"Odin's blessing?"
Fenris blinked. Before he could figure out what that actually meant, Odin suddenly rose from the throne.
Though he was already old, his body was still tall and powerfully built. His dignified face looked like that of an aging lion king, still carrying an inviolable majesty.
"Thump! Thump! Thump!"
Dull knocks rang out. The palace suddenly lit up with dazzling golden divine light. In the blink of an eye, Fenris's vision was completely filled by the radiance of the Odinforce.
"From this day forth, you shall receive the protection of Odin, the great All-Father. Upon you shall rest the blessing of the God-King."
"In times of hardship and crisis, the mighty Odinforce shall save you from danger. The gods shall favor you. Light shall forever walk beside you, and evil powers shall never draw near."
A majestic, low voice rang out. The dazzling golden light passed through the rune barrier surrounding Asgard's palace, crossed the dimensional portal personally opened by Odin, and shone entirely upon Fenris.
For a time, Fenris's entire body began to glow. A warm sensation poured endlessly through his skin and deep into his body.
An incomparable comfort surged through him. Fenris felt a gentle yet faintly domineering power enter his body. Very quickly, it spread through his entire form and even began spilling outward beyond his skin.
At the same time, the hell power and Dark Dimension power within Fenris, which had originally been overwhelmingly domineering and incompatible with each other, suddenly became unusually docile before this Odinforce descending from above. As if by prior agreement, they curled in on themselves and fled into the corners of Fenris's body, making space for the Odinforce.
The energy conflict that had troubled Fenris for months was temporarily pacified in such an unbelievable manner through the action of the Odinforce.
"So this is the blessing of a God-King?"
The countless G-cells that had been constantly resolving the conflict between his powers suddenly gained some breathing room. Fenris only felt his body become exceptionally light. The two formerly obscure powers became so easy to control in an instant. As his fingertips turned, two utterly incompatible forces were easily manipulated in the palm of his hand.
The hell power and Dark Dimension power were directly connected to Godzilla's power. They were the most fundamental and core forces that caused Godzilla's form to change. If he could use them freely, did that not mean he could completely and without burden fleece Dormammu and Mephisto, without needing to worry about any side effects?
"The essence of these powers is extremely high. This present calm is only temporary. As long as you continue growing stronger, the energy conflict will be unavoidable until the day you fully master them."
As if seeing through Fenris's thoughts, Odin incisively pointed out the essence of the problem Fenris currently faced. "The Sorcerer Supreme can also do something like this, but she did not. I imagine that was part of her consideration."
"I see."
Odin's strength exceeded Fenris's by several dimensions. With a single sentence, it was as if Fenris had received sudden enlightenment, and he completely understood the words the Ancient One had once spoken.
Odin's blessing now served the same purpose as that God-created Spirit of Vengeance. It bought him time.
"Thank you, merciful All-Father."
Having received such a benefit and having his chronic problem resolved, Fenris thanked him sincerely.
"There is no need."
Under Fenris's surprised gaze, Odin once again raised Gungnir in his hand. The golden spear angled toward Fenris, and a beam of golden light lit up at its tip. Crossing an immeasurably vast distance, it passed through the dimensional portal and struck Fenris with precision.
"There's more?"
Fenris was suddenly startled.
"This is also part of the blessing. Feel it carefully."
Odin's voice came with a hint of amusement. As the golden light entered his body, Fenris closed his eyes.
It was the same Odinforce as before. But this time, the Odinforce changed its target and headed straight for the Atomic Furnace within Fenris.
"What is it trying to do?"
Fenris froze.
Although he already possessed three extremely powerful Titan powers, the Atomic Furnace was still the true foundation of his strength and the core of his being. How could he possibly allow an outside power to touch it so easily?
Fenris's thoughts shifted. Deep within his consciousness, the Titan Codex trembled violently. On the page belonging to Godzilla, a wisp-like power, so faint it seemed as though it would scatter with a single breath, quietly emerged and gently protected the Atomic Furnace within.
However, just as Fenris began protecting himself in advance, that domineering Odinforce suddenly scattered inside his body, turning into countless brilliant specks of golden light.
These golden lights seemed to possess wills of their own. Very quickly, they began wrapping themselves around the Atomic Furnace.
"Could it be…"
Fenris paused, suddenly beginning to understand the intent behind this power.
Around the Atomic Furnace, which was operating at full speed, countless strands of black divine power radiating dense dark energy fluctuations were currently circling like a nebula.
This was the Black Panther divine power Fenris had once obtained from the divine realm of the Black Panther Goddess Bast. But because the gap in strength between them had been too vast, Fenris's body had been exceptionally slow in digesting this power. So despite so much time having passed, more than two-thirds still remained.
However, the instant the golden light formed from the Odinforce arrived there, the Black Panther divine power that had originally been almost stagnant suddenly seemed to encounter some terrifying existence. Like it was fleeing for its life, it surged madly into the Atomic Furnace.
For a time, the Atomic Furnace's operating speed skyrocketed by several levels. The divine power that had accumulated in the past was now refined as easily as drinking cold water. In only a short while, more than half of it had already been absorbed.
As the Black Panther divine power gradually withdrew, the golden Odinforce replaced it, turning into stardust that circled the Atomic Furnace.
As time passed, the Black Panther divine power was completely absorbed. The moment all the Odinforce settled into place, a surging wave of divine power suddenly erupted from inside Fenris and swept out in every direction.
An unprecedented sense of fullness flooded his entire body. At that moment, Fenris felt his already powerful physique undergo another exponential surge.
He lightly clenched his fist and shifted his foot. The solid earth beneath him now seemed as fragile as a marsh, as if he would sink completely into it with the slightest exertion.
Fortunately, after gaining G-cells, Fenris's adaptability had soared. Very quickly, he became accustomed to his new body.
However…
"Kree—"
Just as Fenris thought everything had completely ended, a crisp cry he had not heard in a long time suddenly rang out.
"Whoosh!"
A pair of incomparably massive wings of light unfurled behind him, producing a soft and pleasant sound.
The absorbed Black Panther divine power surged out from Fenris's body at this moment, all of it flowing into that beautiful pair of wings shimmering with seven-colored radiance.
The edges of the wings, originally as thin as cicada wings, suddenly began glowing with a faint black light. At a speed visible to the naked eye, they became hard and heavy.
With a shift of Fenris's will, the wings lightly swept outward, and the edges instantly brought with them the sound of a violent gale.
