Chapter 181: Aftermath
So simple?
Lod looked at Odin with a slight difference. It seemed that he still found it hard to believe that the aether particles he dreamed of had been so easily obtained.
Those were infinity stones!
Each infinity stones represented supreme power, a divine artifact that could cause bloodshed in the entire universe!
Could this old fellow be plotting something again?
After seeing Odin's scheming, Lod became even more vigilant towards this old fellow, afraid that he would be tricked by Odin if he wasn't careful.
Odin's mind was extremely shrewd. He saw through Lod's thoughts with a single glance and said indifferently, Although the infinity stone is a divine artifact, it is accompanied by disaster and destruction. In the hands of Asgard, it is just a hot potato. Rather than hiding it, it is better to make friends. Two birds with one stone.
These words were not a lie.
Asgard was still at his prime. Bohr, Odin, and Hela, the three great Big Boss experts, were in charge. They had the three legions of Asgard, dead soul, and Valkyrie under their command. Wherever the sword pointed, all the races of the nine worlds would retreat. They were much more powerful than Thanos' legion!
But even so, at that time, Asgard did not choose to collect infinity stones. Now that Asgard was on the verge of decline, how could he still occupy two gems?
"So that's how it is!"
Lod cupped his hands and bowed. He smiled and said, "Then I will accept this kindness and thank the Divine King in advance."
"There is no need to thank me."
Odin waved his hand and said, "This is the reward you won. It would be better to say that I borrowed your hand and sent out a trouble."
"The Divine King is joking ---"
Lod chuckled. He was afraid that Odin would change his mind when the night was long, so he said bluntly, "May I ask the Divine King, when can you give me aether particles?"
"My father, Bohr, sealed the aether particles in hollow's spatial crack."
Odin's voice carried a hint of exhaustion. "Currently, my main body is still asleep, so I can only ask you to stay in Asgard for a few days. I will hand it over to you after I completely recover, is that okay?"
Only then did Lod notice that Odin's body had become somewhat illusory.
It was clear that this time, Odin was still an incarnation.
His main body was still sleeping in the temple.
Lod nodded. "It doesn't matter. The Divine King's body is more important. There is no need to rush the aether particles."
The concentration of Asgard Reishi was so high that it could also be pulled into Soul Society, so why would he be happy?
"Allow me to deal with a private matter first."
After saying that, Odin took a step forward and came to Loki.
The father and son looked at each other.
One side's eyes were mixed with deep guilt, while the other side's eyes revealed a hint of ridicule.
Odin's old face was full of guilt. His lips trembled slightly, and he said hesitantly, "You... have been a smart child since you were a child. So you should understand what you have to face, right?"
"I know."
The mockery in Loki's eyes became even more intense. He said, "usurping the throne and murdering his father, killing his brother and slaughtering his clan, stripping him of his position as a Prince, removing his identity as an Asgardian and permanently banishing him, right?"
Odin had a complicated expression and sighed, "Loki... I've let you down."
"You didn't let me down."
Loki took a deep breath and regained his calm. He said coldly, "You are the God King of Asgard, and Thor is the Prince of Astar. I am just an adopted abandoned child. It is already your blessing that I am alive. You have not let me down."
The relationship between father and son was just his wishful thinking.
Now, he needed to repay the kindness that Odin had shown him when he adopted him!
And the conditions to repay him...
It was him, a treacherous person, who shouldered all the blame and protected Asgard in another way, maintaining the fragile balance of the nine worlds!
This was the Divine King!
Loki finally understood what kind of price he had to pay if he wanted to sit on that golden throne!
How ironic.
The position of the God King that he had dreamed of in the past, now he would rather give it up!
...
Seven days later.
In the waiting of the many races in the nine worlds, Asgard judged Loki!
Loki seized the opportunity when the God King was asleep to usurpthe throne, attempting to kill his father and brother, and cruelly killing the king of the Frost Giants, Laufey, starting a war in the nine worlds, destroying the hard-to-come-by peace.
In the name of the God King of the nine worlds, Odin deprived Loki of the position of the second Prince of Asgard, removed the identity of an Asgard citizen, and banished him forever!
Facing Odin's nearly cold judgment, Loki neither opened his mouth to argue nor did he overreact. He remained expressionless all the time, staring at the God King who was high above.
The only thing that made Loki's expression change was the gentle Empress Frigga.
After begging for mercy a few more times, Frigga could only tearfully send Loki off, watching him ride a spaceship into the starry sky and gradually get away from Asgard.
"See you next time, reindeer."
In a room in the temple, Lod looked at Loki who was getting further and further away, and a mysterious smile suddenly appeared on his face.
If nothing unexpected happened, they would meet again on Earth soon.
This incident allowed him to fully experience how terrifying the binding force of the Marvel World was.
In the plot of Thunder God, Loki should have ended up falling into the Milky Way and disappearing, but after a series of magic changes, he had become an exiled universe.
Although there were some differences in the process, the final outcome was the same!
This feeling was as if there was some kind of power controlling the progress of the 'storyline', allowing the world line that deviated from its original route to return to the right track.
Lod was thinking...
If he forcefully destroyed this world line, what would happen then?
This feeling of being forcefully controlled made him feel very uncomfortable.
Because if there is really a power that can control and make the world line.
Does that mean that he himself is also being affected by a certain power?
It can't be said...
Lod vaguely sensed that if he said something, what would be waiting for him would be...
"It's getting more and more interesting..."
Lod rubbed his sore temples and sighed in his heart. "The water in this world is a little deep..."
...
Just as Lod was thinking, God King Odin came to his room.
"I'm here to fulfill my promise."
Odin raised his hand and made a grabbing motion in the air. Threads of red fluid suddenly gathered at his fingertips and solidified into a dark red gem.
This was... aether particles!
Lod's breathing slowed slightly, and his eyes were burning.
"The aether particles are yours."
There was no trace of reluctance in Odin's eyes. He handed the dark red gem to Lod and said lightly, "I hope you won't be swallowed by the darkness. Otherwise, I will take it back with my own hands!"
"Thank you, God King ---"
Lod cupped his hands and bowed. Then, he took the dark red gem from Odin's hand. Without even looking at it, he threw it into Soul Society.
