208, Roy is king, Odin's plan
Asgard.
Golden Palace.
The King's Study.
Odin, the father of the gods, is dealing with the affairs of the day.
As the king of a country, Odin has a lot of government affairs to deal with every day.
What's more, unlike Roy, Odin is a very responsible leader.
As long as it is a government affairs that he can handle, he will handle it himself, rather than leaving it to others to do.
Odin had just finished reviewing the recruitment plan submitted by the captain of the royal guard when a black raven flew in through the study window and landed on his desk.
This crow is not an ordinary crow, but a raven Fojin raised by Odin himself.
In order to better understand what is happening in the Nine Realms, Odin trained two crows to be his spies and eyes and ears.
Fokine is one of them.
As for the other one, it's called Wuni.
On the surface, Fokine and Fog Ni are no different from other crows.
But in fact, the seemingly ordinary Fujin and Wuni have the ability to leap over the entire Nine Realms in one day.
Otherwise, they would not have been able to understand what was happening in the Nine Realms for Odin.
Every morning, just after dawn, Fujin and Suni would leave Asgard and head to the other realms of the Nine Realms.
In the evening, they would return to Asgard and report to Odin what they had seen and heard today.
After seeing that Fokine was uncharacteristically and returned to Asgard early, a puzzled expression appeared on Odin's face.
Without him asking, Fukin, who was standing on the desk, chirped.
To the others, Fokine was screaming right now.
But after hearing Fokin's cry, Odin's expression began to become solemn.
How is this possible?
After listening to Fokine's report, Odin first let Fokine leave the study.
Then, the royal guard outside the study was called in.
"Let Thor and Loki come to the study."
Odin said to the royal guard, who had just finished saluting.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
The royal guard replied respectfully.
Subsequently, he left the study.
After giving orders to the royal guards, Odin leaned back in his golden chair with a frown.
What Raven Fujin had just told him was nothing else, it was Roy who had defeated the Frost Giant King Laufey and made the Frost Giant King bow down.
Not only that, but according to Fokine, Roy not only made Laufey submit, but also had plans to become Lord of Jotunheim.
Compared to Asgard, Jotunheim is no different from a backcountry.
But in any case, Jotunheim is one of the Nine Realms.
Roy wants to become lord of Jotunheim, and from another point of view, he is going to be king of Jotunheim.
An earthling who has conquered Jotunheim, the kingdom of the Frost Giants, and intends to reign in Jotunheim.
Rao is Odin, who has lived for hundreds of thousands of years, and it is the first time he has encountered such a thing.
If Laufey was going to invade Earth and try to turn it into the territory of the Frost Giants, Odin wouldn't be too surprised.
After all, Laufey had already done this more than a thousand years ago.
Although Laufey failed in the end, it was enough to prove that Laufey had ambitions to conquer other kingdoms.
Now, however, things are reversed.
Odin hadn't really met Roy, but he was no stranger to Roy.
Half a year ago, the moment the fish fruit evolved into the god fruit, Roy caught Odin's attention.
Although Odin did not travel to Earth in person, Roy was on his list of things to watch from that day on.
First of all, he showed the potential to be promoted to the level of Heavenly Father.
Then he killed the totem god Black Panther God Bastet, who was born on the earth.
Finally, more than ten days ago, he killed the apocalypse again.
Odin had thought that after taking out Apocalypse and the monster Amit, who incarnated as Anubis, Roy would keep a low profile for a while.
Unexpectedly, less than half a month later, Roy ran to Jotunheim, defeated the Frost Giant King Laufey, and made Laufey bow down.
For Laufey, Odin can be said to be no stranger at all.
The war more than 1,000 years ago was the last time he fought Laufey.
But before that, he and Laufey had already played each other several times.
What the hell is he going to do?
While waiting for Thor and Loki to come over, Odin pondered Roy's true purpose.
He didn't think that Roy had suddenly become interested in becoming king, so he ran to Jotunheim to defeat Laufey.
If Roy really had the intention of becoming king, he should have done so on Earth first, instead of running to Jotunheim, which was not suitable for human habitation at all.
Although Odin didn't know what Roy was going to do, he was sure of one thing, that is, Roy's sudden desire to become king in Jotunheim would cause the plan he had been preparing for thousands of years to fail aborted.
Odin would bring Loki, who was Laufey's son, back to Asgard and raise him as if he were his own son, not to take Loki hostage.
To put it mildly, with Laufey's strength, it wasn't enough for him to deliberately leave Loki as a hostage.
None of Laufey, with his Winter Box, could stand up to him or Asgard's army.
Without the Winter Box, Laufey, of course, is even more impossible.
There is only one reason why Odin brought Loki back to Asgard to raise him as his own son, and that is that he intends to completely resolve the hostile relationship between Asgardians and the Frost Giants through Loki.
According to his plan, after Laufey's death, he will tell Loki about his true origins.
He would then return Loki to Jotunheim as the new Frost Giant King.
Loki becomes the new Frost Giant King, and Thor succeeds Asgard to the throne.
In this way, under the influence of Loki and Thor, the feud between the Frost Giants and the Asgardians has the possibility of being truly resolved.
Odin's idea was good.
From a planning point of view, there is nothing wrong with his plan.
It's just that he wouldn't have thought that Loki wanted only one throne, and that was the throne of Asgard.
Aside from the throne of Asgard, Loki is not interested in the throne of any other realm.
At least that's the case for now.
Thor and Loki didn't keep Odin waiting too long.
Soon, Saul and Loki are in the study.
"Father, are you looking for us?"
After arriving at the study, Thor was the first to speak.
"There's something going on over there in Jotunheim."
"An earthling named Roy has defeated Laufey and intends to officially take over Jotunheim and become lord of Jotunheim."
Odin said slowly.
What?
After hearing Odin's words, both Thor and Loki had expressions of disbelief.
Although they don't know Roy, they have a hard time believing that Roy, who is an Earthling, can defeat Laufey.
What's more, Roy, who is an earthling, actually intends to become the lord of Jotunheim.
It's the land of the Frost Giants!
With the exception of the Frost Giants, not many races would enjoy the harsh environment of Jotunheim.
Even the mountain giants who live in Jotunheim like the Frost Giants don't really like Jotunheim very much.
Because Jotunheim was still a little too cold for the mountain giants.
"Who is this Roy?"
Loki asked Odin as he spoke.
"Mutants."
"To be precise, he should be the strongest mutant on the planet right now."
Odin replied.
Mutants?
Although Thor and Loki rarely go to Earth, they are no strangers to mutants.
It's not just mutants, they're no strangers to Inhumans either.
"Father, did you want us two to go to Jotunheim to meet Roy?"
Loki continued.
"It's not you two, it's you."
"I'm going to let you go to Jotunheim and meet Roy."
"As for Thor, I hope you can take my place and go to Earth to visit the Supreme Mage Ancient One."
Odin looked at Loki and Thor and said slowly.
After hearing Odin's words, Thor and Loki looked at each other for a few seconds.
They didn't know why Odin did it, but one thing they knew for sure was that Odin cared about Roy.
"I'm fine, I haven't been to Earth for a long time."
Thor was the first to reply.
"I'm fine, I'll be ready to go."
Loki replied.
"Good!"
"Since you all have no opinion, then you can go now."
Odin said quickly.
"Yes, Father!"
Thor and Loki replied at the same time.
Subsequently, the two left the study together.
After leaving the study, Thor immediately reached out and put his hand on Loki's shoulder, and said to Loki:
"I'll go to Jotunheim to see Roy, and you go to Earth to see the Supreme Mage Ancient One."
What?
Loki shook off Thor's right hand and said with a frown:
"That's not how my father arranged it."
"If my father knew that the two of us had swapped tasks, my father would be displeased."
As soon as Loki finished speaking, Thor said with a nonchalant expression:
"It's going to be fine."
"Besides, you are also a mage, so it is obviously more appropriate for you to visit the Supreme Mage Ancient One."
"So it was decided, I went to Jotunheim, and you went to Earth."
"If your father blames you, you will say that I forced you."
"Don't worry, it'll be fine!"
Looking at Thor, who was inexplicably confident and somewhat excited, Loki sighed helplessly.
"This is the only time, not the next one."
Loki said to Thor.
"I knew you wouldn't say no."
Thor said with a smile.
……
Jotunheim.
At this time, Roy didn't know that he had once again attracted Odin's attention, and he didn't know that Thor was going to come over to visit him later.
Now, he was sitting on the throne, asking Laufey about the Frost Giants and Jotunheim.
Although he was inexplicably ousted from the throne, Laufey quickly adapted to the fact that he had surrendered to Roy, and answered every question Roy asked in detail.
There are less than half a million Frost Giants in all of Jotunheim?
If this data hadn't been uttered by Laufey himself, Roy wouldn't have believed it.
Although he did not know the exact size of Jotunheim, he did know that Jotunheim was not much smaller than the Earth.
A planet not much smaller than the Earth actually lives less than half a million frost giants.
What is called vast land and sparsely populated, this is it!
However, considering the natural conditions of Jotunheim and the civilization level of the Frost Giants, it is already very good to have more than 400,000 Frost Giants living in Jotunheim now.
After all, the Frost Giants are undoubtedly a higher race.
And the higher races have one characteristic, that is, the fertility rate is not much higher.
The more powerful the race, the more so.
Just as Roy was about to ask Laufeyjodonheim if there were any rare metals, a rainbow pillar of light fell from the sky and landed straight down to the square of the royal city.
Rainbow Bridge!
As the old enemies of the Asgardians, Laufey and the other Frost Giants recognized it as Asgard's Rainbow Bridge at a glance.
Roy was seeing the Rainbow Bridge for the first time, though.
But like Laufey, he recognized the Rainbow Bridge at the first time.
PS: The current average is 2000, and I plan to continue to rush up, so from today onwards, the four more 2000 words will become the third more 3000 words.
The number of chapters is less, but the number of words is more, so you shouldn't mind.
