Destroying My Own World-Chapter 73 Sharpening the blades.
Mykel and the others walked into the portal, and when they arrived, they were amazed by what they saw. It was similar to Norway, and they could see everything from where they stood since they were right on top of the mountain. The thing that made them all freeze still was when they saw the Yggdrasil tree and all the worlds that existed above them.
"This feels familiar and yet not at the same time. This place is a lot more beautiful than what we have in our world," Jeanne said as she looked at the Yggdrasil tree that covered the sky.
Everyone looked at how Midgard was still the same world as Norway, and it surprised them. The only difference was that it felt like they were dreaming rather than in reality. They had no idea in what kind of state they were at that moment, and it bothered them so much about the truth of Gods on Earth.
When they were looking around and wandering at the peak of the mountain, they heard a loud trumpet that came from above. They knew what it was, and they didn't hesitate to hold their weapons tightly to fight.
They saw dozens of dots in the vast sky that were slowly descending toward them at high speed. They knew where those came from, and who they were seeing the dark clouds formed behind the dots.
"They're your teachers, are you ready to fight the real them this time?" Aurea asked as she looked at Sven.
"What are you talking about? One of them is your teacher as well," Sven asked and stared back at Aurea.
"Who? I don't know who are you talking about," Aurea asked back with a smirk on her face. "It's been a while, so I hope you don't lose. It would be embarrassing," Aurea said.
"Says you," Sven scoffed.
The thunder started to rumble and they knew what was coming next. When the lightning struck them, they saw a big bearded man, five times bigger than Gunnar standing in front of them. His eyes sparked lightning and his gaze was like someone who could burn a soul inside.
"This is a first and last warning. Leave," Thor said with his deep voice that trembled the ground.
"I have no business with you here," Mykel answered and stared back at Thor. "Unless you want to put yourself in between," Mykel said as he raised his eyebrows.
Thor didn't hesitate to swing his hammer down right onto Mykel's head, but Mykel grabbed it with his right hand. The lightning struck Mykel, but he was immune to it which shocked Thor, and then Mykel kicked him away as he stole the hammer from Thor's hand.
Thor fell from the top of the mountain all the way down to the ground and made a crater around him. He could feel the sting on his left thigh from the kick that Mykel did. He then looked up at the mountain as he tried to bring his hammer back to his side, but the hammer didn't come to him.
"You really love to take things from others, huh?" Aurea asked as she looked at the hammer in Mykel's hand that was trying to fly back to Thor's side.
"Habit," Mykel replied and let go of the hammer. "You should greet them as well. It's going to be messy," Mykel warned as he looked at the sky.
"Ahh... my beautiful wings..." Aurea said as she pulled out the black wings on her back. "I'll keep them company, I won't let them down," Aurea continued and then flew away.
Rozan summoned his dragon, and it put him to tears to be able to see his creations again. He then hopped onto Alpha's back and flew away where the flap of his wings was enough to create a hurricane.
Bhatmelec and the others decided to join them as well since they wanted to sharpen their powers again. It was Jeanne and Elena who left that stayed with Mykel because Jeanne thought she wasn't needed up there. Elena on the other hand, hadn't gotten the life energy to fill her body, so she didn't want to do anything until her body was full.
"Do you want to play with him? I have to meet with Odin," Mykel asked as he looked at Jeanne.
"Just play, right?" Jeanne asked.
"Yes. It won't take long, so you can do whatever you want with him. It would be great if you can compare his strength with the one from our world," Mykel answered.
Jeanne nodded her head and swung her sword around, and then she spread out her glowing white wings. She looked so happy that her power was back, and she was excited to test every skill she had again.
Mykel held Elena's hand and gave a lot of his life energy to fill her needs so she could fly with him. They both flew toward the Yggdrasil tree and then they saw sparks of lightning from down below. It was Thor, and he was about to stop him from going further, and when he flew toward Mykel, Jeanne blocked his hammer with her sword.
"You're not going anywhere," Jeanne said and then pushed Thor back to the ground again.
Mykel saw it and smirked because he could see that she had overpowered Thor's strength. It was enough to tell him that he didn't have any reason to be wary of the Gods anymore.
Thor grunted as he tried to stand up, and when he flipped his hammer, he realized something that shocked him. His hammer was damaged from clashing with Jeanne's sword, and that made him a bit nervous.
Mykel looked up and saw Aurea's wings that were big enough to put a hundred people around it. The wings that were passed down to her from Mazikeen, and were enough to intimidate all the Valkyries in front of her.
Rozan was standing on top of Alpha's head and watched the Valkyries try to cut Alpha's skin. They were unable to pierce through his tough skin and even though some of them managed to cut it open, it regenerated instantly.
"(Something is wrong with me)" Bhatmelec said to Mykel. "(My power isn't working. I can't stop the time at all, I can only slow it down)" Bhatmelec pointed out as she fought six Valkyries on her own.
"(It's because we are in a world that isn't belong to the system. Just wait a little longer, it should be back soon)" Mykel answered.
Mykel flew up with Elena as he kept giving her a lot of life energy that his hand felt numb because of it. He could see the rest of them fighting with the rest of the Valkyries in the air. The battle looked so fierce, and surprisingly they were equal in terms of combative power.
"So Midgard is Earth, and nothing is different. Doesn't that mean we are in a different dimension?" Elena asked as she looked down.
"I believe so, and this Midgard is basically Northern Europe. Midgard is the world that the Norse Gods built, just like in the United States," Mykel answered. "We will know the answer once we arrived in Valhalla," Mykel continued.
Mykel and Elena looked at Vanaheim and Alfheim that were on the tree branches, on opposite sides of the tree. They both looked up and saw Asgard wrapped inside the top of the trunk with the space above them.
Once they landed on the tree trunk and wanted to enter the giant tunnel, a man in full armor blocked their path. He had a giant sword in his hands and a horn hanging from his waist. He was the protector and watch of Asgard, Heimdall.
"You can read minds, and you should know why I'm here," Mykel said.
"Follow me," Heimdall said as he turned around and entered the tunnel.
Elena was a bit surprised why Heimdall didn't act like Thor, and how Mykel knew that Heimdall wouldn't attack them. She was again amazed by how easy it was for Mykel to deal with everything even without using his power.
The tunnel was long and dark, but it was peaceful and cold, and then the ground they walked on started to light up. It brightened the tunnel, and they could see the end of the tunnel a mile away from where they were.
After they reached the end of the tunnel, they saw the beautiful city where castles and palaces became one with the tree as the dark space and the bright sun above them. It was so beautiful that made Mykel realize his imagination was nothing compared to the real one.
Heimdall entered Valhalla with Mykel and Elena behind him, and then they saw knights standing on guard on the sides. It was nothing but a big and long hall where the throne was at the end of the hall. They saw a man with gray long hair and a beard sitting on the throne with his spear in his left hand.
Mykel stood in front of Odin as the guards were ready to strike him if he made a sudden move.
"What's your reason to come here," Odin asked and his voice echoed throughout the hall.
"I came to thank you," Mykel answered. "Without you, my daughter would be dead by now, and that's all I have to say," Mykel said.
"You made a mess just to thank me? And do you think I would accept it?" Odin asked.
"That will depend on your answer. I can leave without making a scene or I can stay and bring you down to your knees," Mykel answered. "So, choose wisely," Mykel said with a smirk.
