Chapter 089

A huge frost giant over 3 meters tall glared at me with its big eyes, raising its tusks protruding from its lower lip menacingly.

“I am Gurd, the chief of the Frost Hill Tribe and a senior warrior of Niflheim. “What is the name of you fighting me?”

Gourde.

It was a name I had heard before.

One of the three frost giants who ruled Niflheim after the frost giants took control of it.

After working with the gods of human history to stop the Abyss that descended on Niflheim, a being emerged as a new enemy that threatens humanity using its power.

I heard that he uses an ax bigger than a person’s body and that his monstrous strength to defeat crowds of enemies exceeds that of most mid-level gods.

Humanity was troubled by this giant for a long time until Lee Hyeon, who received the blessing of the Creator God, killed him.

‘It was better.’

The Frost Giant was an opponent that had to be defeated anyway for the stability of the nine worlds of Norse mythology.

Unlike other spirits who joined hands with God to fight the Abyss, they were frost giants who wanted to establish their own independent ruling force.

The Frost Giants, who formed a force centered around Jotunheim, steadily fought against the gods for a long time after occupying Niflheim in their previous life.

-For frost giants, war is a blessing!

… This was because of their racial belief.

Instead of getting rid of Hel by making giants who might betray him at any moment become allies, it was best to use these guys to give Hel trust.

Operation name: The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

The goal was to gain her trust and talk to her by killing the frost giants invading her territory on behalf of Hel, who had gone into seclusion and whose whereabouts are unknown.

If she regains her power and begins to actively rule Niflheim, the Abyss that will open in Niflheim will be quickly subdued.

‘The reason the Abyss was created in the first place was because of the absence of a reigning queen.’

In such a situation, the appearance of Gourde was quite a blessing.

Because an enemy that had to be dealt with had appeared before my eyes anyway.

“Kim Do-jin, I have nothing to be particularly proud of.”

There was no need to inflate oneself by making grandiose remarks against Gourde.

Because I wasn’t an opponent for such grandiose bravado and prestige.

Gourde heard my name and took a step forward.

“No one should intervene.”

He warned the frost giants standing behind him.

To the frost giants, Ilgito is like a sacred ritual.

“A hunter does his best to catch a rabbit.”

After giving a warning, Gourde pulled out his ax and attacked me.

“Hwaaaap!”

A huge ax with deadly force came flying at me with the force of splitting my head.

He lifted the hammer of Hephaestus and blocked the man’s axe.

Quaaaang!

Gourde’s powerful force pushed his body back slightly.

My hands were shaking.

I thought it would be strong, but I never thought it would be like this.

‘There is a reason why he stopped the Abyss and took command of all of Niflheim.’

His natural strength was enormous.

“Hoo?”

Gourde’s eyebrows twitched.

“A human subject took the brunt of my attack?”

“Is this power? “It’s so light it looks like a feather.”

In part, I uttered a word as if to provoke him.

At those words, a tendon rose in his head.

“bouncer.”

Gourde swung the ax with all his might.

The target this time is my side.

Wedge!

The sound of its ax cutting through the air tore my ears.

‘I can’t accept it.’

I took a long step back and avoided Gourd’s attack.

“Didn’t I say it was as light as a feather?”

Looking at me like that, Gourde twitched his lips and asked.

When I dodged the attack instead of fighting it, my head throbbed and hurt due to the Berserker effect, which is an abnormality obtained through Hrunting.

‘I can bear this much.’

I gritted my teeth and endured the surging pain.

“Light and slow.”

I stretched out my hand.

Two white fang-shaped weapons flew towards Gourde.

Pakak!

Phew!

“Wow!”

White fangs sank into its shoulder and chest.

The memorization aimed at the heart only tore the muscles and did not reach the vital area.

“This bastard made a cowardly move… .”

“Isn’t it cowardly for a 3-meter-tall giant to go head-to-head with a human?”

What I just threw was Wallang’s Fang, a skill I obtained while making Fenrir my familiar.

[Skill: Wolrang’s Fang]

[Description: The wolf’s fang that swallowed Odin and tore off Tyr’s arm will become your eternal weapon from now on.]

[Effect 1: A fang containing the power of Fenrir can be summoned as a projectile that can be fired.]

[Effect 2: Fangs have an armor-destroying effect.]

[Effect 3: The more gods you kill, the more effects you get.]

The fangs of the wolf that swallowed the moon and chewed up the god easily tore through the giant’s skin and muscles.

‘Tsk.’

I tried to kill him with this one blow, but the giant’s muscles were tougher than I thought.

When I canceled the summoning, the fangs embedded in my shoulder and chest disappeared.

However, the wound did not disappear.

“You’re bothering me. “Only human subjects.”

Gourde looked down at his wounds, gritted his teeth, and swung the axe.

Whoa!

I blocked attacks that I could parry, avoided attacks that I could not, and looked for an opportunity to attack.

Every time I dodged its attack, the berserker’s penalty effect made my head ache.

‘I can’t see any gaps.’

After all, he is a skilled warrior. Does this mean that an attack he has seen once will not work?

Gourde continued to attack without allowing any gaps.

“You can’t even think of throwing away that cowardly memorization. “What are you going to do now?”

He quickly cast magic with the Eye of Horus and focused the magic towards the wound pierced by the fang.

[Level 3 Explosion Magic: Fire Bomb]

Quaaaang!

[Level 4 Ice Magic: Ice Pick]

Faba Park!

Since the magic that could be cast in a short period of time was limited, most of them disappeared under the weight of Gourde’s strong magic resistance, but occasionally it was successful in delivering a significant hit.

Quang! Pow!

Gourde’s wounds, which had been hit directly by the level 5 magic fireball, were blazing.

The effect was clear, but how much mana was used for that one shot?

I took a deep breath, feeling an unpleasant sense of helplessness due to the loss of mana.

“Really, you’re bothering me!”

Gourde gritted his teeth and glared at me.

His eyes were filled with the kind of anger that comes from a human being who finds a pesky mosquito waking him up in the middle of the night.

‘This is enough.’

He made me fully aware of my attack pattern.

Then, next time you will move as your body tells you.

I ran into his arms.

The guy, who was very nervous, moved as concisely as possible and aimed for my neck.

This time too, the Eye of Horus was activated to cast magic.

As his left eye sparkled, Gourde opened his eyes to catch the incoming magic.

Fireworks exploded before his eyes.

[Level 1 Fire Magic: Fireworks]

“Aaaah!”

However, it has no lethal power at all and is just a firecracker magic used only at festivals.

The intense light blinded him for a moment.

At that moment, Gunther and Reginleif, who had been hiding, appeared and plunged an ax and a Valkyrie sword into Gourd’s wound.

“Kaaaaak!”

One-on-one combat is a sacred frost giant ritual?

As a human, I have no idea?

“You coward!”

While Gourde was twisting his body and struggling to separate the two, I rushed at him.

Gourde, who had regained his sight, tried to stop me from rushing towards him, but it was too late.

Hephaestus clumsily struck the hilt of Leginleif’s sword that had been stuck in his chest with the hammer.

Wow!

The sound of the helmets clashing rang out cheerfully, and the sword tore through the muscles and pierced the heart.

“Kuheook! Ugh… … .”

Gourde, whose heart had been stabbed, stumbled and fell to his knees.

“This, dog, son of a bitch…” … .”

No matter how strong a frost giant Gourd is, he cannot survive with his heart pierced.

The guy’s eyes that were glaring at me soon lost strength, and he fell forward.

Gourd’s men, who were watching this, glared at me.

“So, what’s next?”

I lifted my finger as if to provoke them.

“Cheating in a sacred ceremony!”

“Kill him!”

“Gooooh!”

The angry shouts of the frost giants rang out.

Reginleif and Gunther, who each pulled their weapons from Gourd’s corpse, came close to me.

“Is it okay? “It seems like it just made me more angry.”

“it’s okay. “It’s even better that they’re causing such a stir.”

“What does it mean?”

“You’re shouting so loud that even Hell can hear. “They said their captain was dead.”

“… … .”

Reginleif asked those words.

“Is this what you were aiming for?”

“I didn’t aim for this far, but… . “The results aren’t bad.”

I looked to where Jormungand was hiding.

As I bobbed my head at Jormungand, who made eye contact, he began to grow in size.

A giant dragon seen in the East Sea.

The giants gathered around the giant dragon looked at him in astonishment.

“Yo, Jormungand?”

“Why is the giant dragon that enveloped Midgard here?”

“W-what is it?”

The reason I hid Jormungand and fought directly was to catch the enemy off guard.

So that all attention is focused on me and Gourde’s diary.

Only then will we be able to eliminate all those who have gathered without their guard at once.

Jormungand, who had grown in size, looked down at the frost giants.

It was so huge that the frost giant felt like a child.

-Be crushed.

Jormungand swung his tail.

Kwaaaaaaa!!!

The frozen ground collapsed, killing frost giants in droves.

No matter how big the giant was, he was just a dwarf in front of Jormungand.

“Kill him! No matter how strong you are, you are still a snake in the end!”

“This is Niflheim! “It’s far less than its original size!”

“Let’s kill him and avenge the captain!”

The giants, filled with rage, raised their weapons and rushed at us.

He did not back down even in the presence of Jormungand.

‘They say Northern Europeans don’t know how to retreat.’

Whether human or giant.

I grabbed the hammer again.

There were too many of them to process them one by one.

The hammer of Hephaestus boiled.

[Earth Explosion]

I struck down the skill that covered the dead with lava to use it again.

Grumble!

The ground split apart.

Fuwaaaaak!

Lava spurted out.

The lava that covered the dead hit the incoming giants.

Jormungand struck with his tail the places the lava could not reach.

* * *

Hel, the third daughter of Loki, the third plague of Ragnarok, the ruler of Niflheim, and the queen of the dead.

Half of her body was that of a girl, and the other half was that of a hideous monster, and she was shivering and hiding alone in a corner of Niflheim again today.

“scared. scared… .”

She looked too weak to be the queen of the dead.

Trembling with fear, she was in pain again today as she listened to the voices of the dead of Niflheim.

-I want to live.

-Kill me.

-Aaaah, Hel.

The Advent in which her world, Niflheim, has completely changed.

A frost giant appeared in a land originally filled with only the dead, and new souls appeared in addition to the souls she could previously control with her power.

She alone defeated the frost giants who entered this land.

Since then, she has had unexplained dreams every night.

-Hel, come to me. Let’s become one with me and create a perfect afterlife.

-It would be difficult to do it alone. Protecting the dead against those countless monsters.

-We must not just look after the dead, but govern them. Can you do it alone?

An unknown voice called her and whispered in her ear.

Hades.

It was the voice of a god who ruled the hell of another myth.

At first, it was a ploy to join him.

But as time went by, appeasement became a threat, and now.

-If you say that you will rule the underworld alone, then I have no choice. I will torture you until you kneel to me.

Hades started threatening her.

And it wasn’t just a verbal threat.

The frost giants gradually desecrated her territory using powers they had never seen before, and each time they did so, Hel’s power grew weaker.

The dead began to run wild.

The number of people who believe the rumors that people can be resurrected by eating living humans or that they can resurrect themselves if they believe in frost giants is increasing day by day.

Only then did she realize.

The reason the frost giants were able to occupy this place was because of the god Hades, who whispered in her ear every night.

In the end, she could not trust everyone and lived in fear.

And at that time, living people who were not supposed to come here visited Niflheim.

When humans with powers that were different from those of the dead appeared, Hel sent thoughts to threaten them.

It meant leaving this place and returning to where the living lived.

Because the dead of Niflheim are no longer friendly.

But no one left this place and refused her last offer.

When her thoughts disappeared and the dead came upon them, she thought they were all dead.

If she revealed her power for too long, she would be giving away her location to the frost giants, so she hid it and crouched down again.

‘Everyone must have died.’

It must have been eaten by the dead, unable to stay in Niflheim, and ended up wandering the Nine Heavens.

And not long after.

Coooooo!

A huge vibration rang out.

It was a power she was all too familiar with.

“Is this Jormungand Brother?”

Why on earth does my brother’s power reach this level… … ?

She looked to where she felt a vibration that made her toes tremble.

Kwaaaaang!

A huge sound echoed.
