EHG— CHAPTER 808
🕑 Added 2021-06-12 07:25:19 +0000 UTCTitle: The Cosmic Wisdom
In the throne room of Asgard, Odin sat with his body brimming, almost dripping, with energy. Ray and Brian silently stood aside with an idle expression. There weren't a lot of things to do in Asgard aside from mindlessly hunting beasts and sparring with others. The most primal form of entertainment also included sexual entertainments but Brian's literal blue balls were blue-balled by his extremely exotic chin.
Meanwhile Ray? He was now having the time of his nightlife.
"Who would have thought Odin would actually be this... dangerous? Man, I wish I had an Incubus bloodline," Brian mumbled. Even if he asked for Nik's blood and managed to evolve using a lust-related bloodline, his true core— Temporal Manipulation, might end up being diluted or removed. So, this was an extremely unfavorable exchange for Brian once he thought about the situation calmly.
"It's still Odin's power. Heck, Nik is the one who's strange. Always fucking and getting stronger... but thinking about him, his problems are worse than us. We're not actively conspired by the ancestors except for, you know, the hidden curses in our bodies. Mephisto knew what he was talking about..." Ray clicked his tongue.
"What do you think of him? I thought you were going to take every Asgardian male," Brian said while looking at the dazzling figure kneeling in front of Odin. Even Brian would have wanted to tap that if he were a homosexual or a woman... which, ironically, Ray and Nik could help Brian with.
"I did think that... and then I recalled my previous standards. Amazonian fantasy is nice and all... but what about hygiene? I can bet you that 80% Asgardian stink worse than some of the cheeses," Ray stated with a calm expression but Brian pursed his lips.
"TMI!" He grunted.
"Anyway, yeah, Balder is hot," Ray smirked with a slight tint on his cheeks.
"Do you think this is about Nik? You did say that Loki and Nik are together," Brian inquired after a moment.
"God, I hope that's the case!" Ray rolled his eyes, "That way, we can have some fun. You know, this feels like a surprise party where we are still sitting in the dark, ready to jump scare the birthday boy but he's just... at his girlfriend's place, making out. And we're stuck for the whole night. True story."
Brian gave Ray a sidelong glance.
"And this mad titan is supposed to be your dad, right? At least, you'll get your Karma fulfilled. After that, only Nik will remain, probably. Hey, did you notice that despite having the least experience or contact in the Transmigration Paradise, he still has the most complicated of problems? I always thought it would be you since you came across as edgy when we first met," Ray inquired.
"Me? Edgy?" Brian frowned.
"Well, aside from having an obvious boner. Both of you had you johnsons on display," Ray recalled how he made an appearance in the world of demons and demon slayers.
"I don't know what you're talking about. I was thinking about porn," Brian shrugged naturally.
"Wow, edgy," Ray stated, making Brian's expression stiff.
But before Odin could make a decision, Ray smiled and interjected.
"Your highness, may I ask something about the queen of Nornheim?"
Balder's expression twitched. In the Asgardian court, this strange minister— Ray— had raised some radical issues but strangely, his father would agree with most of the changes and the implementation of these changes somehow took Asgard for the better. But the results were still too minor to have any significant impact.
Balder knew of this since his royal mother had asked of him to conduct an investigation. And when it came to some discreet matters, despite having the most flamboyant reaction to his appearance, Balder still got the job done. Something that Thor would have wrecked literally, and even Loki would have only concocted another conspiracy to amuse himself if given such a task.
"You may," Odin's beard slightly twitched. Only Yggdrasil knew what he went through this period alongside Heimdall, and if he liked it or not...
"The Queen of Nornheim has colluded with Loki more than once. The motivation of said collusion is none other than Balder himself. We might just be sending Balder into a trap.
On the other hand, Loki's contact with the mad titan Thanos in itself is quite serious. I think that it is astute if I accompany Balder."
Brian didn't need special eyes to see Ray's bullshit from miles away. It was clear as a day why Ray would want to accompany Balder. Well, in the court, everyone understood except for Balder himself.
Thinking of Karnilla and her wall of Balder... the man himself didn't have any problem with Ray accompanying him.

"I see," Karnilla's gaze landed on Angela. Shock filled her heart as she nodded, "I was present at that war."
Her words attracted Loki.
"And I did see Engel stabbing Aldrif. Hmm, it must come as quite a shock to All-Father once he sees her. But, after Balder comes to apprehend you, I'll be sharing this information with All-Father," Karnilla added with a calm expression.
"Well, knowing father, he would have tried to heart-attack his way out of this one," Loki mumbled, "But sadly, that ship sailed once he recovered. How did he recover?" Loki looked at Karnilla as if she didn't hear Karnilla stating that she would rat Loki out.
"Two external ministers. I haven't seen them personally but one of them is extremely popular and the other one is extremely discriminated against due to his appearance, well, only by the warriors and guards. Others must have seen more different things so they don't really care much about the two of them."
"That's it?" Loki frowned.
"Yes, why?" Karnilla crossed her leg.
"Nothing. I just expected more of you."
Karnilla frowned and a magical pulse emanated around her.
Loki silently eyed Karnilla with a smile.
"I wonder what poor Balder would think if he heard about us~!" Loki finally whispered. Amora's eyelids twitched.
'New information!' She thought instantly.
Meanwhile, Karnilla's eyelids flared.
"I think he'd understand," a calm voice broke the tension, "I mean, you all are thousands of years old and you don't seem to be in a relationship with Balder. He wouldn't mind."
Loki glanced at Nik with her smile twitching.
"Lustful creatures are truly vile," she sneered while Nik kept on an indifferent expression. His motives could be achieved in so many options that it was dizzying.
He could disguise himself as Balder. He could, well, force himself on her— an option Nik adopted for female opponents after his life, or male with necessary genderbending potential. He could slowly coax her and fill Karnilla's ears with strange rumors against Balder. He could act as her gay best friend and make her want to 'try' something new! Depraved thoughts filled his mind but first, he needed to make a strong impression since teleportation isn't that high of a milestone in Asgard.
"Save it, Loki. You, continue," Karnilla rested her cheek on her hand and leaned against her armrest while scrutinizing Nik.
'Too bad I'm into blonde...' She clicked her tongue internally.
"Continue?" Nik inquired, "What?"
"Pfft, well there you go. I saved myself from embarrassment," Loki giggled. Janet sat next to Nik and Morgan was sitting in another chair. Poole and Spider meanwhile sat on the table in the middle itself.
"Continue how Balder wouldn't blame me," Karnilla narrowed her eyes, her tone turning slightly authoritative. Sitting next to Loki, Angela's gaze turned slightly chilling.
"Well, I don't personally know Balder. But generally, a rational and emotionally stable man would understand when he's morally allowed to feel... like a wuss," Nik smiled.
"What's a wuss?"
"When you wallow in self-pity and loathing. I've been there myself. A disturbing state of mind," Nik replied.
"You think too low of him!" Karnilla stated in a low voice, her tone having a slight tremble as she glared at Nik.
"Again, I didn't meet him. But instead of taking offense, think of the situation from another point of view. Self-pity and loathing because he couldn't be with you and realized that you're with someone else... I say that's quite the passion. Wouldn't you agree?" Nik had an easygoing smile as if he didn't feel the tip of Karnilla's hair trembling and twitching due to the magical current pouring out.
"Of course, all of it is hypothetical. He may not be interested in you. He may as well be interested in you. The only way to find is by revealing that you are no longer available, right?"
Karnilla's eyes brightened.
"How did you attain such wisdom?" Karnilla inquired with a trembling voice.
"I skimmed through Cosmo. I was slightly curious," stated Nik, referring to the magazine.
'Cosmos...' Karnilla's eyes brightened.
The more she stared at Nik, the more pleasing he looked. More than pleasing— attractive.
"Loki... can you pull the same prank on Nik that you did to Sif?" Karnilla inquired.
"He's already dark-haired..." Loki mumbled while she recalled one of her greatest pranks committed with such elegance. Like a moon, one might say. A bald moon.
"Then the opposite," Karnilla practically growled with a flushed expression.
Everyone in the cavern was an adult with their own thoughts so they knew at once that Karnilla was somehow... getting off!
"... No," Loki crossed her arms, "I like dark hair. Thor ruined blondes for me."
"Aren't I lucky," Nik scoffed and pouted.
"Are we going to fight or not?" Angela inquired with a narrowed expression.
"No, we aren't," Karnilla replied and stood up. "You... Nik, is it? Follow me."
She said while walking towards the inner tunnel of the cave system.
"Hehe, see y'all later," Nik shrugged and stood up.
"What are we supposed to do while you're off hooking up?" Spider inquired with a disgruntled tone.
"Join me?" Nik chuckled and left. His answer still keeping Spider in a daze.
"But... we don't have a body..." Poole answered for Spider but Nik was nowhere to be seen anymore.
"Right, now that the petty distraction is out of the way," Loki stated, still unknown who she referred to— Nik or Karnilla, she smiled and revealed a slightly menacing expression.
"It's to rehearse. Morgan, you'll be All-Father since he doesn't move or speak much. And Amora, you'll be the distressed mother."
"How about I show you some mother's love later?" Amora cooed, already bored out of her mind and wanting some action now that there's a possibility that Karnilla might get it.
"We'll see," Loki chuckled and clapped her hands.
"What about me?" Janet inquired.
"Be pretty, princess. Better yet, be the guard who'll catch All-Father once he gets a heart attack. You can pull it off, right, Morgan?"
Thinking for a moment, Morgan revealed a short smirk.
"In a heartbeat."
Her words silenced the cavern while Morgan shrieked internally.
'Enough with the puns!... especially bad ones!'
