Chapter 114 Loki's Secret

Asgard, Asgard

It has been almost two weeks since Thor was expelled by Odin. Sif and the three warriors are very worried, because they all want Thor to come back, but they know Odin's temper and they may exile them as well.

"I'm curious, how did Odin know that we were going to Jotunheim?" said Vosdak, who was gnawing on a chicken leg.

"It was I who asked Heimdall to tell our father after we left," Loki said. "I saved everyone's life, including my foolish brother."

"Loki." Sif, who had been silent all this time, said, "You are the only one here who can save Thor. Go and ask the All-Father to change his mind and let Thor go."

"I refuse." Loki said coldly, "What will happen if I go? Thor is my brother and I love him more than you do. But you also know how arrogant he is. He has been contradicting Odin and trying to start a war. Is this the king you want?"

At this point, Loki turned and left. Sif said with a serious expression: "He may be using Asgard as an excuse, but he has always been jealous of his brother. He definitely doesn't want Thor to come back."

At this moment, Hogan seemed to have thought of something. "Do you remember what the Frost Giant King said? He said that there is a traitor among us. It shouldn't be difficult for a great wizard to let three Frost Giants in, right?"

"You mean... Loki?" Sif's expression was surprised. She knew that Loki was jealous of his brother, but as Odin's biological son, he should not betray Asgard.

Is Loki Odin's biological son?

In the last battle of Jotunheim, Loki and his men fought against the Frost Giants. In the melee, a Frost Giant grabbed Loki's hand.

Ordinary Asgardians would be frozen by the extreme cold if touched by a Frost Giant, but Loki was different. His hand suddenly turned dark blue, just the color of the Frost Giant.

Loki was frightened and quickly let go of his hand and pushed the frost giant into the abyss. But when he returned from Jotunheim, he still had a shadow in his heart.

Why did his hands become like the Avatar's? Is this Pandora's curse?

Loki, who was worried, walked all the way to Odin's treasury. The guards found him and did not stop him. Deep in Odin's treasury, there was a shining treasure box with an icy blue light, which seemed to be calling him.

“Do you long to be your true self?”

Like the whisper of a dream lover, trying to awaken the desire deep in his heart, Loki stood in front of the Box of Winter, and he couldn't help but pick up the treasure box.

The moment he picked up the Winter Box, the treasure box suddenly lit up, and his hands slowly turned blue at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"stop!"

Odin appeared at the door. He looked down at Loki, his tone full of majesty.

"Am I cursed?" Loki said with his back to Odin, his voice trembling.

"Listen to me, kid. I can explain it to you."

Loki slowly turned around, and this time not only did his hands turn blue, his entire body turned into an Avatar, bah, a frost giant, and his eyes were blood red, emitting a terrifying light.

"Who am I?"

"My son, of course."

Loki put down the Box of Winter and walked towards Odin step by step, and at this time, he turned back to his original appearance.

"You brought more than just the Winter Box from Jotunheim, right?" Loki asked coldly.

Odin sighed. He knew that some things could no longer be hidden, so he told Loki everything.

In the great battle between Asgard and Jotunheim in the past, after Odin defeated Laufey, he found a baby in the temple. It was a baby of the Frost Giants, or rather, the child of Laufey, the King of the Frost Giants.

Even the famous god of death Odin couldn't bear to kill a baby in his cradle, so he took the child back to Asgard and raised him as his own son.

"My biological father is that ugly red-eyed monster?" Loki didn't want to accept this reality. He didn't realize that his eyes had turned red. "Then why did you save me? You killed so many frost giants, why didn't you kill me?"

Facing Loki's questioning, Odin's answer was simple, "You are innocent."

"No, you are deceiving me. What is your purpose?" Loki roared angrily.

Odin was silent for a while before he said, "You are the hope for the future. I originally wanted Asgard and Jotunheim to form an alliance to achieve eternal peace and end all wars, but I have changed my mind now."

Loki didn't understand what Odin meant. "Eternal peace? Didn't you sign a contract with the Frost Giants?"

"That doesn't matter anymore, child." Odin said, "And now that Thor has broken the pact, war is about to begin."

"Thor?" Loki's face suddenly changed when he heard his brother's name. "What a bullshit about being born a king. You lied to me. No wonder you favored Thor since we were young. Because I am a frost giant, a monster that scares children in fairy tales. How could you let a monster ascend the throne of Asgard?"

"Listen to my explanation."

Odin was so anxious that he almost vomited blood. He had previously thought that both of his sons could become kings, one being the King of Asgard and the other being the King of Frost Giants.

Thor and Loki are originally brothers. If they get along well, maybe there will never be a war between Asgard and Jotunheim.

Later on, he gradually realized that he really treated Loki as his own son. He didn't want Loki to go to the cold Jotunheim to be the king of the frost giants, he just wanted to protect him.

But he underestimated the struggle for the throne. You have to know that there is a world where the five major families fight for the Iron Throne and it is a bloody battle. You kill my father, I kill your son, you kill my brother, I kill your daughter... It's really a river of blood.

Not to mention the throne of Asgard. First of all, it is made of pure gold. Secondly, it represents the supreme status. The ruler of the nine kingdoms has a seat in the entire Marvel Universe.

Before Odin could explain, his body shook and he fell to the ground. Loki was stunned and hurried to Odin. Odin's body became very weak and his hair was gradually becoming dry.

"Guards, come and save my dad! He's dying!"

Odin hoped to use the affection between his two sons to bring eternal peace between Asgard and Jotunheim, but Loki misinterpreted his meaning, thinking that Odin was just trying to use him.

Odin originally regretted after expelling Thor. The problem of his eldest son had not been solved yet, and the problem of his second son popped up again, which made the weak Odin fall directly into Odinsleep.

Odinsleep, in simple terms, means Odin is going to sleep. As the king of Asgard, Odin needs to enter a deep sleep every year to restore his divine power, which is also known as the Odin force.

During this time, his powers weaken and he becomes vulnerable, and if he runs out of power or is seriously injured, he may enter Odin's sleep prematurely.

Just like this time.

Odin lay in a golden halo with his eyes closed as if he was asleep.

"I'm really not used to seeing him like this, like an old man." Loki said with a complicated expression.

Frigga held Odin's hand and said, "He is old. This time Odin's sleep may be longer than before."

"Why are you hiding the secret of my life from me?" Loki asked.

"This is a white lie." Frigga said softly, "We don't want you to feel that you are different from others. You are our son Loki, and we will always be a family. Your father will come back to us, just like your brother."

"Thor, hasn't he been exiled by his father?" Loki frowned.

From what his mother said, Thor didn't seem to be exiled forever. If Thor wasn't here, he would be the only heir, and the throne of Asgard would definitely be his.

If possible, he hoped that the simple-minded but strong-limbed guy would never come back!
