Capítulo 10: Shameless Groot
Editor: Atlas Studios
"Discuss?" Groot immediately put on a blaming look.
"There's no need to discuss. You're treating me like an outsider. If there's anything you need, just say it. I, Groot, will do anything for you."
Now, Groot was serious, as if he wasn't the reckless kid just now.
"Even if I have to climb a mountain of blades or plunge into a sea of flames, I, Little treant, will definitely follow Lord Guardian God with my life."
"No complaints."
Outsider?
You tried robbing me right from the start. When you waved your hundred-meter long magic sword at me, you really didn't seem to care.
He had seen thick bark before, but he had never seen such thick bark.
Just a second ago, he was still cursing and playing dirty, but the next second, he was full of solicitousness and spouting praises.
Who would have thought that the future holy flame messenger would be like this?
Looking at the holy flame messenger in front of him, Heimdall felt particularly uncertain and even showed a trace of worry.
This Groot was also a weirdo. He had even offended the extremely good-tempered Guardian God of the God Realm, making him feel helpless.
This was the holy flame messenger designated by the God Realm?
Sigh… Perhaps the younger generation will surpass us in time.
With this thought in mind, Heimdall slowly said,
"A few years later, a holy flame messenger will come from the Ross Continent. He will pass by this place and head to the Hell Pagoda of the Nether Realm to transmit the holy flame."
"At that time, you will escort this person to the Nether Realm's Hell Pagoda."
"During this period, you might encounter embodiments of evil forces from the Nether Realm."
"These evil forces have now invaded various planets. Many races have begun to fight among themselves because of the existence of these evil forces."
"Furthermore, there are evil powers that have already begun to invade the bodies of these races, causing them to become even more vicious and violent."
"It'll be a dangerous journey, but are you willing to accept this mission?"
Groot nodded without hesitation after hearing that.
Although he was playful and a little reckless, he was someone who was scrupulous in separating public from private interests. He also had the spirit to care about the world.
Now was not the time to do whatever he wanted. After all, he was facing the guardian god Heimdall.
How could the races that were led by the God Realm dare to not listen to this person's words? The arrival of the Guardian God was equivalent to the arrival of the Master God, Zeus.
Even if it wasn't an order from the Lord God, they had to obey the orders of the Guardian God.
The God Realm protected all life and it was such an honor to be able to contribute their strength to protect all living beings.
However… the only person who could make him work hard was Flanders.
"Of course. I, Groot, will not slack off in the slightest when it comes to the mission given to me by Lord Guardian God. I will definitely complete it on time and not let you down."
"I guarantee that the messenger will be safe and successfully escorted to the Nether Realm." Groot spoke against his will.
Although Groot agreed readily, he was already cursing in his heart.
To hell with your bullshit guardian god. How dare you ask me to do manual labor.
If it weren't for the fact that Teacher wasn't here and wouldn't let us say the name of the library, I'd have used Ross to destroy Lord's prestige.
What do you mean by willing? If I'm unwilling, I'm afraid my lord will probably have to take action.
This was one of the most powerful beings in the God Realm! The little treant, Groot, could not afford to offend such a person.
Heimdall was a little bored after hearing Groot's continuous promises. Looking at his unreliable appearance, he would definitely not accept this mission willingly if he was not given some benefits.
But ultimately, Groot agreed, and the golden protective barrier around Heimdall was removed.
"There's something else you need to remember," Heimdall said slowly.
"At that time, when the Holy Flame Transmission begins, you need to acknowledge someone as your teacher. Not only do you need to successfully escort him to the Nether Realm, you also need to…"
"What?" Groot interrupted before Heimdall could finish.
"That won't do. I won't agree to this condition."
Groot's eyes widened in shock. "You want me to become someone else's student? How is that possible? I don't want to!"
"Even if I, the little Treant, were to die here and be beaten to death, I would never be another person's student."
When Heimdall heard Groot's words, his anger surged in an instant. He was already dissatisfied with Groot and had long been impatient with him. Now, he actually dared to disobey his orders and spoke to him so disrespectfully.
"This was decided by the God Realm. Don't resist. This is not to be disobeyed. The gods have already discussed it." Heimdall said slowly as the golden holy light on his body gradually spread out.
"No, I vehemently refuse."
"This condition is absolutely impossible."
"How could the successor of the Treant Race acknowledge someone else as his teacher?"
"Even if I offend the Guardian God and the entire God Realm today, I will not agree."
Groot's eyes narrowed as he spoke slowly. Although his voice wasn't very loud, it was still resolute and decisive.
He knew that he was facing an insurmountable gap, but he was as determined as ever.
With that, Heimdall finally responded.
"Is that so?" Heimdall said, still calm.
However, he did not stop what he was doing. He was making some hand gestures and chanting magic incantations. Terrifying magic power spread outwards.
Endless golden holy light circulated, and vast golden clouds bloomed in the sky. The heavy magic pressure flowed between the heaven and earth, as if a surging seawater had gradually covered Groot's chest, neck, ears, and nose.
The horrifying pressure caused billions of living beings to tremble. Within a radius of several hundred miles, no living beings dared to appear here.
This suffocating magic power.
Boom!
An enormous golden-coloured lotus appeared between heaven and earth, standing behind Heimdall.
It was as if it wanted to destroy the entire world.
Rumble!!!
Groot's body suddenly shot backwards. With a furious roar, the earthen yellow false armor instantly covered his entire body, leaving behind only two eye sockets. In fact, every inch of his skin was covered, and his entire body was in a state of vigilance.
"It's just a title, what's so difficult about it?" Heimdall said coldly to Groot.
"I won't do it even if it's just a title."
"Don't you dare make me someone else's student," Groot growled, squinting.
Although the killing intent around the Guardian God was overwhelming and the terrifying pressure was suffocating, he was still determined to stand his ground.
Principal Flanders was his bottom line. No one was allowed to insult him, and no one was allowed to be his teacher.m
