That was still the same answer.
If Lake had not devoured Ego, he might still have feared Odin to some extent. Unfortunately, after Lake devoured Ego, Odin could no longer make him wary.
Moreover, as time passed, this relationship was deepening further.
Odin was already trapped in the cursed time of Ragnarok, with no way to reverse it. As time went on, under the curse, Odin's power would only continue to decline.
Lake's power, on the other hand, would steadily and orderly grow stronger over time, along with Ego in the Dark Abyss.
So...
What could Odin possibly use to fight him?
Was he relying on impotent rage?
Actually, if Odin could enter Odin's Sleep and recover some of his strength after awakening, it was not impossible for him to have a proper fight with Lake.
Unfortunately, Odin could no longer enter Odin's Sleep.
More precisely, Odin could enter his slumber, but he did not dare to.
The reason was simple.
The curse of Ragnarok was already irreversible. If Odin entered his slumber at this point, then, heh, he might truly never wake up again.
Therefore, as far as Lake was concerned, there was no such thing as releasing a tiger back into the mountains. Odin might once have been a tiger, but now, even if he was still a tiger, he was merely a sick one.

Hermione raised an eyebrow.
Lake smiled faintly. He already held the initiative in this war. Lake had always enjoyed taking risks, but he only did so in situations where he would not capsize the boat.
