Thoughts of a Political Marriage

"What exactly are you trying to say?"

Beckett felt that the woman in front of him was implying something, but he just couldn't figure out what Frigga was trying to express.

They kept asking this and that, all of which were related to Hela.

She was asking all sorts of random questions, which made Beckett secretly Frigga if Frigga had come to avenge Hela.

Because he couldn't beat himself, he asked his mom to step in?

Beckett thought about it more and more and felt that there was nothing wrong with his line of thinking.

Therefore, the intense fighting spirit that surged onto Frigga's face in an instant made her both amused and exasperated.

As intelligent as she was, she had clearly deduced Beckett's current thoughts from his expression.

What exactly did Thanos teach this child?

Are they trained entirely for combat weaponry?

Frigga was both amused and exasperated, feeling that if she didn't take the initiative to clarify things, the person in front of her might never have thought of that aspect in their entire life.

A typical blockhead.

This is the complete opposite of the incredibly romantic Odin.

"Beckett, I'm asking you, do you like Hela?"

Beckett's fighting spirit froze instantly. "???"

"I heard about your kiss with Hela from Odin," Frigga said frankly to Beckett.

"Kiss?"

"No, I was just using the Death Divinity within her to heal myself," Beckett categorically denied, refusing to take responsibility.

He didn't have those feelings for Hela.

Women are the worst.

Like Proxima Midnight in the Dark Order, it tormented him quite a bit when he was a child.

"Real?"

"How could I like a woman like her, who's arrogant, stubborn, and can't even take a punch from me?" Beckett met Frigga's gaze without fear, earnestly revealing his understanding of "liking" her, completely forgetting that the woman in front of him was also Hela's mother.

In Beckett's mind, a woman who could be brought to tears by a serious punch from him was utterly useless.

"How do you know Hela can't even withstand one punch from you?" This was the first time Frigga had encountered Beckett, this intelligent being with such a peculiar way of thinking, and her interest was growing stronger.

This is different from what Odin had told her before.

"She's fought me many times, and she's never beaten me." Beckett scoffed at this, still carrying all the loot he'd won in Svartalfheim in his bracelet.

Not to mention the battle on Sakaar, if he hadn't deliberately suppressed his strength, Hela would have been finished long ago.

"Then why would you suppress your strength to fight Hela fairly?"

"Of course it is—" Beckett was momentarily speechless when Frigga asked him a question.

Speaking of which, why did he suppress his strength to fight Hela on Sakaar?

"It's because she's too weak."

"I see." Frigga's face showed a knowing smile, but for some reason, Beckett found that smile very jarring.

"Get out of the way."

Feeling inexplicably flustered, Beckett walked straight past Frigga with a cold expression and boarded his spaceship.

"Woz, go home."

"Yes, Your His Highness Beckett."

While still calculating and building the model, the robot cat Woz activated the spaceship with the symbol [B].

"It seems like I really should have a good talk with Thanos." Frigga muttered to herself as she watched Beckett's ship leave Asgard.

Her husband was an ambitious monarch.

Having essentially subdued the Nine Realms, his confidence has inflated to the point that he has set his sights on the truly supreme beings in the universe, attempting to challenge their dignity.

This was a very dangerous move, but Frigga was powerless to stop it.

All she could do was try her best to help her husband Odin stabilize the situation in the Nine Realms after he left Asgard, since Laufey was still clinging to life in Jotunheim.

If something were to happen to Odin, the counterattack from the Nine Realms would undoubtedly be a serious problem for her and Hela.

Taking this factor into account, finding foreign aid becomes particularly important.

Among the various external support relationships, marriage is undoubtedly the more reliable one.

Frigga herself as an example. Her marriage to Odin was initially just a political alliance between Vanaheim and Asgard. However, as time went by, Frigga undoubtedly fell in love with Odin and stopped questioning how many good sisters Odin had in the past.

Now, Frigga, herself a beneficiary of an arranged marriage, has discovered the unusual relationship between her daughter Hela and Son of Thanos Beckett, and the idea of arranging a marriage between Asgard and the Dark Order suddenly arises in her mind.

Thanos, as the leader of the Dark Order and the actual ruler of the entire Centaurus Galaxy, is among the top in the universe in terms of both his legion's power and his personal strength, and he also dotes on his adopted son Beckett.

According to Odin, Thanos once intervened directly in the war between the Skrull Empire and the Kree Empire under the name of the Dark Order for the sake of his adopted son Beckett, forcing the Skrull Empire to pay what could be described as humiliating compensation.

With such a powerful background, Beckett and Hela can be considered a good match. And once the marriage is successful, even if Odin really has a problem, with Thanos as his in-law, Laufey would have to think twice before trying to retaliate or whether he is strong enough to be torn apart by Thanos.

Planning ahead and preparing for the worst has been Frigga's norm for many years.

After all, Odin's confidence had swelled so much over the years that she couldn't pull him back no matter what she did.

Of course, the wishes of both parties and their parents are very important in order to achieve this marriage arrangement.

Asgard, the royal palace.

In the mural depicting Hela and Odin's conquests, Agamotto sits on the ground, chanting ancient and mysterious songs.

That was a language that even Odin couldn't understand, and it was the source of Agamotto's formidable strength.

The mark belonging to the lineage of the Sorcerer Supreme flickered faintly as the chanting of the song continued, and on the vast floor of the hall, a few scattered clusters of heroic spirits were burning fiercely.

"Hela, merge your Death Divinity with this Eternal Fire, and then strike it into the center of the formation!"

The chanter stopped abruptly, and Agamotto suddenly opened his eyes. A small cluster of Eternal Fire, which he had obtained from the Fire Giant, emerged from Agamotto's fingertips and flew to Hela's right palm with his guidance.

Feeling the heat of the Eternal Fire in her hand, Hela instinctively turned to look at her father behind her.

"Go, Hela."

Odin gave his daughter a serious push.

"Yes, Father." Hela took a deep breath, leaped to Agamotto's side, and slammed the Eternal Fire mixed with the Death Divinity into the ground with her right palm!

Boom!!!!

On the ground, the mark belonging to the lineage of the Sorcerer Supreme was completely illuminated!
