Chapter 12 - Preparations (2/2)
Theoric saluted her- ”Theoric of the Crimson Hawks reporting in.”
Tilda waved her hand- ”At ease, it seems your a lucky one Theoric, I was told by Odin himself to reassign you to a battle unit, it was left up to you to decide which.” she said handing him a golden sash so he wouldn't be hindered by anyone.
”Keep that on you until you decide, then fall in line with whoever is in charge of the unit you picked, you are not allowed to take command for obvious reasons.”
”Understood, thank you ma'am.” he saluted again.
”Go get out of here before the rest arrive and give you a hard time.” she waved him away a bit jealous as well, she did love her job, but sometimes she wished to just be out there fighting like the rest.
Theoric grinned as he turned to leave making sure to avoid any of the other men that might come and complain to him to take them along.
Soldiers were now out on the streets marching to their designated spots, war was in the air permeating throughout Asgard.
It's been a long time since Asgard went to a full-scale war, the last being against Jotunheim: Home of the Jötunn (Frost Giants).
Asgard was fully prepared for war, some might think it extreme for going against the barbaric Rock Trolls, but the fear for many was getting stabbed in the back by the Frost Giants should they wish to take advantage of the situation.
Odin was making sure they were not caught off guard should they have to defend against such a surprise attack.
Theoric arrived at the hanger's looking for a unit that would be out front attacking, he needed to experience plenty of battle to fully utilize his new capabilities.
The Bifrost serving as both weapon and transport was only used for the highest-ranked and in an emergency when required under the direct control of Odin, guarded by Heimdall.
He saw the warriors three, famous for being friends of Thor, sneering at them on the inside.
He saw the lovely lady Sif at another place taking command of her unit and contemplated whether to join, but shook his head to get rid of his impure thoughts as his libido started to rise from watching her.
After Hela's misfortune, lady Sif was a candidate for him to replace her, but she was stupidly infatuated with Thor, not understanding why maybe it was like Stockholm syndrome seeing as how she spent her childhood with that spoiled buffoon.
Thor still thinks that his hammer can only be wielded by him because he's worthy, not realizing it's only because Odin has enchanted the weapon so only he could wield it.
It's also no surprise that he relies completely on the weapon for everything because of it.
Odin certainly did a number on him, raising him to think he was better than everyone and he wonders why Thor defies him in the future and attacks the Frost Giants in an attempt to wipe them all out.
