Stupid Odin

#163 - Odin the Yellowbird

Emerging from the 【Sky】 Divine Realm, the Danu gods returning to their homeland never imagined the situation in the lower realm would be so dire.

To express their determination to defend their homeland, they even destroyed all their airships upon arriving at Emerald Isle, demonstrating their resolve to share its fate.

Frankly, Nuada's move was simply to block the retreat of the opposition, forcing them to be of one mind with him.

These cowards at heart could never truly become warriors.

The moment Nuada died, even without the retreat horn, most of the Danu gods immediately lost their will to fight, fleeing with their divine attendants.

Some of the more resolute Danu gods gathered their direct subordinates, desperately holding out against the blue tide of chaos giants, using hillocks or city walls for defense.

But after only a few rounds, they were completely overwhelmed by the giants.

Any sensible observer would clearly see from this scene that the spine of this divine army had been broken.

Unless a new leader could reverse the situation and slay the chieftain of the Fomorian giants, washing away the stain on this army and re-establishing its prestige,

its glory would be forever extinguished on this land.

Actually, after seeing this, Thor felt bored. He stood up and bowed to Thanes: "Father God, do we need to watch any further? I want to go practice my martial arts!"

"Sit down, Thor. A war isn't over until the very last moment," Thanes said with such certainty, piquing the curiosity of the gods.

And their curiosity reached its peak when the next scene unfolded.

Logically speaking, the Danu gods were already in complete disarray. They retreated at least thirty kilometers, hiding in a settlement in the mountains, barely managing to stop the rout.

There, the remaining chief gods of the Danu regrouped. Clearly, the chief gods, having lost their leader Nuada once again, were in low spirits.

Just then, a young and handsome new god—the God of Light, Lugh—stepped forward.

"We cannot give up here! We have no way to retreat! Emerald Isle is only so big; we will eventually be found and destroyed by the giant army brought by Bres."

"What do you want to do?" The Father of the Gods, Dagda, realized he was right.

"We raid the giants! Right now!"

"Now?"

"We were raided during a celebration. We can turn this trick against the Fomorian giants!"

At this moment, Siegfried stepped forward: "Lord Lugh is right. Our people have heard that the giants' camp is holding a feast. They are drinking the rest of our wine in a frenzy of celebration, and they have even cast Nuada's head and silver arm together to use as a drinking cup."

The brutal actions of Balor, chieftain of the chaos giants, enraged the Danu gods, and they quickly planned a raid at dawn.

And they succeeded.

The state of these chaos giants was even worse than that of the Danu gods after three days of celebration.

Most of the giants were dead drunk. Not to mention hearing the sounds of battle, even if they heard their chieftain sound the call to gather, they remained fast asleep.

As a result, these unlucky fellows had their heads easily severed by the divine attendants of the Danu gods in their sleep.

The new leader of the Danu gods, Lugh, then stepped forward to challenge Balor.

Balor was heavily drunk, and he was too old. Without attendants to help him pry open his massive eyelids, he couldn't even open his eyes to unleash his world-destroying evil eye beam.

Lugh harnessed the power of the rainbow and the Milky Way to create a sling of light, launching a huge light orb that pierced Balor's magic eye and killed Balor with the divine spear 【Brionac】!

Actually, after seeing this, the Aesir gods and giants were at most surprised.

"No way, they can turn this around?"

"Have our opponents become the Danu gods?"

"This opponent is a bit interesting."

A paean composed of blood and courage is the easiest to resonate with. Even if they looked down on the Danu gods' previous cowardice and stupidity, they had to acknowledge this point.

After watching for a long time, the Aesir gods and giants were a little hungry and were about to leave when Thanes spoke up a second time to keep them: "Everyone, please don't leave yet; bear with it a little longer."

"Hmm?" Thor and the others were truly astonished.

Only Thanes on the God-King's throne revealed a meaningful expression.

Sure enough, just as the Danu gods' forces turned around and began chasing down the surviving giants across the mountains and fields, all the way to the seaside, another unexpected event occurred.

"Splish splash!"

Countless sounds of water suddenly rang out, and one after another, burly chaos giants with distorted limbs and facial features emerged from the sea.

They lined up in a row, and looking out, their numbers were not at all less than the previous chaos army.

If such a terrifying number of chaos giants weren't coming to attack Emerald Isle, but even if they invested one-tenth of their forces into the neighboring kingdoms, it would be enough to destroy those small kingdoms.

Not to mention mortals, this left absolutely no chance for the Danu gods!

Lugh knew very well that his people had fought fiercely all day yesterday, hadn't rested well last night, and had come to raid Balor's giant clan again; they were already at the end of their rope.

They chased to the seaside, similarly exhausting their strength.

Most of the Danu warriors had no chance to even run away, let alone fight.

Lugh had no choice. He knew that his only chance was to kill the enemy leader.

What surprised Lugh was that the other side seemed to have changed leaders. That Elatha was actually standing beside an even taller, unfamiliar giant like a servant, with his head bowed.

At this moment, Bres, who had already been captured by the Danu gods, was terrified, because he saw that his biggest backer—his own cheap old dad—had actually given the tusk necklace symbolizing the leader to that new giant.

Looking at the face of that chaos giant, Bres was dumbfounded. He suddenly exclaimed: "Odin? You're actually Odin? How did you become the leader of the Elatha clan?"

"The Elatha clan?" Odin, who had turned into a chaos giant again, grinned: "Heh heh! This deep-sea giant clan has already been renamed the Odin Kingdom First Giant Legion!"

Odin Kingdom?

What the heck?

The Danu gods were momentarily stunned.

However, that was not important; these giants were still their enemies.

What they were waiting for was just an order from their new leader, Lugh.

Whether to fight, make peace, or run away depended on Lugh's word.

Lugh shouted loudly: "You call yourself Odin, right? Do you dare to have a one-on-one duel with me—Lugh, the new leader of the Danu gods?"

Odin curled his lips and looked at the deep-sea giants beside him, who were showing fearful expressions. He had absorbed the power of chaos, allowing his size to return to that of an Aesir god, but that was all it was—size.

He no longer had divine power; he was relying solely on the power of chaos.

If he wanted to obtain even greater power, devouring a native deity might be a good idea.

Moreover, Odin had to further prove himself with the merits of an external war.

He smiled: "A duel? Possible! But as long as you lose! The entire Danu god clan will become my servants!"
