Loki: I Have a Happy Family

"Is this all you're going to do?"

Loki looked at them in surprise.

All the Loki seem to have had their edges worn down by life, and have lost all hope.

They had no physical wounds, but their spirits, like his when he was on Sakaar, were pierced and bound by chains.

"Resistance is futile," said the older Loki. "Weren't you yourself a product of the Time Administration Bureau?"

"They have locked onto the sacred timeline, written down the fates of all of us, and if we deviate even slightly, they will find us and send us to this world."

"In the beginning, the world I lived in was going according to their script. Then one day, Thanos launched an attack on Asgard. At that time, I chose to fake my death and escape Thor and Asgard," he said.

"Several thousand years."

I lived in seclusion and never saw them again.

"So you changed your destiny?" Loki said.

He had seen the Time Administration Bureau's Sacred Timeline, where Loki was destined to die at Thanos's hands.

Old Loki has changed his fate.

But the other party shook their head and said, "That's not how it works. The Time Administration Bureau detects anomalies based on branches. My feigned death has been living in a remote world in the universe, without affecting anything, and is no different from a real death."

"But one day, after I had lived alone for thousands of years, feeling lonely and somewhat longing for Thor, and wanting to see him, those people appeared before me and brought me here."

He chuckled and leaned back in his chair, his expression as if he were talking about someone completely unrelated to him.

"So you understand now, Loki can only play one role: the god of exile."

"That's fate."

"This is not fate!" Loki almost shouted, his hysterical outburst surprising the other Loki.

Even he didn't know why he was so emotional. Perhaps it was because he heard that even in his final moments, Old Loki was not allowed to see Thor one last time, or perhaps it was because these Loki in front of him looked like stray dogs with broken bones, bowing to so-called "fate" without any dignity.

But that wasn't fate at all.

That's not fate!

"If fate doesn't allow us to exist, then we wouldn't exist, understand?"

He stood up, looked down at the Loki present, and exclaimed excitedly, "You are not losers at all!" He pointed forcefully at Old Loki, "You! You've outlived any Loki!" Then he pointed at Kid Loki, "You! You killed Thor! You accomplished a feat that no other Loki could!"

"You, you Loki!"

"Hey!"

Black Loki was a little annoyed, but Loki ignored him and said something even more suggestive, "You've conquered United States's perfect ass!"

Alligator Loki curled up in the basin, was smirking, but Loki's next move was to point at him.

"And you... I'm sorry, what have you done?"

"He accidentally ate the neighbor's chicken," Black Loki said.

Um?

Is that correct?

How did this thing get in here?

But now is not the time to undermine him. Loki casually remarked, "You might be the only Loki who's ever eaten chicken, not to mention you're a crocodile."

"Look, we are all Loki, yet so different. Fate did not forbid our existence; it is those in the Time Administration Bureau who think they can control destiny who are toying with us!"

"Are you just going to willingly let them manipulate you like this?"

"We are the God of Mischief!"

"We should be the ones making fun of them, we should be the ones writing the script!"

"What do you want? We can't even leave here."

"That monster, Alioth, kill it and we can leave."

"Hahaha!"

All the Loki burst into laughter, as if Loki had told some hilarious joke.

"Kill it? With our strength?"

"Do you even know how terrifying Alioth is? We're nothing but trash who can only pull off some low-level tricks."

"You're all useless, but I'm not."

Loki gradually calmed down, sat back in his chair, and crossed his legs.

He wasn't just loafing around under Ben; he was one of the people most familiar with the Energy of the Universe, and he was the one who added the Alpha Rune to all the Plumber Badge.

Moreover, Loki was born with congenital deficiencies. Although his physical abilities were stronger than most heroes on Earth, compared to the Asgardian, he could only be considered average to below average.

The Energy of the Universe made up for his congenital deficiencies. Loki may look thin now, but he is actually equivalent to one of the most powerful warriors in Asgard.

But that's far from all.

Before he and Thor set out, Ben had considered the difficulty of the mission and specifically instructed him to bring the Casket of Ancient Winters.

Loki certainly wouldn't reveal his trump card, especially since even with the Casket of Ancient Winters, he might not be able to defeat Alioth.

He needs more powerful weapons.

His gaze fell on Alligator Loki, and he wondered, if Alligator Loki existed in this world, would there also be an animal version of Thor?

"You're not a loser?" Kid Loki interrupted his thoughts.

"Then tell me what you're capable of!"

Loki launched a taunt that made everyone unhappy.

It wouldn't be a big deal if everyone failed; we could still support and help each other. But you have to say you succeeded—that won't do!

Everyone else is suffering, so why are you driving a Land Rover?

Besides, Kid Loki believed that killing Thor was the greatest feat of all Loki's achievements.

He didn't believe Loki was more successful than him.

But Loki's single sentence made them all worship him.

"I lifted Mjolnir and became King of Asgard, the rightful king! Odin himself crowned me!"

?

All the Loki simultaneously typed a question mark. Is this still Asgard? I can't understand it.

Loki continued, "In my world, my mother Frigga didn't die, my father Odin is still alive, Thor and I have reconciled, and we're so close we could share the same pants."

"I have a happy family, with two older sisters and one older brother besides Thor."

Asgard is intact, and all its people are alive.

"On the day of my coronation, Odin summoned everyone in the Nine Realms to congratulate me, but I tricked them all and didn't go at all," Loki said smugly.

All of Loki were immediately filled with awe.

There's no bigger prank than this.

Not to mention, he also gained Odin's approval and a happy family.

They were practically bursting with jealousy, Kid Loki retorted defiantly, "So what? We were still cut, weren't we?"
