After Odin took his spear, he sat thinking carefully about the most suitable place where he could control his power and master it.
After a moment of thought, he looked at the highest mountain on the island and decided that it was the best place to control his power.
He set off toward it cautiously, but he was not very worried, for he foresaw and saw that there were not many creatures on the island or on the path he was taking that could challenge his strength after absorbing the energy of the sky.
He continued on his way but did not abandon his caution, for caution was still present in his heart. He knew that overconfidence is a deadly weakness for anyone.
He walked toward the mountain and encountered a few predatory beings on his way, but he did not even need to use the energy of the sky. He used only his spear to eliminate them with great ease, then continued his path toward the mountain.
After a while, he finally reached the mountain, raised his gaze to its peak, thought for a bit, and then ordered his raven not to ascend with him to the top of the mountain, for that would be dangerous for it.
After ordering his raven, he began climbing the mountain. During his ascent, he encountered many flying creatures, but he scared them off after launching some bolts of lightning at them.
Finally, after some time, he reached the top of the mountain and decided to rest a little before starting his training.
During his rest, he looked toward the sea and sensed something, then thought to himself that Poseidon was following his own path.
Then he looked to the west and saw Athena fighting Griffin, he was a little surprised, then he laughed after sensing the power around her, and he said to himself that she was the first among his siblings to find the energy that resonates with her soul.
Then he looked toward Hades and saw that he was following his own path as well. He tried to sense any energy connected to him, focused all his predictive and spiritual power to discover the source of that energy, but to no avail; he was greatly astonished at his inability to locate its source.
He said: "I knew he was capable of becoming great, but I did not expect him to surpass the limits of my foresight."
After thinking, he laughed loudly, filled with enthusiasm and a hint of madness, and said: "So, Hades, I will wait until we meet again, and we will see if you can surpass me or not!"
After that, he decided to stop watching his siblings and let them follow their paths without eavesdropping on them.
He thought it would be enjoyable to see for himself how strong they would become after awakening, and how they would master controlling it, without intervening or watching them from afar.
After resting, he stood again to begin his own path, focusing all his attention on complete mastery of his power and refining his skills, ready to explore the limits of his abilities.
He looked at the sky and raised his hands; his eyes flared with whiteness, and he summoned the power of the sky with all his focus. Dark clouds quickly gathered above him, and lightning began to strike from the sky with intense brilliance, illuminating the place with shimmering colors, while strong winds blew around him from all sides, creating an atmosphere full of grandeur and power.
The lightning struck, and Odin caught it by raising his hands, but it did not harm him; rather, it remained on his hands as if fully under his control, guided by his will and absolute command.
Odin held the lightning as he wished, then released it from his hands across the mountain, observing its power as it struck the rocks violently. Then he looked at the destruction his lightning had caused, and the sparks scattering in all directions.
After confirming the power of his lightning, he decided to test the power of the wind. He summoned it to embrace him and lift him off the ground, and he succeeded partially, but his control over it was weak, as sometimes the wind dragged him violently and he almost fell more than once, which prompted him to focus intensely and try to fully control that stormy force.
And after he succeeded in descending from the sky, he thought that he should train more on the skill of flying and controlling the wind in order to be able to fully master it.
After thinking about that, he looked at the sky again and raised his hands once more toward the sky, aiming them at a rock far from him. The lightning shot from the clouds and struck the rock violently, but hesitantly and with obvious difficulty. Odin contemplated what happened and thought with concern: if the target moves, controlling the lightning will not be so easy, and directing it will be an extremely difficult challenge requiring greater focus and skill.
He decided to continue his training on controlling the power of the sky, after having identified his initial weaknesses, and continued training for the rest of the day.
After the training exhausted him, he looked at the sky above the clouds and realized that it was already evening. He decided to rest and continue his training tomorrow, found a place to spend the night, and did not care about food.
He did not have a real need for food, for the energy flowing through his body was enough to restore his strength and satisfy his feeling of hunger. He ate food only for the pleasure of the experience, not because he needed it to stay alive. Likewise, he did not need sleep, except that sleep was the fastest and most effective way to fully restore his energy after a long day of strenuous training. So he did not hesitate and closed his eyes quickly to sink into a deep and comfortable sleep.
Several months passed in the same way, after he realized that he had reached the peak of his strength and had been training alone.
He decided to find creatures to train on, so he closed his eyes and controlled the raven below the mountain to fly. He controlled the raven and saw exactly everything it saw.
During his careful search around the mountain, he discovered a tremendously huge snake, larger than any creature he had ever seen before, with a head capable of swallowing horses easily. Its movements were slow, but it was extremely strong.
When Odin saw the snake, he thought to himself that it was the best creature to test his power on. He ordered the raven to observe it closely without disappearing from its sight, and to keep watching it from a safe distance.
He quickly descended from the mountain to see the result of his training. He jumped from above, and the wind carried him swiftly down to the bottom of the mountain toward the snake.
As he was descending from the mountain, he thought to himself how difficult his ascent had been without the power of the sky, relying only on his physical strength.
But he quickly exited that thought, for he was approaching the location of the snake.
He grabbed his spear, hanging on his back, thought for a moment, then infused it with his power until it was filled with lightning and glowed with a strong light. Then he threw the spear with immense force toward the snake.
When he threw the spear, the winds responded to his power and propelled it at tremendous speed toward the snake, weaving between the trees and avoiding rocks as if it had special eyes guiding it. It pierced the air with a deafening force, then struck the snake directly.
The snake, which had already finished its meal and was on its way back to its lair, did not expect what happened. Suddenly, the lightning-filled spear emerged from a sudden place, carried by the wind with great force, and pierced the middle of its forehead with deadly accuracy. The spear exited the other side of its head, ending its life instantly without any resistance.
When Odin saw that, he smiled and felt at the same time a sense of regret. He admired its strength and what it had reached, but he did not get the chance to fight the snake or test and improve his power through a real battle.
He sighed and flew toward the location of the spear that had pierced the snake's head. When he arrived, he saw that the spear had destroyed several trees and rocks along its path before stopping, but the spear itself could not withstand that immense power, its shape had changed significantly, showing signs of cracking and bending.
When he saw the spear in that state, Odin said: "Not just any weapon can endure my power."
He thought for a moment, then decided to leave the spear and find another creature to continue his training on.
Years passed, and Odin continued testing his power and refining his control over it. And his effort bore fruit; his control over the power of the sky improved greatly, until he could manipulate it smoothly and precisely, as if it were an extension of his arms, as if he had a third arm moving at his will.
Also, his predictive and spiritual power became stronger over time and continuous training, and he discovered many new uses for it, which increased his skill and ability to face any challenge or creature with complete confidence.
And when Odin woke from sleep and prepared to find a creature to train on as usual, a message came from his soul urging him to go immediately to the middle of the island.
As soon as Odin felt that, he stopped searching for a creature and quickly controlled the wind energy to descend from the mountain rapidly.
During his descent, he was thinking about his siblings and his father, and whether anyone among his siblings had come close to surpassing him or not. But he smiled and did not care much, for he was confident in the power he had reached after many long years of training.
