Chapter 1015: Chapter 95 Freya, Take Off Your Skirt
A few days later, the Immortal Palace.
Accompanied by the flowing radiance of the Rainbow Bridge, Luo En and Brynhild, returning from Midgard, appeared at the transit station.
“Back already?”
In the hall, Freya smiled warmly at Luo En, while the nine Valkyrie Captains behind her looked excitedly at Brynhild.
She was the one who taught them combat skills during battles and cared for them in their daily lives—”Big Sister”—almost akin to both a teacher and a half-mother figure.
Compared to the two elusive and mysterious superiors they usually had, naturally, they felt much closer to Brynhild.
Ever since learning that Brynhild was banished to Midgard, they had repeatedly pleaded with Father God Odin for leniency, but they had never been able to soften Odin’s cold heart.
No one expected that the legendary superior, Loki, would step in and imdiately convince Father God to revoke Brynhild’s punishnt and allow her return to the Immortal Palace.
This ti, let’s see how the new little girl manages to act arrogantly!
The nine Valkyrie Captains sward Brynhild, chattering away excitedly. Their varying tones created a rather noisy scene that echoed boisterously throughout the empty hall.
Seeing the faint hint of embarrassnt on Brynhild’s face, Luo En, understandingly, waved his hand:
“Since it’s a rare reunion, go catch up first. The duel officially begins in three days; I’m looking forward to your performance.”
“Rest assured, Sir! We certainly won’t let you down!”
Brynhild nodded solemnly like a soldier receiving her orders.
The Valkyries behind her also raised their fists to their chests, sweeping away any lingering defeat-induced frustrations, replacing them with radiant pride and confidence.
Watching the Valkyries surround Brynhild as they made their way off in a lively procession, Freya let go of her public-facing elegance, revealing a sly smile tinged with schadenfreude:
“Now this will be entertaining.”
“What?”
“Of course, the duel between Brynhild and Skulde (Scouty) three days later.”
Luo En caught the implicit aning and furrowed his brow slightly, responding:
“The nine Valkyrie Captains have already lost. Adding Brynhild to the mix is unlikely to change the outco.”
“That’s not necessarily true; don’t underestimate Brynhild and her little group of girls.”
Freya laughed lightly, shaking her head with an inscrutable air, hinting:
“When Odin sent this daughter here, it definitely wasn’t just to help out.”
“That Odin…”
Luo En rubbed his forehead, once again fighting the urge to vent his frustrations at the antics of his Blood Alliance brother.
Based on Freya’s hint, Brynhild was most likely Odin’s way of undermining her authority.
After all, the Valkyrie Corps—a faction previously under the control of Freya, a Warner Goddess who had clashed with the Asa Divine Race—was a force Odin couldn’t fully trust. Naturally, he would make calculated moves to fortify his position.
Brynhild was clearly the “insurance policy” Odin had prepared.
And since she was ant to counterbalance and restrain Freya, then Brynhild’s potential combat capability should align with the Chief God level.
However, judging by Brynhild’s past battle performance, Luo En couldn’t help but doubt:
“If I recall correctly, her strength isn’t as formidable as yours.”
“Valkyries excel not in solo combat, but in group tactics.”
Freya spoke leisurely before musing with a hint of playful intrigue:
“Ever since she took over as Commander of the Valkyrie Corps, I, as the God of Love, have been much less burdened. I’ve barely ddled in the corps’ internal affairs. In terms of familiarity with these Valkyries, she knows them far better than I do. Moreover, I’ve heard she specifically developed a secret tactic capable of transcending levels to defeat powerful enemies. Without understanding its inner workings, the newcor you brought from the Giant Country might suffer a loss in the arena.”
As Freya spoke, the schadenfreude gleaming on her face grew even stronger.
Both Brynhild and Skulde seed eager to replace her, aiming to rise above their roles.
Although Freya, after becoming the God of Love, had lost interest in the violent struggles tied to Valkyrie command or battle, she still felt uneasy about seeing sothing she once controlled taken away.
Faced with two subordinates intent on mutiny, she couldn’t wait to see them engage in a ruthless battle, leaving themselves battered and bloodied for her to gleefully observe.
“Even if Brynhild manages to unleash strength comparable to yours, she still might not triumph against Skulde.”
Luo En cast a sidelong glance at Freya, clearly displeased with her eagerness for drama. He tactfully alluded to Skulde’s prowess, which slightly exceeded the Chief God level.
Freya seed unfazed, shaking her head dismissively and responding:
“Raw strength doesn’t always determine the outco; a warrior’s mindset is also crucial on the battlefield. Having promised you she’ll give her best, Brynhild certainly won’t surrender easily. And besides, it’s been only a short while, but the [Love and Desire] Authority I infused into her body has grown astonishingly powerful—almost surpassing , the God of Love.”
So you’re the one behind it!
Luo En’s expression darkened, finally understanding the root of Brynhild’s occasional bouts of irrational behavior.
And the source, most likely, was Odin’s conniving plan.
“Where is he now?”
“Still holed up in his quarters, cozying up to my mother. Want to join for a peek?”
“No thanks; that’s not my kind of entertainnt.”
Luo En temporarily suppressed his urge to confront Odin, standing up with the intention of heading to the Eternal Garden for a eting with the more reliable Fate Goddesses, Urd and Belldandy, to strategize their next moves.
