Unrivaled Demon's Odyssey

"If this is not your weapon, then whose weapon could it be?" Thor wondered.

"This weapon doesn't even look mythical or legendary. It might just be an ordinary weapon used to seal the soul of… whoever that skull belongs to," Nero tittered.

"Are you sure you don't find that weapon dangerous?" 

"I can indeed feel a strong aura coming from it, but I don't feel any power from it. What about you? What do you feel when you see it?"

Thor lowered his gaze and stared at the dagger for a while, and uttered, "I feel it calling me."

"Then maybe it's a cursed weapon, and you are so weak that it has charmed you," Nero shrugged.

"But I am a god, and I shouldn't be able to get charmed into the curse's grasp."

Nero raised his brows and focused his gaze on the hues that were coming out of the dagger.

'The bracelet did respond to it. My guess is that the dagger and this bracelet are made from the same material, and that's why they are attracted to each other.'

"Has anyone ever tried to take off the dagger from the skull?" Nero asked with a curious look on his face.

"There were many who talked about taking it out, and it wasn't as though I had prohibited any of my soldiers or maids to come in this area. Some soldiers would always come and ask me for permission to take out the dagger," Thor replied.

"And? Was anyone ever able to take it out?" Nero questioned without taking his eyes off the dagger.

"Forget about taking it out; no one ever even tried to take it out."

Nero furrowed his brows and said, "What about you? You never tried to take it out?"

Thor conjured Mjolnir and tossed it up and down and left and right from one hand to another hand: "I already have Mjolnir, my soul weapon. So I don't need any other weapon."

"Heh!" Nero scoffed and shook his head.

"What about you?" Thor turned to Nero and asked with a curious look on his face, "Are you going to try to take it out?"

Nero pondered for a while and answered, "I already have many stronger weapons than this, but adding one more won't hurt, I guess."

Nero jumped down the bridge but didn't land or set his foot on it.

Even though Thor was now Nero's slave and followed him to his palace, he didn't trust him entirely.

As the shadow domain was connected to the shadow realm, Nero didn't want to make contact with anything in between.

Nero's master always warned him to be wary of the shadow and the void as they could even devour the gods.

'It's not like the shadow realm can do anything to me, but I want to stay away from any unnecessary trouble for now. I am already getting late, and Sophi is definitely going to be pissed at me. I can already feel chills.'

Nero was surely feeling chills, but it was for another reason. As the distance between Nero and the dagger decreased, he noticed the domain was covered in black mist, and he could feel the awful aura around the dagger.

Due to his sharp sense of smell and hearing, he could hear muffled whispers, and the pungent scent made him feel nauseous.

Nero cut his sense of smell and moved forward to the dagger.

'Zeus' the sharp voice sounded to Nero.

Nero's eyes widened as he stopped moving and frowned his face.

'Son of Zagan.'

The 'S' of the voice was so sharp as though the voice belonged to a female serpent.

'Come forward.'

The voice tried to hypnotize Nero, but Nero smirked and said, "You dare to charm me, imbecile!'

'Kikikiki!'

"Who are you?" Nero asked in his demonic voice.

'Closer~'

"Why is the bracelet reacting to the dagger?" Nero asked impatiently.

'How about touch me and find out for yourself?'

Nero stood there and stared at the dagger with a fierce glare in his eyes.

'What's wrong? Are you scared?'

"What can you even do to me?" Nero sneered and moved his hand to touch the dagger.

HIs bracelet started vibrating, and it was so powerful that it even made Nero's hand tremble due to shaking.

Nero grabbed his left hand with his right hand to stop it from shaking and eventually touched the dagger.

The moment Nero touched the dagger, the bracelet fell off his hand, and the dagger was eaten by his body. Two longhorns emerged from  Nero's forehead, and the entire universe was obliterated.

—

"Are you going to try to take it out?"

Nero glanced to his left and saw Thor looking at him.

"...!"

Nero immediately looked at his left hand, and the bracelet was still there. Then, he looked at the dagger to find it plunged into the skull.

'What just happened? Did I have a vision of what would happen if I took out that dagger?'

Nero shrugged his thoughts and once again jumped down to take out the dagger.

He smelled the same pungent smell, followed by the same sharp voice.

'Kikikiki!'

"What did you do?" Nero asked with a howl.

'How about touch me and find out for yourself?'

Annoyed, Nero once again grabbed the dagger, and the exact same thing happened again.

"Are you going to try to take it out?" Thor asked.

SIGH!

Nero let out a weary sigh and shook his head, saying, "No."

'Before I could realize, I was trapped in the loop. And here I was talking big about being strong.' Nero clenched his fists and glared at the dagger with murderous intent.

It was easy to break out of the loop, and that was not to trigger the loop. 

If no one touched it, nothing would happen, and even if someone touched it, nothing would happen to the rest of the world as it will only affect the person who triggered the loop.
