Despite initial intimidation, Geirrodur was not treated poorly and received the respect that a leading king of a race should receive.
For Modi, today's negotiation is very important, after all, this is just the first step towards the pacification of the 9 kingdoms.
"Geirrodur, you brought an army to the border of Asgard, what are your intentions!!" Modi
"for the usual reasons, resources" Geirrodur
Odin was quiet and watched, he let Modi question Geirrodur
"living underground is difficult, although trolls manage to adapt to the environment still lack food resources, cannibal tribes started to gain power due to food crisis, invade and then threaten asgard in exchange for resources, a simple idea" Geirrodur
Geirrodur has not hidden anything, he has already been defeated and has already accepted his fate, now his only goal is to take the blame from his people and put it on his back and when he is executed by Odin at least his people won not be punished too much
"if you had a lack of food, why didn't you trade with Asgard? their lands have minerals and technically you are rich" Modi
when Modi said that, everyone in the throne room started to think, really the realm of trolls is underground and that's why there are many mines of variable metals, so why are trolls poor?
"trade? we trolls?" Geirrodur
'trader troll? the young prince must be confused, soon he will ask where are the ice giants poets' that was the thought of the generals around
Geirrodur didn't know what to say, in fact it would be easier to just buy food, so why did he start a war?
the troll king's face turned red with embarrassment
Modi almost laughed, he didn't expect this fat troll to be embarrassed
"we changed the subject, now you can't go back in time and the troll kingdom violated the borders and started a war, we had no casualties among our soldiers but as a loser you must accept the terms of surrender" Modi
Modi had spoken to Odin before, creating a contract between nations was something Modi had wanted for some time.
Asgard dominates the 9 realms, it's nice to say that but in practice it's a lie, 3 of these realms are declared enemies and the other 5 are basically neutral who don't take orders from asgard and do what they want, maybe only Vanaheim is an ally due to existence of Frigga
Modi wants to strengthen Asgard so it doesn't get destroyed in some kind of stupid event like ragnarok
"Grandpa, I have prepared a surrender contract for the troll realms, please review" Modi, he handed a paper to Odin
Odin had read it before but pretended to read it again
the contract is simple, the first clause is that the troll kingdom must pay some money as compensation, but there is no monetary system in the troll kingdom so it must be paid with metals, this one is easy to solve
The second clause is heavier, troll army must be limited to 2 thousand and can only be expanded with Asgard's permission.
the third clause is Modi's favorite, the king of trolls must send 1000 strong trolls every 100 years to Asgard, these trolls will be turned into the platoon of the international army of Asgard
the international army is the way that Modi found to strengthen Asgard, there are few Asgardians so just take soldiers from the other 9 realms and train them, in the future maybe Modi can even send back these soldiers to reach high positions in their realms and talk by Asgard
Odin approved the plan
"my grandson did well, i support your solution moreover, Geirrodur after you sign the contract I will allow trade between our people and trolls food shortage can be alleviated" Odin
Geirrodur got the contract, he saw the terms but didn't think they were bad
Geirrodur will continue as king and trolls will remain free, although 1000 trolls must be sent to asgard, this is easy to solve
"I accept the terms" Geirrodur
in this way, the project of the international army
-----------------------
Geirrodur was taken to another place, a feast began to be prepared, in the throne room only Modi and Odin remained.
"my grandson, the troll realm is close to Asgard, but other realms need to use the Bifrost bridge, can your plan really be carried out?" Odin
"honestly grandpa, I don't know, other kingdoms and peoples have a long history, although they superficially respect Asgard, none of them would really help us in a crisis" Modi
Modi seemed to hesitate, but finally said something
"Grandpa, about the tenth kingdom... I think this needs to be resolved" Modi
the tenth realm, Heven, home of the angels, this entire realm was sealed by Odin and since then they have been isolated from the 9 worlds
".....I know, but the moment I remove the seal a war will start with the angels" Odin
Once the queen of angels invaded Asgard and kidnapped a daughter of Odin and in the end killed her, Odin in fury sealed the whole world of angels for millennia, the hatred between peoples is not less than the hatred of the frost giants for asgard
Modi wants to solve this kind of problem, with Odin alive there is no difficulty but after the death of his grandfather, not only will a death goddess aunt appear but there is still another aunt in the world of angels wanting revenge
So it's better to take advantage of the fact that Odin is alive and well and finish the matter.
As for Hella, Modi didn't say anything to his grandfather, he doesn't know if Odin left Hella alive out of paternal love or because he couldn't kill Hella.
How can a goddess who controls the deity of death die? it would be like Modi getting wet and sick if it rains
