Chapter 242 - 242

[POV Reo]

After Momo took En Sabah Nur's body back to Elysium, both me and Natasha headed back to the surface. After giving it some thought I have already decided that I was going to return to Elysium using normal methods. For now, I decided to leave En Sabah Nur's tomb completely intact or whatever was left of it… from the movies, I knew that to change his bodies he had to use his technologically advanced pyramid. ​​

It is damaged because of the collapse and the passage of time but if needed I could fix it using En Sabah Nur's memories. I really wanted to get my hands on his memories but there was a minor problem with that… as long as Momo was running her tests he needed to be kept intact and I don't know what kind of damage I was going to cause if I try to read all of his memories at once. His brain might melt like it happened with the host body of Sublime.

After arriving at the surface I started to prepare some ward lines around the pathway I had made... I don't want anyone accidentally stumbling on this place, that was something I didn't want to happen.

"What are you doing?" Natasha asked me curiously. She was intently looking at the runes I was drawing on the surface of the sand. Yes, I know that the surface of the sand shouldn't be used to write runes but it won't be a problem after the wards are up.

As soon as the wards go up the runes will disappear. "I am putting up some wards… these wards will make anyone non-magical ignore this place and I will also be casting a Fidelius with you as the secret keeper… it's a spell that hides a secret" I gave Natasha a brief explanation. Even though Natasha wasn't a witch she could be made a secret keeper… after all, there is no requirement that the secret keeper must be someone magical, it just says that the secret keeper must be human.

"Secret Keeper?" Natasha asked me with a confused look on her face.

"You will understand in a few seconds…" I said and activated the wards. I was only using a muggle repelling charm and a Fidelius. The muggle repelling charm and the Fidelius are tied together so the muggle repelling charm won't affect Natasha as she was the secret keeper. Natasha looked completely bewildered and confused for a few seconds before understanding finally dawned on her.

As soon as I would leave I would forget about the entrance too. Natasha immediately understood what she needed to do. She brought the map from the car and after some calculations, she marked a location on the map. Natasha showed me the map and I felt that I gained knowledge of the secret.

"Did that work?" Natasha asked not sure of herself. I saw that the mark on the map disappeared as soon as I found out the secret.

"Yes, it did" I said giving her a reassuring smile. Natasha nodded and put her map away now that its job was done. Even if she didn't give me the secret I would have no problem locating the tomb once again. After all, I remembered the surroundings and I could sense the gold pyramid even if the Fidelius was up.

"Ok, let's go back then" I said and both of us entered the car. After a while, we took a small break for our dinner.

Throughout the dinner, we made some small conversations until Natasha asked me a quite common question. "I don't want to be rude or anything but how did you get used to killing?" Natasha asked and when she looked at my face she immediately squeaked out an apology. "I am sorry if you don't want to answer then it's fine" Natasha finished nervously.

Seeing her nervous expression I chuckled lightly and raised my hands in a surrendering manner. I didn't want to give her the idea that I was making fun of her. "Nothing like that… I never felt anything when I killed for the first time… I thought that I would feel bad but that didn't happen. And I wasn't laughing at you, I just thought you were cute when you were nervous" I finished, throughout the first sentence, Natasha kept listening to me intently but as soon as I said that she looked cute… a pink tint marred her cheeks.

I have to say, she expertly hid her blush without any problem. Must be a perk of her training as a spy. "Ah… well, I wanted to thank you for what you have done for me… you have been busy since we arrived on Elysium and I wasn't able to talk with you. Thank you for saving me" Natasha declared in a grateful tone. I didn't need to use Legilimency to find out that she was completely honest.

"But, I didn't do much. It was Nemuri who saved and healed you" I said to Natasha.

"Yes, I know but Nemuri would have long sent me away if you would have asked her or if you didn't like my presence. I also know that it's because of you the meta-humans don't act against me" Natasha spoke in a serious tone, it was like she was stating a fact.

"You are most welcome" I said and we continued to make our small conversations. After dinner was finally over, we decided to head back to Cairo. It was a long drive… Natasha fell asleep in her seat on our way back. When we arrived back it was almost dawn. After parking the car and telling the staff to return it… I carried Natasha back to her room. She was in a deep sleep that is why I didn't bother to wake her.

I placed Natasha in her room and found myself alone in my bed… it was impossible for me to fall asleep when the girls are not with me so I decided to stay up…

[Bifrost, Asgard]

"So, you are saying that you once again noticed the Power of Destruction?" Odin, the King of Asgard, the Allfather asked Heimdall, the gatekeeper of Asgard.

"Yes, your majesty. This time it was quite clear and open but I am still unable to see the user of the Power of Destruction" Heimdall said in a respectful manner.

"That's quite natural, beings like these are on a much higher standing than any of us and their higher powers allow them to become unnoticeable until they want themselves to be" Odin spoke showing off his wisdom. Everyone around him nodded their heads in understanding.

"Did my foolish son try to visit Midgard?" Odin asked in a worried tone. Odin had explained to Thor about Cosmic Entities but Odin knew very well that something like that wouldn't deter Thor. He had explained how strong and powerful these beings were… he had told his son that they should wait for the right moment to pay a visit but Thor didn't understand any of those statements.

"Yes, your majesty. The Young Prince has already tried three times" Heimdall said in a solemn tone to which Odin nodded his head. Odin decided that this can't go on… it would be much better if he took Thor along with him to meet the two Cosmic Entities who have found their way into Midgard. Attending that meeting might teach his son Thor some much-needed humility.

"It looks like I would have to pay them a visit much sooner than I thought" Odin said in a contemplative voice. No one said anything in return. "By the way where is my son now?" Odin asked looking towards one of his attendants.

"Your Majesty, the Young Prince along with Lady Sif and the Warrior Three have left for a hunt" the attendee said in a respectful tone while bowing his head in front of Odin. Odin rubbed the bridge of his nose while shaking his head in disappointment. Why was his son like this? Seeing that nothing was left to do here… he decided to head to the Palace.

After Odin arrived in the Palace, he went straight to his private chambers. He was so worried about his own thoughts he didn't notice that his wife Frigga had noticed her husband's worried look and decided to follow him.

Odin finally arrived in his private chambers but before he was able to close the doors Frigga showed up. "May I come in?" Frigga asked Odin who just nodded his head in approval.

"What has gotten you so worried, my husband?" Frigga asked walking towards the other end of the room.

"Something very dangerous has happened recently… two Cosmic Entities have found their way into Midgard" Odin said in a solemn tone. Frigga gasped in fright…

"How can this be? Cosmic Entities have never shown any interest in mortals" Frigga said with worry and fear clear in her voice.

"I don't know. What's even more surprising is that one of those beings are the Phoenix Force and the other one possesses the Power of Destruction" Odin said and Frigga gasped once more.

"That's impossible… something like this has never happened. Two opposing forces like them residing in the same world is very dangerous" Frigga said with a deep frown on her face.

"That is why I have decided to pay a visit… I know that I might not be able to change the outcome but I need to meet them. I have planned to do that after I watched them closer… but I no longer have that luxury. Thor is trying to visit Midgard" Odin said and Frigga gasped for the third time… her hands flew to her mouth in worry. Odin didn't need to explain anymore, Frigga knew her son very well… and she knew what her son would do. If a fight between her son and these beings breaks out then her son will definitely die…

"Then we need to pay them a visit before Thor does" Frigga said with complete determination in her voice…
