Chapter 7

Tensions we're rising between the Asgardian and Vanir gods. It has been several millennia since Bor Burison conquered vanaheim for Asgard, many have forgotten such a past, but there's still those that hold a grudge and if given the opportunity... they would declare war on Asgard.

===========

It has been a few months since I arrived in vanaheim. Currently I'm at the academy with the professors trying to teach how to use magic

"You need to concentrate Alex, empty your mind of unnecessary distractions and focus on driving the mystical energy out of your body just like we practiced yesterday."

In all honesty I had read and understood the books given to me in the first day and was able to completely learn the art of magic by the third, well at least the basics and was just taking it slow for now. They have been teaching me probably out of pity since I read that it took decades for the talented and centuries for the average to master and this vanir looked like the latter.

"I'm trying! ahh!"

And a little bit of my magic came out of my hands as a form of sparks. It was really hard pretending to make the 'I'm taking a sh!t' face when this was really easy.

"Good work Alex if you keep practicing you'll be master in a few centuries just like me and I might present you my daughter"

Said the professor with a smug look in his face. That silver haired bastard

"yeah sure I'll be just as great koran"

Suddenly we heard a guard opening the door to our classroom with a look of urgency

"Sorry master Koran for interrupting, but I have urgent news! you have been summoned to the war council hall."

The War Council AKA The Council of War

suddenly Koran turned and looked at me with a serious look

"You're dismissed Alex go back to your room and rest, you must be tired from all the practicing we've been doing."

=========

Couple of minutes later

War Hall

"what's this I hear about a war council summon."

Koran walks in irritated

"Koran glad you could make it, please take a seat."

says jorunn looking outside the window

"Hello Jorunn been a while, now what's the problem, not often there's a war"

said Koran sitting with rest of those there.

"Yes our priestesses had a vision about an impending invasion in no less than 3 days."

said jorunn

"3 days huh... is too little time, tch...is it Asgard? Do we know anything yet?" said Koran

"No not yet and it isn't Asgard from what the oracles have told us...as cryptic as they are" said finn one of leading strategist of the war council

"what can we do?" ask jorunn

"There's not much we can do, but to fortify our defences, our protection arrays, and ready our armies. we will know more once the invaders land, will need to know the where, and how" said finn

" Oh speaking of, with the express command of our king, I have been given the rank of general of the vanir army giving me full authority on how to operate it and I have appointed the rest of you as my commanders" said jorunn making the rest of the council nod with agreement.

The War Council continued to talk about the invasion for a couple more hours until they decided to ended and continue the next day.

=============

'So if I can manage to control my regenerative healing factor, I might be able to control my entire body on a cellular level. Hmm that'd be interesting to experience, I wonder if it might help with mastering my control over my evolu-.'

"Alex get your ass up we're going to war."

Alex deep in thought sitting in a meditative position is suddenly interrupted by the opening of his bedroom door.

It was fucking Koran

"what's going? How come there's a war? With who? Is it Asgard?"
