Chapter 261: Ah, My Head is Itchy, Maybe It's About to Grow a Brain

The temporary victory over Dormammu didn't immediately bring anything to the citizens of Earth Civilization.

Or rather, most of them didn't even know what had happened. This news was currently in a confidential state and hadn't been opened to the public.

But the various interstellar-level influences it brought were gradually fermenting.

Asgard, Council Chamber, a pile of work documents as high as a person was waiting for Frigga to handle.

One of the main items came from the Asgardian army, which was about the Barbarian Assault Team.

Currently, there were two opposite opinions within the Asgardian military. One believed that Earth Civilization was rising too fast and the Barbarian Assault Team should be withdrawn to let Thanos's forces suppress the development of Earth Civilization.

The other believed that they should increase troops to further demonstrate the power belonging to Asgard to Earth Civilization and maintain Asgard's status.

As someone who wasn't good at military decisions, Frigga found it difficult to make a decision between the two opinions, which was also the reason why these documents gradually piled up.

"Thank you for your hard work. These guys have no responsibility at all, simply eating without doing anything!"

Odin's voice suddenly sounded in the Council Chamber.

Frigga turned her head in surprise and saw her husband, the King of Asgard, standing behind her with his hands behind his back.

Odin reached out to Frigga and smiled, pulling Frigga into his arms.

"I have already woken up. Thanks to you during this period."

Odin said, sat in the position Frigga had just occupied, and then his face suddenly changed, bringing a bit of anger, "Where are those two unpromising things?! Are they both dead?!"

Frigga sighed, "One is still on Earth, and the other is looking for news of Hela in the Great Library every day."

Odin snorted coldly. Clearly, he was very dissatisfied with Loki and Thor's performance during his sleep.

"Don't be too harsh on them either. In my opinion, although they haven't done anything beneficial, they have also been quiet and haven't caused trouble."

Frigga spoke for her two sons. In her view, Loki and Thor not doing anything wrong could already be considered a plus.

Odin was still very dissatisfied. As the heir to Asgard, just not causing trouble was far from enough.

"The rise of Midgard is already a foregone conclusion. Now they are still mediocre and don't know what to do. I don't know how to hand everything over to them."

Odin was angry while rapidly processing the documents in front of him.

The seal in his hand followed his handwriting to make approvals, sending back the vast majority of the documents.

If everything needed the King to make a decision, then what was the use of the Military Council? And these opinions were clearly first drafts, without even writing down the processing suggestions and related reasons and data.

This was clearly bullying Frigga who was looking at the documents. When Odin was in power, no one dared to submit work reports like this.

Frigga did the auxiliary work throughout, just like many years ago. Not long after, there wasn't much work left in front of Odin.

The last few documents that hadn't been approved were about the heirs of Asgard. Odin looked at the opinions above and fell into deep thought.

Frigga kept quiet on the side, absolutely not expressing any opinion, nor showing any bias. To her, it was fine whoever of Loki and Thor became the Crown Prince.

Another ten-something minutes passed. Odin leaned back in his chair a bit tiredly and closed his eyes.

Frigga's hands pressed on his temples, soothing his nerves.

"The Ancient One led the team to expel Dormammu and also snatched an undigested planet from Dormammu's mouth."

Odin suddenly opened his mouth and said the big event that had just happened. To tell the truth, if it weren't for this, he should still be sleeping now.

"She has always been good, and Dormammu's retreat is also considered good news for us. I will write a congratulatory message and send it to them later."

Frigga opened her mouth softly. She personally had some good feelings for the Ancient One.

"Hmm... when sending the congratulatory message, let that rebellious son come back by the way. Don't stay on Earth anymore. Is a woman on Earth that attractive, more attractive than Asgard?!"

Odin's words were full of dissatisfaction.

"Alright, didn't you exile him? Alone and miserable, what's wrong with liking someone who helped him."

Frigga retracted her hand and lightly poked Odin. She didn't approve of throwing Thor to Earth at the time.

"I didn't want to let him grow a little, but it seems I thought too much. How can there be progress in a beauty's arms." Odin said immediately after.

"It seems you think I held you back?" Frigga took a step to the side.

"That's not what I meant. How can that mortal compare to you? You are a virtuous helper." Odin gave a dry laugh. He didn't want to make his wife angry.

"I think it's not bad. Someone who can suppress your son won't be a mediocre person." Frigga just took a stance and didn't really intend to quarrel with Odin, "I haven't seen my son's partner yet."

"Then when you send the congratulatory message, send an invitation letter by the way. I also want to see if she is suitable to be a princess."

Odin said and looked up toward the Great Library, "In addition, call Loki over. I want to see what he has been doing."

"Good." Frigga got up and prepared to walk out.

"Wait." Odin suddenly called Frigga, "I'll go with you directly, make a surprise attack, and see what he has found out after checking for so long."

Earth, Thor was doing some training, and Fandral ran over in a hurry.

"What's the matter? Distracted?" Volstagg looked at him and asked.

"The Prince can return to Asgard!" Fandral said happily, "I just received a letter transferred by the Masters of the Mystic Arts. It's the Queen's order, summoning the Prince back."

When Thor heard this, he was first overjoyed, and then looked at the letter Fandral brought over with others.

"Let's pack our things quickly, what are we waiting for? By the way, should we bring some local specialties back? Coming out for a trip, we should bring some gifts." Fandral said on the side.

"Don't be anxious, rash, is now the time to buy gifts?" Volstagg pointed out to Fandral.

Fandral didn't quite understand. He didn't think through why no one else had the intention to set off immediately.

"This is Father's order." Thor suddenly said after putting down the letter.

Sif nodded, "It should be correct, otherwise the letter wouldn't have asked you to bring Jane along."

"Father should be planning to make a surprise inspection." Thor was wise, not like his usual self, "... Fandral, did the Masters of the Mystic Arts just transfer a letter?"

Facing Thor's inquiry, Fandral shook his head, "I don't know."

"Volstagg, you go and contact the people of the Masters of the Mystic Arts and ask about the situation. Hogun, help me find Jane." Thor issued orders.

"Yes."

After Volstagg and Hogun left, Fandral approached Sif and opened his mouth in a low voice, "What's wrong? Are we not going back?"

"We definitely have to go back, but think about it, why was the letter transferred by the Masters of the Mystic Arts?" Sif said.

【Recommended, the book-chasing app is really easy to use, download it here. huanyuanapp everyone can try it.】

"Hmm... this is their territory, isn't it normal for them to transfer it?" Fandral scratched his head.

"... Public and private are distinct. The official channel of public affairs couldn't just say a sentence asking the Prince to go home. The person transferring it shouldn't be the official personnel of the Masters of the Mystic Arts, and the seal on the letter should also be the Queen's private seal." Sif sighed and explained to Fandral.

"Hmm... so?" Fandral continued to scratch his head.

"So, something big must have happened that we don't know about, that Father decided to let me go back." Thor said immediately after.

"Ah? Is that so?" Fandral was still confused, "I thought it was just that the God King had just woken up, eh no, it's the Queen's order, why say it's the God King's instruction?"

"Eh..." Thor sighed. Fandral hadn't made any progress, "Didn't Loki say that Mother had long wanted me to go back? Why was the document sent over only now?"

"Yeah, why?" Fandral asked back, his hand still scratching his head.

"Usually let you look at the news on Earth, draw inferences from one instance, you just don't look, soaking in the bar every day." Sif rolled her eyes and said.

"Uh..."

Fandral tried hard to think. The more he thought, the itchier his scalp became.

Thor patted his arm, "Stop scratching, the brain won't grow even if you scratch it. Go and prepare some gifts, and bring the data disk in my study by the way."

"No problem."

Fandral responded. Don't say, this abandonment of thinking, the head didn't itch all of a sudden.

After Fandral left, Thor sat down, thought for a while, and looked at Sif, "Book a ticket, we have to go and get Mjolnir first."

"Not waiting for Volstagg and the others to come back?" Sif asked.

"They probably can't ask for any news. Something big that isn't announced to the public must have happened. Father will tell us when we go back." Thor said and paused, "Forget it, you stay here. After Hogun comes back, help explain the situation to Jane, pack things up. After I get Mjolnir, we will set off."

"Are you really planning to take her back?" Sif couldn't help but take a step forward and ask.

"Of course, Father has given the order, how can I not obey." Thor looked at Sif, "And, Jane is a citizen of Earth Civilization, nothing will happen, and nothing can happen."

"I know..." Sif accepted reality, "I will arrange it."

"Then I'll leave it to you." Thor patted Sif on the shoulder and said.

Looking at Thor's departing back, Sif sighed long.

Earth has a saying, wise men don't enter the river of love, but Thor's speed of falling into the river of love is surprisingly fast.

Could it be that I really delayed him?

Sif picked up a glass of wine beside her and drank it in one gulp.

Gulp gulp gulp, bitter wine into the throat, heart aches, and still have to prepare everything for the rival in love. This is really a sin.

At the same time, in the video conference, the Ancient One attended and was chatting and discussing things with various leaders.

"Odin is probably unable to sit still. It is very likely that Asgard is going to set a Crown Prince. It's either Loki or Thor, there are no other candidates." The Ancient One put down the congratulatory message sent in Frigga's name in her hand.

"Should we interfere with this matter? After all, compared to Loki, Thor is more in line with our interests and is closer to us."

"Don't do this kind of thing, don't cause trouble for our civilization. Provoking Odin at this time is not a wise move. Once he finds out that we are deliberately interfering with the choice of heir, he will definitely turn against us directly."

The Ancient One warned. Don't look at Odin's lifespan not being much left, but the more this is the case, the less you should provoke him. The counterattack of a dying beast will kill people.

Speaking of this, the Ancient One also thought of a headache-inducing matter. Hela was still on Earth.

Although Hela had long fallen out with Odin and had been locked up for so long, if Loki and Thor's performance was too poor, it wasn't impossible for Odin to take Hela back.

Anyway, as long as Odin lived for one day, he could suppress Hela.

And, Hela's strength was also relatively suitable for taking the position when Earth Civilization was rising rapidly. Her strength could ensure that Asgard's strength wouldn't appear too much fluctuation after changing people.

However, Hela's personality was difficult for Earth Civilization to accept. This guy's thinking must still be stuck in the time when Asgard was conquering the Nine Realms.

Hela was a proper war faction, expansion faction. A big reason for the conflict between Odin and Hela at the time was because Odin wanted to stop, while Hela refused to stop.

If Hela really took the position, Earth Civilization must be prepared for allies to become enemies. Hela might launch a war of extremely large scale.

But fortunately, even if this matter was to appear, it wouldn't be in the next few years. At least when Odin and the Ancient One were still alive, Hela couldn't openly start a war.

"How is the preparation for the negotiation with the survivors of the Partypooper civilization? The interstellar navigation technology they mastered is what we need. The border of the solar system cannot always rely on other forces for defense."

The Ancient One suddenly changed the topic and opened her mouth.

"Preliminary contact has already been made. The specific negotiation meeting will open in three days. Do you also want to attend?"

The Ancient One shook her head, "I won't meddle at my age, you guys talk yourselves. Just a reminder, the Barbarian Assault Team can face the Chitauri fleet under Thanos, and can also face us."

"Without a star fleet, we cannot guarantee our rights and interests. The war on the level of true civilization in the universe cannot be decided by one or two demon gods simply."

"Dimensional demon gods won't work either, otherwise Thanos wouldn't just be a wanted criminal until now. I hope you can understand this point."

After pointing out the key, the Ancient One got up, "Alright, this short meeting will end here. Odin is probably waiting for me a bit anxiously. I have to meet him. In addition, don't forget to notify other forces that are on good terms with us about the result of the war with Dormammu, such as those extraordinary creatures."

"Understood."
