Amidst the chaos of a fierce battle, the shouts of the soldiers echoed through the sky. They cheered loudly, witnessing Jin Tae Kyung's extraordinary feats, capturing the attention of the remaining harpies and wyvern riders.With a sharp gaze, Tae Kyung crafted a new spear. He fixed his determined gaze on the next target and kicked his wyvern, propelling it to soar once again.However, at that moment, Tae Kyung felt something different. He sensed another presence within himself. The dragon knight's spear, Calhagar, which he had created, brought about an incredible transformation."Synchronization level: 10%," Tae Kyung whispered to himself, realizing that he had acquired new powers.The soldiers could not forget the name of the man they knew.Calhagar, the dragon knight.The strongest man in the Dark Era.The air split and exploded. Tae Kyung could feel it as his wyvern majestically crossed the sky. He briefly closed his eyes to deepen his experience.Tae Kyung remembered the words of
In the silence that darkened after the powerful explosion, a heavy buzzing resonated through the air. The sound of blunt weapons brought down hidden walls, concealed from sight. The ground shook, and Reginleif felt a deep, stabbing pain, squeezing her heart."The magnitude of this attack is astonishing!" exclaimed Reginleif, her eyes surveying the ruins that stretched around her.She could only hold on for a little longer. If she could master the Black Fortress rune magic as she desired, she would certainly use it when the gnolls unleashed their assault.The giant raised his blunt weapon, paying no attention to anything. Valkyrie Ingrid, in a hurry, threw a pleading look at Ransgrids.However, Ransgrids wasn't given the permission to allow the Valkyrie to descend into the battlefield. She bit her lip, then glanced briefly at the black raven named Hugin, who was keenly observing the battlefield.Then, Ransgrids opened her mouth. And at that moment, the giant's second blow struck the Bl
Alvtr stood firmly in the middle of the battlefield. His grayness radiated a powerful aura of strength. Ordinary attacks felt helpless against him, even arrows that were shot could not pierce his body and were simply deflected.Then, with agility, Alvtr leaped down from the wyvern's back and rolled on the ground. In an instant, he rose and stared sharply at Salveig. Without words, Alvtr skillfully extended his bow.Time was running out. Alvtr stood on the handrail of the fortress, while Salveig stood behind him, pulling him tightly with both hands gripping the bow.Tae Kyung, who was in a high place, saw the two figures and realized something important.Arrows flew through the air at high speed. These were not ordinary arrows; they continuously changed direction mid-flight.Thud!One of the arrows pierced the giant's eye and exploded with tremendous force. That spot was unprotected by the giant's hard, stone-like skin. The giant screamed in pain with a terrifying sound, rolling on the
The bloody battle amidst the grassy plains strewn with gnoll corpses had come to an end, victorious for the Valhalla warriors. Despite being outnumbered by half their enemies, their perseverance had overcome the challenge. Alvtr, a Valkyrie adorned in a costume woven from the scales of white dragons, felt exhausted yet captivated by the refreshing expanse of the grassy plains amidst the weariness of her body."We've won," she whispered softly, humbling herself amidst the awe-inspiring panorama.Reginleif, a Valkyrie hailing from the noblest lineage among her fellow Valkyries, smiled contentedly. Her serene aura and enchanting beauty always radiated."We'll need time to clean up these gnoll corpses," Reginleif murmured playfully, gazing at the sky. News of the gathering murder of crows had started to spread.Alvtr lifted her head and observed the murder of crows, searching for the presence of Hugin among them. Unfortunately, she didn't spot the raven. Hugin might have gone to another b
Valkyrie Ingrids shouted calmly once again."Warrior Jin Tae Kyung!""Yes!" Jin Tae Kyung answered. The warriors all became calm, and Ingrids, who was nervous in the atmosphere, waited for a moment and then opened her mouth."Mee...""Meeting!"The warriors shouted faster than Ingrids."Uhahahahahah!""Idun!""Idun warriors!""Valkyrie Idun!"It wasn't envy or resentment. The warriors truly enjoyed this situation.Ingrids, whose words were halted by the shouts of two thousand warriors, looked stunned. Brunhild, peering from behind Ingrids, looked even more astonished."What is this?"She had expected something like this because of what happened two days ago, but something beyond her expectations had occurred."A! Mee! Ting!""A! Mee! Ting!"The warriors shouted. The initially mismatched voices merged into one and shook the fortress."Idun!""I also want to join the Idun legion!""Uhahahaha! Thor won't spare you!""For Idun!""For the beautiful Goddess of Life!""You are a beautiful Va
"There are no rules stating that synchronization levels will increase simultaneously. And this time, the length and fame of each myth vary. It's truly strange if the synchronization level increases at the same rate," Jin Tae Kyung whispered uncertainly."Can the resolution also increase?" Jin Tae Kyung asked with doubt in his heart, seeking assurance from Brunhild.Brunhild looked at Jin Tae Kyung wisely, her gaze penetrating into his soul. "I feel like you can do more with them," Brunhild answered, her voice gentle like the wind blowing over the meadow.With the eyes of a dragon, Jin Tae Kyung felt a flowing power within him. The warrior's attacks grew stronger, accompanied by thunderous gusts of wind. He knew that he had the potential to create a weapon more formidable than Runefang, a weapon that could accomplish myths with brilliance."I hope I can achieve it," Jin Tae Kyung murmured, imagining the courageous victory he would achieve.Jin Tae Kyung nodded, indicating the agreement
Jin Tae Kyung gazed at Brunhild with hopeful eyes. He had just expressed his desire to return to the Idun Legion after his final expedition with the Valhalla Legion. Brunhild furrowed her brow momentarily but then continued speaking."After you return, you will be promoted to a low-ranking soldier. To achieve that rank, you need various accumulated services and runes, but you have far surpassed that."Jin Tae Kyung nodded, feeling relieved to hear the news. However, a question about the test he had to undergo crossed his mind."No tests to go through?""No, not when you become a low-ranking soldier. It can be said that achieving services and collecting runes in itself is a test."Jin Tae Kyung laughed at Brunhild's explanation. The image of Valhalla soldiers taking tests and interviews made him chuckle."I can't imagine them doing questionnaires or interviews." Jin Tae Kyung laughed.Brunhild joined in the laughter and continued speaking. "There will be more soldiers promoted this tim
Jin Tae Kyung felt his heart pounding as his name was called. He couldn't hide the overflowing joy and pride within him. With steady steps and a heart full of enthusiasm, he stepped forward, greeted by cheers and applause from the warriors around him.On the stone table, Ransgrid and Reginleif smiled as they witnessed Jin Tae Kyung's spirit and dedication. Ransgrid raised his cup and congratulated, "Congratulations, Jin Tae Kyung! You have shown extraordinary courage and strength in this battle."Jin Tae Kyung smiled and saluted Ransgrid and Reginleif. He felt proud to be noticed by the graceful gods and Valkyries before him. He felt even more motivated to continue training and become a stronger warrior.Reginleif continued the announcement, "Not only Jin Tae Kyung, but there are also several other fighters who have shown remarkable progress in this battle. They will receive special rewards and the opportunity to train at a higher level."The fighters whose names were called stepped f
"Charge!" Tae Ho shouted, his voice echoing through the chaotic battlefield. It shook the blue sky and resonated across the vast grasslands. He leaped forward with his Thunderbolt arrows, streaking through the air with lightning speed, showering the sky and striking down any daring enemy that approached.Terrifying foes, such as giant gnolls and orc creatures emerging from behind rocks, flooded the battlefield. The battle grew hotter, with spilled blood and clashing swords. Despite the fierce fight put up by Odin's warriors, relentlessly attacking with their gleaming swords, it was evident that the enemy outnumbered them greatly.Alvtr, a resilient female warrior, observed the worsening situation. She realized the difficulty of the battle and the presence of these dreadful creatures that had just appeared. With determined eyes, she turned to Tae Ho."Tae Ho, face them! I will try to destroy their point of attack!" Alvtrexclaimed firmly, her voice resonatin
In the deep darkness, Truram, the Dark Giant, sat gracefully amidst the darkness he himself created. He was one of the five Giants loyal to the Giant King. In the stillness of the night, Truram lifted his head and gazed with piercing eyes across the universe. "Soon your presence shall be revealed, Gruktheus," murmured Truram in a husky voice. He clenched his fingers and slowly began to move them. The intricate and boundless webs connecting all of Asgard to Yggdrasil trembled, resembling the complex webs of a spider. In an instant, a faint voice crawled into Truram's ears. A colossal moth flew through the darkness and whispered important news. Gruktheus, the Giant of Power, one of the five Giants was on the move. Truram raised his eyebrows slowly. He pondered for a moment, trying to understand the sudden motive behind Gruktheus's actions. Truram's loyal attendants nearby dared not disturb his fervent thoughts. They knew Truram would find the answers hims
Jin Tae Kyung and Ragnars sat at a long table in an ancient wooden-walled room. Between them lay a weapon that was the focus of their conversation, Runefang. Jin Tae Kyung carefully gazed at the weapon, feeling that something remained undisclosed."Jin Tae Kyung, this weapon is truly remarkable," Ragnars said, crossing his arms over his chest. "However, I sense a difference within it. There's something distinct about its power."Jin Tae Kyung was taken aback by Ragnars' words. Until now, he believed that he had successfully concealed the fact that the weapon had been manipulated with additional pieces. He tightly gripped the weapon's handle and replied, "Ragnars, Runefang is indeed extraordinary. But I'm confident it's just a magically enhanced weapon."Ragnars nodded, but a hint of suspicion lingered behind his smile. Ragnars was wise and intelligent, making it difficult for Jin Tae Kyung to hide the truth from him."Look, Jin Tae Kyung," Ragnars said, pointing at the weapon. "This
Jin Tae Kyung and Ragnars sat in a quiet room, after a tiring session of magic and rune training. They looked at each other with hopeful eyes, anticipating an intriguing conversation. Jin Tae Kyung was eagerly waiting for answers to his captivating question."Ragnars, I'm really curious to know what sets apart a low-ranking warrior from a mid-ranking warrior," Jin Tae Kyung finally initiated the conversation. "What makes the difference?"Ragnars smiled wisely and gazed at Jin Tae Kyung with meaningful eyes. "The main difference, Jin Tae Kyung, lies in the power bestowed by the Gods," he answered with a melodious voice.Jin Tae Kyung nodded, though his curiosity was not completely satisfied. "But, are there more specific differences? What makes them stronger?"Ragnars chuckled softly. "Ah, Jin Tae Kyung, you always want to know everything," he said, tidying his thick beard."However, I cannot give you the answers you seek. Knowing in detail about the strength of high-ranking warriors c
Jin Tae Kyung greeted Dewi Idun's answer politely, but his gaze was filled with doubt. After a moment of contemplation, he finally decided to ask the question that had been bothering him."Dewi Idun, there's something I would like to ask you," Tae Kyung said humbly.With a gentle look, Dewi Idun tilted her head slightly, giving him permission to continue with his question.Carefully, Tae Kyung pulled out an unfamiliar piece of sword from his cloak and placed it in front of Dewi Idun. He recounted the story of the mysterious fragment, just as he had shared it with Brunhilds earlier. Idun began examining it attentively."This piece does indeed possess a powerful force embedded within it. However, I'm sorry to say that I can't immediately determine which god it originated from," Dewi Idun wisely replied.Tae Kyung pondered, realizing that even Dewi Idun, a goddess known for her wisdom, didn't have a direct answer about the object. However, he also felt relieved as Idun didn't sense any m
Indeed, the gift was the wings of a flying horse. However, in Jin Tae Kyung's mind, he had no intention of wearing them himself. Instead, the gift should be given to one of his comrades. "Captain Alvtr might enjoy this ability, don't you think? And of course, there's Sveldr too." But not only Alvtr and Sveldr, anyone who fought alongside him deserved this gift. "Hmm, but why should I ride on Sveldr?" he whispered to himself, his thoughts swirling, considering all the possibilities that could be done with that gift. A cheerful smile blossomed on the lips of the joyful Goddess Idun. "That only applies if you wear them. These wings enhance the abilities of anyone who wears them but within reasonable limits. You can't fly or fight beyond your capabilities. This gift will only enhance the abilities of someone who already has the foundation for it." "In other words, this gift strengthens existing abilities but does not create abilities that never existed before." Jin Tae Kyung began to
In the serene meeting room of Valhalla, Jin Tae Kyung sat gracefully among the members of the Ullr Legion. They had just completed an astounding expedition, and now it was time to socialize. Among them, Sveldr, wise and sincere, couldn't help but praise Jin Tae Kyung's achievements. "By the gods, Warrior of Idun, Jin Tae Kyung. Your accomplishments in this expedition are truly extraordinary. I will personally inform Ullr about your brilliant achievements so that you receive the recognition you deserve." With great humility, Jin Tae Kyung responded with a modest smile and tapped his chest politely. "Thank you." However, deep in his heart, Jin Tae Kyung regarded those words as mere formalities. For him, his duty as a warrior was to protect and support the Ullr Legion without ever thinking about personal recognition. But Sveldr held a different perspective. He realized that their success in this mission would not have been possible without Jin Tae Kyung's presence. A sense of gratit
The part of the world that will be destroyed remains the same, but in that moment, Odin opens his single eye suddenly. Something catches his attention."What did you say earlier?" Odin asks, his voice filling the space between the magnificent tree's roots.Mimir knew precisely which part Odin was pointing at. Without reading any other clues, Mimir answered clearly."86,4 percent."Odin rose from his seat with determined steps. The numbers changed. Changes in numbers weren't unfamiliar to Odin, but what mattered was the direction of those changes.Destruction drew nearer with increasing likelihood, and although there were occasional setbacks, in the end, it would consume everything. However, this time, an unprecedented change occurred.The probability decreased. Although it was only one in ten thousand, there was a decrease compared to before.Approaching Mimir's head, Odin moved closer. The head sat in front of a wide stone, shrouded in mystery, and Mimir stared at Odin with a piercin
Jin Tae Kyung sat alone inside the house while Brunhilds and Ragnars conversed outside. The atmosphere was quiet, and Jin Tae Kyung began to reflect on the experiences he had gone through. He thought about the classes taught by Brunhilds and wondered if theoretical learning was more effective than learning directly from a Valhalla warrior like Ragnars. "It's really difficult for me to understand all of this with just theory," muttered Jin Tae Kyung as he gazed at the old and damaged sword in his hand. Although he knew it was an epic-ranked item, he didn't know how to use it because he only had the hilt. However, there was something special about the sword that was hard to explain. Jin Tae Kyung felt a strong connection between himself and the sword, perhaps because his experience as a professional gamer gave him sensitive senses. Jin Tae Kyung carefully examined the piece of the sword. He realized that it wasn't like an ordinary item. In the Valhalla, there were no epic-ranked items
