3 Chapter 3 Divinity

In the dining room of the palace the royal family that consisted of four were sitting at a large round table. The table was filled with food and drinks ranging from boar meat to fruits and drinks ranging from ale to nectar. Music was playing in the background and different maids could be seen bringing in different foods and drinks creating a very warm atmosphere in the room. The four members on the table were the King and Queen Odin and Frigga, the crown prince Baldur and the 14-year-old princess Hela.

''So how has your training been.'' asked Frigga as she warmly looked at her children. She really liked these moments time like these where she got to spend time with her children.

"I have already mastered what I could from my teacher. What I really need now is some experience." Baldur replied as he began to eat a piece of meat that was on his plate before drinking the nectar in his cup.

"I see what about you Hela." Frigga turned to her daughter.

"Same as always mother, I can already defeat the guards that sent my way but like always I cannot seem to defeat Baldur."

Odin was listening to the conversation that currently going on. He had shoulder length grey hair blue eyes and a neat, trimmed beat that has been groomed to perfection. He sat at the head table with his two ravens Hunin and Munin seating on his chair. Next to his feet were his two wolves Gerri and Freki. He pieces of meat from the table before he put in on the floor for his wolves to eat.

He then looked back at his children with eyes that were filled with pride, over the years his seen his children grow up into strong and capable warriors and leaders. He seen Baldur strength and wisdom as he completed any assignments and test given to him in record time while completing it perfectly. His seen Hela loyalty especially to Baldur and talent in battle as she ruthless beat down any who she faced against or looked at his brother wrongly.

As Baldur, Frigga and Hela were talking they were interrupted by the sound of someone clearing their throats. They stopped talking and looked toward the head of the table to their father.

Odin then pensively looked at both Baldur and Hela with his sharp blue eyes for a long couple of seconds before speaking in a quietly in a soft voice that could be heard through the whole room.

'Ever since he obtained the mead of poetry from Bragi his acting all dramatic and mysterious. At least his not speaking poetry like he did in the first few months when he obtained it' thought Baldur.

'Why do I feel that this brat has suddenly insulted me' Odin thought as he suddenly turned and looked at Baldur with narrowed blue eyes.

Baldur suddenly felt the pressure increase around him. Balder looked back at his father with the same narrowed eyes as the two began to clash their wills against each other. That caused the air to begin to heat up and the ground to begin shaking.

Hela looked at her brother with excitement and awe whilst Frigga looked at the father and son duo at the side could only sigh at this while shaking. This is not the first time this has happened these two are very stubborn individual that are always clashing with each despite the love and respect the have for each other.

Odin sighs as he let goes of his will and the floor stops shaking. Balder follows after his father stopping the heat in the room from rising. He looks at his father with a smug smile on his face and as he turns to speak to Hela. He suddenly gets blasted out of his chair by a beam of energy. He gets up from his chair and scowls at his father who now has a smug look on his face.

"Hmm, you have both grown in strength and are of age to test for your divinity. After you finish eating meet me in the palace garden." With that he stood up and began walking out of the dining room and towards the garden

Hela looked at Baldur with face filled with nervousness and excitement. Happy that they are finally going to be tested for the divinity and become full gods. Frigga looked at both of her children and smiled remembering when she had to test for her divinity, and she could not wait to see the divinity her children would get.

Arriving in the palace garden were Baldur, Hela, and Frigga. The garden was beautiful with different plants, flowers, and herbs of mystical nature. It was a scared place that only the royal family were allowed to enter. The walk past all the different trees and plants and headed to the centre of the forest like garden. Where in the middle stood a massive tree that had runes written all over the trunk that seemed to be moving every seconds never staying in the same place causing him to have a headache just looking at them.

Standing sitting next to the tree was his father that was dressed in a grey robe with long grey beard and hair. He looked like a copy of Gandalf the grey from Lord of the rings. He even had the wizard hat and his spear had become the staff that Gandalf usually had.

Balder wanted to ask why he was dressed like that but second letter he decided not to. This is not the weirdest thing his seen his father do.

Odin looks at his son and daughter with a serious look while stroking him beard with his hand before then turning back to the massive tree next to him.

''The tree beside you is a piece of the World Tree Yggdrasill. Both of you go place you hands on the tree and when you do you will be transported to place where you would be tested for your divinities.'' He said while looking at the moving runes on the tree.

''When you reach that place all you will have is sit down and meditate and your divinities would come to you after that you only have to absorb them within yourselves''.

Balder and Hela looked at each before he took the lead as he went up to the tree and put his hand on it. Hela followed behind him and did as he had done. When both of their hands were on the tree the runes began to grow gold and before he knew it he was enveloped in golden light and had appeared in what happened to be the centre of the universe

He looked around and all he could see were different universes that together looked to in the shape of the world tree. Baldur sat down and began meditating trying to feel for his divinities and after what felt like years. He began to feel ten orbs of power revolving around him and one by one the began to get absorbed into him.

The orbs represented his divinity over the sun, life, death, time, space, wisdom, magic, runes, light, strength, and love. Then when he absorbed it, he felt like something that had been missing had been returned.

Outside Hela and Baldur had returned after getting their divinities and were currently sitting down on the ground trying to fully assimilate and stabilize their new divinities.

Odin and Frigga looked at their children and could feel the power coming off the both of them especially the potency and power that surrounded their eldest son Balder that caused the very ground to shake and heat begin to rise as he was surrounded by flames.

Baldur felt that the Kryptonian power that he got from superman awaken and when it did, he never felt so alive. His blonde hair began to glow golden with light and his blue eyes had become golden like the very sun. The upper body was exposed and was covered with white tattoos in the shape of the sun. flames surrounded him and he his senses increased to the point that he could he all the voices of people speaking in Asgard.

Baldur dropped on his knees with the exposure to the new stimulus and wanted to scream out but was able to calm down because of his training in Asgard over the years and was able to fully control his powers quickly getting them back under control. As the body continued to absorb sun light his strength and endurance was also increased.

He looked to left and right and saw his mother and sister beside him looking at him worriedly.

''How are you doing Baldur.'' Asked his mother.

''Brother are you alright.'' Hela echoed worriedly.

''I am fine, I was just caught off guard with the exposure to the new stimulus due to my powers'' he relied calmly with a smile on his handsome face.

''Hmm the domains that you got seems to be really powerful. What divinities did both of you get'' asked Odin as he looked at both Baldur and Hela in contemplation.

''I am now Hela the goddess of death, magic, darkness.'' When Hela said this the whole of Asgard began to shake as the sky was covered in darkness. And magic could be felt in the very air, the darkness then came from the sky and surrounded Hela as she was baptised by Yggdrasil a new goddess.

He could feel her strength increase as she could also an immensely powerful connection to magic, death, and the very darkness itself like they were her very limbs.

'So, this is how it feels like to be a true goddess' she thought. She was interrupted from her thoughts as her brother stepped forwards and spoke in a very calm and soft voice that contained so much power.

''I AM BALDUR GOD OF SUN, LIFE, DEATH, TIME, SPACE, WISDOM, MAGIC, LIGHT, STRENGTH, LOVE AND RUNES'' he declared

When Baldur announced himself as a new god time itself seemed to stop and all around the nine realms as the sky itself became golden every god in the nine-realm stopped what them were doing as they looked at the golden sky looking towards where Asgard was located. Golden Particles of light began dropping down from the sky and every they dropped new life began to flourish and each individual they touched they were able to feel the love coming from them.

A huge been of light then dropped from the sky and surrounded Baldur as he found himself getting baptise. He felt a deep connection to his new domains and instinctively new how to use them and felt him self get stronger by several folds. When the light disappeared, he found himself wearing cloths similar to the one that superman was wearing in man of steel but instead of the 'S' on his chest his was in the shape of a sun within the centre of the sun was a symbol of a phoenix that looked to be rising from its ashes.

He had shoulder length golden hair and golden sun like eyes. He had a faint glow that seemed to come off of him with a majestic air that made him look like a king. As he was floating in the air with his red cape and hair bellowing in the wind

'This is interesting.' he thought with a calm smile as he clenched his fist feeling power thump within his veins. He calmed down and landed back on the ground and when he did the golden sky that had propped up all over the nine realms when he declared his ascension began changing back to its normal blue.
