The Witcher: The Journey to Transcendence from Marvel...

Chapter 209 Farewell

The sounds of laughter and the clinking of glasses blended together to create a joyful symphony.

But Wes was filled with doubt; he didn't understand why Frigga wanted to take him away at this time.

They walked along the quiet corridor, their footsteps echoing through the empty palace.

Ancient paintings hang on the walls along the corridor, telling the story of Asgard's glorious history.

Wes's gaze was frequently drawn to the paintings, but his mind remained preoccupied with Frigga's actions.

Finally, they arrived at Odin's palace. This magnificent palace exuded an aura of majesty, with towering pillars that seemed to support the entire sky.

Wes looked around, his doubts growing stronger.

Just as he was about to ask a question, Frigga lowered her head slightly, her expression solemn, and then slowly took out a hexagonal box.

The box looked very exquisite, with every edge polished extremely smooth.

The box is engraved with mysterious runes, those ancient symbols like dancing musical notes.

Wes's gaze was instantly drawn to the box.

His heart was filled with curiosity, wondering what secrets the box held—a powerful weapon? Or a mysterious magical artifact?

Frigga softly chanted the incantation, which echoed in the air like a melodious tune.

As the incantation was recited, the mechanisms on the box opened one by one, emitting a soft "click-click" sound.

The opening of each mechanism is like unveiling a mysterious veil, making one's heart beat faster involuntarily.

When the final mechanism was opened, the dazzling Reality Gem was revealed.

The gemstone radiated a dazzling light.

Wes was deeply captivated by the Reality Stone, and despite already possessing the Mind Stone, its allure remained irresistible.

Frigga closed the box gently, her movements careful.

"???" Wes looked puzzled, not understanding what she meant.

"Odin said that bad things would happen if multiple Infinity Stones came together, and now Asgard has three Infinity Stones gathered together." Frigga's voice was gentle but serious, and her eyes revealed deep worry.

"Are you trying to get rid of me?" Wes frowned slightly, feeling somewhat uncomfortable.

"Of course not, it's all thanks to you that Thor was able to kill Malekith..."

Frigga quickly explained, her eyes filled with gratitude.

"However?" Wes knew there was bound to be a twist, so he stared intently at Frigga, waiting for her to continue.

"This time we withstood the Dark Elves' attack, but we can't stop all the ambitious people in the universe."

Wes was silent for a moment, then understood Frigga's concerns.

Frigga was worried that the three Infinity Stones would attract Thanos's army, but she was too embarrassed to ask to leave.

"I understand, I'll leave as soon as possible." Wes took a deep breath.

Frigga handed the box to Wes.

"Odin wanted to entrust the Reality Stone to the 'Collector' for safekeeping, but you are also a good candidate, so I'm giving it to you."

Wes was stunned; the Reality Stone had just been handed over to him like that.

For Asgard, the Infinity Stones are merely a burden; their most important task now is to maintain stability in the Nine Realms.

Wes thought to himself, to put it bluntly, Frigga is shifting the blame.

However, Wes was willing to take the blame, knowing the power of the gem.

Wes took the hexagonal box and felt the slight coolness emanating from it.

Frigga told Wes the incantation and instructed him, "Your current strength doesn't allow you to directly use the Reality Stone; you must control it through a tool like the scepter..."

Frigga's eyes were full of concern, as if she felt a little embarrassed to pass this big trouble to Wes.

Then Frigga opened Odin's treasury and let him choose.

It must be said that many of the treasures in Odin's vault were something Wes would covet.

Those treasures exuded a powerful aura; each one was a legendary weapon.

However, Wes now has two Infinity Stones and the golden spear, so he has no use for anything else.

Weiss then suggested that he needed some materials.

Frigga readily agreed.

Wes collected all sorts of metals, herbs, and seeds that were not found on Earth into the space of his suitcase.

He wants to create his own world, and these things are essential.

Thor, beaming with joy, held Jane tightly in his strong arms as they sang and danced merrily among the crowd.

His tall frame swayed to the rhythm of the music, his long golden hair flying in the wind.

Jane was touched by Toht's enthusiasm, and a bright smile bloomed on her face, her beautiful eyes sparkling with joy.

Her hands gently rested on Thor's shoulders, and together they reveled in this joyful moment. They seemed to become the center of the world, and everything around them became more vibrant because of their happiness.

Sif, watching Thor and Jane's intimate display, felt a surge of inexplicable anger and jealousy.

She gripped the wine glass tightly, the delicate glass in her hand as if it might shatter at any moment.

Seeing Sif's reaction, the others started urging her to fight Jane.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

They wore mocking smiles, their eyes gleaming with excitement.

Some shouted, "Sif, show her your strength! Let her know who truly deserves Thor!"

They seemed to be anticipating a spectacular duel, as if this duel would add even more passion and fun to this lively carnival.

The revelry outside lasted all night.

The sounds of music, laughter, and clinking glasses intertwined to create a unique symphony.

The air was filled with the aroma of alcohol, its rich fragrance permeating the air and intoxicating all who smelled it.

People were lying haphazardly on the ground; some were drunk and passed out in corners, while others were leaning on each other.

Thor carried Jane into the air, where they enjoyed the gentle breeze and looked down at the beautiful scenery below.

The golden sunlight shone on them, as if draping them in a sacred glow.

"So beautiful!" Jane exclaimed, her eyes filled with amazement and joy.

She gazed at the distant horizon, where the sun was slowly rising, painting the entire sky with magnificent colors.

Thor looked at Jane, and her beauty captivated him at that moment.

His eyes were filled with tenderness and love, and slowly he moved closer to Jane, about to kiss her.

"Cough~ cough~"

An awkward cough broke the romantic moment that was about to unfold.

The two turned away awkwardly, Jane blushing and Thor scratching his head sheepishly.

"Did I disturb you?" a voice came. Thor and Jane turned to look and saw Wes with a faint smile on his face.

"Hi, Wes," Thor tried to change the subject, his voice slightly unnatural, "You're here to watch the sunrise too?"

"I'm here to say goodbye," Wes said calmly.

"So eager?" Thor frowned slightly, a hint of regret on his face.

Wes simply shook his head slightly and said, "I have my own things to do and need to leave as soon as possible."

He didn't explain further.

"Asgard will always welcome you," Thor said solemnly.

His eyes were filled with sincerity and gratitude because Wes had given them tremendous help in this battle.

The gates of Asgard are always open to Wes, and they will not hesitate to lend a helping hand whenever and wherever Wes needs it.

Wes nodded; he sensed Thor's sincerity.
