'Well, the previous research on drawing energy from the Quantum realm should somewhat help with this, right?' I asked thoughtfully, after all, the infinite energy project was indeed quantum physics.
[Not much, considering that it mostly focused on safely drawing energy from the Quantum realm, this time, we are venturing deep into it, so the two research projects cannot be compared.]
'Hmm, that does make sense…'
[Of course it does, master~]
'Okay, then we will talk about this later, for now, Eva, I need you to do a thing for me, utilize the force of Asgard, and create a protective barrier covering Asgard, the best you can right now using the Force.
Although I don't fear any of the dimension lords, and other gods of the universe, and want to fight them too, it would be bad if the decide to attack Asgardians or my family to get to me…
I know that the future me is protecting the current me, but hey, that does not mean that I can ignore efforts from my side…'
[Hmm, yes, you are right, master, creating a barrier covering the entirety of Asgard,
The barrier would be rune based, overcharged by the force of Asgard, rendering it near unbreakable, even you would need to get serious to completely destroy the barrier, I have also added both mystical and physical defences which would ensure complete safety, and it's active at all times, thanks to infinite energy.]
I looked up and saw a golden barrier covering the skies, it existed only for a few moments before it turned invisible, one could sense it's energy to find that it existed, but it was invisible to naked eyes.
Well, my all seeing eyes could see it, but you know, I am talking about everyone else.
'Good job, Eva, on a side note, let's upgrade the Bifrost too…'
[Again with your unending passion for weapons or means of mass destruction, huh]
'Not really, it is more than that… I was thinking, even if I disappear, or all gods in Asgard disappear, Asgard should still have a trump card, something which can make other entities wary of attacking us…
And a Bifrost charged by the Force of Asgard, would do the job pretty damn well…'
[Although taking emergency measures is good master, but do you really think you would disappear one day? Humph, as if I would let that happen, not happening, not even if you want to!]
'Haha, it's good to see that you care for me so much, Eva, and don't worry, I sure as hell intend on living forever…
Though, it's your job to keep me entertained, okay?
If I am stuck being bored for eternity, then that would be pretty lame, right?'
[Don't worry about that, I will handle that, master. Anyways, now that almost every entity in the universe has its eyes on Asgard, what do want to do next?]
'Let's take a small break, for about a century, I suppose…
Everyone has been fighting for so long, so a break would freshen them up, and, during this time, I can also prepare Asgardians even more, then we can do conquest at a whole another level.
For now, though… I will limit myself to the nine realms…'
[I see, so we prepare for Nornheim too?]
'Obviously, Nornheim's attached to Asgard, an independent kingdom can't exist while being attached to Asgard, I won't allow it.'
[Well, their queen, Karnilla is strong per say, only a bit weaker than Odin, of course, she's far outmatched in raw power, but she has many tricks.]
'Yeah, will deal with her anytime soon… Okay, let's talk about this later, I will go talk to mother now.'
[okay, master.]
I teleported and appeared outside Mother's room, and signalled a maid to go and inform mother of my arrival.
Soon, mom's voice came from the inside telling me to come in.
"You know you don't need to follow all these etiquettes to meet me, right, son?" Frigga said with a chuckle.
"What can I say, the responsibilities which come with being a king does change you." I laughed back
"Please, you are a few centuries too early to say stuff like that." Frigga rolled her eyes
"Anyways, mom, you know that I have enhanced everyone on Asgard, right?"
"Yes, I know son, you will surely become the greatest king Asgard has ever seen." Mother said with a proud smile.
"Well, not much competition there… even if I was the worst king, I would still be in the top 3, anyways, what I wanted to talk to you about was,
With everyone in Asgard enhanced, it is no more just a blessing by me, it is a symbol of Asgard itself, and it goes way beyond just increasing strength, I know you are sad, and those jokes of yours, you are using as a defence mechanism…
But, please, mother, I urge you, to accept my gift.
And don't worry, I am not planning on locking away father permanently, just a century would be enough.
But no less than that, after all, he did attack my precious sister." I said it all without stopping, not giving her a chance to speak.
-Frigga pov-
I couldn't help but smile wryly as I looked at my son, he is my greatest pride… Though he acts silly sometimes, but that increases his charm to some extent in a sense.
Ever since I became a mother, I always had one single goal, to not let my family break apart.
I knew, it would be hard, considering that my husband himself killed his brother to usurp the throne, it was kind of a curse, running through Asgard…
I thought I did a pretty good job at the start, but maybe, I was wrong… everything changed far too suddenly…
One moment, we were preparing to procure the soul stone and conquer the universe, the next, peace was declared.
I don't know what to say about Hela, my silly daughter, I have failed her, that's for sure, maybe I was biased to some extent, focusing more on Magnar…
But I really can't choose sides, one side were my precious children, other, the man I love…
Though, Magnar, my kind boy, at least did not let the situation fall to the worst point by not killing his father.
And his assurances of just a century of imprisonment? Well, I know that he's doing that because of me, I know my son, he won't be that soft otherwise.
I give him a smile, as I moved forward, caressing his face and head, and finally hugging him.
Some tears slip through my eyes, but I control my emotions, my years of being a queen has trained me enough to remain emotionless.
"Yes… do this enhancement of yours on me, son… I will try my best to help you however I can." I said with a smile.
-POV ends-
'Hmm, that wasn't as difficult as I expected… Now, should I really release father after a century? Sigh… I guess it doesn't matter anymore, I am way too strong now, and a century later… Asgard would be different' I thought, as I walked aimlessly through the palace of Asgard.
'hmmm, that's Hela's room… let's visit her too' And I walked towards her gate, not knowing what awaited me.
