Marvel: Saint Seiya Starting with the Reality Stone.

The clouds began to spiral inwards towards the center, and in the blink of an eye, they formed a huge, slowly rotating vortex that began to spread outwards.

Several spatial rifts suddenly appeared on the ice surface.

These cracks revealed different colors of light, some resembling the dark red of hellish lava, and others the deep blue of the deep sea.

And mirages appeared in these cracks of different colors.

The golden palace of Asgard appeared from a crack.

The damaged version.

After all, not long ago, the dark elf Malekith led an attack on Asgard, killing Asgard's queen Frigga and destroying Asgard's golden palace.

In another crack was Muspelheim, burning with raging flames.

This is the so-called kingdom of the fire giants.

A sudden gust of cold wind swept across the Arctic ice cap.

The cold wind whistled through these cracks, making a low, drawn-out wail, as if the nine realms were breathing in unison at this very moment.

The moment the cold wind brushed past Mike's nose.

Mike could also smell the sorrowful aura of Asgard, the strong sulfur smell of the fire giants' kingdom, and the endless deathly silence of the dark elves' kingdom.

Just then.

Mike raised an eyebrow, looking at the sky that had suddenly appeared deep within the firmament.

A beam of seven-colored light shot down from the sky and crashed straight down onto the Arctic ice cap, about one kilometer away from Mike.

The moment the colorful beam of light touched the ice cap, the entire ice cap trembled violently.

A perfectly circular scorch mark, etched with countless intricate runes, was left on the ice cap.

next second.

A roar, accompanied by flashes of blue electricity, emanated from the center of the scorch marks where the seven-colored beam of light had not yet dissipated.

The voice was deep!

"Malekith, come out and face your death!"

"boom!"

With a deep, painful roar, Thor leaped high into the air, Mjolnir in hand.

The visitor was none other than Thor, who had been searching for Malekith in the Dark Elf kingdom without success, and who, upon hearing Heimdall's message, sensed Malekith's presence on Earth. He then asked Heimdall to use the Bifrost to teleport Malekith here.

Then--

He saw Mike, and while he was stunned for a moment, he instantly changed the direction of Thor's hammer in his hand and swung it toward Mike's side.

Countless bolts of lightning, like water snakes, struck the ice cap, instantly shattering it and sending snow and ice fragments flying into the air.

From the appearance of the seven-colored beam of light to Thor's attack, and even as countless bolts of lightning exploded around him, Mike stood motionless.

With a thud.

Thor landed in front of Mike, his brows furrowing slightly.

"Who are you? Where is Malekith?"

"..."

Mike didn't answer Thor's question, but instead looked at the crack that was gradually shrinking over time, projecting the image of the Golden Palace of Asgard.

He was considering whether to take advantage of this brief window of opportunity to run to the land of Asgard, find Loki who was just imprisoned by Asgard, twist off Loki's head, and send it to the grave of his adoptive parents.

Mike changed his mind and took up his second incarnation as a Saint because Loki killed his adoptive parents.

But he's not stupid either.

At this time, Odin, the king of the gods, was still in Asgard.

Even when Malekith the Dark Elf attacked Asgard, he first had his people launch a feint attack to lure Odin away before breaking into Asgard's golden palace.

Malekith was well aware that even in his prime, with the Reality Stone at his peak, he couldn't defeat the God King Bohr back then, let alone himself who had just awakened from his slumber and hadn't yet obtained the Reality Stone.

and so--

If Malekith was like this, then Mike naturally needs no further explanation.

Don't be fooled by the fact that he just killed Malekith; that was only possible because he had just unleashed his full cosmos.

If he were to go to Asgard now, there would only be one outcome.

He probably didn't even get to see Loki's face before Odin pierced him through the heart with his Spear of Destiny, a spear that always draws blood.

That's it.

He had already waited for more than a year, so he didn't mind waiting a little longer.

Once he awakens his sixth sense and becomes a true Saint, and Odin dies, no one will be able to protect Loki anymore.

Just as he had told Malekith before.

If Malekith doesn't covet his Reality Stone, then as enemies of enemies, they can be friends.

The same will happen after Odin dies.

Once Odin dies, he will no longer be able to maintain the barrier that seals his eldest daughter, Hela, the goddess of death.

Perhaps we can form an alliance with Hela, the goddess of death, at that time.

Mike thought to himself, then looked away and glanced at Thor, who was saying that Loki was a fake brother but was protecting him more than anyone else. He said calmly, "What difference is there between what Malekith did in Asgard and what Loki did on Earth last year? But Loki was only put in solitary confinement, while you want to kill Malekith."

No?

Is there any fundamental difference between Malekith's attack on Asgard and his killing of Frigga, the Queen of Gods, and Loki's actions on Earth last year?

No.

one more time.

It's just double standards.

Thor was taken aback by Mike's words. Looking at Mike's indifferent expression, he spoke in a low voice.

"Who exactly are you?"

"Loki killed my parents."

Mike had no intention of abandoning his enemy in order to become friends with Thor, nor did he try to hide his thoughts. Looking at Thor in front of him, he said, "Who do you think I am?"

Upon hearing Mike's words, Thor thought of what Loki had done on Earth last year.

"The Chitauri invasion."

"That's right!"

13. Those who stand in my way of revenge, die!

"Yes."

"The Chitauri invasion."

"But there's something you're wrong about."

"what?"

On the Arctic ice cap, Mike and Thor stand face to face.

Mike glanced at Thor's grip on his hammer out of the corner of his eye, then looked at Thor in front of him: "My parents didn't die at the hands of the Chitauri, but at the hands of Loki."

His original intention was to leave New York City with his adoptive parents to avoid the potential crisis of the Battle of New York.

Unexpectedly...

Although his half-sister Heidi, who rushed back from Washington, D.C., didn't say anything after his adoptive parents passed away, he couldn't help but think about one thing.

That is, if he had let things take their course instead of calling his adoptive parents to Jersey City, would his adoptive parents have not died?

of course.

Mike knew he might never know the answer to that question.

The only thing he knew was that his adoptive parents had died at Loki's hands, and the only certainty he had was that he would kill Loki and then take Loki's head to his adoptive parents' graves to pay his respects.

Thor frowned slightly as he listened to Mike's calm voice: "Loki has received his due punishment; he will be imprisoned in Asgard forever."

He was actually a little guilty when he said that.

Because Loki is not currently in the Asgardian dungeons; he is in the realm of the Dark Elves, being guarded by the Warriors Three.

But it is not important.

Regardless of the circumstances, Loki is one of Asgardians, and how to punish him is an internal matter for Asgard.

"But didn't you come here to kill Malekith?"

Mike's expression didn't change much. After Thor said that Loki had been punished, he immediately asked, "Then why did you kill Malekith? Just because Malekith killed your mother? You could have imprisoned Malekith like you did Loki, who killed many Earthling mothers, instead of killing him."

Upon hearing this, Thor's face darkened, and he fell silent.

Upon seeing this, Mike let out a cold laugh without any attempt to hide it.

"What, you're silent when faced with a difficult question?"

"Who exactly are you?"

"Someone who wants to kill Loki to avenge his mother, just like you wanted to kill Malekith."

Mjolnir, Thor's hammer, was once again gripped tightly in Thor's hand.

Thor stared intently at Mike, who was saying he wanted to kill Loki, and his voice lowered once more.

“Loki is one of us in Asgard, and his mistakes can only be judged by us in Asgard.”

"is it?"

Upon hearing Thor's words, Mike completely lost interest in talking to him. He chuckled twice and glanced at Thor: "Then we'll see. Anyone who tries to stop me from avenging my parents will die, including you, Thor Odinson."

He has no conflict with Thor.

However, if Thor were to intervene when Loki is about to kill him to avenge his adoptive parents, then Thor would become his enemy.
