Valhalla Saga

&

The ferry arrived at the squadron quarters of Idun in the middle of a windy wind. Heda, who was studying Taeho the whole time, said with a cheerful voice.

“After Idun, let's have something delicious for dinner. Let me show you how it's done. ”

“It's okay, it's okay. That's what life is about. ”

After Taeho's favorable eyes, Heda grinned helplessly and quickly secured the ferry to the waterfront.

Taeho, who was looking at him quietly, suddenly raised his head and looked away.

‘By the way, if it's Ulr Squad · · Roll is also on leave? ’

I doubted how many lower ranking warriors there would be in the Ulr army, but considering Heda's previous teammates, it was also likely that the Rolls would have been summoned on this expedition.

‘That's better. ’

I wasn't going to die alone. No, it's not that. I had a partner to work with.

After all, Taeho was still feeling better. He asked Heda, who was still looking into this side.

“Hey, Heda. Do you have time to learn Rune Magic? ”

Obviously, we talked about learning Rune Magic when we got back to the army the last time we visited. He said he needed procedures and rituals, but I was wondering if he could do it in one night.

Heda smiled brightly, saying whether Taeho's voice had become brighter, or whether the topic had changed.

“Only the basics will work this time, so it's quite possible. Let's have dinner later and have a magic rune class together. ”

When I think about it, my time with Heda was almost always full of classes.

‘A rather passionate teacher. ’

I've always had class time when visiting.

While he nods alone, Heda speaks in a quick tone as if he was afraid of losing his energy again.

“Well, let's go see Idun first. ”

Like the first visit, Taeho headed to the temple. It was the same with Heda, who said he would wait at the entrance.

‘I'm not nervous. ’

After all, it was a meeting with God. Even now, when I close my eyes, I think of things like the beauty, mystery, and holy glow that is hard to express.

‘You won't blame me for calling me Heda instead of Idun. ’

Taeho, with a slight stiffness in the corner, vomits faintly into the temple. Every step of the way, the temple darkens, and within it is a vast plain with open golden apples.

“My warrior Tahoe. ”

From top to bottom, the voice from the sky stayed in my ears. He reflexively kneels in place. I bowed my head when no one asked me to.

The goddess of youth and life.

“Raise your head. ”

It was the voice of Idun as if he were whispering. Taeho slowly raises his head and faces Ithun, who is surrounded by a golden glow.

I didn't see his face again. All I could see was the golden luminosity and the beautiful line drawn by the body wrapped in a white and heavenly cloth.

But this was enough. Taeho felt the beauty and holiness of Idun again.

Idun suddenly smiled and said, facing Taeho's admired gaze.

“Tae Ho the Warrior, they call him the Valkyrie Rider, right? ”

Taejo flinches at the sudden attack. Have rumors spread to the New Testament?

‘Of course not, of course not. Only Idun would know that. ’

Idun continued to say while trying to deny it.

“I hear you did a great job. Tae Ho, you are my pride. ”

“Thank you."

It was a compliment directly from Idun, one of the real gods of the world. Even though he was from a different world, Hana Taeho could also feel satisfied.

When Taeho shows the example again, Idun glances down at Taeho for a moment and asks with a worried voice.

“But Tae Ho, my warrior. You don't look so energetic. Did something happen? ”

“No, nothing. ”

Something happened, but I didn't want to lose my job. It wasn't even Iran who called the order in the first place.

"I can't say I'm depressed because I got fired from vacation. ’

Taeho hides his heart and keeps his mouth shut, and Yi Dun said instead of digging.

“Tell Heda if you need anything. She'll take care of you. ”

“You're already doing very well. ”

“Yes, Heda speaks very highly of you. ”

After he finished speaking with a fresh smile, he stepped forward and approached Taeho. He reached out his hand and said.

“I can't send my proud warrior empty-handed. I will grant you a stronger blessing. Let me close my eyes for a moment. ”

Taeho closes his eyes as instructed. Then, the sacred golden light wrapped around Taeho's body. Taeho felt the blessings of Idun grow stronger.

When Taeho slowly opened his eyes, Ithun turned around and said, turning back to where he had originally stood.

“When I return from the next expedition, I will unload the treasure. It's something you don't want. ”

“The treasure I · · · · want? ”

“Yes, it's very good. ”

Idun smiles once more.

“Warrior Tahoe, my pride. May glory be with you on your journey. ”

The world is filled with golden light. And then the darkness came back.

“Ha.”

Taeho, who secretly vomited for a long time, got up and left the temple. As I looked around for a moment, I took a quick walk.

“How did you meet? ”

“Yes.”

“Feeling better? ”

“It's okay, it's okay. ”

It wasn't empty, but it was fine now. It wasn't Heda's fault in the first place.

But Heda apologized again.

“But I'm sorry, I don't know if it'll work, but I'll protest. ”

“Don't overdo it. ”

The complaint against the senior institution was more than satisfactory to return.

Heda treated Taeho with a feast of skill as promised. It was much better than the food I had at the banquet during the day, so Taeho was also very satisfied.

And between dinner and the deep night. Heda sits across from Taeho, shirtless on a large magic jewel painted in front of her.

The reason for taking off Taeho's top was simple when the night air was cold.

“The easiest way to use rune magic is to carve the runes themselves into your body. ”

“Like a tattoo?”

“Yes, we call it imprinting. But it's not recommended because there are side effects as easily as it can be used. It's usually used by warriors who want to learn only two runes at a time. ”

Heda pauses and gazes at Taejo quietly. It was like asking Taeho to deduce the reason.

“Is there a limit to the magic of a rune that can be engraved? Strong rune magic can only be engraved on the bodies of strong warriors. ”

He nods as he talks about Taeho's quick rise.

“Yes, that's one of the reasons why we don't recommend imprinting. The body of a weak warrior can only be engraved with weak rune magic. I can't erase the brand easily, but I guess I'll have a hard time getting stronger later, right? ”

“I suppose so.”

Magic that was useful when you were a lower warrior can be useless when you were a higher warrior. Furthermore, if there was not enough room for a new imprint because of the engraving, it was truly a waste.

Nevertheless, Heda tried to imprint on Taeho's body. Of course, it was a special imprint, not a common imprint.

“What I'm going to teach you is a temporary imprint. You'll need more runes than a brand, but you can always undo them. You can retrieve a few runes that have been used. ”

He placed a transparent membrane made of runes on the skin and engraved an imprint on it.

"Sticker tattoo. ’

Taeho nodded, and Heda took a deep breath and said with a serious face.

“There are three types of temporary engravings for this time. I'm gonna carve it into your chest, your back and your left arm, respectively. ”

Speaking of which, Heda pulls out a pen made of large crow feathers. The other hand holds an ink can, filled with ink made of melted Tahoe's runes.

“Let's get started, then. Don't move, it's a big deal if you draw it wrong. ”

Heda, who was serious, sat down and pulled his butt close to Taejo, while Taejo swallowed dry saliva.

The sound of a rectangle starts from Taeho's chest.

&

The day after Odin's Day, Thor's Day.

A familiar hall appears in front of Taejo, who crosses through the door of the room while being escorted by Heda.

The very hall from which the Black Fortress expedition began.

The sight of a vast empty hole that could fit thousands of people caused a desolate feeling on its own. However, Taeho was able to smile with courage.

“Roll!”

There were about ten people in the corner of the hall, because some of them didn't want to meet today.

“I'm just crying. ”

Roll says with a frowning face, and the nearby lower warriors smile with a half-sympathetic smile and the other half full of joy. Somehow Siri seemed quite enjoyable.

With a smile on his face, Siri introduced Taejo to the other warriors.

“This is the warrior Tae Ho I was talking about. A warrior who has just become a lesser warrior, but is very skilled. Don't underestimate me. ”

“Oh, are you the Valkyrie Warrior? ”

“I'm familiar with the rumors. ”

“The Valkyries are coming to visit, aren't they? ”

The Ulr army's warriors were generally favorable to Taejo. However, he had no choice but to look back at Siri.

“Hey, Siri? ”

“I've heard stories of taking down giants. ”

When Syria made small excuses, the warriors came and laughed.

‘They're not all ordinary. ’

Looking at the dragon's eyes, the sheep of runes accumulated were unusual. The fewest accumulate nearly twice the amount of rolls.

Am I halfway there? ’

The amount of runes that had not been properly measured in the past can now be clearly seen. Surprisingly, the largest number of runes were accumulated here.

‘Maybe that's not all I saw on the last expedition. ’

I was reminded of the fighting of Sassam Siri, and I heard a beautiful voice behind my back.

“Are we all here? ”

The voice was the Valkyrie. He was wearing armor made of black wolf fur, and his big wavy brown hair was impressive.

“We're all here. This is Taeho, the warrior of this army. ”

Siri tapped her chest to pay her respects and introduced Taeho. Valkyrie, who gave him the same beating of the chest, looked back at Taejo.

“Greetings. I am Valkyrie Gandhu of the Ulr forces responsible for leading this expedition. ”

“I'm Taeho Lee.”

“I've heard rumors. I look forward to doing as rumored. ”

The grin and grinning face was as wicked as Reggie Rafe.

Taeho is afraid to ask what the rumors are. After answering properly, he takes a step back. Thankfully, instead of talking more to Taeho Gandhi, he turned to the warriors and said,

“This expedition is a small expedition involving only two such as ours and Eadu's. But don't let your guard down, as always. This expedition won't be easy. ”

“Nothing's ever easy! ”

“Isn't that too much? ”

“So you're just teasing the lesser warriors? ”

Gandhir's joking refutes as the warriors protest. The lack of formality between the Valkyries and the warriors seemed quite liberating.

“Anyway, enough jokes. I will arrive to discuss the details of the mission. Any questions?"

“Where's the freeze? ”

One of the lower warriors asks, Gandhu turns around and flicks his finger to activate the door in the room. He replied, touching the door of the space that began to spread in the air as if water was spreading.

“Svart Alphaheim.”

A land of obstinate fairies that follows endless nights.

Until now, a very dark and dark door in the Bora-Bora-Bora-Bora-Bora-Bora space welcomed warriors.
