By the age of seven, Alexander Ashborn Odinson had accumulated… far too much.
Not in strength—
But in potential.
Quiet Sign-Ins
Every night, without fail—
Sign in.
The system never failed him.
Over the years, his rewards quietly stacked:
Magic Skills Fire Magic Water Magic Ice Magic Illusion Dark Magic Ryūjin Jakka Techniques Flame Release Control Heat Compression Non-Manifestation Fire (suppressed flames) Materials Uru Metal Genshin Impact Ores Rare Minerals Wealth Gold Asgardian Currency Diamonds
All of it stored neatly.
All of it untouched.
Raphael, Lord of Wisdom:
Master's restraint exceeds statistical expectations.
Alexander agreed.
No need to rush.
The Birth of a Menace Duo
If Alexander was restrained with power—
He was absolutely not restrained with pranks.
That was Loki's fault.
Or rather—
Loki was his partner in crime.
Prank #1: The Hammer Incident
Thor stormed into the training yard.
"LOKI!" he roared.
His hammer—Mjölnir—was stuck halfway into the ground.
Not embedded.
Glued.
Alexander sat nearby, pretending to read.
Loki leaned casually against a pillar.
Thor strained.
Grunted.
Pulled harder.
Nothing.
Then—
POP.
Thor fell backward as Mjölnir came free—
covered in harmless illusionary slime.
Loki collapsed laughing.
Alexander lost it.
They laughed so hard Alexander nearly fell over.
Prank #2: The Armor Echo
Thor put on his armor.
Every step he took—
"CLANG!"
Louder than before.
Echoing like thunder.
Thor froze.
"…Why do I sound louder?"
Alexander snapped his fingers.
The illusion amplified only Thor's movements.
Every step boomed through the halls.
Thor lasted exactly ten seconds before chasing them.
They escaped.
Barely.
Prank #3: The Feast Disaster
At a royal feast—
Thor proudly lifted a cup of mead.
Only for it to turn into sparkling water mid-sip.
Thor sputtered.
The entire hall went silent.
Loki smiled innocently.
Alexander hid his face, shoulders shaking.
Frigga sighed—
But her eyes were amused.
Odin pretended not to notice.
Laughing Like Maniacs
Later, hidden behind a statue—
Alexander and Loki laughed until it hurt.
"I thought he'd notice sooner!" Alexander gasped.
Loki wiped tears from his eyes.
"He never does!"
They laughed again—loud, unrestrained, ridiculous.
For once—
No prophecy.
No destiny.
No cosmic weight.
Just brothers being brothers.
Thor's Retaliation
Thor eventually found them.
Arms crossed.
Eyes narrowed.
"You two," he said slowly, "are dead."
Alexander blinked.
"…Probably."
Loki nodded. "Worth it."
Thor chased them through the palace.
And Asgard echoed with laughter.
A Quiet Ending
That night, Alexander lay in bed.
Power slept within him.
Flames restrained.
Water calm.
Sins dormant.
And somewhere deep inside—
Ryūjin Jakka acknowledged him.
Not yet.
But soon.
