Chapter 407: Grendel, Banshee and a Dragon

"Twelve hundred years"

"Ancestor... Did you see that? They have finally arrived. They have finally returned!"

"We did not break your promise. For a whole twelve hundred years, we have finally met the Valkyrie. They have finally come to find us!"

The old man of Axel cried bitterly, as if he had endless grievances, rushing out of his eyes with tears.

The loud cries of the old man could not be cut off by the rotten wooden house, which attracted the other people in the town.

At first, the villagers were still shocked why there were more than a dozen outsiders here.

However, after the little boy Jens explained, the villagers learned that it was the Valkyrie, and they were as excited as the old man. They all cried and howled into the sky.

For a time, the cries shook the sky.

Yallweite was very upset. From these voices, one could tell how much depression these villagers had accumulated!

As time passed, several people ran around to tell the news.

Almost all the people in the town gathered outside the wooden house, and the room was full of people.

The scene of hundreds of people crying and howling, even Lod, who was used to wind and waves, couldn't help but feel his eyelids jump.

"Don't cry!"

A thunderous voice sounded and suppressed everyone's crying.

They saw that they gathered outside the old man's house, in the vast crowd, they consciously separated a road, walked out a rough man with disheveled hair and slovenly appearance, which was exactly what Soi Fon mentioned.

"What a disgrace, all shut up!" Wiglaf's deep and deep voice rang out like thunder.

Wiglaf clearly had quite a bit of prestige in the small town. He swept his lion-like eyes around, and the agitated villagers obediently shut their mouths.

Seeing that the villagers had clearly calmed down, Wiglaf frowned and waved his hand. "Everyone, don't gather here for now. Let me talk to these Valkyries."

Although the villagers were unwilling, they did not dare to go against his words. One by one, they slowly left the small wooden house and crouched outside the house.

The house was empty in an instant, and Lod breathed a sigh of relief.

His buzzing mind finally calmed down at this moment.

"Are you... really the Valkyrie?"

Thus, under his mother's suggestion, Beowulf decided to travel around to increase his knowledge and experience.

After going through untold hardships, crossing the Navia Mountain Range and crossing the Baltic Sea, the young Beowulf arrived at the modern Denmark country. He heard that the king, Hrothgar, was offering a large reward to hunt a swamp monster that could harm the citizens.

Beowulf was young and vigorous, and he thought that he was peerless in martial arts, so he volunteered to accept the reward. He took the fourteen warriors gathered by the king and went to the swamp in the depths of the forest to find the terrifying monster that could harm the world - Grendel!

Grendel was born in the swamp. It was said that he was the descendant of the son of Adam, Cain, and because he also had the curse of God, everything withered and rot wherever he went. He was jealous of all the beautiful things in the world, so he wreaked havoc in the Denmark Kingdom for twelve years. Every time he appeared, dozens of lives would die.

The king of Denmark suffered a great deal of pain and had sent troops to suppress him several times.

However, due to the huge size of Grendel and the fact that he was immune to all poisons and sharp blades, the army of mortals was no match for it.

Finally, with the assistance of the fourteen warriors, Beowulf broke Grendel's arms with his bare hands and stabbed a javelin deep into the giant's chest.

Grendel panicked and ran back to the deeper parts of the forest. After arriving at his mother's nest, he exhausted all his strength and died. Therefore, in order to avenge his son, the forest banshee led countless poisonous sea snakes to invade the human world.

Beowulf went to the depths of the forest again. He found a silver sword in the nest of the banshee and cut off the head of the banshee. After completely dealing with the two monsters that caused the disaster, he returned to his hometown and inherited the throne of the mainland.

Fifty years after killing Grendel and the banshee, a powerful fire dragon suddenly appeared in the territory of the mainland. It roared and spat out endless flames, turning the world into a living hell, and countless people died because of it.

Beowulf, who was already old, resolutely embarked on the journey to hunt monsters for the country and the people.

He followed the traces left by the fire dragon and went all the way back to the forest where he killed the giants and the banshee when he was young. He found the nest of the fire dragon and found that it was full of broken silver armor. There were even many blades that were similar to the sword style in his hand, but had long been damaged on the outside.

The fire dragon he was searching for was on a hill made of countless armor.

At the same time, there was a remnant of the Valkyrie's consciousness in the broken armor, telling Beowulf a shocking secret.

In fact, the giant dragon was the giant Grendel who he had personally killed fifty years ago, but now it was possessed by another evil force!

If they could not defeat and seal this evil fellow, then the entire world would be destroyed by that evil force!

After a painful battle, Beowulf finally stabbed his sword into the dragon's abdomen. His neck was also pierced by the giant dragon's fangs, but unfortunately, the giant dragon would not be destroyed. It was only temporarily sealed.

Thus, Beowulf and the Valkyrie made an oath that before the next generation of Valkyries came to Midgard, they would guard this place for generations to ensure that the giant dragon would not break through the seal and descend again to destroy this world!

Before he died, Beowulf gifted the armor and the sword to a young warrior who followed him.

Under the advice of Valkyrie, the young warrior drank the blood of the dragon and obtained a life as long as the God Race. He built a small village near the mountain range that sealed the dragon. In the name of Beowulf's descendants, he guarded this place for generations.

At the end of the story, everyone suddenly came to a realization.

The young warrior who inherited Beowulf's armor and the sword was Wiglaf in front of him!
