"It's a long story, so it would be best if you simply follow to my palace," Thor said with sincerity in his voice.
'But I need to go back to the ship. I promised Sophi and others that I would be back in a minute, but more than an hour has passed.' Nero pondered for a while, then thought, 'But I have to get my weapon too.'
Nero glanced at Thor and said, "Pull any weird moves, and I will obliterate this entire island."
"There is no other strong being on his island— other than . If I can't defeat you, then no one can."
Thor flew to his palace, and Nero followed him.
'I can't believe I already found two of my weapons in just a short ti.'
Thor landed on the balcony of the palace and walked forward into the hallway.
'The palace looks great, and it has a protective barrier cast around it.' After walking in the hallway, Nero couldn't shake his feelings. 'What is this feeling? I don't understand.'
"My love!" A red-haired woman dashed to Thor and hugged him, saying, "You are back. What happened to your hair?"
Thor looked back at Nero and whispered sothing in the woman's ears.
The woman nodded and glared at Nero before leaving.
"What did you say to her?" Nero asked with a curious look on his face.
After a brief silence, Thor uttered, "I just asked her to go and lock herself in a room."
"And why is that?"
"No matter how powerful one is, he or she would always be afraid of losing his loved ones," Thor answered in a solemn voice.
"I… can understand that," Nero nodded in agreent.
"To be honest, there can be much worse things than just losing your loved ones," Thor uttered and turned to Nero.
"Uhh… I don't like how you talk to in pieces. If you want to tell sothing, then say it in a simple word because I don't understand Gods' language," Nero remarked with a sigh.
"You know… like, having your loved ones betray you. Or your enemy seducing them or hypnotize them into doing things they would never even wished to."
Nero scoffed and clicked his tongue as he shook his head at Thor: "I am not into such disgusting stuff, so don't worry about it. I have my own needs and my own… nevermind."
"What's worse is you can control my body as per your command. I can't imagine what I would do if you command to kill my love." Thor's voice was full of terror.
"I am not that evil…" Nero gazed at his bracelet and added, "At least for now."
"That's why gods and demons don't have any affection towards anyone; they have no weakness."
"I don't know about gods, but as for demons; the lower and greater rank demons are just mindless monsters born from filth, so of course they won't have any affection. But as for the higher and archdemons, they do have affections, but it's no better than having no affection at all."
Nero squinted his eyes and questioned, "How did you beco a fallen god, by the way?"
"When I was an angel, I was tasked to win the war against humans."
"Are you referring to the last war between the humans and the gods? After that, the gods stopped answering the humans' prayers?" Nero asked after rembering what Laira had told him.
"Yes. I lost many friends in that war, but in the end— the heavens won the war. And after that, I was promoted to be a god."
"Can we get to the part where you beco a fallen god? I am getting late, like seriously," Nero comnted.
"During that war, I t a girl. Bathed in the blood of her friends, beautiful red hairs and crimson eyes—"
"Argh! Just say it was a love affair between a god and a human. The most forbidden things for gods. And that's why heavens kicked you out."
Thor squinted his eyes and glanced at Nero with a puzzled and confused look on his face: "What are you talking about? There is no such rule where a god can't fall in love with a mortal."
"There isn't?" Nero asked with a surprised look on his face.
Thor shook his head and said, "Nope."
"What in the actual fuck happened to the heavens after I was sealed? Since when did gods start breaking their own rules?" Nero muttered, then clenched his fist after rembering sothing.
"But since they are gods, they can do anything. No rules for them, no limitations, no law, no nothing!" he murmured violently.
"Are you okay?" Thor asked as a joke.
"When I was around ten years old, my master told about the rules and laws of realms. She said, 'No matter how strong one becos, they will never be able to go past the rules and laws of the realms'. And then my curious-ass asked, 'Who made these rules and laws for the realms?'. She replied with, 'Only gods would know about that'. Then my stupid-ass got on my dragon and flew to the heavens to get the answers; But I was nearly killed by the heavens on my way there, and I ended up getting lost in the rifts between the realms."
"Your master must be soone great that you ended up being this strong," Thor remarked.
"Yeah…" After a brief silence, Nero shrugged his mories aside and asked, "So if the love affair was permitted, then how did you beco a fallen angel?"
"Since I had beco a god, I made that girl immortal," Thor answered.
"The red-haired girl from before?"
"Yeah, her na is Jane; Although her real na was sothing else like Jeanet or sothing along with the words. But it's been thousands of years, so I don't rember her full na, so I call her Jane."
"Please don't tell her I don't rember her na," Thor added.
Nero's eyes twitched as he kicked Thor in the back, and he was slamd into the wall.
"Why did you do that?!" Thor shouted.
"Nothing." Nero shrugged his shoulders and said, "Jane was the na of my sister."
