Valhalla Saga

Chapter 67 - Ancient Dragon # 2

&

“Latatosk!”

“You bitch! You bitch! You're a scumbag who took revenge for me! ”

As soon as Nidhog smiled and greeted him, Latatosk, whose whole body was covered in chains, cursed with evil.

It was Nidhog who was comforted by the horrifying sight of the massive beast, staring frighteningly at him for tens of meters.

I was a little surprised by the insult for a long time, but for Nidhoq, the insult of Latatosk was as natural as the flow of water from high to low.

“Well, it's good to hear it after so long. ”

Needhog smiles and says, "Ratatosk looks dazed." And then I threw up again.

“Crazy bitch! You Majohist bitch! ”

“Ma, what is the Majohist? ”

Needhog blinks and asks, Latatosk gives a poisonous smile. But even before she could explain Moore, the dreadful life pierced Latarox.

“Why don't you stop there? Huh?”

Her rebirth as a true dragon was nothing compared to the time of Siserpent.

But Latatosk was already poisoned enough. I opened my mouth, staring at Adenmah the same way.

“Funny · · · Hiic?! ”

I was unable to speak. Ratatosk is the scariest Odin the world - no, it's because more pressure surrounds the whole body.

“Apologize to Needhog. ”

Taejo said, Latatosk couldn't hold out. I fell facedown and said quietly.

“Well, I'm sorry. I'm sorry, Needhog. ”

“Uh-huh.”

Needhog, who received an apology with his lips clenched, stepped back. It's been a pleasure meeting you for a long time, but I don't think we can continue this conversation.

“Looks like things are going well with that arm of yours. ”

Freya, who was standing behind the village theater, said that Heda swallowed a dry saliva, looking down at the foggy footsteps below where Latatosk was tied.

“Beyond that fog is the root of the world's water. ”

I don't see anything. The expression "sea of fog" was never exaggerated.

Freya stepped forward and said.

“Well, for now, the plan is simple. Once you're out in the magic circle centered on Latatosk, Tajo injects power to trigger powerful magic that cuts through fog and root jugs. And that means the body of Needhog can come out through a giant crevice like that. ”

“Oh, wait a minute, sis. Then who controls what Needhog is made of? ”

“Yes? Of course it should be Nidhog. Can you do that? ”

Freya looks back at Nidhog and says, Nidhog blinks.

“Now, wait a minute. Wait a minute."

She looks back at Athenmaha and Tahoe, and finally asks Freya face to face.

“Do you, Nidhog, have to go back to the roots? ”

“Who else can control your body but you? ”

According to Freya, Nidhog can't say anything like a mute honey. Taeho and Adenmaha hold Nidhog's hand and say:

“It's going to be okay. I'll pick you up if anything goes wrong. ”

“It's okay, Needhog. I'll go with you. ”

Needhog tried to smile, but it wasn't easy. Eventually, I breathed again and vomited fear.

“Well, yeah. But... ”

“You stupid bitch! Do you believe them? Argh! ”

Ratatosk vomited a harsh word without missing an opportunity. I was cut off in the middle by Taejo, but enough to scare Needhog.

Needhog trembles. He looked like he was about to burst into tears. Adenmaha quickly hugged Needhog from behind.

“Don't believe it. You trust me and Master Tahoe over that squirrel? ”

“I believe. I believe. ”

“It's okay, Needhog. It's gonna be okay. It will be. I told you once, if anything goes wrong, I'll come back for you. ”

When Taeho spoke again, Nidhog swallowed his thirst several times. After taking a deep breath, I looked back at Athenmaha.

“Adenmaha will accompany you? ”

“I'll go with you. I'll never leave you alone. ”

That's why Adenmaha came here in the first place. Unlike Taejona Heda, who had to maintain her magic circle, she had the freedom of fortune.

“Then I'll try. Yeah, I'll give it a shot. ”

Nidhog smiles again, and Taeho vomits a breath of relief. Freya shly shrugs, looking at you with a sad face.

“Okay, let's get started as soon as it's fixed. ”

“Wait, a little time to relax. ”

“It's okay now. You can do it. ”

Dory's head tilts back, and Nidhog grins once more, holding her hand. I was really scared, but I could do it with Adenmaha.

“Needhog.”

“Yes, Adenmaha. ”

Nidhog glances back at Taejo. Taeho nodded, understanding what that gaze meant.

“Let's get started.”

&

Taejo, Heda and Freya each stand in their assigned positions and exert their strength.

As the fog opened, Adenmaha, who was reconciled as a pure dragon, threw himself beyond the fog. Nidhog rides on her back.

“The roots are full of fog. It's so crowded I can't see far. That's what I always thought. Isn't there someone out there in the fog? Maybe someone I don't know is snoring? That's why I yell all the time. I thought maybe somebody would listen, maybe somebody who was sleeping would wake up. ”

The fog was dark and dark, making the roots dark and damp. Needhog continues to mutter as if trying to forget his fears.

“Roots don't taste good. I don't taste anything. But all I could find was roots, so I chewed sometimes. Biting my tail hurt. ”

Nidhog, smiling like an idiot, got a little closer to Athenmaha's back. I looked at the giant creature that was surrounded by green poison, from afar.

“It's Needhog.”

Ancient Dragon.

A Black Poison Dragon that can lead to the end of the world.

“Beautiful. Beautiful. ”

Adenmaha said, "It wasn't pretty, but it was real." It was truly magnificent.

“Thank you.”

Needhog, who was born and praised for his body for the first time, saw his body with his eyes mixed with all sorts of emotions.

And after a while. After surviving the poison by magic, Athena was seated on the back of Nidhog's body, and reconciled in a human form and entered into the body.

“It's the heart room, where I first met Master Taeho. It hurt, but it was good.”

“Huh?"

It hurt, but it was good?

Needhog replies with a suspicious look in his eyes.

“Owner Taeho just hit Nidhog at first. I was so scared.”

“I didn't know Needhog very well back then. ”

“Yes, it's okay. It's all behind us. And that's how I met Master Tae Ho. ”

Needhog smiles as if he's stuffed with happy memories. Athena hugged Needhog like that without me even knowing it. I felt like I had to.

After a brief hug, Needhog lies at the center of the heart chamber. Sitting on a couch that Taejo had built right away, she took one last deep breath and looked up at Adenmaha standing next to her.

“Then I'll try. ”

“I'll cheer you on, Needhog. ”

“Yes.”

Nidhog closes his eyes. The psychiatric and physical bodies were reunited.

“I'll be there, Adenmaha. Goodbye, Master Tae Ho. ”

After Nazik told me, I opened my eyes. What was shining in her eyes was no longer the landscape of the heart room. It was a world seen with the eyes of a giant black dragon.

Let's fly.

Out of the roots.

Beyond the waters of the world I have already experienced.

The Black Poison Dragon spreads its wings. I got up on my two legs and looked up at the sky. I keep an eye on the cracked fog and raise the ground.

Huge wingspan.

A strong wind blows you to the ground. The entire atmosphere of the roots was shaken.

The Black Poison Dragon rises. I hurled myself into the fog.

And that was the moment.

“Ugh!”

“Needhog?! ”

The cardiac chambers shook violently. Needhog cries out, and Adenmaha, who sits down, looks at Needhog with a hollow face.

Nidhog cries out as the Black Poison Dragon roars through the air.

“I got you! I won't let you go! The root · · · · of the world water won't let go! ”

The fog wasn't the only problem.

The pink matter of the root grabs hold of the Black Poison Dragon. I bound her with an invisible force that never seemed to let her go.

“My Lord!"

Aden Maha cried out, looking up at the sky. But I couldn't reach Taeho. No, Taeho couldn't help but touch it.

“Why, why?! ”

Nidhog shouts, shouting for the roots.

But the roots wouldn't listen to her. Rather, his strength became stronger.

“No. ”

Needhog said, at that moment, the Black Poison Dragon lost its power. A huge body moves from the sky to the ground, and Nidhog closes his eyes.

&

It was dark and black.

There was nothing. There was no one.

Nidhog opens his eyes. I opened my mouth somehow and shouted in a choking fear.

“Adenmaha! Master Taeho! ”

The answer never came back. Even Needhog's voice is buried in the darkness.

Nidhog sighs. And then I understood. This place was rooted. Nidhog himself was once again alone.

“Why · · · · · · · · · ·. ”

There was more than one crying voice. Needhog raises his head and shouts again.

“Adenmaha!”

But I knew when I shouted. It wasn't Adenmah's voice. From behind his back, it was someone other than Adenmaha who looked at him with a grumpy face.

Nidhog turns away. You see a little girl crouching in the dark. Your dark hair is so long that it covers your entire body.

“Who are you? Were you with me the whole time? ”

“I'm you, Needhog. ”

The girl raised her head and said. Nidhog blinks a few times, then smiles broadly and extends his hand to the girl.

“Then let's go out together. Let's go to Master Taeho together. ”

The girl holds Needhog's hand, but does not rise. Needhog sits face to face instead of forcing her to talk.

“Lots of fun out there. I'm not alone. Heda's food is delicious, and Adenma's arms are warm, and Master Tahoe is cool. Kuulin is fun, and Mr. Skazaha is strict, but actually kind. And. ”

“Don't you resent it? ”

Needhog, who was about to talk about Syria and Braki, opened his eyes wide. The girl faced Needhog with an expressionless face.

“There's a place that's so nice, that it's been stuck in the roots for over a thousand years, or in fact, for almost tens of thousands of years? The fact that you were the only one who had to? ”

Needhog's memory was no exaggeration even if he started with Latatosk. I couldn't even perceive the time until she came to Needhog herself.

But it was a terrible long time. For that long time, Needhog had to be consumed by solitude.

“Why do I have to? Why should I be the only one? Why were you born this way? ”

The girl's face became angry. An unbearable sadness was with her.

“I want to kill them all. I'm gonna kill them all. I'm gonna make it all go away. This world, I didn't allow it. ”

The girl burst into tears. At the same time, you unleash a terrifying power. It was a force that Odin feared could lead to the end of the world.

And that's when Needhog realized.

I understood.

Who you are.

How you were born.

Why I opened my eyes from the roots.

Audura

The dawn of Asgard.

Before Imir, before Odin's granddaughter Beak, there was a presence in the world.

Needhog was born of her. From the body of Audura, cast into the primordial pit of Ginnungaff, from the true existence of the ancient.

It was Needhog himself who tied Needhog to the root.

Because the ancient being that was cast into Ginkgaaf did not want Audura, who had blamed the world, to bring destruction to the world, and Audura's good will was with Nidhog.

Nidhog reminds me of Adenmaha. She hugged the girl as she always did for herself. He said, grooming her as she burst into tears.

The loneliness that has created an unimaginable amount of time has endured the agonizing memory that has overwhelmed Needhog. I didn't lose my smile.

“Come with me. And it's okay, I don't blame you. Yeah, I definitely hated it. I wanted to blame someone. But I won't. And now it's okay. We can go outside. We can start now. With Aden Maha, Master Tahoe, everyone. I've met everyone.”

I didn't want to complain. I didn't want to complain. I thought someone would laugh at me for being so stupid, but Needhog didn't want to.

Rather than grumble and destroy everything, I wanted to be with my loved ones, as I said to myself. I wanted to protect them.

“It's hard to say. But you know that, right? Because you're me.”

“Don't you resent it? ”

“I don't blame you. I like it, so I want to protect everyone. I want to be with everyone. ”

That's your choice.

Suddenly, I heard a voice. Nidhog blinks in haste, raising his head.

“Who?”

The answer never came back. But Needhog couldn't care less. It's because I heard two voices that I love so much from afar.

“Needhog!”

“Adenmaha, Master Taeho. ”

Needhog smiles widely. I turned to the girl and stood up with her. Once again, Needhog hugged himself and looked up at the sky.

“Come with me. Let's fly.”

Nidhog closes his eyes. And when she opened her eyes again, what she encountered was the face of Athenmaha and Tahoe cheering to see herself rise forcefully beyond the mist, out of the root of the world's water.

&

The Black Poison Dragon rises.

Ancient dragons soared high along the world's waters.

The whole world of Asgard has seen it. I didn't miss the Black Beautiful Dragon Scream.

The obstinate elves of Sbart Alphaheim marvel. The dwarves of La Bellir raise their hammers high and cheer for the wonders they face.

I've also seen elves in Alphaheim. Humans in Midgard were not afraid to watch a giant dragon soar through the sky. I felt the warmth of the night in the dark like darkness.

Hela smiles with Galeon. The dead smiled at the true Black Dragon who helped them the other day.

Needhog continues to fly. At last, we reach the new Asgardian, and all of Valhalla reacts like warriors of Valhalla.

“Big!”

“Oh! The Black Dragon! Black Dragon! ”

“What is that? What do you know? ”

“No, I don't! But it's amazing!”

Ragnar smiles. He taps his chest twice and raises his sword high to bless the Black Poison Dragon's cry.

Drakon Ismereos cannot keep his mouth shut.

Ekidna smiles and bites the pipe into her mouth, and Skaaza glances at Nidhog with clear eyes.

And Siri and Bragi knew. I don't know why Nidhog won't stop. How far will she fly?

“Did you see that? That's the point! He is the king of birds, after Heresbelle! ”

Hresbelg flies to face Needhog in the body of a giant bird with a big smile. Verde Polnir, who was sitting on the shoulder of such a Hresbelg, rejoiced with the Lord's smile.

The Black Poison Dragon passes to the highest branch, literally overlooking Asgard at the end of the world.

As a former ex-Audura, I saw the world.

A new Asgardian, a successor Midgard.

and then along with him is Barnheim, Alphaheim, Svard Alphaheim, De Bellir, Niflheim, and there is Jotunheim, the land of giants.

Adenmaha hugged Nidhog. Nidhog looks down at the ground, facing Adenmaha. He felt a joyful reel from the roots and joined Audura's power, determined to be the true dragon of ancient times. He tapped his chest twice and said in a straight voice.

“To Asgard and the Nine Realms. ”

Protect this world as one with the world at the beginning.

I will not tolerate the destruction that will result in the blazing fire.

It was not just for Taeho and Adenmaha. It wasn't imitating two people.

A decision as Audura.

Needhog's own will to protect the world with the power that could lead to the end of the world.

Needhog roars. Once more, he advances the world with a powerful flap.
