The Coming Threat.

[ Asgard, Nine Realms ]

"How do you feel, Son?" Odin asked while looking at the starry night sky. He could see the endless pure manifestation of night divinity in the sky. 

He could feel the night sky's enormous power. His son, if he wanted, could make most people fall into eternal sleep. This is permanent sleep with no chance of ever waking up. In a sense, this fate is more cruel than death, as the soul will never get to leave the body when they are under eternal sleep.

So, one can imagine how much power his son already possesses. But, even still, he is far from strong compared to the other beings in the universe.

"I am fine, Father." Sasrir replied with a smile. He didn't really trust his father at first, considering what he did in the movie to Hela. 

But, actually, reality was much different than fiction. He noticed father had a genuine care and affection for both of us, which made him drop his guard a little bit.

Odin now didn't wear his mighty armour like before, but, just simple white robes. He sat in the bed near him. He looked at him with his almighty eye that held concern and care.

"Your divinity awakening and position as god of darkness is already announced in asgard." Odin said the news that he personally announced. He then paused for a moment and continued on to another topic.

"Every heir of royal lineage has the right to choose a weapon from the royal treasury." Odin said, while observing his son's reaction, which was indifferent as always.

'He is really good at hiding his emotions.' Odin thought with a headache, but still, as a father, he still knew his son liked the customized things especially made for him.

"Or else, you can take your sister and go to Nidavellir and ask the dwarves to craft you a special weapon that suits your divinity at the moment." Odin said causally, as if he hadn't thought about the refusal of the dwarves. 

The nine realms are actually independent now, as Odin has not yet begun his conquering over them.

And, the nine realms, to be exact, are not nine planets like shown in the movie, but it's actually nine galaxies.

So, the nine realms will actually be a proper cosmic empire, if it's unified in the future.

And Asgard is not just a small continent, it's very large in its size. Its surface area exceeds many times that of earth. The concept of distance and space of the continent is manipulated by his father. So, it makes one feel the illusion that Asgard really has no ending and is infinite in its size.

The number of Asgardians is more numerous than shown in the movie, which made him feel ridiculous when he actually thought about the difference between reality and fiction.

There are millions of Asgardians living on this continent. They also have various other planets under the rule of Asgard with the help of the countless powerful warriors and valkyries.

"Father, do you really think that the arrogant dwarves will especially craft a weapon for their future enemy?" Sasrir emphasized, as the balance of the nine realms would soon be broken. The other races can also see the coming of war. Under these circumstances, which race is stupid enough to provide service to their possible enemy of the future?

"You don't worry. The little dwarf king, borin, will definitely give face to the son of Odin." Odin said without much emotion, as the dwarfs were a race that were not specialized in war and all he needed was to find the right opportunity, to make them surrender and be loyal to Asgard.

Then, Odin didn't have to worry about the weapons and equipment supplies anymore for the rest of the upcoming war.

 "Okay, Father." Sasrir didn't say much anymore, knowing well of his father's character, but before his father could speak further.

Various pictures appeared in both of their minds, they depicted a gigantic phoenix that had brought destruction to even galaxies in its wake. Now, the phoenix's path had changed and was heading towards the nine realms.

"Fuck" Sasrir cursed out loud, when he saw the coming of such danger through his cosmic awareness. The power of this phoenix is too high for him now.  If it entered the nine realms, then that would just be a literal calamity for all.

He simply didn't expect such things to happen, this event pushed everything to another level now. 

He immediately looked up to see his father face, which was calm as always.. He can fell that his father must have also received the pictures just now. He may fell more and even know about the cause and effect of this incident through his cosmic awareness.

"You don't have to worry about this, Son. There still lot of time before the phoenix actually arrives. So, we have time to prepare for this coming threat." Odin said with calm face, even when he knew such a threat will soon befall on them.

Sasrir sighed, as he saw the calmness of his father, even under this situation. He still need to learn a lot from his father.

"Take rest, Son. I need to deal with the things to related to the coming new threat and withinhin this month, Hela will take you to the Nidavellir." Odin said, as he ended thier conversation due the interpretation. Then, he made his way to exit and finally leaving sasrir alone.

Sasrir didn't actually take rest, as he looked at window, where there flew a peculiar blue sparrow with a message attached to its tiny legs.

He waved, as the sparrows flew inside and landed on his hand and then, he took the message attached to it and let its fly.

"Tavern, tomorrow, celebration,

-Brunhilde."

'Idiot.' Sasrir smirked when he read the coded message from his friend.

The next day.

In a corner of asgard, Sasrir walked without any problems, as he was invisible to the surrounding people, due to power of concealment. 

He came to bar in the commercial street where all entertainments were present. He didn't bother to look around. As, he went directly to the tavern in the middle of the street.

Sasrir pushed the door open, as he removed the concealment on him.

Before he could, he sees what's inside. A shadow flashed before him, as he immediately felt a hand on his shoulder, which pulled him in. He didn't  resist, as he knew who that was.

​"The great god of darkness is finally here." A black-haired woman shouted loudly with a voice that shook the tavern itself, while a holding a cup of beer in her hand, her declaration caused the people in the tavern to burst into cheers.
