"Why do I have to become like this?" Luo Ji wasn't satisfied with her current appearance. She put on the Phantom Cloak that Odin had given her. This divine artifact directly concealed and concealed her original appearance.
What was originally a beautiful girl had turned into an ordinary boy. Luo Ji didn't like it. Therefore, she asked her mother, Frigga, in confusion.
"Because you're too outstanding, my baby." Frigga hugged little Luo Ji and kissed her a few times. "You're far more outstanding than the average child, even if they're Gods."
"Isn't that good?" Luo Ji was confused.
"Of course not, my little Luo Ji. It's just that it will cause a lot of trouble. For your brother, Thor, "Frigga explained softly. She couldn't tell Luo Ji the truth because of the Frost Giant's aura on her body. That was why she had to hide herself.
"For Thor's what?" Luo Ji was still confused.
Frigga smiled. She and Odin had discussed what kind of excuse they should use to tell Luo Ji about this. She and Odin treated Luo Ji like a child.
Perhaps it was because of Luo Ji's cute appearance. Her angelic appearance always made people lower their guard. Frigga and Odin didn't expect that their clumsy excuse would have such a big impact in the future.
"Because you're too outstanding. Even smarter than Thor. Do you know what it means for a girl to have all this? "Frigga asked Luo Ji.
Luo Ji shook her head. She didn't know what was so bad about it. Frigga said patiently, "Because of Thor's identity. He's the prince of Asgard. He'll be the King of Gods in the future.
He has to be more outstanding than the other children of his age. Otherwise, he won't be able to convince the masses. " Frigga felt that Luo Ji wouldn't understand what she was saying, so she said something that she thought Luo Ji would understand.
"As a sister, you're too outstanding. Thor will be nothing compared to you. Just like the magic you used that day. Your control over magic is almost the same as many adult Gods. No one has ever done so well at your age. "
"So, I have to be that big idiot's foil? He's so stupid. Why didn't he let me be the King of Asgard in the future? "Luo Ji pouted her lips in dissatisfaction.
"Silly child." Frigga smiled. "Asgard has never had a female king. Since Thor was willing to risk his life to win the Elven Hidden Blade in order to please you. Just give in to your silly brother once in a while! "
Frigga knew that even though Luo Ji was disgusted by the muddy dagger, Frigga knew. But after washing it clean, he still put it into his own collection.
Although Luo Ji's mouth was sharp, she was actually soft-hearted. Thinking about this, Frigga couldn't help but kiss Little Luo Ji again.
Compared to her real son, Frigg doted on Luo Ji more. There was no need to doubt this. Even Odin, who was hesitant to kill Luo Ji, had started to pamper her after eight years.
Since Luo Ji was a girl, Odin didn't put up his guard against her. If Luo Ji was a boy, Odin might have put up his guard and be biased towards Thor.
But because Luo Ji was a girl, Odin naturally broke down his guard. Especially since Luo Ji was unusually clever, compared to her troublemaking and worrisome brother Thor, Odin and his wife liked her more.
So, Odin didn't hesitate to give Luo Ji the divine artifact Phantom Cloak as her eighth birthday present.
As for why he disguised Luo Ji as a little boy, Odin had a deeper consideration. Odin couldn't guarantee that no outsider would know that his sister had given birth to a daughter for Lao Fei.
Odin wanted to completely cut off the connection between Luo Ji and the Frost Giants. He wanted to treat Luo Ji as his own daughter, a member of Asgard.
If he calculated the time it took for Odin to defeat the Frost Giants and return to the divine territory, it would be too much of a coincidence. Odin didn't want too many accidents to happen.
He had already calculated that letting Luo Ji hide her identity as a boy was only temporary. When Thor could take care of himself, he would give up his position as the King of Gods. He would pass his position to Thor.
And that would be the day when Luo Ji's identity would be revealed. Odin had made all sorts of preparations for that day. But just like the old saying: Plans can't keep up with changes.
Odin and Frigga were both good. As Gods, they were exceptionally powerful. But as parents, they were still lacking a little. Odin's education of Thor was a failure.
He wanted to educate Thor into an excellent ruler, but there were all sorts of problems in the process.
Thor's stubbornness was the biggest problem. But Odin didn't know that a bigger problem had already been laid down.
He and Frigga weren't good liars. In this aspect, they couldn't compare to Luo Ji. Just like what was mentioned before, as long as it was a lie, there would be a flaw.
And if there was a flaw, more lies would be needed to fill it up. From then on, it would fall into a vicious cycle.
… …
Today was an ordinary day in Asgard. The people of the Divine Realm were living their normal lives. Luo Ji, who was disguised as Loki, was drinking mead in the famous tavern in the Divine Realm, Harvest Celebration.
It had been more than ten years since she returned from the Summer Palace. More than ten years ago, she returned to Asgard as the Second Prince of Asgard. Odin announced that this was the second son he and Frigga had in the Summer Palace.
The Divine Realm held a grand celebration to welcome their second prince.
After more than ten years, Luo Ji was no longer the ignorant little girl from back then. She understood what Frigga had meant when she had spoken to her.
An Asgardian woman couldn't be a King. As the Second Princess, she performed far better than her stupid brother. Then where would Thor's prestige be?
Perhaps many other Gods would laugh at Thor's incompetence. He was the only heir of Asgard!
And what was worse was if Thor suffered a blow and lost his confidence. Would he be able to smoothly take over Asgard in the future? These were all sorts of problems.
Luo Ji matured far faster than the average person. She deeply understood this point. Now that she understood this, as Loki, as Thor's "younger brother." She was very low-key.
"Loki! Drinking again? "The person who came to greet her was Thor's childhood playmate, one of the Valkyries, Heve.
Luo Ji glanced at Heve, took a sip of mead, and asked with a smile, "You didn't go to see Thor today?"
Luo Ji knew that Heve liked Thor since she was young. She didn't understand why she liked that kind of fool. So she sympathized with Heve.
"No, Thor went to catch a Flying Goat today!" The Flying Goat that Heve mentioned didn't just refer to a goat that could fly.
It was a real divine beast, a creature that was even more difficult to deal with than a dragon. In the historical records of Asgard, there were only a few gods who could catch a Flying Goat as a mount.
Catching a Flying Goat was a symbol of power. But it was also very, very dangerous.
"Ha!" Luo Ji laughed with some disdain. "Is my brother showing off his power again?"
Heve knew that Loki and Thor were two different kinds of people. Loki was quieter, while Thor was more active. And he liked to show off his power.
"It's not a simple show of power, Loki. Thor is preparing for war, "Heve said simply.
"And you might also have to participate in this war!"
"Hmm?" Luo Ji made a noncommittal sound. But no one would have thought that this war would deeply affect some of Luo Ji's thoughts.
