1 Asgardian Year = 50 Earth Years
I was cut off from my gamer powers for the first 6 Asgardian years of my life. The very first thing I did when I gained them was say "Status"
STATUS:
Mani Odinson
Crown Prince of Asgard
Title: None
Level 1
Xp 0/1000
HP: 250/250
MP 400/400
Conditions: None
Str: 20
Dex: 20
Con: 25
Int: 40
Wis: 10
Cha: 15
This simple floating screen in front of me told me a lot of things. Ok it actually tells me a lot of things I need to know the context of. Like how much 20 Str actually is. Is that average lifter, or throwing buildings level or what. I could really use a HELP screen...
HELP:
1 Str = 40 Pounds
Average Str = 5
1 Dex = 6 MpH
Average Dex = 5
1 Con = 10 HP
Average Con = 5
1 Int = 10 MP
Average Int = 5
1 Wis = 1 Mp per Minute
Average Wis = 5
1 Cha = 1 Hp per Minute
Average Cha = 5
Thank you game, I thought, so Asgardians are seriously op, I mean, it might be because I am the firstborn, but as a 6 year old I am 4 times stronger, faster, and 8 times more intelligent than a human adult. So that was nice, but that left me just a few more questions which I knew for a fact that the game couldn't answer. As I had noticed a pattern, the game can only give me information about myself and the game itself. It couldn't do anything to tell about the real world. So I went to confront my father, Odin
As I walked through the palace for the first time with my full mind, I realized just how much less impressive it was than the movies. Instead of being made of gold, it was simply made a wood, the grand murals, were simple paintings. Odin had no Gungnir, just a normal spear. I nearly slapped myself, of course they are less advanced, I was born before he conquered the realms with Hela. So he had no gold. Heck, I don't even think they have the Bifrost yet. But I knelt before him regardless and said "Hello my father. I have come here to inquire of whether I could join the legions of the Einharjar?" This was the best way to learn combat, I knew Asgardians had inborn combat abilities, but I didn't want to let my thousand years of time before anything big happened go to waste. Odin seemed hesitant as he said "Mani, why do you wish to join our fighting force, you are the crown prince, you are not mean't for battle, you are mean't for rule." I was fairly annoyed, didn't he know about the dangers of this universe? I knew he wasn't going to be reasoned with so directly. So I tried a different approach "If you won't let me join them, at least let me train with them, I understand that you don't want me fighting battles, but it will happen eventually. So let me start training early." I pleaded, hoping he would listen "Fine, you will begin tomorrow, but know that your training shall be harsh, to prepare you for the hardships ahead."

My first quest, I thought excitedly. Yes this version of the gamer does have quests, wait a second, I have no clue what my attacks are or anything, I don't even know my skills. Maybe I should have have looked at those first. Oh yeah "I accept." I said to Odin, as I said that, the menu disappeared and time unpaused, I hadn't even realized it was paused in the first place.
So I went to the training ground, which was empty at the time and said "Skills"

Well those seem like some good abilities, lets try this one. I said "Moonbeam" And a ball of grey light collected in my hand, i pointed my hand at a target dummies chest, it fired a laser and blew a hole straight through it. Funny thing was, the dummy wasn't burned our damaged around the edges, the part that got hit just disintegrated. I grinned, and practiced all night long, firing Moonbeams, teleporting around. I couldn't try out dream but when it became morning I tried out Lunar Construct and created a spear, it took 50 MP I threw and it pierced the dummy before shattering, tried it again with a sword around the same weight, cost 50 MP as well I sliced the dummies head off and the sword once again shattered. I teleported back to my room just in time for Odin to knock on the door. "Mani, it is time for your test." I walked through the door and said "I am ready, Father." He took me down to the arena and shouted "This is Mani Odinson, firstborn of Odin, Crown Prince of Asgard, who will test his worth!" Many hands went up but one person jumped out of the stands and landed in the arena. He was almost 7 feet tall, and was wearing full battle armor. He shouted "I am Atoba, Captain of the 1th order of the Einharjar, I will test your worth Mani!"
Me, being the mischeivous person I am, teleport right behind him, conjure a blade of moonlight, and put it to his throat. "Would you like to repeat that, Atoba?" He turned, and said, "I am impressed by your abilities boy, but our fight has not begun." Odin, as if to contradict his statement, yelled "BEGIN." I immediatly teleported out of the way of a swing from a bone white double bladed axe, that seemed to appear out of nowhere. Despite not having a weapon myself, I charged him, summoning a spear 270/400 MP as I did so. He jumped into the air and brought the axe down on the ground shaking the entire arena, and throwing me off balance. He than swung his axe horizontally, trying to cleave me in two. I returned the favor by sweeping the spear under his legs, tripping him, but also shattering the spear. I summoned a sword this time, reinforcing it 70/400 MP. I was about to bring it down on him, but his axe flew towards his hand like it was possessed and he managed to block the strike, quickly getting on his feet. I teleported away 60/400 MP and yelled "Moonbeam!" 10/400 And a blast of light shot towards him and impacted, sending him crashing against the north wall. Even after that he was still getting up, so I teleported using the last of my mana, and brought the blade down on his head. Defeating him, and causing him to turn to dust.
