Valhalla Saga

Midgard, the land of the Humans, is truly vast. Much larger than the land of the gods, Asgard, many human beings grew up with so many different species of animals that it was impossible to calculate the number.

Not even the gods who could see Midgard knew everything.

From the beginning, Odin sent so many crows to look around the world, it was evidence that they denied the power of the gods.

Humans were no different.

Humans possessed by the gods of Asgard as masters of Midgard, but they knew nothing of Midgard. For humans, more than half of Midgard was an unknown land filled with mystery, fear, myriad opportunities and dangers.

So humans didn't know. The gods didn't even notice.

Loki's seeds of panic begin to blossom all over Midgard. Every one of them was a disaster without a shortage, but the fog of mystery did not reveal them.

An island with deep forests, small towns in big countries, and oceans all around.

The first thing I realized was the island nation.

The ships that have left the harbor have not returned. If it had been one, two, or the same day, the fleet would have met a terrifying storm. No, that's actually what they thought at first.

But after one day, after two days, as time went by, more ships could not return. A week later, I fell into a fear that the whole country could not endure.

Why can't the ship come back?

May the gods of Asgard be angry? Is this a storm that won't stop?

No. No big storm. If a storm was enough to wipe out the fleet, the island would know about it.

The island nation was never small. They were able to self-sustain without communicating with the continent. But the fact that the only path to the outside was cut was enough to choke people.

King Sven, the king of all the fishermen, warriors and farmers on the island, stood at the wharf and looked out at the sea. It's only been a week since the shipwreck, but the harbor smells of death.

Naturally, self-sufficiency was a story in the eyes of the entire country.

The harbor that was cut off was dry. Failure to go out to sea was more than stopping trade. Fishermen who were forced to leave the harbor close to the sea were unable to catch fish, and the people of the harbor were rubbing empty nets and avoiding them every day.

“We have to go out to sea and find the source. We also have to find out if all the boats are blocked. ”

Ubbe, King Sven's servant and advisor, was smart and realistic. First of all, it was perfectly reasonable to say that we should clarify the cause.

King Sven, however, failed to make his decision. There were already too many boats and sailors lost. Furthermore, a number of large ships had to be mobilized in order to see all the boats. A small ferry could not cross the sea.

King Sven left his advisor and went to see a prophet in a remote part of the palace. The prophet who scored the bones and blood of the animals noticed the king's visit even though he could not see. The king gave me the answer before he even asked me.

“Have a great sacrifice. We must offer sacrifices to the gods and ask for salvation. ”

King Sven did not normally like prophets very much. The prophet who had been in the palace since before King Sven was born was so old that he could not tell how old he was. My skin was pale because I didn't see the sunlight, and my eyes were creepy because I only had white eyes without my eyes. I was reminded of a snake that was tall and has good muscles, which was always in a crooked posture.

The prophet's voice was low, gloomy, and rough. But today, it sounded so right and sweet.

King Sven prepares to go straight to the priesthood. The people of the island welcomed the king's choice. It was better not to crouch and die. What's more, a sacrifice to the gods. If all these things are wrath from the gods, God will forgive them, and if there is a disaster, God will resolve it.

Sacrifices were gathered all over the island country. Nine kinds of sacrifices were collected, including goats and pigs.

On the day the ship was cut off, a sacred sacrifice was made in the royal palace. I lit a great fire and slit the heads of the sacrifices and offered blood to the gods. King Sven slits the throats of the sacrifices with a large sword and pleads with the gods.

And there was someone who heard the voice.

&

Heimdall, who guards the fort built on the Bifrost Bridge, twitches his only ear. Even the sound of sheep's wool growing in his delicate ears reaches the human plea.

Heimdall didn't see this coming. It was not enough to blow the horned egg larkhorn that was used to announce the beginning of Ragnarok, but it was also not enough to ignore it. That's what his gut was telling him.

“I'll let Odin know. ”

Heimdall's troop warriors, who were guarding the fort's decision, have been rattled. Even the Valkyrie heading to Valhalla, where Odin's palace is, couldn't hide their excitement.

Not because the Valkyries and Warriors of Heimdahl were corrupt enough to be happy about the misfortune of the handover.

It's because they knew what would happen when the same thing happened, when they asked for salvation in the handover and decided that Heimdall was worthy of passing it on to Odin.

Some of the excited warriors go to Enaheim. Other troop warriors were curious about their appearance more than usual, and the more excited Heimdall warriors carefully opened their mouths after dragging other troop warriors to a dark, grim alley or corner of a bar.

“It's still a secret, but only you. ”

“You mustn't gossip. Okay?"

“Of course. Trust me. ”

“You know how heavy my mouth is, right? ”

Warriors looked each other in the eye and said, the next morning, what everyone expected happened.

Rumors spread throughout Balhalla through mouths lighter than a sip of beer.

And the rumor circled around and entered the outermost outpost.

&

Skaeza, who chose Idun's troops as her asylum, falls into a deep sleep. It was a magical ritual to heal the myriad of wounds inflicted in Shadow Country.

Fortunately, the ritual was almost over. It was Ku Hulin's interpretation that he would wake up after a few months because his consciousness had been severed once by a sudden attack, but it was almost the last phase.

Taeho, who left Gaebulug in the ceremonial room for Ku Hulin, who likes to look at sleeping Skazaha, always had the same day. The day I learned from Ragnar and trained with Siri.

“Well, okay. I like your face a lot these days. ”

Ragnar glances at Siri, Taejo and Taejo with a satisfied face. And he knew exactly why Ragnar said that.

It was Taeho who had not been blessed by Heda since the day Skazaha arrived.

Ragnar smiled more joyfully as Taeho became the miraculous eyes, and Athenmaha, who watched the training with his head down in the river, laughed.

“Cheer up, Taeho. He will bless you again soon. ”

Siri, who was on the same side, patted me on the shoulder with encouragement, but Taeho felt even weirder.

Ragnar shakes his head a few more times with a big smile on his face, and he sits on the ground and says,

“You're on your own. Anyway, I want to tell you a story about a day I spent with a weak student. ”

“What is it?”

When Taejo asked about it, Ragnar turned to Siri for a moment and began talking again.

“I have made great sacrifices in Midgard, seeking Asgard's help. Actually, it's a sacrifice like that, but this time it's different. Having determined that Heimdahl is worthy to hear. ”

“Are you talking about Heimdahl? ”

When Siri was startled, Ragnar quickly nodded.

“Yes, that's why the Heimdall Valkyries went to Odin. Since the rumors spread last night, I think I'll make a decision tomorrow. That's why all the warriors in the army are so excited. The Ulr Force is probably out of control by now. ”

He had not been able to return to Ulr because he had been living in Idun's army for a few days. However, Ragnar nods with a slightly dazzled face, as if it could be easily imagined.

However, unlike those two, Taeho had to tilt his head. What's the connection between being sacrificed in handover and the excitement of the Valhalla Warriors?

Oh, really? ’

He asked for salvation in the handover and decided that the gods were worthy of it.

So what happens?

“I see you've noticed. Yes, Midgard dispatched by the Valhalla warriors. ”

Ragnar smiles, and Taeho nods together.

It was easy to forget to live in Valhalla, but Valhalla warriors were all those who lost their lives once in handover. In other words, they were dead.

If Valhalla is the afterlife, the handover Midgard is the afterlife. The Valhalla warriors were naturally excited.

I'll see the living again. ’

I can meet family and friends You can retrace your homeland with attachment.

Taejo reflectively looked back at Siri. It was Siri who cared for Rolf because she resembled her dead brother. I was sure that my family love would be strong.

Siri was making a poor, dark look on her face. Maybe he was worried about the family that remained in the handover.

However, even though he noticed Taeho's gaze, Siri suddenly shifted her face to her normal gaze. Ragnar asked Taeho, without seeing such a series.

“Can you feel it? ”

“Yes, it's exciting. ”

The voice goes to the end, but it sinks a little. It's because I remembered things that I tried to forget.

Parents and friends, frozen gamer colleagues and supervisors.

When Taeho's eyes began to kick well, Ragnar began to pull his tongue out, unlike during the Siri period.

“I think I've come up with something else, yes, but that's not the only reason warriors get excited. No, to be honest, a lot more people think they died without fools. ”

The warriors of Midgard longed for Valhalla. Moreover, some of the warriors were long dead. When I met a strange descendant like someone else or saw a completely different hometown, I would feel confused.

The real reason why the warriors of Valhalla were so excited was elsewhere.

Ragnar did not give me a shy answer as always. I looked back at Siri, but Siri also smiled a little and did not open her mouth. I knew he would do what Ragnar wanted.

‘What.’

The benefits of Valhalla warriors going to Midgard.

Taeho takes a step back and looks at you. They were Valhalla warriors like the village's foolish brothers, but not from afar. They were all brave and great God warriors who were called upon by God to protect the world.

Warriors of God, taking orders from God, and turning them over to us.

Each and every one of their actions must have been a story. That wasn't the usual story either. It is not a myth that is made in many battlefields and disappears again, but a tradition that will be remembered and followed, perhaps decorating a myth!

“The birth of a new saga. ”

The source of Valhalla Warriors' power.

Valhalla warriors eager to become stronger.

“Yes, that's it. ”

The Valhalla warriors were able to make their own saga in Asgard. If we made a great achievement or did something that everyone remembered, the story itself could be sublimated into a shrine.

But it wasn't easy. It was very difficult to build a new saga in Valhalla, where everyone was a hero.

But in the handover, the story was different. Furthermore, the story created in the handover was more likely to be reborn as a powerful buy at once. Many will believe and remember that story.

Which army warriors will be dispatched? How many warriors are they sending?

Valhalla even managed to pull the strings.

“And that's not all. ”

Ragnar grins. His green eyes, reminiscent of the wolf, twinkle with playfulness.

What's the advantage besides being able to make saga?

As Tahoe rethinked, Siri noticed Ragnar. Ragnar nods, and Siri grins and gives a hint to Tahoe.

“Taejo, think of the day you first came to Valhalla. Especially on the first night out. ”

A feast of the night filled with the first warriors to enter Valhalla, among other things.

The most important thing that happened that day.

‘Deployment of troops. ’

At the end of the banquet, an army to be assigned was established. Taeho himself came to the army of Idun because unlike other warriors, there was no god he had always believed in in in the handover.

He was surprised to see Taeho himself.

She said it's been too long since I met a new warrior.

Taeho raises his head. It was only then that I realized.

What happens if Tahoe himself plays Midgard? If the warriors around him favored the warriors of Idun, as they did in Valhalla, if Taeho himself would shout the name of Idun hard, then there would be a warrior who would follow Idun deep in his heart. And if they fight hard and face a glorious end.

“Oh, my.”

Taeho looks back at Siri with his eyes wide open, and Siri nods with a smile. Ragnar chuckles.

“Yes, there will be a successor. ”

A new warrior in the army.

Just as the rest of Valhalla's warriors do, Taejo begins to burn.
