Chapter 2002: The Hammer - Part 1

"Holy s.h.i.+t, it's Thor's hammer ...I think!" Jin said to himself as he went around to look at the relic. "Is it possible for me to hold it?" He asked the old servant and the latter did not reject his request. After all, he was the new successor to the Moon King.

Jin took a long good glance at the hammer before putting his hand on it. He knew that if this so called Moon King had managed to kill a monster of a celestial named Thor, he was no ordinary Moon King. Yet at the same time, this must be extremely grave news to the Norse Celestials since they not just lost a major G.o.d but a powerhouse at that.

Unless the mythologies did not correspond to the ones Jin knew, they must be extremely angry to this particular world.

Perhaps, they could keep this under wraps for the past 2000 years but it might not have been the case anymore. The loss of such a powerhouse celestial would definitely cause them to move in at a pace where annihilation is inevitable for this planet.

At the same time, Jin also remembered how Thor's hammer would only respond to the one who was righteous, or to put it simply, worthy to wield it. So, when Jin heaved a deep breath in hopes that he did not get electrocuted the second he touched it, he secretly hoped that he was worthy despite all the things he had done.

Yet, when he held onto it, all he could feel was a strong burst of hatred permeating through the hammer as if it was going to bite him whole if he was not careful. This was not some worthy hammer. It was filled with so much bitterness that could not be compared even with any demon's emotions at all.

But because of all the training that Jin had gone through and the fact that his Maqi was still active, he had decided to brave through this hatred and fight against it so that he could understand the meaning, the emotions and perhaps the thoughts of this leftover legendary relic.

"That f.u.c.king b.a.s.t.a.r.d! Just because he can make a brand new relic, he had to throw me here just to escape this place!" The Hammer shouted and suddenly realised that despite being blinded by anger, misery, hatred, and desperation for being stuck in this state for so many years, he finally saw that there was someone holding him.

"WHO IS THIS?" The Hammer boomed and instead of letting go, Jin calmly said his name.

"Jin. Outsider."

"Outsider?" The Hammer calmed down a little or maybe got a little hopeful, something which he had not felt for the past two thousand years. "Does that mean that I can get out of this f.u.c.king place?" It did not care why the person who was able to hold him was able to communicate with him but at this point, he did not care.

"Depends on your definition. If you mean this musky looking room, then yes. But if you mean from this world, then perhaps not now." Jin said with a shrug and it seemed that he really was not 'worthy' as he was not able to lift up the hammer. However, as he was conversing telepathic with the hammer, he did not let go of it.

In the meantime, the old servant was in awe as he never expected someone or anyone, let alone a potential Moon King candidate to be able to hold on to the hammer for this long.

It was somewhat of a test in the eyes of the old servant regardless of the letter. He knew that he had been pa.s.sed down with information that this particular relic had something to do with the Moon King. And no matter which king candidate had descended from the summoning, the old servant would at least allow them to do this relic trial.

That's right. Even without Jin's question and his curiosity leading to this particular hammer, the old servant would still bring him right into this room to test it out. Some of the King candidates had been killed by the hammer's outright hatred and some were scarred by it.

But those who were able to endure the hammer had become a sort of statistic that proved they were capable of leading a longer term compared to the rest of the kings.

And yet, this particular human was not only able to handle the hammer's malice but also seemed to be in conversation with it.

The old servant did not need to be a master of magic to see that Jin was busy talking to the hammer but to be able to last this long with the hatred of the hammer continue permeating throughout the room, the old servant had no choice but to move out of the room and patiently waited outside for the Moon King successor to either come out breathing or long enough that he might had already been dead on the floor.

Still, it was a shocker to see that after multiple times attempting to get a Moon King successor, the old servant thought that the pattern would repeat despite the anomaly that had presented itself. For Jin to be able to open the box was not just a fluke considering how he was now able to hold a conservation with the angelic relic.

"What do you mean by perhaps not now? Are you saying you can get out of this f.u.c.king world?"

"Why? Do you want to go back to your master? From the looks of it, your master doesn't even give a s.h.i.+t about you considering how he is not here for like what? I don't know. 2000 years or something like that?" Jin said and the hammer sighed.

"Yeah, he probably already found a better weapon than me. Last I heard, an infamous Blacksmith was making a brand new hammer and I was just a loan. Starts with M or something. Sigh.

I know it is inappropriate for me to harbour hate and revenge against him since I was basically a loaned weapon but hey, I honestly thought that we had a good relations.h.i.+p or something." The hammer rambled and Jin figured that the hammer's ego probably didn't have anyone to talk to for the longest time ever.

But the hatred and malice that this hammer had was still overflowing which he felt it couldn't be helped as well. "Being stuck in a room for 2000 years despite it being a sentient weapon…" Jin switched off for a while to be with his own thoughts. "Even though it is not a human, I could not help but to empathise with the hammer." Jin suddenly thought of something rather ridiculous.

"Say, I do not blame you for your predicament, but do you want to use this hate to smite the Celestials? I mean technically your powers might had manifested something to be anti-celestial."

"How do you know I am celestial when you are an outsider? Have you had contact with one of us before? I erm mean, my master's kind before?" The hammer suddenly got suspicious.

"You could say I got into the same situation as you. If I am not wrong, you were left here right?"

"Thrown against a giant elemental rock, allowing my previous master to flee."

"Well, Mr Discarded, I was teleported because this group of celestial think that it would be fun to throw me to some virtual reality world, causing my body and soul to separate for quite some time."

"Huh, then how did you get it back? Wait a minute. Now that you mention it, your body do seem to have a familiar smell now that I concentrated sensing you."

"My friends were able to retrieve me. Then my soul got connected back through some heavy carrying support from my comrades…although the said comrades now throw me here for me to survive myself. They said it was for some trial."

"Lol. Then they aren't really your friends then?" The hammer asked, now starting to feel a little empathy not just for Jin but also able to connect with him.

"Nah, this trial was necessary to prepare ourselves against a possible attack from the Celestials. One of my erm…colleagues had their world wiped out due to a whim from Ares."

"Erm…yeah. Such things do happen… They needed it for the annihilation trial. My master did the same when he came here."

"Why though, aren't they strong enough? And I thought they have the only chance to do this trial…if my knowledge is not lacking." Jin asked.

"Nah, the trial can be done many times. You just need to know the loopholes to do so. But power begets power, ya know? From what I know Demons also do this."

"Yea, I had been sent here by a colleague with some demonic background," Jin said and the Hammer laughed followed by him.

"So, what do you propose fellow temporarily discarded?" The Hammer asked.
