"Welcome back Honey." Aelsa also looked back at King and said with a soft smile on her face.

"And these lovely ladies are?" Aelsa then looked behind King and found the three of Emma, Jean and Ororo.

"These are my wives, Jean Grey, Ororo Munroe and Emma Frost. They have been through a lot with me. Oh and How can I forget the little cat laying on my head, Bast." King suddenly felt Bast pulling his hair and hurriedly included her in the introduction as well.

"Mom!" Elaine didn't wait for them to finish introduction and just ran to Aelsa before jumping up and hugging her like a vice.

"Welcome back Dear, How have you been?" Aelsa calmly stroked Elaine's back and asked with a smile:

"I enjoyed the life in Midgard a lot. There are so many new delicacies and so many things to see." Elaine went on a rant and talked about what she saw in the recent years.

The ministers and guards very conscientiously left the throne room and allowed the family to get together peacefully.

King also moved forward and came to Aelsa with a smile. Aelsa smiled and opened her arm to hug King in her arms as well.

She just feels peaceful with these small interactions and King didn't back down either. He calmly hugged her back with a smile.

"Mom." Diane and Freyja also called sweetly and came to embrace Aelsa together.

Aelsa has taken care of them for more years than their own family. So Aelsa is more of a mother to them than their own families.

Diane doesn't even have a family and never bothered to look for her parents either. So she was content like this.

Freyja also goes back to Vanaheim regularly to visit her parents from time to time. She doesn't forget to visit every two to three years.

"M-mom?" The other girls looked at Aelsa and Jean called out hesitantly. Ororo was pretty much the same as Jean while Emma was calm and collected.

Bast was totally uninterested in this and was sleeping peacefully on King's head like it was the best bed in the world.

"Come here." Aelsa smiled at them softly and beckoned them with her hand.

The girls hesitantly walked over and Aelsa patted each of Emma, Jean, Ororo and Bast's heads. Bast had also turned into a human form.

King urged her in his mind or she would've lazily kept laying on his head like before and wouldn't move at all.

All four of them glowed suddenly and felt a mysterious power enter their bodies and looked at Aelsa inquiringly.

"Just left a mark in you. This will help you in coming in and going out of Alfheim. No one in Alfheim can harm you." Aelsa said with a smile and the girls smiled happily as well.

"Thank you." The girls thanked her and then returned back to the rest of the group.

Bast was in her usual place and the rest of the girls also started chatting with each other fiercely like they had a lot to talk about.

"Alright, let's have some dinner and then we'll talk." Aelsa stood up from the throne and said to everyone there.

"Okay Mom." King nodded his head and started walking to the dining hall eagerly. He hasn't had Alfheim's food in a while and he is eager.

The table was fully set up by the time they went to the dining hall and the food was exuding a piping hot aroma.

Just then, a portal opened and a familiar black haired beauty walked in with a cold face. As soon as she stepped into the hall, her coldness had a small smile.

"Hela." King called her with a smile and Hela came forward to give King a hug and a kiss. Then went ahead to give everyone a hug and rub Lopt's head.

"Woof." Lopt lifted his paw to give Hela a greeting and continued to his place for food.

He had his juicy steak ready on a large platter like they slaughtered a whole bison for this guy to eat and all of it was dumped on it.

King and the others also sat down on the table to enjoy the lavish feast of various delicacies of Alfheim.

'This dinner is even better since there are a total of eight women surrounding me like an emperor.' King thought in his mind and ate the food with gusto.

All the girls turned to look at him inquiringly when they felt something but then just continued eating their own food when they saw him just eating his food.

After the food, it was finally time to talk like Aelsa said to them and led them to a wider living room. All of them sat down on the couches and looked at King.

"What? Mom called us. She should start." King looked back at them like it's none of his business and replied.

"I called you here to ask how many girls do you have as your wives already?" Aelsa started the thing with an explosive topic.

"Um, the ones you see in front of you are confirmed and the rest I can't say about all of them." King shook his head seriously and denied the answer.

Some of them have been with him but they still haven't given him a clear answer. So he will never force them unless they agree.

"I see." Aelsa nodded her head and stopped talking about it.

"When are you going to take over Alfheim? I want to retire and look after some grandchildren." Then she immediately changed the topic with a smile and continued.

"I have no plans of that for now but in about a hundred years should be fine." King shook his head and answered back with a small smile.

"That's not long. So we can wait that long. What about you girls? Are you ready to serve as Queens?" Aelsa looked at the seven girls with their own unique personalities and asked them.

"I am ready." Freyja spoke up with a very confident face and said regally.
