I Obtained a Mythic Item - Chapter 299
Episode 299 Plateau of the Red Moon (3)
Asgard.
Standing tall on the highest point in the world, here.
There was a dark side from the past.
slum. Because those
who were abandoned in their own world
and lost their families in the war gathered here.
The reason they live in Asgard, which has taken away their place of life, is simple.
It was because he was deceived by Odin’s flattery.
[Even though you lost the war, I will take care of you and prepare a space for you to live in.]
Odin declared so to the surviving beings after the first apocalypse.
He hated Odin to death, but people had no choice but to obey his words. Even if the family who has already died is stepped on in the eyes, they have to survive in the end.
Then there is the next You can get out of Hell again.
because he knew that
Immediately after Odin’s remarks, countless people emigrated from the eight worlds except for Asgard. It was good to see it as a huge procession.
Numerous races gathered together and headed to the dazzling city of Asgard every day.
But this was a trap.
[Why do you want to keep them in Asgard?]
One day, when Hugin asked, Odin laughed and replied.
[This is so that they can no longer challenge my authority. To divide it from within.]
At that time, Odin was already preparing for the next war.
He divided the world and fueled kin hatred.
Those who came here at the suggestion of Asgard, and those who want to stay and defend the ground. The survivors were forced to split into two groups, and the two naturally fell apart.
split.
For this, he decided to accept refugees.
And so that the bereaved families of those whom he sacrificed himself could live here.
And it keeps them out of their eyes. It also helped prevent rebellion.
I came across Odin and Hugin quite by chance. I could overhear the conversation between the two beings.
A voice came to me as I was squatting in a corner of a slum.
I couldn’t help but rejoice from the bottom of my heart at the truth it conveyed.
It wasn’t long before people realized that they had been tricked by Odin. But no one thought of fighting him.
They were people who had already lost everything in the war against the As gods.
The corpses of those who had the courage to risk death have already formed a mountain.
The only people left here in the slums were those who were weak and weeded out.
So did I.
Sigrun.
It was the name given to me by my mother, who was torn to pieces by Tyr’s monster army. I somehow managed to survive even in the hellish slums.
However, that luck was in danger of ending at some point.
It was when I just turned 20.
“You are… beautiful. It would be a waste to rot in a place like this.”
These were the words of Tyr who came to me one day.
I was speechless at that moment and looked at him in a fit of rage.
Tyr. the one who killed my mother
Yeah he won’t remember anything.
The war piled up corpses like a mountain and he killed countless people.
It was one of them.
That was just my mother and I was just a war orphan.
But that didn’t make my anger go away.
‘If I can kill that bastard, I will die here.’
With that thought in mind, I was about to pull out my sword.
“Stop.”
That day, I saw Freya-sama for the first time.
beautiful face.
But there was a more beautiful heart in it.
“Tir… Odin is looking for you. You’ll be in trouble if you don’t go. Do you have time for this here?”
Tyr wrinkled his brow, but got up from his seat.
And in the empty slum street, Freya-sama asked.
“Tyr. Did you lose your family to him?”
“yes.”
I replied as if possessed, and Freyja nodded.
“Do you want revenge?”
“…yes.”
“Asgard is huge. To the point where you can’t do anything alone.”
“…Even if that’s the case, I want revenge.”
“Then become a Valkyrie. I don’t need a strong man
be loyal to me If you stay by my side, I will show you the destruction of Asgard.”
For some reason, Freya-sama’s words had a strong scent of tragedy.
I knew. That she also went through something similar to me and came here.
And that even in a tragedy that couldn’t compare to mine, I didn’t lose the vitality of my eyes.
“I will follow.”
So I decided to become a Valkyrie.
also decided I won’t lose any more family.
In order to do that, I would sometimes become a monster.

“There… stop!”
The memorial sword draws a trajectory and shoots toward Jae-hyeon.
Its power was even stronger than before.
However, it was never to the extent that Jaehyun couldn’t deal with it.
bang!
Jaehyun easily blocked her attack just by moving his hand horizontally.
A Valkyrie with regrown black wings. He could feel her rushing towards him in the smoke. Jaehyun did not avoid it.
Chow!
I control the chains and completely rip off her wings once again.
Then he looked down at her again with his eyes wide open.
“How does it feel to not be able to keep yours? Are you sick?”
“You must have felt this way too.”
Surprisingly, Sigrun was the first to affirm his words.
Jaehyun was still cold, but he was a little surprised by her words.
Until a little while ago, she was only obsessed with getting rid of herself.
But what about her now?
He sympathizes with the pain he is experiencing and is standing up for what he has to protect.
Jae-hyun thought about what the hell the evil he remembers came from.
What will be the end of this story infinitely close to tragedy?
In an unknown situation, the chain and Sigrun’s sword collide.
There, the sparks of magical power flew.
A caang sound poured out. Without rest, Sigrun was facing his sword.
Freyya… Freyya….
The one who took her.
The moment Sigrun reached the end, he thought that he would not be able to keep his promise to her.
The chains of rebirth were digging into him much faster than his own sword.
Jaehyun was driving the enemy into a corner using a sword and a series of magic.
The S-class unique skills that have been built up along with the godhead so far. In addition, the power of Nidhogg’s fangs is exerted to the limit.
Sigrun had already been cut by Jaehyun’s dagger and was in a state of deadly poison.
Then, he could clearly feel the chains penetrating his body somewhere.
Fu-wook!
“I have done the worst thing to you. Even though I went through that pain.”
Sigrun vomited blood and looked at his abdomen.
She looked up at Jaehyun with a shaky vision in the midst of a dizzying sensation as if something was stabbing her.
“With the story of an order, I took away something precious from you.”
“okay.”
“now I get it. When hatred is dotted with another hatred… that existence is ruined.”
“If I had known a little earlier, I wouldn’t have killed you either. But it’s meaningless now.”
rehearsal words. Why was it?
Sigrun felt infinitely warm.
After a long time, she stopped breathing completely.
Finally, Sigrun faced death standing upright with his sword stuck in the ground.
The last thing she murmured. It remained clearly in Jaehyun’s mind.
“Freya-sama… I’m sorry I couldn’t be with you…”
What is it?
Sigrun. What was it that made her move and hold the sword?
Did someone who can say the same thing now steal something precious from me?
War. There death comes equally to everyone.
dirty and hot
I already knew.
However, that was not the only misery of the war that he actually began to experience.
People you could build a much better relationship with if you saw them elsewhere. I must see him die by the hand of my sword.
that was the war
But… Jaehyun didn’t care what happened to those things anymore.
His body was completely in a state of runaway.
Sigrun has been eliminated and the field is slowly crumbling. It won’t last long.
And even if I go back, Kim Yoo-jung is not there.
his old friend. not anymore.
I couldn’t keep it this time either.
When I realized that, my whole body lost strength.
Pass’s!
The field collapses. All of the huge kendo highlands tied to the chain stuck in the back disappeared.
In that moment, Jaehyun knew exactly what he had to do.
You have to take care of the messed up body by putting magic all over your body and forcing it to run out of control. You must use Sacrifice to heal your body and circulate magic.
If you don’t do that, you die.
Even though he knew it, Jaehyun didn’t seem to be able to go any further.
If I lose more people in the future, I don’t have the confidence to endure that.
It might be better to end everything here.
Yeah, it was unfair from the start.
Others only had one life, but I was given a second chance.
It’s completely my fault that I couldn’t save it and let my person die.
The ugly one was me from the start.
Pessimism bites tail after tail and constantly sinks Jaehyun.
Jaehyun’s eyes were still the same, and the raised blood vessels were bursting and blood was constantly leaking out.
‘It’s over.’
After a while. The pure white light breaks and the sky is revealed.
The relay screen of the TV also returns, and Jaehyun’s figure is revealed there. Jaehyun smiled without realizing it in the midst of his shaky vision.
It was self-pity.
Did they fight for this, destroy each other, and then come back?
If so…
“I don’t have the confidence to do any more.”
I couldn’t move on.
It was when Jaehyun collapsed just like that.
“Jaehyun!”
“no! Wake!”
“…you have to get up!”
“First of all, this potion…!”
voices were heard
It was something familiar and warm. However, the fact that one of them was missing was telling me to stop recreating it here.
“Thank you.”
Jaehyun laughed at that.
and.
Just as he was about to give up everything, a voice interrupted.
Even though the surroundings were noisy, the voice could be heard very clearly. It belonged to someone who had been around for at least ten years and thought he had just lost it.
“Min Jaehyun… no. I was wrong. Because I won’t do that again…”
There was Kim Yoo-jung.
“Come back.”
At her words, Jaehyun quickly turned his sight back to normal.
Hallucinations?
It was good though. Jaehyun forced himself up and pulled her wrists into a hug. My hands were trembling.
A tear slowly trickled down from Jaehyun’s eyes. It was the moment when I finally found a place to return to.
