Stupid Odin

When three men gather, a mastermind is automatically born.

If one of the three gods is a mastermind, the destructive power they bring will be earth-shattering.

Unfortunately, Odin can't gather all three gods in this life.

In the epic, Odin is the extremely evil God-King who coldly delivers ruthless blows, reaping all the benefits and avoiding all the disadvantages. Loki is the mastermind, and the simple-minded Thor is the battering ram charging ahead.

This life, thanks to the world's will rewarding merit, Thor is Thanes' good son and not close to his second uncle, Odin.

As long as Thanes separates Odin and Loki, then no matter how Odin makes small moves behind the scenes, his power will be quite limited.

Odin is also clear about this, so when he was crowned King of Jotunheim, he immediately took Loki with him. He needed such a strategist too much.

Now, Thanes ruthlessly shattered Odin's fantasy.

As Thanes raised his hand, a divine thought shot directly from his right middle finger, piercing into Odin's brow.

This is a prophetic scene created by Thanes using his [Prophecy] divine authority and his magic throne—Odin stared blankly at the apocalyptic giant wolf, whose back alone was as high as a mountain.

Fenrir!

It is a tyrant rampaging on the earth!

It can devour a forest with a single bite and drink up a lake!

It is not afraid of being enemies with any gods, and its temperament is extremely fierce. Opening its bloody mouth, its upper and lower jaws, which are easily thousands of meters long, seem to be able to hold up the sky and the earth.

Its roar can make the earth shake and destroy the courage of any mortal warrior.

In the [Twilight of the Gods] war that ended the rule of the Aesir gods, Fenrir's vertical pupils were full of arrogance and tyranny. Accompanied by its long and terrifying howl, it opened its bloody mouth and joined forces with another terrifying giant snake to drag Asgard down from the branches of the World Tree and plummet it onto Midgard, the human realm below.

That was an earth-shattering scene. The mountains, rivers, and lands of Asgard were all destroyed, and the giants and god servants living on it also died in this unprecedented terrifying fall and collision.

Odin and Fenrir met on the battlefield.

The irony is that Sleipnir, the eight-legged horse Odin rides, is theoretically Fenrir's eldest brother.

"Odin! I'm going to tear you apart!" The incomparably huge Fenrir declared.

Odin raised the Eternal Spear [Gungnir] and urged his divine horse to charge towards Fenrir.

Odin threw his spear, but strangely, the giant wolf spat out a flame sword from its mouth. The two artifacts collided in the air and flew out.

In the next instant, what Odin saw was the terrifying mouth of the magic wolf Fenrir that could crush mountains…

In a dizzying moment, Odin felt an extremely intense pain in his waist. It turned out that Fenrir's sharp fangs, whose hardness was comparable to steel, had bitten through his waist.

The wolf's head shook violently a few times, and Odin lost consciousness below his waist. Looking down, his lower body was gone.

The last thing Odin saw was the nightmarish scene of half of his body falling into the wolf's mouth.

… …

"Ah, ah, ah, ah—" Odin's roar and scream even startled the Valkyries guarding outside the Silver Palace.

If the God-King hadn't ordered that no one should intrude on this secret meeting between the God-King and his brother, they would have couldn't help but rush in to protect him.

After roaring for a while inside, Odin finally broke free from the dream and recovered.

Even though the sun was shining brightly outside the Silver Palace, warm and gentle, Odin was startled into a cold sweat.

He collapsed on the floor of the temple and instinctively touched his lower body.

His waist was still there, and his thighs and calves were still there!

Oh, oh!

This is just a prophetic dream?!

Odin was shocked and uncertain, panting heavily. He could clearly see that his hands were shaking violently.

With great difficulty, Odin finally calmed down, raised his head, and asked his good brother: "Brother, is this [Prophecy] or [Fate]?"

Thanes sat on the God-King's throne, the brilliant gold reflecting the sunlight shining in from the window.

This kind of dazzling and incomparably sacred visual effect gave Odin an extraordinary feeling that his brother had already transcended the world.

Even though Thanes hadn't spoken yet, Odin instinctively believed what his brother was about to say.

"My foolish brother! You and I both know that the Jötnar world does not have a god of fate representing the [Future]. So, this is just a prophecy of a branch of fate. It is like the roots of the World Tree, with main roots and countless branches. No one can guarantee that your destiny will continue to sprint in that direction."

"Brother is right!"

Odin has always both loved and hated his brother Thanes. He is grateful for his brother's care, but also hates that he cannot ascend to the pinnacle of power in this world because of his brother's existence.

This makes Odin's heart very conflicted. Secretly, he envies, is jealous of, and hates his brother, but on the surface, once his brother says something important or assigns some important task, Odin will definitely listen and do it.

This extreme sense of contradiction makes Odin a little schizophrenic.

Since his brother has said that the prophecy may not come true, how could Odin sit still and wait for death with his personality?

Odin gritted his teeth, and the tail of [Gungnir] in his hand struck the ground, and the hard wooden handle collided with the silver floor tiles, making a clang sound.

"Brother! You don't need to do it yourself, I'll go kill Loki's dog son right now!"

Thanes slowly shook his head: "You have the best relationship with Loki. Saying that will make it difficult for you. I'll take care of this evil god. It just so happens that Loki forged an imperial decree before and owes me two lives."

When Odin heard this, his nose became sore, and a few crocodile tears were squeezed out of the corners of his eyes on the spot.

What a great brother!

Even at this time, he is still taking care of me, his younger brother!

Thinking back, isn't that so?

I, Odin, am the King of Jotunheim, and Vili is the King of Vanaheim. My brother has never treated his brothers badly. On the contrary, I believed in Loki's crooked ideas. I'm so stupid!

With Odin's personality, let alone killing his cousin's son, if it really threatened him, he would not hesitate to attack even his own brothers.

You must know that in the epic, Odin threw Vili to Vanaheim as a hostage. He deliberately threw his stupid brother and the wise giant Mimir, whom he didn't like, over there, and earned Frey and Freya for nothing. Isn't this also a kind of killing with a borrowed knife? It's just that the Vanir only killed Mimir.

This time, with Thanes, this silly brother, helping to take the blame, Odin is of course happy to hide on the sidelines.

In a few words, Odin and Thanes agreed.

Thanes looked at Odin's back and sighed in his heart: Foolish brother! Do you think that if you hide on the sidelines, Loki won't see through your thoughts? As long as you don't desperately protect Loki's son, you are also Loki's enemy.
