I have to get lucky right away.

Chapter 554 Where did the pirate civilization get its spirit of sacrifice?
"Why? You still ask why?" The one-eyed old Odin stood up, his urgent tone causing his saliva to splash across the table, which was several meters across, onto the other side—

"Do you even know what's going on here?! Loki! Hela! Nidhogg! Sigurd fought him, and that was when warriors failed to slay the dragon, and those who donned armor and went to fight him were writing legends. But if you go, what will that be called? A battle in heaven!"

"You think I'll lose?" Odin frowned, a sense of humiliation and belittling making her stand up.

"Even if he didn't use his full strength in his fight against Sigurd, he still wouldn't be a match for me..."

"Is this about winning or losing?!"

Before the wise Odin could speak, the prophetic Odin interrupted, saying:

Even if you win, what will you do?

“If he knows what’s good for him, we’ll bring him back to join us; if he doesn’t, we’ll just kill him…” At this point, War Odin’s expression froze, realizing the seriousness of the situation.

Yes, we can't win this!

If they win, Odin defeats Loki; if they capture him, Loki is imprisoned, repeating the path of Ragnarok; if they kill him, his divine position is revealed. Those little bastards at Loki Academy, all lined up with their divine titles, have been playing the role for countless years. A vacant Loki position is practically gone in an instant. But Loki's position is a trinity, strongly linked to Nighad and even Ragnarok. Once he dons the armor, the only option is to kill him again and watch a new Loki ascend to the throne…

Killing them would be tantamount to killing all the elites in Loki Academy; not killing them would mean waiting for Ragnarok to be completed, and imprisoning the gods would be helping them put on their armor!
Thinking of this, Odin felt a toothache. Although he could gamble on the destruction and reconstruction after Ragnarok, the problem was that even the original myths had not taken this step. If they wanted to do so, they would have to write their own legend.

Is this story easy to write? Of course it is. All you have to do is avoid the heavens, gather a crew, and go down to the mortal realm to reenact the myth. But over the years, the number of gods in Asgard has increased, yet they have never succeeded. Is it because they don't know how to write it?

of course not!

The reason we're stuck here is because this process requires at least one team to be sacrificed and eliminated!
Minor gods are one thing, but which of those who might ascend to Odin's divine position would willingly die? Not to mention Odin, Tyr, Heimdall, Thor... and so on, how many of them would willingly die?

It's not that you can't be resurrected, since Valhalla wasn't really used much in Ragnarok. But first, you have to consider whether those bastards will resurrect you first or take the godhood created after the destruction.

Everyone knows what kind of pirate civilization is, so no one is willing to be the sacrifice, trading their own life for someone else's future. Asgard has been stuck in this limbo, just like its neighbor Olympus.

However, this newborn Loki, who does not belong to Asgard, has now become the switch that completely ignites this hidden danger.

Everyone knows they can't let things continue like this, but nobody wants to rush in themselves.

When Odin spoke during the war, everyone's first reaction was that it would be a good opportunity for him to fill the gaps, but this idea was immediately abandoned by all the Odins.

The reason is simple: they can't fight in the heavens, otherwise the entire Asgard would be dragged into Ragnarok, which is something that can't be solved by simply losing one group of warriors. But if they send Odin and Loki to the mortal realm, it would be too obvious.

A silence began to build in the Pantheon, but soon, Heimdall suddenly spoke:
"What if we throw away Loki's godhood?"

???

Perhaps because their thinking was too unified, the divine power in the Pantheon was activated, resulting in a large number of question marks.

Upon seeing this, Heimdall immediately explained:

“The other party does not belong to Asgard, which is an opportunity. Just as the power that could kill Jupiter could not kill Zeus, no matter how much he resembles Loki, as long as he does not belong to Asgard, he is just a god with the same name.”

"That's nothing but sophistry. He himself is on Asgardian soil, and his divine position is in the Pantheon. If we use the method of banishment, it might just repeat the story of banishing Loki from the tech world." Odin, the god of wisdom, shook his head. If it were really that easy, how could he, the god of wisdom, not have thought of it?
“What if we find someone to take over? Does that mean we put him in another pantheon? After all, this is one, no, three and a half god positions. Even if no one wants the half of Ragnarok, there are still the three god positions of the Goddess of Death, the God of Mischief, and the Dragon God!” Heimdall, who spoke, was someone who was pushed out by his seniors to take the blame. But it was precisely because he was young enough that he could come up with the idea of ​​giving strategic resources to outsiders.

But thinking about it carefully, it doesn't seem to make any mistakes...

"But to whom should it be given?" Although Odin was asking the question, he was already considering potential recipients.

My first thought was naturally to look to our neighbor, Olympus. After all, the two countries are evenly matched and have been neighbors for so many years, so they know each other very well.

But this idea was quickly abandoned. Sending a divine position over wasn't just about one or two gods; it was about an entire route.

In other words, if Olympus gets this line, they can add Loki to their mythology. Simply put, Olympus can also get a piece of the Netherworld that Asgard originally had to do with!

Originally, Olympus and Asgard maintained themselves by relying on their sufficiently closed systems and the small territory that no other party could interfere with. They couldn't compare to the developed roots of the major god systems, but fortunately, they had no competitors. However, if this line were opened up, they still couldn't touch the world of the Olympus system, but the Olympus system could touch their own world. Wouldn't that be courting death?
"It can't be Olympus, nor Celts; it must be completely different! Something incompatible with our mythological system!" Odin the Wise declared. Odin the Wild Hunt, upon hearing this, curled his lip in disapproval.
"People from completely different systems wouldn't even look down on your divine position!"

"..." That makes sense. Accepting a divine position is only for when it's useful; if it's not useful, who...?

"Wait a minute, there does seem to be one that is different from our system, but is willing to accept a divine position, and even if they do, they can't interfere with our system!"

Just then, after going through all the possible possibilities of Loki's godhood in all known pantheons, he finally found the only solution!
"Oh, who is it?" War Odin didn't think much of it and asked directly, while Prophecy Odin immediately uttered a name that was hated by everyone—

"Elysium System!"
