What is seen in mythologies, movies and tales is now right in front of you. There is no lie told tonight. A god is now way ahead of Mike. Everything is now possible. A new world is in front of the boy of just twenty. The man who was his teacher, friend, and sometimes even father is none other than an Asgardian god.

Odin's trump cards have been passed on for hundreds of years. His feats in war, conquests, prowess in battle. But he left all that aside to live on earth and teach Mike.

At this moment, Mike's feeling is that tonight he died, from now on he has been reborn. Everything he saw before could no longer be seen in the same way. And just as a person dies, it is possible to see his entire past, a whole life passes before him.

Thanks to this, it is possible for Mike to understand the reason for various attitudes, teachings, heavy training and medicinal herbs never seen coming from Woden. He saw the boy as his disciple or an equal. An Asgardian, which he really was halfway. His mother couldn't be an Asgardian because he saw a lot of her childhood pictures and met her parents. They reported several facts from his times, such as the games of the teams in Cleveland. It would be impossible for her to be an Asgardian.

A few questions regarding Odin and him over the years are answered in Mike's head. It's simple for you to solve equations with “x” or “y” if you know the value of at least one of them. Mike knew at least the value of "x" and would soon know "y". Woden and Bella still have more issues to be explained and mostly resolved.

Mike and his father never met, he left the day he was born. What has been seen as an act of cowardice all these years. But now everything has changed. Everything has a motive and a story behind it. Woden is the only one who can explain his past to me. Mike or Ivar's father needs to be saved now, even if he doesn't deserve it, he can't die or get away with everything he's done.

If he has killed a king, he will most certainly be executed in public. If he's guilty, there's nothing to be done. If he's innocent, Mike will be letting his father die without him explaining himself or having any remorse.

Woden, explain everything to me! Who was my father. Knowing this… I will decide whether I should help you or not! Why should I prevent war between Asgardians and giants? Tell me everything Woden me then I'll make my decision Right, Mike! It feels like the story is long!

Woden or Odin for Mike is still difficult to call him after years of only knowing Woden, who went from being his sensei to being god. The old man has to explain to Mike how things got to where they are now. And for this he started many years ago.

In the war at the Castle of Aegir, in which thanks to the agreement made between Odin and Lumnus. The giants managed to win the war against the surtrs, which was essential for the establishment of the peace to come. At the time, Lumnus somehow convinced Odin to ally with him. Valuable information was given in return for cooperation at the time. The location of a treasure that could be worth a lot to a kingdom.

An unknown treasure could have different meanings, it could be a valuable amount of currency that would serve for the growth of the kingdom, it could have an intellectual value, in which there would be information that was kept for thousands of years, such as prophecies or knowledge of the gods and lastly it could be a magic weapon. Possessing any of the options would be of great value and interest Odin greatly.

The information obtained by Lumnus said that the treasure was hidden in Midgard. Only the giant king knew the location. The breakthrough came with the victory over the surtrs. The last piece of the puzzle of the king of giants would come to an end and he would offer such an item in exchange for peace and help in this war. A very low price in Odin's view. For at the time he didn't expect peace to last so long and so solidly. To the point that the relationship between the two became harmonious. Something he saw as impossible.

Mike's father, Ivar, was a black man, tall and strong, like any Asgardian soldier, but he was fundamental and special. In terms of parameters, his physical strength and prominence in battle were the same as Ragnarson. But Ivar never achieved glory or trump cards in battle and that's why he doesn't have the same status as the giant warrior. He was always overshadowed by Thor, his sons Modi and Magni and lastly the king himself who was also a warrior.

This never entered Ivar's mind, to the point where he felt envy, lusted after evil, or even deserted his post and sought a kingdom that would welcome him as the warrior he was. His colleagues and superiors respected him for his strength and loyalty. His appreciation had reached a limit, and he knew he could never be granted the position of general or anything like that, as Thor and others had far more merit and strength than he did.

This made Ivar stagnant, he never complained. He gave his life for his kingdom in every battle, but the Asgardian warrior began to risk more in battle. As if he had a death wish or wanted to die as soon as possible. Your desire to live is gone.

Odin could only definitively realize this in the battle at Aegir's castle, in which he was unwise to die in battle. After the war he would talk to him and ask him to represent him in the search for the treasure. The Asgardian king believed he needed fresh air or seeing things simply and nothing better than Earth to provide that.

His mission would be to go to Midgard and retrieve the treasure that Lumnus reported existed. It would be him and a representative of the giants too. Odin assumed it would be Ragnarson. Since he is one of the Giants King's most trusted men and has a notorious reputation.

Arrangements are made and the two representatives are ready to go to Midgard to find the treasure. However, the night before, the respective kings had gone to speak with their representatives. They saw it as necessary for what this treasure could be. Even if they are trustworthy. The treasure was unknown and something could happen

In Odin's conversation with Ivar. He saw that it would take something more to convince him to live longer, as his life was worth a lot and he was important to his king and kingdom. Even if that was redundant and obvious. Ivar saw this in a superficial way. And so he had to do something about it.

Odin appears in Ivar's room and sees the warrior near the fireplace warming up on a chair. Ivar is immediately startled, as he did not expect his visit, it was expected that instructions would be given the following day. Ivar says to Odin:

My king... I didn't expect your presence today... I don't... Don't worry, Ivar! Today I am here as an equal! - The warrior stood up immediately and bowed as a form of respect, but Odin motions with his hands showing that he can be calm. Okay, his kindness overflows limits!

The king approaches him and pulls a chair too to start the conversation. Odin gets comfortable and stretches his hands towards the fire. Which immediately scares Ivar. Despite being who he was he felt hunger, cold and feelings common to others.

Tonight, Odin tried to be as simple as possible. He couldn't speak to Ivar as his superior or authority. Dealing with this should be in the way the warrior sees him as an equal. This is the first time Odin has seen a situation like this. a warrior who has lost his soul, his will to fight which consequently is the will to live.

Ivar, do you know why I put you on this quest? No sir! But I assumed that others couldn't… Well... I think you would like to see Midgard... A place of peace, where people don't have to worry about war or if they will die. Sir, I don't need dis… Go there, get the treasure from Ragnarson and I'll send some son of mine to fetch the artifact or whatever! Stay a few days there. See how things are… It will be good for you! Alright my king!

Odin puts a hand on Ivar's shoulder and looks him in the eye for a few seconds. Showing sympathy and trust for those who have an important task to be done the next day.

Before I forget, I want to give you this! -Odin takes the sword he carried with him and hands it to Ivar. What is it ? It's yours now!

Ivar looks at the sword he has just received as a gift from Odin and is impressed by what he sees. It has a scabbard on top, but you can see it has been well cut and has an aesthetically beautiful cuff with four carved stones. On the left the stone was green, on the right purple, on the south end it was yellow and finally in the middle it was red.

The scabbard of the sword is white and gold with designs of the sea, ships, warriors. As told the story of basically every Asgardian warrior. Extremely beautiful. Now, the most important thing was the metal. Ivar abruptly unsheathes out of curiosity that lets himself be cut lightly at the wrist. Apparently a quality metal.

He unsheathes completely and sees that his sword is made of a rare Niflheim metal, Mithril. Which makes him automatically widen his eyes at such kindness coming from his king to him. Receiving this sword is the greatest honor for a warrior like him.

Odin hopes that with this gift, he will see that he really recognizes and needs him. He doesn't just see Ivar as an object of killing or a means to an end. This sword means he is important to the future of the kingdom.

My king… What's the name? "The gift scared Ivar so much that he forgot it could be informal tonight." This is Ulfberht Amazing!

He raises the sword over his shoulders so he can see her as a whole. The warrior never tires of being impressed and admiring. He now notices that he has some runes inscribed on the metal of the sword. Ivar cannot read, but he recognizes the written form. It's an ancient language that few can read.

What is inscribed here? Strength and wisdom Wisdom? Yes, A warrior has to know not only how to use strength, but also his head. In difficult moments, where there is no way out. Using your head can help you. Not everything is brute force. The qualifications of a warrior come from the combination of both characteristics in harmony. I understand. Thank you very much! I will follow these ideals for the rest of my life! I hope so! I trust you tomorrow!

Odin gets up and puts his hand on Ivar's shoulder again, this time in a farewell tone. He walks towards the bedroom door and leaves his representative's quarters for the upcoming mission. While Ivar sits watching and touching his sword. The Asgardian night comes to an end.

Meanwhile, in Jotunheim, in the realm of giants. Lumnus will speak to Ragnarson and give instructions for the upcoming mission. He knocks on the giant warrior's room who opens it and calls him inside. The room is all tidy. A visit was already expected to touch up the last details.

King Lumus! Ragnarson… Let's have a seat - they both sit at the table the warrior has in his room. Apparently the conversation is going to be a long one. What do you order? Very well… You know that tomorrow you will search for the hidden treasure in Midgard. I ask for complete care. We don't know what kind of treasure will come! It could be a simple artifact or even a weapon as strong as Mjolnir! Lumnus! How can you accept an exchange like that? The possibility of such a powerful object falling into the hands of Asgard... would make them the most sovereign kingdom over others. You won't understand now, Ragnarson! But know this is important for the future of our kingdom and others! What ? Trust me! I only ask this. I trust you with my life, King Lumnus! Thank you! Anyway, Tomorrow I will make the map and you will find the treasure. You will have the company of Ivar. I didn't expect it to be him, but they cooperated together and brought it back to Asgard. Understood! You will go to Asgard tomorrow and use Bifrost to get to Midgard! It is of utmost importance that you bring the treasure here intact. Keep the Asgardian from getting greedy for the treasure should it occur. It was complicated, but I managed to get Odin to follow my demands. If everything is followed to the letter. Everything will go well! What's the problem with Ivar? Well… it came to my attention that he was suicidal. I wanted this to happen in battles. So, he was leaving with no care whatsoever with the intention of dying. From his point of view that was honorable. Um… I'll keep an eye on him, sir! Thanks for your services!

Lumnus leaves Ragnarson's room and leaves. The king does not go towards his room. Instead, he walks through the castle. Going around and around. This was common. He believed that he thought better when he walked, that the blood flowing made him think better. What the king was thinking at that moment no one knew.

The next day, Ragnarson and Ivar are together in Bifrost, prepared to go to Midgard to retrieve the artifact. Both are dressed like the humans who live there. As they are not used to it, they are uncomfortable. Though Asgardians and giants don't meddle in the affairs of Midgard humans. They have vast knowledge of their habits and culture, which cannot be said otherwise. Humans know very little and only very old legends.

Both are dressed in suits, work together. They will be in the transit city. The entire disguise and execution has already been previously orchestrated. From the best warriors of both of the kingdoms. A successful mission is more than expected. There will be no need for killings or battles as far as is known. Item recovery only.

Trips there require special care. There are rules to be obeyed to stay in the realm called Earth. Like not revealing information from here, taking advantage of their knowledge to gain advantages, killing humans and creating permanent bonds with them. There were other rules, but basically these are the most important.

Lumnus approaches Ragnarson and hands him a paper, which contains the location and instructions for finding the treasure. The warrior and Ivar take a look at him and see that the description is somewhat vague. Which would make the job more difficult than expected. The two look towards Lumnus with a confused expression. The king knows immediately.

I know the information passed does not lead directly to the treasure, but it is worth noting that it is very old, so a lot has changed. The civilization of Midgard has come a long way in recent years. In terms of quantity and quality. You will have to work with what you have. Right! - The two nod their heads and conclude the conversation. I trust you for this mission! May the gods be with you! - Odin, who said nothing, approaches the men and says Be very careful! Don't forget the rules! Get back safely.

The kings distance themselves so that the transfer can begin. A strong light falls on the two warriors. A blue light. The light intensifies, until the two are no longer in front of the kings. The teleport to Midgard has just been completed. lumnus and Odin look at each other, no one speaks for a few seconds. Until the old bearded man breaks the silence.

How about we have wine? Sure, why not?
