Valhalla Saga – Chapter 143

Ada sepuluh bidang.

Erin, yang salah satunya, dihancurkan dan mereka menjadi sembilan.

Asgard, Olympus dan Kuil.

Tiga dari sembilan alam yang tersisa. Muspelheim dan alam yang berdekatan yang bisa dikatakan sebagai markas besar orang-orang yang berharap untuk kehancuran dunia.

Tiga ranah itu berkelahi.

Pertarungan melawan mereka yang berharap kehancuran dunia adalah sama untuk tiga kerajaan.

Lalu, bagaimana dengan enam alam yang tersisa?

Apakah mereka akan sama dengan tiga alam yang ada di depan?

Apakah mereka juga akan bertarung?

Asgard tidak memiliki waktu luang untuk melihat enam alam yang ada di belakangnya.

Mereka tidak dapat mempertahankan kerja sama yang berkelanjutan dan kaku antara Olympus dan Kuil.

Dinding yang ada di antara dunia bukanlah sesuatu yang bisa dilampaui dengan mudah.

Erin hancur di antara sepuluh alam. Itu hancur tercepat dan menghilang.

Dan sekarang ada sembilan bidang yang tersisa.

Dan tepat pada saat ini.

Api kehancuran melonjak sekali lagi. Itu melonjak untuk membakar dunia lain.

&

Raja penyihir Utgard Loki bersandar di dinding yang rusak dan melihat ke arah di mana Valhalla berada.

Sihir waktu beku itu melindungi Valhalla. Itu adalah sihir pemeteraian yang jauh lebih kuat daripada penghalang Besar yang menyebar di Midgard.

Sekitar dua puluh hari yang lalu, beberapa bencana mengguncang Asgard.

Hujan lebat, banjir, infeksi menjengkelkan, dan gempa bumi dahsyat.

Salah satu di antara mereka yang menimbulkan kerusakan paling parah adalah gempa bumi hebat. Efek samping yang mengguncang seluruh Asgard membuat banyak benteng jatuh bahkan sebelum bertarung dengan musuh mereka.

Raja penyihir, yang telah memberikan kerusakan pada inti pohon dunia dan menciptakan gempa bumi besar, mencoba menaklukkan Valhalla dengan tergesa-gesa.

Para prajurit Valhalla melawan mati-matian di atas benteng yang rusak tapi itu sia-sia.

Serigala dunia memimpin dan banyak raksasa mengikutinya. Bahkan raja-raja raksasa, yang menyelamatkan kekuatan mereka dengan bersembunyi di Jotunheim, membantu raja penyihir seolah-olah ini adalah saat yang tepat.

Raja penyihir tersenyum pahit ketika dia memikirkan apa yang terjadi 20 hari yang lalu. Freya tentu saja tidak mudah dihadapi.

Dia, yang dikenal sebagai Dewi Asgard yang paling cantik, dengan cepat mengakui kematian Odin. Dia mengambil semua persiapan yang dia bisa alih-alih menghabiskan waktu dan menyegel Valhalla.

Karena itu, raja penyihir tidak bisa mengambil alih Valhalla. Dia benar-benar menghancurkan benteng di dekat itu dengan isi hatinya, tetapi pertama-tama, hanya prajurit tingkat rendah dan terendah dan prajurit baja di tempat-tempat itu. Dia tidak bisa memberikan kerusakan besar pada kekuatan asli Valhalla.

Freya menyerah pada beberapa benteng yang ada di sekitar Valhalla.

Dia bertindak seperti itu meskipun dia tahu apa yang akan terjadi pada mereka.

Itu adalah keputusan yang kejam dan dingin.

Tapi raja penyihir kagum padanya. Dia mengirim tepuk tangan terhadap keputusannya sebagai raja.

Raja para Dewa Odin akan membuat keputusan yang sama seolah-olah itu bukan hanya untuk meraih kemenangan, tetapi itu berbeda baginya. Dia bisa tahu karena dia telah mengamatinya sebanyak yang dia lakukan untuk Odin. Bahwa dia datang dengan keputusan ini setelah kesedihan yang mendidih.

"Ini bukan yang terbaik."

Freya memilih untuk melindungi pasukan utama Valhalla dan mencegah kejatuhannya. Melihat gambaran besarnya, Anda bisa mengatakan bahwa dia memilih untuk membeli lebih banyak waktu.

Itu memang pilihan terbaik yang dimiliki Freya saat ini, tetapi pilihan yang dia pilih sangat bergantung pada faktor eksternal.

Sekarang raja para Dewa telah meninggal, hanya ada dua hal yang Freya bisa harapkan.

Yang pertama adalah bahwa Thor mengalahkan raksasa yang berada di luar Valhalla dan memecah pengepungan.

Itu tidak masuk akal. Thor jelas kuat. Bahkan raja penyihir ingin menghindari menghadapinya satu per satu.

Tapi perang bukan soal duel antar pejuang.

Pasukan Thor saat ini terisolasi.

Jalan mereka terputus karena gempa bumi besar dan pasukan besar yang dipimpin oleh raja es Frostarti raksasa sedang mengelilingi pasukannya.

Raja raksasa es adalah seseorang dengan sabar kuat. Dia membaca alur perlahan dan menggambar sebuah gambar besar alih-alih mengambil keputusan cepat.

Dia akan menekan Thor dan pasukannya dan menghindari duel. Yang penting adalah mengisolasi pasukannya.

Yang cemas adalah Thor dan pasukannya, bukan Harmarti. Semakin banyak waktu berlalu, yang mendapat lebih banyak kerugian adalah Thor.

Harmarti akan mengulur waktu dan raja penyihir akan mengambil alih Valhalla.

Raja raksasa itu berpengalaman. Orang yang menarik tali di garis depan melawan Asgard dalam perang besar tidak lain adalah dia. Tidak ada yang lebih berpengalaman darinya di Jotunheim dalam membeli waktu.

"Pasukan Thor tidak akan bisa menyelamatkanmu."

Salah satu harapan Freya tidak akan bisa terungkap.

Dan itu tidak akan berbeda untuk kesimpulan yang tersisa.

"Bala bantuan dari dunia lain."

Harapan lain yang dimiliki Freya. Tali terakhir yang bisa digantung dengan sungguh-sungguh.

Ada orang yang keluar Valhalla menghindari mata orang lain pada hari Valhalla disegel.

Sebagian dari mereka pindah untuk mengirimkan pemberitahuan ke pasukan Thor tetapi tujuan untuk yang lain berbeda. Mereka bergerak menuju Olympus dan Kuil.

“Kami memburu satu lagi. Menuai tidak begitu bagus, mungkin karena kita hampir selesai dengan benteng. "

Raja penyihir menoleh ke arah suara itu terdengar. Raja binatang buas Tiachi, yang merupakan salah satu raja raksasa, melemparkan Valkyrie ke kaki raja penyihir. Valkyrie yang hampir telanjang sudah setengah mati. Ada luka dan bekas luka yang tak terhitung jumlahnya di tubuhnya dan juga jejak yang telah dipermainkannya.

Raja penyihir memandang Tiachi.

Dia juga raksasa kecil seperti Sigil atau Loki.

Teknik transformasi adalah keahliannya dan keterampilan berburu adalah salah satu yang terbaik bahkan di antara raja-raja raksasa.

Dia memiliki tubuh yang mirip dengan para prajurit Valhalla karena dia sedikit lebih tinggi dari 2 meter tetapi penampilannya berbeda dari manusia. Kulitnya yang menutupi baja seperti ototnya berwarna merah dan bulunya yang tumbuh seperti serigala berwarna abu-abu. Giginya seperti hiu dan matanya menyerupai elang.

Dia, yang mengenakan bulu binatang buas jahat yang hanya tinggal di Jotunheim, menginjak Valkyrie yang nyaris tak bernafas. Dia tertawa seolah-olah itu menyenangkan bahwa Valkyrie mengejang dan menginjaknya sedikit lebih.

“Dia sedang menuju ke Kuil. Dia sudah berusia tiga puluh. Berapa banyak Valkyrie yang dikirim pelacur Freya ke kuburan mereka? Terutama ketika dia bersembunyi di dalam Valhalla. "

Mereka adalah utusan untuk memberi tahu tentang urgensi Asgard.

Tiga puluh Valkyrie dari pasukan Hermod, yang sangat cepat di antara Valkyrie lainnya, terlalu banyak jumlahnya.

Karena bahkan Freya tidak akan bisa membayangkan mereka tertangkap bahkan sebelum mereka pergi ke Kuil.

"Sungguh menyenangkan mengirimmu."

Tiachi tertawa sekali lagi pada kata-kata raja penyihir yang dipenuhi dengan kekaguman. Jika bukan untuknya, itu adalah pemburu terbaik Jotunheim, yang lain akan berakhir kehilangan beberapa Valkyrie.

Tiachi, yang tertawa cukup lama, menendang Valkyrie yang dia injak dengan jari kakinya untuk membuatnya berbalik dan kemudian menginjaknya dengan kuat. Dia memejamkan mata dan menghargai erangannya yang tidak kuat seolah itu adalah musik yang manis untuk telinganya. Dia kemudian mengangkat kepalanya dan berkata.

"Raja Penyihir, aku yakin kamu ingat janji kita. Hari kami mengambil alih Valhalla, Freya dan Idun akan menjadi milikku. ”

Para Dewi yang dikenal sebagai yang paling cantik dan mulia di antara beberapa Dewa Asgard.

Raja penyihir menghadap mata Tiachi yang dipenuhi dengan keserakahan dan menjawab dengan senang hati.

"Aku berjanji sekali lagi, Tiachi. Mereka akan menjadi milikmu. "

Senyum menyebar di wajah Tiachi. Gigi hiu yang muncul dari bawah bersinar.

“Aku menyukai mereka sejak sebelumnya. Anda bisa mempercayai saya tentang hal ini, ini bukan dusta. "

Tiachi melihat sekeliling dinding yang disandarkan oleh raja penyihir dan kemudian melemparkan Valkyrie dengan kakinya seolah-olah dia sedang memegang bola dan meraihnya.

Valkyrie, yang diraih kepalanya, jatuh tak berdaya tetapi dia masih bernapas.

“Dia, Valkyrie benar-benar baik bermain karena itu sulit. Raja penyihir, lain kali aku akan menunjukkan kepadamu perisai yang kubuat. Jalang ini juga akan menjadi perisai yang sangat bagus. Saya sudah melihat ke depan ekspresi yang akan dibuat para bajingan Valhalla ketika mereka melihatnya. "

Perisai yang dibicarakan Tiachi sebenarnya adalah perisai. Dia mengikat Valkyrie yang telanjang ke perisai besar dan persegi dan membuat bawahannya membawanya. Itu adalah hobi yang tidak menyenangkan, tetapi itu adalah metode yang sangat bagus untuk menjatuhkan moral musuh dan membuat mereka kehilangan kesadaran karena amarah.

"Aku berterima kasih atas kerja kerasmu."

Tiachi mendecakkan lidahnya pada jawaban Tiachi dan mengangkat bahu.

“Mengubah subjek. Ada satu hal yang ingin saya tanyakan. Apa benar meninggalkan Asgard sendirian? ”

Kuil itu bukan satu-satunya wilayah yang berdekatan dengan Asgard. Bisa dibilang Olympus telah membentuk aliansi dengan Asgard sejak lama.

Tetapi raja penyihir tidak mengangkat pertahanan apa pun di sisi Olympus.

Dan karena dia telah melakukannya dengan terlalu berani, Tiachi bertanya-tanya apakah dia memiliki semacam rencana, tetapi bukankah ada raksasa yang telah pindah ke pihak mereka secara diam-diam juga.

"Itu tidak akan menjadi masalah."

Alis Tiachi berkedut karena jawaban singkatnya tetapi segera kembali normal. Dia mengangguk bukannya mengintip lebih jauh.

“Menyesal sekali. Jumlah perisai akan berlipat ganda jika aku juga menangkapnya. ”

Asgard akan menyebarkan nomor yang sama yang mereka kirim ke Kuil ke Olympus.

“Aku akan pergi sekarang. Perburuan ke-31 saya mungkin sudah menunggu saya. ”

Tiachi tertawa dan berbalik.

Raja penyihir berbalik untuk melihat Valhalla sekali lagi alih-alih melacak jejak Tiachi yang menghilang seperti angin. Suara baru terdengar dari dinding yang rusak.

"Dia pria yang dangkal."

Itu adalah raksasa malam Avalt.

Dia adalah satu-satunya yang lebih dari pembantu di antara Lima Jari daripada seorang pejuang. Karena itu, ia juga tidak pilih-pilih menggunakan metode kotor untuk mendapatkan kemenangan tetapi ia juga memiliki batas.

Jika raksasa kekuatan Harad atau raksasa bumi Balgad masih hidup, mereka akan mengerutkan kening pada tindakan jahatnya.

Tapi raja penyihir agak tersenyum.

"Benar, itu sebabnya sangat mudah untuk menanganinya. Dibandingkan dengan Hrumbak atau yang lainnya. "

Tidak ada pemberitahuan dari Hrumbak, yang telah pergi untuk menyerang Niflheim, selama beberapa hari. Dia mengharapkan dia untuk bertindak sesuai keinginannya karena dia memiliki rasa persaingan terhadap raja penyihir tetapi level itu perlahan melewati batas.

"Aku harus mengirim utusan sebentar."

Sepertinya dia menyelesaikan tugasnya dengan baik karena tidak ada bala bantuan dari Niflheim jadi dia hanya perlu memberinya peringatan.

"Berapa lama sampai segel itu rusak?"

"Ini akan berakhir setidaknya dalam sepuluh hari."

Alasan mereka tidak bisa menghancurkan penghalang Besar bahkan setelah beberapa hari berlalu adalah karena Valhalla juga tidak tinggal diam.

Tetapi sekarang, situasinya berbeda. Tidak ada seorang pun yang terhalang dengan perusakan segel.

Paling banyak dalam sepuluh hari.

Raja penyihir sudah menunggu seratus tahun. Siapa pun bisa menunggu sebanyak itu.

"Aku menunggu nanti. Bukankah itu benar, Loki? "

Raja penyihir menoleh dan bertanya, tetapi Loki yang tergantung di rantai terikat ke dinding tidak menjawab. Dia hanya menatap Valhalla dengan matanya yang kehilangan cahaya.

&

Valkyrie Kaldea, dari pasukan Hermod memaksa tersenyum.

"Jadi aku akan mati seperti ini."

Dia telah merencanakan untuk mati lebih bahagia sementara lusinan pria tampan mengawasinya.

Daripada selusin pria, tidak ada seorang pun di tempat ini. Satu-satunya hal yang berada di pinggiran Asgard, yang dekat dengan kuil, adalah mayat para pejuang, pecahan prajurit baja, tembok yang hancur dan roh-roh jahat.

"Kugh."

Kaldea menutup matanya dan mengerang. Langkah kaki mendekat dari jauh. Itu adalah langkah-langkah roh jahat. Biasanya, dia akan bisa menyapu mereka dengan mudah tetapi tidak mungkin untuk melakukannya sekarang. Luka-lukanya terlalu serius. Dia bahkan tidak bisa mengangkat pedangnya dengan tangan gemetaran.

"Apakah ada yang selamat?"

Bisakah seseorang menuju Kuil dengan aman?

Beberapa saudara perempuannya diburu oleh raja binatang Tiachi, yang benar-benar seperti binatang buas. Mungkin, Kaldea akan menjadi Valkyrie terakhir yang tersisa.

Langkah kaki itu sekarang ada di dekatnya. Kaldea membuka matanya dan melihat roh-roh jahat yang telah berkumpul. Dia melihat bahwa roh-roh jahat yang mendekatinya sambil mengeluarkan uap panas berjumlah selusin.

"Anjing seperti bajingan."

Bahkan sulit untuk mengutuk dengan keras. Kaldea dengan kuat menahan rasa sakit untuk berdiri dan kemudian mengangkat kepalanya sambil berkeringat dingin. Dia tidak bisa mengeluarkan pedangnya tetapi berhasil mengucapkan kata-kata terakhirnya.

"Datang kepadaku."

Karena dia akan berjuang sampai akhir.

Jika dia tidak bisa mengayunkan pedangnya, dia akan menggigitnya dengan giginya. Roh-roh jahat menyerang Kaldea dan dia tidak mengalihkan pandangan dari mereka. Itu sebabnya dia bisa melihatnya.

Sebuah panah datang.

Itu adalah panah yang cepat dan kuat yang seperti aliran cahaya.

Sekitar sepuluh anak panah lagi ditembakkan dan jumlah persis iblis runtuh ketika jumlah anak panah.

Dan angin kencang bertiup. Apa yang bisa dilihat Kaldea setelah angin tenang adalah roh-roh jahat yang telah runtuh seperti sedotan busuk.

Kaldea mengerjap dan kemudian memasang senyum cerah alih-alih memaksakannya.

"Prajurit Idun."

. "Kaldea!"

Tae Ho buru-buru berlari menuju Kaldea, yang akan segera runtuh begitu dia selesai berbicara. Itu sama untuk Siri, yang menembakkan panah dari jauh, dan Bracky yang ada di sebelahnya.

Tae Ho berbohong pada Kaldea dan dengan cepat menuangkan ramuan ke luka perutnya. Dia juga tidak lupa menaruh sepotong apel emas di mulutnya.

"Kaldea, kamu baik-baik saja?"

Kaldea dengan paksa mengunyah potongan apel emas alih-alih menjawab Tae Ho. Efeknya segera, tetapi rasa kantuk menyerangnya karena kelelahan yang luar biasa.

Kaldea dengan paksa membuka matanya yang tertutup dan menatap yang berkumpul di sebelahnya. Mereka semua akrab dengannya.

Tae Ho, Siri dan Bracky.

"Tidak ada selusin dari kalian, tetapi aku masih senang bahwa ada pria tampan."

Kaldea berbicara dengan main-main dan menutup matanya. Tae Ho dan yang lainnya tersentak pada itu dan kemudian menghela napas lega ketika mereka mendengar dia mendengkur.

"Tampan. Kaldea pasti memiliki mata. ”

Siri mengerutkan kening ketika Bracky tersenyum seperti orang bodoh dan menggaruk hidungnya.

“Apakah Anda punya hati nurani? Anda harus melihat cermin sesekali. "

“Ey, mengapa iri? Anda juga menyukainya. "

Bracky bertindak seolah-olah dia malu dan sedikit menabrak bahu Siri. Cuchulainn berbicara saat wajahnya berubah lebih mengerikan.

"Mengapa kamu tidak mengatakan apa-apa? Hah? Anda harus mengatakan bahwa yang tampan bukan Bracky tetapi Anda. "

"Tidak perlu berdebat dengan sesuatu yang jelas."

‘Bajingan tak tahu malu. Aku bahkan tidak bisa menggodamu sekarang. "

Tae Ho memeriksa keadaan Kaldea dengan 'mata naga' dan menghela nafas lega. Sepertinya hidupnya tidak dalam bahaya.

Tiga hari setelah mereka meninggalkan cabang tertinggi.

Tae Ho mengalihkan pandangannya dari Kaldea dan melihat ke tempat lain. Rasgrid dan para prajurit, yang telah berkumpul kembali di Midgard, mendekati mereka.

‘Semuanya memiliki urutannya.’

Itu adalah kata-kata Odin. Dia saat ini di Niflheim. Gagak-gagak yang telah berpisah dengannya menyebarkan pemberitahuan tidak hanya di Midgard dan Asgard tetapi juga di Nidavellir dan Svartalfheim dan sedang mengumpulkan pasukan.

Nidhogg dan Hraesvelg menyembunyikan diri di Midgard.

Itu adalah kartu truf yang dimiliki Tae Ho dan Odin, sama seperti raja penyihir yang menggunakan serigala dunia.

Pertama-tama mereka akan mendirikan markas di Asgard.

Tae Ho melihat ke arah benteng yang rusak. Dia bisa melihat melalui 'matanya naga' bahwa benteng kecil itu dipenuhi dengan huruf merah.

Bracky membawa Kaldea di punggungnya dan Siri meraih busur ajaib Tristan, Palenote, dengan lengan perak kanannya Nuadha.

"Komandan, perintahnya."

Valkyrie Rasgrid berkata dengan suara rendah. Dua puluh prajurit yang merupakan krim panen bahkan di antara yang tersisa di Midgard menunggu pesanan Tae Ho.

Tujuan mereka adalah merebut kembali benteng. Menyiapkan basis.

"Ayo pergi."

Tae Ho berkata singkat. Bracky tertawa dan mengikuti perintahnya.

Asgard, itu diambil oleh para raksasa.

Itu adalah awal dari serangan balik yang hebat.

< Episode 42 – Great counter attack (1) > Akhir

====

Malam sebelum Tae Ho menuju ke Asgard, Odin mengumpulkan Tae Ho, para prajurit dan Valkyrie dan mulai berbicara kepada mereka.

"Asgard saat ini diambil alih oleh para raksasa."

Itu adalah fakta yang semua orang tahu tetapi yang berbicara adalah raja Dewa Odin. Sekali lagi mereka bisa merasakan betapa putus asanya situasi ini.

Odin menjelaskan situasi melalui hologram yang dia perlihatkan kepada Tae Ho.

Ada banyak lingkaran merah besar di atas cetakan Valhalla. Mereka adalah raksasa.

“Seperti yang kau lihat, kekuatan yang dimiliki raksasa itu ada dua. Salah satunya adalah pasukan Jotunheim yang dipimpin oleh raja penyihir dan yang lainnya adalah pasukan elit Harmarti yang telah berhadapan dengan Asgard di garis depan. "

Odin telah mengumpulkan informasi melalui gagak pada hari-hari ini. Mereka tidak memiliki detail karena mereka tidak punya banyak waktu tetapi mungkin untuk menggambar garis besar secara umum.

"Kekuatan utama para raksasa ada di depan pasukan Valhalla dan Thor."

Kedua belah pihak diisolasi karena raksasa dan roh jahat. Selain itu, ada jarak yang cukup di antara mereka. Valhalla berada di pusat Asgard dan pasukan Thor berada di pinggiran Asgard, yang lebih dekat ke Jotunheim.

"Saat ini ada dua hal yang bisa kita lakukan dengan pasukan kita saat ini."

Para prajurit berkumpul dari Midgard, bala bantuan dari Niflheim, naga hitam Nidhogg dan raja burung Hraesvelg.

Mereka sedikit jumlahnya tetapi merupakan kekuatan yang kuat yang tidak bisa diabaikan oleh siapa pun.

"Pertama, dukung Thor."

Mereka akan meminjamkan kekuatan mereka kepada Thor dan mengalahkan Harmarti dan pasukannya. Mereka akan mengalahkan raja penyihir setelah itu dan mengambil kembali Valhalla.

Sepertinya itu akan menjadi metode yang baik pada pandangan pertama tetapi itu tidak terjadi jika Anda melihat semua kondisi.

Masalah pertama adalah terlalu lama.

"Ada juga kemungkinan bahwa Valhalla tidak akan mampu menanggungnya."

Pasukan Harmarti sama sekali tidak lemah. Pasti mereka tidak akan bisa mengalahkan pasukannya dengan mudah bahkan setelah bergabung dengan pasukan Thor.

Valhalla menjadi tempat terpenting Asgard setelah perang hebat. Sebagian besar Dewa Asgard saat ini berkumpul di Valhalla.

"Yang lain adalah untuk membantu Valhalla."

Mereka akan menyerang raja penyihir dan pasukannya yang mengelilingi Valhalla atau setidaknya memberikan mereka kekuatan untuk menyerang balik.

Ini juga tidak mudah. Mereka tidak bisa memastikan seberapa besar kekuatan yang dimiliki raja penyihir dalam keadaan siaga. Mungkin mustahil untuk mengalahkannya dengan kekuatan mereka saat ini.

"Apa pun yang kita pilih, adalah mungkin untuk menimbulkan kerusakan yang signifikan. Tapi kita tidak bisa memutuskannya dengan terburu-buru. "

Mereka membutuhkan lebih banyak informasi.

Dan juga lebih banyak waktu.

"Asgard luas dan para raksasa dan iblis tidak mampu mengambil alih semuanya. Ada celah. "

Apa yang dipikirkan Odin adalah serangan gerilya.

Pertama-tama mereka akan menyerang raksasa dari daerah luar sambil menyembunyikan Nidhogg dan Hraesvelg.

Sama seperti yang dikatakan sebelumnya, bahkan jika Asgard lebih kecil dari Midgard itu masih besar.

Karena itu, para raksasa juga tersebar. Ada banyak tempat yang bisa disembunyikan oleh para penyintas.

Ada kemungkinan besar mereka akan berpikir bahwa serangan gerilya dilakukan secara sporadis oleh para pejuang yang selamat.

Mereka akan memotong dari luar. Mereka akan mengurangi kekuatan raksasa sedikit demi sedikit dan mengumpulkan informasi.

Tetapi ia juga memiliki kekurangannya.

Itu adalah metode yang tidak dapat dihindari membutuhkan waktu. Mereka berada dalam situasi bahwa mereka harus membuat perubahan sebelum Valhalla jatuh sehingga menghabiskan waktu bukanlah hal yang baik.

"Mereka mungkin juga menyadari keberadaan Nidhogg dengan apa yang mereka dengar dari Niflheim."

Nidhogg tersentak mendengar komentar Odin dan memasang ekspresi ketakutan. Adenmaha, yang ada di sebelahnya, memeluknya dan mengatakan kepadanya untuk tidak khawatir sehingga dia tenang hampir seketika tetapi orang-orang yang melihat mereka hanya bisa membuat ekspresi dipenuhi kehangatan dan kekhawatiran.

Odin juga tersenyum pahit. Dia berbalik untuk melihat tempat lain dan berkata.

“Tapi kita masih punya Hraesvelg. Selain itu, keberadaan Nidhogg itu sendiri dapat menjadi sarana untuk menindas mereka. "

Hraesvelg mendengus sambil menyilangkan tangan. Vedrfolnir mengangguk di sebelahnya seolah itu benar-benar jelas tetapi Nidhogg memiringkan kepalanya karena dia tidak mengerti dengan baik.

‘Raksasa tidak akan tahu sifat Nidhogg …… tidak, warna yang benar? Apa pun, mereka tidak akan tahu anak seperti apa dia. "

Naga hitam Nidhogg.

Keberadaan yang kuat yang bisa mengakhiri dunia.

Seperti yang dikatakan Cuchulainn, mengetahui bahwa Nidhogg telah menjadi musuh mereka bisa berfungsi sebagai penindasan yang luar biasa.

"Prajurit Idun."

Tae Ho mengekspresikan etiket atas panggilan Odin. Odin mendekatinya dan meletakkan tangannya di bahu Tae Ho.

“Aku akan menyerahkan komando para prajurit padamu. Menyelamatkan Valhalla dan Asgard sebagai komandan Idun. "

Ada banyak prajurit peringkat tinggi yang memiliki pengalaman lebih dari Tae Ho di antara yang berkumpul. Tapi Tae Ho adalah satu-satunya komandan dan semua orang tahu apa kelebihannya.

Prajurit Valhalla tidak cemburu kekanak-kanakan. Para pejuang besar tahu bagaimana cara jujur ​​menghargai dan mencintai.

Semua orang menyetujui keputusan Odin. Tae Ho juga menyatakan etiket dan menerima pesanannya.

"Untuk Asgard dan sembilan wilayah."

"Untuk Asgard dan sembilan wilayah."

Keesokan paginya, Tae Ho menuju ke Asgard dengan elit yang telah dia pilih.

&

Setengah hari setelah Tae Ho tiba di Asgard.

Kaldea, pasukan Valkyrie dari Hermod, perlahan membuka matanya. Hal pertama yang dilihatnya dari pandangan buramnya adalah seorang wanita cantik yang mengeluarkan getaran liar.

"Apakah kamu bangun?"

Kaldea berkedip sekali. Dia bangun sedikit lebih dan ingat siapa cantik di depannya. Itu sebabnya dia membuat lelucon bukannya menjawab.

"Akan lebih baik jika itu adalah seorang pria tampan yang menungguku, bukan kecantikan."

"Kamu memang baik-baik saja."

Siri menggelengkan kepalanya dan berkata, tetapi wajahnya benar-benar cerah. Itu karena dia sangat senang pada kenyataan bahwa Kaldea telah pulih sampai dia bisa memecahkan lelucon.

Kaldea menatap wajah Siri dan kemudian memutar matanya. Dia berada di kamar yang nyaman yang memiliki dinding dan langit-langit. Itu adalah adegan yang tidak dikenal, tetapi dia tidak merasa takut karena Siri ada di sebelahnya.

"Pria tampan ada di sini."

Suara serak terdengar. Kaldea menggerakkan matanya secara refleks dan berkata dengan suara lelah setelah dia memandang Bracky yang menyeringai.

“Sepertinya telingaku tidak sembuh dengan benar …… dan mataku kabur. Di mana pria tampan di sini? Ah, apa aku salah dengar? ”

“Hiks hiks hiks. Mereka sangat menyukai wajah saya di Midgard. Benar siri? Hah?"

Bracky pura-pura menangis di serangan balik Kaldea dan kemudian bertanya sambil mencibir ke Siri. Dia menjawab sambil menarik kembali.

"Aku tidak ingin menjawab sekarang."

Mata Kaldea bersinar pada kata ‘saat ini’. Dia buru-buru membuka mulutnya dan menyela.

"Ini lelucon, lelucon. Saya sangat puas dengan Bracky. Ia gagah, dapat diandalkan, memiliki otot. Benar, Siri? Hah? Orang-orang memiliki selera mereka sendiri. ”

"Kenapa kamu seperti itu bagiku?"

Kaldea terkikik ketika Siri menatapnya dengan mata kesal. Dia kemudian meraih perutnya seolah-olah lukanya sakit.

"Itu menyakitkan. Banyak."

"Jangan berlebihan melakukannya karena kamu baru saja bangun."

Itu suara lain. Mereka belum bisa melihat pemilik suara itu karena Bracky besar sedang menutupi dirinya tetapi suaranya cukup untuk Kaldea.

"Ini putri es kita. Bisakah kamu memelukku sekali? Saya nyaris tidak selamat. Saya ingin memeluk seseorang. Peluk aku."

Rasgrid menghela nafas tetapi memenuhi permintaan Kaldea. Itu karena dia akan bisa melakukan apa pun karena Kaldea nyaris tidak berhasil bertahan hidup, seperti yang dia katakan.

Pelukan itu tidak hangat karena Rasgrid mengenakan baju besinya, dibandingkan dengan pakaian ringan Kaldea. Tetapi Rasgrid tidak melewatkan bahwa Kaldea gemetar dari pelukannya. Sepertinya dia menyembunyikan beberapa emosi sambil berpura-pura kuat.

"Kaldea."

Kaldea menyeringai mendengar panggilan rendah Rasgrid. Dia mendorongnya menjauh seolah-olah dia benar-benar baik-baik saja dan kemudian berbicara sambil bersandar di tempat tidur.

"Seorang pria tampan yang nyata telah datang."

"Sangat?"

Tae Ho mendekati tempat tidur ketika Bracky bergumam dengan suara rendah. Kaldea bertanya dengan ekspresi masih cerah.

"Di mana kita?"

"Itu adalah … rumah pribadi yang ada di dekatnya."

Mereka telah mengambil kembali benteng kecil yang diambil alih oleh roh-roh jahat tetapi kelompok itu meninggalkannya karena dalam kondisi yang buruk dan tidak layak untuk membela atau menyembunyikan diri.

Alasan Tae Ho berhenti ketika dia berbicara adalah karena dia ragu apakah ungkapan 'rumah pribadi' itu benar.

Itu karena rumah ini adalah milik warga negara Asgard-a God.

‘Erin juga seperti ini. Tepatnya, kota tempat tinggal Tuatha De Danann adalah seperti ini. "

Tuatha De Danann adalah klan yang seluruhnya terdiri dari para Dewa.

Cuchulainn bukan satu-satunya yang tidak melihat di mana Tae Ho bingung. Ada pepatah yang mengatakan bahwa benang mengikuti di mana jarum berada, dan Adenmaha yang berdiri di sebelah Tae Ho menjepit sisinya dengan sikunya dan berkata.

"Kenapa kamu begitu canggung? Sepertinya Anda terus melupakan ini, tetapi saya juga seorang Dewa. "

Dia adalah seorang Dewi Tuatha De Danann dan juga seorang Valkyrie.

‘Rasgrid dan Kaldea juga adalah Dewa. Dewi. Heda juga. Kenapa kamu bertingkah seperti ini? Apakah Anda lupa di mana ini? "

Tanah para Dewa Asgard. Jelas bahwa itu diisi dengan Dewa.

Di sisi lain, Kaldea yang senang melihat Tae Ho yang canggung, mengambil napas dalam-dalam dan mengangguk.

“Kamu masih hidup. Benar, saya pikir Anda tidak akan mati semudah itu. Saya senang. Heda benar. "

Ada desas-desus bahwa Tae Ho telah mati bersama Odin. Idun dan Heda membantah tetapi semua Valhalla, termasuk Kaldea, telah menerima rumor itu benar.

Tae Ho menggigit bibirnya saat Kaldea menyebut Heda. Dia ingin bertanya beberapa hal tetapi ada hal lain yang diprioritaskan saat ini.

Rasgrid menoleh untuk menatap Tae Ho sejenak dan kemudian berkata sambil menatap Kaldea sekali lagi.

“Kaldea, aku akan memberitahumu situasinya. Dengarkan saat Anda pulih. "

Lampu penyembuhan muncul di tangan Rasgrid. Kaldea menerima tangan Rasgrid tetapi dia menggelengkan kepalanya tentang situasinya.

"Tidak, tidak apa-apa. Ada kemungkinan saya bisa membocorkan informasi ketika saya tertangkap. "

"Kaldea-nim?"

Untuk mengatakan kapan dia tertangkap.

Kaldea hanya tersenyum pahit pada pertanyaan Siri dan kemudian bertanya kepada Rasgrid dan Tae Ho.

"Katakan saja padaku satu hal. Apakah Odin baik-baik saja? "

"Dia adalah."

Kaldea merasa puas dengan jawaban Tae Ho. Dia menghela nafas karena dia tidak memiliki penyesalan dan memasang ekspresi santai.

"Baik. Sudah cukup dengan itu. Saya akan bisa lebih lega. "

Itu adalah suara yang tipis tetapi Anda bisa merasakan tekadnya di dalamnya. Rasgrid meraih tangan Kaldea dan bertanya.

“Kaldea, kamu bilang mau kemana? Apakah itu terkait dengan surat yang Anda miliki? "

"Ya itu betul. Saya harus pergi ke Kuil dan meminta bala bantuan. Seperti yang kami lakukan dalam perang hebat. ”

Situasi saat ini sama dengan seratus tahun yang lalu. Legiun Valkyrie dari Hermod memikul bahaya dan menuju ke Olympus dan Kuil untuk memberi tahu tentang urgensi Asgard.

"Jalan menuju kuil dipenuhi dengan raksasa dan roh jahat."

"Aku tahu. Tapi saya masih harus pergi karena ini sesuatu yang penting, bukan? "

Sudah hampir tiga puluh saudara perempuannya diburu. Mungkin, Kaldea mungkin Valkyrie terakhir yang memegang surat.

Situasi saat ini menyedihkan bahkan jika Odin benar-benar hidup. Kami benar-benar membutuhkan bantuan Kuil.

“Kami tidak punya waktu. Aku akan pergi sekarang."

"Tidak mungkin sendirian."

Rasgrid dengan paksa meraih Kaldea, berusaha bangkit dari tempat tidurnya. Tae Ho bertukar pandang dengan Siri dan berbicara dengan Kaldea.

"Kami akan pergi bersamamu. Kami akan membuat celah. "

Pertama, kelompok Tae Ho berencana untuk melaksanakan taktik gerilya di Asgard. Berjuang untuk mengirimkan surat ke Kuil sudah cukup menjadi alasan.

Tapi Kaldea menggelengkan kepalanya.

“Yang menjaga jalan adalah salah satu raja raksasa, raja Binatang Tiachi. Ia juga memiliki banyak bawahannya. Saya tahu bahwa Anda mengalahkan Tyrant Bress tetapi itu imp …… ”

Dia berhenti di sana. Kaldea, yang akan mengatakan bahwa lebih baik jika dia memikul semua bahaya sendirian daripada menempatkan semua orang dalam bahaya, berhenti berbicara tanpa sadar.

Itu bukan karena Tae Ho memberitahunya tentang Nidhogg dan Hraesvelg. Alasan dia terkejut hanya karena Tae Ho.

"Ah, apa yang terjadi ketika aku tidak melihatmu?"

Sekitar dua bulan sejak pertempuran di Kalliv Ahim.

Kaldea merasakan kebingungan yang sama seperti yang dirasakan Siri dan Bracky dan mengangguk sambil tersenyum pahit.

Adenmaha mendengus seolah-olah dialah yang mendengar pujian dan bertindak kuat.

Kaldea masih menatap Tae Ho. Dia berbicara singkat setelah melepaskan sebagian dari kekuatannya.

"Banyak hal telah terjadi."

Sebenarnya cukup banyak.

Tae Ho meraih tangan Kaldea. Dia bertanya ke arahnya yang mata birunya bersinar dengan harapan, kejutan dan kebingungan pada saat yang sama.

"Ceritakan tentang raja Binatang Tiachi."

Kaldea tidak menurun lagi. Dia mengatakan kepadanya semua yang dia ketahui.

< Episode 42 – Great counter attack (2) > Akhir

======

Valkyrie Hrist hampir mati.

Dia, yang termasuk legiun Hermod, sedang menyelesaikan tugas yang diberikan oleh Freya.

Beritahu tentang urgensi untuk Olympus dan Kuil.

72 Valkyrie menerima surat yang isinya sama. Mereka, yang keluar dari Valhalla ketika disegel, berserakan ke dua arah sambil berdoa untuk keselamatan satu sama lain.

Arah yang dituju Hrist adalah jalur yang terhubung ke Kuil.

Ada dunia kecil di Asgard seperti Midgard dan Svartalvheim.

Asgard, Midgard, dan Niflheim terhubung langsung ke bagian yang dimanifestasikan dari pohon dunia dan dunia-dunia kecil yang tersisa dihubungkan oleh jalur yang tidak terlihat melalui sistem Yggdrasil.

Kuil dan Olympus adalah alam yang sebanding dengan Asgard.

Alam dalam moto Valhalla ‘Untuk Asgard dan sembilan alam’ merujuk pada Kuil, Olympus, Erin, dan dunia-dunia semacam itu.

Anda harus terlebih dahulu melewati lokasi khusus untuk pergi ke luar Asgard. Jika Anda menganggap setiap dunia sebagai benua atau pulau, tempat di antaranya adalah laut dan lokasi khusus adalah pelabuhan.

Hrist bernapas dengan kasar. Dia tidak memiliki kekuatan saat dibawa oleh raja Binatang Tiachi. Her limbs fluttered strengthlessly following Tiachi’s steps.

Her sisters that headed to Olympus couldn’t know the situation but the ones that were heading to the Temple knew how terrible the situation was.

Could Kaldea have escaped?

The Valkyrie that had been with her until the end among the 31 Valkyries that were headed to the Temple.

The Valkyries got helplessly hunted down by Tiachi and his underlings. They cruelly hunted them down one by one from the fortresses that got destroyed due to the great earthquake as if hunting down foxes.

When all of her many sisters got caught and only Hrist and Kaldea were left, Hrist made a decision. She would become bait so that Kaldea could escape.

Hrist couldn’t think anymore. She felt absent minded. It was because all the things the Beast king did to her after she got caught had worn her away physically and mentally.

“We are almost there.”

Tiachi snickered and said. Hrist, that was being carried in his shoulder naked, couldn’t see her surroundings properly. But she could know where she was just by smelling the nasty smell piercing her nose and the wicked laughters.

It was the headquarters Tiachi had set up in the path leading to the Temple.

Originally, he had to come here as soon as he caught Hrist but Tiachi took a long detour. He played with Hrist for a few hours and then went to the base that was located near Valhalla to boast about his hunt to the magician king and he then roamed its surroundings to hunt the remaining warriors.

“Valkyries are always good bait.”

The warriors of Valhalla were way too simple. It was because they went crazy whenever they heard a scream from a Valkyrie.

Tiachi laughed for a long while and threw Hrist to the ground. The pain that covered her body when she hit the ground made Tiachi enjoy the scene.

“You look just like a bug when you twitch.”

Tiachi kicked Hrist. If she was a normal human, she would have already died but ironically, she couldn’t die as she was a Valkyrie. SHe just squeezed out a groan and suffered.

The underlings of Tiachi, the small giants and evil spirits, gathered next to her. There were some that gulped saliva as if looking at food and there were others that were panting because their bodies heated up.

“Play with her moderately and leave.”

Tiachi snickered and said and then, one of the underlings hurriedly raised Hrist as if he was waiting for it. He forcefully grabbed on Hrist’s jaw and made her look at one place.

Hrist became dumbfounded. She couldn’t think anything as if her head had stopped.

There were naked Valkyries hanging on a board as if they were flags. There were clear traces that they got toyed with and one of them was still being toyed by the evil spirits.

It was a cruel and terrible scene. An exclamation that was like a scream came out from her mouth.

“Ahh, ahhhh!”

It was a cry filled with despair. The voice that was mixed with grief and still had some resolution in it transmitted a new pleasant feeling to Tiachi.

Tiachi moved his chin slightly and then his underlings laughed and threw Hrist to the ground. They started to toy with Hrist to their heart contents while the Valkyries that were hanging on looked that.

A sob was heard. Even the Valkyries that had steel like resolution had a limit. Tiachi could feel his breath get rough just by hearing the weak cry.

The joy of dirtying a white snow field.

The pleasure of breaking a clean glass.

It was this fun just to toy with the Valkyries so how fun will it be with the Goddesses? What kind of pleasure will he get when he broke Freya and Idun?

Blood gathered to his lower body just by imagining that. Tiachi then looked at the Valkyries that were hanging.

“My king.”

One giant appeared at that moment and called out to Tiachi. It was Tiachi’s underling, Itaka that was about 3 meters tall.

Tiachi frowned as the sexual desire that had surged up had disappeared but he didn’t get angry. Itaka was a precious underling to him. In addition, it would be something important if he came to speak to him knowing how he would be feeling right now.

And it was as he expected.

“We have discovered traces of a Valkyrie. It seems like it’s the one we missed that time.”

The one that was together with Hrist.

Tiachi’s eyes shone with greed. Itaka started to explain a bit faster.

“It seems like there’s a connection with the evil spirits that disappeared from the small destroyed fortress. Currently, the beaters are driving her to a corner.”

Itaka explained briefly the things he guessed had happened in the small fortress. Tiachi didn’t mind that weak evil spirits died but he felt joy in Itaka’s explanation. And the reason for it was simple.

“She’s still lively. It would be worth playing with her.”

Looking that she slashed away dozens of evil spirits alone meant that she still had energy. The more energetical and outstanding a Valkyrie was, the more fun he got when he broke her down.

Itaka explained about the place and the situation that they were driving the Valkyrie at. IT seems like the Valkyrie didn’t choose to escape but chose to pierce a path to go to the Temple.

“She’s also quite faithful.”

Tiachi snickered.

The path going to the Temple wasn’t completely blocked. Tiachi had left one open on purpose.

The strand like path that was connected to the Temple.

It was really obvious that it was a trap but you had to pass through it to reach the Temple.

Teachi made a decision. There was no reason to delay. He shrugged his shoulders once and then approached the evil spirits that were playing with Hrist. He slapped her cheek as was closing her eyes while taking in all of the humiliation to make her open her eyes.

“I discovered the place the sister you have rescued is at. I will bring her now.”

He whispered with a low voice and waited. For Hrist’s expression to contort. For her to show him eyes that was filled with grief and sorrow.

And it turned out as he wanted. Tears flowed down from Hrist’s eyes.

“It will be a beautiful reencounter.”

Tiachi slapped her one more time strongly. He snickered at Hrist that had blood flowing from her mouth and stood up.

"Ayo pergi."

Tiachi took the lead after he spoke freshly. He heard the footsteps of Itaka and the hunters from his back and the groans of the Valkyrie and looked at a distant place.

He went out to hunt once again.

&

Valkyrie Kaldea was fleeing right now. Her unique battle uniform of Valkyries was torn and broken, and there was a big blood stain in her stomach.

The small giants chased after Kaldea, that was fleeing desperately. The beaters could catch up to her whenever they wanted but they maintained some distance on purpose. Their role was to harass their prey, not to catch it.

Kaldea panted while sweating like rain. Anyone could clearly see that she was at her limit.

It was too pitiful to see her escape while limping.

The beaters snickered and chased her back and there was someone looking at that from afar.

‘It looks real. It was worth having closed my eyes at your atrocities.’

Cuchulainn laughed as if it was absurd.

The Kaldea that was fleeing right now was a fake made with Tae Ho’s saga. But you couldn’t differentiate her from being real or not just by looking at her looks. In addition, fleeing as if she was greatly injured didn’t seem like an act but the real deal.

The place the fake Kaldea was running at was a forest that was close to the Temple.

Tae Ho hid his body in the shadows and waited for the hunt to take the bait. However, beings such as the beaters weren’t the hunt Tae Ho was waiting for.

The Beast king Tiachi.

One of the giant kings that came from Jotunheim.

The situation wouldn’t end by simply removing him. There were many things to take into account.

And among them, one of the most important thing was to send Kaldea safely to the Temple. That’s why they also had to remove Tiachi’s forces that were blocking the path.

And one more thing in here. Something they must do.

They had to rescue the Valkyries. Leaving them at their current state wasn’t something a warrior of Valhalla would ignore.

Strateginya sederhana.

They would split Tiachi from his force and then destroy them one by one.

‘The fish is coming.’

Cuchulainn said and Tae Ho turned around to look with his ‘eyes of the dragon’.

[Giant king]

[Beast king Tiachi]

Red words.

Tae Ho looked at a more distant place. He looked at the direction Tiachi came running from.

&

Tiachi’s forces that were blocking the path to the Temple wasn’t small at all.

There were at least a hundred little giants and the evil spirits easily numbered ten thousand.

Even if the warriors Tae Ho was leading were the elites of the elites, it was impossible to defeat that number in an instant. In addition, they also had to rescue more than thirty Valkyries. They certainly needed additional reinforcements.

‘We are going to get caught anyways, so let’s go out boldly.’

Adenmaha, that hid herself on a cliff looking down at the base of Tiachi, remembered Tae Ho’s words and took a deep breath. She rolled her fingers and prepared to dispel the mystical magic she had prepared with Merlin.

They would strike the base head on to create chaos and the detached force Rasgrid lead would rescue the Valkyries.

Tae Ho used a new summoning rock Merlin created for this strategy. There were three of these summoning rocks and one registered being.

A signal came from afar. Adenmaha, that was glaring at the evil spirits that were gathered at the entrance of the base, rolled her fingers and completely removed the mystical magic. She made the existence that was hiding in the sky appear completely.

There was no loud sound or roar.

But the evil spirits all looked at the sky almost at the same time. The shadow that covered them made them do that. The huge existence that couldn’t be ignored forced them to do that.

The evil spirits looked at the sky with absent minded eyes. They got suppressed by the really huge existence and couldn’t even scream.

A black dragon that reached a hundred meters.

That dragon fluttered its wings. A huge wind blew in the ground and poison was spread widely along the wind. The evil spirits that breathed in the poison unconsciously screamed and collapsed.

And it finally descended. The black and huge dragon landed down on the ground roughly. The countless evil spirits that were below it got crushed just by it landing in the ground.

There was still no roar but complete silence covered the base. The ones that barely squeezed out their voice were the giants.

Scream, surprise, loud voices and displeasure.

All kind of voices were heard in the base and Hraesvelg, that was looking at all of that while standing on the head of the black dragon, clicked his tongue.

“How unsightly.”

They have left their real bodies in Midgard. It was to hide their existence that would become the trump card against the magician king.

Actually, not even their essences were going to come but a reason appeared that they had to stand on the battlefield.

“What do we have to do now?”

Nidhogg asked Hraesvelg in the heart room. It was really ironical that the voice of a cute woman was heard from the dragon that emanated an overwhelming pressure but Hraesvelg didn’t lose his composure.

He let out a roar towards the giants and evil spirits that were in the base before he gave the next order to Nidhogg.

He, that had the clearest eye even in the highest branch, knew what the Valkyries that were deep in the base suffering just as if they were right in front of his eyes.

“Lowly beings! Saya akan membunuhmu!"

A loud yell shook the sky and the ground and the thousands of evil spirits trembled at that. Hraesvelg felt proud at that and tried to say something. But Nidhogg’s bewildered voice came out a bit quicker.

“Hraesvelg! Tae Ho master said that you can’t say your name……Ah!”

Nidhogg hurriedly covered her mouth but it was too late. It was because the black dragon covering its mouth was really a strange scene and couldn’t cover Nidhogg’s words.

Hraesvelg.

Most of them didn’t know him and there were few that had heard it as Nidhogg’s voice was low. But some of them heard it clearly. Their terrified expressions was proof of that.

Hraesvelg, that checked the expressions of the giants with his clear eyes, closed his eyes. He wanted to go somewhere and lament himself but he suppressed his feelings and then spoke to Nidhogg that didn’t know what to do while she shrunk her shoulders.

“It doesn’t matter. We just have to get rid of everyone in this place.”

If they eliminated everyone that had heard it, the secret would be protected.

“Oh, that’s the case?”

“Yes, it is.”

Hraesvelg answered to Nidhogg’s shy question and then looked down at the battlefield with his exalted eyes. He glared at them, that were preparing to flee or fight, and ordered Nidhogg.

“Nidhogg! Gulungan!"

Because that was much better than trying to fight sloppily.

"Iya nih! Aku akan!"

Nidhogg answered freshly and started to roll without hesitation.

The movements of a black dragon that reached a hundred meters and covered its body with poison.

It was enough with that.

Hell spread out on the battlefield.

< Episode 42 – Great counter attack (3) > Akhir

=====

The giants and evil spirits couldn’t react easily.

The existence of the black dragon rolling on the battlefield was a nightmare itself.

The ground shook as if an earthquake was hitting. The huge and on top of that fast dragon rolling on the ground resembled a hail. It wasn’t possible to dodge it even though you knew it was coming.

It was the same for the poison covering the dragon. The poison that got spread left traces where the dragon passed by. The evil spirits that barely managed to dodge the attack of the rolling dragon vomited blood in the poison and collapsed.

The enraged evil spirits and giants threw several throwing weapons but it was pointless. The black dragon was a hundred meters big and the thickness of its scales was also unimaginable. In addition, a defensive effect was added because of its rolling motion so mere throwing weapons couldn’t leave even a scratch.

Choosing to get on top of it also wasn’t an option. How were you supposed to get on it when it rolled without stop?

The evil spirits fell completely in a panicked state compared to the giants, that were thinking up of ways to fight back. The ones that got swept by the dragon fear unintentionally by Nidhogg just fled and kept fleeing.

Adenmaha, that saw all of that from a distance, spread her mouth with a dumbfounded face.

“She’s really rolling.”

Adenmaha thought of when she was rolling in the Winter tree forest but then shook her head. The scale was different from that time.

‘She has already rolled before.’

It didn’t seem like she was doing it for the first time looking at how she rolled. It seemed like she had quite the experience.

Well, didn’t Tae Ho also tell Adenmaha to roll without hesitation? In one side, it was more effective than fighting with traditional methods.

Poison spread in the battlefield naturally. The evil spirits couldn’t escape properly because of the ground shaking due to the roll and no openings could be seen on the dragon.

The owner of Adenmaha indeed.

The one sided roll was the best fighting method the current Nidhogg could come up with currently.

But her distorted admiration due to being in love also lasted for a moment. She thought of a fact suddenly.

‘But why did Hraesvelg come with her if she was going to do that?’

If she was going to roll anyways, was Hraesvelg’s command really necessary?

Adenmaha’s doubt was logical but Hraesvelg would have felt depressed.

Hraesvelg, that was located on the head of the rolling dragon, was moving busily. There was no need to move his feet as he was standing on air but the movement of the dragon was faster than he had imagined so he couldn’t stay still for a moment.

In addition, Hraesvelg was already performing greatly in an invisible way. It was because he was telling the direction Nidhogg should roll to as there was a high probability she didn’t know where to roll and did something else.

Everytime Hraesvelg swung his arm, the sleeves of his arms fluttered at the wind. The white feathers that got fired at the same time pierced the forehead of the important ones among the giants.

The ones holding flags, the commanders, the ones fighting valiantly and the especially strong guys.

But of course, it was hard to defeat a giant with only one feather but Hraesvelg didn’t mind too much. He just had to hit them with several feathers and if that didn’t work either he just had to obstruct their movement.

‘The protagonist of this battle is Nidhogg.’

Hraesvelg was a hidden supporter. If Nidhogg was the main dish served in a luxurious dish, Hraesvelg was the side dishes.

‘Fight Nidhogg. My old ene……fight anyways.’

He erased the words he couldn’t finish and cheered her. Nidhogg’s voice was heard right then.

“H, Hraesvelg. I’m diz….dizzy.”

Compared to when Tae Ho controlled her, she was sharing all her senses with the black dragon all by herself.

The heart room itself didn’t spin as it was floating in a deep place of the dragon’s body but there was no way to dodge the dizziness as she was sharing the spinning motion mentally.

Hraesvelg didn’t ponder at Nidhogg’s plead. He spoke with a blunt voice.

“Endure it and roll.”

As they couldn’t stop now.

“Bleeeergh.”

Nidhogg let out a suffering voice but he ignored it and this decision of Hraesvelg rather brought a good effect.

The black dragon started to vomit at the same time as Nidhogg. A dense liquid that couldn’t be compared to the poison until now covered the battlefield.

&

“Th, they are doing well.”

Rasgrid saw the black dragon shaking the battlefield from afar and said with a forced calmed voice. Reginleif, that was next to her, pretended to laugh magnanimously.

“ANyways, let’s go. We have to hurry.”

The one leading the rescuing troop was Rasgrid. Reginleif and Gandur were also included in that group and a dozen intermediate warriors followed her back.

As the warriors of Ullr’s legion and Gandur covered themselves with a cloak to disguise themselves and started to cross the battlefield with the stealth blessing, the evil spirits and giants couldn’t even notice them.

In the first place, they were entirely focused on the dragon.

Rasgrid didnt’t get excited as expected of her nickname as the ice queen. She rather became calmer the deeper she went.

She thought while running. She only knew that the Valkyries were trapped deep in the battlefield, she didn’t know in what state they were at.

The place Tiachi’s army was residing at was originally a fortress of Valhalla. Could they be using the destroyed fortress as a prison? Or did they make a sort of net and gathered all the Valkyries?

There were thirty Valkyries that got caught based on Kaldea’s words. Because of that Rasgrid determined herself.

Perhaps, half of them would be already dead. There was the possibility they got executed or got hung up.

Rasgrid imagined that. Just imagining it made her suffer but she still thought of it to not get taken aback when she faced it for real.

And when they reached the place the Valkyries were imprisoned, Rasgrid ended up freezing at the scene she never imagined.

"Rasgrid."

Gandur, that was always energetic and playful, said in a low voice. She, that was a shieldmaiden compared to Rasgrid and Reginleif, had expected the scene she was looking at to some extent. But of course, it was crueler to what she had imagined but still, she was able to maintain her reason because of that.

“Our objective isn’t to kill them or sweep them all up. Our objective is to rescue our sisters.”

Nidhogg was performing greatly but there were still a lot of evil spirits and giants. If they wanted to safely get away with the thirty Valkyries, they had to turn their eyes away at the rage for a moment and focus on escaping.

Rasgrid turned to look at Gandur. Her blue eyes that were usually calm were shaking with rage and grief. Gandur faced her eyes fixedly and said.

“He will take revenge for us. You believe in him, right? So we should do what we have to do.”

The Beast king Tiachi, that was probably the one that had created this scene.

The one that would face him. The one that would execute the revenge of the Valkyries.

Rasgrid menutup matanya. When she took a breath and opened her eyes again, her eyes had regained its usual light.

Gandur smirked. She lightly hit Rasgrid’s chest and then hit her own chest.

"Untuk Asgard dan sembilan wilayah."

"Untuk Asgard dan sembilan wilayah."

Reginleif and the warriors also regained their composure. Gandur glared at the evil spirits and little giants that were near the Valkyries that were hung up.

“For Idun’s warrior.”

Rasgrid mumbled. She charged forward after taking a breath and Gandur and the warriors followed her back.

&

The Beast king Tiachi stopped at some point. The loud sound that was heard behind him from far away made him stop.

There was a fuss in the direction of the base. He couldn’t see clearly because of the trees in the forest but it wasn’t something normal looking at the earth that was shaking all the way where he was.

Something happened in the base.

Tiachi first turned to look at Itaka but he was also as bewildered as he was. The little giants that were by his side simply waited for his orders instead of running about in confusion.

Tiachi saw the clear bloodstains the Valkyrie left behind but she was now looking at him with eyes that were different from before while staggering.

Trap. Bait.

Tiachi smiled at the words that popped in his head. It was a smile mixed with cruelty and indignation.

“Itaka, I’m returning to the base. You go catch that bitch.”

Itaka frowned at the short order but he assented. He had to follow the orders as it came from his king. In addition, it wasn’t that the king was going to catch her himself but that he was going to return to the base so it wasn’t much of a problem.

"Aku akan melakukannya."

Itaka made an eye gesture to some of the underlings that were next to him.

He and those underlings stepped up and Tiachi turned around with the remaining ones.

But right at that moment, an arrow of light pierced the heads and shoulders of the giants.

Three giants fell down. Itaka got surprised and turned around and Tiachi, that grabbed the arrow flying straight towards his head, turned to look at the direction the arrow came flying from.

"Hai."

The stealth blessing Siri was using broke. The warriors of Valhalla that appeared suddenly form the bushes attacked Itaka and the little giants.

Itaka put a defensive stance reflexively. Bracky, that appeared the first, concentrated only in one thing instead of attacking over his guard.

Creating more distance between him and Tiachi. Make him get farther from the battlefield.

Bracky tore a special scroll of Merlin and the earth started to twitch. Walls started to surge up and then pushed the ones that were at the side of Tiachi.

Tiachi opened his eyes widely and Siri headed to the other little giants instead of aiming for him. It was the same for the five warriors of Valhalla that charged along Siri and Bracky. They all tore one scroll each and generated changes in the ground.

Tiachi knew what the warriors were aiming for and that’s why he laughed in an absurd way. He just waited for his opponent instead of charging towards the warriors of Valhalla.

“You are saying that you want to face me alone?”

Tiachi looked at the one that finally appeared and laughed.

Tiachi was the Beast king. One of the giant kings of Jotunheim.

“Arrogant bastard.”

Tiachi glared at his opponent and his opponent also did the same. He faced Tiachi’s anger head on.

Tae Ho heard Hrist’s story from Kaldea. What she saw was merely a part of what Hrist had suffered but it was enough with that.

Odin had said.

That the ones hoping for destruction didn’t wish a natural decay.

They actively wished the destruction of the world.

And they lived for that. They were existences that solely lived for that purpose.

The essence of the ones wanting to maintain and the ones wanting to destroy the world was different because of that way of thinking. Because of that, it was impossible to perfectly understand one side.

But Tae Ho could somewhat feel it the moment he faced Tiachi. He could know even without using the ‘eyes of the dragon’.

Tiachi was one that hoped for the destruction of the world.

He enjoyed the scene when hope got destroyed and it became despair. Stepping and dirtying a noble way of thinking gave him pleasure.

He was a wielder of a black desire that got obsessed on the process rather than the results.

Tae Ho thought of the Tyrant Bress. The fomoires that were heated up about conquering and dominating. They were the same but different at the same time. Tiachi’s desire was much darker and dirtier than Bress’s.

[Saga: Idun’s warrior]

The golden power of a God surged up from Tae Ho’s body and a conspicuous color showed in Tiachi’s eyes. It was a reaction he showed when he discovered a prey.

Tae Ho didn’t stop there. He gripped Caliburn and activated more sagas.

[Saga: The warrior that had a Valkyrie meet him]

[Saga: His pocket is connected to a treasure vault]

Fake Valkyries appeared..

The fake Heda and the fake Adenmaha stood next to Tae Ho and followed by them the fake Rasgrid, Reginleif, Gandur, Ingrid and even Scathach appeared.

Tiachi put a smile at the sudden appearance of the Valkyries. He even snickered because the number of preys had increased.

The Valkyries grabbed the weapons that appeared in the air and stepped up.

[Saga: The legendary pro gamer]

The fake Heda, that had the highest completion rate, became the core. The other fake Valkyries got synchronized to Heda as the core and then, the auras they were emanating started to change one by one.

Tiachi flinched at that moment but it wasn’t the end yet.

[Saga: King of Camelot]

The glory of Camelot got fired from the blades of Caliburn.

He added a new strength to the weapons of the knights of the round table the Valkyries were holding.

Tae Ho took a step and the Valkyries did the same.

The smile disappeared from Tiachi’s face. Tae Ho saw him take a battle stance and said in a low voice.

‘There’s one thing I learned for sure in the fight against Hraesvelg-nim.’

'Apa itu?'

‘There’s no business with a deficient ship.’

‘That’s so true.’

Cuchulainn agreed. AT that moment, the fake Heda howled and charged. The other Valkyries followed her back.

7 Valkyries and Idun’s warrior.

Tae Ho raised his sword.

< Episode 42 – Great counter attack (4) > Akhir

=====

‘Facing one people with many isn’t as easy as you think.’

Those were Ragnar’s words. And Cuchulainn and Tae Ho agreed to that.

When assuming that two people that have the same battle power attack one enemy from both sides, what will happen with the total battle power of those two people?

It was easy to think that it will become 1 + 1 but reality wasn’t like that.

If the opponent wasn’t much bigger than you, you didn’t get much chances that several people could target the opponent at once. In addition, there were also cases that they obstructed each other due to their own attacks.

The most important thing in an attack from several parties, was their coordination. Based on how well they worked together, the addition of their battle power could become 2 or could become lower than 1.

Eight targets attacking one enemy was too excessive and because of that the ones that could attack at the same time were merely four.

And that was only when the opponent was completely open. If one direction was restricted, then the number of people reduced even more.

Tiachi made a quick decision the moment the seven Valkyries charged forward. They were inside a forest but there weren’t that many trees near them. They were in a situation that they could surround him easily.

Tiachi kicked the ground with strength and surged up. Jumping to the air enabled to you dodge the immediate attacks but restricted your movements so it was easy to become an open target.

But TIachi also had his own thoughts. The moment he spread his arms, his two arms became huge wings of an eagle.

That was the reason why Tiachi got called as the Beast king.

He, that was the best hunter among the giants, was also the best transformer. He could transform to almost every beast and could also transform a part of his body like he was doing right now.

Tiachi fluttered his wings after transforming his arms. He wasn’t planning to flee even a little. What he was thinking was attacking as a hunter bird catching its prey. He was planning to break the Valkyries that were looking at the sky dumbfoundedly.

But he realized that something was wrong the moment he finished his first stroke of his wing.

The Valkyries weren’t looking at the sky with dumbfounded expressions. When he looked down at the ground, several Valkyries were already surging up to the sky.

Four Valkyries became the foothold for Tae Ho and the remaining three Valkyries. They didn’t exchange glances and divided their roles in an instant.

The fake Heda got on the hands the fake Gandur gathered and the Gandur sent Heda flying up to the sky with all her strength. It was the same for the other Valkyries.

Tiachi hurriedly twisted his body. The sword of Heda pierced the space Tiachi had been and the fake Scathach surged from the shoulders of the fake Adenmaha and changed her direction once again. She stabbed towards Tiachi with her spear so he could twist his body once again desperately.

Tiachi rolled his eyes. He transformed his two arms into the arms of a rhinoceros, that had thick and rough leather, without even having time to curse out. Tae Ho, that had been waiting for the perfect moment, slashed the arms Tiachi had gathered.

His sword cut him really deeply. His skin got ripped and blood spluttered. Tiachi gritted his teeth and crashed down. Four of the fake Valkyries were already formed in a circle in the point that was estimated Tiachi would fall.

It was an unbelievably linked play. How did they work so well together without even glancing at each other!

Tiachi transformed into a big armadillo and made his body round. He then started to spin in that state and maximized his attack.

He wouldn’t simply crash down but rather strike back.

It was a desperate measure but quite excellent. The strong magical power Tiachi had as a magician king made his speed and spinning power much stronger. The same power of a meteor strike would be generated from his attack.

Tae Ho embraced Heda from her waist and kicked the air. Scathach and Adenmaha changed their bodies in the air to control their descending point and the four Valkyries that were in the ground dodged from the estimated fallign point of Tiachi.

Bang!

Tiachi hit the ground. The shockwave swept the surroundings and the ground shook and dust surged up.

It was a plentily strong attack although he failed in damaging the Valkyries but Tiachi still couldn’t understand. The movements of the Valkyries were just too well coordinated this time too.

As soon as he unfolded his body and transformed back into a giant king, the Valkyries started to pour out sharp attacks.

‘This crazy!’

Curses came out by its own. The attack of the Valkyries was as smooth as flowing water. They didn’t just stop at stabbing from the sides but they filled the openings of each other. It seemed like they were originally one body.

But he was still the giant king. Tiachi released a great amount of magic power in an instant and made a big move. It was to crush the Valkyries with his attack and cut the flow of the attacks.

And his intention was quite right. The huge magic power he released by swinging his fist completely crushed the fake Reginleif that was coming from the front. She disappeared without even being able to scream.

But the remaining three didn’t get swept at the aftershock. The moment the fake Reginleif got hit at the magical attack, Rasgrid and Gandur executed low attacks almost by lying on the ground. Their swords aiming for Tiachi’s ankle were just like snakes.

Tiachi hurriedly kicked Gandur but he wasn’t able to do anything to Rasgrid’s attack. He concentrated magic power in his leg hurriedly but he lacked time. In addition, there was something else that was terrible.

The attacks of the Valkyries were too strong.

The weapons that got strengthened by the Glory of Camelot displayed the same power as when it was wielded by the knights of the round table. The sword of the knight of truth Agravain which Rasgrid swung tore Tiachi’s ankle along his magic power.

Tiachi’s posture broke but he was still a renowned giant king. He transformed into a big animal in that state and tried to crush Rasgrid and Gandur together.

But it only ended in an attempt this time.

Ingrid grabbed Gandur by her waist and kicked the ground. Rasgrid, that had succeeded in her attack, also kicked the ground and got out of Tiachi’s range.

And Scathach filled that empty space when she descended from the sky. The other Valkyries overwhelmed Tiachi in an instant with their spearmanship.

'Hei! Why is her completion rate so high!’

Cuchulainn got angry. It was because the movements of the fake Scathach were too good.

Just when did he increase the completion rate by that much?

Tae Ho answered calmly at Cuchulainn’s rage. She made Heda join in the attack with Scathach and talked back quickly.

‘I just synchronized them?!’

The seven fake Valkyries were all synchronized to the fake Heda as the core. Because of that, they could greatly increase their completion rate although not as much as Heda.

The effects of the synchronization didn’t end there.

The reason the seven of them could move as if they were one was also because of that. They could share their thoughts without needing to glance so it was an obvious they could do that much.

In addition, Tae Ho’s controlling was added to this. But there was no need to control them from start to end like he did with Nidhogg.

The Valkyries moved autonomously and Tae Ho just gave a strategic order in the decisive time.

And this kind of battle was too familiar for Tae Ho.

‘I feel like doing a boss raid.’

The team play in Dark Age.

The fake Valkyries that had dodged the attack also joined Scathach and Heda in the attack. Tiachi’s limbs became more confusing and because of that more attacks started to land in him.

‘Items boosting is really the best.’

The second fact.

The individual battle power of each Valkyrie was merely at the intermediate rank, excluding Heda and Scathach. But their attack power was greatly surpassing that of normal intermediate ranked warriors.

Tiachi couldn’t overlook any attack at all. He excelled in strength and speed but he was a level lower in durability due to his small body.

Babang!

Ledakan keras terdengar di konsesi. Those were the sounds made when Rasgrid and Gandur disappeared.

Tiachi poured out attacks while having become a bloody mess. He received Scathach’s attacks with his body and destroyed Ingrid by hitting her in her head.

A smile stained with accomplishment and pain was drawn in Tiachi’s face. He looked at Tae Ho instead of looking at Scathach and Heda.

Tae Ho, that was looking at the Valkyries attacking Tiachi from a side, answered Tiachi’s nasty smile with the same smile.

Scathach twisted her spear. Tiachi let out a groan at that and swung his arm after transforming it into snakes. He bit off her neck to make blood flow out and then transformed into several beasts to heal his wounds.

Heda didn’t charge towards Tiachi while Scathach disappeared. She rather fell back and created some distance.

It wasn’t because Tae Ho treasured the fake Heda. The reason they did that was to grab Tiachi’s attention and to make an opening so that Adenmaha was able to butt in.

The body of the fake Adenmaha was the same as the original’s. She was proficient in magic but couldn’t fight well with weapons. That was the reason she didn’t participate in the attack until now and just looked from the back.

The sword of the knight of the round table Kay was given to her but she didn’t swing it. She was empty handed as she had given it back to Tae HO beforehand.

Adenmaha embraced Tiachi the moment Heda fell back.

Tiachi got bewildered. It was because there was no strength behind her attack.

Was she planning to seal his movements at least for a moment?

Tiachi didn’t think for long. Whatever the motive was, he just had to shake her off.

Tetapi pada saat itu.

The moment Tiachi put strength in his arms, Tae Ho activated his saga.

[Saga: Owner of frost]

The fake Adenmaha transformed into the frost white dragon Javier.

It wasn’t to fire her specialty, the ice breath. Also not to attack him with her sharp claws and fangs.

Just crushing him down.

Sitting on him with her overwhelming size.

But Tiachi was still a giant king. He didn’t just let it hit him. Tiachi was already moving even before Adenmaha finished her transformation. He executed an attack in the middle of her transformation and opened up a path.

Kguaaang!

A weird sound exploded. The lower body of the frost dragon that got separated from its upper body swept the surroundings. Tiachi, that barely managed to cut Adenmaha’s waist surged up.

It was like Tae Ho had expected.

"Halo sekali lagi?"

Heda butted her face in front of Tiachi.

Her smile was as beautiful as the smile the real Heda showed when she went to meet Tae Ho and was as scary as when she said ‘so that was the case’.

Heda embraced Tiachi.

Tiachi, that had just surged up, couldn’t do anything towards Heda. He got grabbed helplessly in the air.

And he understood.

The plan.

Everything was set up. The scene he saw beyond Heda’s head explained him everything.

‘Dog like bastard.’

To embrace Heda even if she was a fake.

Tae Ho surged up to the sky and glared at Tiachi with overwhelming eyes. Cuchulainn made fun of him saying that he was the one that ordered her to do that but he was also putting a cold smile.

The last attack Tae Ho prepared.

The finishing attack using the fake Valkyries.

Gae Bolg, that was concentrating strength when it landed down, released a strong aura. The spear of death started to fly towards Tiachi.

The fake Heda became smoke and disappeared. The spear of death tore the remains and passed by. It was a last attack that had no ways to dodge.

“Fuck.”

Tiachi cursed out and that became his last words.

Gae Bolg pierced Tiachi’s chest. It passed through his heart and then spread the curse of death through his entire body.

Tiachi didn’t die instantly. It was because the death of Gae Bolg didn’t let him die a clean death. An indescribable pain crushed Tiachi’s body and mind.

Gae Bolg got stuck in the ground when it passed through Tiachi. The howl left by his limbs started to transform into a cracked sculpture and then started to break down.

Tae Ho menarik napas dalam-dalam. He looked down at Tiachi with cold eyes instead of retrieving Gae Bolg.

He opened his mouth but couldn’t form a word. He broke down completely with his scream filled with malice.

And at that moment, an overwhelming amount of runes surged up from his remains. The amount was so big it was seen as a pillar of light.

It was different to when he defeated Hrumbak with Nidhogg. This time, he completely defeated him only with his strength and a perfectly made plan.

A great amount of runes entered his body. Although Tiachi was at a level lower than Hrumbak, he was still a giant king.

[Synchro Rate: 78%]

The 80% was right in front of his eyes and the accumulated runes made him be at the top even among the superior ranked warriors.

Tae Ho retrieved Gae Bolg. He also went to retrieve the weapons of the knights of the round table which the Valkyries dropped instead of facing the remaining little giants looking at him as they got surprised and stopped fighting.

‘It ended.’

Bracky’s hammer crushed Itaka’s head the moment Cuchulainn spoke.

"Aku bekerja keras. Rolled a lot. Dizzy……”

Nidhogg mumbled with a pale face. Hraesvelg clicked his tongue because he didn’t like her acting that way but he still extended his arm to support her because he did feel a bit sorry for her.

Pertempuran telah berakhir.

They couldn’t completely exterminate the giants and evil spirits but could defeat quite a lot of them. The ones that had survived were the ones that couldn’t hear Hraesvelg’s name.

The rescuing team had successfully rescued all of the Valkyries. They were all exhausted because of the terrible hardships they had faced. But they were still Valkyries. They didn’t forget to thank the ones that had saved them.

The warriors and the Valkyries that had regained their composure hid themselves in a secluded place.

The ones that advanced to the path going to the Temple was only a minority.

“I’m grateful to you in many ways.”

Kaldea stood in the gate leading to the Temple that had been generated naturally by the system of Yggdrasil and spoke while turning around. Her golden hair that was tied up lapped as if it was her tail.

They had defeated Tiachi but it was merely the start.

Kaldea had to go the Temple as they had originally planned.

"Hati-hati."

Tae Ho, that had escorted her to the gate, spoke with courtesy but with sincerity.

“You certainly are simple and honest.”

Kaldea giggled as if something was fun about that and then spread her arms. Tae Ho hesitated for a moment as he understood her meaning but still hugged her in the end and shared their warmth.

“I’m really grateful. I knew that you would become a big shot but I didn’t know that you would become one this fast and such a big figure. Heda’s eyes are also quite something.”

She giggled once more and then slightly pushed Tae Ho. She then looked up at him and then put playful eyes. She gave him the best blessing in that state.

“It’s not much but it’s still a gift. The completion rate would increase now right? I will keep it as a secret to Heda.”

Kaldea winked while licking her lips. Cuchulainn laughed at that and Tae Ho put an awkward smile at the guilt he felt.

“I will go for real now. Let’s meet later for sure.”

“Yes, go.”

"Kanan."

Kaldea bid her farewell brightly until the end and took a deep breath. She had faced almost every kind of things as a Valkyrie but it was the first time she moved to another world. She kept feeling her heartbeat.

‘It’s not because of the blessing.’

Kaldea pressed  her chest tightly to calm herself and fixed her expression. She erased her playfulness and expressed etiquette to the commander of Idun as a Valkyrie of Valhalla.

"Untuk Asgard dan sembilan wilayah."

"Untuk Asgard dan sembilan wilayah."

Kaldea turned around. She then entered the gate that connected to the Temple.

&

The real world tree, the System of Yggdrasil, was connected with Asgard as the center and the other nine realms but it wasn’t they only system that completely passed through all the ten worlds.

Kaldea barely got out of the path of the System of Yggdrasil that was filled with white light and stood in front of a road that she hadn’t experienced until now.

It was similar to the System of Yggdrasil but different at the same time. A system that could be said to be siblings.

The path connected to the Temple was beautiful.

The cherry blossom trees that were at the sides of the path were big and had a nice fragrance. The cherry blossom flowers that fluttered along the wind landed down on the ground as if dancing.

“Wow……..”

Kaldea let out an exclamation unconsciously and her cheeks flushed.

And the one that looked at that below a tree let out a laugh. It wasn’t a laugh that ridiculed her but it was the same kind as Kaldea’s exclamation. It was a laughter that came out unconsciously when you say something beautiful and nice.

Kaldea hurriedly turned to look at the direction the laughter was heard at. There was a man with a big build that was covering his face with a bamboo rain hat. It seemed like he was a member that belonged to the Temple that he was wearing a korean style traditional jacket and pants. He was holding a big weapon in his shoulders but it was a kind you couldn’t see in Valhalla.

The most similar thing to it was a trident but the weapon of the man was too different to the basic parts of a spear. The part of the tip of the spear wasn’t a sharp blade but a weird object that was bent and had ten forks.

If the one looking at him wasn’t a warrior but a farmer, they would have realized that the thing the man was holding was a farming tool instead of a weapon but Kaldea was a warrior. That was why she tilted her head a few times and then erased her doubts about the weapon. It was because she had to first express etiquette with the one she had met.

“I’m Valkyrie Kaldea of Hermod’s legion. Do you belong to the Temple?”

Kaldea hit her chest twice and expressed the etiquette of Asgard. The man flinched at the word Valkyrie and then stood up hurriedly and took off and threw his bamboo hat.

And then Kaldea was the one that flinched unavoidably. It was because the man didn’t have the head of a human but that of a pig.

But Kaldea hid her surprise and looked up at the man with her green eyes. The man smirked as if he liked that Kaldea didn’t shake greatly and then wrapped his right hand with his left one as the etiquette of the Temple followed.

“I’m the morning lion Cho Hakkai. The ones close to me call me Juh Pal Gye.” (TL: Or Zhu Bajie.)

The former enemy of the thousand poles.

The disciple of the Samjang (TL: Or Tripitakadhara) Juh Pal Gye extended his hand to Kaldea.
