The transparent silhouette that appeared out of nowhere stood in front of Loki, her voice was feminine as she spoke, but her voice was only in my head, no sound came out of that silhouette.
"It's been a long time, why are you showing up only now?" (Loki)
"(Why did an idiot only come here now.)"
"I can feel it, you lost your Divinity, you lost even your Authority, you are not it." (Loki)
"(I am her, but at the same time I am not her.)"
"I see, you chose the same as me." (Loki)
"(For me it wasn't a choice, it was the only way left, otherwise it would just disappear into nothing.)"
"(My Divinity was broken on the way here and my Authority was crushed by this world that rejected this piece of our world.)"
"Because it was a stupid idea, I said abandoning the world, taking people's souls somewhere else to start from scratch, would be a less risky gamble than that." (Loki)
"(I couldn't kill those who asked for salvation...)"
Suddenly Loki punches the silhouette in the head which shatters like glass falling to the floor, then the whole body cracks and shatters.
"Idiot, if you were really here I would throw a lot more than 1 single punch." (Loki)
"(What happened to you? It used to be more fun.)"
A new silhouette emerges from the World Tree, it emerges from the exact point that Loki was looking at when he appeared here, it was a silhouette equal to the previous one.
"(I can't make many of these bodies, so stop breaking them.)"
This is the first time I've seen Loki angry, his expression always smiling as if everything around him was a joke, this time he was absent for the first time, I could see sadness in his eyes even though his expression was angry.
"She must have been important to him." (I)
"She was very happy to see him, this is the first time she has spoken to anyone other than me." (Elly)
The Spirit of the World Tree in the form of a child speaks to me standing next to me, she had a smile on her face.
"She doesn't talk to anyone else?" (I)
"She had her Soul severely damaged, if she wasn't a Goddess she would have died, in the ultimate sense with her Soul disappearing." (Elly)
"I kept your Soul alive in a way, inside me, that appearance is something created with what little energy you have, your Soul is still inside." (Elly)
"(So your name is Loki now?)"
"Yes, what should I call you, why am I thinking of calling you stupid." (Loki)
"(I don't have a name, at least I don't have one anymore, the old name represented someone I'm not anymore.)"
"..." (Loki)
Sigh
Loki spends a few seconds looking at the silhouette, I don't know what exactly he's looking at, his body is transparent and there is no expression or at least a face in his head to look at.
After that Loki looks at me, then the Elf Queen for a few seconds before stopping at the girl who is now beside him, the World Tree Spirit.
"Why not ask directly?" (Loki)
"Because the initial decision should be hers, but she doesn't respond once." (Elly)
"You could never convince her of anything, she's too selfish to listen to anyone else." (Loki)
"Her stubbornness knows no bounds." (Loki)
"But she'll listen to you if you want." (Elly)
"(...)"
"Even if I accepted it, your Soul is incomplete, the Soul of a God, even someone who is no longer a God, needs Authority since that defines us, she doesn't have that anymore, just traces of what she once had." (Loki)
"That may be true, but there are things that might work." (Elly)
"..." (Loki)
"..." (Elly)
"..." (Lorraine)
"..." (Ellyana)
"(Why are you all looking at him? What are you talking to Loki about?)"
"Yes, why are you looking at me?" (I)
I feel like I'm being asked something that I shouldn't refuse, looking to the side I have a vague idea what this is about, but I don't think I can do something like that.
"I haven't said my message yet, but I don't think I need to since you two are together right now." (Lorraine)
"What message? If it's about this crap here... then I'll throw it away..." (Loki)
Loki pulls a stone shield from his own space that has the image of an island surrounded by stars, you can see a large tree on this island and jewels of various colors that I can associate with the colors of the various elements.
"So you found…" (Elly)
"I didn't even have to say where I was." (Lorraine)
"(I left this for you to pay off that bet...)"
"Let's get one thing straight, you didn't leave me anything, I broke into your ridiculous temple and stole this thing, so don't make up stories about paying me back with something I took from you or you'll get another punch." (Loki)
"You know what I'm going to ask and you're going to take it, you never broke your word to me and no matter what happened I don't think you're going to deny it now." (Loki)
"Then just wait." (Loki)
Loki came up to me, she was looking into my eyes and didn't say anything, she knows me well enough to know that I understand what she's going to ask, after listening to all this and seeing everyone's reaction, only an idiot would not understand.
She doesn't open her mouth since I know what she wants to ask, she also knows that nothing I say will add anything to what I've seen and heard here, but still, she's standing in front of me looking into my eyes.
I have no reason to help, in fact, I have no reason to do anything, but for some reason, this seems interesting, Loki isn't as associated with me as the others, but he's still been with me for a while now, this old friend of his seems to be someone I'd like to talk to, she had enough willpower to drag this island through space here while suffering serious consequences, that alone is enough points for her and if she stays by our side it will be a great help.
"You know, when you beg someone else for something, many choose to kneel." (I)
"As if that changes anything for you." (Loki)
"That's true, a demonstration that would be useless to convince me." (I)
"Apparently you already accepted." (Loki)
"Why do you say that?" (I)
"You wouldn't make those jokes for another reason." (Loki)
"I haven't actually accepted anything yet, but I'm leaning towards it." (I)
"So it's basically decided, but I wanted to know why?" (Loki)
"One of the reasons is that you want this, but the biggest reason is her willpower, bringing this island here is already something that I can respect the resolution of her will." (I)
"Thanks." (Loki)
"Thank me after it's done, I won't do anything until I solve another problem." (I)
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
