Chapter 941: Chapter 68: Foot Fetish Benefits, Yummy! _2
Are you asking for trouble with this question?
"There’s a third challenge! Only by winning all the challenges, can you take Thor with you!"
Lafei waved his hand to dismiss the incarnation of [Aging], gritting his teeth in anger.
Luo En nodded and walked to the table filled with food in the corner.
Meanwhile, an orange cat, wholeheartedly and voraciously eating at the table, sensed the approach of a stranger, instinctively looked up, and issued a protective growl from its throat.
However, as a familiar scent wafted into its nostrils, the orange cat shivered uncontrollably and hastily abandoned the half-eaten feast, trying to jump off the table and flee.
But ultimately, it couldn’t escape the descending magic claws, Fate’s scruff being firmly grasped, its four paws flailing helplessly in mid-air.
Not until that fair and slender hand held it in the crook of an arm did the orange cat stop struggling and lay obediently in Luo En’s arms, glaring with wide, watery eyes, pretending to be harmless.
Seeing this harmonious scene between man and cat, Lafei almost sputtered out a mouthful of old blood, filled with grief and anger.
This ungrateful waste!
Where is your World Authority? Where is your Death Engulfment? Where is your deadly Poison?
I fed you and watered you, and you dare to betray me at a critical moment!
Witnessing Luo En easily complete the final trial, Brynhild, who had been anxiously clutching her heart, quietly loosened her sweaty fists, stepping forward and coldly huffed:
"We won, release him!"
With great reluctance in his heart, Lafei, as the new king of the Frost Giants, still couldn’t bring himself to break the public covenant, showing a grim face and slightly lifting his hand, the icy ground beneath instantly cracked.
A disheveled and pallid blond strongman was brought up, thrown at the feet of Luo En and Brynhild.
"Who dares to throw down your Grandpa Thor? Come out! Let’s have a one-on-one!"
Even in his weakened state, the legendary Thunder God didn’t lose his arrogant nature; as soon as he landed, he yelled with a hoarse voice.
"Shut up!"
Luo En kicked him annoyedly, making his great-nephew behave and not cause any more trouble.
Just as Thor was about to retort, he turned around and saw Brynhild beside Luo En, his face showing surprise:
"Brynhild? What are you doing here?"
Brynhild, as Odin’s daughter and thus his sister by kin, had many interactions with him.
Moreover, his wife—Sif, the goddess of earth and harvest, had also served in the Valkyrie Corps. Although marriage had stripped Sif of her Valkyrie status, she had fought alongside Brynhild and formed a deep friendship.
Because of this connection, Sif entrusted their daughter, Slude, who joined the Valkyrie Corps, to Brynhild for care and guidance.
"Father God ordered us to come to Jotunheim to rescue you, Lord Thor."
Brynhild raised her hand to her chest, candidly stating their purpose.
At these words, Thor’s face had a hard time maintaining composure, he awkwardly defended:
"That’s because these Frost Giants cheated, a one-on-one, I might not necessarily lose! Besides, these guys compete but still shamelessly... poisoned me..."
As his voice went out of tune, Thor’s gaze shifted upward to the orange cat in Luo En’s arms, and he was suddenly startled: 𝓃𝓸𝓋𝓅𝓊𝒷.𝓬𝓸𝓂
"Oh my, what is this monster doing here?!"
Monster?
Brynhild looked at the orange cat in Luo En’s arms, full of confusion.
"Isn’t that just a cat?"
"Don’t be fooled by this thing; it’s probably the most evil, dangerous creature in all Nine Realms! If it hadn’t caught me off guard, bitten me, and poisoned me, these rotten fish and shrimps of Etheregar City couldn’t have stopped me!" Thor answered through gritted teeth.
But to see an enemy is profoundly irritating.
Recalling the humiliation suffered over recent days, Thor immediately dragged his weakened body, squeezing out a bit of divine power, trying to summon the Thunder God’s Hammer, intending to fight a life-and-death battle with the evil orange cat then and there.
Simultaneously, the orange cat also felt the intense hatred and killing intent from Thor, its hair bristling, its back arching, pupils contracting, and continuously issuing threatening low growls, posing for an attack.
Seeing the reaction of both man and cat, Luo En had a rough guess about the circumstances.
If it were merely three challenges, Thor might not have passed, but he wouldn’t have been captured by the Frost Giant Clan.
Lafei likely understood Thor’s strength too, so when Thor attempted to lift Yemengarde in the third trial, Lafei signaled Yemengarde to strike.
Thus, Yemengarde, under the guise of the innocent-looking orange cat, bit the Thunder God’s arm unawares, injecting intensely toxic venom into him, throwing Thor to the ground.
In the original Norse mythology, the two also became enemies because of this contest, thereby becoming eternal adversaries.
When Ragnarök arrived, Yemengarde resonated with the calamitous forces of the earth. Awakening from its slumber, it stirred under the sea, causing tremendous waves. Its mouth emitted deadly venom and gases, contaminating the entire ocean and filling the cosmos.
As the battle of doomsday unfolded, Yemengarde attacked the Immortal Palace, engaging in a death battle with its arch-enemy, Thor.
Ultimately, Thor’s Divine Hammer shattered Yemengarde’s skull, and Yemengarde’s venom caused Thor to fall dead after staggering back seven steps, both perishing together.
