"I am dying, Loki."

Odin frankly stated the fact that he would soon die.

"Father, please don't say that."

Loki knelt on one knee.

He looked concerned, but actually didn't believe it.

Odin had said the same thing before.

But when he tried to ascend to the throne of the God King, he was severely slapped in the face.

He was exiled, invaded the Earth, and arrested and taken back to Asgard.

It was also because of his contribution in fighting the Dark Elves that

Loki regained his freedom.

"Loki, my son"

"What do you think is the most important thing as a God King?"

"Is it wisdom? Strategy? Strength? System? Technology? Balance?"

"I admit that I have been prejudiced against you over the years"

"But at least now that I am about to die, I am willing to treat you as a true son and give you tests and guidance."

Loki finally saw the seriousness on Odin's face.

But he was not moved, but more thoughtful.

"I think it is wisdom!"

Loki replied.

This is also what he is most praised for.

Although the people of Asgard and other worlds think Loki is cunning.

But cunning is also wisdom.

"Not long ago, the God of Space came to Asgard"

"He asked me for the Cosmic Cube"

"The Cosmic Cube is the Space Gem, one of the six greatest treasures of the universe."

"As long as you master one piece, you can dominate the universe"

"What choice do you think I should make?

Odin told him what had just happened.

Loki said decisively :

"Of course I refused."

As soon as he said this, he was stunned.

Because from all the signs on the Rainbow Bridge, it was clear that Father God Odin had not fought a great battle with the God of Space.

"I'll give it up."

Loki's face was blank at the moment.

No matter how dissatisfied he was with his father Odin's prejudice, one thing was certain.

Odin had successfully established an invincible image in the eyes of all Asgardians for thousands of years.

He was gentle and wise, but once he took action, he was also thunderous.

Just like when Odin suppressed the unruly Thor.

Thor, who was on the battlefield, had no power to fight back in the hands of the old Odin.

Now, this invincible image was shattered in Loki's eyes.

"Loki, why do you think I handed over the Space Stone?"

Loki remained silent.

""Loki, attack me!"

Odin commanded Loki.

Loki was still kneeling on one knee, but he had turned into an illusion.

The real Loki stabbed Odin's back with two sharp blades.

Then his probing attack was unable to break Odin's defense.

""Use all your strength!"

Odin was intimidating without even getting angry.

Loki instinctively responded most fiercely under the terrible pressure.

The sharp blade in his hand stabbed Odin's back with all his strength.

This time he succeeded in breaking the defense.

But it was only a skin break, and it healed successfully in the blink of an eye.

Loki's mentality of not admitting defeat came up.

He couldn't accept that the gap between himself and his father Odin was so big.

Obviously, when he killed his real father, Laufey, the king of the frost giants, he only used one blow.

But the reality is so cruel. No matter how hard Loki tried, his attack was just like tickling Odin. Odin really launched his power as a god king after Loki was tired of attacking. This was the first time Loki really experienced the full force of his father Odin. Even if it was just the pressure of the god king, he had already given up any resistance. The despair brought by the irreparable gap was more terrifying than any enemy. This was the former god of war Odin.

"Do you still think I am weak and feeble now?"

Odin withdrew his divine power.

"There is only one reason why I would hand over the Space Stone so easily, and that is that I am no match for the God of Space."

Loki suddenly opened his eyes wide, and his pupils shrank sharply.

After personally experiencing the endless gap between him and Father God Odin, he could not imagine that there was anyone more powerful than Father God Odin in the universe.

"So my understanding is exactly the opposite of what you think."

"Strength is the most fundamental element of the God King, and wisdom is the embellishment on top of strength."

"Power without wisdom will lead to destruction"

"Wisdom without strength leads to destruction"

"Although strength and wisdom complement each other, strength comes before wisdom."

"So you see? Loki!"

"This is why you can't become a god king."

"Facing a strong enemy, even I have to retreat"

"If you, who are weaker than me, continue to retreat, Asgard will soon be destroyed.

Loki knelt on one knee again.

"I won't back down……"

""Hmm?"

Loki reacted.

He was a smart man, so he stopped talking.

Because continuous retreat would lead to the destruction of Asgard, but not retreating would only lead to the immediate destruction of Asgard.

"Thor is indeed reckless, but he has the power and potential to turn the tide."

"With him as the God King, at least Asgard has more options than you as the God King."

"So until he really grows up, he will provide the strength and you will provide the wisdom."

"This is the best choice for Asgard after I am gone."

"Don't you want to be the God King?"

"I will immediately appoint you as the acting God King."

"The duration is until I die"

"I will go to Earth to spend the last days of my life"

"Just experience what kind of situation a God King who has wisdom but no power will face."

"Remember, the death rate of Asgard warriors must not exceed 10,000"

"Once it exceeds ten thousand, you, the acting God King, will be considered a failure."

Odin quickly arranged his funeral before Loki could react.

All the people in Asgard knew that Odin's life was coming to an end, his power was fading, and he was no longer suitable to be the God King.

So before he really died and Thor returned,

Asgard was temporarily handed over to Loki, the acting God King, to manage.

After completing the arrangements, under the attention of countless Asgardians, the old and aging God King Odin was teleported to an unknown planet on the Rainbow Bridge to spend the last days of his life.

Loki truly became the highest authority in Asgard.

It was different from the last time.

Last time, Loki took advantage of Thor being demoted to the earth and Odin sleeping to try to usurp the throne.

But at that time, there was still the Queen of Gods Frigga in charge.

Loki was still restricted.

But this time, there was no restriction on his head.

In theory, he really had Loki was equipped with the supreme authority of the God King.

But for some reason, he was no longer excited.

Instead, he was filled with confusion.

His father Odin could no longer back him up.

Or he could only back him up once.

Once he really made things out of control,

Odin would inevitably fall after the final move.

That would be equivalent to killing his father Odin.

Loki, sitting on the throne, looked at the gods with suspicion, but without questioning.

He felt the blessings offered by the messengers of various planets and civilizations.

He saw the disdain and snickering in the eyes of those messengers.

These were things that his father Odin did not have when he was the God King.

For some reason,

Loki tried his best to maintain the majesty of the acting God King on the surface.

But his heart was in the abyss.

He understood.

No one cared about his wisdom that he was proud of.

Instead, they cared about his lack of power as the God King.
