Valhalla Saga

Chapter 11 - Fragment of the Unknown Sword

There are three hidden fountains at the root of the World Water Wigdrasil.

The Fountain of Wisdom, the Fountain of Jealousy, the Fountain of Life, Urd.

The most mysterious of the three wells, the one hidden in the deepest, was naturally Mir's spring.

The fog around the spring was thick. A giant with a hundred eyes could not see beyond the mist because it was layered on the wall.

You hear the dragon's cry from afar. It was the voice of the dark-colored dragon Needhog.

He was a vicious creature with a terrible poison that might one day envelop the world, but it's not a problem yet. I couldn't smell the honey liquor of the foggy fountain with my poisonous nose.

You hear a thump following the sound of crying. Latatosk was clearly busy commuting between the roots and branches of Wigdrasil.

He was busy climbing up Wigdrasil, remembering all of Nidhog's ridicules to tell him today. The thump grows further and further away.

Odin closes his only eyes. He crouches under the branches of the ash tree that used to hang himself, and rubs his eyes with his crude, rough hands.

He came here every day. After having a fantastic night with dozens of beautiful women, I have always come to Mir's Spring in the end and have hunkered down to wait for the result, even after fighting countless enemies on the battlefield.

On the surface of Mir's well full of honey liquor, three beautiful women shine. The three sisters who are not here, but you can see, are sitting next to each other weaving threads.

The three yellow sisters who seize the fate of the world.

The eldest of the wools clings to the end of destiny, and Verdandy, the younger, weaves the thread hard. The youngest school secretly looked at the shape of their older sisters and released the thread again.

The past seen by the wolf was fixed. Verdandy's life now held infinite possibilities.

The future of the school was not determined. It was only a possibility drawn based on the past and the present.

The three sisters seized the fate of the world. The school whispered about the future he had seen outside the sleep, and Mir's head on a wide stone read the lips. I reviewed their predictions and changed them to language that I could understand and hear.

“Ragnarok is underway. Odin, king of the foolish and wise gods who resist mortality on the day when the wolf of the world wakes up, will be in the hands of a dog as he moves forward and does not retreat. ”

Odin's insulting words do not make a move. Crow Moonin, sitting on his shoulder, also did not react like this.

Mimir continued:

“The space snake Jormungan is not dead. It will reappear before we find it, and we will share our fate with Thor. ”

It was the same story in a row. The prophecy I have heard hundreds and thousands of times has not changed this time.

“Surt's flame will burn the whole world, so the possibility of such a future is 72,700 out of 100,000. ”

The end of the world was the same. But then Odin opened his eyes.

“What did you say? ”

Mimir knows exactly where Odin pointed. Instead of asking me again or reading the wrong part again, I said it in a clear voice.

“72970 out of 100,000. ”

Odin rises from his seat. The numbers have changed. In fact, the numbers themselves have changed frequently. But it was important which way they turned.

The possibility of destruction has always been greater. Perhaps there was a moment of delay, but eventually I proceeded towards the promised destruction again.

But now, for the first time, there's been a change.

The odds are lower. Even though it's only one-hundredth of a million, it's definitely less likely than yesterday.

Odin approaches Mimir's head. You crouch in front of a wide rock and face Mir.

You hear Needhog's cry from afar. Odin raises his head and looks up at the sky. Crow fuggin approaches, piercing the fierce fog.

&

“The warrior of Idun's army, Taejo. Your work on this expedition is great. I will also tell Ulr that there will be a reward in the future.

As soon as he returned to Valhalla's hall, Valkyrie Gandhu tapped his chest, facing Tacho. Taeho, who expressed his example by beating his chest the same way, laughed and said.

“Thank you."

Taeho replied, thinking it was a light greeting, but Gandhu was different. Without Taeho, this expedition would not have succeeded. It was all thanks to Taeho that the Ulr army warriors were able to come back alive.

Because of this, Gandhu sincerely intended to ask Wong for a reward. Valhalla loved the great warriors and wanted them to be treated accordingly.

After Gandur's greetings, the warriors of the Ulr army gather for Ur Taejo. It was also Siri who greeted Taeho first.

“Take care of yourself, Commander Siri. ”

“So are you. ”

Unlike Taejo, who was completely healthier, Siri still had a sore corner of her face. But I don't think I need to worry as much as I have returned to Valhalla.

“Taeho, be careful and go back. ”

“Farewell, warrior of Idun. Next time, we'll repay you. ”

Rolls and warriors greeted and thanked each other. It was Ulr's army who accidentally had kites, but they wanted to stick together.

“Here, Taeho. Then we should go back. ”

After everyone's greetings, Heda grabs Tahoe's hand and says, as the Ulr army's warriors return under the command of Valkyrie Gandur.

Taeho nods, but suddenly he looks back at the door to Svart Alphaheim. It was because there was one person who did not come with us.

“Ragnar will be here soon. Looks like they care about the Molo family business. He said he'd take a little look around. ”

Ragnar Lothbrok. Master of Taejo, who was invited here this time.

“You said Rasgrid was sent to the Molo family? ”

“Gandur and Ulr's forces were sent to hunt the Basilisks. This investigation is also Las Grid's specialty. ”

I couldn't leave all my research to the Obsidians in the backyard of the betrayed Malo family. We haven't met in person, but according to Hedana Gandur, Odin's army, led by Rasgrid, appears to have been sent to the Molo family.

‘Las Grid.’

A few days ago, it was a Valkyrie on the same battlefield. I was glad to hear the name.

But that's when it happened. Heda looked at Taeho's face for a moment, reminiscent of his memories of the Suhae Temple, and said in a gentle tone.

“Are you sure you want to see Las Grid? ”

Somehow I felt I had to answer well.

Taeho replied with a straight face.

“Good to see you every day. ”

“You speak well. ”

Nevertheless, Heda's footsteps to the port were cheerful.

&

There were several boats anchored in the harbor. Seeing the Valkyries and warriors moving back and forth, it looks like there are a few troops leaving a small expedition, like this one from Ulr.

After getting on a modest ferry, Heda prepared to set sail, murmuring a nostril. Taeho looked at him quietly, and when his boat left the port, he opened his mouth carefully.

“Hey, Heda. I have something I'd like you to take care of. ”

“Stuff?”

Heda, who was lightly stirring the pole while standing, tilted his head once and sat down in front of Taeho, placing the pole.

“What?”

“Wait a minute.”

Taeho unscrews the pockets tied to his waist and pulls out pieces of the unknown sword.

“I found this on the body of the Basilisk who was defeated this time. I wonder if it was from the Great War. ”

It was still unknown, but it was an Epic grade item. If it was really a great war item, it was probably part of a pretty famous armor.

Unlike Taejo, who knows only one piece of North European mythology, Heda, the Valkyrie, might have discovered the sword.

“Let me take a look. ”

Heda's eyes become serious if he realizes that this is not a normal item. Heda carefully picks up a piece of the sword and starts observing with a cautious face.

And how much time has passed. When Taeho raises his head with a slightly tired face, Taeho struggles to press anxiety and ask.

“Do you know what it is? ”

I shook my head, collecting my eyebrows as if I was sorry to disappoint Heda with a rather suppressed voice.

“Sorry, I don't know. So is the magical power that the handle itself feels · · · Though it seems unusual, it doesn't feel like this is due to the aftermath when it was destroyed. ”

“Characteristics?”

like, "What kind of god stuff? What kind of god genealogy?" Maybe it was made by pure Dwarves that the gods couldn't reach. ”

Without God's intervention, I couldn't help myself. Among Valhalla's many treasures, an object with God's power belonged rarely.

Even Thor's strongest weapon, Shannir, used a haunt called God's Metal, but it was made purely by the power of Dwarves.

“By the way, Taejo, you found this. I wouldn't even notice if I was like this. ”

“I got lucky. ”

In fact, it was rainbow, so it caught my eye.

Heda quietly examines Taeho and speaks in a clear voice.

“It's just a handle, but it's got a lot of magic in it, and it looks good. Perhaps if you were a Dwarf craftsman in Valhalla, you could put on a new blade. ”

“You can't use it like this, can you? ”

Heda asked me if it was an Epic grade ingredient item, and I thought about it for a moment.

“Hmm · · · Maybe? But let's not fix it too soon. I'll do some digging, too. If we look at the records from the Great War, we might be able to get a clue. Maybe it's really usable in this state. ”

“Please.”

“It's for the warriors of the legion. It's the Valkyries.”

Heda smiles and grimaces, returning the piece of the sword to Taejo and grabbing the pole again. The rapid currents allow me to arrive at Idun's garrison shortly.

“Perhaps Ithun will be surprised to return earlier than expected. ”

I tied my belly to the ferry and was single. Taeho returned to the encampment after only three days, even while he was lying in the bed of the Obsidian, smiling as he suddenly remembered what Heda said.

“Why? Is something good going on? ”

“Ithun said he would give you a gift when you returned from this expedition. ”

I knew it. I thought I'd see you in a few weeks, thinking about my first suspension, but I never thought I'd see you again in three days.

‘You're not saying you couldn't prepare a gift because it was too short? ’

Oh, my God.

He also smiled as if he knew that Taeho was thinking a rather blasphemous thought.

“Ithun's gift, I don't know why I'm excited. ”

“I'll show it to Heda first. ”

There were only two in the beginning.

As always, Heda takes a step back from the entrance of the temple, escorting Taejo to the front of the temple.

“Bye.”

“Of course.”

Taeho went inside the temple. After a few steps, the familiar landscape opened before me instead of the darkness.

“My warrior Tahoe. ”

“I'm here to see Idun. ”

Taeho knelt naturally and expressed his respects. Idun, standing in front of the apple tree, looked down at Taejo.

“I got your report. You've done a great job this time. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to break Giant's special plan early. ”

“It's all thanks to Idun's blessing. ”

In fact, the power of Idun was able to defeat the player. He used to chant Heda's name secretly every time, but he was actually quite grateful to Idun.

Idun dares to look back at Taejo, then takes a step forward. He reaches right in front of Taeho and lowers his posture to touch Taeho's cheeks.

“Players are not meant to be fought by lesser warriors. I'm really glad you're back in one piece. ”

It was a kind thing to say.

I only felt a warm glow that was intense enough to cover my face.

After touching Taeho's cheek again, Ithun suddenly turned around and said in a playful voice.

“I heard you rode a brotherhood this time, Warrior Tae Ho? I heard it's a beautiful warrior. ”

“Uh, it's... ”

“I'm not speculating. Heard all the stories from Heda. ”

Idun, who was really joking and giggling, turned to Taejo only after walking under the apple tree where he was originally standing.

“I've come back from a successful expedition, so I'll drop the treasure as promised. ”

I was really looking forward to it. When Taeho's eyes revitalized, Idun smiled again.

“I've prepared two things. Either way. ”

It wasn't Izzie who did it. Before Taeho even reacted, Idun suddenly pulled out a white coat from the air.

“First of all, this is the Thousand Horse Wings. Wearing it will transform you into a flying horse. ”

“On a thousand horses? And Pegasus? ”

Taeho didn't know much about Nordic mythology, but he did know some Greek Roman mythology. Pegasus was a white horse with wings that belonged to the hero of Greek mythology, Bellopon.

Idun also nodded to see if he knew the name Pegasus.

“One of the gifts Olympus sent to Asgard, a long time ago. I don't think I particularly like you. He likes to ride. ”

Idun ridiculed me, but I couldn't deny Taeho.

He was a thousand-man wingsuit.

Taeho didn't intend to wear it himself. That was the dress I had to wear to my comrades who were fighting together.

‘Captain Siri, if you wear that, can you fly? And then there's the roll. ’

It wasn't just the two of them. Any warrior who fought together could do it.

‘Oh, no, wait. Why are you riding on rolls? ’

Taeho left the Mysterious Hand to the Roll and thought of what he could do with 1,000 Horse Wings. And Idun, who was watching Taejo like that, said in a passing tone.

“You'd better have one later in case you're on the battlefield with Heda. ”

“Ithun?”

“The other one is this pocket. ”

Icrun turns his horse around and this time pulls out a white pocket the size of a palm of his hand from the air.

“Taejo, do you know a treasure ship named Skid Vladnir? ”

“Uh-oh. ”

It was the first name I ever heard. I wouldn't have known if I hadn't told him it was a ship.

“A mysterious treasure that can be placed in your pocket anytime, anywhere, with a gentle breeze and so small when folded. The boats were commissioned by Loki's sons, and this pouch was also commissioned by his sons. ”

In short, it was a designer made by a maker craftsman.

“Whatever goes in this pocket gets smaller. So you can really hold a lot of stuff. ”

“Small · · · · losing? ”

“Yes, my warrior Tahoe. Can I borrow one of your things for a moment? ”

When Idun reached out his hand and said, Taejo carefully stretched out his wingsuit.

“Here you go. ”

“Take a good look. ”

Idun did not fold the wings of the hawk, but grabbed it appropriately and carried it to the entrance of his pocket. Surprisingly, the wingsuit of the falcon, which was much larger than the pocket, changed to the size of the finger, and went straight into the pocket.

“Wow.”

I was amazed. Idun pulls his wings out of his pocket again as if this wasn't all. When I counted them quietly, when I counted three, the wings of the falcon returned to its original size.

“Even after you pull it out like this, it stays small for a while. Time is of the essence. Moreover, you don't have to worry about mixing things up because you can pull out what you want right away. ”

‘This is an inventory from the game. ’

No, it wasn't just that level. In addition to storage, it seemed like it would be useful because of its small function.

“His name is Unni. ”

Idun seals his pockets beautifully, placing his pockets on the air. On the right hand side was the Thousand Horse's wingspan, and on the left was Unni.

“Well, then, choose one of the two. ”

Idun's words were too cruel. Pick one of those. Maybe you should just show me one.

‘No, whatever you choose is great. ’

Taeho, who had a positive mind, began to ponder with a serious face.

Idun laughs again.

“Don't worry too much, my warrior Tae Ho. Next time you raise the ball, you'll get the other one. ”

A warrior who would receive a treasure was just one blessing.

Taeho thanked Taeho for the deliberate smallpox, a strength of Saddam's troops. He took a deep breath and looked at the treasures again.

Thousand Horse Wings and Unni.

Taeho has decided.
