Perseus POV -
After everyone have dinner they left one by one. Most of the Gods and other members of different places have already gone back to there realms. Right now only Father, Mother, my siblings and us were here. We have somethings to discuss.
Father asked,'' Now that your kingdom has been established. So what now?''
I replied, '' The expansion ''
Father looked solemn after hearing this. His eyes looked far away like he is remembering something from distant past. Mother put her hand on his shoulder to bring him back. He shook his head and said, '' You are a king, but your realm still comes under the Asgard. So you do need my permission to wage war on other planets. And I will grant it to you But remember something I will tell you from experience my son do not loose yourself in all the battle and never enjoy killing.
Because the moment you started enjoy taking a life that is the very moment you became a murderer instead of a warrior. There is a very thin line between a warrior and a murderer. And it will become even more thinner the more you fight.''
I smiled because I felt the concern in his voice. I said,'' Don't worry father. My way of expansion is different from what you say. I do not want to conquer any planet through bloodshed. It will only bring me more dead bodies. I will grant protection to the weaker planet. While It may be slow but it is the method I like.
So do not worry you have my word I will not loose myself.''
He smiled at this. Relief could be seen in his eyes. He said,'' So hereby I grant you the permission to expand your kingdom and also promise you that any planet you will win will have nothing to do with Asgard. You will have the free reign over all those planets.
And if you need any help from us just tell.''
I shook my head in answer and said,'' Since they are my planets then I can not very well except any kind of help from you. That will be wrong.
But don't worry I will not try to expand my kingdom unless I am absolutely ready.''
He nod his head and then we talked about some small matters. Then we bid our farewell and Father and Mother left the Vanaheim. All my siblings went with them except Thor. He came to me and said,'' If you need my help then I am just a call away. Okk.''
I hugged him and replied, ''I know brother. I know. Don't worry if I will need any help then I will not hesitate to call you because really there is no place for hesitation between brothers. ''
He nod his head and stopped talking. I knew he want to ask something just finding the better words to spell it. In the end he opened his mouth to say,'' What should I do now? ''
I will not say that I was not confuse because it is not in Thor's behavior to ask someone else for advice. He must have seen the confusion on my face so he chuckled and said,'' I was away from home for almost ten years. Although nothing has changed there but my own prospective has changed. Something feels off there. I want to change somethings there but I do not how?''
Even I do not know what to say. Usually these kinds of things were left to Anna. So I looked at her and she came forward and said, '' Brother firstly you have to understand you can't change anything in a day. Then you will have many decisions to take. Like making your important people and your siblings stronger. Discussing with your father what you want to change and implement. And other steps.
But most important thing for all this is patience. You have to keep patience. It will be a long road, so tread carefully. ''
Thor was silent for a while and then nodded his head. After that he also bid us farewell. After sending everyone away, I also turned towards Anna and asked,'' So what now? How will we take our step further.''
She said,'' Although you have decided to expand our territory but we are not ready for that. We will need many things before we can move forward.
Like technology, ships, weapons, star map, and many many more things. We have to start our preparation. And even if we work with all our efficiency it will take time to get ready unless of course you expect us to use magic and rush things.''
Her last word were spoken in a different tone. It was more like a challenge for me to say it. And since I know Anna then I also know it that she does not like using magic to built something. She like to mix magic and science in any technology but do not like to use magic to make things.
According to her it takes away the happiness of building something from ground up. She says that it is an work of art to build anything from your hands. That you have a sense of creation this way. Bringing your imagination to life. I truly don't understand all this hassel. I mean if you have an easy way then take it.
But I knew better then to argue. So I said,'' Of course not. These things are always left to you. So even this time handle as you like.''
Then she asked,''Which army will you use? I mean you have many armies like your Shadow army, Light army, Demon army, Angel army, Animal army and others. So which one will you use.''
Animal army she is talking about is the army of my infinite dimension. Yes after much persuasion she allowed us to go there. It is a beautiful and It is also the Place where I met many interesting peoples. This is also the place where my two animal longinus live. LION KING REGULAS NEMEA AND WOLF DOG CANIS LYKAN.
I do not want to use this army. Although they are powerful, I mean all the animals there are divine grade but I am not comfortable using them. So I said,'' We will use the Angle army. Tell them to prepare and You will also built the best armor and weapons for them ok.''
She nods her head in understanding and left me there to prepare for everything.
