I'm a hero in Marvel

Chapter 45: Making a Covenant

"What right do you have to discuss the throne of Asgard with me? You are just a mortal, not even a voter of Asgard. Don't you think your words are ridiculous?" Loki sat on the sofa with a disdainful smile on his lips.

It seemed that he didn't think Li Jie could help him. However, after hearing what Loki said, Li Jie smiled because he heard some hidden meanings, which were accidentally revealed by Loki even though he tried to conceal them carefully.

"So, you still want to be the king of Asgard, right?" Li Jie said firmly: "You just doubted whether I could help you ascend the throne, but you didn't directly refuse. This shows that you still have great ambitions for the throne, right, Loki!"

Loki clenched his fist quickly, but soon released it: "I am just laughing at your arrogance, please don't take it too seriously."

"Really? When you gave the Thunder Saber to me through Valkyrie, was it really just to thank me for taking care of you for a short period of time on Earth, and for my later care for Thor?" If Li Jie was only 50% sure of convincing Loki before, then the test just now gave him the answer he wanted.

Now, he was more than 80% confident in persuading Loki. Li Jie sat opposite Loki with ease and said slowly: "I don't think a quasi-artifact-level weapon would be worthless, otherwise Thor would not rush in with only a big axe. Of course, it may also be that Odin wanted to train him."

"This is just a gift from Asgard, please don't make random guesses." Loki responded to Li Jie as if nothing had happened.

"Really? I thought this was a trap you set for Thor, and it was your first move to negotiate terms with me. I don't know how you will find me in the future if I don't mention this. But I really don't believe there is a free lunch." Li Jie shrugged while sitting on the dragon leather sofa.

"You have repeatedly emphasized the importance of equal exchange. This is the rule of transactions between gods. It is no exception for believers. Only piety can obtain God's grace and forgiveness." Li Jie looked directly at Loki and said.

Loki was twiddling his thumbs on the sofa in boredom, seemingly uninterested in Li Jie's words. But Li Jie knew that his words might have touched Loki.

After all, Valkyrie also said that Loki was very busy now and didn't have much time to chat with him.

"Like the silver you collected after your first visit to Earth. You told me many stories about the Midgard Serpent. I don't know much about these, and neither does Thor. But I believe you know those things. Thor once praised you as the smartest in Asgard."

Hearing his brother's praise, Loki smiled indifferently, making it hard to guess what he was thinking.

"Maybe we were all confused by the information of the Midgard Serpent. You even made Thor believe that only he could kill the monster. You helped him escape from the prison in Asgard at the risk of your life. It was really clever!" Li Jie praised.

"You didn't do anything unnecessary. You just did it out of concern for your elder brother and to achieve his glory. In the entire Asgard, even Odin can't find any flaws in you in this matter."

"Therefore, Thor's impulsiveness will make Odin dislike him even more, while your brotherly love has won the admiration of Odin and others. Perfect! For you, Thor may be the biggest obstacle to your ascension to the throne!"

"Over the years, he has been the main force of the army, leading Asgard to victory after victory. He has a high prestige, superior military strength, and is the eldest son of Asgard. It seems reasonable for him to inherit the throne. You can hardly see any chance."

"But the world is so coincidental. After you tricked Thor into coming down to the human world, the dark elves and frost giants attacked the elven kingdom. So Loki had the opportunity to show his abilities. You can prove that you are better than Thor. You can even say that without you, Loki, Thor is just a useless waste!"

Li Jie's words are logically clear.

But this is all based on the fact that Loki really wants to be the king of Asgard and is a man who is good at forbearance and wisdom. Li Jie is not sure whether Loki is as he inferred. If Loki in this world is a good boy, then his assumptions will not hold true.

What made Li Jie feel relieved was that Loki had not shown any dissatisfaction so far. This meant that there was still room for negotiation. It could even be said that he was still the ambitious Loki!

Papapapa! After listening to Li Jie's words, Loki clapped his hands: "Excellent reasoning. If Thor is half as smart as you, I'll be relieved. However, as you said, if I'm so good, does Thor still have a chance to become king?"

"Moreover, by making such speculations, you are destroying the relationship between Thor and me. Aren't you afraid that I will kill you now? Believe me, even if I kill you with this reason, Ancient One will not blame me!" Loki said, gently patting the Sword of Truth he carried with him.

"To be honest, Loki, I don't want to beat around the bush with you. Brothers fighting each other is not a good plot. I have no objection to your pursuit of power and ambition." Li Jie felt that he had said everything he needed to say, so now he should get straight to the point.

"Asgard needs you! You can lead Asgard to prosperity. Earth needs Thor! The mortal world needs a true god. I don't want to see you and Thor become enemies, nor do I want to be your enemy. It would be foolish to go against you, and that's not what I want."

"You are indeed very smart now, but who says that a salted fish can't turn over a new leaf? What if Thor can really let go of his past arrogance and humbly learn the things he used to disdain. When he becomes the God of Thunder and understands the way of the king, do you still have a chance to become king?"

Li Jie watched the smile on Loki's face gradually disappear. Regardless of his embarrassed expression, he continued, "The only way is to make Thor give up the throne of Asgard and set new goals for him. Let the earth become his home. Only when he stops competing with you, you will have a chance to realize your ambition and desire for power!"

Loki stood up suddenly when he heard this, walked to the living room window, looked out at the neatly-organized army, and suddenly he drew out his real sword.

The sword flashed with cold light, and a mighty pressure emanated from the sword. There was no place for falsehood to hide, and in front of this real sword, no deception could be hidden.

Li Jie was a little nervous because this world was very different from what he knew and he couldn't accurately guess Loki's thoughts. What he did and said now was quite risky.

Only a small part of these ideas were influenced by the previous movies, and more were based on the information I had about Loki in this world and my speculation as a bystander.

Loki drew out the Sword of Truth, and pointed the tip of the sword at Li Jie, as if ready to end his life at any time: "You are wrong! Everything I do is not for power and ambition!"

"Huh?" Li Jie was a little surprised. At this moment, Loki was holding the Sword of Truth in his hand and couldn't lie. In other words, this Loki really had no ambition? Li Jie felt that he had made a big mistake!

"Everything I do is to prove that I, the God of Lies and Trickery, have never lost to anyone! My value should not be ignored for boring reasons! I think and act for myself and for Asgard!" Loki swore solemnly.

"Huh?" This Loki is really different from what he knew. But despite the different motives, Li Jie doesn't care now, because the result is the same. This Loki still covets the throne.

"Do you dare to swear and ally with me for everything you said!" Loki pointed his real sword at Li Jie, looking very serious. He asked Li Jie to ally with him and make Thor give up the throne sincerely and dedicate the rest of his life to the earth.

As long as Thor is still under control and Li Jie does not violate the agreement, Loki will become Li Jie's ally and assist him in completing this plan.

Due to the influence of the Sword of Truth, an equal contract was proposed, and Li Jie agreed without hesitation.

"Hold the sword of truth and make a covenant with me!" Loki held the sword and motioned Li Jie to hold the end of the hilt.

Li Jie looked at Loki and nodded, then held the Sword of Truth. However, before Li Jie was about to follow Loki in reading the covenant, he finally discovered what was different about Loki in this world.

Many inexplicable things, such as why Odin, Frigga and others loved Loki so much instead of their own son Thor, were now explained.

Because at the moment of grasping the Sword of Truth, the power of the Sword of Truth revealed the truth, and Li Jie saw a different Loki, not a slightly weak and feminine male Loki.

She was a noble goddess with peerless beauty and heroic spirit! Li Jie understood everything at this moment. Loki was a goddess!

The smell of blood and frost was as thick as the thick, lingering fermentation smell in a closed cellar, rushing straight into the nose, irritating the lungs in the most pungent, irritating, and unbearable way. If you don't like or are not used to this strong sexual smell, your first reaction when you smell it is probably to vomit.

Like many people who are not used to drinking, as long as they step into the underground wine cellar used for fermentation and smell the alcohol molecules floating in the air, they will feel intoxicated.

Frigga was used to this smell. As Odin's wife, she was used to the strong sexual smell of her husband every time he returned from battle.

The one sleeping peacefully in the cradle was her son, Thor, who was less than three years old. He was much stronger and more active than other children. It was rare to see him sleeping so peacefully and lovingly.

Every mother wants her child to grow up healthy and strong. Frigga was somewhat dissatisfied with Odin's swaggering appearance in Asgard.

Because the strong sexual aura on his body and the frosty smell left by the battle with the Frost Giants just now might hurt the young Thor.
