Chapter 083

“Please come to Jamsil by tomorrow. “I’ll be waiting.”

There was no word on the other end of the phone.

“By the way, if you don’t come, I will go straight to the East Sea and force you to take me, so just know that.”

-You’re doing too much.

“Now you have to face your past. How long are you going to run away?”

Gunther was needed to wake Brünnhilde.

They say it takes a prince’s kiss to wake up a sleeping princess.

The difference is that Brünnhilde is a Valkyrie, not a princess, and Gunther is also a king with a bushy beard, not a prince.

‘There’s no difference in liking each other.’

So I needed Gunther.

It may be a bit coercive, but if the relationship between the two people can be improved again through this, there is nothing that cannot be done.

“If you are a Viking warrior, please come out. “Isn’t it said that a warrior knows no retreat?”

-But this is a different case… … .

I hung up the phone so I wouldn’t have to listen to the coward’s excuses.

-Sometimes, my benefactor can be so cold-hearted as to be scary.

It’s not something you should say with that voice.

“So are we really going to see Brünnhilde? Valkyrie! This is my first time seeing that Valkyrie in person! An angel of battle flying with silver armor and wings spread! Taking the warriors to Valhalla… … .”

I now returned home listening to Suyeon Lee’s talk, which included Brünnhilde, Valhalla, and Ragnarok.

She seemed to be sad about parting ways and tried to follow, but was forced to turn away.

Jormungand was sent together.

– Did it have to be like this to feel relieved?

Jormungand, I’m sorry.

Fenrir, who was looking at Jormungand moving away, asked me.

-But why is the benefactor trying to take that person? If you’re just going to Niflheim, all you have to do is meet Valkyrie, right?

The guy who was walking next to me, wiggling his little legs, let out a low-pitched voice that didn’t suit me.

“that’s right. “If we’re just going to Niflheim, there’s no need.”

-Then why?

I looked at him for a moment.

Fenrir, a small puppy, pricked his small ears and slightly stuck out his thick tongue, panting curiously.

The guy’s eyes were shining.

“Do you want to hear why?”

-I’m curious. Why are you taking a Viking who doesn’t seem to be of much help in battle right now?

“You haven’t even seen Gunther.”

-There is a limit to the power that most humans can produce. Except for anomalous beings like benefactors.

Hmm.

I thought about it for a while.

May I speak to Fenrir?

It was not that there was no desire for Gunther and Brünnhilde to reconcile again.

Brünnhilde, who was sealed and tied up by Odin, also missed Gunther, unlike in the myth.

Gunther also missed her and had feelings for Brünnhilde to the point where he went into hiding alone.

Gunther feels guilty about what he did in the past.

Brunnhilde and Odin were avoiding each other out of fear that they might also suffer harm.

‘I don’t want them to reunite again.’

I called him because I just wanted to apologize to each other and end things properly.

Because I know better than anyone else how much regret you will have if you do not end a relationship properly.

But that wasn’t the real reason for taking Gunther.

The real reason for taking him.

“Gunther is a human who has already experienced death once.”

-… … .

That he is a human being who experienced death once in mythology.

This fact will help me a lot when I go to Niflheim.

The guy who heard those words closed his mouth.

“This is all I can talk about.”

-What on earth are you trying to do?

“I can’t say anything up to that point.”

-Benefactor… He was a scary person.

I was silent.

“let’s hurry. “There is a lot to prepare.”

If I was going to Niflheim with Gunther, I needed a few things to take with me.

* * *

Gunter.

The great King of Burgundy and the strongest Viking warrior.

Although they have completely severed ties now, he was a close friend of the hero Siegfried in the past.

He had now left his hometown, Burgundy, and settled in Korea, a distant country.

While stabilizing the coastal village by subduing the remaining Azur remnants with his Viking warriors, he suddenly received a call from Dojin.

-Let’s go see Brünnhilde together.

Brünnhilde.

A name that makes your heart flutter just by hearing it.

She doesn’t know it, but Gunther has loved her all his life.

He fell in love with her and received help from Siegfried to propose marriage.

She borrowed his power, and he passed Brünnhilde’s qualification exam on her behalf.

The joy of being together was greater than the guilt of deceiving her.

I was so happy that I did not notice the tragedy that would occur later.

Also, lies will be revealed someday.

Even after they were married, Brünnhilde did not know that he had cheated on her.

That is, until he got into an argument with his younger sister, Kriemhild.

I still can’t forget the look on Brünnhilde’s face when she heard that Siegfried, not her, had passed her test.

-A cursed person. You fooled me until the end. That you defiled me.

Brünnhilde is full of traces of dried tears.

Eyes full of resentment staring at you with red bloodshot eyes.

His pale face was as dry as that of someone who had lost hope.

Then I realized.

Gunther himself did a terrible thing to her.

Soon after, Brünnhilde spoke to him.

-Siegfried defiled me. Please kill that person. Or he will kill me for being defiled.

I thought it was a lie.

I believed it was a lie.

Nevertheless, Gunther declared that he would kill Siegfried.

It was a feeling of guilt.

Guilt made him act irrationally, and he killed Siegfried to prove his love for Brünnhilde.

Everyone knows that the result is a tragedy.

Gunther was killed by his own sister, and Brünnhilde was also killed by Kriemhild.

When they emerged from the myth and reappeared in this world, Gunther and Brünnhilde had still entered into a marriage covenant.

Gunther, who came back to life, could not understand Brunnhilde’s inner thoughts.

Even after descending into this world, she stayed by his side for a while, forming a marital relationship, and then suddenly left, taking her belt with her.

Gunther still had regrets because he loved her, but he could not stop her because he knew his past.

-You and I are done here. It was a bad marriage from the start, so I hope they don’t stop it. And I will never give this belt back.

He just spends his time hiding in a faraway country in the East, missing her.

I thought I had forgotten everything, but I sure did.

-I said if I show you this, you will understand.

Dojin appeared in front of him with the belt.

The belt of the wife I thought I would never see again.

-I came to meet Brünnhilde herself. When I told him I needed your help, he was happy to send me a token.

When I heard that she gave the belt for this man, I thought of Siegfried.

Anger and lingering regret tormented him at the same time.

When he saw Do-jin handing out his belt to him, he decided to help him because he received the only thing he could remember.

And as their story goes, they killed Siegfried.

I thought it would end like that.

“Why are you saying that name again?”

Gunther remembered Do-jin’s face as he brought his wife’s belt.

why?

Why is he trying to reveal something from the past that he thought was buried now?

It was his shameful past.

“Are you telling me to come back and face you again now?”

With what shame can we face this?

Even now I can’t raise my head.

-Please come to Jamsil by tomorrow. I’ll be waiting.

Dojin’s voice lingered softly in my ears.

Gunther bit his lip when he heard his voice saying that he would wait no matter what.

You won’t be able to just run away forever.

There were times when a warrior had to face his shameful past head on.

“Whew. okay. “I will no longer run away.”

Gunther gritted his teeth.

* * *

“… … .”

“… … .”

In the end, I was speechless when I saw Gunteo, who had come to Jamsil.

He showed up to the meeting wearing neither his usual armor nor modern-looking clothes, but traditional 11th-century medieval European attire.

“What is that?”

“It’s the traditional attire of our hometown.”

“I know that, but why… … .”

“I heard about it. Not only Brünnhilde, but other Valkyries are also there. If you think about it, isn’t it a place to meet your own family? “You have to show some manners.”

Those words reminded me of the three Valkyries who lived in apartment 304.

Landgrid, the Valkyrie of the battlefield wearing a blue training suit.

Radgrid, a battlefield valkyrie wearing a pink training suit.

Lastly, Reginleif, a battlefield valkyrie wearing a yellow training suit.

All three were dressed shabbily.

‘I contacted you yesterday in advance, but… … .’

The girls, who were dressed in shabby clothes and fiddling with the TV remote control, didn’t seem like they would be waiting in great attire.

“But what is that puppy next to me? “Is this your new pet?”

-You’re cocky.

“Huh!”

Gunther, who was clicking his tongue while looking at the Pomeranian, looked at me in surprise as soon as he heard Fenrir’s heavy voice coming at him.

“S-No way… ?”

“you’re right.”

“Even the wolf that swallowed God… . Dojin, what are you doing?”

“Well, anyway. “He is a love evangelist who tries to reconnect couples who separated due to involuntary reasons.”

“… … .”

I wish you could say something.

Embarrassing people.

“Let’s go.”

“okay. egg plant.”

Gunther and I headed to Valkyrie’s house where Brunnhilde was.

“I’m looking forward to it. A legendary couple who reunites after a tragic breakup! What will be the ending of their love? … .”

Lee Soo-yeon followed, fussing like a housewife watching a drama that comes out at 8 a.m.

“Would you like some popcorn?”

“Do you have any popcorn? “It’s so pulling!”

“It’s a joke.”

We stood in front of room 304, where Brunnhilde and her relatives lived.

“You should ring the doorbell, Gunther.”

“Oh, I know.”

Gunther stood silently for a while, staring at the doorbell, then swallowed his saliva and rang the doorbell with difficulty.

Ding-dong-.
