Chapter 288: The Asgardian Family
Hector didn''t know what Peter''s reaction was. All he knew was that he made the kid happy and gave him a better life than the original. Even Yondu had received a nice T-shirt with Hector and his photo, with the words "Goodest Son of All" on it. For Yondu, that was enough to make him cry since Hector was like a father to him.
For the day, Hector returned to Earth, as Loki and Thor were there. With their father, they were spending some quality time together, which they rarely got.
...
"This is amazing! I never knew Midgard had developed such interesting things." Odin boomed as the father and sons rode on the rollercoaster. "And these hot dogs that are not made of dogs are so good."
Thor wasughing like crazy while also eating a hotdog. "Haha... this is great... but not as good as my hammer flight."
Loki was, as always, sitting in the second car and frowning. "I''d rather spend this time with Jean than waste it with you two."
Woosh!
"You are turning into her ve at this rate, kid." Hector appeared out of nowhere in the empty seat beside Loki. He also had a whole smoked chicken leg in hand and ate it messy. "Learn to enjoy things every now and then... or you might just end up boring Jean... she''s immortal, just so you know."
"My friend!" Odin stood up excitedly.
BAM!
And subsequently got smacked on his head by the ceiling of the tunnel. But, only the tunnel got damaged with a now head-shaped hole in the ceiling.
"Bwhaha..." Hectorughed. "Stay seated, Odin. And why didn''t you bring H? She''s your daughter too, Odin. Let me fix it."
Snap!
With a snap of his finger, H appeared between Hector and Loki. There was enough space since both Loki and Hbined were as wide as Hector alone.
She looked around in confusion and noticed Odin''s head. "What is the meaning of thi- Ah!"
But the moment she noticed she was seated beside Hector, so close that their sides were touching, she stoppedining and rxed. "I have nothing toin about, it seems."
Hector knew she had eyes on him in ways that would end with Diana trying to kill him if he reciprocated. But, to him, H was just a traumatised little princess, not a woman.
"How are you, H? I thought you should join in on the fun here." Hector said.
Shefortably shifted in her seat and nodded. "I am, thank you for caring... you certainly care more than my father."
Odin stole a nce and looked away. "H, I thought you were busy, and you never agreed to go anywhere with me."
Hector saw the tension increasing, so he dropped the bomb. "I am dying!"
_(__)( _ )_
H, Odin, Loki, and Thor looked at him in shock and worry. Odin again stood up and, this time, used magic to stop the rollercoaster in the middle, at the top of a fall. "What do you mean, my friend? You are a supreme god! How can you die?"
Hector sighed and folded his arms, making his face look serious. "I mean, this physical body is dying. I must transcend to my higher realm, or else this Universe shall copse."
"How much time do you have?" Odin asked.
"Maybe a year."
Thor stood up, too. "Old man, what is yourst wish? I shall honour anything you say... as long as it''s not about leaving Jane."
"Nothing really... I just hope for peace and freedom tost forever across all of the universes. Alls should be free, justice should be quick, and evil should be quashed. And that''s not possible if you all fight and make a mess every time. H, even Lady Death, has married and lives happily with her partner, so why do you insist on violence?
"I rmend you go and meet Lady Death and get your powers back without the bloodlust. I wish for you to not just be the Goddess of War, but also justice." He revealed his wishes.
"And Odin, you need to learn how to be a better father. Frigga is pregnant with another child as of now... I hope you don''t turn that into some mess as well. You know, just be normal...e to Earth and live here with your kids... learn some humility from mortals who only live less than eighty years on average." He suggested. And yes, Frigga was pregnant after thest time Hector gave Odin the idea that he should have some fun with her.
Neither Hector nor Odin had any regrets, however. More the merrier, after all. Asgard was already in a festive mood with the news.
"And Loki... son, you have found the perfect life partner. Jean is everything any man can dream of in a lifetime. But, try not to be too obsessed and do something else... something productive. You have a good head above your shoulders. Use it for the good of the Universe."
He then turned to Thor. "As for you, Thor, maybe tone down a bit on jokes... you don''t have to add a joke in every single situation, fight or death."
Odin sighed in sadness. "It was great knowing you, my friend. But even if we''re not mortals, it seems we are heavily tied by thews that are too ahead of us."
Hector sped hands with the Odin, and they nodded together. No hugs. However, they were too old for those.
"What about Moony? Can I care for him?" Thor asked suddenly.
Hectorughed as if he had heard a joke. "He''s my son, and he goes where I go. He''s a higher being anyway."
"Fenris too?" H eximed all of a sudden.
"Of course, both of them are lovers, after all. Do you want to separate the two lovers?"
She shook her head silently and sat back in her seat, rxing. Probably was thinking that the one man she liked somewhat was now dying... or transcending. She had the worst luck, she thought.
Beep! Beep!
Hector looked at the watch and rushed. "All right, time for me to go and meet Yao. Here, take these bags. They have gifts for you."
Woosh!
When Hector vanished, they all opened their packages. First was H, who found a little ring with a red stone on it. There was also a note in it. "This ring will tell you when you''re going overboard with your powers... it will curse at you in my voice."
She chuckled and put the ring on happily. Then Loki opened his box and found a bracelet. The note said. "It will pinch you whenever youe up with an evil scheme. This will help you keep yourself checked."
Then finally, Thor opened his box, and there was also a bracelet. The note exined. "This is the bullshit detector. If you start acting too dumb, it will make a sound."
Thor was happy with it. "Ah, so a tool to increase my wisdom?"
Loki scoffed. "No, it''s to save you from embarrassment."
Odin ignored his kids and opened his box. He, too, found a bracelet and then read the note. "For you it''s also a dumbness detector, but this one tells you whenever you''re being a dumb parent."
Hughed heartily at that. "I suppose you received the best gift, father."
Then she stood up and quickly summoned the Bifrost, vanishing. But, for some reason, Odin was standing there in shock, his one eye widened as if he saw the ghost of Hector.
He looked at his sons excitedly. "M-My sons... did she just call me father?"
...
Kamar Taj
"Master Wong, why is the library''s whole left section full of books about Mister President? Where are the other sorcery books?" Doctor Strange entered the Kamar Taj Library. Now he was the Sorcerer Supreme, however.
Wong looked around in annoyance. "Master MoonyHe keeps bringing these books to show how great his dad is... and you know the Ancient One, she will never see Master Moony saddened... so I made some space."
Doctor Strange just facepalmed and left. "In that case... even my hands are tied."
Woosh!
"Ah! Didn''t I write this book when my ne crashed before the war?" Hector appeared behind a book counter, reading.
Doctor Strange seemed shocked, however. "How did you appear here? I specifically ced spells to ensure I know if someone like you entered here."
"Bwahaha... kid, you''re about a billion years too early to detect me. Now, get me a nice Kamar Taj-styled tea."
