine Undead. And you'll be getting one from my personal army. However, it also allows you to get down here for like an hour, so let's enjoy it while it lasts. Let's talk. First of all, your status as a Goddess. The Divine Thrones you took from Baldr and
Oceania."
"Right, okay, yeah... Huh? What about that?" I wondered.
"Sigh... What do you think is going to happen to them?!" Hel asked angrily. "If you leave a world, you'll still be the owner of the divine thrones, but their power will be emptied too! You need to make a choice, you either go down and relinquish your thrones, or stay here and continue being the goddess of such thrones. If you leave, the world might grow weaker or even more, Odin might try to steal the thrones from you."
"So that's what you mean..."
She sure seems serious about it.
I should make a decision then.
And my decision is...
"I refuse."
