The more Odin thought about it, the more alarmed he felt. The multiverse ran deeper than he had ever imagined, with some versions of Odin possessing power far beyond his own. As the king of the Nine Realms, this realization weighed heavily on him.
It had been a long time since he had felt this kind of pressure.
"With this armor and my Odinforce, I'll be able to face the Celestials again!"
Clenching his fists, a new fire of ambition burned within Odin. The thought of avenging his past defeat by the Celestials, which he had deemed impossible, now seemed within reach.
"Odin, the Dwarf King Eitri is here," a guard announced, interrupting his thoughts.
"Good."
Odin donned the Odin Armor and left to meet Eitri. The dwarves of Nidavellir were the finest blacksmiths in the Nine Realms, creators of many magical weapons, including Odin's spear, Gungnir.
Odin summoned Eitri to study the Odin Armor, hoping to replicate it.
"Odin, where did you get this armor? The material is unlike anything I've seen, not even our finest can match it!" Eitri exclaimed in disbelief. Despite his expertise, the armor's complexity and material were beyond him.
"Can it be replicated?" Odin inquired.
Eitri shook his head and sighed. "The material is unattainable, and any substitutes would greatly diminish its effectiveness. Moreover, the armor's power seems to stem from an incredible internal energy. Without that energy, it would just be another strong armor."
Odin wasn't surprised; he had expected as much. He recalled the Celestials' armor, which held immense energy. The thought of acquiring such armor crossed his mind, but he dismissed it, realizing it would lead to severe consequences.
"Lord Odin," another guard approached, "Thor has awakened."
"Good," Odin relaxed slightly, though he remained concerned about Thor's recklessness that nearly caused a catastrophe.
"However, he is very agitated," the guard added with a troubled expression.
"What do you mean?" Odin's brows furrowed.
"Thor insists on entering the Red Sea world to exact revenge."
"That fool! He still doesn't understand!" Odin's eyes widened in anger. Thor's stubbornness and lack of reflection were infuriating.
"Take me to him!" Odin ordered, storming out to find Thor.
Thor had escaped the infirmary, determined to confront Odin. Guards and Loki pursued him, trying to intervene.
"Rebellious son! What are you doing?" Odin descended, voice thunderous.
"Father, let me enter that world!" Thor immediately demanded.
"What are you planning?" Odin's concern grew.
"I must destroy those monsters! As the God of Thunder, I cannot accept such defeat!" Thor declared.
"Fool! Have you learned nothing?" Odin's anger flared. Thor's impulsiveness was unacceptable.
Thor was momentarily stunned, silenced by his father's fury.
"Your recklessness nearly brought disaster! You endangered your friends!" Odin chastised. "And you defied my orders by attacking Jotunheim! I haven't even addressed that!"
Thor, however, saw no fault in his actions. "I went to Jotunheim to make the Frost Giants pay for their invasion! My only mistake was underestimating the enemy. With enough warriors, I would have conquered them!"
"You are not the king!" Odin retorted, voice rising. "Asgard needs no more conquests, especially not from an unfit prince!"
Thor's pride was deeply wounded. He considered himself Asgard's greatest warrior next to Odin, revered by many.
"Are you so fearful of retaliation that you do nothing?" Thor shouted back, his courage surprising even him.
Loki and the guards were stunned into silence, their faces pale with shock. The atmosphere grew tense, the calm before the storm.
Even Thor began to realize he might have gone too far, but his pride kept him silent, staring defiantly at Odin.
A hum filled the air as the Odin Armor assembled itself above them, its pieces attaching to Odin.
In the Odin Armor, wielding Gungnir in one hand and a sword in the other, Odin exuded an overwhelming presence, making it hard for anyone to breathe.
"It seems I've been too lenient. Thor, you will be banished to Midgard to reflect on your actions!"
