Valhalla Saga

&

“Just in case. ”

Ragnar, who received a telegram from a raven flying to Idun's army, smiles.

It is because Taeho has been chosen as one of the warriors to be sent to Midgard.

In fact, I was expecting something.

Warriors dispatched to Midgard were mostly mid-level warriors, most recently mid-level warriors.

Moreover, Asgard is now putting considerable effort into finding the fall soul fragment. There are signs of a great war, not Midgard, where large armies should be headed.

In addition to a few of these conditions, Taejo was almost the first candidate.

‘You seem to have taken good care of Siri. I wonder if Idun or Ulr used his power. ’

The Warriors to Midgard consisted of warriors who were chosen one by one by one from their respective divisions. The story seems to be organized in a way that makes it impossible for an army to lead it, and then it seems to be able to pick one and send it out fairly.

The leader of the Ulr Corps was Siri. I had just become a mid-level warrior, and proved my superior skill several times. Moreover, Taeho, the leader of Idun's troops, was very well connected and breathed.

“Midgard · · · · · · · · · · · · · · ·. ”

Siri made quite a complicated face. It was a glance that seemed to be mixed with joy and sadness.

But she fixed her face and celebrated each other with Tae Ho, whether she noticed Ragnar's gaze or saw more of the positive side.

“We leave in an hour. I feel like I'm eating roasted beans with lightning. Prepare to leave. ”

“Yes, Master. ”

“Yep.”

Syria and Taejo, who were happy, moved to their homes and began to form their armies. In fact, the captain had to get a few new clothes to change into Unnier.

Taeho, who has the full armor, heads straight for the temple. I wanted to say hello to Idun before I left.

In fact, going to the temple did not always mean that I could meet Idun. When I came back to the army, I could almost meet Idun, but when I stayed at the garrison, I could only see the temple that was decorated as ordinary as ten or eight times.

But even so, it was a temple.

Moreover, today is also a special day, so I was able to meet Idun even though I had searched for the temple without Heda's guidance.

As always, beautiful and compassionate Iran brought out the words of the bridegroom after saying goodbye as if she knew Taejo would visit.

“My warrior Tahoe, it's good to know your name, but don't overdo it. Okay?"

“I understand.”

“Yes, I do. ”

Idun lowered his body and blessed Taejo. After expressing the example, it was the usual order to finish the throne. But this time it was a little different.

“And..."

Suddenly, he draws a strange smile.

“Go to the back of the temple when you get out. ”

“Behind the temple? ”

“Yeah, no one's sneaking around. ”

Idun, who said a little prankly, turned around. It was in a different way than usual, but Taeho could sense that he was finished. In fact, when I closed my eyes once, I noticed the inside of the dark temple, not the green meadow where the golden apple tree was growing.

Behind the Temple.

Taeho heavily swallowed his breath in strange expectations and headed towards the back door of the temple, where he had never had to go. As I slowly opened the door, I saw him standing in a corner, like he was hiding.

“How did you do? ”

“Yes.”

He nodded his head in a small voice and lowered his voice. Heda stares away for a while, then says as if throwing.

“It's hard to visit Midgard. ”

I needed Heimdall's permission to cross the Rainbow Bridge Bifrost.

Heda, who had his back against the wall, asked him to trim Sa Sam Taeho's clothing mule.

“Take care, and don't overdo it. ”

“Heddo.”

It was always the same exchange. But something was different. Taeho felt it, so he didn't make a move. Heda takes a long breath and grabs Taeho by the hand. I pulled myself up as I always did.

However, the place where my lips touched was different.

“May Idun's blessings be with you. ”

After the blessing, Heda looks away for a while, and Taeho grins.

It was then that Taeho suddenly realized that there was a gaze on this side. Rollo was lying on his stomach in the shade of a tree.

Rollo smiles as he looks at Taejo and turns his head.

I was arrogant to pretend I didn't see it, but I didn't dislike it.

And how much time has passed.

Taejo and Siri were escorted by Heda and Ragnar on a sailboat flying in the sky.

&

King Sven looks up at the sky with a nervous face. Even though it was already the third day of the sacrifice, there was no news in heaven.

Some insisted that Heaven was angry because of lack of care, and some blamed King Sven for all this.

Ubbe, an advisor, said it's not too late now, so we need to identify the cause. King Sven's anxiety stems from the thought that Ubbe knew what was about to happen, and that he had purposely opposed the sacrifice.

In the meantime, the prophet who had me do all the work only lifted up the sacrifices all day long with a peaceful face. The people of the island blamed King Sven and did not insult the prophet. That made King Sven feel even worse.

It has been four days since the sacrifice began.

Nearly ten days after they had not been out to sea, the complaints of the people spread like wildfire. Moreover, they needed someone to blame. King Sven was able to read the panic in the eyes of the people looking at him.

Something had to be done. King Sven raised his prayers even harder, insulting his past self for the sake of sacrifice.

It was around noon when the sun was highest in the morning.

Suddenly a rain came down from the sky. It was only for a moment, but it rained an enormous amount of rain, like a hole in the sky.

King Sven, who became like a drowning mouse, couldn't take it anymore. Now he tries to vomit insults at the prophet standing in front of the altar that is left without even a fire.

But that was the moment.

The rainbow opened.

It rained from heaven to earth, as if it were to spread a rainbow.

King Sven opens his mouth more loudly to make a mockery. The people knelt in the mud and joined the names of the gods.

There were no people on the island who couldn't see the rainbow. But I had never seen a rainbow so close. Moreover, the rainbow in front of me was unusual. From the end of the cloud to the other end, there was a bright light. There were people coming down on rainbows.

“Odin!”

“Thor!”

Just a few minutes ago, the grim energy that was pressing down around the altar disappeared in one fell swoop. The joy that the people emitted seemed to envelop the world.

Ubbe is bewildered. The prophet smiles calmly.

Finally, the heavenly warriors arrived.

A large ship sliding down the rainbow bridge stopped in the air above the altar. The warriors of God stand on top of it.

“The warriors of Valhalla! ”

“Oh! Odin! ”

The people of Midgard see Valhalla warriors as if they were engulfed in light.

“King Sven, mortals of Midgard, I am Valkyrie Ingrid. I have brought the warriors of Valhalla by order of the gods. ”

It was Ingrid, one of the three Valkyries who froze in the Black Fortress. The Taeho group sounds normal, but the people of Midgard are also different. It was a mysterious voice that seemed to speak directly to my heart.

“Khh, Sven, son of Knut, greets the warriors of the gods. ”

King Sven clasps his head, kneeling on the ground. The prophet's waist is deep, and Ubbe, who was expressing a blank expression, falls flat on the ground.

Ingrid looks down at King Sven with an office expression, as always. She looked on the other side without much thought, but not at King Sven. It was as if the fierce stare of heaven was to remind me of the difference.

In the meantime, the Valhalla warriors disembark the ship. The first Taejo approaches King Sven and raises him up.

“I am the warrior of Idun. ”

I smiled warmly and spoke kindly. Then King Sven asked with a startled face.

“Are you talking about Idun? Goddess of Youth?”

“Yes. Ithun's ship that flies in the sky. Idun sent me. I am the warrior of Idun. ”

How many times did Taeho emphasize Idun? It seemed a bit unnatural, but not to King Sven. He nodded several times and recited the name of Idun.

The rest of the Valhalla warriors look at such a subtlety, kicking or smiling their tongues. They asked if it would be like that.

Even Siri smiles lightly, and a warrior leaps off the ship. The appearance of a larger than Taeho seems to be several times larger, and everyone around you is bewildered. Heghan laughed loudly at everyone's gaze.

“I am Bracki, Thor's warrior! I'm here to save you! ”

Brackey barely made it to the intermediate ranks this time. King Sven, who recited the name of Idun on his appearance, immediately forgot his words. Until now, different kinds of horrors have swept through the surrounding area.

“Braki?”

“Could it be Brackey? ”

“Of the Scared Warriors? ”

“Scald's Heroes?! He just died?! ”

“Yes! I am Bracci, son of God, the messenger of Scald! ”

Brackey shouts again in a friendly voice. Then those who looked at each other began to shout.

“Thor!”

“Aah! Thor! ”

Brackey was famous. He was a legendary invincible warrior throughout Midgard.

Brackey's death was only a few months ago. But he returns a warrior of God, a warrior of Thor.

Everyone had already experienced the miracle of facing the warriors of Valhalla, but the feeling was different. Even the non-warriors were enthusiastic.

The warriors aboard the ship were also agitated by a sudden change of scenery. I knew they had to go down and chant the name of God.

But that's when it happened.

You hear the sound of a sharp, dangerous horn through the cheer that fills the square. It was coming from the harbor.

“The boat is coming, the boat is coming! ”

Ubbe, the adviser, urgently shouted. But the signal was not one. Immediately, you hear a drum calling for emergency.

What happened?

Valkyrie Ingrid raises her voice as everyone sits around her. The gods chose noon in the beginning because they had some anticipation that things would happen.

“Get to the harbor! ”

The island nations, including King Sven, flocked to the port of Ur. Taejo and Braki also boarded a sailboat in the sky and headed back to the harbor.

It was a clear sky without clouds. I could see the ship approaching from so far away. It was a large merchant ship from the Continental Merchant Guild, which used to visit island countries often, not from this side.

And everyone could see why the boats that left the port had gone missing.

Large tentacles protrude from the sea and crush the merchant ship. It was divided into several pieces, but not just pulling them into the sea.

It was a sight without fear. Each tentacle was much bigger and thicker than the pillar of a large ship.

“Kraken.”

Valkyrie Ingrid narrows her eyes and mutters low. There were so many tentacles, and the number of giant sea monsters was limited.

“I'm leaving right now. Defeat sea monsters and rescue people. ”

Ingrid said quickly and briefly. Taeho nods, the owner of the ship, and Ingrid looks back at King Sven.

“King Sven, son of Knut, will you go with me? ”

King Sven looks at the sea monster and turns white, but soon nods. I couldn't back out of here.

A sailboat carrying King Sven rises to the sky. The Valhalla warriors are ready for battle with their own weapons. Siri also took out a large crossbow.

The deep sea was dark in color. A giant sea creature that is invisible to the eye causes instinctive horror.

But the Valhalla warriors did not die at all. There were only eight of them, but they were all mid-level warriors.

Taeho quickly judged. It was fearless to enter the sea with a sea monster crouching for tens of meters, but I had to. Furthermore, it was only Taeho himself who was among those who were with him.

“Commander Siri. ”

Taejo called for Siri. They were already two people who could understand the meaning of their eyes. Siri nodded, and Taejo, who had entrusted Siri with the construction and control of the ship, swallowed a great deal of breath. I smiled once for myself and jumped out of the boat.

Surprised, King Sven vomits. The warriors of Valhalla also look surprised. But Siri smiled alone. because he knew what he was going to do.

Once in the air, Taeho pulls out a summoning stone from his waist dance pocket. You shout at the sea with a stone full of magical power.

“Adenmaha! It's your turn this time! ”

It wasn't necessary, but I shouted. And then something amazing happened.

The room was opened with a bright light. And between them, the beautiful white poem Surpent, Adenmaha, appeared.

I was eating! Yo, seriously! ’

I started complaining about Athena, but I immediately understood the situation. As soon as she landed at sea, she stretched her neck long enough for Taejo to ride. Taeho sits on the saddle of the beast on top of his neck and fills Idun's whistle.

And the Valhalla warriors, who were watching, shouted aloud.

“Valkyrie Warrior! ”

“The bar, the Valkyrie? ”

The last rumble was King Sven. He looks back at Brackey standing nearby and asks.

“Y-you mean that poetry suppent is a Valkyrie? ”

“Yes, it's a very famous story between us. How many Valkyrie warriors did he fight? That's the guy! ”

“Oh! Oh! ”

King Sven looks genuinely amazed and begins to pay his respects to Taeho. Siri smiled bitterly, and Ingrid became an aesthetic gaze. And Adenmaha, who heard the commotion on Yonke's boat, murmured a little.

‘Cause I'm not a Valkyrie, yo. ’

Taeho knew, but he didn't deny it. I didn't have time to do that, but I thought it would be in my best interest to let it be misunderstood.

“Come on, let's go! Adenmaha!”

When Taeho pulls the strings, Adenmah starts to move quickly. Cracken, who had smashed the boat, also began throwing debris at Taejo and Adenmaha to see if he felt threatened by the existence of Adenmah.

Taejo lowers his head. Adenmacha also maneuvered quickly like a fish that met water.

“To Idun! ”

A loud shout triggers the warrior's armor. The Winter Wolf Sword cuts through one of the Kraken's tentacles sharply.
