Chapter 1069: Chapter 26: The Unreasonable Dungeon_2

After all, besides lies and trickery, the God of Mischief is also the most outstanding Trickster and Night Wanderer, Shapeshifter and Mage...

So regarding this nature of power, even if using the simplest classification method, it indeed seems suitable for the Magician incarnation to master it.

Considering the peculiar situation in the Great Void, temporarily borrowing power might not be very safe, so the Magician had to come personally.

In times of extreme boredom, he tried again and again to use this divine power, attempting to see if there could be any marvelous effect resonating with the root of divine power, pointing a way for himself in this Great Void, which is better than searching aimlessly like finding a needle in a haystack... However, strangely enough, this divine power became vaguely active once learning the truth before.

Yet now, as he truly entered this Great Void to seek the ultimate source of information disturbance, it instead showed no movement...

He lightly shook his head, the Magician pondered for a moment, while also seriously contemplating on the situation of the original owner of this power.

Although he had thought about it before, his knowledge and understanding could not compare with today, leading to naturally different insights and realizations.

—Loki.

—Undoubtedly, this is a famous name, renowned and resounding.

Especially in this mythical universe, and in the parallel universes and countless subspaces disrupted and radiated by the information from this mythological origin... In short, as long as Nordic Mythology dominates the timeline and the prevailing worldview upstream, the name of this Evil God is an unavoidable element.

Evil God.

Not just because he is the God of Mischief, but also in the literal sense of being an evil divine spirit.

It seems really hard to find another deity more cunning and evil than this one. Throughout the developmental trajectory of Nordic Mythology, from the beginning of everything, to the flourishing prosperity, to Balder’s death leading to Fimbulwinter, and finally to the burning of Valhalla Celestial Palace in flames, where the gods and the entire Nordic world head toward their doomed end...

Basically, it can be said that this Evil God’s figure runs through it all, always playing an extremely crucial role.

It is said that initially, Loki’s mischief was benign, but due to the gods’ rejection, he gradually went to another extreme, escalating further... Gu Mo was not aware if there’s more complex reasons involved, but after witnessing this tragic mythical ancient battlefield, he had new thoughts.

Perhaps upon careful consideration—

There might be the influence of the irreconcilable hatred and prejudice between the gods and the giants.

After all, Loki was born from the Giant Race, enemies of the gods, but sworn as a brother in blood to Odin, which allowed him to become part of the Aesir Race, becoming one of the supreme gods in Asgard within the Nine Realms.

However, to understand, let alone the mortal enmity between the gods and the giants, even among the Divine Race themselves, there has been a vast period of mutual loathing — through countless ages, the war fires between the Aesir Race and the Vanir Race could be said to have almost scorched the world sustained by branches and springs.

Until all gods grew weary of this protracted war, both sides finally signed a peace treaty.

But various conflicts remained, with major clashes averted but minor disputes never ceasing.

Even between the two Divine Races, such prejudices and hostility are inevitable, so it’s imaginable the awkward situation Loki faced, being born from the Giant Race... After all, long before creation began, from when Odin and his brothers joined forces to kill the ancestor of giants, Ymir, and used his body to create the world, the Divine Race and the Giant Race were already irreconcilable enemies.

Precisely because of this, it is said that the straight-laced Aesir gods found Loki particularly detestable, especially the loyal Heimdall and the War God Tyr, to the extent of hatred, often showing anger when meeting.

It is hard to confirm whether it was Loki’s overly outrageous actions that resulted in further rejection within the Aesir Race...

Or was it the other way around?

But one thing is certain, and that is at that time, the seed of disaster was probably already sown... Perhaps even Odin actually didn’t trust his sworn brother, because when he foresaw Loki’s three offspring after sitting on the supreme throne, he immediately and decisively banished Hela to Niflheim, threw Jörmungandr into the cold sea, and took Fenrir up to the heavens for custody.

The God King foresaw the Twilight of the Gods, wanting to prevent this fate.

He knew that Loki’s three children would be the most terrifying enemies of the gods, hence made such a decision.

However... His actions seemed to ultimately contribute to the emergence of this fate, with the total falling out between the two brothers, turning into strangers, probably starting from that moment.
