Chapter 46: 46 – Meeting the Smartest Man Alive (2)

With the speed of Kratos and Poseidon, it didn't take long for them to get to the location Mimir spoke of. Of course, Kratos knew how to get there, but with a little help from Mimir, they got there faster.

''Is this it?'' Kratos asked, looking at the house in front of him.

Mimir nodded, "As far as I know, this is where she lives. I could be wrong, but I'm not usually wrong, so I'm right.''

Poseidon smirked at the interaction, '' Should we knock on the door?''

Mimir nodded again, '' Before we enter, I will tell you something about Freya, so you can get in her good graces. First, you'll have to beat me up a bit.''

Poseidon punched Mimir straight away. Mimir looked at Poseidon after recovering from the punch, '' Why did you do that!?''

'' You asked me to hit you, so I did.'' Poseidon was innocent.

Mimir was incredulous, '' I didn't even explain why you should hit me and you just did!?''

'' Well, you're the one who's supposed to be the smartest man alive, so I trusted you.''

The thing that irritated Mimir the most is that Poseidon was technically correct, '' Okay, now that you gave me a black eye, one thing is out of the way to gain her help.''

''Don't mention Odin or anything like that. Let me do the talking too. There's a lot of other things, but those are the most important points.''

Kratos, Atreus, and Poseidon nodded.

'' Mimir, remember that we will help you get your revenge as long as you help us.'' Poseidon knew a little bit of Mimir's personality, but it doesn't hurt to remind the man about his revenge.

''Don't worry about it, I know what I must do.'' To say Mimir wanted revenge was an understatement. He was tortured daily for over a century by Odin, so his hatred reached a whole new level.

So Mimir saw in Poseion and Kratos a chance to kill that bastard of a God. ' But for now, I must deal with a pissed Freya.'

Just remembering that he was the one who came with the suggestion for Freya to marry Odin, filled Mimir with apprehension about what she will do to him.

' But it's better than living as a prisoner forever... Besides helping the lad, I could even make her help me. It's not going to be easy, but it's worth a try.'

Mimir took a deep breath, '' Let's go.''

Poseidon carried Mimir's tree body to the door, while Kratos and Atreus followed right behind. He then knocked on the door.

WITH FREYA

Today was just another day for Freya. She was hated by her own people, her son turned on her, her 'husband' is probably the worst of the worst across the nine realms, and she was living in exile while being banished from every other realm other than Midgard.

She tried to be happy, she really did, but the weight of her choices put a heavy burden on being happy. She would spend days reminiscing her life before that fucker Odin entered into the conversation. She really loved Odin for a while, until she saw the real him beneath the facade.

' I had friends, family... now I'm worthless. I can't even fight anymore.'

Odin cursed her when she left him, making the former leader of the legendary Valkyries lose the ability to fight, either physically or magically. He also took her wings, making her even more miserable.

But this doesn't mean she wasn't trying to live a happy life with the things she has now. Of course, it was a long journey, but sometimes she was happy.

And today Freya felt something different, ' It was such a long time ago that I felt this way. Maybe something good will happen to me!'

While thinking that it was unlikely something good would happen to her, she heard a knock on the door to her house. She was instantly on alert, ' Who could it be? I don't really have a friend, and this house was supposed to be hidden...'

Approaching the door while preparing for anything, she asked, '' Who is there?''

It was silence for a while until Freya heard a voice she thought she would never hear before, '' Freya, it's me... Mimir. Please open the door.''

And open the door she did. She was shocked by what she saw. 2 men, a tree that had the face of Mimir, and a young boy. She snapped out of her shock and said, '' The last thing I thought would be seeing you, Mimir. What brings you here?''

Mimir saw the look Freya was giving him and started to regret his decision to come here. Regardless, he still talked, '' I came in peace. Can we enter and talk with you?''

Freya looked at the 2 men and realized they were Gods, but not from this realm. She also realized Atreus was special. After debating for a minute, she let them enter, '' Come in.''

Poseidon, Kratos, Atreus, and Mimir entered Freya's house. Poseidon made sure to hit Mimir's head at the door. This seems to have pleased Freya a little.

'' You can sit anywhere you want... Now, I assume you want something for me because I can't see any other reason why you came here.'' Freya sat down.

Mimir nodded, '' We came here seeking help...''

Just as Mimir predicted, Freya exploded on him, '' Oh, now I'm supposed to help you after you did to me!''

Mimir sighed, '' It was my mistake. I thought that would bring peace, but Odin was crazier than I originally thought. He's a monster.''

Freya didn't stop cursing Mimir though. Atreus looked at her with curiosity, ' Where did she learn how to curse like that?'

Kratos didn't care if Atreus heard it.

After a few minutes of nonstop cursing from Freya, she stopped. Mimir took this opportunity, '' Can I talk about what we came here for? I promise this times its a good thing.''

Freya got up and approached Mimir, '' Just one more thing.'' She spits on Mimir and punches his face.

'' That was 2 things.''

Freya punched him again. '' Fair.''

After that, Freya sat down again, '' Talk.''

' Finally.' Mimir then started slowly, '' I came here with an offer you might find attractive... As long as you help this boy here, those gentlemen will help you.''

Freya was interested now, '' And how exactly would they help me?''

Going against what Mimir said, Poseidon interveined, '' I can help you kill Odin.'' This didn't make Freya have much of a reaction, '' And, I can help your son forgive you.''

This made Freya listen, '' Continue. If I think something that came out of your mouth to be a lie, you can leave.''

Poseidon nodded, '' I'll just say something that maybe can gain your trust... mistletoe''

That made the air freeze. Mimir looked at Poseidon with shock, ' Freya put a curse on me to never talk about Baldur or his curse. How does he know that mistletoe is the weakness of the curse!?'

Baldur came to Mimir many times throughout the years, to ask for a cure for his curse of invulnerability, but as Mimir was cursed by Freya to never speak anything related to that, he couldn't help Baldur.

After a moment of Freya looking at Poseidon with murderous intent, she said, '' How do you know about it?''

'' Does it matter? What matters is that I know. I also know how to help you with the relationship with your son.'' Poseidon knew that Freya's weakness was Baldur.

' Well, I PROBABLY know how to fix their relationship, but she doesn't need to know that.'

After a while of silence, Freya said, '' What do you want?''

Poseidon smiled, ' She got the bait!'

However, it was Kratos who spoke this time, '' My son is dying.''

Freya recognized the look Kratos gave her, ' It's the same I have when anything related to Baldur comes up.'

''This boy here, its half-giant and half-God. We found out that the nature of those two powers is fighting for control inside the boy and killing him slowly. We went to Mimir looking for responses, and he told us to come to you.'' Poseidon told Freya everything.

Freya looked at Atreus again. She saw that Kratos would do anything to help his son, just like she did with Baldur. She, however, failed her son, nothing taking the things that he wants into consideration.

She put a curse of invulnerability on Baldur and told the man that she didn't know the cure, however, she was lying, as the cure is simple mistletoe.

Freya, even after years have passed, still didn't tell her son about this, in the hopes that he lives well, not caring if he hates her or not.

And Freya was weak against children. She sighed and told Atreus, '' Come here for a second.''

Atreus went after getting confirmation from Kratos. Freya put a hand on his head and closed her eyes. After a few moments, she opened it again. She was surprised, ' Both powers are extremely strong.'

'' I can help you, but ...'' Freya was hesitating to speak.

' We will probably need to go to Helheim, just like the game.' While Poseidon didn't remember certain things, some things stayed with him. The Helheim part was one of them.

'' You can speak.'' Kratos was prepared to do anything for his son.

'' You will need to go to-'' Before Freya could finish speaking, both Poseidon and Kratos got up from the ground, their faces showing shock and fury.

Poseidon already got his Trident out and went outside the house. Freya managed to stop Kratos before he left, '' What happened?''

Kratos looked at Freya, '' One of the Gods of my realm that came to this realm ... just died.''

Poseidon, even though he was furious, still remembered to tell Freya, '' We will continue this conversation later. I need one more favor from you. Two, in fact.''

'' Speak.'' Freya was curious as to what was happening, ' It's probably Odin doing...'

'' Take care of the boy for now, and free Mimir from that form. Then, I'll help you with your son. Do we have a deal?'' Poseidon was already impatient.

Freya looked at Atreus, who was talking with Kratos. Then, she looked at Mimir, ' It should be easy to do both, but ill take my time with Mimir.'

'' I promise you.'' It didn't take long for her to accept Poseidon's deal.

'' Good. Kratos, give me a ride.'' This time it was Poseidon who was going to be launched.

Kratos nodded, then went near Poseidon, '' I'll launch you in that direction, but the rest is up to you. I'll be here, taking care of Atreus's problem.''

Poseidon then used the third item Hephaestus made before they left Greece, wings made from metals. He didn't test it before, but now it was the right time.

Before launching Poseidon in the direction of his house, Kratos said, '' Please, protect my wife.''

While it was one of the Greek Gods that died, all members of the house could still be in danger.

''Don't worry. I'll protect everyone. Whoever did that will pay 1000x.'' Poseidon was fuming with anger. ' This wasn't supposed to happen!'

Kratos nodded. He then grabbed Poseidon, used Spartan Rage, and threw Poseidon in the direction of his house, '' ARGHHHHHHHH!''

Poseidon flew extremely fast, arriving just 30 seconds later. He covered an hour's trip within seconds. Of course, he had to use the wings, but he wasn't that good with it.

Poseidon crashed-landing near the house. He saw Baldurand, surprisingly, Odin, fighting against the member of the house.

Mind you, Poseidon and Kratos felt someone die, but they didn't know who. The Gods in Greece were in the same situation.

When Poseidon saw who died, his anger just got up.

Odin and Baldur stopped fighting with the Greeks and looked at Poseidon, who directed his killing intent to them. '' Who did this?''

If it was Baldur that did the killing blow, Poseidon wasn't sure if he could forgive him.

Odin smugly said, '' And who are you supposed to be? Well, it doesn't really matter. Regarding your question, it was me who kill-''

Poseidon didn't wait for Odin to stop speaking and punched him in the face, making the All-Father fly far away, '' You're dead!''

Before going after Odin, Poseidon said to the Gods who remained, '' Don't kill him. I need him alive.''

He then flew towards Odin's location.
