IMUC Chapter 475 Odin Summons

Tony and Peter's first team-up ended in failure, but it couldn't be helped, since their opponent was Kyle.

With Kyle's complete mastery of the Double Star Form, there were few in the entire Marvel Universe, let alone on Earth, who could truly rival him.

Even though Kyle used only one-tenth of his strength, his fighting skills were not easily matched.

Tony took off his Iron Man suit, wiped the sweat from his brow, and suggested, "Godfather, why don't you stay for dinner? I'll have Pepper fix you something."

At the mention of Pepper, Kyle's eyes fell on Tony. He suddenly asked, "You two haven't gotten married yet? Didn't you say you'd get married when you found your father?"

Raina smiled softly after hearing this.

Peter, still a child, stood there with a clueless expression, not daring to speak in this manner.

"Uh."

Tony was completely taken aback by the question and scratched his nose awkwardly. His godfather had urged him to get married more than once or twice, and this time he brought it up in front of Peter.

He could only reply sheepishly, "Well, I just got back to Earth... There are a lot of things to take care of with Stark Industries and my father. Pepper and I have talked about it, and we're definitely getting married, hopefully within a year or two."

"That's good. But since you're not married yet, I won't be staying for dinner. Invite me when you get married."

Kyle waved goodbye and started downstairs, with Raina following as they left the rooftop.

"Take care, Godfather," Tony said without much urging.

Just as Kyle was about to step off the roof, he suddenly stopped. Raina seemed to sense something, looked up at the sky, and her beautiful face became extremely serious.

"Godfather, what's wrong?" Tony clearly noticed her unusual behavior.

Kyle put his finger to his lips, signaling for everyone to be quiet, and then asked in an unknown direction, "Heimdall? What's going on? Why are you looking for me?"

The voice of Heimdall, the Guardian of the Asgardian Realm, came from the distant stars and murmured in Kyle's ear, "Guardian Kyle, His Majesty wishes to see you.

"Odin? Wants to see me?"

Kyle looked surprised. After a moment of thought he asked, "When?"

Heimdall replied quickly, "Immediately! Find an open space, and I'll bring you over with Bifrost."

"All right, I'm free anyway."

Kyle shrugged casually, then turned to Raina and instructed, "You go back alone first. I have to take care of something in Asgard."

"Boss, take care," Raina nodded.

Kyle exhaled, walked back to the open space on the roof, and looked up at the cloudy sky. As if answering his call, a blinding beam of light descended from the sky and enveloped his tall frame.

In the blink of an eye.

Kyle vanished from the top of Stark Tower, leaving only a scorched runic imprint behind. Having seen this unique way of traveling to Asgard before, Raina and Tony were fine, but young Peter was left with his mouth agape, his perceptions constantly challenged.

"Mr. Stark, Mr. Kyle... where did he go?" The usually loquacious Peter asked weakly, stuttering slightly.

"Where else? He went up," Tony replied matter-of-factly, still looking up at the sky.

The Bifrost crossed the Nine Realms and the limitless stars. With a slight sense of spatial displacement, Kyle arrived at the Rainbow Bridge, the gateway to Asgard.

Heimdall, dressed in gold armor and holding a silver sword, bowed slightly to greet him, "Guardian, welcome. His Majesty awaits you in the palace hall."

Kyle looked around, seeing no one else at the gate, and asked, "Where's Thor? As the host, why hasn't he come to greet me this time?"

Heimdall said, "The convergence of the Nine Realms is imminent, and there is constant conflict on the borders. Thor has just left to assist the Vanaheim region.

"Looks like it's not just Earth that's having a hard time," Kyle said, shaking his head slightly. He activated his double star form and his body floated off the ground, enveloped in radiant energy. Then he flew along the solid Bifrost towards the golden palace.

Inside the palace hall.

Having been here before, Kyle didn't need any guidance and found his way easily. When he entered the large and empty hall, he saw a lonely, old king sitting on the throne, his right eye covered with a patch and his clouded left eye watching his arrival.

The King of the Asgardian Gods, the ruler of the Nine Realms, the Lord of Asgard, and Thor's father- Odin.

Kyle deactivated his double star form and landed lightly in the hall, raising his eyes naturally and calmly to meet Odin's.

The last time Kyle had seen Odin, he was a new god, having just acquired the power of the God of Fire. He had been quite cautious and somewhat afraid of this king.

But this time.

Kyle had gained new powers that transcended the gods, becoming a formidable force in the Galaxy. Now, even in the presence of the King of the Gods, Odin, he felt no fear or intimidation.

Odin, sitting on his throne, held his scepter and looked down, and said, "Indeed! Kyle, your strength has grown much since the last time I saw you.

"Having seen the mountains that block my path, I always strive to overcome them," Kyle replied with a faint smile. Looking at Odin, he added: "But Your Majesty, I don't know if it's my imagination or my increased strength, but you seem weaker than a few years ago.

Fortunately, there was no one else in the palace hall, otherwise Kyle's last remark would have caused a stir in Asgard.

Odin, weaker?

Apart from Kyle, no one would dare say such a thing to Odin's face. Even if Odin were weaker, a dying camel is still bigger than a horse; all living things would still be mere ants before him.

But Odin didn't care. He leaned back on his throne and said wearily, "I am old. Even gods age and grow old and weak.

The god-king who had ruled the Nine Realms for millions of years had finally reached the end of his days...

Will I also face such a day?

Kyle felt a mix of emotions as he thought of this, but spoke up, "Your Majesty, you summoned me for a reason, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't have summoned me while Thor is away."

"Yes, I summoned you for two things."

Odin nodded, "The first thing concerns Loki and Thor."

As soon as Odin began to speak, Kyle had already guessed what he would speak. No matter how powerful Odin had been in his youth, in his old age he was still a white-haired father who cared first and foremost for his children.

Odin said softly, in a tone that seemed like he was making a will, "Loki's invasion of your home, Earth, was my failure to teach him. As a father, I should apologize to you and the people of Earth. But this has nothing to do with Thor. He will soon inherit my throne and become the new king of Asgard. When that time comes, I hope you can..."

Kyle understood his meaning and said directly, "I know. Thor is my friend too. If he becomes the god-king, I'll help him as much as I can."

"Good, Good, Good."

Odin said "good" several times, his face full of relief and gratitude. He seemed really tired and wanted to rest.

From that moment on.

Kyle knew that the supreme god-king of the Nine Realms was no more. The figure on the throne was now just an old, frail god.
