Loki was a criminal, without a doubt, but a line had to be added before the word "criminal."
Asgard's criminal.
Even if Loki was not Odin's son, merely being an Asgardian meant that no matter what planet he was on or what evil deeds he had committed, only Asgard could judge him—and only Asgard.
No exceptions!
And now, Heaven was so blatantly demanding that Asgard hand over Loki—the Loki who was the Son of Odin—so that Heaven could torture him?
This...
Odin's thoughts were unknown, but Thor would absolutely never agree. After all, Loki was his little brother. Even if he had been adopted, he was still his brother.
Above Heaven.
After the bloodbath, Heaven had become unusually quiet. Beneath the gentle starlight of the night sky, lights had been lit throughout Heaven's cities, forming a fire dragon that converged from all directions onto Angel Mountain, located at the very center of Heaven.
Within Angel Palace.
Lake stood with his hands behind his back, looking up at the throne that symbolized the seat of the overlord in the magnificent palace.
"Cough, cough."
"..."
Lake withdrew his gaze and turned to look over. Raising his eyebrows, he smiled. "Hexi."
Hexi, dressed in military uniform and sporting smooth silver hair as white as snow, walked in from outside in her boots. After kissing Lake, she stood beside him and looked at the overlord's throne on the high platform. "You really don't have any thoughts about it?"
Lake smiled. "The Three Kings Era is quite good. What do you think, Heavenly Base King?"
Hexi lowered her head and gathered her beautiful hair. Just as Liang Bing had told Lake repeatedly over the past few days, she said to him, "Thank you, darling."
Lake was already too lazy to say anything else. He chuckled.
