Frenzy Troll

The group senses that it will be difficult to get out of Utgard Castle Tower. It was because there were too many giants inside the Castle Tower.

Somehow, I managed to hide in an empty room in the Castle Tower.

Jason looks out his window at the battlefield.

You hear no more gunfire. The two soldiers were just staring at each other. I'm too tired for everyone. The ground was invisible to the dead giants and human corpses around the collapsed walls.

Despite all that loss, the fortress of Utgard did not eventually fall. Jason became anxious. Giant warriors will be back to rest in the fortress soon, so I had to leave as soon as possible.

Jason suddenly misses Mossy. If it had been a good wizard, we could have escaped with a few spells.

Heimdall was able to use magic, but he didn't have the runes he needed.

I had no choice. Jason asks Odin.

“You pay for your runes more than anyone else, right? Is there no way to clear this up? ”

Odin dares to speak.

“There are many useful runes, but it's hard to do the right spelling with this drowsiness. ”

“Can we cut the rope, then? ”

“Yes, but Glaiphnir cannot be cut by preliminary means. It would be easier to cut the throat than to cut the rope. Roland?"

Roland bows his head and shows an example. The frenzy is turning away and reason is returning.

“Yes, I do. ”

“Cut my throat. Then remove the rope and attach it again. ”

Heimdall stares at Odin surprisingly. The old man who blasphemed Gear's coming to save his life because he couldn't believe his best friend.

Roland nods, weeping bitterly.

Odin slits his throat. A clean cut surface was created. Shouldn't be too much trouble.

As a result, Roland loosens the rope around his throat, then puts Odin's severed neck up and prays. To Odin, and to himself.

Amaric raises a healing prayer next to Odin. Odin's wretched body begins to recover.

After a while, the eyes and tongues that popped out like Odin's frogs returned to their places and their bloodshot colors were restored. I couldn't help but notice that my voice is still coming back. The majesty.

“It's been centuries since fresh air cleared my head. It's all thanks to you, Roland. ”

Odin's words bring Roland to his knees, weeping. Odin smiles lovingly. We know that Lollan's tears are not coming from her emotions.

Tears of sadness. Did you just cut your master's throat? If that's not the case...

Roland opens his mouth.

“Lord Odin. You said you'd grant me a wish if I rescued you. If you ever leave here · · · · · · · You can bring them back to life · · · · who disappeared from the war with Loki · ·”

Odin hangs up on the way.

“Don't make me a godless man who doesn't keep his promises, Roland. That's impossible. It won't be like the shadows that disappeared once again. ”

Lollan blushes without a sound. A moment of silence passed.

Odin clears his throat for discomfort. He checked his vocal cords, and it seemed fine. Not enough to remember the spell.

Odin finally licks his lips. After a while, a red spear flew into Odin's hand. Everyone recognized it as archer.

The rune shines from Kunir's Spear. At that moment, a rune rests on everyone's body. Everyone's body is now invisible, and the smell and footsteps are gone.

Everyone leaves the Castle Tower before Odin's spell is lifted.

* * * * * * *

When I returned to the camp of the expedition, it was not a good place to rest. There are wounded all over the barracks, and the bodies can't be collected separately. Too much, too much.

Looking at the landscape, Lollan's heart became heavy.

However, the commanders who welcomed Lollan did not seem particularly discouraged. Once inside the command post, Roland sees the bright faces of the commanders.

Now that the commanders can tell their tales to the Giant Country when they return home, they are guaranteed to the afterlife. There was no reason to be sad.

The commanders surround Roland with a smile.

“Lord Roland, you're all right! Giants complained that their king was dead.

In Bojoa's words, Roland nods quietly.

“I knew it!"

As the commanders stretch their legs, Bojoa grunts and flatters.

You turn your back on them and Roland returns to his barracks. The barracks are no longer narrow. Heimdall and the summons are gone, and Odin hides himself under a spell.

All I could see was three. Roland, Jason, and Amaric.

Odin's voice echoes behind his back.

“I have only one thing left to return to Asgard. ”

I told you how to get back before Heimdall disappeared.

If you want to go to Asgard, you need to climb the world water again from here. It's not easy. Upstairs is another realm of monsters and giants.

However, there is also a frog territory upstairs, and the way Heimdall came down here was through that realm. As ambassador to Asgard, he was guaranteed passage.

Heimdall said as he disappeared.

‘I mean, if you're as clumsy as I am, you can pass. ’

Odin was aware of the transformation spell. Odin may be clumsy enough to climb to the top if he wishes, but it was an unsettling way. The shape-shifting of the mystic arts cannot be complete.

Luckily, Roland knew the best shapeshifter.

To meet the shapeshifter, Odin sits quietly and concentrates his mind on the inside. And in my mind, I encountered a shapeshifter.

Meanwhile, Lolan and Jason face each other.

It was Jason who opened his mouth first.

“It's finally over, Roland. ”

“Yes, Iason · · · · · · · ·"

“It's not Iasson. Call me Jason."

That's what Roland tried to argue with.

“Your real name is Iasson. Just like I'm Roland, not a phenomenon. ”

“No, you're a reality. ”

“My soul belongs to Roland. Your soul belongs to Iasson. ”

“Soul either way! What is the soul that determines who we are? Who decides that the soul is who it is? That's only part of the human race! Like an arm and a leg or a fingernail. ”

“Then what determines identity? ”

“Personality. So the mind. What was the name of the book in terms of personality or what was it called? It was written by Harvard, but I guess I was right about the soul being written by a great guy. ”

Lollang laughs as if it were absurd.

“I don't think you preached in that book that one point of view is truth. ”

Jason kept saying,

“I did, motherfucker. But you remember that book, don't you? ”

“Yes."

“I have a clear memory of that, too. Very, very clear! I can remember which Internet bookstore that book was purchased from, and whether I was detained for buying a useless book. Those memories are all fake and Valhalla's Iason is real? I'm a Korean Jason, and to me, you're a reality. At least you and I have an adventure. It's not Valhalla's. ”

“Not now. ”

“Maybe. Maybe half. Are you so happy to save Odin now? Or is it 'cause they're all gone and Carl's gone? I think he's a candidate. If you're just sad about the disappearance of the shadow, it's a phenomenon to me. Koreans who were colleagues with them. ”

Roland shuts up.

Over time, a raven walks into the barracks. Jason opens his mouth and greets you in the midst of a blemish.

“Greetings. Morgana. ”

Eventually, the crow became a woman.

Morgana glances at Odin and says,

“Odin, you want to make a deal? ”

Odin replies.

“Yes. I will return your sacred rune as a Valkyrie, and I will reward you with other worthy souls." ”

“In return, I need you to transform me. It's not a bad condition. ”

“Do you agree to the deal? ”

“So here I am. ”

That's when Jason stepped in.

“So you don't know? It's the dragon, right? ”

Morgana smiles at Jason. To be precise, he looked at the wand he had given me.

“Yes, why? ”

“I read it in a book. You said Morgana took the souls of the strangers who served under her command to Valhalla. Is that true? ”

“Still.”

“Then flying everyone up there without the transformation is · · · · · ·”

“No. It's dangerous. Loki's dragons are roaming the grounds so the gods can't even come down here. ”

Jason remembers that Baldur on Slafnir didn't just fly in. So Jason shuts up, but Roland talks again.

“Morgana · · · · · · · Since you are a former Valkyrie, can't you collect souls? · · · · · · · If you can even collect a fragmented soul, · · · · can't you just pick up a scattered soul · · · · ·”

I can't believe you asked me to do something else without rushing home. Odin frowns, but his discomfort remains hidden in the backyard. Thanks to this, Roland and Morgana are able to continue talking.

“At what cost?"

Morgana asks, and Roland gives you a difficult answer.

“Whatever"

Morgana nods shortly.

“Let's say you get paid later. Spirits scattered? You can find them. Of course, we won't be able to find them all. The speed of the soul is different. Then I'll pick it up before it's gone. ”

Then Morgana leaves the barracks.

After a while, Morgana claimed that she had rescued a golden soul.

“Arthur, I heard you asked the soul for a name. Is that your colleague? ”

Roland opens his eyes wide.

“Yes! Where are you now? ”

“I absorbed it. Don't get me wrong. It's the only way to move a soul. I'll take good care of it, and I'll send it to Valhalla when Loki's monsters are removed and heaven is at peace. So that's it, right? ”

Roland nods eagerly.

Then I was ready to go back.

First, Jason summoned Heimdall. Morgana transfers the image of Heimdall to Odin. Thus, there was one Heimdall, large and small.

The great Heimdall, Odin, said.

“Say goodbye to your masked colleague, Roland. ”

“Are you leaving right away? ”

“Maybe not. I thought Utgardaloki was murdered. We don't know when the Frost Giants will stop the Apostle's passage. We need to get back here as soon as possible. ”

* * * * * * *

Roland confronts Amaric.

Too many heroes, including Mozi, have just died. So we didn't share an hour of fun with each other or give or receive a heartfelt gospel.

“It was an honor to be with you. ”

Amaric opens his mouth and Roland receives his word.

“This way. It's been an honor. Amaric, I'm sorry I didn't give you a golden apology. Whenever possible · · · · · · · ·"

“I keep telling you, that's fine. What more could this leper want? After spending time with the warriors of Valhalla, I've now tasted the glory of rescuing Jesus. ”

But like you said, Amaric's face is not wet with emotion. In this short period of time, Amaric has seen too many bad shapes of the gods. He will continue to be a priest, but his faith will lead to a more objective form.

So Amaric did not pray for the blessings of the gods. Instead, I prayed for another authority to say goodbye.

“I wish you a reunion with the great knights. I hope to see you again in Valhalla someday. ”

“When I do, I'll run barefoot to greet you. ”

It wasn't until then that Amaric smiled.

Seeing that, Roland apologizes.

I remember that Lollang recruited Amaric for the first time. I welcomed the lepers with an old man because I wanted a dedicated, subordinate colleague who wouldn't pay much else.

But I couldn't get the golden apple I promised.

I wanted to say a lot, but I didn't have a lot of time. They hugged each other.

Soon after, Roland returns to Odin's side, looking like Heimdall.

Morgana, who was waiting, put a powerful transformation spell on Lolland. Go back to heaven and eat the golden apple or be strong enough not to let go.

Finally, Morgana tried to put a spell on Jason.

But Jason slapped me.

“I'm good. I'm not going. ”

Odin raises his eyes and asks.

“You're staying in Midgard? ”

“Yes, Odin. What would I do if I were in heaven? I'm sorry. I can't even beat Frey. ”

“If you're tired of bells under Frey, you won't have to. You, too, have devoted yourself to my salvation, and I will give you my reward. I will claim you as warrior of Valhalla in my name. Iasson.”

Jason denied it.

“My name is Jason. ”

Odin frowns and thinks.

Odin knew of the visions that ruled Valhalla's warriors. Maybe the vision hasn't been solved yet.

Odin said.

“The gloomy nightmare is over. Now you have to wake up from your dreams and embrace reality. ”

Jason shakes his head. And then he said,

“The last time for me was not a nightmare. It was an adventure.It was a difficult but enjoyable adventure, and I will continue. ”

Odin finally accepted the decision. We didn't have to take her anyway.

Jason looks at Roland.

“Roland? With the king murdered and his people enraged, now the Frostgardians march on Asgard? ”

“Perhaps. That's how Ragnarök will begin. ”

Jason looks at Odin and says,

“In the stories we know, they all died as ragnarok. Einherjar, the warrior of Valhalla, was exterminated without a mention of defeating any namesake monsters. If Ragnarok is really coming, I hope you can change his story. ”

“Me? How? ”

“In any way. I don't want you to die for nothing. I don't want you to be the mythical extra. And I hope that our adventure will not fall into the great trolling that brought about our destruction. You make sure you don't, Roland. ”

Odin doesn't know the meaning of the word, so he doesn't intervene in the conversation. I just watched for a while. I just wanted to come home early for a while, but I decided to show my gratitude. They both deserved Odin's forgiveness.

Roland said.

“Legend has it that Ragnarök's army has invaded the land? Then you will fight on the ground. ”

“Yes. I will protect your sex change acolytes in the event of any circumstance. ”

“Because he's a descendant of Medea? ”

“No, I just wanted to. ”

Jason was wearing the knife he received from Roland. Princess Bondi Osma gave it to Lollan, and she said it was passed on to the Mediahns, but that name was not passed on.

My guess is that this sword was probably the knife of the old hero Iasson. Not even a name to commemorate, but a throwaway knife.

The two shook hands and said goodbye.

Lollang finally hugs Amaric again, and then finally stands beside Odin. Then I walked out to the stairs upstairs with him.

* * * * * * *

The Froggers have accepted Loki's insistence that we should advance to Asgard at least immediately. But before accepting the military alliance, Loki demanded that the dead king be brought back to life by Loki's power, and Loki was not pleased with his request. It's impossible, and not when the king of the pacifists is resurrected.

So he took the power of his daughter, Hel, to use something more like necromancy than resurrection. He breathed on Utgardaloki's corpse for only a short time.

Given a short time, the Giant King bequeathed his will to the warriors around him.

“Never get involved with that ragnarok. ”

A frog warrior said.

“We will avenge the king. You will pay for your humiliation with the hands of the gods. ”

“I don't need my revenge! With that little Loki chattering, if Ragnarok's forces advance, only the gods will face an end, and our people will have eternal peace. How sweet can an apocalypse war be? We're all gonna die! And the gods, and that little Loki, and those little fuckers! We don't need to be part of the destruction of our own kind. So don't ever interfere-, answer me! You will not disregard the king's maintenance. ”

Eventually, the froggy warrior replied.

“Of course, if that's what you want, we'll follow. King."

Utgardalocki smiles. He wants to bring out the last of the Blessing Blessings, but he can't. Loki, who could not hear his unhappy will, forced his soul off the land.

Loki struggles to hide his anger.

“Are you sure you want to continue the peace treaty? By the king's will?"

But the Frost Giant's answer was enough to make Loki's anger go away.

Frosty said with a stiff face.

“No, I can't stand being beaten. ”

Loki asked with a suspicious tone.

“Then what was the answer? ”

“It's probably best to tell them to make their way comfortably. ”

“Of course it is. I can do that. Then · · · · · · ·"

“Of course we will march on Asgard - ”

Loki smiles brightly and extends his hand.

“Welcome, allies. ”

With no more joyful waves, Loki knew that Ragnarok would soon begin.

The lights went out and the war broke out.
