Even though he had been docile so far, the guardian still warned him, saying, "This egg is worth a super world in your Sea of Worlds. That's just the minimum value. So don't damage the egg, or you will pay a terrible price."
That last sentence was spoken in a warning tone. Clearly, even though the guardian was being carefree with him, some things were still taboo.
Loki nodded and said, "I understand. I'll treat it with care."
Inwardly, he thought, 'I didn't need that warning to know not to destroy it. There is no way I'll try to damage something that guardian offered me.'
As he was thinking, he stretched his hand and placed it on the egg. The guardian watched him do this with an amused expression on their face, waiting to see his response when the egg started draining him of his essence and divinity.
