Amidst the crowd, shouts could be heard from the small ghouls with exposed skin. Some of them seemed to be trying to fight back, but their movements appeared hindered. The cause was Khauluc.Smoke began to envelop Khauluc's body, who was only wearing pants. He groaned in horror, trying to avoid the piercing sunlight that directly struck his body, but it was impossible for him to escape from the relentless heat radiating from the sun. The roof above them was still open."Now's the time! Kill him!" shouted one of the warriors loudly.Two Valhalla warriors swiftly approached Khauluc. Meanwhile, Alvtr, who was facing the small ghouls, left them and aimed his arrow-cup at Khauluc.Alvtr's sharp arrow pierced Khauluc's shoulder, but he continued the incantation he was uttering. The tattoo on his chest started to glow brightly."Shoot his head!" Salveig exclaimed loudly. Another warrior swung his axe vertically, and Khauluc screamed with a voice no longer a whisper.Jin Tae Kyung looked up a
In a hurry, Khauluc launched a fierce attack on Jin Tae Kyung. However, with a blazing calmness, Jin Tae Kyung waved his Runefang to defend himself. Although he managed to block Khauluc's attack, Jin Tae Kyung's hand was thrown backward due to the force of the strike.Suddenly, an explosion was heard behind Khauluc. Salveig swiftly released an arrow that hit its target. Khauluc tried to rise again, but horrifying screams echoed around him. An arrow struck his head, ending his life in an instant.Meanwhile, Alvtr, who had been observing the scene, looked back and saw Jin Tae Kyung standing there. Without hesitation, Jin Tae Kyung gracefully swung his Runefang. The sharp sword struck Khauluc's neck and continued forward. In a blink of an eye, Khauluc's head was severed from his body.The fighters witnessing this battle swallowed hard. Jin Tae Kyung's courage and skill were truly impressive. While they were still stunned, Jin Tae Kyung breathed a sigh of relief. Runefang sliced through t
Jin Tae Kyung gazed at the hammer held by Thor, while Isaac pondered something and pointed towards the burnt corpse of Maguros."If we consider compression, how big was that monster?" Isaac asked.The soldiers turned their gaze towards Maguros. Just by looking at its size, the monster was several times larger than the holy platform itself."To awaken Mjolnir, we need an Unt the size of Maguros' body," they thought."And the enemy can create Mjolnir?" one of the soldiers asked, staring sharply at Isaac. Isaac cleared his throat immediately."Hm, hmhm. Well, I'm not sure. I'm just considering the possibilities," he replied.While repeatedly clearing his throat and swearing that he wasn't lying, the soldiers began to mock him. However, Jin Tae Kyung nodded."I'm sure."Stragos was indeed powerful. He was a true monster who nearly wiped out the entire dwarf mine.However, he was still inferior compared to Mjolnir. If there was an Unt capable of creating Mjolnir within this mine, there mus
Salveig, a Valhalla warrior, looked at Jin Tae Kyung with hope in her eyes. They were in a tense situation, gazing towards Isaac, who wore a cynical smile."I will give you something better than that. Have you ever heard of dwarf blacksmiths?" Isaac asked with a smile."Dwarf blacksmiths!""Weapons made by dwarves!""Follow me!" Isaac exclaimed, leading the way with confidence.The warriors raised their heads, looking towards Alvtr, who could only manage a bitter smile. He felt that he couldn't escape it, so he nodded in response."Now, take whatever you like!" Isaac shouted as they arrived in front of the blacksmith. The warriors eagerly jumped and waited for the doors to open, rushing inside.Swords, axes, bows, shields, armor, helmets, and various other equipment were neatly arranged on the walls and furniture. There seemed to be at least a hundred items there.Even Alvtr, who was usually calm, appeared excited, walking quickly towards the blacksmith. However, Jin Tae Kyung stood s
The golden goose, embodying Valkyrie Reinhelf, flew swiftly through the sky like an eagle. This Valkyrie possessed a special lineage among the Valkyries, and she planned to fly day and night. However, her flight didn't last long. At that moment, between dawn and morning, a group of people was advancing rapidly. Alvtr saw them from a distance and didn't want to just observe from afar. He decided to fly faster towards them. For him, it was difficult to assess the situation just by looking from a distance. The group was incredibly fast, beyond comparison with the speed of ordinary soldiers. However, Alvtr couldn't determine their numbers. Thick, large fog enveloped them. Alvtr saw the fog moving at an abnormal speed, and he wondered. Should he get closer and take the risk or try to estimate the enemy's numbers based on the size of the fog? Alvtr closed his eyes, pondering intensely. Initially, he would have chosen to boldly enter the fog, but it was not possible in this place. The limi
Ransgrids, a Valkyrie who arrived in Valhalla alongside Jin Tae Kyung, informed him that Heda had come to see him. She handed over the bodies to some Odin Legion warriors and led the group. "Over here," Ransgrids said, leading the group to a large room. The room was filled with alcohol and fresh meat, as well as comfortable and warm beds. "Don't drink too much," Ransgrids gave them a brief warning before leaving the room. Everyone turned their gaze to Captain Alvtr, and she shrugged her shoulders after seeing her bed covered by curtains. "I'll go wash up first. As Valkyrie Ingrid said, don't drink too much. You've all done well today." "The captain has done well too." "For Asgard and the nine planets." "We'll save some food for you, Captain, so you can enjoy it leisurely." With permission from Alvtr, the warriors chose alcohol and meat over washing themselves. Jin Tae Kyung did the same. "Let's eat first," he thought. He had hardly eaten anything since morning. After finishing
And the rider fell, screaming. Jin Tae Kyung mounted the wyvern, replacing the previous rider.[Myth: The Dragon Tamer]The wyvern was startled but eventually accepted its new owner. Unlike the previous Maguros, even the letters adorning the wyvern's body turned green."Great!" Jin Tae Kyung exclaimed with enthusiasm. This wyvern was equipped with a saddle and reins.Naturally, he adjusted his position. Jin Tae Kyung knew what to do while gripping the reins."Jin Tae Kyung!" Alvtr shouted.The wyvern suddenly veered and flew towards the fortress, with Alvtr bravely leaping onto its back. She sat behind Jin Tae Kyung and began shooting her slingshot at the harpies. Four harpies instantly screamed and fell to the ground.The wyvern flapped its wings once more, flying higher. Jin Tae Kyung spotted something in the distance. His eyes caught the sight of an enemy wyvern rider launching an attack towards them.[Rage][Wyvern Bearer]How would he retaliate? Would he command the wyvern to bre
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
"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
