"Chloe, help me take them to our camp." Elijah and Chloe went down the crater, seeing the three people in the middle of the crater. as he approaches, Elijah could recognize one of them and murmured.
"Zaid? But they are not supposed to be in Asgard?" Looking at the side, he saw Chloe and from her expression, she has probably recognized them too.
After carrying them to the back of the carriage, Elijah waited for one of them to wake up so he can understand what was happening.
"Chloe, they seem to be injured, do you have a potion or something we could use?"Hearing Elijah, Chloe walked to her backpack and she began to look at the potions.
"Let me see... cloud walking, hysteria, resist Fire, mind repair... Here, take this flask of mind repair." Then she threw the flask to Elijah who gave it to Zaid, Ava and Evelynne.
When they wake up, Elijah aprouched with three pots of medicinal soup and they sitted on the ground and began to talk about what happened.
"I don't know much about it, the only thing we know is that two wolves together with a few giants, invaved Asgard and stoled a key which was needed to open someone's chain. At that time, we were surrounded by light and them we fall here." Ava told what happened in Asgard while drinking her soup as Chloe interrupted them.
"The two wolves you are talking about, are probably Skoll and Hati and the one they are trying to release is their Father, Fenrir." While she was saying this, Elijah could feel that this situation was much worse than what he could imagine as he could see fear in Chloe's eyes. Then she pulled Elijah to a hidden corner..
"What you aren't teeling? i know you are hidding something." Seeing the way she was acting strange he asked in a worried tone. The moment she heard his question, Chloe reaveled a troubled expression and after hesitating for some time she explains.
"The God are divided into several Clans and there is a profecy about the Ragnarok, a cataclysmic which will cause the destruction of the Aesir, Vanir and the Giants. As you already noticed, i'm not a mortal, my divine name is Eir, and i'm considered part of the Aesir Clan. At the same time i am also Chloe, who is my reincarnation after i died a few hundreds of years ago. And if what they said are true, then the profecy is about to begin... I'm sorry for not being able to stay here longer but before i leave i will leave a gift to you." With a movement of her hand a small hammer apeared of out of thin air.
"What is this?" Elijah asked with a confused expression.
"This is a hammer a had forged to you, it's not as good as a dwarf's work, but it was forged using the Flame of Life and i made it based in the Mjöllnir, and it can create small specks of the flame of life so you could use to fight. Now before i go, there is someone i want you to see."After she passed the hammer to Elijah, a silhouette hiding in a corner of the forest, after hearing this, suddenly apeared before them.
With Elijah's shocked gaze, the silhouette turned into the human figure of an old man. Finally, a somewhat familiar face, he had seen years ago on a auction appeared in Elijah's eyes.
"Hello boy, you seem to have grow well since i last saw you." The old man could not help but ask with a smile when he saw the increasingly stunned face Elijah was making.
"You… you are the old man i saw on that auction? What are you doing here?" Elijah's eyes stared at the old man in front of him. A moment later, he spoke in a somewhat disbelieving manner.
"hehe, Little Ell, from the moment you are born i was always watching you, as you are descendent of the one who killed my son, Thor. When you have left Thunder Hammer Kingdom, this avatar here was watching over your parents, even if you haven't saved them i would still help when they were taken." The old man smiled and explained.
"Also, you should not blame little Eir for making her own decision to watch over you, It is just that no matter your talent, the you then was alone and weak. So it was extremely dangerous if you tavelled alone. After arriving at the Valhalla Academy, you have draw so much atention from the other Divine Clans that we send little Eir to quietly go and protect you."
"And just she as said, they're really trying to release Fenrir and now our entire Clan are in danger of being destroyed. During the time where Fenrir was not released yet, we'll need to find them and get the key back before Fenrir released or the Giant Clan decides to attack."
"Originally, as she just reincarnated, her strength is very weak right now and she needs to enter a closed door training and deep meditate so she can restore her powers gradualy.Even then it's very dangerous as her power can burst at any moment. At first i was also worried about you, but now you are a Specter, i don't think you will face much danger." The old man smiled as he spoke.
"Originally, as she just reincarnated, her strength is very weak right now and she needs to enter a closed door training and deep meditate so she can restore her powers gradualy. Even then it's very dangerous as her power can burst at any moment and she would die. At first i was also worried about you, but now you are a Specter, i don't think you will face much danger." The old man smiled as he spoke. The hidden meaning behind these words was to show Elijah how much of a risk Chloe was taking just to stay with him.
"Ell, i will wait until you have become an expert that looks down on everyone, i always believed that you will stand at the peak of the universe. So you don't need to worry, okay?" Chloe softly said as her eyes were brimming with tears and she hugged him.
Elijah's arm was trembling repeatedly and his heart had become a mess due to everything he heard right now. Although he was still young and haven't experienced much of this world. Experiencing the growth of his feelings for Chloe on the Academy and then this kind of separation after experiencing all of this and danger of her clan being destroyed had really caused him to have a feeling of being unable to accept the situation.
Moreover, only at this moment did he clearly realize just what kind of weight the girl in front of him occupied within his heart.
Raising his hand, he caressed her face touching her tinylips with his fingers before his arm was abruptly extended and rounded that delicate and soft waist and their lips closed into a kiss.
The expression in old man's eyes was very happy as he found all of this amusing, like a old woman seeing the couple she wished so much to happen was finally happening.
Buring his head in Chloe's long green hair of which emitted a faint clean fragrance like the ones emitted from flowers. He said. "Chloe, wait for me. i don't understand everything you said, nor do I care how big or scary the giant clan or this Fenrir are, you are mine and not even a profecy can take you from me. If I need to become a expert in order to help you, I will strive to become the strongest of the experts and if a expert won't do, then i will become a God and if God won't do, then i will strive to become the greatest of the Gods and reach a entire new realm. I, Elijah Branches, swear in the name of every God that exist in this cosmos and that no one will be able to stop me! This is my oath!"
Even Chloe was surprised about his oath. Her emerald pupils flickered a little and she maneged to say. "You are realy a fool, right? If you do not keep an oath that you have made before the gods, not even your soul will be saved."
"I do no care about it."Elijah's eyes were filled with determination.
"If is so, then remember what you have said. I will wait to see you your entire new realm." Once she said this, light covered Chloe and the old man's body and they disappeared in the wind, leaving a sour feeling on Elijah's heart.
