Episode 092

“From here on, we have to go into the fog.”

Hel pointed to the thick fog of Niflheim.

The resentful voices of the dead rang out.

“Can I really go in? I heard the legend that Hel doesn’t lie, but… . “I feel uneasy for some reason.”

Suyeon Lee came close to me and whispered.

“Many legends show Hel keeping her promises, but the underworld is merciless to the living. Orpheus was like that too. The moment you turn your head… … .”

She couldn’t hide her excitement.

Even as he said he was worried, he was looking at the fog with interested eyes.

It was a face that wanted to record what else there was in the world of the dead.

Niflheim, Hel, the frost giants, and even the battle against them.

Is it not enough for mythology fans to watch so many scenes?

“It will be okay. “As I said, she is a goddess who keeps her promises.”

“I guess so, right?”

Hel waved his hand, and all the dead retreated.

In the absence of the frost giant, no dead person dared defy her.

“I will go.”

Hel took the lead, and we followed.

As I entered the dark gray fog, an unpleasant energy oppressed my body.

I took out the Sea King’s Trident.

thud!

The protection of the ocean current was activated, and a protective shield of water spread around us.

Gunther and Lee Su-yeon’s expressions became much more relaxed.

“Let’s follow along.”

Together with Hel, we headed to the place where she hid from other gods.

Capella.

A star that Zeus, who acknowledged Amaltheia’s merits, placed her in the sky and created.

A Latin word meaning baby goat.

The first rank of the coachman.

After the Advent, it fell into Niflheim and became a meteorite.

“Here we go.”

Hel guided us to where Capella was.

A corner of Niflheim.

In a place where no one dared to approach because the fog was thick, there was a meteorite the size of a house.

This was Capella where Hel hid.

“This is Capella… ?”

“It’s so big. But to be called a star in the sky… .”

Gunther and Suyeon Lee looked at the meteorite with exclamations of exclamation.

“Capella is not a real star. She is her symbol that symbolizes her. “She saw thunder falling from the sky and regarded it as a god, and gave meaning to lava rising from underground, time passing, and death.”

Hel said after seeing Capella.

“This is Capella who protected me. “If you don’t want Capella to become a weapon as promised earlier, I can’t help you.”

I nodded, placed the Sea King’s Trident on the floor, and approached Capella.

Capella, a meteorite that subtly reveals its presence in the fog and frost.

A nymph who guarded and protected Hel just as she did Zeus in mythology.

-Are you human?

Her thoughts spoke to me.

She looked at me and laughed, as if she still had some sense of self even after becoming a meteorite.

-Can you hear my voice?

“okay. Capella.”

-It was real?

The high-pitched voice continued to tickle my ears.

-what’s the matter? I don’t think I came here to kill that kid.

“I want to use you to make weapons.”

-… Like Zeus did?

“okay.”

-Are you qualified for that?

“of course.”

-show me.

“There are conditions. “I wish only you could see it?”

A moment of silence.

-okay.

At those words, the meteorite moved slowly.

He opened the space as if asking people to come inside him.

It was enough space for one person to pass by.

“Suyeon.”

“yes?”

“Let’s go together. “We need Sooyeon.”

“Me?”

“yes.”

“all right.”

Suyeon Lee followed behind me.

“I’ll be back shortly, so everyone please wait here.”

“Please be careful.”

-I get it.

After being seen off by my colleagues, I entered Capella with Lee Soo-yeon.

Upon entering the meteorite, I was able to understand why the Aegis was a relic that prevented any attack.

‘Mana blocking, distortion… … .’

I cast a simple mana arrow with the Eye of Horus and threw it towards the inside of the meteorite.

ping!

The magic with a distorted trajectory bounced off and came back to me.

pop!

I unfolded the shield and blocked it.

The arrows that exploded in the air scattered in all directions and disappeared.

If I hadn’t blocked it, it would have hit my leg straight away.

‘Even reflection damage.’

By making a shield with these minerals, it became an impenetrable monster-like shield.

-You wanted to check that?

“I need to make sure you’re real.”

-Hehehe, you’re an interesting person.

Capella’s thoughts burst out in laughter.

After completing the verification, I took out the Hammer of Hephaestus and the Dragon Slayer.

“Both of these are weapons made with the help of Master.”

-I can feel the power of Hephaestus. I’m not mistaken, right?

“that’s right. “It was made from his body.”

-… That’s why I asked to talk separately.

“okay.”

-Can you talk to me? Even though she was like this, she was once Zeus’ nanny.

Sure!

The meteorite wriggles.

“If you kill me, you will have to live alone in this frozen land. Is that okay?”

-what?

“Hephaestus, who would use you to create the Aegis, is dead. “It means that if I die too, the person who can help you escape from this land will disappear.”

-… … .

“Even though I killed Hephaestus, I will turn you into Aegis as per the myth.”

If you attach the head of Medusa, who casts the curse of petrification, to the shield, you will have an absolute shield that no one can easily touch.

-Do you know how to believe that?

“What if I don’t believe it?”

-what?

“Anyway, you only have two options. Either take my offer and become the best weapon, or just stay here.”

-… … .

“I heard that you protected Hel with your body. “I guess the reason you did that was because you wanted to tell your story, right?”

story.

It was something both gods and heroes needed.

The same was true for the mythical being and nymph Capella, or even Amaltheia.

“I’ll make you your story. “Isn’t it a gamble worth taking?”

-Okay.

I walked up to the wall and swept Capella.

I felt the rough surface of minerals.

Just by touch, I felt that it would be difficult to handle.

“You can become Athena’s shield and help her become the main goddess. “It’s not difficult, right?”

If that happens, Aegis’ name will remain forever, just like it did in mythology.

She was silent for a moment.

-You know that it’s a gamble with my life, right?

“okay. “I know how dangerous it is.”

It was 20 minutes later that Capella’s thoughts spoke again.

-good. okay. So what should I do?

“Just like you did to Zeus, give us the minerals that make up your body.”

Like Amaltheia, who gave up her skin.

-now?

“okay.”

-But then no one will know. How I sacrificed and why I gave myself away.

Instead of answering, I looked at Suyeon Lee.

Now it was her turn to prove it.

“Well, I can record it!”

-you?

“yes. “I can do it.”

After finishing speaking, Suyeon Lee spread her hands.

[3. Godslayer Kim Do-jin – Liberation of Fenrir – Hero level]

[Recorder: Witness to the myth, Suyeon Lee]

Reenactment of the story.

Clearly, she said, it was possible to recreate even hero-level stories.

Decay and his apostates were encroaching on Elfheim.

The dying Fenrir and myself saving that guy.

The image of me killing the dark elf and the elf elder who had turned hideous and eliminating all causes of infection was relayed to Capella through her records.

“It’s a story about rescuing Fenrir and killing the otherworldly believers who polluted him. Mr. Dojin created it and I recorded it.”

By the end of the story, she was holding a librarian in her hands that recorded the liberation of Fenrir.

There was no way Capella, a mythical being, did not know the story that had just unfolded and the power contained in the book.

-It was real.

The meteorite shook.

Sure.

-I knew there was no other way but you. Let’s do as you say. Can you really complete my story?

“okay.”

-good. Then I’ll do as you say. I entrust my body to you. The result has to be great. So that the child who will become my owner will like it.

“Don’t worry about that.”

As the surroundings began to glow, Capella’s shape gradually began to change.

The large meteorite that surrounded us gradually decreased in size and became a hard mineral.

Capella, a mineral that distorts, blocks, and reflects mana.

It was floating in the air and flew towards me and landed lightly in my hand.

“I need to clearly record the entire process.”

Suyeon Lee spoke to her as if she had promised her.

I raised my head and looked at Hel, who was watching all this.

“I have permission from Capella himself, so I will take it.”

“all right.”

* * *

Like the Greek underworld, Niflheim, the world of the dead was dark and cold.

And Hades, the ruler of the place, opened his eyes to the presence of a delicate girl that he had not felt in a long time.

“It looks like it’s finally come out.”

Hell of Niflheim.

A goddess who had a very weak spirit for a ruler of the underworld.

No, she could not be called a goddess.

Unlike his world, ruled by a suitable god, Hel, the queen of Niflheim, who rules the underworld of Northern Europe, was a monster, that is, a spirit creature.

You fought against the gods and caused the apocalypse, right?

‘Foolish little man.’

No matter how strong the beings of the underworld were, it was difficult to confront the gods in earnest.

Even if we fought, there was nothing to be gained.

If there is life, there must be death.

If there is no life, no matter how powerful death becomes, it will soon disappear.

The Norse gods are also foolish.

If God had directly subdued and ruled the place, there would have been no need to face such a disaster.

He, the god of the underworld, attempted to take over Niflheim to ensure the smooth reign of death.

The plan to kill Hel and make the Nordic underworld his own was repeatedly postponed because she went into hiding.

Even Hades himself couldn’t stay in another underworld where there was a ruler for a long time.

That’s why I felt it while I was putting off the conquest.

“I don’t know why that cowardly girl left the house… .”

I will finally be able to go on an expedition to Niflheim.

Hades twisted his lips.
