The Collection of The End

——? ? ? ——

Plop, clatter.

The figure like a big black bat fell into the sea, but only submerged for less than half a second before breaking out of the water, completely ignoring the laws of nature and standing on the water.

"..." Atreus raised his hand and touched his face, only to touch his hooked nose. The horned helmet he originally wore, which had the power of Ares, the god of war, was gone.

"Even if Lily has been rescued from certain death twice, is this strange reincarnation still not over?" Atreus looked around at the empty sea: "Could it be that the cause of reincarnation that I guessed at the beginning was wrong?"

I first entered this strange cycle because I read Lily's birth and death dates and had the idea of ​​​​saving her back. Even with Occlumency, I am afraid that this idea cannot be hidden from Shirahoshi, because the curse itself is what she has been doing since. It was borrowed from the "Lord of the Magical Dimension, Vishandi", and Asgardians never pay attention to such trivial matters.

Later, he was still convinced that it was Shirahoshi who did it, and because he had been using the avatar created during the Triwizard Tournament, and was also limited by the capabilities of the avatar itself - until he put on the "Helm of Ares".

The "God of War Ares" who cursed intelligent beings to fight each other naturally deserved his death, but how can I put it, the culprit of repeated beatings that caused Lily's death, Bruce Wayne, who claimed to be "merciless and iron-fisted" this time, is quite enjoyable. Instead of being a ruthless and iron-fisted wife, a eldest sister named Diana tried her best to stop him, but she was also concerned about the restriction of "not attacking women", so he broke her headgear.

Now, if it is confirmed that this "reincarnation" was not caused by Shirahoshi, or at least not actively, then we need to think about its causes and solutions again.

Now, should Lily in this world——

Bo ba! Bo ba!

As soon as Atreus thought of this, he sensed that there were more than ten long objects under the sea surface rushing toward the sea surface. No, it should be said that they were surrounding him in an organized way.

sea ​​snake?

Atreus's toes were just a little bit on the sea surface, and his whole body flew into the air like a real bat, and the combined attacks of more than a dozen "sea snakes" were in vain, only setting off a meaningless huge wave, and until this moment, Only then did their true form—huge tentacles with suckers appear.

"...It turns out to be an octopus." Atreus released the slow-fall spell on himself and looked at the huge shadow below the sea.

Wow-la-

A huge shadow rose up and broke through the sea surface. In the overflowing water, a giant octopus that looked as big as a football field, with a blue-gray body and red eyes, appeared.

It may have looked intimidating, but Atreus had been completely attracted by the figure standing above this huge sea beast.

It was a lady wearing a gorgeous ice blue dress, a golden crown on her head, and holding a golden trident. Her whole person exuded a sense of grace and luxury, with long fiery red hair and green eyes.

"..." Although that face was almost the same as Lily's, Atreus didn't think that silly girl could show such aura.

"You don't look like you have been shipwrecked, stranger," the lady said, her voice soft and rich with a hint of majesty: "Tell me your identity and the purpose of sneaking into the waters of the United Kingdom of Atlantis. If you have no ill intentions, I will guarantee your safety in the name of 'Queen Zebel Mera'.】"

This identity and name...

"My name is 'Loki Odinson', from 'Gotham City'," Atreus replied: "I'm here to find my lover 'Lora Angelberda' who left without saying goodbye. , perhaps you have heard her name, Her Majesty the Queen."

"...]" Mera looked steadily at Atreus in the sky, her lips moved slightly, as if she was communicating with someone, and finally she showed a little surprise: "Is what he said true?"

This lie detection function is probably possessed by the big octopus. Atreus glanced at the giant beast that could be called "Neptune-like".

To judge the authenticity of a sentence, unless you can directly check the truth, you can only judge based on whether the narrator is lying. In this regard, what you are telling is of course the truth, but the subject in the words is not in this world.

Poof, poof, Queen Mera tapped the head of the giant beast under her feet with the handle of the trident in her hand, and the giant beast stretched out several tentacles.

Atreus subconsciously flew a little higher, but found that the target of those tentacles was not him. They stretched out to the "back" of the big octopus as if it were tickling, and then grabbed a man wearing a green dress with a head on his head. A mermaid girl wearing a small silver crown.

"Lily!" Atreus called her "uncontrollably."

"What are you doing?" Lily, who was fighting the tentacles and trying to escape, responded casually. Then she felt something was wrong and looked up in the air: "Who are you?"

Atreus almost raised his forehead... Her ability to turn "I really don't know you" into "pretend not to know her" is considered a talent.

"Perhaps you should explain, if you really 'just went to Gotham and didn't cause any trouble,' then how did this polite gentleman come after you? Dear, dear, Li, Li?] "Queen Mera's tone already had a hint of chill in it.

"How do I know?" Lily has not realized the seriousness of the matter and is still fighting with the tentacles: "Can you let 'Kraken' let go of the tentacles? I don't like this."

This is actually true. From the perspective of Lily in the "Main World", after all, it was the first time she met him. Even if she had some good feelings, it was more than friends and not a lover. But after Atreus has experienced so many worlds, , I already know her personality and preferences quite well, and I will definitely be able to win her easily after I return... Well, this shouldn't be considered cheating.

"Huh...]" Mera sighed and turned to Atreus: "Then, Mr. Odinson, please come with us to the Dragon Palace and sit for a while. Although you are not a shipwrecked person, I still hope you can accept us. Hospitality.]"

"Of course, that is my honor, Your Majesty," Atreus landed slowly and tested: "Gotham and other cities are not peaceful recently. I am just worried about her safety. Since I am just going home, then I I feel relieved.”

"Well, I know, Wayne Enterprises collapsed, the Bat Family was wiped out overnight, Bruce Wayne is looking for ways to resurrect people, and 'super criminals' are doing whatever they want. This is why I asked Lily to come back immediately," Mera The expression became more relaxed: "If you have nothing else to do, you can stay in Atlantis temporarily and return after the chaos on land is over."

Are you preparing for a son-in-law inspection? Speaking of which, Lily in this world has been upgraded to a princess. It’s really... huh? !

Atreus was about to respond when he suddenly realized that something was wrong.

In the corner of his vision, there was a strange black bat phantom flying by. The skin of the giant octopus in front of him was changing from blue-gray to dead white. The most obvious thing was the queen in front of him. Her red lips were fading and her skin was gradually losing its luster. , a head of bright red hair seems to be fading to white.

Let's just say that Bruce Wayne, who had been coming so fast in other worlds, actually stopped moving this time. Could it be that he was so happy watching the ethics drama that he forgot to take action? Now it seems that Batman in this world is not strong enough. At least, he thinks he can't beat Queen Mera and the sea monster Kraken together.

It's a pity that this kind of "time and space guidance" ability is basically nothing to him, the dean of Loki Academy -

Peng!

Atreus suddenly dived to the sea, grabbed the neck of a strange man wearing a red masked tights with a pair of white bats printed on his chest, and then lifted him up:

"——'Do whatever you want'."

"!

! "

The strange man obviously did not expect this situation. He looked around, and between the tentacles of the sea monster and the angry queen rushing over, he suddenly let out a low shout, and then the whole body lit up with dazzling golden thunder and exploded.

When this strange explosion ended, the golden arcs gradually dissipated, and the weirdo and Atreus who restrained him had disappeared.

"Atreus!" Lily exclaimed.

"...]" Mera turned her head and glared at her while arranging her long hair that had turned white inexplicably: "You still say you don't know him?"

"I don't know...I do...but..." The Little Mermaid stared at the place where the two disappeared, feeling lost.
