"As I was saying, King Odin," a portly yet well-dressed man stood before the throne, addressing Odin. "I believe my son would make an excellent match for your royal daughter.

By uniting our houses, we can expand my family's cheese empire across the galaxy. The wealth we'd amass would be-"

Odin, exhausted and irritated, sat on his throne. He was already overdue for his Odin's sleep due to the delay caused by Thor's coronation interruption.

Now, he was compelled to listen to these bothersome diplomats vying for his favor. This intergalactic cheese merchant was not even the first one today seeking his daughter's hand...

To Odin's relief, the man's absurd rant was abruptly interrupted as the throne room doors swung open.

"King Odin!" Jake shouted, eliciting perplexed looks from everyone in the room. "You must come quickly; it's an emergency."

Judging by Jake's tone, Odin sensed the urgency of the situation. Weary, he rose from his throne and, accompanied by his wife, apologized to the dignitaries before hastening toward Jake outside the throne room.

"I must thank you, Jake, for rescuing me from these vultures," Odin remarked with a small chuckle.

Frigga, his wife, gave him a stern look, prompting him to add, "Perhaps next time, avoid screaming 'emergency' in front of the entire realm. That tends to incite panic. Now, what has you so flustered?"

Jake swiftly briefed Odin about the guard who informed him and Loki of the treasury raid, with Thor and his companions heading to Jotunheim to wage war while Loki rushed to stop them. Jake doubted if she would arrive in time to prevent the conflict.

Frigga gasped in shock at his tale. "Odin, this is dreadful! It could destabilize the entire realm!"

Meanwhile, Odin's anger flared. The vault had not been raided at all! As king, he would have been immediately aware of such an event.

Whoever this guard was, they had managed to deceive his naive son, potentially pushing them into a war the realm could ill afford at this time.

"Come," Odin urged, "we must make haste to the Bifrost immediately. Jake, you should join us.

" Turning to the two door guards, Odin commanded, "Have a detachment of men follow us to the Bifrost." The guards, now terrified by the gravity of the situation, were relieved they had allowed Jake into the throne room.

Jake found himself aboard a magnificent flying golden chariot, accompanied by Odin and Frigga. They raced across a mesmerizing rainbow bridge, heading towards the grandest waterfall he had ever seen.

The Bifrost was an awe-inspiring sight, just like the rest of Asgard. However, Jake couldn't help but think that they may have overdid it in the gold decor in certain areas.

Following the royal chariot were five others, each carrying ten fully armored and armed Asgardian soldiers.

The chariot touched down at the end of the rainbow bridge, and Jake, along with the king and queen, quickly disembarked and headed towards the Bifrost.

"Heimdall!" Odin called out urgently. "What is happening? Where are my children?"

Heimdall, the guardian of the realms, appeared resigned upon seeing his king and the multitude of soldiers. "My king, I apologize. Prince Thor informed me that he received a secret mission on Jotunheim under your orders.

It was only later, when the princess arrived shortly after I sent them off, that I realized I had been deceived. She went after them to stop their reckless actions. Unfortunately, Thor provoked a battle when he murdered a frost giant.

I can currently see them," he explained, his eyes glowing faintly. "They are currently fighting for their lives, surrounded by hundreds of frost giants.

The princess is badly injured, and Thor has narrowly avoided death multiple times against their relentless onslaught!" Jake wasn't exactly surprised at hearing Malfoy 3.0 someone pissed off an entire realm into wanting to kill him…

Jake was surprised to hear that Loki was badly hurt though. After all, she had effortlessly defeated him before. Just how tough were these frost giants?

"Open the Bifrost now!" Odin demanded. "I will retrieve my children." Heimdall complied, and Odin vanished through the radiant portal.

Left behind with Jake, Queen Frigga appeared deeply distraught. She was even crying a bit, fearing for her children's lives.

"It will be alright," Jake reassured her. "Isn't Odin incredibly powerful?"

The queen wiped away her tears. "I apologize for such a display," she said, waving off Jake's concern. Behind them, the fifty soldiers had also arrived and stood in formation.

Many of them appeared anxious, knowing the horrors of war. However, around half of the soldiers wore a peculiar grin, the same unsettling expression that the deceptive guard had worn...

Whoosh!

The Bifrost portal blazed back to life, and Odin emerged, looking even more exhausted than before. Following him were his two children, accompanied by Thor's friends. They all bore evident injuries.

Loki clutched her side, where she had clearly been stabbed and was bleeding heavily. Jake was relieved to see she was still alive at least. He didn't get to finish his spar with her yet.

Jake thought that everything had turned out alright given the circumstances and that they would be heading back soon, but that was not the case.

To Jake's surprise, instead of thanking him for saving his life, Thor turned to Odin and started heavily berating him.

"Father, why did you interfere? We could have won that fight! We could have slain Laufey and brought glory to Asgard!" He shouted at the King of Asgard in front of everyone.

"You foolish boy!" Odin exclaimed in response. "Do you realize what you have done? You allowed someone to easily deceive you and potentially ignite a war!"

Thor seemed unconcerned. "So what if that guard lied? When I become King, I will eradicate all the frost giants! Haven't they been the monsters in all our children's stories?

I was finally going to put an end to it, and you ruined everything!"

"You are a foolish and cruel boy," Odin declared firmly. "You would subject our realm to the horrors of war based on mere stories?"
