" How do you think the Bifrost works ? " " Speed of light ? " Atsuki guessed while they were preparing for the grill " I know that much " Zhack chops the meat while Atsuki skewers them " Ikuta got invited to be part of the olympian pantheon the Aesirs too but Chara forced them to leave him be "
" That's nice but what kind of domain were they planning to give to Ikuta ? " Zhack was confused by her question since it was so obvious " I did hear it was about the void from Zeus " " What about the Aesir ? " " ... I didn't go with Chara for that " " what would they gift to Ikuta for joining them " " there are gifts ? " Atsuki nodded .
" Redun said that any strong member that joins any group should get gifts " " huh that sounds like something the Aesirs would do but wouldn't they have to ask the dwarves for it ? I technically stole all of their treasures " " I thought you said stealing was bad ? " " Not if they are the gods these guys are filthy rich and they can just bet with their bodies like that story "
" What kind of things can you make out of a god's body anyway? " " A lot of things actually in fact I heard that Asgard itself is a treasure because it was made from Ymir " " So what can you make out of a god ? " Zhack thinks about all the ruined scripts he recovered and restored .
" It's sort of like the level-up system did you know that there was a system store that was created , it basically allows you to purchase any kind of skill from it with skill points a mortal can only have so much during birth but a god is different they are born with plenty of them some turned to raw power "
" Is that why the titans were very strong " " yeah but still a piece of cake to me ... Wait that must be what the wish is for " Zhack called the status screen and looked at the system store " Hmm dang that makes plenty of sense " Atsuki looked at Zhack's status screen viewing the store .
" You have Zero skill points " " because there's a specific method to get it and only gods can afford to use it , Chaos could make it or other primordial gods but I doubt we can " Zhack said and Atsuki looked at the list of skills that could be bought .
" So this is how you create these skill points " Chaos reads the text that appears on a status screen " It is amazing that you obtained such a thing to bless the world before the otherworlders took away this artifact and you returned the blessing " Ikuta looked at the text sitting with Chaos while the wary gods of Olympus watched them .
" This explains why I don't have any of these skill points what about you ? " Ikuta shook his head " You have been pushing yourself too much your stat scores are even higher than the gods around here " " You can tell ? " " Yes since I was able to access the status screen I am also able to see what others' stats are by the action which you may call hacking "
" Maybe you can remove Arachne's curse ? " Chaos thinks about it and checks on Arachne " I believe you don't have to do it , she seems content with her new form " " Really ? "
" Yes not much can accept the pain of a monstrous form but maybe her mindset was that Athena had used it to punish her so she could simply choose to enjoy it to not give the goddess the satisfaction of her triumph over her " " Oh that makes so much sense "
Chaos gets up " I've finished reading it's already time for your lunch so you should head back " " Okay I'll call Chara too " " You can go back on your own you know "
Ikuta was confused and Chaos gave him their thoughts " You can possess the entire empty void all you have to do is travel through the void and exit at the point "
" I can't exactly tell the distance on the void and it's kinda hard to see what is outside without cutting the thin line , I might accidentally hit someone " " Then they will be treated by you after all you have connections to the underworld " Ikuta sighed and went through the portal ' over here ? ' he leaves the void and finds himself in outer space .
' Midgard is over there " Harry said ' Oh this is gonna be hard ' Ikuta continuously got lose while Zhack already had the food finished and started eating along with his siblings " Chara is going to be late but why is Ikuta also taking forever ? " Atsuki asked .
" Not sure " Stork said while eating a skewer " Maybe we should call him , he shouldn't be busy " " Maybe he's with his friends " Atsuki said and they thought about it .
" Nah I don't think Ikuta is that kind of person to abuse his power to interrupt their family vacations plus I'm sure he wants to enjoy our company " Harkness said .
" Yeah that is just weird you know why he enjoys his friend's company is because they always talk about classic kids' stuff " Redun said " That is true they rarely let his other affairs with the gods affect the way they treat him " Aichel mentioned .
" They sound like good friends for him , unbothered by his position in the real world but they are kids maybe soon enough they will have to ask things about him in person " Locke said " Oh that makes sense ... But what if we improve the whole world so they will be friends ? " Redun suggested .
Aichel recalls the level of education while everyone else recalled the strength of the ancient civilization and the hierarchy " that could work , increasing the level of education so that they could stand on his level is great " Aichel said while imagining a great city rebuilt at the sky island .
" Well , do you think we won't anger Gaia now ? " Redun asked " Not sure but I can always call Chara to be a mediator for us if not I can ask Locke " " Me ? " Aichel nodded .
" Nonono please just ask Chara even if I helped Drakon ascend to godhood I helped because there was the abyss which I now know is Dad but dang it's amazing how strong they were they managed to kill a lot back then "
" How strong do you think mom and dad are? " Redun asked and everyone thought " Probably stronger than Yggdrasil she was able to disguise her power as the withering " Harkness said . A great light descends to the shore and Chara walks out of it with Gungnir .
" Where's Ikuta " " We thought he was with you " Redun said " He must be having trouble coming here I couldn't find him at all " " I'm sure he won't die even in outer space it is sort of his body right now " Harkness nodded to Zhack's point " That's true but he can still get hurt so you should be careful about it Zhack "
" What ? What did I do ? " Zhack said feeling accused " It's something strange Ikuta said he felt like he was having a painful stomachache and pointed out the spots which are where you had destroyed the space barrier " everyone turned to stare at Zhack " I didn't mean to okay and how does that give him a painful stomach "
" Likely because the space we occupy is basically Ikuta's body maybe you are a parasite " Stork mentioned " Me ? " " That could be possible after all Ikuta never experienced any problems with his stomach before "
While they discussed Ikuta's stomach problem Locke mentioned " Do you think it's possible that Ikuta is trying to eat our world ? " They all froze thinking about the possibility .
...
" AHH " Ikuta finally arrived after they had a long talk and looked at his siblings " Oh sorry I was late it's hard to get a hang of this thing " everyone stuffed food in Ikuta's mouth " here eat eat eat " they all remember what Chara said .
" Saintess I need to have that child killed " Odin said with much seriousness in his voice . Chara tapped the ground with her staff forming the gleipnir around Odin " You better explain yourself all father of Aesirs " Chara said in a threatening voice .
" It's nothing I just want you to know that his occupation of the void has caused our world to erode slowly , I believe it's his nature to convert anything that occupies his body into his energy " Odin said calmly .
" So it's like that " Chara retrieves Gleipnir " How do you know ? " " At the edge of our world is a darkness that was closing in I don't know what was happening but I could see Cronus and Rhea at the edge with the otherworlders they have a protective spell to keep that darkness from entering "
Chara imagined it wondering how it was possible " It seems like they wanted to negotiate as they also used that spell to keep me from peering at how it can work "
" So you are giving me two options ? " Odin nodded " You wouldn't like the other option and I wouldn't either but negotiating with the otherworlders for that spell could cost a lot they might demand something "
" How weird we just fought and they are only showing this ? " " The otherworlder who named themself the delusional one had done this " " we have to go ? " Odin nodded " the Aesirs and Mount Olympus will have to go as well this concerns the world that we occupy "
' So you stopped calling it that now ? ' Chara thought and Chaos walked in as if they owned the place " Odin was it ? " Odin left his throne bowing to Chaos " Yes it has been a long time almighty Chaos " " what was this about the void eroding creation ? "
Chara explained to Chaos how Ikuta's possession of the void has resulted it in trying to consume this world " Oh then that's fine , I have situated this world close to the center anyways you can just ask Yggdrasil to warn you while Heimdal is recovering " Odin was surprised by how little consideration was put in the fact that creation is being devoured .
" I do need someone to clean up a few mistakes I make " " either way I plan to act against the otherworlder , they have mother with them " Chara said " that would be in my interest as well I would like to meet with them " Chaos said and Odin wondered what Chaos thinks about the impending danger .
" As for Ikuta's possession of the void I will solve it " Chaos said and Odin wondered what was so important that Chaos had to do it ' How will Chaos solve it ? '
Odin thought " Now as for the underworld Hel rules I had already talked to Hades about letting her continue it due to her development I just need you to agree "
" What about Loki ? " " He goes by Lodurr now " Odin sensed that his oath with Loki was gone now ' So much trouble from these groups and families , I hope we don't end up in this kind of uncomfortable situation ' " As for the search on your crows and wolves it will take a while but they might've gained their own free will just like Ratatoskr "
Chara watched Odin who was holding back every bit of his insanity ' It'll be bad of a god like Odin were to go mad but I have some precautions ' Chaos left and Chara watched Odin ' Well if he dies it won't be a small problem at all ' " Chara about Odin you didn't just leave him there did you ? " Locke asked .
" You of all people know how dangerous it is for a person like Odin to suddenly go mad " Harkness said and Chara sighed " Don't be that mad , I took care of him " She held a book which was pulsing " I sealed him inside this " Stork recognized the bindings of the paper .
" So that's why you told me to repair Gleipnir " " Are these things really made from things that once existed ? " Zhack asked " Yeah if you zoomed in enough you can see it " " But how does that make any sense ? " Zhack said pointing out the absurdity of the fact .
It's one thing to make something ot of material but Gleipnir was made from things that are supposed to exist but don't exist because it was extracted like removing all the u ot of this sentence .
" It's possible the maker swore not to make another one after his wife beat him up for the itchy pain on her chin the next few days " Harkness and Chara thought about it and asked Redun " Was there a time when that happened ? " " Oh yeah but when we were taking everyone in that slowly faded out "
' the creation of Gleipnir does coincide with the time of ancient civilization ' " but how did that work ? " Zhack asked " It worked because extracting the existence of things is quite hard " Stork said and Atsuki thought about the extraction of things " What was Gleipnir made of ? " Stork tells her about the materials .
" There were roots in the mountains " Atsuki asked " used to be but it was completely removed of course you can put it back if you disassemble Gleipnir " Stork said .
Aichel wondered about the philosopher's stones that were used to store the genetic material that allowed a female to grow more hair or fur around their mouth as well as the other genetic materials that were lost one day guessing it likely coincides with the creation of gleipnir .
" That is very interesting perhaps I should recreate the genetic material for those impossible materials of Gleipnir " Stork thinks of it " I would appreciate it if I could try to make more too " Ikuta pushed his hand away from the plate " did you guys eat lunch yet ? I've been eating so much "
" And you will eat more " Zhack said forcing another chunk of pork into Ikuta's mouth ' but it's been an hour since I came ' " Hey can I have that Chara " Harry asked " No Odin is going crazy because of the lack of his other parts "
" Oh I know this one " Atsuki said " Vedrfolnir told me that Odin's crows and wolves are technically part of him because he needs to sit on the throne , so Odin is going crazy because a part of him doesn't exist close to him "
" That's correct Atsuki " Chara said " But what happens to the throne now ? " " Give it to Ikuta you are technically going to have to prove your Odin so sit on the throne and here "
Chara gave Gungnir away " And then you can just show off with Harry " Chara said " Wait shouldn't it go to Thor ? " Ikuta protested .
" He died at Ragnarok and became part of the Einherjar you know " Locke said " And I have his weapon and I declare you receive the right " Zhack said trying to dodge responsibility for the weapon's former owner " But I'm not even related to Odin " " you have claim to the throne and that is being equal to the all-father "
Chara pointed at Harry " You got Odin's eye which only attached itself to a person close to Odin which is you so you do have right to it " " But I'm twelve " " We were young too when we were doing some things " Redun said " Now go sit on the throne "
" Ugh fine " Ikuta accepted it and Zhack teleported him to the throne " Wow " Ikuta was surprised to find himself at the throne and Chaos waiting " You are finally here " " Sorry Just dropping him by " Ikuta turned to Chaos wondering why they appeared here of all places .
" I was just waiting I have been consulting with that head in the other room " " Head ? " Ikuta asked " You know Mimir " Harry said " So that's their name " Chaos said and another portal appeared with Chara dropping a book " You can keep Odin I've checked to see how strong the seal is and you pretty much can have him not "
Ikuta looked at the book seeing many different runes but could also sense the maddened soul of Odin asleep with Hypnos's power inside " Interesting maybe Odin's crows and wolves would return " " Huh they will ? "
Chaos looked at the book " Yes as soon as you fill the holes inside the book at least " Ikuta looked at two small holes and two big holes on the cover and touched it and watched it fill up with flames just like the flames Harry makes .
But the big holes had a much different flame ' That looks just like my stomach fire ' the flames ignited burning the cover and finally revealing a flat book with two crows on the upper part and at the lower part two wolves .
Two crows and two wolves dashed into the throne room and jumped into Ikuta flying into Mago " wow " he felt a little bit of his stomach flame taken by the wolves and some of Mago's condensed memories being taken by the crows .
They exited Ikuta's body and stood by the throne " It seems they recognize you as Odin and it feels like you stopped eating our world " " Huh what do you mean I'm eating the world ? " " You may not sense it but because of your occupancy of the void and your stomach fire you have been slowly devouring the world I made "
" Oh uhm I'm sorry about that " " Don't be it's pretty far from this place where all my creations gathered and thanks to Yggdrasil they are even closer than before " Ikuta sat on the throne feeling uncomfortable and tried to change his position .
" Now as for this summer you will be with me learning about how to use the void as well as creating to feed yourself or in the words of that delusional Ouroboros a serpent that devours its own tail " Ikuta wondered how hard it would be and accepted it .
" But what about dad ? " " The otherworlders won't do anything to him but the way they found out about him is interesting , Using Cronus's foresight to find a non-constant event in the future shows how much of an influence your father is to Cronus's foresight which is supposed to be accurate "
" I know " " Well I'm also wondering what happened to the abyss when Locke repelled them " Chaos said " You don't know what happened to it ? " " Yes do you know ? " Ikuta thinks back to the time Locke talked about the abyss .
" No , I don't think so " " Well you should make sure you prepare for them if the abyss wasn't destroyed they may view you as their new master " " Won't they want to destroy this world ? "
" That's for you to decide " " What does that mean ? " Chaos doesn't say anything to answer it and changes the subject and teaches Ikuta how to control the void and create .
...
At night Ikuta fell on his bed hearing the news about him becoming Odin ' This is so embarrassing ' Ezio called with a video chat and he answered " Hello all-father " he said jokingly " Ahh I heard so many Einherjar call me that already stop it " Ikuta complained .
" Come on you are like at the top of the world and we saw Chaos teaching you " Nisse said joining the call " I know but still it's embarrassing , I even saw Mimir and I got too curious and looked under his neck "
" Ahhh what does it look like " the rest joined and Ikuta said " It's like when someone amputated your arm and skin covers it , it felt gross thinking about it so I just regenerated Mimir's whole body " " What dang it would've been so funny if only a head was just talking " Ezio complained .
" I think I would puke if I saw that " Druk said " But how does Mimir talk or even breathe " Pyra asked " I won't say anything about it because it's like body horror " " Oh what if under his head was the rest of his organs " Ezio said .
Amber gulped thinking of a possible way for it to work just to cope with the horror Ezio imagined " Maybe it's just Odin casting a very complicated spell ? " " I don't think that's just it Amber Ikuta did say it's like body horror "
" Isn't that spell that Thor uses on Tanngrisnir and Tanngnjostr to revive them from bones enough body horror ? " Ezio pointed out and Druk quickly joined in " Oh that's true , We met Harry as an eye beneath Ikuta so doesn't that mean he could make other organs appear somewhere else "
Amber squeezed her stuffed toy trying to stomach it " Wait then you can turn your hand to breathe fire out ? " Pyra asked with excitement referencing an animation film that calmed Amber down " Then that's just making a chimera wait do you think we can learn about it ? " Ezio asked and Ikuta wondered .
" Aichel did say he wants to teach several kinds of spells and techniques so maybe ? " Ikuta wasn't so sure about it either but just the chance was giving Ezio hope " Ahhhh I can't wait to learn something like this maybe we can make a new monster "
" Well even if you do Redun said it would be better if it was using a computer , they think it's better to have it that way unless it ends up like those sci-fi horror movies they watched " " awww at least I get to try to make one " Ezio said .
" So how is the vacation " " It was fun just today we saw two shooting stars " Pyra started .
...
Chaos looked at the book of Odin ' It seems even after filling the holes the madness still stains Odin's soul , Her seal is great to be able to seal away Odin's soul however that otter is quite amazing in his right fighting several titans on his own and with his lightning perhaps I should send some things on his way '
Chaos watched the family pack the barbeque while talking to each other ' the firstborns can harness power from the distance , the second can harness their strength meanwhile the girl can obtain power from the unseen , the dwarf from my creation and he could harness something gods obtain '
Ikuta's turn was up and Chaos looked at him imagining how greedy Ikuta was ' His family grew from a humble start with an extraordinary origin , maybe because they were the ones who built themselves '
Ikuta happily talked about the things he was doing with his friend and they shared ' The way he controls the void is curious , a thought for a weapon something he can achieve due to his dominion , a great feeling of emptiness was created and a sense of control was obtained upon sensing his father '
Chaos couldn't help but praise the denier ' Even though you require the destruction for creation you are still better than me at nurturing it , both of the pantheon's had prophecies that they ended up causing to have come true '
There was much disappointment to be had with the pantheons that Chaos created ' But I can't give the inheritance to them , they were great and built themselves a strong foundation meanwhile the other gods don't have the opportunity for that , perhaps I need to make sure they get the chance but how '
...
For a week Chaos taught Ikuta and finally " Gaia woke up ? " Ikuta asked surprised " Yes she did , All the madness that was inside her has been cleaned" " You took a long time " " Oh no I just started today now Chaos that should be enough for Ikuta's tuition fee ? "
" Yes, thanks for that Saintess " " Huh ? " " Chaos asked me to heal Gaia so I did so what did you learn ? " " Well I learned how to make more parts of myself you know like those dark worms I was able to turn them into void worms also uhm the crows and wolves are being controlled by Harry "
" Woohoo this is so Fun "
