As for the Rainbow Bridge, it's essentially a simplified, more stable version of the ability, turning it into a daily-use device. Of course, there's a difference: the Rainbow Bridge device consumes less energy and can continually channel enough power to destroy planets.

"I wonder if I have the ability to use Rainbow Bridge teleportation?" Syd mused with curiosity.

However, since he didn't know exactly how it was used and lacked a tool like the King's Scepter or Thor's Stormbreaker, it seemed impossible for him to utilize it at the moment. While Syd pondered, over at the Asgardian royal palace, a strong figure appeared-Thor.

As soon as he landed, Thor exclaimed excitedly, "Father, Heimdall, I'm finally back! I thought I'd be stuck in Midgard forever, never to see you again..."

Before he could continue his joyous rambling, Odin frowned and sternly interrupted, "Enough!"

Startled, Thor quickly stopped, looking at his father with confusion. What was going on with Odin today? Could it be... was this what Midgardians call "midlife crisis"?

"Thor, tell me everything that has happened to you during your time in Midgard," Odin demanded.

Thor, now more alert, began to recount his experiences on Earth, from his fight with Iron Man, Captain America, and the others to his encounter with the White Knight. He mentioned how the White Knight had used Mjolnir and displayed divine powers, which led Thor to suspect that he might be his brother.

As Thor spoke, he glanced suspiciously at his father, searching for any reaction.

"It was truly divine power?" Heimdall reacted with shock.

Long ago, Heimdall had sensed something akin to divine power emanating from the White Knight but hadn't been certain. Now, hearing Thor's words confirmed his earlier suspicions.

If the White Knight indeed possessed divine power, it explained why he could wield Mjolnir.

Heimdall, grappling with this revelation, asked cautiously, "Are you certain it wasn't a mistake?"

Before Thor could answer, footsteps echoed through the room. The three turned to see Queen Frigga entering.

The atmosphere shifted immediately. Sensing the tension and having overheard part of the conversation, Frigga asked, "Divine power? What were you talking about?"

Even Odin seemed momentarily at a loss for words, not knowing how to explain things to Frigga.

Seeing Odin's discomfort, Frigga turned to her son. "Thor?"

Feeling cornered, Thor hesitated for a few seconds before timidly saying, "Well, mother, it's like this..."

After recounting everything to Frigga, her expression shifted slightly, and she instinctively looked toward Odin, who was visibly uneasy under her gaze.

"Are you certain there was no mistake?" Frigga asked, her tone full of skepticism.

Thor vigorously shook his head. "No, absolutely not! I could clearly sense it-he has divine power, and it's not something any ordinary Asgardian possesses!"

While speaking, Thor snuck a quick, furtive glance at Odin, hoping Frigga didn't notice.

Sensing the growing awkwardness, Heimdall quickly shifted the conversation to avoid further tension.

"So, he defeated you effortlessly?" Heimdall asked.

Everyone's attention turned to Thor again. Looking slightly dejected, Thor nodded and said, "Father, Mother, Heimdall-you have no idea how powerful he is! It only took a single exchange, and I was completely overpowered. His strength was overwhelming. My human friends and I were all defeated in an instant, and we felt powerless against him..."

"And he could summon Mjolnir and even wield it better than I can!" Thor added, sounding even more downhearted.

As Thor recounted his defeat, Frigga looked shocked, while both Odin and Heimdall's expressions grew more complex.

They knew well how formidable Thor was-he was one of the mightiest warriors in Asgard. For him to be defeated so easily by someone else was astonishing.

Although they hadn't witnessed the battle firsthand, just imagining it was enough to understand how one-sided and overwhelming it must have been.

Moreover, Thor had mentioned that others were present-beings who, in his words, could hold their own against him for several rounds. Yet, they too had been bested in a single strike. Suddenly, Thor remembered something and turned to his father. "Oh, right, Father! He mentioned something about the 'Rune King Thor.' He said that if I could comprehend the power of the runes and awaken my divine powers, combining them, I could become a true

god."

"He called it the Rune King Thor," Thor said, still unsure if the White Knight had been serious or just making casual remarks.

However, the moment Thor spoke those words, both Odin and Frigga's expressions shifted noticeably.

A brief silence followed before Odin admitted, "Thor, if you truly follow his advice, you could indeed become a true god."

Odin's eyes now gleamed with anticipation as he looked at his son.

"What?!" Thor was taken aback, staring at his father in disbelief.

Did this mean the White Knight had been telling the truth all along? He hadn't been lying?

Thor was stunned. "He knows so much... It's incredible! Is there anything he doesn't know?" The idea that becoming Rune King Thor was real left Thor both awestruck and amazed. (End of Chapter)
