Chapter 403: Aurora
Norway, Navia Peninsula.
This was the largest peninsula in Europe. The entire island was surrounded by the sea on all sides. It was a place that was far away from the hustle and bustle. Especially during winter nights every year, one could even see the aurora in the sky.
However, it was currently summer. The aurora that should not have appeared suddenly appeared in the sky of Norway Night!
The beauty of the aurora was something that no phenomenon in the natural world could compare to.
They were like fireworks blooming in festivals. Sometimes they were like a colorful ribbon, sometimes they were like a burning flame, sometimes they were like a huge silver screen, full of the most beautiful colors in the world, lightly floating in the night sky.
If one counted carefully, they could find dozens of different forms of aurora.
They were as light as ribbons, floating in the stars and Milky Way in the night sky. Under the illumination of the two, they presented a kind of beautiful scenery that could not be described in any language!
Even the usually calm Ulquiorra was inevitably attracted by this beautiful scenery. There were faint ripples in his eyes that were like a pool of stagnant water, staring deeply at the gorgeous light above the Milky Way.
T?shir? Hitsugaya and Soi Fon have never seen Aurora, and are deeply attracted by this beautiful scene.
"Legend has it that Polar Light is the light of the armor shining when the valkyrie rode on the Pegasus in the night sky." Lod thought of this ancient legend and turned to look at several valkyrie, laughing: "So the appearance of this Polar Light should be your credit?"
"Something's not right, Lord Spirit King!"
Yallweite's face was slightly solemn. She lowered her head and said, "According to common sense, the appearance of the aurora is indeed related to the Valkyrie, but this aurora was not created by us, but... a kind of call."
Lod raised his eyebrows. "Who is calling?"
Yallweite frowned and looked at the dozens of aurora lights in the sky. She said in a deep voice, "Aurora is the flag of the Valkyrie when she went to war. The color of the armor when the Pegasus crossed the sky is only one possibility."
"Here... there was once a Valkyrie who went to war." Brunhilde added, "Moreover, it is the Aurora summoned by the remnant will of Valkyrie after she sensed the appearance of her companions."
"That's right, this is a signal." Yallweite looked at the Aurora and said meaningfully, "Or is it a... warning."
Soi Fon immediately recovered from the beautiful scenery of Aurora and said thoughtfully, "If that is the case, you can imagine in what kind of situation will Valkyrie use Aurora as a signal or warning?"
"I remember... there is only one situation..."
Yallweite and Brunhilde looked at each other and said in unison, "When they encounter an irresistible great crisis, that might even threaten Asgarda. When the Valkyries are completely annihilated, they will use the aurora to warn Asgarda."
"In other words... they encountered a very powerful enemy. Before they were defeated, they left behind the aurora to warn the later war Valkyries?" Soi Fon frowned and analyzed.
There was a hint of confusion on Yallweite's face, and she said in confusion, "But how can I not remember, there is still a Valkyrie that has come to Midgard?"
Brunhilde was also very puzzled. "Yes, we are the original Valkyrie."
"Perhaps you have forgotten?" Lil 'Shiro crossed his arms in front of his chest and tilted his head. "Or perhaps, after your death, Asgarda built another Valkyrie Legion?"
"There is no second Valkyrie Legion."
At this moment, Lod interrupted and shook his head. "Ever since Yallweite and the others were buried in the Underworld, Asgarda has never formed a Valkyrie Legion. Now, the one who inherited the title of Valkyrie is the first Valkyrie that Odin had created."
"Tsk tsk... That's strange." Lil' Shiro's childish face was puzzled. He asked doubtfully, "Since there is no second Valkyries and Brunhilde does not know about this, where did the Valkyries come from?"
Just as everyone was confused, another valkyrie, Skuld, walked out after a moment of hesitation. She carefully raised her hand, bit her lips, and whispered, "Well... I seem to know where they came from."
Seeing the puzzled gazes of everyone, Yallweite introduced, "She is called Skuld. Although her combat ability is not outstanding among the Valkyries, she has another name, one of the three goddesses of fate."
The three goddesses of fate??
Hearing this, Lod and others all looked surprised.
A goddess of fate ran to become a valkyrie, and was reduced to becoming a puppet of Helr in Helheim. Looking at all the gods in all myths who were connected to fate, was there anyone who was as miserable as her?
Yallweite saw through everyone's thoughts and said bitterly, "Skuld was once the three goddess of fate, but she symbolized the future, and there was more than one future. Therefore, she was demoted to the Valkyrie Legion by Odin when the prophecy failed again and again."
Everyone suddenly realized that this was the reason.
The past and the present were constant, but the future was not set. Skuld could only predict one of the future. It was not so important to Asgard, so she was reduced to being the Valkyrie.
Skuld was obviously very introverted. Her face turned red from being stared at by everyone. She subconsciously hid behind Yallweite and whispered, "I once heard from Sister Urd that before we existed, there was a female Valkyirie. However, for some reason, their existence and history were forcibly erased by Odin."
Yallweite and the others were stunned. They were not the original Valkyirie.
There was another Valkyirie that was born before them. However, due to some unknown reasons, Odin personally erased their existence and history. They were abandoned in Midgard. They were only discovered after thousands of years or even tens of thousands of years.
"Interesting..."
Hearing this, a glimmer of light appeared in Lod's eyes. He said with great interest, "The Valkyirie whose existence has been erased from history. I want to know what exactly can make Odin hide their existence at all costs."
He found that what he gained the most on this trip was actually the black history of that old man, Odin!
In the future, if the first Prince of Asgarda knew the black history of his old father, would he feel the gap between ideals and reality and completely collapse his mind?
