Jin Tae Kyung strode confidently towards the Siri troops, his firm steps leading him to Solveig. The gaze in Solveig's eyes emitted curiosity and astonishment, as if wondering what was happening.
"Speak," Solveig said firmly, gesturing to Jin Tae Kyung to explain the purpose of his arrival.With a gaze full of curiosity, Jin Tae Kyung began to express his question, "What blessings are bestowed by the Ullr Legion?"Jin Tae Kyung's eyes were fixed on the brooch pinned to Solveig's chest. The brooch was in the shape of a bow and arrow, seemingly symbolizing the Ullr Legion.'This should be enough, right?' Jin Tae Kyung thought, slightly unsure if his question would reveal the hidden secret.Jin Tae Kyung sat in the feasting hall of Valhalla, the gathering place of mighty and powerful Norse gods. He was a warrior who had recently joined the legion of fighters. However, his knowledge of Valhalla was very limited. He had no idea about the areasThe scorching sun radiated its dazzling light, creating reflections on the thunderous battlefield. Strong winds roared amid the shouts and clashes of distant weaponry. Jin Tae Kyung, a strict and experienced commander, led 2,000 soldiers under his command.The group of soldiers was divided into 19 skilled and spirited squads. In their current attack, 12 squads advanced steadily towards the front of the towering black fortress. Although their numbers reached almost a thousand, each soldier was the best of the best, equipped with unusual siege weapons. The sight of sturdy siege towers made of steel advancing with equal strength created an impressive scene amidst the battlefield.Behind the attacking force, five reserve squads cleverly hid, ready to launch the next assault. One of them was a special unit tasked with guarding their commander, Ransgrid. The unit carefully maintained the positions of the reserve squads strategically placed.However, there was one squad operating beyond the
Tae Kyung's celebration of victory was short-lived as the battle resumed, led once again by Alvtr.The fighters sprinted swiftly across the chaotic battlefield towards the towering metal structure. Despite most of them being on board for the first time, they felt no fear as they entered. They were the chosen warriors gathered for this dangerous mission.Tae Kyung reluctantly stepped into the structure, almost forced to do so, reminiscent of his first arrival in Valhalla. After taking a seat in an empty chair, he closed his eyes, attempting to calm himself. The horrifying scenes of battle still vividly played in his memory."Oh, Idun..." Tae Kyung murmured softly. He had only seen her once, but the beautiful and mystical name of Idun would never leave his thoughts. In his prayer, Tae Kyung hoped they would meet again after this mission was over.However, disregarding Tae Kyung's prayer, the Valkyries' shouts outside the structure broke the silence."Safety devices engaged! Do not move
Jin Tae Kyung and Salveig stood in the middle of an open field filled with giant insects. These insects were enormous, with bodies resembling a cross between ants and grasshoppers. Above Jin Tae Kyung's head, words were engraved on these insects, indicating that they were the commanders.Jin Tae Kyung, who possessed a special ability, could distinguish the commanders from the ordinary insects. He saw red lines that set the commanders apart from their allies. The red color seemed to create a tense atmosphere, reminiscent of the Dark Ages.Without hesitation, Jin Tae Kyung grabbed Salveig's arm, who stood beside him. He wanted to share his important discovery with his female companion. Salveig, taken aback by this, was surprised by Jin Tae Kyung's words."Salveig! I can distinguish the commanders!" Jin Tae Kyung exclaimed enthusiastically."I'm sorry, I can't distinguish them either... What?!" Salveig replied almost instinctively. However, surprise was evident on her face when she saw t
Jin Tae Kyung held his slingshot in the air, surrounded by giant insects. This weapon was the one he had used before receiving the Runefang, the legendary weapon that now belonged to him.In a critical situation, Jin Tae Kyung quickly pointed at one of the insects with his bare hand. He commanded Alvtr, his companion, to attack with his slingshot. With a focused gaze, Alvtr pulled the slingshot's trigger and released an arrow that hit the giant insect's head with speed and precision. A blue spark flew from the tip of the arrow."Nice!" Jin Tae Kyung exclaimed, praising their successful attack.The weapon they used was the Thunderbolt slingshot, famous for its incredibly deadly effect. Though just a rumor, its name had caught the attention of weapon developers with its miraculous abilities.However, amidst this battle, Jin Tae Kyung realized that their weapons were not the most important factor. Facing forty giant insects, he knew that the strength and spirit of the warriors were the p
Jin Tae Kyung and ten Ullr troops swiftly moved through hidden corridors. They tried not to be detected by the Gnolls guarding the area. Alvtr, the leader of the troop, gave clear instructions to all members to remain cautious and keep their presence concealed."Here! There's a hidden passage here!" exclaimed Salveig, one of the Ullr troops, while manipulating a device attached to the wall. The device opened a hidden door, revealing a dark pathway. This place might have been designed with hidden doors for security purposes.The hidden pathway felt like a rarely used cave. Spider webs and dust surrounded it, indicating that the place had been abandoned for a long time."Let's go!" shouted Salveig, swiftly lighting a torch and leading the way through the hidden path. The path occasionally branched out, but Salveig confidently choose the right direction.He was truly reliable. He must have memorized this entire map in his mind, thought Jin Tae Kyung.However, after running for five minut
Jin Tae Kyung stood in front of the control room door with uncertainty, but he nodded his head. For him, the action he was about to take held a greater meaning. He felt warmth fill him, as if he had placed his hand on warm water after absorbing the runes from the monster.The confirmed assist button indicated that his action was successful. Jin Tae Kyung and Salveig looked at each other, then released their grip on each other's hands. It was then that a beam of light emanated from one of the ornaments on the wall, and suddenly a woman appeared before them."Nice to meet you. My name is Black Fortress," the woman greeted them, bearing a striking resemblance to a Valkyrie, with long black hair.Jin Tae Kyung smiled and said, "It worked, didn't it?""It seems so," Salveig replied.However, their joy was interrupted when Salveig nervously commanded the holographic Valkyrie, "Black Fortress, open the door."The woman nodded and answered, "Understood. I will open the door."However, a mista
Jin Tae Kyung was surprised by Szaargom Claygaze's unexpected movement. He didn't have much time to react as the attack came swiftly. In a panic, he tried to dodge the blow by leaping backward."Idiot! Do you think I'll just rely on this hammer?" Szaargom Claygaze said, laughing mockingly.Jin Tae Kyung tried to assess the situation he was facing. Without a weapon, he had to find another way to fight this giant gnoll. He pondered for a moment, carefully observing Szaargom Claygaze's every move."Maybe I should find his weak spot," Jin Tae Kyung muttered to himself. He noticed a slight vulnerability in Szaargom Claygaze's attacks."Hey, Szaargom Claygaze! It seems like you're relying too much on your physical strength. But do you know that strength won't always help you?" Jin Tae Kyung challenged.Szaargom Claygaze smirked cynically. "You speak like a wise person, but prove it to me, you cowardly brat!"With bold steps, Jin Tae Kyung began launching his attacks. He evaded Szaargom Clay
A fierce battle between the forces led by Salveig and the ferocious monster, Xygvoc Brinedeath, raged on with intensity. The previous defeat of Szaargom Claygaze's troops turned out to be just the beginning of this larger confrontation. Amidst the warfare, an exploding arrow struck Xygvoc Brinedeath's shoulder. The shoulder plate he wore came loose and was flung far away. Xygvoc Brinedeath cursed angrily, swinging his mighty hammer. The sound of air being cleaved resonated as the hammer moved with tremendous force. Swiftly, Salveig rolled on the ground to evade the attack, then raised her sling. Suddenly, Jin Tae Kyung swiftly darted forward. Without uttering a shout, Jin Tae Kyung ran low and fast, harnessing the power of his myth. His eyes quickly identified the enemy's weakness amidst the chaotic battle. Salveig noticed Jin Tae Kyung's movement and without hesitation unleashed another exploding arrow, this time aimed directly at Xygvoc Brinedeath. A tremendous explosion occurred!
