_____________________________________

POV. Thor.

Well... This one I didn't expect.

Meeting Ganga and discovering that the woman I was seeing in front of me was part of a river was one of the few moments I was surprised.

It also didn't help that I didn't understand much of what she was talking about.

"SoAre you asking me to bathe 'in you' so I can be cleansed?" I asked.

Just to make sure...

After all, this was a strange request for me.

"Kind of! Just take off your clothes and dive into me and then I will cleanse you!" said Ganga.

Well... my mind might be a little... degenerate.

But then again... Will she be able to help me with the mark?

I know that Puti Zushi informed me to look for Shiva, but I didn't know exactly where the god of destruction lived...

And honestly, the more time passed, the more I was afraid of this mark. Because I don't know how to 'release' this seal and, mainly, I don't know what will happen if I release it.

"... Alright, where... are you?" I asked.

It's kind of tricky to refer to someone who's technically not here... not completely in the case.

Ganga then looked to the west.

"I'm a little far away in that direction... I'm the first river you'll find, so let's go! As we walk, I can introduce you to some stories from my land; like, did you know that there is a goddess of the dawn who has the most beautiful breasts that make the sky shine?" asked Ganga excitedly as she started walking to the west.

I, like Igris, started following the goddess.

"... Yeah... Must be incredible Tell me, do you happen to know Shiva?" I asked, wanting to change the subject.

I don't think, if I know of the existence of a goddess who bares her breasts to light up the sky, is something important.

"Oh?... Why don't you ask him yourself?" asked a voice, with a childish tone.

POV. Third-person.

Thor broke into a cold sweat, as he didn't notice the being's presence until the voice appeared, but he maintained his composure not to despair, but...

Igris, however, soon unsheathed his sword and made a decapitation movement aiming at the source of the voice, which seemed to be a hand's breadth away.

*CLANG*

Although Igris' sword hit the neck... The sword failed to tear the skin...

The sword hit a child, which confused Igris for a few seconds. But not Thor, because the Norse god knew that in front of him was a powerful being.

Ganga, at that moment, had approached the apparent 'child', with palms together and then knelt bowing to the child... The goddess, who was the personification of a river, then lightly touched the child's feet, still with her head bowed.

The child looked at Ganga and smiled softly.

"Ganga... I know your goal is to wash the world of negativity so that it can thrive, but in this situation, I'm afraid I have to interfere for your safety" said the child, with black and blue hair.

Igris soon get away from the boy; because he soon notices that the boy was not just any child to behave that carelessly, even with a sword at his neck.

The child soon looked at Thor, who was standing nearby.

"... Shall we talk in a quieter place?" asked the child with a smile.

It was then that the child disappeared and reappeared alongside Thor.

The child then placed his hand on Thor and created a portal that looked like a puddle of water just below him, and so the Norse god and the child 'sunk' into the ground.

Igris, seeing that Thor was being 'kidnapped' soon bolted towards the puddle, only for him to arrive too late.

Igris then looked at Ganga and raised his sword.

"... Where?!" shouted Igris, asking about Thor's whereabouts.

Ganga, however, remained unperturbed and responded with a big smile.

"Oh? Don't worry... The great 'auspicious' said he just wanted to talk!" said Ganga innocently.

Although Igris wanted to question more about what she meant, he didn't know that Ganga could help him at the moment.

Furthermore, a feeling of helplessness haunted Igris' subconscious After all, he had just met someone who was on a completely different level, and that made Igris more determined than ever.

"... I need more power," said Igris.

- Location: one of the particular dimensions of Vishnu / Kra Sgara (Ocean of Milk) / Thirupaarkadal (Sacred Sea of Milk).

POV. Third-person.

In a dimension where a vast ocean of calm blue waters was the only thing existing, a small boat, which looked more like a resting bed, which was shaped like a large serpent, floated peacefully.

Near the boat, a portal formed in the water, and then Thor along with the child appeared.

The child then released Thor and then smiled at the Norse god.

"Well... Now that we're here, let's start our little dialogue, shall we?" I ask the child.

Thor was silent for just a few seconds before he acted...

The Norse god jumped to get away from the child, although the 'dimension' was made up of water, it looked like it was possible to walk on the surface as if it were something solid, although waves could still be made.

The child soon raised an eyebrow at Thor's actions.

"Oh?~ Am I that scary?" asked the child, with an amused tone, while still smiling.

Thor, however, didn't smile at all...

He knew who it was due to the description given by Puti Zushi...

Shiva.

In fact, for the first time, the Norse god was nervous, as using senjutsu, Thor caught a brief glimpse of Shiva's power...

What Thor saw was something terrifying.

Thor has already witnessed some of Ra's power.

But at this moment... If I were to compare Ra against Shiva...

It was like comparing a lake against a vast ocean.

The difference was absurd between rankings 4 and 2 in the top 10.

In fact, each position had its own gap between the other positions in the top 10.

"...Considering that 'technically' I've just been kidnapped, I think my reaction to you is justified," said Thor, as he removed Mjolnir from his belt and held it in his right hand.

Shiva looked at the action with an amused look, but then made gestures with his hands as if to dismiss the action.

"I'm not interested in fighting right now... In fact, I want to try to help" said Shiva.

Now it was Thor's turn to raise his eyebrow, but you could see the confusion in his eyes.

"...How do you" said Thor, before quickly breaking off.

"' know I need help?' Well, I know Ra, and he told me some things about you at the last meeting between the leaders, so he asked me to help you; 'A tree will not deny shade even to the woodcutter', an interesting saying, right? I'm sure you understand the meaning," said Shiva, with a smile.

Thor paused for a moment and then put the Mjolnir away again.

Shiva nodded in satisfaction and then gestured towards the 'serpent boat'.

"...Are you ready to talk?" asked Shiva.

Thor was silent and then nodded.

"...Sorry," said Freyja.

It was then that someone knocked on the door of the house, which confused the women inside the house, as Hel had left with one of the spare 'keys'.

Which meant it was probably a stranger knocking on the door.

Sif was the first to get up from the table to answer the door.

"I'll take care of it," Sif said, as she headed for the door.

As soon as Sif opened the door, she raised an eyebrow in curiosity at the guest.

"...Prince Frey? Wha" Sif said, before being interrupted.

Frey soon spoke quickly.

"Hello, Sif!... Is Fenrir in?" asked Frey, looking into the house with a worried face.

Sif stopped talking but answered shortly afterward.

"No, he -" said Sif, before being interrupted again by Frey.

"Great!" said Frey, with a smile.

Prince Vanir soon entered the house in search of someone.

"Freyja! My beloved sister! I need you!" said Frey.

As soon as Frey noticed Freyja at the table, he soon ran towards his sister and grabbed her by the shoulders.

"I need your help!" said Frey, with a worried look.

Freyja was scared, as much as she disliked some of Frey's shameless actions, she still worried about her brother.

"Frey, what happened to you being like this? Is anyone hurt or has someone threatened you?" asked Freyja, worried.

Frey soon looked at Freyja as if she had said something strange.

"What? No! It's all fine," Frey said simply.

Sif had returned and looked at Frey in confusion, exchanging a look with Nanna, who shrugged her shoulders at Prince Vanir's demeanor.

Freyja was soon confused by the answer.

"So Why the cry for help?" asked Freyja.

It was then that Frey soon released Freyja, and then the Asgardian women noticed something different...

Frey was blushing.

"...I'm in love," Frey said, looking away, and looking out the window with a dreamy glow.

The room was silent at Prince Vanir's assertion.

"You what, now?" asked Freyja, her tone empty, as if she didn't believe such a statement.

Frey then blushed even more.

"I asked permission from Odin and Balr to sit on the Hliskjlf, so I could see what was happening here - somewhere in particular, but I couldn't see through the wall..." said Frey, looking away at the last statement.

In fact, Frey tried to be smart, asking permission to sit on the Hliskjlf so he could see what was going on inside Thor's house... without risking his life again.

The flaw in the plan was that Thor had already thought that Odin would do such a thing, particularly after the events at tgard castle, so he forged runes to block Odin's vision centuries ago, after studying the corrupted ice from the winter castle.

Unfortunately for Frey, he was unaware that Thor had done this and now owes a favor in vain for using Odin's 'all-seeing throne'.

The Asgardian women present at Thor's house frowned as they thought of Frey's words.

"Did you try to spy on us?" asked Freyja, frowning.

Frey soon denied it.

"No!... Initially yes, BUT!" screamed Frey at the last word as he saw Nanna summoning a rune, Sif drawing her sword and Freyja summoning her spear.

Frey soon continued quickly.

"Wait! Wait! When I saw that it didn't work, I soon gave up! I then got bored and started watching the other realms!" said Frey.

The women looked at each other and seemed to consider whether to attack or not... But it seems that Freyja gave up first, as she soon sighed in defeat.

"I've known you for over a millennium I should have known you would try something like that, it's my fault too. Now, although I really want to stab you in the eyes for daring to spy on us... You said something about 'falling in love' right? Who is the unlucky one?" said Freyja.

Although Freyja put away the spear right after the question, Sif didn't sheath her sword and Nanna didn't cancel the rune... It looked like the two were still considering whether it was worth attacking Frey for insolence.

Frey, however, smiled at Freyja, though ignoring his sister's last question.

"You must see her, sister! She's the most beautiful I've ever seen!... Not beautiful as you But I swear in Buri's name that I would do anything to be with her!" said Frey, in a determined tone.

Freyja looked at Frey apathetically.

" Good, but why exactly I'm needed?" asked Freyja.

"Well... There might be a little problem," Frey said, with a nervous smile.

Freyja looked at Frey.

"Problem?... What kind of problem?" asked Freyja.

Frey backed away a bit and put the hands behind his back and then started walking around the kitchen, looking around and refusing to meet Freyja's eyes, who was staring suspiciously.

"Well Remember Beli? The Jotun I accidentally killed while taming Gullinbursti?" asked Frey innocently.

Freyja raised a confused eyebrow.

"Yes... But what does that have to do with it?" asked Freyja.

Frey seemed to consider the next words.

"...well...he has a sister...a very pretty sister by the way," said Frey.

At that moment nothing was said in the house... Until Sif, who was looking in shock, dropped her sword on the floor.

Nanna, with her mouth open, canceled the rune and looked at Frey for any sign of joking.

But Freyja was the worst...

She soon got up and ran towards Frey and grabbed him by the shoulders.

"Let me get this straight Did you 'fall in love' with the sister of the Jotun you killed? And now you want my help to make her fall in love with you?" asked Freyja, looking Frey in the eye.

Frey had the decency to look embarrassed.

"...Yes," said Frey, looking away.

As soon as Frey answered, a vein popped on Freyja's forehead, which was starting to turn red with rage.

Well, that's it, folks!

The updates will be 1 chapter per week!

Because I need to study hard!

I decided, after several considerations, to define the next fanfic that I will post!

Next fanfic (written already started):

- Son of Agni!

A transmigration SI on Prince Zuko shortly after being banished and heading towards the western air temple.

The fanfic will consist of the MC completing the mission given by a supernatural being so that he can return 'home'.

It will be a fanfic that will reflect what a single father is capable of doing to return home to raise his 6-year-old daughter and prevent her from ending up alone against the world.

I plan to put this story (Reborn as Thor) on hiatus once this journey of Thor is over, as it will be the end of Volume 1.

Volume 2 will be developed calmly, as I will be writing about the great war (DxD) in this volume.

As soon as the Thor fanfic goes on hiatus, I will post the Zuko fanfic.

Title of the next chapter:

Chapter 48 Haki bastard version!
