Appearing on Donna, once again in my Vibranium armour, and Divine form, I approach the Lokisons' house, and knock on the door.
It was midday here, and the red sun shone brightly over my head. Hearing some footsteps, I turn my attention back towards the door, and smile as it opens.
Jormungandr, in his human form, is the one to greet me. He was the one that looked the least like Loki. Brown hair, and yellow eyes, Jormungandr had a face and body built like Thor's.
Where Narfi and Vali were lean, Jormungandr was bulky, although with muscles. He was also tall, at 6'5. Narfi and Vali both looked like Loki, with black hair and green eyes. But Narfi was physically 19, while Vali was 15.
Well, they'll probably begin growing again once they're a part of Andalok. Odin's curse is already gone, but it will probably only disappear completely once they're Gods of a Pantheon once again.
As a snake, Jormungandr's size wasn't constant. He could get from a few inches long to literally cover Earth. He couldn't do that to Donna, though. His size maxed out at Earth's equator, for some Magical reason.
"Jordson." Jormungandr greets, opening the door and leaning back.
Nodding, I say, "Jormungandr. Could you gather your brothers within a few minutes? It is time for you three to become a part of my Pantheon."
Jormungandr stays in his spot, and asks, "Could we refuse to become your Gods?"
I smile, amused, and say, "You could, but you will become mortals then. Or die."
"What? How?" taken aback, Jormungandr asks.
"Yggdrasil is destroyed, Jormungandr. Your source of Divinity is no more. What do you think will happen?" I ask. Honestly, I expected them going back on their deal. They're Loki's sons after all.
Jormungandr frowns, but then says, "Fine. We'll go through with it."
"It's not like you have a choice, dear Lokison. And do be quick. We need to induct you to my Pantheon before the Energy blast reaches Induk." I say, taking a few steps back to wait for them to come out.
A minute later, Vali, Narfi, and Jormungandr come out of the door, and Vali asks, "So.. Father's dead? How?"
Seeing that even the two other brothers look interested, albeit resigned, I say, "The God Bomb. Loki stayed alive until the last moment, and only died when the final explosion happened, along with Baldur, Sigyn, Heimdall, Hela, and Thor. Fenrir died earlier, by the hands of Baldur. You'll probably see them all once again during the next cycle." if they're reborn, that is. I know Fenrir and Hela will be born, and so will most of the other Gods. But I know nothing about Baldur.
The brothers nod, not showing much emotion on their faces. I'll allow them time to mourn later.
With a wave of my hand, I create a green portal to Andalok, on Induk, and into the Throne Room. Taking a deep breath, I shout, "KALI! CHHAYA! IT'S TIME!"
As one, the two sisters teleport near the three thrones. Kali and Chhaya sit on their own thrones, and I join them in the middle throne.
Looking at the still standing, and staring Lokisons, I command, "Kneel!"
The three brothers do, dipping their heads down. I say, "Look up. We are the First Gods of Andalok. The Elder Trinity. This is Lady Kali, Goddess of the Moon, and this is Lady Chhaya, Goddess of the Sun. I am Theos, God of Induk. Before you can become a part of us, as the first of the new Gods, you will have to agree to a few conditions."
The Elder Trinity is a term we came up for ourselves, when it was decided to bring in more Gods. It was a good name, if I say so myself. And it will be even better when I abdicate my non-existent throne to one of my children.
"Didn't you have an agreement with Father that we will become your Gods? There was nothing about conditions." Vali, the more outspoken of the three says. He is 15, so I won't punish him for that.
Instead of me, Chhaya answers, and says, "Your father asked Lord Theos to add you three to the Pantheon. Agreement or not, that includes reassurances from you three. If you reject any one of them, sad as we will be to see you go, you will be shown the door to Midgard."
As sad as it was, it was the only option we had. Figuratively speaking, Vali, Narfi and Jormungandr are unknowns to us. I don't know them beyond the stories, and even that isn't much detailed. So, we have to be sure that they won't betray us before I add them to my Pantheon.
It's not like they have any other option anyway.
Jormungandr dips his head, and says, "We accept to listen to your conditions, Lord Theos."
This time, Kali says, "For 2000 years, you won't be allowed to leave Andalok, except for when it is to go to Induk, our planet. And even that will be allowed only when it is to keep an eye on the Andals, the mortals of Induk."
The three brothers frown, but have a short conversation with their eyes. Finally, all three nod, albeit reluctantly, and Jormungandr says, "We accept, Lady Kali."
Chhaya then says, "Once you're allowed to leave the boundaries of Induk, you three will spend at least 10 consecutive years carrying your duties as Gods of Andalok before you get to have vacations of a maximum of 5 years. The ratio stands for larger years."
This time, the hesitation is not as apparent as before, and once again, Jormungandr acts as the spokesperson, and accepts.
Now, it's my turn. I bring their attention to me, and say, "Lastly, there are two more conditions. First, you will limit the number of Demigods you have, to something manageable. This one is especially for you, Vali. 17 Demigods is not something you should have in one generation. Secondly, you won't try and cause discord within Induk by any means. Not even teaching other religions is allowed. Andalok is the only Pantheon of this planet, and it will remain so for as long as we are alive."
This time the reluctance is more apparent. Vali really wants to procreate, doesn't he? And the thing about teaching other religions is a genuine worry. Earth faced a lot of problems, and is literally the only planet with more than one set of Gods. Many of the problems could have been avoided if the Gods had just gotten together into a single Mega-Pantheon.
Once the three brothers accept, I close my eyes and call forth the Magic of Andalok. With the wave of my hand, I create a spear from the Divine Energy, and slam it on the ground.
The Lokisons straighten up, as I say, "Do you swear to uphold the laws of Andalok, protect Andalok, Induk, and its people, no matter the danger?"
"We swear." The brothers answer, as one.
"Do you swear to not conspire against Andalok, Induk, and its people or Gods?"
"We swear."
"Do you swear to keep all our secrets within Andalok, no matter the consequences, and no matter the state of your loyalty to Us?"
"We swear."
Smiling, I say, "Then rise, Vali, Narfi, and Jormungandr, as Gods of Andalok. We will talk more once you wake up."
Before the new Gods- but not yet of Andalok- can get up, I slam the Magic made spear on the ground. I make my eyes glow green with power, and as one, the eyes of the three brothers roll back into their heads, and they fall down, unconscious.
Summoning three trees around them, I cover them entirely in the wood of the trees, and start feeding them the Magic of Andalok. This will make them into Gods of Andalok within a few days at the most.
Looking at the trees in the middle of the Throne room, I say, "I should have thought this through. Could have at least placed the trees somewhere else."
Chhaya snorts, while Kali just laughs openly.
"Yes, you should have. How'd the War go?" Chhaya says, and I begin my tale of the War.
Manasi runs in from the room that held Sonny and the Ship, in the middle of my tale, and whines, "I wanted to be the first new Goddess of Andalok!"
This causes us to laugh once again, as Kali says, "And you will be, Daughter mine. These three are Gods. You'll be the first New Goddess of Andalok. If you pass your trial that is."
Giving the trees another look, I say, "I'll leave these three in your capable hands Kali, Chhaya. I need to go back to Donna. I just revealed myself as a Celestial to Odin, and right before he died he did something. The highest likelihood is that he informed the other Pantheons about me. I need to know what happened, and be ready for any problems."
Chhaya softly asks, "Should we expect War?"
I snort, and say, "Lets not jump to conclusions, Chhaya. Mother will come to Donna first, when she has some news. And I will be sure to inform you."
"Be careful, Theos." Kali says, while Manasi nods.
Chhaya kisses me briefly, and whispers, "Take care."
Smiling, I create a portal back to Donna. It was just my 6th year of staying away from Donna, but I was already missing it. Summoning the boxes given by Odin, I open the first one, the one given by the Dwarves, and begin reading.
Time to tackle the forging problems.
~
Back on Terra, the Council of Godheads tackle a big problem of their own. Sky Gods. Odin Borson, the Skyfather of a Pantheon just destroyed, and already forgotten by the majority of Gods, had given them a valuable piece of information.
Theos, the Son of Jord, Gaea, Izanami, Aditi, Danu, etc, was a Celestial. For days, the Council had sessions, debating what to do about the imposter God. Some debated attacking him with their entire force. Some, like the ever willing War Gods, offered to take care of him by themselves.
Only one, one of the very few who had actually met the Celestial, was silent. After many days of such pointless debates, Ammon-Ra finally speaks up, and says, "Enough."
At once, his word his heard, and every God there stops speaking. Even though he had abdicated his Throne half a million years ago, Ammon-Ra was still someone that was feared throughout the Pantheons. Everyone knew about the God Eater, and you didn't just continue talking when the God Eater himself orders silence.
Once everyone quiets down, Ammon-Ra says, "Like small children, you're debating over what to do. Did a single person here ask, is Theos actually an imposter?"
"What do you mean? Odin wouldn't lie! If he said Theos is a Celestial, then he definitely is." Zeus says, being the most vocal in the favour of an attack.
He had met Theos once before, when he came to Olympus demanding a battle to the death with one minor God, Andreas or something. While not weak, by any standards, Zeus had not found Theos a threat to him, personally. And so, he had allowed it, after gaining some favours from Gaea of course, and after listening to the reason.
Scoffing, Ammon-Ra stands, and says, "I've met the Celestial, as you call him. Theos is his name. I've seen him when he was a babe sucking on our mother's teats, and I've seen him when he was playing with the monkeys near our mother's home. Theos is anything but an Imposter."
As Zeus opens his mouth once again, Ammon-Ra glares at him, and says, "I am not refuting Odin's dying claim, but I believe that it's better to talk with my mother first. Unless you believe, Zeus, that Lady Gaea was fooled by a Celestial on her own planet?"
Scowling, Zeus backs down, and says, "Fine. Summon Lady Gaea then. Let's see her opinion about this imposter."
The other Gods agree to that, knowing that Gaea wouldn't like them deciding the fate of her son, if he is actually her son, without her being present. So, Ammon-Ra sends a message to his mother, summoning her to the Council of Godheads.

A/N:
Just FYI, in the future fights, he might hold back, and fight only as a God in some fights. No matter how much I depower him, Theos the Celestial is still an OP character, and only Knull, OBA, Gorr, etc are threats to him for now. So, yeah. I definitely made a mistake in making him half Celestial, but I'm going to stand by my decision now. Enjoy!
Thank you for your support!

Well, you could have it so that using his celestial powers to fight causes way too much collateral damage because he's too young to properly control them. Have it so that his uses up until now were okay because he was basically a baby celestial in terms of strength so he didn't do a Chicxulub by accident while fighting.
It would actually be more realistic than him having perfect control regardless of how strong\experienced he is, and it makes much more sense for him to grow his strength far faster than his control.

Gaea had been expecting it for a while now, the call of the Council. She just didn't expect Atum himself to call her.
Ever since the unfortunate first meeting of the Council of Godheads, where a dying Odin revealed to everyone that her son was a Celestial, she hadn't showed herself to the other Gods.
Scathach, who had heard about Theos's Celestial heritage from the Dagda, the ruler of Otherworld and Gaea's own son, had kept her company. Unsurprisingly, Scathach refused to believe that Theos was some sort of spy or an imposter sent by the Sky Gods.
And so, when the message from Atum came, Scathach wished her luck, and went to visit Theos on his planet, while Gaea went to the Astral plane, to join the Council.
Appearing in front of the other Gods, Gaea asks, "What is it, that you have called me here for, Ra?"
Her son, Ra, frowns at the other Gods who stay silent, out of fear and respect, and says, "My brother, Theos. I need to know why Odin Borson proclaimed him to be a Celestial."
Looking around, Gaea turns her eyes over everyone present. Heading this meeting were Ammon-Ra, Zeus, and Vishnu. Horus sat right behind Ra, Aphrodite behind Zeus, and Indra behind Vishnu.
Other Kings of their respective Pantheons were spread all over the room, without any order, and some were even laying down on mattresses.
Eochaid, or Dagda, as he's more commonly known, her son as Danu, was seated at the back, with his older brother Lud right beside him.
Once done observing, Gaea looks back to Ammon-Ra, and says, "The answer is quite simple, Atum. Theos is a Celestial."
Pandemonium erupts all around, as every God there, even her own Sons and Daughters, start yelling at her, and each other. Gaea forgives that, as most of them were ruled by their fear of Celestials. The Leaders of the Council, Ra, Zeus, and Vishnu stay silent however, with their eyes looking at the amused Gaea.
"SILENCE!" Ra yells, at the top of his voice, stopping the needless shouting. As silence resumes, he says, "Please explain, Lady Neith. I have seen him when he was a child, and felt the Divinity within him. I've felt the same connection that I have to you, between him and you. If he was a Celestial, then I would have known. How can you still say that he's a Celestial?"
Chuckling, Gaea says, "I won't tell you everything, Atum."
"You will tell us everything, Gaea! THE COUNCIL DEMANDS IT!" Zeus interrupts her, yelling the last part.
Tutting, Gaea simply says, "Please stay silent, Zeus. You need not be reminded that you're just the King of Olympus, and not of the World? Right?"
"You do not scare me, woman! I've fought and killed Titans before." Zeus proudly proclaims, slamming his fist on the small table in front of him.
Before Gaea can say anything, Ammon-Ra puts a hand between them, and says, "Stay silent, you moron. This is not a battle you can win, not even with all of us Gods behind you. And mother, please don't taunt him."
As Zeus stammers, Gaea says, "Well, I need to have some entertainment, my son. Living so long does get a bit boring, you know. Now, do you actually want to listen, or should I leave you all to make your own wrong assumptions?"
"Please continue, Lady Aditi." Vishnu says, after patting the sulking Zeus on the back.
Nodding, Gaea says, "Very well. 3 Million years ago, before you New Gods had even begun forming, a Celestial named Madonna first came to Terra, hiding her Celestial form underneath a humanoid face. For anyone that looked, she would have been just a normal mortal. Except for me, obviously, because she did step her foot on my planet. The Titans met her, and so did the only Gods of the time, Asgardians of the previous Cycle. You yourself met her a few times, Atum, albeit in many different forms. She did not harm anyone, however, and just lived amongst us. And then, some centuries later, she left."
Letting them absorb it, she continues, "A few thousand years later, once again she returned, lived, and left. And yes, she was the same Celestial. I recognized her. Again and again, she came, lived amongst whoever lived here, and then left. Eternals, Demigods, mortals, Gods, and even Aliens. She masqueraded as them all. Even after you all were born, she kept returning to Terra. All the while, I kept my distance, not wanting to offend her, or startle her into attacking us somehow. Even I was afraid of the Celestials, you know. Unlike you all, I have actually witnessed their full might."
"Then, 500,000 years ago, when she returned again, I introduced myself to her. I was curious about why she kept returning. One thing led to another, and we mated, which gave rise to our son, Theos. Alas, Madonna died more than 7000 years ago, and so, I raised Theos alone, as my Godly son, hiding the fact that he has a second parent from everyone. So, yes. Theos is my Son, and he is a Celestial." Gaea finishes, making sure to look at every God there.
Taking a few seconds to think it over, Ammon-Ra gets a bit upset, and asks, "Why did you not tell me about it, mother? He could have been a threat to all of us."
Chuckling, Gaea says, "The only way Theos will be a threat to you all, is if you try to harm me, or our planet, my Son. Just like you, Theos calls Terra Home. He was born here, raised here, and even if he has another home now, he still calls this planet a home, and had already taken steps to protect it. You can ask the Sorcerer Supreme about it, if you wish. Make of that, what you will, but remember. Theos is only a danger to you if you want him to be."
The Gods talk amongst each other for a few minutes, and the council breaks up. Gaea returns to her island, to meet up with Scathach who had returned from Donna. A few days later, she once again gets called to the Council.
As she presents herself to the Council, Atum once again leads it, and says, "We have decided, Lady Neith."
"And what have you decided, my dear son?" Gaea asks, tilting her head in curiosity.
Atum says, "While we have concluded that Theos isn't a threat to us, or our planet, his presence here can bring other Celestials, or other dangerous beings to us. With that in mind, the Council has decided to banish the Celestial known as Theos, from our planet."
"And what if a threat approaches our planet, that we cannot defeat?" Gaea asks, knowing that Theos won't like this, at all. He was being abandoned for being what he is, even if he saved their lives.
"We will handle it." Zeus says, stopping whatever intelligent answer Atum might have created.
Sighing, Atum says, "I apologize, mother. I know how much you love him, but I cannot put him above the safety of those I look after."
Gaea sighs, and says, "I expected more of you, Atum." She then looks at everyone present, and says, "2 weeks ago, my son saved the Aesir Pantheon from being slaves to higher beings. He fought and killed The Mangog, who was a threat to all of us present here. And how doed he get repaid? By being banished by the Gods of the planet he protected."
"I'll tell you this, now. Some day into the far future, you all will regret this decision. And I won't need to lift a single finger to make it possible." With that, Gaea leaves the Council of Godheads with scowls on their faces, and returns to her island.
Once back home, she takes Scathach to Donna, to give Theos the news personally. She already knew how the conversation would go.
~~~
"They banished me?!" I yell, not believing it at first. But then, I realize it's Gods I'm talking about, and become angry. "Of course they did. Bloody morons, the lot of them. Is this what I get for trying to save everyone on Terra?"
Scathach snorts, leaning back on the comfortable beach chair she had me conjure for her, and says, "You should have expected it, Theos. No God, no matter who it is, appreciates it when someone is too strong. Except me, of course."
"Of course." I snark, rolling my eyes, and then turn to my mother. I ask, "What did Atum say? For that matter, what did Agamotto say?"
Mother frowns, probably being disappointed in her oldest son, and says, "Atum was regretful of having to banish you, but I know that he was the one that suggested it. To be fair to him, Zeus was suggesting declaring War on you, which even Atum didn't see much point in."
"That doesn't make it better. I honestly expected better from Atum, since he was the one I was closest to, amongst my siblings." I say, getting a tiny bit angry at Atum.
"You literally stole from him. A lot." Scathach helpfully points out.
"I settled it in that horrible Quest he sent me on. Well, not all of it was horrible." I grin, remembering my good old days traipsing around Terra, and the best times with Hathor. I should visit her again, just to spite Atum and his son. Maybe I should take Chhaya with me, see what she does with a submissive woman like Hathor. Damn, this gives me some ideas.
"As for Agamotto," Mother's voice sounds, bringing me out of my lewd thoughts about Hathor, "He was disappointed in the Gods, alright. For him, you were one of the strongest Magic users on Terra, who was willing to help if some Demon attacked. And the Explosion of the God Bomb had some horrible effects on the shields, as you know."
Nodding, I say, "Yeah. If they haven't yet, every Demon out there must be preparing for attacks. The explosion has damaged the veil between the Realms too, making it easier for Demons to invade if they want."
I should probably send some commiserating gift to Agamotto or something. It was kinda my fault that it happened.
Mother opens her mouth to say something, but stops. As one, we both look above us, to see a burning meteor approaching at very high speeds. As we look closer however, we are shocked into gasping.
"That's.. not a meteor." I mumble, honestly surprised at this happening.
Mother chokes, and then starts chuckling. She says, "Oh I should have expected him to do this."
"What? What is it?" Scathach asks, the only one not able to see what's going on, as the object was just now entering the atmosphere.
I just point at the spot, and say, "That."
Scathach looks up, now able to see the fireball approaching us at very high speeds. We don't have to wait long, as barely a minute after first becoming visible to us, the object crashes on the ground some 100 meters away from us, creating a large crater.
"BOOOOM!!" the explosion sounds, sending dust and debris all around.
Once the dust cloud clears, we see a crater 20 meters wide in all directions from the centre. And right in the middle, sitting in a tilted position, was the object.
"A Hammer? What's so special about a hammer?" Scathach asks, looking at the object of our focus with confusion.
I look at her, confused at first but then realize. She doesn't remember Asgard. Of course she doesn't! How could I not remember that.
Mother says, "That's not a hammer, child. That is The Hammer. Mjolnir, the Hammer of Thor, the God of Thunder."
"Who's Thor?" Scathach asks, and mother sighs. Putting her two fingers on Scathach's forehead, she starts showing and telling her what Asgard was, and why she doesn't remember.
Meanwhile, I approach the hammer, receding the Celestial Armour as I go, and put my naked right hand on its handle.
I mumble, "I really hope you didn't do this just to mess with me, Thor, or I'll kick your ass in your next life every chance I get."
And then, I pull. Surprisingly, the hammer lifts easily. And I have to say, Mjolnir is lighter than I'd expected.
Flipping it in my hands a few times, I ask myself, "I'm actually worthy?"
Mother chuckles, making me realize that she had finished explaining everything to Scathach, and says, "Of course you are worthy of it, Theos. While you aren't worthy according to Odin's view, since he's dead, the Hammer is the one that decides if you're worthy. And I think you know what the answer is."
I smile widely, my previous grief over not being allowed to my own planet pushed back, and raise Mjolnir over my head. With just a thought, storm clouds gather over my head, and Lightning strikes my exact spot, once more sending dust all around.
Once the light show ends, I chuckle, which slowly evolves to laughing. Odin revealed me to be a Celestial, and Thor must have known it. This is his idea of an apology, along with a gift. Heh, Odin would have been rolling in his grave, if he had one.
"Are you okay?" Scathach asks, sounding concerned.
To be fair, I did get struck by pure Lightning, and started laughing.
Mother says, "He's alright, Scathach. He is just.. excited, to have Mjolnir in his hands."
And why wouldn't I be? I know my axes, and they are way, way inferior to Mjolnir, when it comes to conducting Divinity. They're not bad, but Mjolnir is just that good. Even most other Uru weapons don't come close to Mjolnir. Only Gungnir and the Destroyer come to mind, surprisingly enough.
But.. I won't use it, much. I'll definitely use it while creating my weapons, but I won't use it as a primary weapon. This hammer will have a special place for itself as my hidden weapon.
"Mother, I'm not even angry anymore! This is an amazing gift! Thor sure knows how to cheer someone up, even from Death." I say, and start walking towards my house.
Chuckling, mother says, "Whatever you say, Theos. As long as you aren't upset, I'm content. Now, I and Scathach shall return home. You better not overwork yourself, alright?"
I just wave her away, and say, "Sure. You're welcome here whenever you wish, Mother, you know that. The same goes for you, Scathach. Just make sure no one follows you here."
The last thing I need is some idiotic God following her, and then dying by my hands. That'll send the Gods over to a war with me. And I don't need another war right after getting out of one.
Hugging me goodbye, Mother teleports to Earth, taking Scathach with her. Which leaves me with my new Hammer.
Mjolnir.
You're the man, Thor. You're the man.

A/N: No, MC won't use Mjolnir as a weapon. It'll be something he'll only use when he wants to say "Surprise, motherf*cker."
Wish me luck! Tata!

Gaea had been expecting it for a while now, the call of the Council. She just didn't expect Atum himself to call her.
Ever since the unfortunate first meeting of the Council of Godheads, where a dying Odin revealed to everyone that her son was a Celestial, she hadn't showed herself to the other Gods.
Scathach, who had heard about Theos's Celestial heritage from the Dagda, the ruler of Otherworld and Gaea's own son, had kept her company. Unsurprisingly, Scathach refused to believe that Theos was some sort of spy or an imposter sent by the Sky Gods.
And so, when the message from Atum came, Scathach wished her luck, and went to visit Theos on his planet, while Gaea went to the Astral plane, to join the Council.
Appearing in front of the other Gods, Gaea asks, "What is it, that you have called me here for, Ra?"
Her son, Ra, frowns at the other Gods who stay silent, out of fear and respect, and says, "My brother, Theos. I need to know why Odin Borson proclaimed him to be a Celestial."
Looking around, Gaea turns her eyes over everyone present. Heading this meeting were Ammon-Ra, Zeus, and Vishnu. Horus sat right behind Ra, Aphrodite behind Zeus, and Indra behind Vishnu.
Other Kings of their respective Pantheons were spread all over the room, without any order, and some were even laying down on mattresses.
Eochaid, or Dagda, as he's more commonly known, her son as Danu, was seated at the back, with his older brother Lud right beside him.
Once done observing, Gaea looks back to Ammon-Ra, and says, "The answer is quite simple, Atum. Theos is a Celestial."
Pandemonium erupts all around, as every God there, even her own Sons and Daughters, start yelling at her, and each other. Gaea forgives that, as most of them were ruled by their fear of Celestials. The Leaders of the Council, Ra, Zeus, and Vishnu stay silent however, with their eyes looking at the amused Gaea.
"SILENCE!" Ra yells, at the top of his voice, stopping the needless shouting. As silence resumes, he says, "Please explain, Lady Neith. I have seen him when he was a child, and felt the Divinity within him. I've felt the same connection that I have to you, between him and you. If he was a Celestial, then I would have known. How can you still say that he's a Celestial?"
Chuckling, Gaea says, "I won't tell you everything, Atum."
"You will tell us everything, Gaea! THE COUNCIL DEMANDS IT!" Zeus interrupts her, yelling the last part.
Tutting, Gaea simply says, "Please stay silent, Zeus. You need not be reminded that you're just the King of Olympus, and not of the World? Right?"
"You do not scare me, woman! I've fought and killed Titans before." Zeus proudly proclaims, slamming his fist on the small table in front of him.
Before Gaea can say anything, Ammon-Ra puts a hand between them, and says, "Stay silent, you moron. This is not a battle you can win, not even with all of us Gods behind you. And mother, please don't taunt him."
As Zeus stammers, Gaea says, "Well, I need to have some entertainment, my son. Living so long does get a bit boring, you know. Now, do you actually want to listen, or should I leave you all to make your own wrong assumptions?"
"Please continue, Lady Aditi." Vishnu says, after patting the sulking Zeus on the back.
Nodding, Gaea says, "Very well. 3 Million years ago, before you New Gods had even begun forming, a Celestial named Madonna first came to Terra, hiding her Celestial form underneath a humanoid face. For anyone that looked, she would have been just a normal mortal. Except for me, obviously, because she did step her foot on my planet. The Titans met her, and so did the only Gods of the time, Asgardians of the previous Cycle. You yourself met her a few times, Atum, albeit in many different forms. She did not harm anyone, however, and just lived amongst us. And then, some centuries later, she left."
Letting them absorb it, she continues, "A few thousand years later, once again she returned, lived, and left. And yes, she was the same Celestial. I recognized her. Again and again, she came, lived amongst whoever lived here, and then left. Eternals, Demigods, mortals, Gods, and even Aliens. She masqueraded as them all. Even after you all were born, she kept returning to Terra. All the while, I kept my distance, not wanting to offend her, or startle her into attacking us somehow. Even I was afraid of the Celestials, you know. Unlike you all, I have actually witnessed their full might."
"Then, 500,000 years ago, when she returned again, I introduced myself to her. I was curious about why she kept returning. One thing led to another, and we mated, which gave rise to our son, Theos. Alas, Madonna died more than 7000 years ago, and so, I raised Theos alone, as my Godly son, hiding the fact that he has a second parent from everyone. So, yes. Theos is my Son, and he is a Celestial." Gaea finishes, making sure to look at every God there.
Taking a few seconds to think it over, Ammon-Ra gets a bit upset, and asks, "Why did you not tell me about it, mother? He could have been a threat to all of us."
Chuckling, Gaea says, "The only way Theos will be a threat to you all, is if you try to harm me, or our planet, my Son. Just like you, Theos calls Terra Home. He was born here, raised here, and even if he has another home now, he still calls this planet a home, and had already taken steps to protect it. You can ask the Sorcerer Supreme about it, if you wish. Make of that, what you will, but remember. Theos is only a danger to you if you want him to be."
The Gods talk amongst each other for a few minutes, and the council breaks up. Gaea returns to her island, to meet up with Scathach who had returned from Donna. A few days later, she once again gets called to the Council.
As she presents herself to the Council, Atum once again leads it, and says, "We have decided, Lady Neith."
"And what have you decided, my dear son?" Gaea asks, tilting her head in curiosity.
Atum says, "While we have concluded that Theos isn't a threat to us, or our planet, his presence here can bring other Celestials, or other dangerous beings to us. With that in mind, the Council has decided to banish the Celestial known as Theos, from our planet."
"And what if a threat approaches our planet, that we cannot defeat?" Gaea asks, knowing that Theos won't like this, at all. He was being abandoned for being what he is, even if he saved their lives.
"We will handle it." Zeus says, stopping whatever intelligent answer Atum might have created.

Yeah, Thor is a total Chad even in dead, but I am curious about the reaction of the Thor of the next cycle seeing another Mjolnir.
And the gods being dicks Is expected as always, I hope that Theo's have a better control over his pantheon to prevent them from becoming total asses, now thinking about it, they said that they exile Theos but they never said anything about his pantheon, so his gods could go to Earth to keep him informed.
I cannot wait to see how Theos exile will bite them in the ass.

You did good, Thor. Just wish death would have let you finally get to rest your back after carrying these divine idiots. Also who thought it was a good idea to let the guy whose heroes practically defined tragedy onto the council?

The same as comics. I'm keeping the strength the same, since it won't have that much of an effect on the story for now. Meh, I might change my mind though.

Two chapters incoming! This is the first one!
~~~
It has been 3 years since the Final Ragnarok happened, and a lot has changed in Andalok.
Jormungandr, Vali, and Narfi Lokisons woke up a week after I returned from Donna, as New Gods of Andalok.
Jormungandr, the God of Strength. Vali, the Wolf God of Speed. Narfi, the God of Winter. After waking up, they were now My Gods, part of My Pantheon, and hence, they once again swore an oath to me, like Chhaya and Kali had done before.
To accomodate the three new Gods, we had to expand the Palace of Andalok. The original palace of the Elder Trinity was reabsorbed by the Realm of Andalok, and we created a new one from scratch.
The new Palace of Andalok held to the same principle, and was created so we don't have to recreate it every time a new God joins us.
The Cave which led to the Realm of Andalok connected to a bridge made of cobblestones, for aesthetic purposes. This Bridge then went towards the Palace, stopping only when the Palace starts, being replaced by a marble floor. Everything was enchanted, obviously. We're not savages.
The palace Hallway then led directly to the Throne Room, in the centre of the which, was the Pool of Scrying, along with the Scrying Mirror. It could be replaced by the Induk Globe with a thought, and all of us Gods had the authority to do that. But, obviously, us Elder Trinity have a higher authority.
Then, after that, came our thrones. In the middle was my own Throne, almost joined on two sides by the Thrones of Chhaya and Kali. I made sure to make the arm rest as big as possible, because no way I'm surrendering my arm rest to anyone.
On Kali's side, was the empty Throne reserved for Manasi, followed by the Throne of Jormungandr, the God of Strength. On Chhaya's side, were the Thrones of Vali and Narfi, in that order.
Behind our Thrones, led 7 doors to each of our Wings within the Palace. I won't mention the Magical protections I put everywhere, because that is obvious. I won't allow anyone that tries to threaten my Realm into Andalok itself, let alone our rooms.
The rooms were interconnected by hallways, but no one can enter another's room without permission, or with the approval of the majority of the Trinity. It even applies to me, as even Kings aren't above the laws I'm setting up.
Once the three New Gods had settled in, I had left them in the hands of Chhaya and Kali, and returned to Donna, this time bringing Madonna's ship, which included Sonny, and my store of Dargonite. Along with that, I had to take apart the Forge, and recreate it on Donna.
After that, came the time to Metal working. For these last 3 years, I've been practicing making weapons out of Dargonite, using the books given to me by the Dwarves, however involuntarily they may be. In just three years, I've already gotten better at actual weapons making. A lot better.
My Dargonite weapons, which aren't perfect yet, can easily keep up with my Adamantine Axes, for at least a few hours now. As for the Uru weapons that I had managed to make, they broke up when hit by my Dargonite weapons. It wasn't anything against Uru, but my skills just weren't up to par yet.
I also understood a few things about Dargonite. Like Adamantine, Dargonite was ridiculously sharp. Like, it could actually scratch the Celestial Armour, without any help from any outside factor like Cosmic Energy, or my blood.
It was also as durable as Adamantine, which was already nigh unbreakable. I haven't begun enchanting them yet, but I can guarantee, that my weapons will be amongst the most durable weapons in the Universe.
Like Uru, Dargonite was also a Magic Absorbing monster. The more magic I feed to the weapons, both while creating them, and while using them, the stronger they become. So they won't just make any mortal into a God, but they will make any God close to invincible.
Of course, it all depends on the enemy too, so no guarantees there.
Then, wounds by Dargonite also resisted all manners of Magical Healing. Be it intrinsic, or spells, the only way to heal from a Dargonite wound was to let it heal naturally after stitching it up, or be a Celestial. Not even the Cosmic Energy of the Eternals worked, as I found out by experimenting on my lovely fellow Gods.
One surprising addition to the otherwise expected abilities, was the ability of Dargonite to negate Gravitational forces. Anyone that has Dargonite, can float if they will it, without any efforts on their part, and direct the flight path.
Dargonite literally used the magic from your surroundings to do that. It sort of reminded me of the Gravitonium, but it wasn't the same. Similar, yes, not same.
But, it wasn't perfect. Cosmic Energy still harmed the unenchanted weapons. My disintegration beam also completely erased a dagger out of existence, while Kali's Cosmic blade managed to actually scratch Dargonite.
Chhaya's Cosmic Blasts did some damage, but it wasn't visible outside. The effects happened inside the weapon, causing them to slowly become brittle.
Thank Queen, I had the bright idea to transmutate all the Uru from my Throneworld to Dargonite. Why did I do that? I found out that as long as I have Cosmic Energy, the amount of metal I have in my Throneworld keeps getting refilled.
So, no matter how much Uru I had taken out, there was still the same amount of Uru in my Throneworld. Which means, after taking equal amount of transmutated Adamantine and Vibranium, and a shit ton of Dragon Bones, my Uru Throne was now made up of Dargonite, giving me an infinite supply of Dargonite.
But, I was also wasting a lot of my infinite precious metal on my failures and tests.
Comparatively, Mjolnir could handle everything other than my Disintegration Beam, and not even get a scratch. I haven't tried using it on Mjolnir, I'm not stupid, but I remember seeing a Comic book page where the Odinsword was disintegrated by some Celestial, and even Mjolnir was destroyed more than a few times. So, yeah. My weapons still have a long way to go, even with the Superior metal.
Speaking of Mjolnir, it was kept on Donna itself, in my house, and I did not even bring it to Andalok even once. I did show the hammer to both Chhaya and Kali, who remembered Asgard thanks to not being a part of Earth. Even the Lokisons remember now, as they weren't Earth's Gods now.
I did not bother hiding it, as no one else can actually pick it up, and even if someone does pick it up, I can just summon it back towards me. Mjolnir always came when I called, which I think has Thor's hand all over it.
Mjolnir was mine now, as I observed when even Kali, Chhaya and Manasi found it impossible to lift it. I could allow them to, on Donna, since I am the supreme power here, but where's the fun in that?
I used it a lot of times, both as weapons practice, and weapons making practice. Like my axes, the hammer could conduct my Divine energies, allowing me to channel my Elements through it. All of them. And Mjolnir was leagues above my Axes in terms of Conductivity.
Consider this. If I use one hypothetical unit of my Magical power through both my axes, as well as Mjolnir, and use it to calculate the voltage I manage to create, Mjolnir's voltage is 7 times higher than that of my axes. Sonny and I played around extensively, so I can understand what kind of weapon I want to make.
"Scroll back up, Sonny." I say, pausing in grinding the sword in my hand, looking at the holographic screen in front of me.
Sonny does as asked, scrolling a few lines up, to show me the updates on the Celestial Eggs which I mistakenly skipped. Obviously, I was keeping an eye on them both.
The one in Donna's red sun was close to 'hatching' for a lack of better terms, while the one on Earth's sun was still over 50,000 years away. And by close, I mean a few centuries at the least.
As for Manasi, she had just turned 17 a few months ago, and so, she was preparing for her eventual ascension to Godhood.
Where I was happy on my planet, Induk, the Earthly Gods had already begun facing new troubles. Small raids had already happened on the Demigods, carried out by the Demons of different outer realms.
Mephisto, Satannish, Blackheart, and even Dormammu. Everyone had sent their minions to attack the mortals of Earth, to test defences. And I have to say, I'm proud of my Camp Half-blood to have repelled every single one of these raids.
While in the beginning, the wards were enough to keep the small time demons out, the demons learned and managed to send a more powerful Demon within Camp Half-blood itself. But, the Demigods there were ready, having gotten enough warning, and killed the Demon by themselves.
I'm bloody proud of them, you know. The Divine Guardians of the Camp didn't even have to lift a finger.
But, this was just the beginning. The Shields around Earth were refusing to be fixed, and things will keep getting worse. Soon, within a few thousand years, the shields will just.. snap, allowing anyone that manages to breach the Interdimensional Barriers, safe entry to Earth.
Earth will be a warzone between the Gods and the Demons. And I won't be there to stop it. No matter how hard they beg, I won't go there.
Don't make a mistake, I love Earth and would never have allowed any harm to come to it. But, I also know that Agamotto will be able to repair the Shields after they completely snap. Eventually. Meaning Earth will have a chance at revival.
Can't say the same about the Gods that will die in the war. And they'll deserve it.
I saved Earth, not once, but thrice. Once from Satannish, then the Gods Above Gods, and then Mangog. And what did they do? Banish me because I might bring threats to Earth.
I bloody took the Celestial Egg out of the Earth's core, and they think I'll bring harm to Earth? Fucking idiots, the lot of them.
I have already spoken with Mother, and even she agreed with my decision to not help them in this inevitable war. Mother has already lived through dozens of wars against the Demons in her very long life.
She said, "Demons will always find ways to get in, Theos. War is inevitable, and will always happen when one side grows too strong. But do you know what else happens? What else is inevitable? Me. Terra will heal as it always has. My mortals will continue to live on, I'll make sure of that. In the end, the War will be inconsequential for me."
And I couldn't help but agree with her. She's almost 4 Billion years old, what do I know? But, she did assure me that she will keep the Camp safe, so there's that.
Banishing the update on the Celestial Eggs, I continue grinding. This was my latest attempt at creating a sword like Hofund, which will summon a wormhole for anyone to travel through.
More than that, though, this is the first attempt at it, after I had finished memorising everything in the Dwarven Libraries.
I had already Shaped it to the best of my abilities, and had then began grinding while feeding it my magic in the form of my Teleportation spells. Which means, I literally cast Teleportation spells at the sword while I was grinding it. The Dargonite was obviously eating it all up, until it hopefully adapts to the spell.
Few minutes later, I lift it up, and inspect it closely. The blade was the usual Dargonite colour, a golden hued Gray, while the handle was golden. The blade itself was 5 foot long, which made it a 6 foot long with the handle, making it a great sword fit for someone well over the height of 6 feet.
The sword weighed around 5 tonnes, but I was going to Enchant to make it lighter later. For now, it was nondescript, but I could add changes later if this one is a success.
Taking a step back, I ask, "Sonny? Scanners ready?"
Sonny's holographic face, which was still similar to Eson the Searcher, appears beside me, and says, "Affirmative, Sir. WS #217, commence with the test at will."
Taking a deep breath, I get into a position I've seen Heimdall stand in for the duration of the war, with my feet shoulder length apart, and the sword held in front of me, tip down. The 6 feet long sword stands at my shoulder length, allowing me to hold the handle quite comfortably.
With a small amount of force, I push the sword into the ground underneath me, and focus on the house of the Lokisons, which was now empty.
This was the 217th attempt at making a Wormhole Sword. All 216 attempts had ended with the sword disintegrating, breaking, or just standing there, uselessly, whenever I try to open a wormhole. But not this one.
With a soft whoosh sound, a spinning wormhole opens in front of me, showing me the house I was expecting to see. I smile widely, finally getting a successful sword, and take a small step towards the Wormhole to examine it.
Unfortunately, the wormhole snaps close, sending displaced air all around it.
Still smiling, I say, "Play it back. This was our first success, Sonny!"
Sonny's ever chipper voice says, "Indeed, sir. And it only took you 217 attempts to do so, even with all this help."
Ignoring his snark, I look at the video feed of the last minute, and then at the different energy readings Sonny managed to scan.
"Space Time distortion was too high, which is the reason the portal snapped shut. Otherwise it was alright. Thankfully, it doesn't pass through any other Dimension, and just connects two points in Space-time. Stability is the issue, however. Hmm.. I know.." I speak to myself, slowing the video down.
Pausing at the exact moment he portal snapped shut, I turn to Sonny, and say, "Sonny, my boy. The next attempt will be the final product."
"As you say, sir. Shall I prep the Fire chamber?" Sonny asks, already carrying out the task.
The fire chamber was the room in which impossible temperatures could be reached, without any harm to anything outside. The room was completely isolated from the outer space, and also completely insulated. No amount of heat was getting out of that room.
Picking the WS#217, I say, "Yup, prep the Fire Chamber, Sonny. We're melting the sword back into sludge."
Even if I don't need to use it right now, thank Queen for an infinite supply of Dargonite.

A/N: This was a summary of what all happened in these years. Next chapter will introduce Manasi as a Goddess, along with the weapons.
There will be a few chapters on the consequences of the Godbomb. I still have to write those Celestial eggs in somehow. Be warned that they won't be amongst the Main Characters.
I apologize for being so slow with the plot, but I dug myself too deep by having him live so long ago. But since I'm stubborn as fuck, I'll keep to it.
Thank you for your support! Inform me if I've forgotten to update on something, WITHIN THIS STORY, and I'll do so.
Tata!
Two chapters incoming! This is the first one!
~~~
It has been 3 years since the Final Ragnarok happened, and a lot has changed in Andalok.
Jormungandr, Vali, and Narfi Lokisons woke up a week after I returned from Donna, as New Gods of Andalok.
Jormungandr, the God of Strength. Vali, the Wolf God of Speed. Narfi, the God of Winter. After waking up, they were now My Gods, part of My Pantheon, and hence, they once again swore an oath to me, like Chhaya and Kali had done before.
To accomodate the three new Gods, we had to expand the Palace of Andalok. The original palace of the Elder Trinity was reabsorbed by the Realm of Andalok, and we created a new one from scratch.
The new Palace of Andalok held to the same principle, and was created so we don't have to recreate it every time a new God joins us.
The Cave which led to the Realm of Andalok connected to a bridge made of cobblestones, for aesthetic purposes. This Bridge then went towards the Palace, stopping only when the Palace starts, being replaced by a marble floor. Everything was enchanted, obviously. We're not savages.
The palace Hallway then led directly to the Throne Room, in the centre of the which, was the Pool of Scrying, along with the Scrying Mirror. It could be replaced by the Induk Globe with a thought, and all of us Gods had the authority to do that. But, obviously, us Elder Trinity have a higher authority.
Then, after that, came our thrones. In the middle was my own Throne, almost joined on two sides by the Thrones of Chhaya and Kali. I made sure to make the arm rest as big as possible, because no way I'm surrendering my arm rest to anyone.
On Kali's side, was the empty Throne reserved for Manasi, followed by the Throne of Jormungandr, the God of Strength. On Chhaya's side, were the Thrones of Vali and Narfi, in that order.
Behind our Thrones, led 7 doors to each of our Wings within the Palace. I won't mention the Magical protections I put everywhere, because that is obvious. I won't allow anyone that tries to threaten my Realm into Andalok itself, let alone our rooms.
The rooms were interconnected by hallways, but no one can enter another's room without permission, or with the approval of the majority of the Trinity. It even applies to me, as even Kings aren't above the laws I'm setting up.
Once the three New Gods had settled in, I had left them in the hands of Chhaya and Kali, and returned to Donna, this time bringing Madonna's ship, which included Sonny, and my store of Dargonite. Along with that, I had to take apart the Forge, and recreate it on Donna.
After that, came the time to Metal working. For these last 3 years, I've been practicing making weapons out of Dargonite, using the books given to me by the Dwarves, however involuntarily they may be. In just three years, I've already gotten better at actual weapons making. A lot better.
My Dargonite weapons, which aren't perfect yet, can easily keep up with my Adamantine Axes, for at least a few hours now. As for the Uru weapons that I had managed to make, they broke up when hit by my Dargonite weapons. It wasn't anything against Uru, but my skills just weren't up to par yet.
I also understood a few things about Dargonite. Like Adamantine, Dargonite was ridiculously sharp. Like, it could actually scratch the Celestial Armour, without any help from any outside factor like Cosmic Energy, or my blood.
It was also as durable as Adamantine, which was already nigh unbreakable. I haven't begun enchanting them yet, but I can guarantee, that my weapons will be amongst the most durable weapons in the Universe.
Like Uru, Dargonite was also a Magic Absorbing monster. The more magic I feed to the weapons, both while creating them, and while using them, the stronger they become. So they won't just make any mortal into a God, but they will make any God close to invincible.
Of course, it all depends on the enemy too, so no guarantees there.
Then, wounds by Dargonite also resisted all manners of Magical Healing. Be it intrinsic, or spells, the only way to heal from a Dargonite wound was to let it heal naturally after stitching it up, or be a Celestial. Not even the Cosmic Energy of the Eternals worked, as I found out by experimenting on my lovely fellow Gods.
One surprising addition to the otherwise expected abilities, was the ability of Dargonite to negate Gravitational forces. Anyone that has Dargonite, can float if they will it, without any efforts on their part, and direct the flight path.
Dargonite literally used the magic from your surroundings to do that. It sort of reminded me of the Gravitonium, but it wasn't the same. Similar, yes, not same.
But, it wasn't perfect. Cosmic Energy still harmed the unenchanted weapons. My disintegration beam also completely erased a dagger out of existence, while Kali's Cosmic blade managed to actually scratch Dargonite.
Chhaya's Cosmic Blasts did some damage, but it wasn't visible outside. The effects happened inside the weapon, causing them to slowly become brittle.
Thank Queen, I had the bright idea to transmutate all the Uru from my Throneworld to Dargonite. Why did I do that? I found out that as long as I have Cosmic Energy, the amount of metal I have in my Throneworld keeps getting refilled.
So, no matter how much Uru I had taken out, there was still the same amount of Uru in my Throneworld. Which means, after taking equal amount of transmutated Adamantine and Vibranium, and a shit ton of Dragon Bones, my Uru Throne was now made up of Dargonite, giving me an infinite supply of Dargonite.
But, I was also wasting a lot of my infinite precious metal on my failures and tests.
Comparatively, Mjolnir could handle everything other than my Disintegration Beam, and not even get a scratch. I haven't tried using it on Mjolnir, I'm not stupid, but I remember seeing a Comic book page where the Odinsword was disintegrated by some Celestial, and even Mjolnir was destroyed more than a few times. So, yeah. My weapons still have a long way to go, even with the Superior metal.
Speaking of Mjolnir, it was kept on Donna itself, in my house, and I did not even bring it to Andalok even once. I did show the hammer to both Chhaya and Kali, who remembered Asgard thanks to not being a part of Earth. Even the Lokisons remember now, as they weren't Earth's Gods now.
I did not bother hiding it, as no one else can actually pick it up, and even if someone does pick it up, I can just summon it back towards me. Mjolnir always came when I called, which I think has Thor's hand all over it.
Mjolnir was mine now, as I observed when even Kali, Chhaya and Manasi found it impossible to lift it. I could allow them to, on Donna, since I am the supreme power here, but where's the fun in that?
I used it a lot of times, both as weapons practice, and weapons making practice. Like my axes, the hammer could conduct my Divine energies, allowing me to channel my Elements through it. All of them. And Mjolnir was leagues above my Axes in terms of Conductivity.
Consider this. If I use one hypothetical unit of my Magical power through both my axes, as well as Mjolnir, and use it to calculate the voltage I manage to create, Mjolnir's voltage is 7 times higher than that of my axes. Sonny and I played around extensively, so I can understand what kind of weapon I want to make.
"Scroll back up, Sonny." I say, pausing in grinding the sword in my hand, looking at the holographic screen in front of me.
Sonny does as asked, scrolling a few lines up, to show me the updates on the Celestial Eggs which I mistakenly skipped. Obviously, I was keeping an eye on them both.
The one in Donna's red sun was close to 'hatching' for a lack of better terms, while the one on Earth's sun was still over 50,000 years away. And by close, I mean a few centuries at the least.
As for Manasi, she had just turned 17 a few months ago, and so, she was preparing for her eventual ascension to Godhood.

And I couldn't help but agree with her. She's almost 4 Billion years old, what do I know? But, she did assure me that she will keep the Camp safe, so there's that.
Banishing the update on the Celestial Eggs, I continue grinding. This was my latest attempt at creating a sword like Hofund, which will summon a wormhole for anyone to travel through.
More than that, though, this is the first attempt at it, after I had finished memorising everything in the Dwarven Libraries.

A/N: Pat-reon: HelloDarkness07
Second Chapter of the day!
~~~
The Throne room of Andalok was occupied by all 6 Gods of Induk. Seated on their thrones were Jormungandr (God of Strength), Kali(Goddess of the Moon), Chhaya(Goddess of the Sun), Vali(Wolf God of Speed), Narfi(God of Winter), and I, Theos(God of Nature, and the Skyfather).
Our Thrones, which were arranged in a curved shape, were facing towards the Scrying tools. However, in place of the Scrying tools, was a person, a mortal.
Manasi, the Demigod Daughter of Kali, was kneeling in front of us, her head bowed low. But, contrary to what this position might say, she was happy.
Finally 18, Manasi was going to be allowed to ascend to Godhood.
Slamming my once more Magically created staff on the floor once, I say, "Demigod Manasi. For 18 years you have lived the life of a mortal. To ascend to Godhood, you were required to pass a test. And you did so spectacularly. You fought and killed demons stronger than you, and you showed the right mentality during the fight."
Manasi's test was something completely in the hands of Kali, as she was the Mother. Our only expectations, were that Kali shouldn't go easy on her daughter, nor should she help her in any way.
Kali sent Manasi to Terra. When Manasi dropped out of the portal, with a sword and a dagger on her waist, a bow on her shoulder, and a quiver full of arrows on her back, she was unconscious, and had just begun waking up. All of the tools were made from Vibranium, Divine one so she can at least have a chance to survive the test, even if she fails.
Her test, was defending the village she appeared outside of, from a horde of Demons. Yeah, the situation did not improve a single bit this last year, for Earth that is. Demons were still invading Earth, slowly. They were accumulating mortal souls, from the looks of it.
But, the test was actually a test, because we did not tell her about it. She was asleep actually, when Kali teleported her to the village, with her weapons already equipped. Kali took care of most of it, and I was only responsible with selecting a place for her test.
I knew that the Village was going to be attacked because I saw the signs. Still no visions for me, I'm afraid.
Manasi fought bravely, and for three days, she fought and killed the Demons. Her Eternal heritage allowed her to fight that long without tiring too much, but the psychological effects weren't unnoticeable.
After 3 days, and only after the last demon of the group of 1300 died, Manasi collapsed on the ground, unconscious. Alone, it wasn't enough to prove that she was worthy of becoming a God. What she did during this fight, was.
The village she was defending had seen her fight for them, and helped her. Some were Demigods, so they managed to hold their own. Some were fighters, so they too managed some. However, most of the villagers were regular mortals, having no fighting knowledge at all.
Even they tried to help her, but failed. Seeing some of them about to die by a stronger Demon, Manasi had jumped in between the Demon and the mortal, taking a stab wound in her shoulder.
Her willingness to sacrifice herself was what allowed us to decide to ascend her. She did not fight for herself, or for the sake of her Godhood. She fought to defend the village, and she led the villagers to do the same.
Done reminiscing, I continue, "You fought bravely, and selflessly. And you did it out of pure instinct. Your Weapons may be lost, but your fighting spirit is still here, just as strong. Rise, Manasi, Demigoddess Daughter of Kali. From now onwards, you shall be known as Manasi, Goddess of Strategy."
Kali has a proud smile on her face, and I even see smiles on our new Gods. They're still new, despite being here for 4 years. Their probationary period isn't over yet.
Turning Manasi into a Goddess wasn't as time consuming as Inducting the Lokisons in Andalok was. She was actually a part of us, but just a Demigoddess.
When Manasi stands, she's no longer the Demigoddess I knew her as. She's now Manasi, the Goddess of Strategy. And no, I did not just proclaim her as that. She was 100% the Goddess of Strategy, her Magic proclaimed her as that. I was just the one to recognise that.
Standing gracefully, Manasi suddenly squeals excitedly, and jumps towards her mother, both of them crying and laughing. Smiling at them, I say, "You have my congratulations, Manasi. The first New Goddess of Andalok."
Kali pulls Manasi to her throne, to the right of her own, and says, "Congratulations, daughter."
Once everyone has finished congratulating her, and welcoming her to Godhood, I clear my throat, and say, "I'm afraid this isn't all."
Everyone immediately becomes silent, but I smile widely. I say, "Allow me to be the one to say, your Divine Weapons are ready."
Narfi asks, "Us too?" confused because I did actually include them, when I said 'your.'
Nodding, I look at them even more confused, and ask, "Why wouldn't I? You three might be on probation, but you're still a part of Andalok. You're Gods of Andalok. And I, being the God of Nature and Smithing, was truly pleased to have more weapons to make."
It wasn't actually a problem to include them amongst my... customers, once I'd actually mastered making Dargonite weapons. I found it to be quite a bit of fun, actually, and I embraced the challenge of finding a perfect weapon for everyone.
Holding my hand, Chhaya says, "For these last four years, you three haven't given us any troubles. Sure, you like to keep to yourselves, and are still just observing the mortals, that was expected. We are not so cruel, as to intentionally isolate you three for being immigrants."
Manasi and Kali nod, expressing their acceptance with our statements, so I banish the Energy staff, stand up to walk in the middle, and say, "Well, let's begin, shall we? The newest Gods first, Manasi, step forward."
Manasi does so, giddily giggling, and stops in front of me. Smiling down at her, I summon her weapons to my hands, from my Pocket Dimension, and hand them to her.
Her weapons were 3, in all. The first, and her primary weapon, was a bow, made of Dargonite, along with a quiver full of Dargonite tipped arrows. Making a bow out of a durable metal wasn't easy.
Literally, metal bows fail almost all the time. But, I enchanted it to behave like a bow made from bone, while also retaining the properties of Dargonite. So, while being flexible, the bow is also as durable as any Dargonite weapon. The bow string, meanwhile, was made from Kali's black hair, wound together with my own hair, and a single thread of Dargonite. No matter what happens, the string won't break easily. Dwarven enchantments were just that strong.
As she examines it, wide eyed, I say, "The bow is the one true weapon, that will always work for you. The better you are at archery, the stronger the attacks will be. You can use the Dargonite arrows, which are Enchanted to return to the Quiver after it hits any target, or you can create arrows from Magical energies, or your Cosmic Energy."
She can also use the bow as a blunt Weapon, and it will hurt.. a lot. The arrows meanwhile will cut through almost anything, even my own skin, if need be.
"Amazing!" Manasi whispers, and then puts the Quiver on her back, and the bow on her shoulder. As she does that, the bow shrinks, turning into a small two inch wide badge on her shoulder. Whenever she touches the badge, the bow will appear in her hand, in the right position.
Handing her the dagger and its scabbard next, I say, "This dagger is your back up. It's highly unlikely that anything will happen to your bow, but if you're unable to use it, this dagger will help you. It will always return to this holster, whenever you want it to."
The next to come forward, is Vali. For him, I also made two items. The first, was a set of shoes. Made from Dragon leather, and woven together with very thin strings of Dargonite, the shoes will grant him speeds as high as that of Light, and even higher if he trains enough.
Basically, I turned Vali into Flash. Or an actual God of Speed. While when he woke up as the Speed God of Andalok, he had gotten faster, his max speed was still just a measly 0.001 times the speed of light. The shoes multiplied it by almost a Thousand immediately.
His weapon, meanwhile, were twin daggers. Like the ones Loki used, these Daggers were easily hidden. They were also Enchanted to return to Vali whenever he willed them to come.
For Narfi, I created a staff. Cylindrical in shape, the Staff was fully black in colour. It was made of Dargonite, just like all of the others. But somehow, while making it into a Staff fit for a Winter God, the Dargonite switched colours from Golden-gray to Black.
The Staff could channel Narfi's Winter powers, allowing him to freeze everything with the touch of the staff. It was also Enchanted to be able to summon a Winter storm and reach temperatures as low as 10 Kelvin. Truly, fit for a Winter God. It can also form a highly durable icy point at the top, if he wishes, turning it into a Spear.
Finally, for Jormungandr, I created something which I know he will love. A Warhammer. The Warhammer has a handle Length of 6 feet, and a hammerhead as big as his own head. The two sided Hammer head was a little bigger than Mjolnir's, and a more sharp square shape, but it was just as effective in breaking things.
Although it cannot summon Lightning or storms, it can create Earthquakes if he hits it on the ground hard enough.
Then, for Kali, I created twin swords, four feet in length each. They were curved, like the Elven swords from the Tolkien movies, and came in Dragonhide scabbards, like every other sword I made.
They can also be summoned to her, easily, and to her Scabbards, if one knows how. Doesn't matter where they are, or in what state. They can also channel her Cosmic Energy, meaning she can still use her Cosmic Sword through these Dargonite swords. Along with that, if Kali ever crosses them in front of her, a magical shield forms all around her body, that can stop anything physical from harming her. Even energy attacks will have to be stronger than her own Energy to penetrate the shield, which, while not impossible, is damn hard.
For Chhaya, my lover, I created a sword and shield. The sword was 4.5 feet long, and was a straight sword. The shield was a circular shield, with a diameter of 3 feet.
The sword is the best sword out of all the swords I've made. Forged with the help of Mjolnir, this Dargonite sword is imbued with the blue flames from my Throneworld Dimension. Just like how Narfi's staff turned black, Chhaya's sword turned Golden colour while forging.
The imbued flames allow Chhaya's sword to become as Hot as she can make them, making them even more dangerous. Chhaya can also cover them in flames if she wants to just burn something, and not melt. She can also shoot flames through the Sword Tip, but that was a given after all this.
The shield, which was also made by Mjolnir, meanwhile, can stop even my Celestial Energy blasts. I imbued it with the Power Stone's energy while making this shield, so that even Infinity stones, or Cosmic Energy has issues trying to harm it. I haven't tried my Disintegration Beam, but it definitely won't be disintegrated after just one attack.
Basically, every tool or Weapon I made for my Gods was made to enhance, or help their Divinity. Vali's shoes will improve with him, and definitely make him the fastest being alive some day. Narfi's staff can summon Winter itself. Jormungandr's Warhammer helps direct his superior strength.
Kali's swords will make her two times stronger during the night, and also allow her to channel her Cosmic Energy through them. And Chhaya's Weapons allow her to completely dominate the Sun, if she wishes.
As for Manasi, her domain was Strategy, and I had no idea she would be the Goddess of Strategy when I made the Weapons for her, so they'll help her in whatever way she wishes them too.
Best of all, each and every thing I gave my new Gods allowed them the capability of flight. Vali's shoes even allowed him to run on air, and in vacuum as easily as on Earth. That was one property of Dargonite that I personally didn't need, but was as useful as ever.
Along with that, Chhaya and Kali's Weapons had one more property to them that I didn't add to the other Weapons. Portal creation. Like Hofund, their swords could summon invisible portals to any place they've visited, or can visualize. Although, for now that's only within the Universe, that can be improved with time.
"What about you?" Chhaya asks, settling down on her Throne, caressing the sword, her shield having kept on her lap.
Smirking, I say, "I did not forget myself, Chhaya. I was just keeping the best God for the last."
Kali rolls her eyes, and says, "Such humility."
I resist the urge to say 'much wow' and summon my own Weapons. Ànemos, and Astrapi. My faithful axes, now remade out of Dargonite.
Looking at them with sad eyes, I say, "I originally meant to just use my loving axes after remaking them with Dargonite. For so long they have helped me get stronger, that I didn't want to part with them."
Sighing, I keep them on a table I conjure, and say, "Alas, I have to keep them aside now. Ànemos and Astrapi made me into the God King I am today, however I seem to have evolved past them. So, I had to create a Weapon fit for a King."
Don't get me wrong, Ànemos and Astrapi were stronger now, better at channelling magic. Heck, they could challenge Mjolnir in conductivity of Divine Energy, and come out on top. But.. they weren't a King's weapon. I just.. didn't feel as if they were bringing out the best in me. I still love them though, and will make sure they get worthy users.
So, I summon my new weapon. A King's Weapon. A spear.
Completely bronze in colour, the Dargonite Spear had a handle 5 feet high. At the top, there was a primary blade that further extended a foot higher, along with two secondary blades that were 5 inches long each. So, it was a trident, but it wasn't a trident.
This Spear was the strongest Weapon here, hands down. Even stronger than Mjolnir by a large margin.
Along with the usual package of durability, channelling Divinity, summoning and all that, the Spear also allowed me absolute control over the magic of Induk, and Andalok. Unlike the other tools, this one was also forged on Induk itself, which is what made that possible.
The spear can shoot highly dense beams of Magic, as well as Cosmic Energy, amplifying the force behind it. I can also use my elements like I could through my axes. I can throw it towards a target, and it will try and hit it any way it can, even by following behind them if they dodge.
Like Chhaya's and Kali's swords, my Spear allowed me to create Invisible portals to anywhere. And no matter where, which Dimension I am, the spear will always find me. But, the best part was its adaptability to my Celestial form.
Whenever I turn into my Celestial form, the Spear will change its own form to match my Celestial colours, and become thicker. So, the usually 3 inch wide Spear becomes as wide as 6-7 inches in diameter. Thankfully, its head changes too, making it less recognisable.
Along with that, the spear will also grow or shrink with me, no matter my size. And the Power Stone, that now permanently rests in my Celestial Armour immediately shifts to the Spear if I need it be used like that.
Best of all, no one else can use the Spear, other than me. Even when I abdicate the Throne of Andalok, the Spear will stay with me. Not even my children will be able to use this Spear without my permission, and I won't hand this spear down like the Throne. It won't harm them, but it just won't work for them.
This spear is Mine!
Explaining a few things about the Spear, I say, "Well, now I look like a Skyfather. What do you think, Jormungandr? Will Odin be jealous of my Spear?"
Jormungandr just snorts, and says, "He would have definitely tried stealing it from you, for the sake of Asgard of course."
I too laugh now, knowing that yes, Odin would have definitely tried it. He would have failed, but he would have definitely tried.
Manasi asks, "What about your axes, then?"
Smiling, I wink at Chhaya, and say, "Well, when my children eventually get here, they will have to pick up my mantle somehow. Ànemos and Astrapi will decide that."

Second Chapter of the day!
~~~
The Throne room of Andalok was occupied by all 6 Gods of Induk. Seated on their thrones were Jormungandr (God of Strength), Kali(Goddess of the Moon), Chhaya(Goddess of the Sun), Vali(Wolf God of Speed), Narfi(God of Winter), and I, Theos(God of Nature, and the Skyfather).
Our Thrones, which were arranged in a curved shape, were facing towards the Scrying tools. However, in place of the Scrying tools, was a person, a mortal.
Manasi, the Demigod Daughter of Kali, was kneeling in front of us, her head bowed low. But, contrary to what this position might say, she was happy.
Finally 18, Manasi was going to be allowed to ascend to Godhood.
Slamming my once more Magically created staff on the floor once, I say, "Demigod Manasi. For 18 years you have lived the life of a mortal. To ascend to Godhood, you were required to pass a test. And you did so spectacularly. You fought and killed demons stronger than you, and you showed the right mentality during the fight."
Manasi's test was something completely in the hands of Kali, as she was the Mother. Our only expectations, were that Kali shouldn't go easy on her daughter, nor should she help her in any way.
Kali sent Manasi to Terra. When Manasi dropped out of the portal, with a sword and a dagger on her waist, a bow on her shoulder, and a quiver full of arrows on her back, she was unconscious, and had just begun waking up. All of the tools were made from Vibranium, Divine one so she can at least have a chance to survive the test, even if she fails.
Her test, was defending the village she appeared outside of, from a horde of Demons. Yeah, the situation did not improve a single bit this last year, for Earth that is. Demons were still invading Earth, slowly. They were accumulating mortal souls, from the looks of it.
But, the test was actually a test, because we did not tell her about it. She was asleep actually, when Kali teleported her to the village, with her weapons already equipped. Kali took care of most of it, and I was only responsible with selecting a place for her test.
I knew that the Village was going to be attacked because I saw the signs. Still no visions for me, I'm afraid.
Manasi fought bravely, and for three days, she fought and killed the Demons. Her Eternal heritage allowed her to fight that long without tiring too much, but the psychological effects weren't unnoticeable.
After 3 days, and only after the last demon of the group of 1300 died, Manasi collapsed on the ground, unconscious. Alone, it wasn't enough to prove that she was worthy of becoming a God. What she did during this fight, was.
The village she was defending had seen her fight for them, and helped her. Some were Demigods, so they managed to hold their own. Some were fighters, so they too managed some. However, most of the villagers were regular mortals, having no fighting knowledge at all.
Even they tried to help her, but failed. Seeing some of them about to die by a stronger Demon, Manasi had jumped in between the Demon and the mortal, taking a stab wound in her shoulder.
Her willingness to sacrifice herself was what allowed us to decide to ascend her. She did not fight for herself, or for the sake of her Godhood. She fought to defend the village, and she led the villagers to do the same.
Done reminiscing, I continue, "You fought bravely, and selflessly. And you did it out of pure instinct. Your Weapons may be lost, but your fighting spirit is still here, just as strong. Rise, Manasi, Demigoddess Daughter of Kali. From now onwards, you shall be known as Manasi, Goddess of Strategy."
Kali has a proud smile on her face, and I even see smiles on our new Gods. They're still new, despite being here for 4 years. Their probationary period isn't over yet.
Turning Manasi into a Goddess wasn't as time consuming as Inducting the Lokisons in Andalok was. She was actually a part of us, but just a Demigoddess.
When Manasi stands, she's no longer the Demigoddess I knew her as. She's now Manasi, the Goddess of Strategy. And no, I did not just proclaim her as that. She was 100% the Goddess of Strategy, her Magic proclaimed her as that. I was just the one to recognise that.
Standing gracefully, Manasi suddenly squeals excitedly, and jumps towards her mother, both of them crying and laughing. Smiling at them, I say, "You have my congratulations, Manasi. The first New Goddess of Andalok."
Kali pulls Manasi to her throne, to the right of her own, and says, "Congratulations, daughter."
Once everyone has finished congratulating her, and welcoming her to Godhood, I clear my throat, and say, "I'm afraid this isn't all."
Everyone immediately becomes silent, but I smile widely. I say, "Allow me to be the one to say, your Divine Weapons are ready."
Narfi asks, "Us too?" confused because I did actually include them, when I said 'your.'
Nodding, I look at them even more confused, and ask, "Why wouldn't I? You three might be on probation, but you're still a part of Andalok. You're Gods of Andalok. And I, being the God of Nature and Smithing, was truly pleased to have more weapons to make."
It wasn't actually a problem to include them amongst my... customers, once I'd actually mastered making Dargonite weapons. I found it to be quite a bit of fun, actually, and I embraced the challenge of finding a perfect weapon for everyone.
Holding my hand, Chhaya says, "For these last four years, you three haven't given us any troubles. Sure, you like to keep to yourselves, and are still just observing the mortals, that was expected. We are not so cruel, as to intentionally isolate you three for being immigrants."
Manasi and Kali nod, expressing their acceptance with our statements, so I banish the Energy staff, stand up to walk in the middle, and say, "Well, let's begin, shall we? The newest Gods first, Manasi, step forward."
Manasi does so, giddily giggling, and stops in front of me. Smiling down at her, I summon her weapons to my hands, from my Pocket Dimension, and hand them to her.
Her weapons were 3, in all. The first, and her primary weapon, was a bow, made of Dargonite, along with a quiver full of Dargonite tipped arrows. Making a bow out of a durable metal wasn't easy.
Literally, metal bows fail almost all the time. But, I enchanted it to behave like a bow made from bone, while also retaining the properties of Dargonite. So, while being flexible, the bow is also as durable as any Dargonite weapon. The bow string, meanwhile, was made from Kali's black hair, wound together with my own hair, and a single thread of Dargonite. No matter what happens, the string won't break easily. Dwarven enchantments were just that strong.
As she examines it, wide eyed, I say, "The bow is the one true weapon, that will always work for you. The better you are at archery, the stronger the attacks will be. You can use the Dargonite arrows, which are Enchanted to return to the Quiver after it hits any target, or you can create arrows from Magical energies, or your Cosmic Energy."
She can also use the bow as a blunt Weapon, and it will hurt.. a lot. The arrows meanwhile will cut through almost anything, even my own skin, if need be.
"Amazing!" Manasi whispers, and then puts the Quiver on her back, and the bow on her shoulder. As she does that, the bow shrinks, turning into a small two inch wide badge on her shoulder. Whenever she touches the badge, the bow will appear in her hand, in the right position.
Handing her the dagger and its scabbard next, I say, "This dagger is your back up. It's highly unlikely that anything will happen to your bow, but if you're unable to use it, this dagger will help you. It will always return to this holster, whenever you want it to."
The next to come forward, is Vali. For him, I also made two items. The first, was a set of shoes. Made from Dragon leather, and woven together with very thin strings of Dargonite, the shoes will grant him speeds as high as that of Light, and even higher if he trains enough.
Basically, I turned Vali into Flash. Or an actual God of Speed. While when he woke up as the Speed God of Andalok, he had gotten faster, his max speed was still just a measly 0.001 times the speed of light. The shoes multiplied it by almost a Thousand immediately.
His weapon, meanwhile, were twin daggers. Like the ones Loki used, these Daggers were easily hidden. They were also Enchanted to return to Vali whenever he willed them to come.
For Narfi, I created a staff. Cylindrical in shape, the Staff was fully black in colour. It was made of Dargonite, just like all of the others. But somehow, while making it into a Staff fit for a Winter God, the Dargonite switched colours from Golden-gray to Black.
The Staff could channel Narfi's Winter powers, allowing him to freeze everything with the touch of the staff. It was also Enchanted to be able to summon a Winter storm and reach temperatures as low as 10 Kelvin. Truly, fit for a Winter God. It can also form a highly durable icy point at the top, if he wishes, turning it into a Spear.
Finally, for Jormungandr, I created something which I know he will love. A Warhammer. The Warhammer has a handle Length of 6 feet, and a hammerhead as big as his own head. The two sided Hammer head was a little bigger than Mjolnir's, and a more sharp square shape, but it was just as effective in breaking things.
Although it cannot summon Lightning or storms, it can create Earthquakes if he hits it on the ground hard enough.
Then, for Kali, I created twin swords, four feet in length each. They were curved, like the Elven swords from the Tolkien movies, and came in Dragonhide scabbards, like every other sword I made.
They can also be summoned to her, easily, and to her Scabbards, if one knows how. Doesn't matter where they are, or in what state. They can also channel her Cosmic Energy, meaning she can still use her Cosmic Sword through these Dargonite swords. Along with that, if Kali ever crosses them in front of her, a magical shield forms all around her body, that can stop anything physical from harming her. Even energy attacks will have to be stronger than her own Energy to penetrate the shield, which, while not impossible, is damn hard.
For Chhaya, my lover, I created a sword and shield. The sword was 4.5 feet long, and was a straight sword. The shield was a circular shield, with a diameter of 3 feet.
The sword is the best sword out of all the swords I've made. Forged with the help of Mjolnir, this Dargonite sword is imbued with the blue flames from my Throneworld Dimension. Just like how Narfi's staff turned black, Chhaya's sword turned Golden colour while forging.
The imbued flames allow Chhaya's sword to become as Hot as she can make them, making them even more dangerous. Chhaya can also cover them in flames if she wants to just burn something, and not melt. She can also shoot flames through the Sword Tip, but that was a given after all this.
The shield, which was also made by Mjolnir, meanwhile, can stop even my Celestial Energy blasts. I imbued it with the Power Stone's energy while making this shield, so that even Infinity stones, or Cosmic Energy has issues trying to harm it. I haven't tried my Disintegration Beam, but it definitely won't be disintegrated after just one attack.
Basically, every tool or Weapon I made for my Gods was made to enhance, or help their Divinity. Vali's shoes will improve with him, and definitely make him the fastest being alive some day. Narfi's staff can summon Winter itself. Jormungandr's Warhammer helps direct his superior strength.
Kali's swords will make her two times stronger during the night, and also allow her to channel her Cosmic Energy through them. And Chhaya's Weapons allow her to completely dominate the Sun, if she wishes.
As for Manasi, her domain was Strategy, and I had no idea she would be the Goddess of Strategy when I made the Weapons for her, so they'll help her in whatever way she wishes them too.
Best of all, each and every thing I gave my new Gods allowed them the capability of flight. Vali's shoes even allowed him to run on air, and in vacuum as easily as on Earth. That was one property of Dargonite that I personally didn't need, but was as useful as ever.

Smirking, I say, "I did not forget myself, Chhaya. I was just keeping the best God for the last."
Kali rolls her eyes, and says, "Such humility."
I resist the urge to say 'much wow' and summon my own Weapons. Ànemos, and Astrapi. My faithful axes, now remade out of Dargonite.
Looking at them with sad eyes, I say, "I originally meant to just use my loving axes after remaking them with Dargonite. For so long they have helped me get stronger, that I didn't want to part with them."
Sighing, I keep them on a table I conjure, and say, "Alas, I have to keep them aside now. Ànemos and Astrapi made me into the God King I am today, however I seem to have evolved past them. So, I had to create a Weapon fit for a King."

20 years, it has been, since Manasi became an official God of Andalok, which allowed us three High Gods to finally rest a bit.
Don't get me wrong, there wasn't much work for us in the first place, but we do need to always keep an eye on the planet for other presences, and it gets tiring after a while. Many a times, we had to deal with snooping aliens, and a God or two that tried to take over. Well, we dealt with it.
While Kali stayed in Andalok for the small holiday, I brought Chhaya to Donna. It was time to try for children. It was 10 years of constant 'trying for children', again and again, everyday.
Of course, we didn't do just that. I trained in using my new Spear, which was yet to name itself, and keeping up with all my powers. Then there were the books from Asgard, which I hadn't touched before. I finished them all in these years, giving me a command over my magic that was bordering on Reality Manipulation.
Well, no. My statement was wrong.
I could just command things into happening, such was the magic of the Runes. Combined with my previous knowledge of Greek Runes, that just made my life easier than ever. But this wasn't it, no. I was getting better with every use.
I have a chance to become like the Rune Prince Thor without actually doing anything.
Other than that, I was working on the Potion that Loki gave me, changing its recipe. But I have no need for it, yet, so it's not something I'm rushing.
Otherwise, it was just sex with Chhaya.
Somehow, after a lot of tender kisses, holding hands, and roaming around Donna together, I have to confess, I did come to love her as a lover.
"What are you thinking?" Chhaya asks, climbing over my body as we were sleeping on my bed.
Smiling at her, I say, "Just our holiday. I didn't think our efforts at getting a child into you will take this long. This is probably the only time I'll regret us being Gods."
Divine beings don't easily get pregnant. Other than Mother, but she's literally the Mother Goddess. I'm not the Father God of anything. I'm the Nature God, Elder God, High God, but I am not the Father God.
But we're not complaining. We do have a lot of fun together, you know.
Chhaya asks, "Oh? Getting tired of me already?"
"Never." I whisper, and softly bite Chhaya's nose. As she giggles, I raise my hand and start rubbing her face. I say, "Chhaya?"
"Hmm?" Chhaya asks, enjoying my hand with closed eyes.
"Nothing. Just felt like it." I smile, lying. It's not the time to say it yet. At least, not pre-nut.
~~~
"Stop pacing, brat. Watching you makes my legs hurt." Scathach's voice interrupts me, as I stop pacing around.
Rubbing my hands nervously, I say, "I'm just.. worried, Scathach. This is my first child." In either life, to be honest.
It's been about 100 years since my Weapons were made, and 80 years, since we found out that Chhaya had gotten pregnant. 80 years of pregnancy.
I don't want to sound complaining, but I have no idea how my mothers handled literally thousands of years of a single pregnancy, because I just felt these 80 years almost unbearable.
Not as much as Chhaya found it painful, of course. Don't want Chhaya to get angry at me again.
So, for these 80 years, we've just stayed on Donna, not doing anything that can harm her. Mother and Scathach would visit us, and so would the rest of our Gods. Even the Lokisons were allowed to come here, despite their probation, because it's just that momentary an occasion.
The first Divine pregnancy of Andalok!
When Chhaya had realised that the time for birth had come, we had all immediately left for Induk, as Chhaya wanted to give birth on her birth planet. I agreed, because she's the one giving birth.
Right now, we were in Andalok, in Chhaya's wing. Jormungandr was keeping an eye on the planet, while Vali, Manasi, and Narfi were keeping an eye in Andalok itself. Childbirth will make her vulnerable, and I don't want to take any risk.
Meanwhile, Chhaya, Kali, and Mother were inside her room, preparing for the Childbirth, having kicked me out when I tried to comfort her by saying "It's alright. You'll be okay."
Bloody women.
Scathach snorts, from beside me, and says, "I've never seen a God so worried about child, or the mother. Your own half brothers left the women to their tasks and went out to drink during the birth of their children."
"How do you even know that? Aren't you like, 600,000 years younger than them all?" I ask, not out of any point, but wanting to keep my mind busy.
Shrugging, Scathach says, "Gaea loves her tales almost as much as she loves her children. Well, not as much as you of course, you favourite child."
I snort, knowing that it's only because she actually raised me from childhood. Most of the other Gods were born as teenagers or something. Heck, Atum was literally born as an Adult!
I suddenly gasp, and whisper out, "What if my child is born an adult?! I don't know how to raise an adult!"
"Theos?" Scathach asks, but I don't listen in favour of hyperventilating.
Heck, I don't even know how to raise a child! Will I even be a good father? What if I become someone like Odin, or Queen forbid, Zeus?! What if Chhaya becomes like Hera?! I don't want my child, even if it's a cripple, to be thrown down the mountain!
Suddenly, my cheek stings, as a hand hits my face. I look up, to see Scathach raising her hand for another hit, and just ask "The fuck was that for?!"
"You were panicking. You forgot that Chhaya's the one pushing a baby out of her, and you're the one panicking. Now, speak." Scathach says, sitting down in front of me, right on the floor.
When did I sit down?
Shaking my head, I sit a bit more comfortably by crossing my legs, and ask, "What if I'm not a good father, Scathach? What if my child grows up to hate me because I didn't get them a gift one birthday or something!"
Scathach scoffs, and asks, "You really think a child of you, the humble Nature God, or the grandchild of Gaea, the Mother God, will be such narrow minded? Please, you were amazing as a child, if a little off in the head. There's no way your child will be arrogant. Unless you raise them that way. And will you raise your child to be arrogant?"
"No!" I whisper-shout, knowing that I can't actually shout. Mother might just send me even further.
Scathach then says, "Don't worry too much, brat. You'll be a good father. The worries you show now tell us that much. And, if the child does get arrogant, I'll be there to bring them down a peg. Alright?"
I nod, some tension leaving me. Scathach did a really great job in training me, so I know she'll definitely stop my child from getting arrogant.
Then, she points her head towards the closed door, and asks, "Can you see what's going on over there?"
I shake my head, scowling, and say, "Mother Enchanted the room herself. I doubt even the Watcher Ulana can see in there right now."
"Who?" Scathach asks.
I wave my hand, and say, "Later."
A few minutes later, I suddenly feel something that should have been impossible. Someone's inside Andalok, and they don't have permission.
"Someone's here." I mumble, standing up and summoning my spear, Anugoptr, to my hand.
Scathach stands up with me, and asks, "Where?"
"Somewhere in Andalok." Pausing, I add, "Scathach, stay here please. Kill anyone who comes here. And don't hold back."
Scathach nods, summoning her own spear, Gae Bolg to her hands. Knowing that she's enough to protect my family, along with mother and Kali, I summon a portal to the Throne room.
"Theo!" Manasi yells, jumping up, as I walk through the portal.
Seeing Manasi and Vali suddenly panicking and jumping away from each other, I say, "We'll talk about this later. We have an intruder."
Vali uses his magic to fix his clothes, while Manasi does the same. They both summon their own respective Weapons, and ask, "Where?"
I sit on my Throne and with a thought, the Scrying Pool rises up into the air, now showing the entire area of Andalok.
There was the palace, shown exactly proportionate, while many dots were spread all around.
There were the 3 expected dots showing Chhaya, Kali, and Mother inside Chhaya's room, while a single dot denoting Scathach stood outside it. In the Throne room, Manasi, Vali, and I were the only dots present.
But Jormungandr and Narfi were nowhere to be seen inside the Palace. There were literally hundreds of Dots outside the palace, spread around.
Turning towards Vali, I ask, "Where is Narfi?" I know Jormungandr was on Induk, to defend in case someone attacks while we were distracted.
Vali walks closer to the Scrying Pool, and says, "Narfi went away when Manasi and I needed some privacy. He said he was going outside the palace."
I click my tongue, looking over the map again and again. Damn, I really should have put the naming function in too. Or at least something to distinguish friend from foe.
I say, "I'll be going outside the Palce. Manasi, Vali, you'll keep to the Throne Room, but keep an eye on Chhaya's rooms. If more than three dots start moving there, go defend them."
Nodding, they start keeping watch. As I prepare to teleport outside, Vali says, "Theos? Find my brother.. please."
I nod at him, and teleport outside the Palace, but stay inside Andalok. Once outside, I close my eyes, and push my Echolocation to the limit, looking for Narfi.
It barely takes a second before I shoot into the air, towards the direction Narfi is in.
He was surrounded by what felt to me like necromantic energy, and he was fighting the warriors that exuded it.
Within a few seconds at most, I drop down on the ground in front of Narfi with a crash, sending dust all around, and put my hand on Narfi's shoulder. As I heal his cut, I say, "I don't know how you came here, demons, but you won't leave."
Narfi grunts, as the cut on his shoulder heals, and says, "They're not demons. They just look like them. And they don't talk, at all."
Frowning, I give the group a good long look.
There were around 200 of them, all of them pitch black in colour, with eyes of either red or white. Many of them were surrounding Narfi and I, and even he was having a hard time defeating them.
His staff lay on the ground, along with a few dozen of these creatures frozen into statues.
I say, "Narfi. Go to the Throne Room, and tell Vali to find and help Jormungandr. They are not Demons, but the one who controls them is far more dangerous than them."
"What about these creatures?" Narfi asks, as he picks his staff up from the ground.
Seeing the creatures become vary with my appearance, I smirk, and say, "These creatures dared to sneak into Andalok, and interrupt my first childbirth. Eliminate them all with extreme prejudice."
And then, as Narfi goes through the portal I create for him, I spin the spear in my hand, and yell, "Bring it on, Berserkers. Show me what the God Butcher's toys are made of."

Elsewhere, on Induk, a lonely Giant of a God stayed floating above the planet, keeping an eye on any approaching dangers.
Suddenly, his senses blare, but before he can even look up, he gets drop kicked into the ground.
As he crashes down, Jormungandr sees the enemy to be covered in black, his size almost bigger than him.
Standing up, Jormungandr takes the Warhammer, from his back, and grins at the enemy. He says, "I haven't gotten to test my new Strength Divinity yet. You shall be perfect, creature."
"A God of Strength, eh? Show me your strength then! Show me!" the attacker yells, covered in a robe made of black, which moved around according to his wishes.
And then, he attacks.
~~~
A/N: I wanted to bring the TVA, instead of Gorr, but then I realized. If TVA was going to interrupt his methods, they would have done so when Theos was born, or when Theos killed Cuchulain, or when Theos was present during Ragnarok, or when he brought the Lokisons to Andalok, etc etc.
So, yeah. Gorr is here!
I won't make this into an arc, but a filler, sort of. So at most 5 chapters, but probably just 2-3.
Tata!

20 years, it has been, since Manasi became an official God of Andalok, which allowed us three High Gods to finally rest a bit.
Don't get me wrong, there wasn't much work for us in the first place, but we do need to always keep an eye on the planet for other presences, and it gets tiring after a while. Many a times, we had to deal with snooping aliens, and a God or two that tried to take over. Well, we dealt with it.
While Kali stayed in Andalok for the small holiday, I brought Chhaya to Donna. It was time to try for children. It was 10 years of constant 'trying for children', again and again, everyday.
Of course, we didn't do just that. I trained in using my new Spear, which was yet to name itself, and keeping up with all my powers. Then there were the books from Asgard, which I hadn't touched before. I finished them all in these years, giving me a command over my magic that was bordering on Reality Manipulation.
Well, no. My statement was wrong.
I could just command things into happening, such was the magic of the Runes. Combined with my previous knowledge of Greek Runes, that just made my life easier than ever. But this wasn't it, no. I was getting better with every use.
I have a chance to become like the Rune Prince Thor without actually doing anything.
Other than that, I was working on the Potion that Loki gave me, changing its recipe. But I have no need for it, yet, so it's not something I'm rushing.
Otherwise, it was just sex with Chhaya.
Somehow, after a lot of tender kisses, holding hands, and roaming around Donna together, I have to confess, I did come to love her as a lover.
"What are you thinking?" Chhaya asks, climbing over my body as we were sleeping on my bed.
Smiling at her, I say, "Just our holiday. I didn't think our efforts at getting a child into you will take this long. This is probably the only time I'll regret us being Gods."
Divine beings don't easily get pregnant. Other than Mother, but she's literally the Mother Goddess. I'm not the Father God of anything. I'm the Nature God, Elder God, High God, but I am not the Father God.
But we're not complaining. We do have a lot of fun together, you know.
Chhaya asks, "Oh? Getting tired of me already?"
"Never." I whisper, and softly bite Chhaya's nose. As she giggles, I raise my hand and start rubbing her face. I say, "Chhaya?"
"Hmm?" Chhaya asks, enjoying my hand with closed eyes.
"Nothing. Just felt like it." I smile, lying. It's not the time to say it yet. At least, not pre-nut.
~~~
"Stop pacing, brat. Watching you makes my legs hurt." Scathach's voice interrupts me, as I stop pacing around.
Rubbing my hands nervously, I say, "I'm just.. worried, Scathach. This is my first child." In either life, to be honest.
It's been about 100 years since my Weapons were made, and 80 years, since we found out that Chhaya had gotten pregnant. 80 years of pregnancy.
I don't want to sound complaining, but I have no idea how my mothers handled literally thousands of years of a single pregnancy, because I just felt these 80 years almost unbearable.
Not as much as Chhaya found it painful, of course. Don't want Chhaya to get angry at me again.
So, for these 80 years, we've just stayed on Donna, not doing anything that can harm her. Mother and Scathach would visit us, and so would the rest of our Gods. Even the Lokisons were allowed to come here, despite their probation, because it's just that momentary an occasion.
The first Divine pregnancy of Andalok!
When Chhaya had realised that the time for birth had come, we had all immediately left for Induk, as Chhaya wanted to give birth on her birth planet. I agreed, because she's the one giving birth.
Right now, we were in Andalok, in Chhaya's wing. Jormungandr was keeping an eye on the planet, while Vali, Manasi, and Narfi were keeping an eye in Andalok itself. Childbirth will make her vulnerable, and I don't want to take any risk.
Meanwhile, Chhaya, Kali, and Mother were inside her room, preparing for the Childbirth, having kicked me out when I tried to comfort her by saying "It's alright. You'll be okay."
Bloody women.
Scathach snorts, from beside me, and says, "I've never seen a God so worried about child, or the mother. Your own half brothers left the women to their tasks and went out to drink during the birth of their children."
"How do you even know that? Aren't you like, 600,000 years younger than them all?" I ask, not out of any point, but wanting to keep my mind busy.
Shrugging, Scathach says, "Gaea loves her tales almost as much as she loves her children. Well, not as much as you of course, you favourite child."
I snort, knowing that it's only because she actually raised me from childhood. Most of the other Gods were born as teenagers or something. Heck, Atum was literally born as an Adult!
I suddenly gasp, and whisper out, "What if my child is born an adult?! I don't know how to raise an adult!"
"Theos?" Scathach asks, but I don't listen in favour of hyperventilating.
Heck, I don't even know how to raise a child! Will I even be a good father? What if I become someone like Odin, or Queen forbid, Zeus?! What if Chhaya becomes like Hera?! I don't want my child, even if it's a cripple, to be thrown down the mountain!
Suddenly, my cheek stings, as a hand hits my face. I look up, to see Scathach raising her hand for another hit, and just ask "The fuck was that for?!"
"You were panicking. You forgot that Chhaya's the one pushing a baby out of her, and you're the one panicking. Now, speak." Scathach says, sitting down in front of me, right on the floor.
When did I sit down?
Shaking my head, I sit a bit more comfortably by crossing my legs, and ask, "What if I'm not a good father, Scathach? What if my child grows up to hate me because I didn't get them a gift one birthday or something!"
Scathach scoffs, and asks, "You really think a child of you, the humble Nature God, or the grandchild of Gaea, the Mother God, will be such narrow minded? Please, you were amazing as a child, if a little off in the head. There's no way your child will be arrogant. Unless you raise them that way. And will you raise your child to be arrogant?"
"No!" I whisper-shout, knowing that I can't actually shout. Mother might just send me even further.
Scathach then says, "Don't worry too much, brat. You'll be a good father. The worries you show now tell us that much. And, if the child does get arrogant, I'll be there to bring them down a peg. Alright?"
I nod, some tension leaving me. Scathach did a really great job in training me, so I know she'll definitely stop my child from getting arrogant.
Then, she points her head towards the closed door, and asks, "Can you see what's going on over there?"
I shake my head, scowling, and say, "Mother Enchanted the room herself. I doubt even the Watcher Ulana can see in there right now."
"Who?" Scathach asks.
I wave my hand, and say, "Later."
A few minutes later, I suddenly feel something that should have been impossible. Someone's inside Andalok, and they don't have permission.
"Someone's here." I mumble, standing up and summoning my spear, Anugoptr, to my hand.
Scathach stands up with me, and asks, "Where?"
"Somewhere in Andalok." Pausing, I add, "Scathach, stay here please. Kill anyone who comes here. And don't hold back."
Scathach nods, summoning her own spear, Gae Bolg to her hands. Knowing that she's enough to protect my family, along with mother and Kali, I summon a portal to the Throne room.
"Theo!" Manasi yells, jumping up, as I walk through the portal.
Seeing Manasi and Vali suddenly panicking and jumping away from each other, I say, "We'll talk about this later. We have an intruder."
Vali uses his magic to fix his clothes, while Manasi does the same. They both summon their own respective Weapons, and ask, "Where?"
I sit on my Throne and with a thought, the Scrying Pool rises up into the air, now showing the entire area of Andalok.
There was the palace, shown exactly proportionate, while many dots were spread all around.
There were the 3 expected dots showing Chhaya, Kali, and Mother inside Chhaya's room, while a single dot denoting Scathach stood outside it. In the Throne room, Manasi, Vali, and I were the only dots present.
But Jormungandr and Narfi were nowhere to be seen inside the Palace. There were literally hundreds of Dots outside the palace, spread around.
Turning towards Vali, I ask, "Where is Narfi?" I know Jormungandr was on Induk, to defend in case someone attacks while we were distracted.
Vali walks closer to the Scrying Pool, and says, "Narfi went away when Manasi and I needed some privacy. He said he was going outside the palace."
I click my tongue, looking over the map again and again. Damn, I really should have put the naming function in too. Or at least something to distinguish friend from foe.
I say, "I'll be going outside the Palce. Manasi, Vali, you'll keep to the Throne Room, but keep an eye on Chhaya's rooms. If more than three dots start moving there, go defend them."
Nodding, they start keeping watch. As I prepare to teleport outside, Vali says, "Theos? Find my brother.. please."
I nod at him, and teleport outside the Palace, but stay inside Andalok. Once outside, I close my eyes, and push my Echolocation to the limit, looking for Narfi.
It barely takes a second before I shoot into the air, towards the direction Narfi is in.
He was surrounded by what felt to me like necromantic energy, and he was fighting the warriors that exuded it.
Within a few seconds at most, I drop down on the ground in front of Narfi with a crash, sending dust all around, and put my hand on Narfi's shoulder. As I heal his cut, I say, "I don't know how you came here, demons, but you won't leave."
Narfi grunts, as the cut on his shoulder heals, and says, "They're not demons. They just look like them. And they don't talk, at all."
Frowning, I give the group a good long look.
There were around 200 of them, all of them pitch black in colour, with eyes of either red or white. Many of them were surrounding Narfi and I, and even he was having a hard time defeating them.
His staff lay on the ground, along with a few dozen of these creatures frozen into statues.
I say, "Narfi. Go to the Throne Room, and tell Vali to find and help Jormungandr. They are not Demons, but the one who controls them is far more dangerous than them."
"What about these creatures?" Narfi asks, as he picks his staff up from the ground.
Seeing the creatures become vary with my appearance, I smirk, and say, "These creatures dared to sneak into Andalok, and interrupt my first childbirth. Eliminate them all with extreme prejudice."
And then, as Narfi goes through the portal I create for him, I spin the spear in my hand, and yell, "Bring it on, Berserkers. Show me what the God Butcher's toys are made of."

Elsewhere, on Induk, a lonely Giant of a God stayed floating above the planet, keeping an eye on any approaching dangers.
Suddenly, his senses blare, but before he can even look up, he gets drop kicked into the ground.
As he crashes down, Jormungandr sees the enemy to be covered in black, his size almost bigger than him.
Standing up, Jormungandr takes the Warhammer, from his back, and grins at the enemy. He says, "I haven't gotten to test my new Strength Divinity yet. You shall be perfect, creature."
"A God of Strength, eh? Show me your strength then! Show me!" the attacker yells, covered in a robe made of black, which moved around according to his wishes.

Just one chapter today, thank you for waiting patiently!

It was tedious, and almost a little hard. I'd underestimated these buggers, these Black Berserkers.
And that is what they are, Berserkers. Each of them was about as strong as Kali herself was, and she wasn't weak. I might be more than three times stronger than her now, and have the ability to get even stronger than that, but there are literally 200 of these Black Berserkers.
I had my spear, Anugoptr in my hands, spinning around, cutting the heads off the Berserkers one by one. Whenever I would cut a head off, the entire Berserker would turn to black dust, and move towards the closest Berserkers, Making them a little bit stronger.
Even so, I wasn't unharmed, as evidenced by the very slow healing wounds on my back, and chest.
Flying up, I blast them away with a wave of Lightning all around me, I take a breath and observe.
The arms of these Black Berserkers were turned to sharp blades, that even managed to cut through the Vibranium armour I'm wearing. Thank Queen my Dargonite isn't as weak as Vibranium, so my Spear was safe.
There were still about 160 of those Berserkers remaining, and they can even fly. Great.
As I see a few of them start flying towards the palace, I shoot after them, and point my spear at them. From the spear tip, a very thin beam of my Magic shoots out, cutting their heads off, killing them all.
I suddenly duck, letting a big Black Berserker fly over me, and spin Anugoptr, cutting into its chest to a spurt of black blood. The cut heals right in front of my eyes, and the Berserker manages to slash his sword hand once again.
Blocking the strike with my spear, I punch it in the face with such a force, that the entire head blows up, killing it.
"COME ON! IS THAT ALL YOU GOT?!" I yell, slashing at another group of Berserkers.
My wounds were still healing, albeit too slow. That wouldn't have been worrying, if I wasn't currently in a Realm I completely control!
Ten more of the Berserkers crowd me, and as one, three manage to land a punch on my face, throwing me into the ground. I quickly jump up, avoiding getting skewered by the sharp hands of the creatures, and yell, "AAARGHH!"
Almost immediately, a wild force of Lightning exits my body, slamming into everything there and destroying them. For 50 meters, it continues, and keeps destroying every Black Berserker within the limit.
Finally, only about twenty of the creatures remain, and I slam my Spear on the ground. The creatures, which were beginning to run towards the Palace suddenly stop, their bodies bound by the magic of Andalok itself.
I already know that they are mindless. They could have been sentient, once upon a time, but now, they're just mindless Berserkers that do the Biddings of Gorr, the God Butcher.
I whisper, "You can kill them, Manasi. There isn't any information that they can give us."
Manasi, who had appeared through a glowing blue portal of her own, sighs, having found out so quickly, and with a single pull of her bow, fires 10 arrows made up of Cosmic Energy at their heads, killing the Berserkers immediately.
We see the resultant dust fly out towards the entrance of Andalok, and Manasi asks, "You aren't going to tell mother.. right? About me and Vali?"
Sighing, I say, "This is so not the time, Manasi. My advice is, talk with your mother yourself if you're sure. Be warned that Vali is an old God, older than even myself, your mother, and your aunt combined. Don't allow your feelings for him to make you stupid. Make the decisions with a lot of thought behind them."
"You're talking as if I'm going to marry him! I'm not, really! We're just.. experimenting." Manasi yells, with a red face, and says the last part in a soft shameful voice.
Damn, I really don't have time for this.
I put a hand on her shoulder in reassurance, and say, "Listen kid. I won't begrudge you for experimenting, Queen knows I've done a fair share of that, and so has your mother. I'm just warning you to be careful. You're too young to be hooked up, that too to an old guy like Vali. Explore, visit different places, try some variety. You're allowed that. But be careful. It'll break your mother's heart if someone hurt yours. Now, I'd love to continue, but Jormungandr is fighting the one who created and controlled these creatures, and he's alone. So, I have to go."
"Oh, alright. And don't worry, Vali went to help after Narfi came to the Palace."
Nodding at her, I look towards the Palace, and see Narfi sitting in the Throne Room, watching over the map for any stragglers. Scathach was bleeding a little, having probably fought a few Berserkers on her own, and then turn towards the door.
Surprisingly, the protection spells were turned off, and I could clearly see into the room with my Echolocation. Chhaya was on the bed, still with a big womb, while Kali sat beside her, holding her hand in reassurance. Meanwhile, mother was looking right at me.
I ask, "Are you alright?" knowing that she can hear me just as well as I can. Benefits of being the Mother of the Skyfather, I guess.
Nodding, mother says, "We are well, and unharmed. Chhaya is sure to give birth within a quarter hour, so be quick with the enemy, my son."
Smiling, I glance at the woman on the bed, and immediately lose my smile, and tremble out of fear. That's how it looks?! Damn! I'll never underestimate her now. If Chhaya can do that with barely a wince on her face, the she can do anything.
Gulping, I say, "Take care of her.. please."
Mother nods, and waves me away, turning the protection spells on once again. Done reassuring myself, and ignoring the curious looks of Manasi, I turn towards the entrance of Andalok, and teleport away.
~
Jormungandr was enjoying himself. Ever since he had become a God of Strength, he had felt an increase in his physical might.
Where before he was an equal to an unworthy Thor, and just a little weaker than a worthy one, now, he was an equal to the worthy Thor.
Unfortunately, there wasn't anything he could test it on.
His King was too strong for even him, while the others were too weak. Well, by others he meant his brothers, and the newest Goddess, Manasi. He wouldn't try and harm the Queens before getting out of probation. He knew his limits, and Theos was way out there.
But this man, was exactly equal to his strength. Except, the enemy was unarmed, while he had his new Warhammer, Leviathan in his hands.
Blocking a punch by the enemy, who was bigger than even him, with his forearm, Jormungandr says, "You're strong, and you aren't even a God! What are you?"
The being scoffs, and faster than a blink, kicks Jormungandr in the chest, sending him flying. Landing on Jormungandr's gut, he snarls, "I am no God! I'm better! I'm the God Butcher!"
Spitting out blood, Jormungandr spins his giant hammer and hits it on the enemy's knee, causing him to lose balance. Flipping upwards, Jormungandr immediately hits the hammer on the God Butcher's face, and sends him flying back towards the mountains.
Taking a short break, Jormungandr points the hammer upwards, and goes flying behind the enemy. However, before he can even rise from the ground, he senses danger, and jumps to the side.
This saves him from being stabbed in the chest by a sword made of some weird moving material, that kept shifting its shape as it stabbed into the ground.
Jormungandr jumps away from the sword, knowing by just a single look that the sword was Bad News.
The enemy, who had been wearing nothing but a small cloak that covered his privates during the fight, was now floating in the air right above the sword. Only now, he was wearing a robe made of the same black material that the sword was made of.
He says, "You dodged that, hmm? And you suddenly think that you have a chance of winning?"
Jormungandr smirks widely, and says, "You're a mortal dependent on a superior weapon. Of course I have a chance of winning. I am a God of Andalok, and there's no way I'm losing a fight to a mortal, let alone one as ugly as you."
Surprisingly enough, that causes the enemy to laugh. He laughs and laughs, and then suddenly has Jormungandr on the ground, the sword through his shoulder.
Shifting the sword in its place, the enemy says, "In my thousands of years of life, I've killed Gods of Strength, War, Nature, Love, and even their Kings. I've destroyed entire civilizations, entire Pantheons, and you, a lone God on a planet full of cavemen, think you have a chance of defeating me, Gorr the God Butcher?! Hah!"
"Who said he's alone?" a mischief filled voice says from behind him, and before he can even turn around, he gets punched at Light speed.
Vali sees the enemy flying away from him, towards the horizon, and turning to a slowly recovering Jormungandr, he asks asks, "Having trouble, brother?"
Jormungandr winces at the wound on his shoulder, which refuses to heal, and says, "You're late."
"A Speed God is never late, brother. He's there exactly when he wants to. Now, what's his problem?" Vali says, and then points towards a flying Gorr, who was fast approaching them.
"No idea." Jormungandr says, shifting the hammer in his off hand. Glancing at the perfect copy of his father, he says, "He's a mortal, that somehow got offended by a God, probably Odin, and found an evil looking sword which empowered him or something like that. He claimed to have massacred entire Pantheons, so be careful."
As if he heard them talking, the God Butcher shouts, "I don't claim.. anything! I've done it, and more! And now, instead of one, I'll get to kill two Gods!"
Patting Jormungandr on the shoulder, the injured one, Vali ignores the wince given, and says, "Take a step back, brother, I'll handle this."
"Vali! Doooooonnnnn'ttt!" Jormungandr says, and then at the end, slows down to a crawl.
Smirking, Vali runs towards Gorr, and stops in front of an almost motionless God Butcher. Pulling his arm back, Vali punches Gorr on his nose, making it turn a little side ways.
Gorr moves by the force of the punch, and starts flying backwards, once again, in slow motion. When he flies away, Vali is there in the way to stop him, and once again punches Gorr away from him.
He does it a few more times, and then pulls out his daggers. Still in slowed down time, Vali stabs one of his Enchanted daggers in the forehead of the enemy, and the other in the heart.
Believing the job to be almost done, Vali punches his fist towards the dagger on the forehead, aiming to push it even further in. However, his fist is stopped an inch away from the hilt of the dagger, as a black tendril of the robe reaches out from Gorr's head.
Wide eyed, Vali stops his enhanced time out of shock. With a blurred motion, Gorr knees Vali in the stomach, and then swiftly removes the dagger in his chest, immediately stabbing Vali in the chest by his own dagger.
"VALI! NO!" Jormungandr yells, seeing Vali getting stabbed in the chest. He had seen Vali disappear, and then Gorr barely a moment after, and a second later, they were both visible once again, with Vali frozen in shock, and now in pain.
Laughing, Gorr asks, "A God of Speed thinks he can kill me? The God Butcher has killed many Gods of Speed, but I have to confess. You're the fastest of them all."
He then kicks Vali away from him, and towards Jormungandr. Jormungandr catches Vali in his hands, and immediately removes the dagger from his chest, knowing that the wound will heal soon enough.
Gorr however has other plans, and he speeds behind Jormungandr, the second dagger, the one from his now healed forehead in his hands. He stabs downwards, aiming at the back of Jormungandr's head.
However, a very strong uppercut in the chin sends him flying away from the pair, right out into space.
The King of Andalok was here. Theos Jordson was on Induk, and he was pissed.
~~~
A/N: Okay, I have to confess, when I brought in Gorr, I was a bit.. depressed, so I didn't think it through. But, as I was sleeping today afternoon(nap time), this came to me. I had a vision of the next few chapters!
Don't worry, it still won't be an arc, just a short filler to give Theos a power boost. You'll see.
Some explanations: Dargonite stops Magical healing for everyone except the owner of those Weapons. So, The axes cuts won't harm Theos, or his children if they use the axes, and the daggers won't stop Vali's healing from working.
Secondly, Vibranium isn't weak, but when the opposite side uses All Black, almost everything not Light is weak. Even Enchanted, Vibranium doesn't get to the level of Divine Metals.
'What about Cap's shield then? It stopped Thor's hammer!' Good point, and there are two answers.
1. The Shield isn't made of Vibranium only, it has a few more materials, which turned it into Proto-Adamantium. Lets just assume that Howard Stark refused to change the name from Vibranium, and told everyone that the entire shield is pure Vibranium.
2. Mjolnir is a blunt Weapon, and its force gets distributed when hit on the flat side of the shield. And Thor wasn't exactly serious during that fight, I think.
Now, comments please! Tata!
Just one chapter today, thank you for waiting patiently!

"You're talking as if I'm going to marry him! I'm not, really! We're just.. experimenting." Manasi yells, with a red face, and says the last part in a soft shameful voice.
Damn, I really don't have time for this.
I put a hand on her shoulder in reassurance, and say, "Listen kid. I won't begrudge you for experimenting, Queen knows I've done a fair share of that, and so has your mother. I'm just warning you to be careful. You're too young to be hooked up, that too to an old guy like Vali. Explore, visit different places, try some variety. You're allowed that. But be careful. It'll break your mother's heart if someone hurt yours. Now, I'd love to continue, but Jormungandr is fighting the one who created and controlled these creatures, and he's alone. So, I have to go."
"Oh, alright. And don't worry, Vali went to help after Narfi came to the Palace."
Nodding at her, I look towards the Palace, and see Narfi sitting in the Throne Room, watching over the map for any stragglers. Scathach was bleeding a little, having probably fought a few Berserkers on her own, and then turn towards the door.
Surprisingly, the protection spells were turned off, and I could clearly see into the room with my Echolocation. Chhaya was on the bed, still with a big womb, while Kali sat beside her, holding her hand in reassurance. Meanwhile, mother was looking right at me.
I ask, "Are you alright?" knowing that she can hear me just as well as I can. Benefits of being the Mother of the Skyfather, I guess.
Nodding, mother says, "We are well, and unharmed. Chhaya is sure to give birth within a quarter hour, so be quick with the enemy, my son."
Smiling, I glance at the woman on the bed, and immediately lose my smile, and tremble out of fear. That's how it looks?! Damn! I'll never underestimate her now. If Chhaya can do that with barely a wince on her face, the she can do anything.
Gulping, I say, "Take care of her.. please."
Mother nods, and waves me away, turning the protection spells on once again. Done reassuring myself, and ignoring the curious looks of Manasi, I turn towards the entrance of Andalok, and teleport away.

Jormungandr was enjoying himself. Ever since he had become a God of Strength, he had felt an increase in his physical might.
Where before he was an equal to an unworthy Thor, and just a little weaker than a worthy one, now, he was an equal to the worthy Thor.
Unfortunately, there wasn't anything he could test it on.
His King was too strong for even him, while the others were too weak. Well, by others he meant his brothers, and the newest Goddess, Manasi. He wouldn't try and harm the Queens before getting out of probation. He knew his limits, and Theos was way out there.
But this man, was exactly equal to his strength. Except, the enemy was unarmed, while he had his new Warhammer, Leviathan in his hands.
Blocking a punch by the enemy, who was bigger than even him, with his forearm, Jormungandr says, "You're strong, and you aren't even a God! What are you?"
The being scoffs, and faster than a blink, kicks Jormungandr in the chest, sending him flying. Landing on Jormungandr's gut, he snarls, "I am no God! I'm better! I'm the God Butcher!"
Spitting out blood, Jormungandr spins his giant hammer and hits it on the enemy's knee, causing him to lose balance. Flipping upwards, Jormungandr immediately hits the hammer on the God Butcher's face, and sends him flying back towards the mountains.
Taking a short break, Jormungandr points the hammer upwards, and goes flying behind the enemy. However, before he can even rise from the ground, he senses danger, and jumps to the side.
This saves him from being stabbed in the chest by a sword made of some weird moving material, that kept shifting its shape as it stabbed into the ground.
Jormungandr jumps away from the sword, knowing by just a single look that the sword was Bad News.
The enemy, who had been wearing nothing but a small cloak that covered his privates during the fight, was now floating in the air right above the sword. Only now, he was wearing a robe made of the same black material that the sword was made of.
He says, "You dodged that, hmm? And you suddenly think that you have a chance of winning?"
Jormungandr smirks widely, and says, "You're a mortal dependent on a superior weapon. Of course I have a chance of winning. I am a God of Andalok, and there's no way I'm losing a fight to a mortal, let alone one as ugly as you."
Surprisingly enough, that causes the enemy to laugh. He laughs and laughs, and then suddenly has Jormungandr on the ground, the sword through his shoulder.
Shifting the sword in its place, the enemy says, "In my thousands of years of life, I've killed Gods of Strength, War, Nature, Love, and even their Kings. I've destroyed entire civilizations, entire Pantheons, and you, a lone God on a planet full of cavemen, think you have a chance of defeating me, Gorr the God Butcher?! Hah!"
"Who said he's alone?" a mischief filled voice says from behind him, and before he can even turn around, he gets punched at Light speed.
Vali sees the enemy flying away from him, towards the horizon, and turning to a slowly recovering Jormungandr, he asks asks, "Having trouble, brother?"
Jormungandr winces at the wound on his shoulder, which refuses to heal, and says, "You're late."
"A Speed God is never late, brother. He's there exactly when he wants to. Now, what's his problem?" Vali says, and then points towards a flying Gorr, who was fast approaching them.
"No idea." Jormungandr says, shifting the hammer in his off hand. Glancing at the perfect copy of his father, he says, "He's a mortal, that somehow got offended by a God, probably Odin, and found an evil looking sword which empowered him or something like that. He claimed to have massacred entire Pantheons, so be careful."
As if he heard them talking, the God Butcher shouts, "I don't claim.. anything! I've done it, and more! And now, instead of one, I'll get to kill two Gods!"
Patting Jormungandr on the shoulder, the injured one, Vali ignores the wince given, and says, "Take a step back, brother, I'll handle this."
"Vali! Doooooonnnnn'ttt!" Jormungandr says, and then at the end, slows down to a crawl.
Smirking, Vali runs towards Gorr, and stops in front of an almost motionless God Butcher. Pulling his arm back, Vali punches Gorr on his nose, making it turn a little side ways.
Gorr moves by the force of the punch, and starts flying backwards, once again, in slow motion. When he flies away, Vali is there in the way to stop him, and once again punches Gorr away from him.
He does it a few more times, and then pulls out his daggers. Still in slowed down time, Vali stabs one of his Enchanted daggers in the forehead of the enemy, and the other in the heart.
Believing the job to be almost done, Vali punches his fist towards the dagger on the forehead, aiming to push it even further in. However, his fist is stopped an inch away from the hilt of the dagger, as a black tendril of the robe reaches out from Gorr's head.
Wide eyed, Vali stops his enhanced time out of shock. With a blurred motion, Gorr knees Vali in the stomach, and then swiftly removes the dagger in his chest, immediately stabbing Vali in the chest by his own dagger.
"VALI! NO!" Jormungandr yells, seeing Vali getting stabbed in the chest. He had seen Vali disappear, and then Gorr barely a moment after, and a second later, they were both visible once again, with Vali frozen in shock, and now in pain.
Laughing, Gorr asks, "A God of Speed thinks he can kill me? The God Butcher has killed many Gods of Speed, but I have to confess. You're the fastest of them all."
He then kicks Vali away from him, and towards Jormungandr. Jormungandr catches Vali in his hands, and immediately removes the dagger from his chest, knowing that the wound will heal soon enough.
Gorr however has other plans, and he speeds behind Jormungandr, the second dagger, the one from his now healed forehead in his hands. He stabs downwards, aiming at the back of Jormungandr's head.
However, a very strong uppercut in the chin sends him flying away from the pair, right out into space.
The King of Andalok was here. Theos Jordson was on Induk, and he was pissed.
~~~
A/N: Okay, I have to confess, when I brought in Gorr, I was a bit.. depressed, so I didn't think it through. But, as I was sleeping today afternoon(nap time), this came to me. I had a vision of the next few chapters!
Don't worry, it still won't be an arc, just a short filler to give Theos a power boost. You'll see.
Some explanations: Dargonite stops Magical healing for everyone except the owner of those Weapons. So, The axes cuts won't harm Theos, or his children if they use the axes, and the daggers won't stop Vali's healing from working.
Secondly, Vibranium isn't weak, but when the opposite side uses All Black, almost everything not Light is weak. Even Enchanted, Vibranium doesn't get to the level of Divine Metals.
'What about Cap's shield then? It stopped Thor's hammer!' Good point, and there are two answers.
1. The Shield isn't made of Vibranium only, it has a few more materials, which turned it into Proto-Adamantium. Lets just assume that Howard Stark refused to change the name from Vibranium, and told everyone that the entire shield is pure Vibranium.
2. Mjolnir is a blunt Weapon, and its force gets distributed when hit on the flat side of the shield. And Thor wasn't exactly serious during that fight, I think.
Now, comments please! Tata!
Ch 86: The End of Gorr?

A/N: Pat-reon: HelloDarkness07
I need to say something, which many of you won't like. I'm slowing down the upload speed to one chapter a week, because I write this fic very slowly. The plot has gotten a bit tougher to figure out, recently, which is why I focus more on the Mason Aves fic.
I have no current plans of abandoning this, or the Mason Aves story, but if I do, I'll inform you all before I completely abandon it. I still have 8 advanced chapters on Pat-reon, and I'll start writing another one today, if my mind permits.
Thank you for waiting patiently. Thank you. Now, read on!
~~~
Gorr, the God Butcher. He was finally here. More than 5000 years, it has been, since I'd seen him finding the All Black, and now, he's finally here. On Induk, my planet, aiming for the Death of all Gods.
I definitely take an exception to that.
As soon as I teleport to Jormungandr's location, I see Gorr stabbing a dagger, one I recognize to be the exact one I made for Vali, down towards the back of Jormungandr's head. Speeding forward, I momentarily push my Magic into my arm to enhance its strength, and punch Gorr's chin.
The force of the punch breaks Gorrs neck, and he goes flying into space. But, I know that he will heal soon enough, and return.
Turning my head down, I see Vali slowly healing. Thank Queen, I had Enchanted every weapon to not inhibit Magical healing for the Andalok Gods. That would have been embarrassing, dying by your own weapon.
Turning towards a somber Jormungandr, I say, "This enemy is beyond your strength, Jormungandr. I'd appreciate if you retreat to Andalok."
Jormungandr nods, still sad, and says, "Aye. I realize that I've made an error in judgement. I thought I could take him, but he's far more than I can handle."
I pat his shoulder, and say, "Do not worry, Jormungandr. You still have a lot of power to grow into. The title of the Strength God isn't for show, you know. You'll have to train, and one day, you will become one of the strongest beings in the Universe."
Nodding, Jormungandr fixes his Warhammer on his back, and picks Vali up. I create a portal for them to walk through, taking them straight towards Manasi and Narfi in the Throne Room.
Note to self, put up a healing chamber for us Gods.
As they disappear from Induk, I look up and take a couple steps back, dodging the dark black sword that was aiming to split me in two, top to bottom.
Summoning Anugoptr to my hand, I swipe at Gorr from left to right, but his AllBlack sword blocks it without much issue.
"And who are you supposed to be? I didn't know this planet had more Gods again." Gorr asks, putting pressure on his sword.
I hold my own against him with my spear, and say, "My name is Theos, the Elder God of this planet, and the current Skyfather. And you're the God Butcher, Gorr."
"How do you know that?" Gorr says, annoyed, a few black tendrils getting loose from his robe to attack me.
I summon the flames from my Throneworld, burning the tendrils away from me, and kick Gorr away as he's weakened by the Light of my Magic flames. As he starts getting up, I say, "I was warned of your eventual appearance, Gorr. Now, I'll give you one chance. Get off my planet, and I'll leave you alone."
Not bloody likely, but I do have an image to keep. A Nature God is supposed to be pacifist, right?
Gorr snarls in anger, and reabsorbs his sword into his robe. Barehanded, he runs towards me with his hands on his side. I run towards him, not wanting to give him any advantage, holding my spear in my right hand.
He punches down at my cheek, which I lean to avoid. I stab my spear at him while leaning, which he slaps away with the disturbingly durable robe. He then tries to knee my stomach, but I raise my own knee to block it. I then punch my left hand towards his face, which he once again slaps away with the robe.
Only this time, I notice that the robe was moving on its own, and not at Gorr's prompting. This Gorr is strong, strongest of all the enemies I've fought yet, excluding the Knull infested Celestial. But he didn't have experience fighting Gods as strong as me. Elder Gods. But the damned Robe was getting in the way of my winning.
As Gorr and I exchange punches and kicks, I try to gain an advantage, quite unsuccessfully. He was fast, and his All Black was Troublesome. I was stronger, and faster too, but nothing I did stuck on him. I'm not using the Power Stone or my Celestial form on one such as this one. That was reserved for Celestials, Knull, and anyone above that level.
My spear was thankfully unharmed, my enchantments and the metal doing their jobs, as he would summon a weapon or two in between to catch me off guard. And I was keeping my eyes wide open, not letting him gain the upper hand.
After about half an hour of fighting continuously, we both are still unharmed, thanks to our respective healing factors. But I can feel, that the more I got cut, the more his strength increased, and the slower I healed. He was absorbing some of my power with every cut. I had to finish it quickly.
Our fight had already destroyed a lot of the beautiful landscapes of this part of Induk, and I was no closer to defeating him than I was in the beginning.
A few minutes later, I manage to land a cut on Gorr's cheek, and trip him by kicking the side of his knee. Taking advantage of the minor distraction, and once again increasing the strength of my right fist, I drive Anugoptr straight through Gorr's chest.
I lift him up by the spear, and throw him into the air. As he goes flying, I estimate where he's going to fall, and teleport there to deal with him.
As he comes towards me, I raise Anugoptr into the air and summon a storm right above. Lightning thunders, as I focus on my magic, Gorr still falling towards me. As Gorr is about to land on me, completely healed and ready to attack, I bring the spear down with a snap.
My spear absorbs all the lightning from the skies above as it comes down, and cuts through the extended sword of Gorr, and through his shoulder, cutting his left arm clean off.
"AAARGHG!!" Gorr yells in pain, after losing his hand.
The lightning storm still above us, I call down a few bolts of Lightning straight on top of us. One by one, 9 Lightning bolts land on us, leaving me unharmed, but Gorr twitching, bordering on the realm of unconsciousness.
The All Black was still healing him though, so I once again raise Anugoptr and prepare to behead him to end this once and for all.
"How?" Gorr croaks out, and then asks a little clearer, "How does this planet still have Gods?! I made sure to kill every one of them!"
Hold up. I stab Anugoptr in Gorr's heart, once again stopping his healing.
"You killed the Gods of this planet? How long ago?" I ask, knowing that I'll regret this sooner or later.
Gorr chuckles, blood pouring out of his mouth, and says, "Thousands of years ago. Or is it millions? I don't know, time travel isn't something I'm used to yet."
"Explain." I order, removing my spear and stabbing it down once again, only this time, I twist it after.
And Gorr howls in pain again. He yells, "I WAS ALREADY IN THE PAST, DON'T KNOW HOW FAR! I saw this planet, felt it good enough for the centre of my empire, and I killed them all. Hundreds of Gods died by my hand, Theos, the Elder God! Just like you and your family will! If not now, then in the future. You will all die at Gorr's hands!"
It is only then, that I notice that my legs were completely black, having been infected by the All Black.
He bloody distracted me with the truth!
Surprisingly though, I don't feel the corruptive presence winning. Instead, I feel something else.
There was something in me, something too pure, but similar to the All Black, that was fighting the corruption. It wasn't my Cosmic Energy, nor is it my magic. It is just.. something else. And it was winning, while slowly getting stronger.
"What?! How are you not my Berserker yet?!" Gorr yells, terrified into shock, but still not able to get up, thanks to my spear pinning him down.
Smiling, I realize that my mother Madonna was still helping me, even thousands of years after her death.
Taking Anugoptr in my hands, I force my Lightning through it, and burn Gorr to a crisp, from the inside, listening to his sweet screams.
But, that's still not enough to kill him, no. The All Black is a tough nut to crack.
With the swing of my spear, I cut off his head, and create a portal to the sun above us. With the twitch of my hand, the head and body of Gorr fly through the portal, and into the centre of the sun, to burn for all eternity, or remain trapped.
And then, I suddenly find myself pacing back and forth, in the hallway outside Chhaya's room, along with Scathach. This.. is wrong. Why am I here?
Scathach was saying something, but I don't listen, my focus being on my body, which was entirely spotless. No scratches on my armour, no sweat permeating my body, and no blood covering my face from the many healed cuts I suffered at the hands of the All Black.
Even Scathach didn't have the scratches, or cuts in her clothes, that she had when the Black Berserkers attacked.
Panicking, I turn on my Echolocation, and look for everyone. Manasi and Vali were in the Throne Room, kissing quite scandalously, while Narfi was roaming around Andalok. Alone. Jormungandr was on Induk, floating safely in its skies.
"..os? THEOS!?" Scathach yells in my ear, finally making me turn to her. Seeing my wide eyed look, she asks, "Are you okay?"
I turn towards the room behind me, and try to use Echolocation, failing at it.
"What the fuck?!" I whisper, horrified over what had just happened.
Did I just dream all that? A Vision? No, I know when it's a vision. This… was not it.
"Theos? What happened? What's gotten you so scared? You know your child will be okay, right?" Scathach asks, putting her hand on my shoulder, and looking worried.
Turning back to her, I hold her by her shoulders, stare into her eyes, and say, "Scathach. You won't believe what kind of bullshit I've just been through."

Ya know while reading this story I was thinking "Why not send Mangog to deal with Gorr since he basically counters him?" which the MC even said about, then of course he talked about how he is a counter, but then I see that Gorr showed up.
On a side note, how was Theos able to beat Gorr so easily? Gorr is stupid powerful in the realm of Marvel, which Ik Theos is strong and if he used Cosmic/Power stone he'd wipe the floor of Gorr, but he just fought him straight up and won, so I'm curious. I get it was because of lack of experience with Elder Gods and that Theos is just really strong, but Gorr STILL managed to nearly win against 3 Thor's, I'm just curious.
Side note, OOOOH BOY, Time shenanigans!
EDIT: Also, the fuckin world building of ancient earth was fuckin fantastic. Didn't realize I didn't say that at all before posting, but this story is absolutely bitchin

I get it was because of lack of experience with Elder Gods and that Theos is just really strong, but Gorr STILL managed to nearly win against 3 Thor's, I'm just curious.
Side note, OOOOH BOY, Time shenanigans!
EDIT: Also, the fuckin world building of ancient earth was fuckin fantastic. Didn't realize I didn't say that at all before posting, but this story is absolutely bitchin

Mangog vs Gorr would definitely be an interesting match, although I do think that Gorr would win.
As for Gorr vs Theos, I admit I rushed a bit. I wanted them to fight for hours or something, and then Theos wins, idk why I didn't do that. My excuse for the quick fight is that,
1. Theos is an Elder God, definitely stronger than most Gods.
2. Gorr is still new at this.. relatively. Time Travel is involved, so idk how old he actually is, but that's nothing on the thousands of years that Theos has been alive, and overpowered. Later, when he gets stronger, gets more experience fighting stronger Gods, he won't be defeated this easy, but right now, he doesn't have much experience fighting someone of Theos's level.
Hope this clears it up, thank you!

Gorr wins, yeah I can see that. Mangog doesn't have the juice to really put Gorr down. Ty for that then
Ah yeah, more or less what I assumed then.
