Chapter 103 Sylvie, the Second Generation Symbiote
Chapter 103 Sylvie, the Second Generation Symbiote
In the only council hall of the royal palace, Toby sat on the throne at the head of the table, listening to the reports from the tribal elders below.
"Your Majesty, as you requested a month ago, we have already implemented reforms in various aspects of our peoples, including their social hierarchy, housing, clothing, and food."
"In terms of hierarchy, as per your request, we have abolished the survival of the fittest principle and instead allow our people to develop in multiple ways based on their own circumstances, no longer advocating a single path of warriors."
"Regarding housing, as per your request, our various tribes have used Frost God Ice to build independent houses for each member of the tribe, so that they no longer live in caves, and have taught them how to build houses using their own abilities."
"Regarding clothing, as per your request, we also distributed different types of clothing for men and women to each member of the tribe, and taught them about clothing making."
"Regarding food, because of the characteristics of our tribe, we prefer cold to hot, so as per your request, we have taught our tribe more methods for making cold dishes that are more aesthetically pleasing and have a richer and more delicious flavor."
........
After listening to the reports from the elders below, Toby closed his eyes, propped his head up with his hand, and did not say anything.
Behind Toby, a woman who, while also possessing the distinctive blue skin of the Frost Giant race, was only a little over 1.7 meters tall and whose appearance was more in line with human aesthetics, spoke with a cold expression:
"The King understands and is satisfied with your efficiency. Now, let's begin the second phase of reform: knowledge reform!"
"From today onward, establish a public school in each of your races, where the children of the Frost Giant race will be taught cultural knowledge, theoretical knowledge, and combat skills."
"Those with outstanding academic performance may be sent to the Royal Academy for further study and instruction, so that they may become the future pillars of our Frost Giant race!"
"Meeting adjourned. All of you may leave!"
The elders of the various tribes below glanced at the short woman who looked like a dwarf in their eyes, their eyes showing a hint of dissatisfaction. However, when they saw Toby sitting on the throne in front of the woman, their dissatisfaction instantly turned into deep fear.
When they saw Toby, they remembered the last meeting, where an elder had his entire family hanged from a tree in the southeast because he was unhappy that this woman spoke up for the king.
So, to avoid being hung on the ice tree, the tribal elders bowed their heads respectfully and said, "Yes, Your Majesty..."
After all the elders below had left, Toby opened his eyes, glanced at the woman behind him, and smiled: "Sylvie, you did a great job. Now I can rest assured that I can hand this place over to you to manage."
Upon hearing this, the woman called Sylvie clenched her fists tightly, lowered her eyes, and gritted her teeth, saying, "So you're leaving?"
"Um?!"
The next second, Sylvie, dressed in a long blue gauze dress, felt her waist tighten, her vision blurred, and when she looked again, she was already sitting on her king's lap, leaning against his arms.
Toby reached out his index finger and hooked Sylvie's chin under his arms, making her stubborn little eyes meet his. He chuckled and said, "What's wrong? You can't bear to part with me?"
"Just a month ago, didn't you want to kill me to avenge your father?"
Sylvie's full name is Sylvie Raufeldottir, and the surname Raufeldottir means "daughter of Laufey, the Frost Giant King"!
So Sylvie is Laufey's daughter!
Sivir rested her chin on Toby's shoulder, wrapped her arms around his waist, and nestled against him, saying coldly:
"No, I never thought about avenging the guy who abandoned me. I just hated myself for not killing him with my own hands, so that day I thought of killing you instead..."
Toby, who already knew this, simply smiled and did not reply.
It turns out that Loki wasn't the only child abandoned by Laufey; Sylvie was one of them too.
And just like Loki, he was abandoned because he was born weak, so Laufey, who had a strong survival-of-the-fittest mentality, ruthlessly abandoned him.
However, Sylvie was not as lucky as Loki. Loki was picked up by Odin, the king of the gods, who happened to be on a campaign, right after being abandoned, and was taken back to be raised as a prince.
After Sylvie was abandoned, she would have died on the icy plains long ago if her mother hadn't taken pity on her and secretly run away to take her in, raising her alone...
However, Sylvie's mother died from overwork when Sylvie was just able to survive on her own.
Therefore, over the years, Sylvie has been thinking about revenge against Laufey at all times, and thus she would often linger outside Laufey's palace (the canyon) looking for an opportunity to take revenge.
But before Sylvie could get her revenge, she was greeted by Toby's return with the Frost Giants and learned of Laufey's death.
Killing Laufey was her only reason to live, but it crumbled instantly at that moment.
Therefore, Sylvie, disregarding everything, grabbed a short ice blade that she intended to use to kill Laufey and charged towards Toby.
Then......
Then there is no more.
Given Sylvie's strength, which is considered one of the weakest among the Frost Giants, how could she possibly succeed in her attack?
Toby casually grabbed the woman's face and lifted her up.
But just as Toby was about to devour the woman, an unexpected event occurred: his symbiote gave birth to offspring!
I wonder if it's because Toby has absorbed too much high-level life energy lately...
It absorbed Thor's bloodline, and also Laufey, the Frost Giant King, and so on...
This caused him to overeat. The moment he let the rioters come out to eat, they vomited before they even opened their mouths to eat!
A mouthful of icy blue, viscous symbiote was spat onto Sylvie's face and instantly merged into her body!
This made Sylvie the first second-generation symbiote host, and a perfect one at that!
Because the new symbiote's special ability is ice control, which perfectly matches the attributes of the Frost Giant!
It all seems like...it was all preordained?
So in the end, Toby looked at Sivir in his hands, with the same stubborn yet resigned look in her eyes, and changed his mind.
He needs the Frost Giants, just as he needs Puck Industries.
But given his personality, it's impossible for him to do management work for an extended period.
Therefore, just like Natasha of Puck Industries, he needs to find a proxy to manage the Frost Giants on his behalf.
And this agent is Sylvie, who inherited Laufey's bloodline and the symbiote born from him!
As for how to persuade Sylvie to work for him, it's actually quite simple: just persuade and seduce her.
Given Sylvie's long-standing dissatisfaction with the Frost Giants' cruel survival-of-the-fittest law, Toby quickly persuaded Sylvie to join him in his radical reform of the Frost Giants.
As for sleeping clothes, that's even simpler. The Frost Giants generally prefer tall and strong women like Nezha. Women like Sylvie, who are only a little over 1.7 meters tall and slender, no matter how beautiful they are, will not be liked by male Frost Giants.
