The Rise Of A Porter

Chapter 512 - Thor's Rage (2)

"Where is that witch? Why isn't my water her yet?" The Asgardian started to mumble as several minutes passed, "Tsk, guarding someone like Thor Odinson is already nerve-racking and now this blatant show of disrespect... I should ask the sergeant to do something about it. No matter who it is, they should respect the hard-working soldiers."

The soldier did not know who the person actually was Loki in the form of a beautiful maiden. Either way, the soldier had been on duty for more than a couple of days now, guarding the sanatorium, he expected his needs to be taken care of immediately. 

While he was bitching about his over proportionate needs, the soldier in the golden armour saw another healer, making her way towards the Sanatorium. It almost felt like Deja vu because the healer had the exact same face as the one he had just sent away to fetch him some water. 

"You! Where is my water?" The soldier asked the lady.

"What water, soldier?" The blonde healer got all startled upon the soldier's scream.

"Don't play games with me- Oh Fenrir's rotten arse!!!" The soldier exclaimed as soon as he realised what had happened, "You healer, go and alert everyone else that Loki has broken into the Sanatorium. Go now!!!"

Saying so the soldier rushed towards the chamber where Thor was being kept. Upon seeing the woman again, the soldier realised that someone must have disguised themselves to appear like the healer and walked inside the sanatorium to awaken Thor.

The only one, in the soldier's opinion, who would have done something like this was Loki. As no one else in the pantheon was as capable of shapeshifting as he was, nor was anyone else as big of a fool to do something that the All-father had strictly prohibited. 

Even the queen herself did not bother to argue with the All-father to let her meet her son and help him grieve the loss of the woman he loved. Thus leaving Loki to be the only one who would dare disobey the All-father.

The soldier unsheathed his sword as he rushed inside the Sanatorium, completely prepared to fight a losing battle against the god of mischieve. By the time he arrived there, he saw everyone else was fine and doing their job. Nothing was out of the ordinary there.

"Fruna, what are you doing here?"

One of the other soldiers asked the soldier from before who was heaving as if he had never breathed properly before. But Fruna was too shocked to say anything at that moment. 

'How is everyone fine... I swear I saw that healer walk in before. Oh no! What have I done!?' 

Without saying a word, the soldier got up turned around to see his worst fears come true. He had unintentionally led the lion right into the deer's hideout. The sanatorium was a huge building. People often got lost in there if they did not know exactly where they were headed. 

On top of that, the chamber Thor was being kept in had been enchanted to move locations on its own every 10 minutes and this location was only known to the soldiers who were stationed to protect Thor through telepathy. 

This was done as a precautionary measure to keep Thor out of Loki's hands in case he managed to break out of prison. However, in his haste and worry, Fruna forgot about the security measures and led Loki directly to where Thor was.

The healer was behind Fruna every second of the way. Concealed using dark magic which the soldier could not trace in his panicked state. Suddenly the noise of slow clapping shrouded the room as the soldiers took their weapons out. 

"Your brain works just fine... the only issue is, that it works late." Loki smiled as he turned back to his original form, "That sly father of mine certainly pulled all the stops to hide my brother from me, didn't he? I mean I kept looking around and couldn't find a clue where Thor was."

"But thanks to him trusting you fools, it made my job easier than it would have been. For that, I would like to thank you sir... by slicing your head off your shoulders."

"Contact the All-father and lord Vale! Only they can stop him. In the meantime, the rest of us will try to hold this bastard off." The so-called sergeant yelled at one of his soldiers as he along with the others rushed to confront Loki. 

However, Loki wasn't someone any of them could have stopped. In a blink of an eye, all of them were either dead or left crippled enough that they could not do anything to stop him anymore. As for the one who was supposed to contact the All-father and Vale... well, he rushed inside the chamber and locked herself inside along with a sleeping Thor. 

Still, after seeing her comrades being torn to pieces just like that, turned her mind into a mess. As a consequence that, she was unable to contact any of the gods using telepathy.

"Knock knock?" Loki's voice echoed outside the room and the next moment the door was thrown open, "Did you seriously expect this door to stop me? Come one, the last time I was here, the soldiers were a bit more reasonable and intelligent than now. Tsk, tsk, tsk, what a shame indeed."

The soldier, seeing no other way to defend Thor from falling into Loki's hands, stood up with her dagger in a last-ditch effort to stop the raging god. 

"oh come on... I did not want to kill a beauty like you." Loki sighed as a smile popped upon his face, "But what can I do? After all, I'm a merciful god. If someone wants to die so eagerly, it is my duty to grant them their will."

Out of nowhere, two daggers materialised in his hands and he threw them in the soldier's direction. However, at the last possible moment, the daggers flew away as if a gust of wind knocked them away. 

"Vale... quite hiding!" Loki cursed out loudly.

"Who's hiding?" A voice reverberated throughout the room, "I'm right in front of you."

Vale suddenly appeared in front of Loki and punched him in the face, making him fly out of the room.. He then promptly gave the soldier a curt nod and flew right behind Loki.
