Chapter 317: New King
"Welcome to Asgard. I hope you will find our hospitality satisfactory." Frigga said in order to elevate the awkwardness of the room.
"It's an honor to meet you, Queen Frigga." Wayne said
"The honor is mine too." Queen Frigga said as she too could feel the power flowing out from the body of Wayne. Wayne hasn't been able to grasp his new form completely so he was still finding trouble in order to be total stealth like before.
"The coronation will be at night. Please do attend."
This time it was Atreus who said. She too, like others, was beside Frigga.
"Is he Kratos's child?" Diana said.
"Yes. In a sense you are his aunt." John said. Everybody laughed at it thinking suddenly out of nowhere Diana became an aunt.
"Where is he by the way?" John asked.
"He is busy handling the decorations. He wanted to participate in it." Frigga said.
"Wow. That is a huge change in personality." Banner said as they all had played the game and they knew how grumpy that old guy is. After talking for a good half an hour they all went to work. They wanted to participate in the decorations so all wanted to join their hands in this.
Finally night came, and the ceremony started. All the Avengers and the close friends of Thor took up positions near the throne ready to welcome the new King.
As they were all cheering and rejoicing, the main door of the hall opened only to reveal Thor in a classic Asgardian armor. He looked stunning. He started walking towards the throne at a slow pace.
As he came near the throne he stopped and turned back. Everybody was surprised by that because they all expected him to go and sit on the throne. As they were all in confusion of why Thor was not sitting and becoming the King of Asgard, Loki came up while wearing the same attire of an Asgardian.
He too came up near the throne and turned back.
"Why is neither Thor or Loki sitting on the throne? I thought at least Loki will sit on the throne even though we might not have accepted it." Hal said.
"It's because Atreus is going to be the King of Asgard." Strange said.
"Huh. What?" Everybody shouted. It surprised everybody as they didn't expect Atreus to be the new king, and that included John too. When John brought the duo to Asgard, he wanted them just to keep an eye on everything here.
But later out of nowhere, he became a godson. And now he would be appointed as the King of Asgard. As they were in shock, Thor finally spoke up in a loud voice to everybody.
"The last few years have been quite eventful for Asgard. Many things happened. Loki betraying us. We, getting attacked by Dark Elves. Our father's death and us finding out that we have two sisters. And now both sisters are in prison. All these years made me realize that the crown of a King is not meant for me. If I become the King, nothing good will come out of it. And Loki, well he is Loki. So we both decided to make Atreus as the next King of Asgard."
This news caused an uproar in all the people present in the hall. They all really didn't expect Atreus, the godson whom Frigga adopted, would be the new King. As they were all discussing this, Atreus came up to the door, with a proper kingly attire.
The hall fell into silence as he arrived. Atreus felt shy and a little scared as he didn't expect that he would be the King of this new place where he arrived a few years ago. Asgard had given him nothing but love and kindness. He had been treated royally and he couldn't expect anything more.
But being the King of Asgard was totally something else. He would have to maintain the same prosperity during his tenure and he wasn't sure if he was ready for that. As he was thinking this his father finally stepped behind him.
"Go. Be a good King boy. Don't repeat the same mistakes I did. It's your time now. We all will be helping you in this journey of becoming a good king." Kratos said.
"Yes father." Atreus said as he finally stepped into the hall. All broke into cheers as he stepped in, welcoming the new King of Asgard. Though the people would have liked Thor to sit on the throne, but since he denied it, nothing could be said to change it.
In any case, it's not like Thor or Loki were dead. They were alive and well, so even if Atreus sat on the throne, he would still be with the two brothers.
Atreus finally stepped near the throne. He took a deep breath, looking at the huge throne.
"Sit, King Atreus. You are more deserving than any of us." Thor said.
