Seeing Shiller also there, Thor seemed a bit surprised. Suddenly, as if realizing something, he swallowed back what he was about to say. He glanced at Eddie's expression, already knowing what was going on.
After all, he was warned by Loki before he came, the general idea being, not to look for Shiller even if the sky fell.
However, he didn't actively seek this encounter, it was merely coincidental. Thor thought, with Eddie around, nothing major should happen.
Thor walked over to the dining table, pulled out a chair and sat down. He complained before Eddie could ask, "I had to escape to Earth; Frigga is driving me crazy. She only asks me two things daily; when am I getting married, and when am I going to have a child?"
Eddie chuckled, "Who would have thought, the great King of Asgard, would be pressed into marriage…"
Thor shook his head, "I am actually to blame. Normally, the Divine King should have a Queen of Gods at the time of coronation. But back then, my relationship with Sif was a bit strained, Loki was causing trouble on the side, and the Father of All Gods and the Queen of Gods had differences over candidate selection."
Eddie widened his eyes, looked him up and down, and said, "You're not really going to marry your own sister, right? And she used to be your brother!"
Thor waved his hand, "Asgard is not like your human race, we don't have any taboo against marrying relatives. The God Clan won't have any aftereffects from intermarriage. My dad and mom also had a blood relationship."
"However, I indeed don't have any feelings for Loki that go beyond brotherhood, but as you know, marriages in the Royal Family are usually not decided by ourselves." Thor sighed. Eddie sat down in the chair opposite him. Unexpectedly, Shiller also came over and sat next to him.
Eddie picked up the water jug on the table, poured a glass of water for Thor, and then said, "You've matured a lot. If this was the time we first met, you would have shouted loudly that love should be free..."
"Love should certainly be free, but I also have responsibilities." Thor took a sip of water, "Every member of the Royal Family is like this. We enjoy the supply and worship of the citizens of Asgard, naturally we have to shoulder greater responsibilities than them, and also make sacrifices, including marriage."
"However, even though I think this way, I won't force others to think the same. So, when Loki didn't clearly state his stance, I took it as a no. Later, the Father of All Gods also stopped bothering us."
Thor propped one hand on the table, the magnificently built northern European even drinking water with the imposing manner of a drinker. He wiped his mouth, then said, "My relationship with Sif is sort of magical…"
"When I just returned to Asgard, I killed quite a few members of the malicious Berserker Faction. Sif and I had a falling out, and she went out on her own journey. We were apart for a while."
In Thor's eyes, there was a hint of reminiscence. He said, "Since we've known each other since childhood, we have never been apart for this long. When she came back, we both sensed something different…"
"Also, Frigga has been trying to bring us together, so it naturally happened. The only thing is, I ascended to the throne first and our wedding didn't happen at the same time. Now, we just can't find an appropriate opportunity to hold it."
"You're already engaged, why are you afraid of being rushed into marriage?" Eddie asked curiously, "It's just a matter of whether or not to hold a banquet. Your mom won't be that impatient, right?"
"But I can't stand her nagging every day!" Thor, somewhat helpless, covered his forehead and said with a frown, "She keeps comparing me to Loki, always saying that he was more sensible than me since childhood, had a good relationship with the goddesses, saying that I should have learned from him and been more considerate and not squabble with Sif. If I had, the coronation and wedding could have been held together, and everything would have worked out."
"She says it's unfair for Sif, the Queen of Gods should be a wife, at the most glorious and grand ceremony, to be jointly crowned with her husband. But Sif no longer has that opportunity…"
Thor sighed, "Frigga's point is not wrong, I can't argue against it. But at the same time, I can't stand her nagging, so I had to run out to take a break."
Thor tapped his fingers on the table and then said,
"Another reason is, Loki is the God of Mischief, he has recently caused a lot of trouble. Many interstellar empires have contacted me, I don't want to individually scold each of them. So I just told them I am not here; if they dare, let them come to Asgard to apprehend him. I hope they come!"
Thor had an expression filled with murderous intent. Clearly, the words used to describe Loki in those phone calls upset him.
Eddie burst into laughter, "You father and son are a deceitful group. the son goes fishing, and the father waits at home to kill them, a dragon that eats and buries…"
Unexpectedly, as soon as Eddie finished, Thor looked at him surprised, "You have changed a lot too. In the past, you were always speaking in a literary manner, there were some words I couldn't even understand. But now it is much better…"
Eddie froze for a while, then gave a bitter smile, saying, "Living here, you can only speak this way. If you still speak like you do at the newspaper with colleagues, you'll get beaten."
After chatting for a while, Shiller, sitting next to them, took out some candy wrappers and started to play. Thor didn't understand what he was doing, so he leaned over to watch him fold paper toys, and said with interest,
