You made a very good point about Freyr’s scene of “holding back” Ragnarok. He used Ingrid, aka his magic sword, to stall the explosion through indirect means rather than having a direct lifting contest. It wouldn’t make sense for it to be a lifting feat (or AP feat) if the Freyr can somehow do that shit while having a literal conversation with Freya with one hand. Ingrid clearly never actually touches Ragnarok’s blade and is using some mumbo jumbo to contain the strike for a few moments rather forcing it upwards. Even if you somehow assume he was actually lifting the thing with his magic. It’s his magic (or the sword’s), not his actual direct hand lifting strength which would what Kratos needs to do to hold back Ragnarok’s sword.
