Chapter 171: The Inevitable Twilight of the Gods
"Sorcerer's duty is to protect the Earth, but as the Sorcerer Supreme, I certainly don't work tirelessly all year round."
The Ancient One led Oaks on a tour of the secret Kamar-Taj.
Skoll and Hati, who were acting unruly outside, behaved as meek as real dogs when they entered.
They could clearly sense the vast magical power emanating from the Ancient One.
This person could kill them with just a flick of her finger.
And the apprentice Sorcerers of Kamar-Taj didn't dare make a sound when they looked at the Sorcerer Supreme bringing guests and even allowing pets.
The Ancient One had never believed Oaks' nonsense about his abilities being the result of a scientific experiment.
Although she didn't delve into the matter, she was sure that he couldn't continue with his nonsense about a scientific accident because Oaks was different now.
As fellow magic users, albeit from different schools, Ancient One appreciated Oaks' use of magic for good.
"When I have free time, I enter a meditative state to use my heightened sensitivity to sense potential troubles."
"Then it is still work, isn't it??"
Oaks smirked. Being the Sorcerer Supreme wasn't easy either.
Managing such a large organization and personally handling incidents meant even during the relaxation of meditation, one had to remain vigilant to potential threats.
It sounded exhausting.
"After all these years, I've grown accustomed to it. You don't seem surprised by my abilities here?"
The Ancient One admired Oaks' composure. Ordinary people who came to Kamar-Taj would find their eyes insufficient.
"After all, I'm also a "spellcaster", and I just returned from the "realm of the gods", Asgard..."
Oaks rubbed his chin.
"I also found Avalon."
"What?!"
Now it was the Ancient One's turn to be surprised. She stopped in her tracks and turned to Oaks with astonishment.
"You... found it?"
"Yes, not only does it have a spatial channel to Earth, but it also has spatial channels to the Nine Realms' Alfheim and Helheim. I stumbled upon it by chance."
Oaks nodded, but he certainly wouldn't reveal his whole story to Ancient One.
"It's possible to confirm it as Avalon based on the legendary description, I found the heritage of the Ancient Druids and the Sacred Oak Tree in its center."
In fact, Oaks wasn't lying. That place was indeed the sacred ground of the Ancient Druids' heritage, but it had its own story.
"No wonder when I saw you, I felt that you had changed. It's as if you can blend into the environment at any time."
The Ancient One nodded knowingly with a slight smile tugging at the corner of her lips.
"Congratulations. Now you no longer need to conceal your heritage under the pretext of a scientific accident."
"Well, Yes, I use Nature magic."
Oaks shrugged nonchalantly.
"But I won't explain unless they ask."
"Hehe..."
The Ancient One chuckled lightly and snapped her fingers. They suddenly appeared in a meditation chamber, with a tea table between them.
Neatly arranged on the tea table was a set of antique-looking tea utensils and the Sorcerer Supreme personally began making tea.
"Tsk, I've envied this method of spatial displacement for a long time."
It was impossible for Oaks to say that he didn't envy it, but he couldn't learn that technique.
"In fact, I came to find you because I sensed those two," Ancient One pointed to Skoll and Hati, who were squatting on Oaks' left and right, looking obedient.jpg, and reminded him with interest, "By the way, don't forget to get them dog licenses."
"Of course, Skoll, Hati, reveal your true forms. This is the Earth's Sorcerer Supreme, a close friend of Odin."
Skoll and Hati shivered and immediately transformed back into their wolf forms, bowing their heads in salute.
"We greet the Sorcerer Supreme!"
They were well aware of Odin's level.
Indeed, she was an old friend of Odin. The tremendous power she exuded was terrifying.
After briefly recounting his journey to Asgard to Ancient One, Oaks patted Skoll and Hati and smiled casually.
"Please rest assured, Sorcerer Supreme. I will take good care of them, and they won't cause any trouble."
"That's good..."
Ancient One moved her fingers, and the tea she had brewed appeared in Oaks' hands.
If Oaks could make good use of the two magic wolves, there was no doubt that Earth would have two powerful guardians for its safety.
And now, onto the main point.
"The resurrection of the God of Light, Baldur, is something you cannot avoid being involved in."
The Ancient One took a sip of tea and pondered as she fanned herself with her folding fan.
"Odin rewarded and bestowed the title upon you in the presence of my seal, and then sent you to resurrect Baldur. That old man has become more and more cunning as he ages."
"But if he thinks that with Baldur's resurrection, the Aesir can rest easy and ignore the Ragnarok, then he is gravely mistaken."
Oaks was slightly startled and put down his teacup.
"What do you mean? Are there hidden details involved?"
"Ragnarok is destined."
This statement had an almost infinite credibility close to one hundred percent coming from Ancient One, who possessed the Time Stone.
"But with Baldur's resurrection, the aura of the twilight has indeed dissipated... This can be confirmed by Skoll and Hati."
Oaks looked at the two wolves... or dogs. They both nodded, Skoll kept his mouth shut, and Hati spoke up:
"The aura of the twilight has indeed dissipated within us, but we can't be sure if it's because we lost our powers or because of Baldur's resurrection—"
"In theory, his influence shouldn't be that significant as an Aesir. His power is insignificant compared to Odin's. Perhaps the spreading of the aura of the twilight over these years has nothing to do with him at all?"
Oaks had to admit that this was also a possibility.
But his intuition told him that everything was still related to Baldur.
"I don't know the details about Baldur either. It would be inappropriate to pry into the affairs of Odin's eldest son."
The Ancient One's expression remained calm. Ultimately, it was Odin's family matter, and her hand couldn't reach that far.
However, Ragnarok in Asgard would undoubtedly have a significant impact on Earth, so the Ancient One had to warn Oaks, the Earthling most deeply entangled in this matter.
"The war in the Nine Realms is not yet over. Let's see how Asgard acts next. When the three princes gather together, it will undoubtedly be quite lively."
Oaks rubbed his temples with a headache. It seemed that the problem still lay with Odin.
The Spring of Vitality was like a drop in the ocean for Odin. It would be enough for him to have a good exchange with the Queen.
In other words, although Odin can maintain his full strength in battle, he only has a few years of life left.
"By the way, Sorcerer Supreme."
Oaks suddenly remembered something else.
"What are your thoughts on the possibility of the future queen of Asgard being an Earthling?"
