——————————————————————————————-

Setting up a base of operations was harder than I originally thought it was going to be. This particular task had a lot of… difficulties to it, amongst them was finding a place to host hundreds of kids and then setting on protecting measures to avoid Zeus frying the kids to hell.

Which is why I decided to scout around the planet to find a good location to start working on it, at least that was my initial plan, because as I was flying about the globe, I felt something… something that momentarily got my full attention. It was… odd, not a good odd, but not a bad odd either, it was… I guess the best way to describe was to say it was vexing, around the world there were many locations with magical signatures that were quite unique and yet oddly familiar.

"Why didn't I notice this before," I muttered to myself in mild disbelief. Had I been so blind before that I hadn't noticed this? Then again I suppose the answer was I never had to extend my senses this far, ever had a reason, "Haha, and just like that I am curious about it," I chuckled, wondering what were those locations, none of them felt like anything I was used to, and yet I felt I knew the answer, what a perplexing mystery, one that it would have to wait until I found a good location to bring the gods I have somehow recruited.

So shaking that thought out of my head… for now, I refocused my full attention on finding a good place to host my revolution, which was not gonna lie… I was starting to see it was borderline impossible…. every country had a pantheon of their own, gods that ruled that territory making it hard to just come and say this is mine now, so perhaps it was best if I did like Odín, and started my base in another realm.

There was also the option of hosting all of the kids and their godly parents in Asgard for the duration of the revolution. After all, Odín did say he was going to help me to the best of his ability, and that was within his power… but as Athena had said before I embarked on this journey, it was best to at least try to find my a place of our own to build our base, and while I didn't fully trust Athena with anything just yet, she was somewhat right, it didn't cost me anything to try and get the place.

Knowing full well Odín and his kingdom were always an option should I fail to secure a location for myself, I decided expand my search of a base location to other realms, and with that idea in hand, I decided it was best to consult Thor about my current dilemma, and while yes I knew he wasn't the smartest person I knew, his opinion would most than usually lead to interesting developments.

Thor was more than eager to help, and was elated that I had come to him instead of Odín first, as if me coming to him, proved I trusted him more than anyone else on his pantheon, which in all honesty was quite accurate considering I trusted Odín but it to the same extent. I knew the Norde King viewed more as a political ally than a friend like Thor does, regardless of that I still trusted him, just not on the same level I trusted his son, which made Thor immensely happy. Our conversation about my dilemma was brief and to the point, but it helped me a lot.

Thor suggested something I had been thinking about before coming to him, an idea that I had pushed behind in my list of things to do, one that sounded far fetched but in reality was a very viable option now, creating a new realm. This was magically very possible, I mean… Olympus is a magical realm where the Greek gods reside, so in theory it was more than possible, the hard part actually making this idea a reality, my Magic as of now all revolved around combat or low level reality warping, so while no doubt I had the power to do so, I didn't have required knowledge… which kicked me back to Odín, the best of the best in this field of expertise, not only because of his extensive Magic knowledge, but because he himself had created a realm, the shadow of Midgard, that now basically served as a prison to hold the big boi known as Orochidamn.

With that said and done I teleported back to Asgard where I found Odin waiting for me with a rather smug smile adorning his face, his entire aura basically said… I knew you would come to ask me how to solve your problem, sometimes he behaves like a big overpowered child. One that is usually correct, taking a deep breath, I proceeded to explain the Smug Norse King what I wanted.

"So… let me see if I get this straight…" Odin hummed, his eyes narrowing for a brief moment, "You want to create a magical realm where your allies can reside… right?" At this I nodded, "Sure why not, that's a solution as good as any," the Norse King shrugged.

"So… any ideas where to start?" I asked him, as curiosity started to surge within me. It was not like him at all to be so nonchalant with his answers, normally he would usually ask for something in exchange for his help, be it small or big that depended of his mood, but I was not going to remind him of that, I take what I can and if that is free I am happy, of course, this didn't mean I wasn't curious as to why he wasn't asking for something right now.

"Well," Odin sighed putting his index finger on his beard, "Kill something big… and use its biomass and Magic to create what you want… that's what I did…"

"Something big…." Ain't that helpful… "Does a… I don't know... a God… would do the trick, a minor god for example?"

"Hmmm, well… the stronger the being you select to be your sacrifice the bigger your realm will be… for example, in my case I killed Ymir and well… with his body I created a replica of Midgard," Odin answered, "What God did you have in mind?" he inquired.

"Nobody anyone would miss," I answered in a rather cold tone, heck it even surprised me… weird.

"Priapus got it," Odin snorted… how the fuck did… don't question it Adam… "His power alone should be enough sacrifice to give you a realm of decent proportions, maybe of the size of a big city."

"Good," Priapus was already in my list of shitty people to kill, his death giving me something was just a bonus.
