Valhalla Saga

Chapter 51 - Brawl

There were gods and men all over the world.

But God's relationship with man was different in the world.

In some worlds, God and man were equal. Although it was clear that God was transcendent compared to man, it was only a difference in abilities, God and man existed in the world as independent individuals from each other.

Surprisingly, there were not many of these worlds. Although there were some differences, in most of the world, man himself belonged to God.

Because of this, the viewpoint of the gods who see man was different from one world to another.

God sees man as an individual equal to himself.

God considers man to be a child and a leader.

God thinks of man as a toy or a pet.

A god who treats man as a slave and acts like a tool.

The view of the gods did not end simply on the level of what they thought.

Human destiny has been decided in the eyes of the gods.

Erin's gods think of man as an equal.

The gods of Asgard think of man as a child.

And the gods of Olympus thought of man as a tool.

On the seventh day of the afternoon after leaving Delfoy.

Taeho's group makes their way west.

Even though half of the world turned to the land of those who wished it to perish, the other half, especially the western region where Taeho's party was traveling, was still the land of those who maintained it.

Furthermore, the group moves away from the city or town, only to places where no one lives. No one encountered him, so there was no natural problem.

Of course, there were rare places where people were rare for a reason. Indigenous monsters emerge from Olympus halfway through the journey and stand in front of the group.

[Like · · · You guys have a lot of life.]

Through Sibylla's mouth, holding the golden staff, the reliquary of Apollon, recovered from Delfoy, Apollon said.

After leaving Delfoy, it was Apollon who was regularly dropping the trust for as little as 5 to as 10 minutes a day.

The sights in Civilla's eyes were truly diverse.

I saw a big river. It was one of the tributaries of the Euphrates River, which runs through the western part of the river.

“Wow, can I eat this? ”

Brackey, who hammered a giant creature from the river, said with an interesting eye. It was big enough to swallow a man up, but once it looked like a fish.

Siri pulls on Braki's belt as soon as she tries to eat some of the monster. I originally wanted to catch the back of my neck, but I had no choice because of the key difference.

“Pick something up and get out of here. ”

“Are you worried about me? Kyaa, it's only Siri for me. ”

“Just eat and get out. ”

When Siri let go of her belt, Brackey staggers for a moment, but then he smiles coolly, rebalancing.

By their side, the Valkyries were cooking at the same time as they were catching fish for late lunch.

“Fishing is hunting after all. ”

I was not as good at catching deer or rabbits while running through the woods, but I was also good at fishing.

However, it didn't help much to miss the fishing rod while enjoying myself. It was actually Ingrid who caught the fish.

Nyord, a god of Ingrid, was both a god of the sea and an excellent fisherman. Nature's favorite Valkyrie, Ingrid, was an expert in fishing.

Ingrid doesn't even use a fishing rod. You cast a fishing net, triggering Nyord's blessing, and retrieved shortly after. Just that, the fishing net was full of fish.

In fact, if you throw a net, you could catch a lot more fish than this, but you won't be able to eat all of them. The fishing nets were just right.

Las Grid trimmed the scales and guts of the fish Ingrid caught. Unlike the usual image, she was good at cooking. Some were floating, some were baking, some were stewing, and others were showing a variety of cooking skills.

And again, next to those Valkyries, a little farther away, Nidhoy and Athenia were always close together.

“Not caught · · · · Difficult to fish · · · · · · ·. ”

Nidhog, born to fish for the first time, said in a depressed voice. Gandhur is fishing elongated fish right next to her, so her depression is doubling.

“It's okay. You can do it. Let's give it a little more strength. ”

“Okay, I'll concentrate. ”

Needhog fixes his face and focuses on fishing rods and stew in the encouragement of Adenmaha. When I was distracted, I was a Niedhawk who imitated Hresbelg's face, but it was quite effective and focused.

Athelma glanced at Nidhog's side and slowly pointed her finger.

Three, two, one.

“Here I am!”

Needhog suddenly shouts loudly. Seeing the fishing rod bend so big, it looks like it's stuck.

“I got you! I got you! ”

“Calm down, calm down. ”

“Take it easy. ”

Needhog cautiously catches the fish. She was more serious than ever in the world.

And then a few more minutes.

Finally, a fish appeared on the surface. The length from head to tail was as big as Brackey's forearm.

For the first time in his life, Nidhog liked to fish. Gandur and Ingrid, who were watching next door, also praised Needhog with good words.

“You have a gift. ”

“Almost the largest fish you can catch in this river. Congratulations."

“Needhog is awesome! ”

The last one was Athenian, and Nidhog blushed, smiling.

While everyone was amazed, Tahoe opened his eyes by himself, and immediately turned around to see how he knew, Athenia whispered a mysterious voice with her eyes.

‘Stay calm and don't break the labor. Needhog needs a hand, too. ’

The dragon's eye is a trough that can be pierced into the water.

The fish you just caught had no intention of taking Nidhog's bait. But I was forced to take the bait.

It is because I keep forgetting about the surroundings, Adenmah was the goddess of Tuaha de Danan, who could use the power of the sea. It wasn't about manipulating a fish.

‘Warm, warm. Isn't that mostly Mom? ’

Kuulin said, watching Adenmaha stroke Nidhog's head with a flick of his head. I didn't hear Adenmaha's voice mysteriously, but it was because of his unique insight into the skyscraper.

‘Well, that's a good thing. ’

Anyway, Nidhog likes it that much, so he laughs around Hahahaha, so there was no need to break the labor pains no matter what Aden Maha said.

Taeho held the fish in his chest and waved to his favorite Nidhoq while giving him a solemn sympathy for the fish for just a short while.

[Hmm.]

Just then, the forgotten Apollon raised his voice again.

Half of Olympus went back to the world of those who wanted to destroy it, and in a way it was a global crisis, but we couldn't just make an impression all day. I like the way the group looks.

“Oh, I'm sorry. Let me finish.”

[No, I am also energized by the lively scenery.]

Apollon laughs with Civilla's mouth.

In fact, it was Apollon who would have been very angry if ordinary humans had opened their eyes in the middle of the trust.

However, Taeho speaking was not an ordinary human being. He was the god of Asgard, our sacred neighbor.

Furthermore, Nidhog, who loved catching fish, was also a divine being as an ancient dragon, and Adenmaha, who smiled greatly next to him, was also a god.

The valkyries that were fishing and floating next to them were also low in stature, so for one thing it was God.

Braki and Siri were also heroes who could ascend to the throne of God someday, based on Olympus, far from ordinary people. So I had no choice but to be generous.

‘I like personality · · · · · No, holy people better than I've heard from stories. ’

Of course, thanks to the insights of the skyscrapers downstream, Apollon was a Kuulin speculator, but not a bad impression after all.

[Let's go back to the story, do you understand those who wish to be destroyed?]

“I don't fully understand it yet, but I think I do. ”

[That's enough. Those who want to maintain Bondi and want to perish cannot fully understand each other because their nature is different. It's because the way of thinking is different.]

Those who wished to be destroyed wished for the end of the world.

It was impossible to clearly understand the psychology of Apollon's words, but to some extent it could be felt through metaphor.

Those who tried to keep it alive. Rarely, those who eat, sleep, and live cheap ask why they live.

I'm alive. I'm alive.

Those who tried to maintain just lived without knowing how to do this, but that alone helped to maintain the world.

Those who wished for destruction ultimately wished for the end of the world, but those who wished for destruction were not filled with the instinct of destruction.

Live to achieve destruction.

It may have been an overstatement, but Taeho decided to think so.

To destroy the world, we had to defeat those who wanted to maintain it, and to do that, those who wanted to destroy it had to be counted and empowered.

Those who wanted to be destroyed had to live for a while. And I felt as joyful as those who tried to keep it alive during that life.

They also felt pain and joy when things went well. Positive emotions such as compassion, loyalty, and love for humans were also present.

Nevertheless, those who wanted to keep it and those who wanted to perish could not be united.

Whether they resembled each other but were inherently different, or whether they were born that way in the beginning, those who wanted to maintain and those who wanted to perish were confronted. Neither side was unilaterally hostile. It was good to think of each other as natural.

Apollon did not tell the tale of those who wished to be destroyed in order to convey such knowledge to Tahoe as a distant distance.

It was to estimate together what would happen in Olympus today, when the one who wanted to keep turned to hope for destruction.

[There may be times when a sudden change in nature will cause my own personality to change as much as my dear brother Artemis. However, if we look closely, our lives will not be changed greatly by turning to destruction.]

[The problem is that they are hostile to those they want to keep. In Olympus, the fate of man belongs to the gods, and changes in the gods lead to changes in man.]

[As all those who served my dear brother Artemis were turned to wanting destruction, those who were halfway around the world would have become wanting destruction. And they will be hostile to the unchanged.]

‘In short, a world war is about to break out. ’

Two months since the change began.

It was short. Moreover, those two months were just the time when Zeus began to present himself. It took Artemis more than a few days to fully turn to despair.

In the same way, half of the world turned to those who wanted to perish in less than two months.

It was too short a time for a real war. Artemis mobilized an army of monsters to attack the cities of Apollon, because the cities of Apollon and Artemis were adjacent to each other and Artemis itself was quite urgent.

[As Kuulin said. There is no longer time for peace like this. Soon, we will start a great war that has never been fought by humans who have sided with God.]

The group heads to Athens, where it becomes the center of her Divine Power to rendezvous with the occult Athena.

Apollon not only knew Athens, but also the surrounding area.

[There is a strong human country a little distance from Athens. And it is very likely that the God of that country will turn to the one who wishes destruction.]

No, I was actually convinced.

[Ares, God of War.]

A deficit born between Zeus king of the gods and his chamber, Hera.

A ruthless, barbaric but powerful force that I can count on among the Twelve.

He had been bad with Athena for a long time. If I turned to the desperate, it was clear that I would focus more on Athena than anyone else.

And the country that takes Ares as its guardian.

Humans who would have turned with Ares to perish.

[Sparta.]

Taejo grimaces. Apollon grins with Civilla's face.

Warriors of War.

It has more military power than any policeman in Olympus.

Apollon's expectations were not wrong.

Same day, same time.

Sparta's forces have begun marching from afar.
