Chapter 1619 Ravens Arrived
"You are fine. Dodu just transformed into me so that we can escape." Adrian replied but it seems that Frey was still out cold as the next sentences that she said should only be said in her head.
"If there are two of you then maybe I should keep the cuter one. Boop!" Frey stated as she was still in great confusion as she touched Adrian's nose.
"Ehem. Should we leave you two alone or something?" The God Freyr stated.
"You should not bother them, brother. You do know that the battlefield is when emotions are at a high. Spilling your heart's desire for a minute or two will not change much of the outcome." The Goddess Freyja stated as she found the interaction cute.
Frey suddenly got rid of her confusion which suddenly made her realized what she just did. She screamed in shock and embarrassment before standing up on her feet. She apologized to Adrian about her rude gesture as she blushed from the things that she remembers doing.
"No worries. You were not totally yourself and I do not hold you accountable for such embarrassing things." Adrian stated so that Frey would not be too self-conscious when they interact further.
"Thank you. My goddess! I am glad that you have finally been freed but it seems that you are not yet at your full power. I can barely feel your energy even though I am this close to you." Frey stated as she immediately changed the subject as she was back into battle mode.
"I cannot use any of my energy because I am sealed with these chains. The God Odin himself has clasped these chains on me and it is made of the same enchanted material that was used to create Mjolnir. Although it was only made using the remaining scraps, the anti-magic property is still incredibly high.
More importantly, I should thank Champion Equinox for getting us out of that problem. All of my Valkyries are also safe and that is what matters the most. Thank you very much, Champion Equinox." The Goddess Freyja stated.
"Thank you for saving us." The other Valkyries stated as they bowed towards Adrian.
"You should all thank Frey for saving you because I am just someone that aided her in coming here. I would have wanted to accept that thank you, but we are currently stuck here in Niflheim." Adrian stated as he tried creating an artificial Bifrost with Dodu but all of them spells failed.
The entire world is currently being ravaged by a powerful mana storm that is due to the powerful energies clashing. The battle of the Frost Giants and the people of Asgard is so earth shattering that they could still feel the vibrations from their location. They are currently trapped in their location as they cannot go to the Bifrost for transportation.
"Let me look at those chains. Maybe I can figure something out." Adrian stated as he asked the Goddess Freyja's permission to look at it, but the runes were not familiar.
He would need to study them for a day at the very least in order for him to look what are the magic properties of the artifact. Adrian thought that the addition of the Goddess Freyja would help them navigate this world as she always took part in the wars with the frost giants. He hoped but the chains were not made using the same runes that were used in the creation of the Bifrost.
The group was brainstorming on what they should do next when Gullinbursti suddenly started to become frantic. The God Freyr suddenly told all of them to huddle up as he cast illusion magic and solidified it with his own divine power. The sound of two ravens screeching could be heard and this sound was extremely familiar with the two gods.
"Huginn and Muninn are here!" The God Freyr stated as he immediately reinforced the illusion once more.
"Huginn and Muninn? Who are they? Are they gods like the God Freyr and the Goddess Freyja?" Adrian asked as he is not that familiar with the names of the gods in Asgard.
"They are not exactly gods, but they also exude divine energy. They are the ravens that whisper every information they find to the God Odin. Although, it is said that they are separate entities, it is said that they are actually part of the God Odin's energy that he split from his body." Frey stated as she is quite knowledgeable about the gods in Asgard.
"They are basically the God Odin's eyes and ears that can fly freely to any part of the nine worlds. Even I do not know how they were created before I was born. The two ravens being here means that the God Odin is looking at this world right now." The God Freyr stated.
"How long did you think they have been observing?" The Goddess Freyja asked but no one could give a straight answer.
"If the God Odin has been observing us at the beginning them, we must part ways with this planet as fast as we can, my goddess." Brunhild stated.
If Huginn and Muninn were already aware of what they did then the God Odin is also aware of what happened in Niflheim. He might be currently sleeping but the transfer of information from Huginn and Muninn is always working as the God Odin's brain does not stop processing information. It is likely that the God Odin already knows that the God Freyr has betrayed him.
"Is there really no chance for you to create a portal to another world?" The God Freyr asked as he feels something wrong is about to happen.
"Unless the war stops or the mass of energy disappears from the atmosphere vanishes, then we are stuck here. I can try opening a portal, but I do not know where it might lead or what might come out of it. It is risky to create a normal portal when there is a mana storm." Adrians stated.
"We can maybe wait at least a day. The God Odin will not be able to wake up by tomorrow." The God Freyr told himself but even he does not know the timeline of when the God Odin will awaken.
"It seems that we have visitors." Adrian stated as he sensed some sort of energy that seems familiar outside the illusion.
The God Freyr lifted a part of the illusion and they saw three frost giants standing in front of their location. The frost giants did not have any bloodlust, but they still made sure to grasp their weapons. They are in another world where the people of Asgard terrorized the natives which means that some of them may be harboring ill intent, but they are just masking it.
"Do you think they can see us?" Frey asked as she thought that they were just scouting the area.
"They can see us. In fact, she is looking directly at us with those eyes. She can see through the illusion as she has special eyes." Adrian stated as he could see that the female frost giant was indeed looking straight at them.
"Huginn and Muninn are no longer in the area which means we can take off our cloaking spell. Will those frost giants not attack us if I take it down?" The God Freyr stated.
"If they wanted to attack us then would have already done so. A surprise attack is not unique to the battlefield, dear brother." The Goddess Freyja stated.
What the Goddess Freyja makes sense as the frost giants and the people of Asgard are at war right now. Nothing is off the table when it comes to attacking but the frost giants in front of them were just standing there. As if they were waiting for the other party to engage in discourse.
"I will go out of the cave. They would not be that angry at a demon since we have done nothing to them." Adrian stated as he started to walk to the cave entrance.
"Be careful." Frey stated to which Adrian replied with a thumbs up.
"Is there something that you need of me?" Adrian asked the frost giants in front of him.
"Are your other companions not going to show themselves?" The female frost giant asked as she could see that there are other people inside the cave.
"They are apprehensive about that because they are from Asgard. I am quite sure that you people did not follow them but followed me. You feel the energy that I am radiating despite my best attempts at concealing it." Adrian stated as he could feel that the female frost giant before him was adept at picking up energy signatures.
"You are correct. I am just here to observe whether that energy signature that was unfamiliar with me would be a threat to our race." The female frost giant stated as she checked Adrian's energy on why it feels vaguely familiar to theirs.
