Chapter 142
I Obtained a Mythic Item
Episode 142 Hrungnirâs Memories (3)
âO antagonist of the prophecy. I know you will be looking at this memory now.
My child⦠help Smir.â
Jaehyun clenched his fists involuntarily at the earnest words he heard.
âYes⦠Hrungnir had intended to show me his memories from the beginning. He must have already agreed with Urd.â
You can tell just by looking at the resonance between Urdâs mirror and the Nornir system.
From the beginning, Hrungnir was preparing for the end.
The great ruins were created for the son who will remain alone and the antagonist of the prophecy that will appear in the future.
He never gave up until the very end.
Jaehyun took a deep breath.
Of course, itâs an unbearably angry situation, but you have to be patient.
Because getting angry here and now doesnât change anything.
Turbuck. Turbuck.
The sound of a giant walking. Before I knew it, Hrungnir stood in front of Thor.
âHere you are.â
Thor pulls out his hammer with a fishy smile on his face.
At the same time, the sky darkened and the power of lightning permeated Mjolnir.
Tsutsutâ¦â¦!
âIsnât that too much to begin with?â
It was Hrungnirâs question, but Thor answered with a smirk.
âI canât help but face the strongest of the giants.â
âThank you very much for that.â
âThen letâs begin.â
with Thorâs voice.
Chaeeng!
The hammer and whetstone collided and the battle between the two transcendent beings began.
It was Thor who went first.
He quickly leaped into the air and swung Mjolnir down with force. The lightning bolts on the hammer quickly rushed towards Hrungnir.
Quarrrrr!
Hrungnir also did not lose and blocked the electric shock using a whetstone.
However, it was impossible not to take damage at all.
Mjolnir is an artifact created with the goal of killing a giant in the first place. No matter how hard Hrungnir had a heart of stone, it was impossible for common sense to nullify all shocks.
âKheop!â
The new model of Hrungnir was pushed back.
Thor looked at Hrungnirâs distorted face with a fishy sneer.
âI wanted to make a decision with you from the beginning. Hrungnir.â
âso. Are you satisfied now?â
âno.â
Thor denied it and gripped the hammer a little tighter.
Immediately, Mjolnir, which was lifted up, exploded with highly concentrated magic power.
âI cannot be satisfied unless I kill you. Isnât that obvious?â
Tsutsutsutsu!
At the same time, a thunderstorm raged in the sky with clouds gathering in it.
Soon after, the fierce lightning slowly condensed towards Thor, and then flew towards Hrungnir.
Kurrrrr! thud!
With two consecutive noises, Hrungnirâs body, which blocked the electric shock, was pushed back.
A suffocating hostility imbued with magical power. Jaehyun sighed unconsciously.
âItâs a different fight. As of now, I canât even reach my toes.â
Iâm sorry, but I couldnât help but admit it. Thor is strong.
Hrungnir is also improving, but he cannot defeat Thor with that much power.
âWhy but? Even that proud heart of stone, does my brain strike hurt?â
Hrungnir stumbled and continued forward.
My body was almost at its limit as I was trying to block the electric shock that had just poured out.
âWhy are you doing this?â
âWhat are you talking about?â
âWhy are you trying to take more while taking the lives of innocent people?â
âHmm⦠was that a story? What can I tell you honestly?
I donât know either.â
Hrungnirâs expression darkened at Thorâs playful words.
It was Thor.
âOh, donât be angry. Really. I also donât know why. It is the will of the great Odin, how can I go against it? is not it?â
âAre you saying you want to live like your fatherâs puppet for the rest of your life?â
âWell, as long as I can fight a strong guy, I donât care what happens.â
Thor added, swinging his hammer around.
âThe boring story ends here. I ask one too.
Hrungnir. Why did you agree to fight me? You should have known it was a trap.â
âBecause I had something to protect.â
At Hrungnirâs falling reply, Thor gathered the bright yellow lightning again.
âWhat to keep. It must be protected⦠Do you have any of that left?
Neither your foolish wife nor your own people. I know almost all of them are in coffins.â
âIt still remains. their value.â
âThe dead donât talk.â
âsomeday. Asgard will fall.â
âThe prophecy of the three Norn sisters⦠do you believe it? An adversary will appear?â
Hrungnir didnât answer and just raised the whetstone.
A clear expression of intent not to answer. Even Thor took a warlike attitude.
A powerful wave of magical energy erupted from his body as he lifted Mjolnir.
âI will do whatever you want. Go to your stupid fellows.â
Thor controlled the surge of brain energy and fired another lightning bolt.
It is embarrassing to compare it to Jung Woo-minâs chain of lightning copied by Jae-hyun.
Tsutsutsutsutsutâ¦!
âSuck!â
Hrungnir began to block the enemyâs attack, breathing heavily.
He was concentrating all his remaining mana on using communication magic.
That moment. Jaehyun began to hear Hrungnirâs voice.
[Adversary. Can you hear it?]
[If you hear it, keep in mind.]
Quaaaaaang!
Hrungnirâs body, which had silently endured Thorâs attack, was stained black.
It didnât hit Mjolnir directly, but it was that much of a wound just by brushing against it.
Tears welled up in Smirâs eyes as he looked up at his father from below. I had to save even a little bit of mana and wrap it around my body. Otherwise, itâs a really dangerous situation.
However, Hrungnir already knew.
that he would die here.
The communication magic continued.
[You are the only direction you need to go.]
[Donât be shaken.]
Jaehyunâs eyes calmly fell.
Hrungnir, who was fighting the enemy, ran towards Thor after saying everything.
Kick off the ground and leap, quickly closing the distance to the center of the enemy.
However, the enemy only looked down at him floating in the air with a sullen face.
Like watching bugs move.
Thorâs eyes were pitch black. To him, Hrungnir was just a prey.
Or worse, it was nothing more than a toy.
âI will give you one last courtesy.â
With that, Thor threw Mjolnir at Hrungnirâs head.
A hammer that flies exactly in the direction Hrungnir is running.
âfatherâ¦â¦!â
Smirâs piercing screams can be heard from below.
However, Hrungnir did not stop and went straight ahead in silence.
[Be sure to tell Smir that you are sorry. Resent your ugly father.]
After Hrungnir squeezed his magic to the limit and delivered the last words, Hrungnir also threw his whetstone.
Kwachang!
The two weapons colliding in the air ended in a one-sided victory for one side.
Thorâs hammer pierced the whetstone and flew down without losing power.
Mjolnir accelerated and continued straight ahead, piercing Hrungnirâs stomach accurately.
âItâs almost over. Iâm barely breathing Hrungnir. Itâs more disappointing than I thought.â
mischievous smile. At the same time as Thorâs words fell.
A very small change occurred.
âThis one!â
One of the broken pieces of the whetstone flew right into Thorâs forehead.
The shrapnel rushed right through and lodged itself in Thorâs forehead.
âHeuk!â
Thor groaned furiously as he touched his bleeding forehead.
âHrungnirâ¦! I didnât intend to win from the start. you were aiming for this shit!â
I just found out
Why did Hrungnir, who was only defending himself, run at him at the last moment?
To attack oneself with fragments.
âThe powerâ¦â¦ doesnât go in properly.â
It wasnât just Thor who was surprised.
âThorâs magical power⦠is decreasing?â
Jaehyunâs eyes narrowed. He quickly used his magic detection to re-measure Thorâs overwhelming magic power he had felt just a moment ago.
However, the result was completely different from before.
âThor⦠is weak. The total amount of horsepower was reduced by at least 20%. But⦠why?â
âHrungnirâs whetstone has the power to offset the enemyâs magical power. Since that fragment is embedded in the head, one of the cores of magical power, it is only natural that the magical power that can be operated will decrease.â
Thanks to Hellaâs explanation, Jaehyun finally realized how things had turned out.
âYouâve been aiming for it from the beginning. He sacrificed himself to weaken Thorâs power.â
âIt was a decision I made for you.â
âPrecisely, it will be for the one who will fight Thor in the future.â
Jaehyun corrected it, but he had no choice but to focus on the situation that soon resumed.
The enraged Thor came down to the ground and stood in front of the fallen Hrungnir.
The appearance of a giant who was barely breathing and virtually dead.
Jaehyun held his breath involuntarily.
After a while. Thorâs trembling voice continued.
âHow dare a giant humiliate me like this. Do you think this can be forgiven?â
âCool! Forgiveness⦠to ask for⦠no. Iâm⦠coke!â
However, Hrungnirâs words were not finished.
It was because Thor, who had Mjolnir in his hand again, approached Hrungnir and placed his foot on his chest.
Hrungnir could not resist.
Everyone in the arena felt it. It is as if the life of a giant is no longer there.
Heavy words fell from Jaehyunâs mouth as he watched this.
âItâs a fucking ending.â
âIt is also the future you must change.â
âIknow, right. You guys left me with a filthy, difficult fate.â
Aaaaaaaaa!
Many spectators cheered as they saw the giant collapsed on the floor.
It was to celebrate Thorâs victory.
However, only tears flowed endlessly from the eyes of a giant abandoned alone.
Smir. As he witnessed the death of his father following his mother, something that had been pulled tight in his heart was cut off.
At the end of intense emotions, all that remains is pitch-black emptiness and loneliness.
âBy doing this⦠what did my father get?â
Smirâs empty voice is heard.
Jaehyunâs head bowed. At the same time, along with a torrent of emotion, magic was released.
The mana of reappearance that spreads like a blaze and the atmosphere of Asgard that circulates.
The activated magic gathers at one point of Jaehyunâs fingertips, and is soon radiated and scattered in the form of threads.
Hella spoke calmly.
âReap Jaehyun-gunâs mana. These are just memories of the past. If you raise your mana too much right now, there may be problems with memory retrieval.â
Jaehyun laughed lightly, ignoring Hella.
âokay. Dangerous. But there are plenty of possibilities to walk.â
Jaehyun knew.
However, nothing can be changed as it is.
Although weakened, Thor is an overwhelming force.
In order to deal with such a strong person, there was no choice but to find a short cut.
However, Hella, who did not understand Jaehyunâs intention, continued to elaborate.
âNow you canât change anything in this memory, and even if you do, nothing will change. Youâre clever, donât you know?â
âDo not worry. I am not an overly emotional person.
What happens to the guy whoâs already dead. Itâs not my business. Itâs justâ¦â
No. Jaehyun added that and quickly opened the subspace.
Hella tilted her head.
After a while. What Jaehyun took out from his inventory was none other than a blank card.
âYou canâtâ¦!â
Hellaâs eyes trembled as she watched Jaehyunâs actions.
Jaehyun turned the card around once and said.
âI thought it would be better if I gave Thor a shot.â
Just in time, Thor raised Mjolnir to end Hrungnirâs breath.
Unfortunately, Jaehyun had been waiting for this moment.
The time when the thunderbolt that moved to Mjolnir over Thorâs head drew out high-pressure mana.
âYou can use a blank card.
âCaution! This skill is too high for the userâs level!
âCopied skills cannot be fully used until the userâs level does not rise.
âDo you want to copy the passive skill «The Power of the Thunder God»?
âokay.â
Jaehyun laughed.
