Chapter 1616 Niflheim II
Adrian is actually shocked to see a flying golden boar as he did not expect that those two combinations would be possible. His views on how strange the creatures of Pandemonium have grown even vaster because of this experience. He looked at Gullinbursti and could feel that the golden boar is actually at least Mythical tier.
"Then we should infiltrate the settlement. We can help them immediately as long as you know the way to the dungeons." Frey stated as she wanted to help the Valkyries as soon as possible.
"I would have to put a pedal on your enthusiasm on that one." Adrian stated as the settlement that they described is actually a full-on castle town.
The place that they would have to sneak into would be a place that is fortified like a bastion. Powerful soldiers that are patrolling the walls and taking shifts. Adrian also noticed the numerous jewels embedded on the walls that detects any invisible enemy.
"The whole area is something that wards off any potential enemies. They made it so that even a frost giant masquerading as snow would not be able to set foot on that castle." Adrian added.
"I agree with Champion Equinox. There is also some bad news that I must tell you. Thor is at that castle right now. It seems that he is the one that arrived early in order to prepare for the upcoming war. We are quite lucky that it is not Loki as that one would easily sniff us out.
Thor thinks more through his heart and muscle instead of his brain. We can sneak past him given the perfect timing, but we cannot do so right now when he is vigilant. They are the most vigilant now that the war with the Frost Giants is near." The God Freyr stated.
"Why would they transfer prisoners here in Niflheim though when war is near? Are they going to use them as cannon fodder?" Adrian asked as he knows that that was usually the case when prisoners are brought to the battlefield.
"They would not be entirely cannon fodder but they would become vanguards. They will be the first one that would take the brunt of the assault. My sister would no doubt have the same fate as the other Valkyries since her strength is also restricted in this world." The God Freyr stated.
"If that is the case then we will have to modify the plans. Listen to me carefully as we will become really busy after I explain everything." Adrian stated as he told them his plan.

The God Thor walked to the dungeons of the Asgardian settlement to look for a prisoner there. Inside the deepest prison was none other than the Goddess Freyja. She was being kept there but she was still treated slightly well as she was still a goddess of war.
The Asgardian Gods would not dare to easily punish her because she has an effect of making wars into victorious battles. She is like a good luck charm in the battlefield which is why she was brought here in Niflheim for the upcoming war. In fact, all of the Valkyries would join this war as they would make sure that no soldier will fall in battle.
"You are here again. I thought I told you that I do not like visitors." The Goddess Freyja stated as she could be seen having a thin layer of frost on her skin.
She was imprisoned on the deepest parts of the dungeon which is extremely cold. A normal human would freeze to death under ten minutes if they were in the same situation as her. There are also some wounds on her body which is the proof that the God Loki did not show mercy when he punished her.
"Why do you not want to return to the main world? You would not have been in this position if you have just agreed or at least took a neutral stance like the others." The God Thor stated.
"If it is returning to the main world then I would have also liked that. We would have been able to return in a hundred years or so if all of you just waited. Instead, all of you devised plans and schemes to break down the divine realm barrier when all of you know that the mortals living in the main world are not powerful enough to combat the threats that will come for them." The Goddess Freyja stated.
"We cannot wait another century, Freyja. You know that as we cannot live in Asgard for long. The resources of that world have already been dried up by us. We need to return to the main world where the resources are abundant and never ceases." The God Thor stated.
"If you just wanted resources for the mortals then it is already too plenty. My brother made sure that no mortal that was under our care would starve. They are even living lives that they want because we have made food abundant.
It is not food you want but resources to feed your egos. You want to go back to the main world because there are some resources there that can help you ascend to a higher level of power. You do not want to return to the main world for the mortals under our care but for your own selfish desires." The Goddess Freyja stated.
"You are not understanding us because you are still worshiped in the main world unlike us! Your Valkyries can go to Midgard without problems because of the covenant that you had with the Twin Gods. You sacrificed a lot of your own divine energy to make that happen and now you are just a Greater God." The God Thor stated.
"I am worshipped in Midgard because I sacrificed what I had to maintain my connection to my followers. All of you could have done so as well and just sent out representatives like me but you have turned deaf to the followers you left behind. This is the reason why all of you do not have followers in Midgard." The Goddess Freyja stated as she knew what she has done and does not regret it.
She did not want her followers in Midgard to suffer from the sudden onslaught of powerful monsters that are now being born to the world. She tried her best to persuade Odin to not go with his plan and she thought that she did as he agreed. Later on, she learned that Loki under Odin\'s command had made Midgard incredibly turbulent.
She learned that Loki was the one that planted the seeds of having a Dark God descend. She also learned that Loki was the one that planned on having the angels sealed in the Silver City to be released. Her last straw was Loki helping in unleashing the fragments of Apophis which made the western continent incredibly turbulent.
Due to what Loki has done, the Goddess Freyja confronted the God Odin as he broke his promise. What the God Odin told her made her incredibly shocked because the god that she admired was no longer thinking for the people. The God Odin no longer thought of the mortals that he promised to nurture but only himself.
"What have I done wrong? They would be released even if we let them be. I only sped up the process by using the abilities of Loki. We must return to Midgard, and I will make sure of that even if I have to imprison you myself." The God Odin told the Goddess Freyja.
The Goddess Freyja tried battling Odin, but she was not able to stop him. She sacrificed a lot of her divine authority to make sure that the Valkyries will be given free pass to Midgard. She might have loss some of her divinity from being High God, but she was not an easy opponent.
The God Odin had to use his full knowledge of the runes in order to restrain the Goddess Freyja. She was not killed because she is not that easy to kill in Asgard. She is also a Goddess of War that brings forth victories and Odin needs that power should they return to Midgard.
"I will not help you in this upcoming battle even if you beg me for it." The Goddess Freyja stated as she already knew what the God Thor wanted from her.
"A pity because I have brought your precious children with me. They would be the vanguard of the war that will happen in a few days. If you do not give your blessing to the army then I am afraid that they will inevitably die a dog\'s death." The God Thor stated as he frowned because the one that thought of this was not him but the God Loki.
