Foolish Brother Odin

Chapter 117: Come and meet me
The Aesir were all judged by appearance, and they naturally hated ugly male giants. But when Odin heard Mimir's words, he immediately found this old giant with a crooked mouth and eyes and a hunched back much more pleasing to the eye.

"Go on!" Odin ordered in an irrefutable tone.

Mimir gritted his teeth, carefully considered his words, hesitated for a long time, and continued: "The Aesir have no enemies. This is a good thing, but also a bad thing."

"How to say?"

Mimir touched his slightly Mediterranean bald head and sighed, "When there are external enemies, the Aesir can still unite to face them. Once there are no external enemies, some internal conflicts cannot be suppressed."

"For example?" Odin's single eye showed an extremely aggressive look, as if his eyes could see through Mimir's chest and his heart. He seemed to be warning how miserable Mimir was with only a head left.

Mimir's facial muscles twitched, and he looked like he had a toothache, but he still contributed his wisdom: "His Majesty Tangs did not establish a queen, nor did he establish Balder, who had a purer bloodline, as the crown prince. Instead, he preferred the bastard in the eyes of the Aesir - the eldest son Thor, the god of thunder!"

Odin said disdainfully: "Those pure-blooded Aesir gods are old and useless. Except for a few goddesses who are okay, the rest are not powerful at all."

"At least they represent orthodoxy! If they make a scene, it will distract His Majesty Tang Si's attention and make him ignore many things."

"for example?"

"Giants! More frost giants! What if, with your deliberate indulgence, Odin, there are enough frost giants to form a country?"

Odin suddenly understood.

Why did the Aesir suppress the giants and slaughter them, killing one if they saw one, or taking them for their own use?

Don’t you see Downs doing this to humans?
To put it bluntly, the Frost Giants are powerful enough to pose a certain threat to the Aesir!

Hearing this, Odin understood: "What else?"

"Still... I'm sorry, my lord, I haven't thought of it for the time being." Mimir lowered his head guiltily, not daring to look Odin in the face, fearing that Odin would see that he was trying to give up.

"Then go and think about it! I want to hear more constructive ideas from you within three days."

"Yes." Mimir nodded bitterly.

Odin couldn't contain his excitement when he saw Mimir leave.

He trembled with excitement at the thought of ascending the throne of the gods and enjoying the worship of all the gods and giants.

That fateful episode was so short that Odin was unsure of many things.

This does not prevent Odin from imagining further. If he is the King of Gods, then does Frigga become his Queen, Freya become his lover, or even Balder, who has an excellent reputation among the gods, is the prince destined to inherit his throne?
Thinking of this, Odin was excited at first, but then an irrepressible anger surged from his heart.

"So, doesn't that mean that my elder brother has taken away my throne as the God King, as well as my harem and my sons?"

Odin felt it was extremely absurd at first, but gradually, he began to hypnotize himself and felt that this was another true destiny of the world!
At this moment, his guilt towards his elder brother disappeared without a trace, as if it had never existed.

……

After coming out of the gate of Odin's fake golden palace, Mimir felt numb all over.

My ancestor!
Why did the Aesir have to encounter such a mess?

Isn’t it good for everyone to live in harmony?
No one understands the horror of Tangs better than the wise giant Mimir!
Other beings drink the wisdom fountain to increase their wisdom limit, but when Tang Si drinks it, it is purely to increase his knowledge and experience. Tang Si's wisdom has long surpassed the times.

Mimir, who was guarding the Fountain of Wisdom, knew this very well, and he was even less optimistic about Odin. Seeing that there was no one around, Mimir could no longer hold back his desire to mutter, "Foolish Odin! With your wisdom, you want to fight His Majesty the God King?"

Mimir didn't seem to notice that on the top of the pine tree next to him, there were two small scarlet eyes staring at him.

"Huh? Why do I feel like there's sight?" Mimir, who had a very keen sense, looked towards the treetops but didn't see anything: "Well, I'm probably overthinking it."

Two days later, another giant appeared in the glacier. In the eyes of others, Odin took action as a matter of course, riding on his Pegasus, holding his magic spear, and bringing his only two sons, Hoder and Vali, who were able to fight.

In Mimir's opinion, this is a rare opportunity!
Maybe this is his last chance.

He left Odin's castle quietly without asking any servants to follow him. He made up his mind that if he was caught by Odin, he would say that he missed his daughter and wanted to go back to see Verdan.

His blood relationship with Odin is his last resort.

Even if the truth came to light, he estimated that Odin would not dare to kill him publicly.

Mimir moved towards the Rainbow Bridge with seemingly slow steps, five meters at a time. The Rainbow Bridge was not near Odin's palace, which could not be helped, after all, the Rainbow Bridge, Odin's castle, and the glacier were in a straight line. Odin wanted to protect Asgard, so he could not let the guys in the glacier come out and kill them in the God's Domain.

Odin and Downs didn't expect that the glacier did not move, but the place where the cow Odumbra licked the glacier kept changing, which caused the current position of the three to be more like an equilateral triangle.

Just when Mimir was only three kilometers away from the Rainbow Bridge, suddenly, several fully armed frost giants appeared from behind a small hill on the side of the road.

Mimir panicked. He quickly smiled and said, "Oh, I can actually see my compatriots here. I am the wise giant Mimir..."

The old wise giant could not continue speaking because he saw that the eyes of these giants were red and their faces were full of crazy murderous intent!
"Traitor! Traitor!"

"Kill the traitor—"

"Ah ah ah ah ah--"

These ragged giants, holding the crudest stone knives and axes, rushed forward roaring.

On the surface, these giants seemed to be cursing Mimir for betraying the giants and joining the evil Aesir.

Only Mimir himself knows clearly that the word traitor can actually mean many things.

Looking at the huge axe that was rapidly growing in size in his field of vision, Mimir smiled bitterly.

No matter how smart you are, you can be knocked down with one axe.

Without the protection of force, even the wisest man is nothing but a lamb.

If he were a mortal, the old Mimir might have been able to fight. But facing his stupid and powerful compatriots, Mimir was too lazy to even resist.

His fate was probably determined from the day he stepped out of Odin's fake golden palace, no, it should be from the day he reluctantly followed Odin to Jotunheim.

……

"What? Mimir was attacked and killed?" When Odin received the news, he had just led his two sons and a group of men to defeat a group of 20 giants. He shouted in surprise.

After a brief moment of surprise, Odin looked very sad: "He is my uncle!"
