Chereads / The Epic of Leviathan / Chapter 242 - Chapter 247

Chapter 242 - Chapter 247

[Royal Palace, Asgard]

Odin sat on his throne, his face was marred with shame… to say that he was angry would be an understatement. He was fuming in rage but knew there was nothing he could do, he has ruled over Asgard for thousands of years and he knew very well that Cosmic Entities weren't something he should pick a fight with.

A part of his mind was even glad that the Cosmic Entity allowed his son and the others to return with their lives. Yes, all of them were injured badly and their weapons were also destroyed but these things were something that could be solved with time. Thankfully, Mjolnir was still intact. He knew he should be glad about how everything turned out but as a King, he wasn't able to…

Odin had several terms in his mind which he wanted to use to come as a friendly in front of those Cosmic Entities but his stupid son had ruined all of his plans. Even though Odin was feeling really ashamed with how the Cosmic Entity insulted them… a part of him was glad that the Cosmic Entity did that.

This might show his stupid son the vast difference between the strength of an Asgardian and a Cosmic Entity. For many years he has been trying to get his son to stop being dependent on his hammer but his son didn't bother with that. Now, that Thor was insulted in such a manner he might learn something from it. Though Odin didn't hold much hope there…

"Your Majesty, the young prince has awoken" Odin was brought out of his thoughts by a servant. Odin strode out of his throne room to meet his youngest son… or his only son.

Odin arrived in front of his son's room and after a small pause, he strode into the room while releasing his majestic aura. Odin found his wife was sitting beside his son's bed with a look of worry on her face.

"Father…" Thor began to speak but Odin started to glare dangerously at his son.

"Silence!" Odin screamed in rage, everyone inside the room flinched and took a step back in fear. Odin shot a glance towards the servants in the room. The servants immediately knew what that meant and all of them rushed out of the room.

"Do you know what you have done you, foolish son?" Odin growled out in anger.

"Father, I…" Thor began to speak but he was silenced once again by his father.

"No!! You know nothing! You didn't remember what I have told you about the power of Cosmic Entities nor did you listen to me. See how that turned out for you and your friends!" Odin snarled in fury.

"Please, husband… our son is injured" Frigga spoke up in a pleading tone.

"He only has himself to blame for that" Odin dismissed his wife's pleading. "I was planning to greet them in a friendly manner and you ruined that with your bullheadedness and don't even start with the insults… do you know that you shamed the whole Asgard with your act??" Odin said while glaring at his son.

Nobody spoke for a few minutes, Thor was clutching his sheets tightly while looking down in shame and Odin was still glaring at his son with fury clear in his eyes. Frigga was looking in between her son and husband in worry.

After some time, Thor finally looked up towards his father with determination in his eyes. "…Father, I promise to return Asgard's honor…" but Thor was once again cut off by his father.

"Now, don't you see your foolishness? Do you think that you will be able to defeat Cosmic Entities? They destroy worlds on just a whim!! You were rather lucky that the Cosmic Entity found you too pathetic to be killed… you cant even use your own power without your hammer and you decided to challenge a Cosmic Entity…" Odin spat out in anger, Thor shrunk back in shame but Odin didn't care about that.

"As long as the Cosmic Entities are on Midgard, it's out of our jurisdiction. I don't want another altercation between us" after saying that Odin strode out of the room…

[POV Reo]

"So, Asgard's real. I can't believe this" Jean muttered under her breath.

"Yes, and we almost went to war with them" Natasha murmured from the side.

"Stop fussing about small things. Reo looked so hot when he was beating them up" Nemuri said with stars in her eyes.

"Yep, I agree with Nemuri here… even if the fight was really short, it was rather cool" Rumi said returned to her food.

"But from what I have seen they aren't actual Gods, right?" Momo asked while taking a short break from glomping down her food.

"They were fools… I don't like them. Instead of greeting us on friendly terms, they decided to attack us… that shows how they really are, they think we are beneath them, non?" Fleur said in a cold tone

"But don't you think what you said to them was slightly cruel?" Ororo asked me in a low tone. I looked at her and found that she didn't mind what I said but she thought it was rather cruel but before I could answer Luna decided to speak up.

"No, it was completely fine. Do you think that either Odin or Frigga are nice people… well, Frigga hides it very well with her caring personality but do you think that, if Reo was getting beaten by her son she would have tried to stop him? She would have been proud… what do you think Odin would have done?" Luna retorted back with a dreamy look on her face.

"How do think they are known as Gods, well, it is just like as you think… they came to Earth and posed as Gods so that people from earth would worship them" Luna said in a serious tone and went back to her food. Nobody said anything for a few seconds after that. After all, if Luna says that a person is bad then in truth he or she is really bad.

I completely agree with Luna, neither Odin and Frigga were exactly nice people. Well, Frigga is nice but what she did to her own daughter Hela wasn't something nice… no, mother would have agreed to that. Nurture, that was the problem there, when they needed it, they nurtured Hela for battle and war but as soon as they thought of her as a liability they decided to lock her away after stabbing her in the back. Hela was nurtured to fight and kill… something like that can't be changed in a day.

Then there is Odin, who sacrificed all of his Valkyries to imprison Hela when he changed his ways she was unable to do so. Then how, Odin treated Jane like an inferior being when she was on Asgard. Odin refused to believe what he saw in front of his eyes and like Cornelius Fudge back in the HP World decided to stick his head in the sand until Asgard was attacked…

"Let's stop talking about these depressing topics now" I said and everyone simply nodded and continued with their food. Even though my small break was interrupted by the fools from Asgard, I was glad that I got to shake my joints a bit.

After dinner, all of us headed towards our own room. Jean and Ororo were still sharing one room and Natasha had her own room. The rest of us lived in one room… the night was still young and we decided to spend the night, exploring each other. Nemuri was over the moon because she got the chance of getting shagged… twice.

A few days passed without any more excitement… everything on Elysium was completely normal, I took all of my girls on dates individually. Jean got her second date and this time we shared a kiss before parting our ways. Natasha has also grown quite close to me and Ororo did the same.

The development of Elysium was going on pretty nicely, all the meta-humans who had families were given their own flats while the single meta-humans could live in the dorms. Small shops have also started to open around the residential district. The house-elves were working tirelessly which they loved very much. Eric was so happy that he almost looked like a kid nowadays. He was also happy that he was the leader of the island even though I was seen as the true Protector.

I spent all the days going on dates with the girls and training with my Power of Destruction throughout the rest of the day. I have made a lot of progress with my power but I still had a long way to go before I completely mastered my powers. I followed the same routine until one day Momo texted me that she had finished all the tests and she was ready to move on to the next step. Thankfully, I wasn't on a date at that time or I would have been late to visit Momo, after all, a gentleman never leaves a woman on a date…

"So, what's up?" I arrived in Momo's lab and asked her. Both Momo and Natasha seemed to be waiting for me.

"It is proved that the theory is working and we would be able to destroy his mind methodically" Momo said and pointed towards a Pensieve, but it wasn't a normal Pensieve, it had a few more runes than the normal ones…
