Chapter 447: Star, Jotunheim (7)
Skathis memory of her resurrection was foggy, having met Odin again only half-conscious.
Skathi, my loyal friend and subject.
Skathi initially thought that she was just dreaming again. The other Celestials betrayal had exhausted her enough for Fenrir to devour her. Even though Celestials were called fancy names like immortals, she knew that death was still their true demise. After all, she had experienced it herself.
Skathi, can you hear me? Please answer me if you can.
It didnt take her long to realize that she wasnt hallucinating.
I, the great king of the Aesir, stand above all Celestials. I reign over our world and galaxy. The day I stand at the summit will eventually come.
Odin, Skathis king, was alive! Skathi was indescribably enraptured. Long ago, Odin had once come back from death already. In an attempt to acquire great knowledge, he sacrificed himself before Yggdrasil and obtained unchallengeable power. When he returned to the land of the living, he became a Celestial King.
It seemed Odin had done it again. Skathi couldnt even begin to fathom how supreme the level Odin had reached after going through two deaths and resurrections.
And Im the person you chose as your king. Allow me to ask you once more. Can you hear me, Skathi? If so, answer my call.
Skathi wished to stand beside Odin again. Believing that Odin was Bestlas rightful heir, she abandoned and her identity as a Frost Giant to join and become an Asynja[1]. To her, only Odin had the legitimacy and capability to continue and surpass Bestlas great accomplishments!
Skathis days with Odin had been so glorious that she had believed that would be eternal. However, other Celestials couldnt just sit still and watch a great being come to life. Hence, just like Bestla, they betrayed Odin, leading to his downfall. Even turned its back on him in the end.
As fell on them, Skathi promised never to give those damn Celestials any consideration if she were given a second chance at life. She would burn and trample over everything in her path and build an eternal castle on top of the remains.
Offered that very chance she desired, she grabbed the hand of the person who broke through the darkness to reach her. Like a person swimming to the surface from the depths of the ocean, Skathi rose again from the .
It's great to meet all of you once more, my dearest friends and subjects.
Skathi wasnt the only one by Odins side. Thor, Baldur, Tyr, Heimdall, Sif, Sigyn All of her comrades, people whom she had fought alongside during their conquest, were there.
Well burn down, trample over, and tear the world apart. That is how were going to build a lofty fortress no one would dare attack, Odin told all his subjects. Were not the old anymore. Rather than dwelling on our former glory, we should start all over again
In some ways, Odin looked to be lamenting about his humble present, but Skathi and her comrades hearts pounding hard nonetheless. They believed that they would do much better than before if they started over.
Were going to do this step by step. Our progress may look slow now, but we have to be patient enough to avoid repeating our mistakes.
Odins every word had power. [Wordwielding]. It was his magicno, his divine magic that turned his words into magic spells, turning them into reality.
However, at the end of it all, we will have everything below our feet! , the Great Universe, and those who arrogantly look down at us from above!
Skathi trembled in excitement, having noticed that Odin wasnt just declaring to take over one Worldline. She and the others believed Worldline #801 to be their entire world, but Odin looked further beyond and above!
So march. Show the Aesirs greatness to everyone else in the world.
As commanded, Skathi and every other Aesir sprang into action.
So that was what happened.
Skathi stopped daydreaming when she heard a voice, finding Chang-Sun standing in front of her with his [Gnostic Eye] wide open. Seeing him not only reminded her of the defeat she suffered at his hands while fighting Bergelmir but also made her forget about Odins warning to run if she ran into Chang-Sun.
Becoming his enemy will be a headache, Chang-Sun speculated.
He hadnt been too worried about Odin before because he believed their goals aligned, but this encounter with Skathi made him realize that that might not be the case.

Chang-Sun walked over to Bergelmir, who was panting hard, as he sorted out his thoughts.
Huff Huff
Bergelmir was still alive, but he was already in critical condition before Kang Chan arrived. The chance of resuscitating him was low.
Bergelmir, Chang-Sun said.
Ha... Haha Look who it is I see the greenhorn king Of is here Are you here to laugh at my pathetic end?
Bergelmir hadnt changed at all since their last encounter, choosing not to hide his scorn as he flaunted his sharp tongue.
Chang-Sun knew that this was merely Bergelmirs defense mechanism, though. In contrast to , which had undergone a radiant revival, had fallen so far that barely anyone could maintain their identity anymore. Being trapped in such a place alone would surely make anyone think and behave like Bergelmir.
No, Im not. I respect you.
Unlike the other Frost Giants, Bergelmir maintained his identity. He was probably very proud of himself as the King.
Bergelmir rolled his eyes. You... respect me? Ha! You have got to be kidding me
I mean it. You tried to protect until the bitter end, believing that it was your duty as its king. If I were in your position, I dont know if I could have done the same.
Bergelmir glared at Chang-Sun, trying hard not to pant.
Bergelmir glared at Chang-Sun, trying hard not to pant. Get to the point. What are you trying to say?
As his end drew nearer, he chose to spend his last moments showing his dignity as a king.
Your throne, Chang-Sun said.
I told you that its min!
Would you rather disappear? If you truly are a king, then uphold your responsibilities as one.
Bergelmir knew very well what his responsibility was. Bestla and the previous King used to tell him about it over and over before his death.
A king should be able to provide solace and peace to their people. They are to bring their country glory and prosperity. If difficult times have made those impossible, then they should make preparations so their descendants can continue their legacy.
Even if Bergelmir were to die right now, he should still ensure the safety of his country and people. He had to serve as the foundation that would allow them to rise again.
Surtr chose a good heir Bergelmir shut his eyes. Maybe it was fate that I met you another Odin King BestlasAfter muttering to himself, Bergelmir slowly opened his determined eyes. I!
