Road to Valhalla Chapter 140: A Savior for the Treasure
A home for the Valkyries. Lubbock had said those words. And I knew then that Valhalla wasn't a barracks to prepare soldiers. It was a place to protect. But what I didn't know was what exactly it was that we were trying to protect, that Lady was doing her utmost to save. A treasure like that. I wondered what something like that would amount to. *************We were rudely awoken the next morning, by some noise downstairs. Without getting dressed, I poked my head out of the room I was sharing with Lubbock. Sight and Claire were in the next room over. Lubbock had already gone downstairs and there was quite a commotion now. Sight appeared out of his room, dressed and ready to move."Mornin' boy!", he acted as if he couldn't hear anything. "Sight, what's that noise downstairs?", I asked."What noise? Oh, probably some drunken men! Things you see in pubs like this, boy, you'll get used to it."Except t
Road to Valhalla Chapter 141: The Gospelion of Barathrum
"Fair headed like a sage, towering like a giant, and with the countenance of an archmage", said the tiny boss, whose name was Mavros, "Those are the signs of the prophet passed on by our ancestors."I looked between Claire and Sight who, on that account, looked the same. Although Claire wasn't as tall and Sight didn't exactly have the right face. "I, as the sole heir of the tribe was destined to marry the prophet as was instructed by our dear forefathers. Only a child born of both bloods could activate The Gospelion and save the world."If I didn't know better, I would have believed her story."However, ", she said authoritatively, "I seem to have given my heart to the wrong man. Oh, but it can't be helped."She snuggled close to Sight while calling him the wrong man. Sight chuckled, cluelessly."I see. But how is The Gospelion to be activated now?", unlike me, Claire seemed to be buying her story."Nothing to fret about! If both of us spill our blood onto the great Gospelion, our vo
Road to Valhalla Chapter 142: When the Dream is Over
It felt like years since I'd seen the face of that place. I hadn't realized when, despite all the complicated feeling I had yet to unravel, that place had begun to look like home. As pleasing as that warm feeling was, I pinched myself so as not to forget, so as not to get used to such a life. But I had already forgotten most of what I used to be.Valhalla stood right before our eyes, as peaceful as always. The same scent of wet Earth, the distant voice of the waterfall and the wind sweeping through the forest all around our hidden haven. The crooked path as clear as ever, seemed so welcoming. It had been a while since I'd walked on it.And the first thing that came to view was the mound on which Prophet lay sleeping all alone. My eyes always went to him before anything else, even though he was no longer under that stone. I knew in my heart that Prophet had already moved on. Yet, there she stood, as always, keeping him company.The door to the church was wide open, meaning morning had
Road to Valhalla Chapter 143: The Unknown God of Death
It was warm where I opened my eyes. A vast blue sky rested before my eyes. I couldn't open my eyes very well though. They kept closing again and again. I was so damn sleepy. Everything was a blur. My breathing sounded so...overwhelming. It was all I could hear. Like a hurricane. Or like I was under water. It was distant and yet...very close.But then suddenly a grey wave appeared before my eyes and it seemed that I was beginning to lose vision. My breathing got heavier. Like I was falling down into something really deep. I could barely keep my eyes open, even though I was trying so hard. My lips were parted, dried like sand. But still, I managed to lift my head. A stone wall right at the edge of a deep trench. And her. Standing on the edge of the stone wall. Her hair flowed about. So I wasn't really sure anymore if we weren't underwater."Kiria."That was my voice that got muddled in a bubble. But she was looking at the distance. Into the trench.It got impossible to keep my eyes
Road to Valhalla Chapter 144: The Reaper on The Mountain
There was a good wind on the grassy mountains that day. You could tell that a storm was brewing high up in the sky. Dark clouds went swirling like a tower up into the grey sky. The ones below it hadn't paid heed to the sky above. But that was an hour ago. They'd all come to rest now. Their vacant eyes strayed up and stuck there for all eternity. The mountain was littered with their kind. But for the two travelers that treaded up the mountain, those sights weren't new. Making their way up the mountain, one lagging behind the other, they neither watched the sky nor those staring up at it."Lady!", called the one lagging behind.She turned, stopping to catch her breath. They'd come a long way.He pointed to something in the distance. Lady looked where he was pointing. A murder of crows. She had to peel her eyes to discern what they were gathering at. She looked back at him and nodded, "We're here.""Oi, before we go on", he stopped her again, "They are proud beyond your patience. And
Road to Valhalla Chapter 145: A Seraph that Died
"Well, we'll leave the rest to you", Sight said, patting my shoulder, as my soul left for the seven skies. Indeed, I could not have imagined this strange turn of events. Then again, its about time I got used to being surprised like this. Of all the people, Lady chose me to do her part of the 'talking'. "You are the only one of us that has gone up against a god. If anyone has a chance, it's you", said she, without a bit of consideration for my feelings on the matter. Of course, she was lying through her teeth, but I didn't know that yet. To top it off, the 'talking' was anything but talking. It turned out to be a lot more violent than it ought to have been. I simply couldn't understand, how I, an innocent, unknowing man, ended up getting roped into something like this. No one had a satisfactory answer to that problem. But without further discussion, I was readied for battle. The Valkyries thought it'd be nice if they loaded me with advice so I could have a chance against Grim. I don
Road to Valhalla Chapter 146: Revival, Again
I did indeed die.As for how I'm still able to tell you about it, that's a story for another time.So as I lay there, dead, the Valkyries walked up to check on me."Sight, didn't you put the evasive barrier on him?", Lady asked, while examining my lifeless remains."Ah...I forgot", Sight scratched his head as if no loss has been incurred.Surprisingly enough, Grim had quite the same shocked reaction as the rest of them."I didn't know it will work", he said, thinking Sight had already put this barrier on me. After all, those guys sure did take their time pepping me up.Now they all just hovered over me, cluelessly.As for me, I was in a nicer place."Lucy looks like she doesn't care but she asks about you often. Well, you know her", he stood tall, with a careless smirk on his gentle face.I looked over at Lucy who glared at him and then looked away when I looked her way. I did avert my gaze soon enough, seeing as she was stripped to the bone, as usual."She's surprisingly shy", I chuc
Road to Valhalla Chapter 147: A Final Gentle Wind Blows
By the time I came back to life, which wasn't more than about an hour, the gang had set up a camp on the mountain. Presently, they were lounging about a table and having some hot drinks. There had been negotiations while I was busy in the land of over yonder. Grim and Lady had com to terms about something."Nothing is solved yet, I suppose", I asked Sight."None yet, boy", he sipped on his hot drink, "But soon."No on offered me a seat or a drink. Today they were harsher than any other day, not that I'd ever mind. The wind was getting rather strong up here, and I wondered why they were suddenly having a tea party in such a windy location. The kettle rolled off the table by a strong gust of wind and spilled their precious drink but it was readily picked up and a new batch was brewed."Lady's finally decided to go at him herself", Sight said after a long silence and a longer sip of his drink."Finally?""Hmm, boy, you know how we all are. We've all fought against Lady at some point, but
