"Wait, what are you doing?"
"I'm warning you, you better not interrupt His Highness Lothar's battle, or no one will be able to save you if he gets angry."
Although The Other had no fondness for nes, the man who might cause him a crisis of unemploynt, his main concern was Lothar's mood. Intervening in his master's fight right now was a surefire way to provoke his wrath.
After all, in Lothar's eyes, their current power level ant they would only get in the way. Having followed him for so long, The Other had his master completely figured out.
"I know," nes replied calmly. "Though this may offend the Savior, The Other, I am the one who can perfectly subdue Nidhogg."
The ancient Egyptian Pharaoh exuded confidence in every gesture, even under Hela's sharp gaze.
"You rember my na?" The Other asked in surprise. His na was already a bit of a mouthful, and nes was an old immortal who had lived for thousands of years. How could he still rember him?
"I'll never forget the jealousy you showed back then," nes said with a smile. The Other's face flushed, but thanks to his race, no one could tell.
"Alright, I know you haven't seen them in thousands of years, but it's best to save the pleasantries for later," Stephen Strange interjected, cutting off nes, who seed ready to continue talking to The Other.
He hadn't dragged this ancient Pharaoh out of his semi-comatose state just for a reunion. Strange's ultimate goal was to subdue the Demon Dragon Nidhogg and turn it from an apocalyptic beast into an ally in the upcoming cosmic war.
"How are you going to do that?" Hela remained skeptical. Even a Lothar using the Infinity Stones couldn't easily defeat this monstrous dragon. And nes could?
You've got to be kidding . In terms of pure power, even Hela could crush this Pharaoh with a single finger, even with the Horus's Eye. Humans were, after all, just humans. They had their limits. Unless he was no longer human.
nes just smiled, and a golden wind, centered on the Horus's Eye, stirred up the dust from the Asgardian ruins.
Crack.
A faint sound, but it didn't escape Hela's sharp hearing. The edges of the golden Horus's Eye began to crack, and the pupil-like pattern in the center seed to co to life, as if it were a living thing.
Rumble... Rumble... Rumble...
The Asgardian ground, which had been calm since the battle between Lothar and Nidhogg had moved to the sky, began to shake violently.
"What... is that?" The Other stared at the rubble in front of nes. A gray stone slab, dozens of ters tall, slowly rose, casting a giant shadow over everyone.
"This is a blank sealing slate from the Outer God Horus."
"It's the last one in existence." nes held his hands in front of his chest, the golden Horus's Eye floating between his fingers.
The power of an extradinsional space raged on the unguarded lands of Asgard. The dormant slab began to tremble, and the golden wind, infused with extradinsional energy, even caught the attention of the two fighting in the sky.
"What is that?" From Lothar's perspective, he could only see a slab about fifty ters tall and the energy storm around it. He couldn't make out anything else.
"ROAR!!"
A mont of distraction, and the demon dragon seized the opportunity, lashing out its tail and striking Lothar in the back. The powerful force shattered the energy shield on Lothar's body, and the omnipresent venom seeped through the gold armor, seeping into his body.
"Once my power is fully restored, you will be no match for !"
"And when that ti cos, I'll rip you to shreds!" The demon dragon roared, its foul teeth gleaming in the sun.
It was both furious and terrified.
Its power, even when not at its peak, should have allowed it to rampage through the Nine Realms without a care. But its first fight since escaping was with Lothar, soone who could fight it for so long.
And what terrified it even more was that Lothar had no cosmic origin from this universe, aning his power was being restricted by the rules of this universe, yet he was still so terrifyingly strong.
Nidhogg felt that the outside world had changed too fast. It hadn't kept up with the tis.
"That's enough."
Lothar's power surged, evaporating the venom and negative status effects. He tilted his head, cracking his knuckles.
"I think I've got your power level figured out."
His voice was calm, and a subtle smile of satisfaction ford on his lips. The blue screen in front of him showed all of Nidhogg's combat data had been collected. A flicker of excitent had climbed his brow.
"Lothar! Move!"
"Savior! Please move!"
"Your Highness Lothar! Get out of the way!"
The sudden shouts made the smile on Lothar's face vanish. The sense of danger behind him made all the hairs on his body stand up. He imdiately teleported, moving away from the aerial battlefield.
BOOM!!!
An energy seal, which had appeared from the ground, shot up and passed through Lothar's afterimage, striking the chest of the Demon Dragon Nidhogg.
The magic formations of the Sorcerer Supre appeared above and around the dragon. Dozens of Stephen Strange duplicates, standing on the formations, chanted arcane spells. nes, holding the Horus's Eye, maintained the output of the sealing energy.
"What's going on?" Lothar landed with a frown. He saw Hela and the others standing next to the old man.
"To be honest, I have no idea. But it looks like that demon dragon is about to be sealed," Hela said, looking up at the dragon, which was now tangled in countless red energy threads.
She wasn't an expert on sealing, but she had been sealed by Odin before and was familiar with the energy's properties.
The energy erupting from both Strange and nes was for a seal. But... could Nidhogg actually be sealed? Were these two humans that powerful? Hela was full of doubt.
"ROOOAR!!!"
"No!!!"
"HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?!!!!"
Hela's doubt was shattered by Nidhogg's roars. Its massive body was forcefully pulled into the fifty-ter-tall blank stone slab, bit by bit, until it was finally nothing more than a snarling, contorted mural.
[Sealing Date: 4369th year of the Asgardian Calendar]
[Sealing Location: The skies of Asgard]
[Generated Na: Nidhogg, The Asgardian Sky Dragon (can be changed)]
Lothar looked up, witnessing this strange sight firsthand. The mont the mural of the demon dragon was created, a series of information appeared on the empty part of the stone slab.
Until...
"It's been a long ti, my Savior."
After completing the seal, the Pharaoh nes turned and knelt before Lothar, a look of fervent devotion and reverence on his face.
