Chapter 197

“Don’t worry, father, I have already set countless challenges! And I’ve continued to do so! Humanity- no, all races must undergo evolution. Stagnation will do no good!” said the God of Chaos while laughing mischievously.

“I think you’ve done way more than you were requested to do, God of Chaos.” Said the God of Light.

“What’s wrong, grandfather? My father merely enjoys a good show…” said the Goddess of Death.

The God of Light showed clear annoyance and discomfort as he looked at Loki and Hel.

These two figures really got on his nerves, and it’s not as if those outside his pantheon were making things better. They were only worsening the situation by looking defiantly at Odin as if they were saying, “serves you right!”.

But what was this issue that Odin had? Certainly, having his priests killed by this ghost couldn’t be enough to anger him, right?

Or was it?

“And why are you getting angry over mortals dying? I never thought you were so fixated on them… Don’t worry, I am taking good care of their souls- Oh, right, she can eat and destroy souls, my bad, they might not even have a nice afterlife then, hahaha!” laughed the Goddess of Death.

The God of Chaos laughed at the side of his daughter.

“Hahahahaha! She’s hilarious, isn’t she?” he laughed.

“…”

The God of Light seemed to grow more and more infuriated.

“Loki! Stop messing around! Do you dare offend our own father?! Calm down, your daughter!” said the God of Thunder as lightning came out of his body.

“Thor, this doesn’t have anything to do with you. Shut up.” Said Loki with a serious and annoyed expression on his effeminate face.

“You bastard… If it has to do with my father, then it has to do with me too!” roared the God of Thunder: Thor.

The conflicting interest between the two was clear. The God of Light wanted to expand his influence, and to do that, he required his church priests, the strongest he had and the ones blessed by him, to spread the religion and his words to the people.

The more influence there was, the more power he would gain. He wanted the entire Continent of Midgard to become his domain and then expand to other areas using his humans as pawns.

This is how Gods fought. They didn’t fight against one another, but instead, they used humans and mortals as their chess pieces. Pantheons fought one another through this method as well; the factions used their mortals to represent them.

Of course, the problem arose when the “nuisances” showed up on the continent of Midgard… The Dragon Tribe, the Majin Tribe, the Demon King… Well, more like, they were always there, to begin with.

Odin simply saw them as a nuisance that shouldn’t be here… and things escalated quickly into a full-fledged war. He wanted the entire continent to be the land of humans, not the land of humans AND other races… simply put, humans were the race that was the most compatible with him. They were the ones most compatible with his element, his words, his teachings, his soul even…

This is why some even called him “The God of Humans” although he was always annoyed by such words, they held a strong truth to them. Of course, other gods were playing a role in the war against the Demon King. But even when they lost and the Demon Kingdom and the Dragon Tribe were exterminated, there were still nuisances lurking around. Little tribes left that wandered around aimlessly.

He wanted to clean all this from Midgard, so his humans could dedicate themselves to a full-fledged expansion and multiplication of their population ALL around the entire continent.

It seemed unrealistic, to be honest. Midgard was a planet-sized continent. It was bound to happen for people of other races to show up there and begin growing their own kingdoms, nations, and more, primarily due to how the other continents were connected to the Midgard continent through the Bifrost, the rainbow ice that connected the continents together across the oceans.

For eons, the populations of each continent had walked out of their homes and populated other areas, looking for places where they could find more comfortable places to live. It was bound to happen for demi-humans to emerge in Midgard, despite humans being the most common.

Odin’s obsession with humans and Midgard was sick, but he called Hel and Loki the insane ones because they didn’t want the world to stagnate. Loki brought challenges, which he found annoying, despite them being useful to bring evolution to the people and not stagnate in place, challenges, dangers, and prizes and wonders. It was something that was needed for a world to keep moving forward.

The common danger in monsters brought unity to the people. They worked hard to stay together and survive together. Odin didn’t realize this completely and thought that Loki’s schemes were going beyond this, despite the adoptive son having good intentions, but his antics and personality made it hard to believe…

Hel, in the other case, seemed more mysterious, but she seemed to “want to participate” in this entire fight between gods as she had stayed in the back for way too long. More than anything, she desired an avatar, someone that would represent her.

And also… she wanted someone that would take a role similar to a Soul Reaper, a person that brought down those that wanted to fake death, such as the immortal Vampires that had lived for decades and had been messing around with people for way too long, or to fight back against Odin’s intentions by attacking his church through her, even though she had not provoked any of this, as it was mostly all this ghost girl’s doing.

But was this all the gods’ intentions? Was this truly everything there was to it and nothing else? There was certainly something more… something more to it…

The meeting between gods simply brought more discord than anything, and it was quickly closed by the God of Light after he decided that he didn’t want to look at Hel in the face anymore.

There was no point in trying to reason with the Goddess of Death…
