"Welcome to Asgard. I hope you will find our hospitality satisfactory." Frigga said in order to elevate the awkwardness of the room.
"It's an honor to meet you, Queen Frigga." Wayne said
"The honor is mine too." Queen Frigga said as she too could feel the power flowing out from the body of Wayne. Wayne hasn't been able to grasp his new form completely so he was still finding trouble in order to be total stealth like before.
"The coronation will be at night. Please do attend."
This time it was Atreus who said. She too, like others, was beside Frigga.
"Is he Kratos's child?" Diana said.
"Yes. In a sense you are his aunt." John said. Everybody laughed at it thinking suddenly out of nowhere Diana became an aunt.
"Where is he by the way?" John asked.
"He is busy handling the decorations. He wanted to participate in it." Frigga said.
"Wow. That is a huge change in personality." Banner said as they all had played the game and they knew how grumpy that old guy is. After talking for a good half an hour they all went to work. They wanted to participate in the decorations so all wanted to join their hands in this.
Finally night came, and the ceremony started. All the Avengers and the close friends of Thor took up positions near the throne ready to welcome the new King.
As they were all cheering and rejoicing, the main door of the hall opened only to reveal Thor in a classic Asgardian armor. He looked stunning. He started walking towards the throne at a slow pace.
As he came near the throne he stopped and turned back. Everybody was surprised by that because they all expected him to go and sit on the throne. As they were all in confusion of why Thor was not sitting and becoming the King of Asgard, Loki came up while wearing the same attire of an Asgardian.
He too came up near the throne and turned back.
"Why is neither Thor or Loki sitting on the throne? I thought at least Loki will sit on the throne even though we might not have accepted it." Hal said.
"It's because Atreus is going to be the King of Asgard." Strange said.
"Huh. What?" Everybody shouted. It surprised everybody as they didn't expect Atreus to be the new king, and that included John too. When John brought the duo to Asgard, he wanted them just to keep an eye on everything here.
But later out of nowhere, he became a godson. And now he would be appointed as the King of Asgard. As they were in shock, Thor finally spoke up in a loud voice to everybody.
"The last few years have been quite eventful for Asgard. Many things happened. Loki betraying us. We, getting attacked by Dark Elves. Our father's death and us finding out that we have two sisters. And now both sisters are in prison. All these years made me realize that the crown of a King is not meant for me. If I become the King, nothing good will come out of it. And Loki, well he is Loki. So we both decided to make Atreus as the next King of Asgard."
This news caused an uproar in all the people present in the hall. They all really didn't expect Atreus, the godson whom Frigga adopted, would be the new King. As they were all discussing this, Atreus came up to the door, with a proper kingly attire.
The hall fell into silence as he arrived. Atreus felt shy and a little scared as he didn't expect that he would be the King of this new place where he arrived a few years ago. Asgard had given him nothing but love and kindness. He had been treated royally and he couldn't expect anything more.
But being the King of Asgard was totally something else. He would have to maintain the same prosperity during his tenure and he wasn't sure if he was ready for that. As he was thinking this his father finally stepped behind him.
"Go. Be a good King boy. Don't repeat the same mistakes I did. It's your time now. We all will be helping you in this journey of becoming a good king." Kratos said.
"Yes father." Atreus said as he finally stepped into the hall. All broke into cheers as he stepped in, welcoming the new King of Asgard. Though the people would have liked Thor to sit on the throne, but since he denied it, nothing could be said to change it.
In any case, it's not like Thor or Loki were dead. They were alive and well, so even if Atreus sat on the throne, he would still be with the two brothers.
Atreus finally stepped near the throne. He took a deep breath, looking at the huge throne.
"Sit, King Atreus. You are more deserving than any of us." Thor said.

Atreus finally sat on the throne slowly and all cheered & clapped their hands. Everybody was happy that now finally there was a new king of Asgard. Loki handed him the Gangnir.
Atreus took it to his hand. Looked at the weapon and finally hit it on the ground. The hit was loud enough for all to hear and it made all the people silent. Atreus cleared his throat and said
"I know what many of you are thinking. Thinking that I might not be old or experienced enough to take up the position of Asgard. And it's true. Even I myself don't think that I am fit to be the King. Many of us, including me, would prefer elder brother Thor to take up the position, but my elder brother is more busy saving the universe and has his own problems to deal with. If he sits on the throne, saving Asgard or saving the universe wouldn't be possible." All understood this point and nodded their heads. Thor too had a smile when Atreus said that.
"And my other brother Loki. Well he is Loki. Do I need to say more?" All laughed when Atreus said that. His trickery and illusions made him unfit to sit on the throne.
"Hey, why am I being portrayed in such a wrong way? Dammit, I should have not allowed you to sit on the throne." Loki said in a false anger, but it gave it away as he too had a small smile on his face. He wanted to be the king but he decided against it. He wanted to join his brother in saving the universe. He wanted recognition from the universe now, instead of just Asgard.
"But I understand that I am not capable enough for all of this. So I will always be under the guidance of my two elder brothers, my mother Queen Frigga, Heimdall, who had been in service of the kingdom for such a long time. And last but not the least, my father. He is old and grumpy but he has a good heart." All smiled when he described his father.
"I hope to make Asgard more prosperous and grand. May you all help me in this journey." Atreus ended with that speech.
All cheered again as they welcomed the new King. And then the celebration followed. Booze and food were everywhere and they had a sumptuous feast. All gave their gifts to Atreus as the new King.
John gave a Shinx (a pokemon) to Atreus. Even though Shinx would have been more useful for Thor as it was an electric type Pokemon, it would be helpful to Atreus too. John then described what a Pokemon was and how to nurture it. He was excited to get such a powerful friend.
They all had a jolly time in the celebration. And it didn't end until late at night. Joh also came to know Thor and Jane had broken up and surprisingly here the story had followed like in the original. Even though he didn't know the reason, he didn't want to ask.
The next day all woke up late. But all got ready fast, because today was the day Thor and Wayne would fight each other. And all the Avengers ran to the arena to see the fight.
Wayne and Thor were already in the arena and Strange was the referee because among the three only Strange was strong enough to control the damage that would be done by the two of them.
All took their seats in the arena, many Asgardians were also present as they heard that Thor would be fighting someone who would be almost equal to his power. Both of them stood opposite to each other in the arena while Strange was in the middle separating them with his long staff.
"No elemental power would be allowed. Thor can't use his lightning powers, nor can Wayne use his heat vision." They both nodded at it as using that would be catastrophic to the surroundings.
"I wouldn't go easy on you." Thor said.
"I don't want you to." Wayne replied.
"Ready!! Fight." Strange said. And the next moment both Thor and Wayne flew to each other stopping the other side with bare hands. Both of their impacts were so huge that there was a shock wave that produced. Strange had to use magic to stop the shockwave from destroying the surroundings.
"Damn. They are no longer humans." Banner said.
"Still think you are the only freak in the world Banner?" John said. Banner shook his head. He even wondered if Hulk was now strong enough to face either of them.
"I need to up my armor game." Tony murmured. His friend just became a half god. He needed to make the Anti-metal armor soon. He had some ideas about that metal and he wanted to see if it was possible with that armor.
All got serious looking at the fight, all rejoiced in their minds as the more powerful the team became, the more the chances to defeat Black Winter.
