( Thunder Nation Council )

" The Earthen Elites have captured 126 and have destroyed 2, they have neutralised the entire northern legion and their leader Shakuni ha-has slain commander Mavi ". A councilman read a report as loud gasps and shocks could be heard throughout the council

There was anger in Thor's mind, a strong desire for revenge, however, there was more shock.

Mavi was like a brother to Thor, the two had been together for centuries and Thor knew Mavi's temperament well.

Mavi was not a man who could be baited into a fight against a stronger opponent or someone without the means to retreat. For him to fall in battle meant that he was utterly outclassed by his opponent. An outcome that was hard to digest for Thor.

" War! "

" War! We must fight back, this transgression cannot be left unpunished ".

" We must kill Shakuni of the Elites, he must die or else the universe will see us as weaklings".

" SILENCE! " Thor demanded silence from his murmuring councilmen as he looked at the scout and asked " Can we take the 126 planets back? "

The scout hung his head in shame at this question as he said " Without killing the locals, It is not possible.

The elites will retreat, but they won't leave the planets intact, they are like dark faction scum.

The planet I was stationed at, they used civilian lives as a bargain chip to make the military forces surrender

They are very ruthless and have no shame in using the lives of locals as their bargain chip ".

The scouts comments made many council members wince at being called a scum, but they managed to maintain their facade and did not react to the insult.

Thor's thunder nation had long been infiltrated by dark faction loyalists from head to toe and many in his own council were such dark faction loyalists, which was the precise reason why Augustus had ordered Shakuni to carry out this strike on the Thunder Nation.

If Thor wanted, he did have the capability of taking back the 126 planets from Shakuni and he did not really care about the local life if not for a special reason.

These planets worshipped Thor as their patron god and contributed to his divine essence everyday. Should they be harmed while Thor took back his planets, it would result in him losing a lot of his divine essence, an outcome he was unwilling to accept.

" Shakuni's homeplanet, the small blue watery planet, Can we take it as retaliation? " Thor asked the scout who shook his head in shame once again

"I'm sorry sir, as we speak, Patricia Won Knight has sent a large portion of the Won Knight forces including their tier 7 general to oversee the transfer of Earthlings from 'Earth' to the Won Knight home planet, 'Radiance'.

Although the transfer will take 3 days to complete, killing the ships would not only be difficult but may result in retaliation by the Won Knight Clan". The scout reported as Thor let out a deep sigh.

He knew immediately that sending forces to heckle Earthlings was going to be difficult and counterproductive, while attacking them once they got on Radiance would be a pipedream.

Thor could not understand shakuni's motives behind this strike, but based on his actions it was clear that he was there to risk it all, having given the job of keeping his race secure to the Won Knights.

" I'm out of ideas here, councilmen, I do not know how to handle this opponent, please speak up if you have any ideas for I am open to suggestions ". Thor said addressing his council

Thor was not like Rudra who could plan everything, from his early days he maintained a council of elders who would guide him, as while Thor's say on a matter was final he would always like to hear many different perspectives before forming his own.

" My lord If I may be bold, I would suggest looking for hired help.

The enemy clearly does not respect the honor and dignity that makes us Light Faction members better than the Dark, so I suggest we do the same.

We fight poison with poison.

We collaborate secretly with the dark faction! " A dark faction supporter in the council suggested as every other dark faction supporter loudly said " AYE " while tapping their feet to show support for the idea.

" SILENCE". Thor said as he raised his hand in seething anger.

" I will assume you spoke those words in ignorance and spare you today, but don't you dare speak those words in front of me or anyone else again.

I am Thor, son of Odin, the monarch of the Thunder Nation.

It will be over my dead grave that any thunder nation citizen has to hire help from the dark faction scum.

Although Shakuni is despicable he is just a despicable god and that's it.

Lucifer? That man is evil.

If giving up the entire Thunder Nation helped me kill Lucifer, I would take that trade in a heartbeat

So don't suggest such nonsense to me again ". Thor said as the dark faction supporters hung their heads down in shame as they felt a stinging pain of disgust in their hearts.

It was hard to play a double role, especially when the god one revered was defamed everyday in the other role.

At this instance a clapping sound could be heard from outside the council hall as it seemed like they were getting closer, as if a clapping man was walking towards the council chamber.

Thor immediately got up from his throne as he summoned mjolnir from his inventory as he looked at the council door with thunderous, murderous eyes.

" You have some nerve coming here, Shakuni The Undefeated, I will give that much to you.

You do have balls.

Balls that will get you killed here today! " Thor said in a raspy voice as Shakuni leisurely walked into his council chambers covered in blood from head to toe with Mavi's beheaded head hanging from his waist belt.

" What a moving speech Thor, I'm impressed " Shakuni said as he smiled a bright smile to Thor as the rest of the room immediately drew weapons and pointed them towards Rudra.
