Chapter 466 Valkyrie
"I shouldn't—"

When the morning arrived, Master Li, who had been busy all night, squatted at the gate of Village No. 23, looking at the drill in his hand with suspicion.

The earth veins are the bloodlines of the stars, and the magic power running through them is none other than the ether of the stars. Even if the earth veins cannot be found from the surface due to the obstruction of the magic power of ice and snow, why is it still like this when I have already walked underground?
If everything goes well, there is only one possibility left -

'Am I unlucky?'

Master Li, who had worked all night but gained nothing, couldn't help but doubt himself. Was it simply because the ground veins beneath Village 23 had been avoided?
After thinking for a long time without any result, Li Ye dispersed the Diamond of Light, clapped his hands and stood up.

"Ok?"

Li Ye's eyebrows jumped when he suddenly heard a loud noise. He turned around and saw several adult men and women walking towards the gate surrounded by children.

"congratulations!"

"We are all alive and well today! And, you have taken good care of us all this time! It's all thanks to the blessing of God!"

"Remember to say hello to everyone when you get there. After all, only three people went there last year—"

The cheers of boys and girls mixed together, celebrating this memorable day.

The child holding the flowers happily presented them to the young men and women who were about to embark on their journey home, and said with a smile: "Here, take this. These are the flowers that the boys cultivated together. You must decorate them when you get there!"

Hearing this, the smiling girl next to him was immediately dissatisfied and retorted: "Hey! Girls are also cultivated together! Really, idiot!"

"Don't call people stupid."

The boy puffed up his lips and said, "Today is a day when you can't swear."

Everyone was talking at the same time, and under this circumstance, everyone approached the door where Li Ye was. Behind him was the only gate to leave the village.

Li Ye also noticed that Ritsuka Fujimaru and Mashu were approaching from behind, and the girl Gerda was among them.

'Is this the great event Gerda was talking about?'

Li Ye glanced at the approaching crowd. Several young men and women stood out. They were at least 20 years old, neatly dressed, and holding flowers.

Li Ye couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. Since entering the village yesterday, he had not seen these young men except for his own perception. They seemed to be hiding in the houses preparing for other things.

If I remember correctly -

"Thank you everyone, thank you."

The young man holding the flowers smiled and said, "We are very happy to receive everyone's bouquets."

"Yes, yes, it's true."

The tearful-eyed woman sighed with emotion and said, "Fortunately, we were able to obey the will of the gods and raise you to be good children. Even if we go first, you still have to get along with each other in a friendly manner.

We will wait for you to come to the same place one day.

…………Everyone, take care of yourselves.”

Mashu, who was also witnessing this scene, immediately said, "It's the adult residents we didn't see yesterday. Several young men and women are taking something from the children.

Ah, Mr. Liye is at the door."

"Did he become a door god?"

Standing on tiptoe and looking at the gate, Fujimaru Ritsuka asked curiously, "Don't Chinese door gods require two people?"

Although he didn't hear Fujimaru Ritsuka's complaints, Li Ye still felt the offensive look.

"Yes, these are flowers that the children spent half a year growing together."

Gerda beside him explained: "It wouldn't work without those bouquets."

"Hey, what's wrong with not having those bouquets?"

Mashu asked with a curious look on his face.

"Without those, there's no way to get to Valhalla."

Gerda smiled and said, "Only souls holding proof of being loved can go to Valhalla. A long, long time ago, so long ago that people can't count, the gods have made such a rule." ".…………"

Hearing this, Fujimaru Ritsuka, who was still watching the fun, turned his head and said hesitantly, "Gerda, you are not talking about--"

Even Fujimaru Ritsuka knows the meaning of Valhalla.

"Valhalla—"

Mashu seemed to understand something and said in surprise, "Valhalla is the paradise in Norse mythology, also known as [Hall of Valor].

The palace of the great gods, the temple of warriors, Valhalla.

Only souls chosen by the Valkyrie, the messenger of the great god Odin, can go to this realm. Naturally, it is not a place that the living can go to."

Valhalla is a magnificent palace located in the kingdom of Asgard, ruled by Odin, king of the Aesir. Legendary heroes and kings also come to Valhalla.

Odin, the god in charge of war, will order the Valkyries to go to the battlefield on earth and select half of the brave warriors who died and bring them here, and the other half will go to Sessrúmnir, the goddess Freya's home. As for those who did not die in the battle, they will go to the underworld ruled by Hela.

In short, it is the final resting place of the dead.

"So, the special day Miss Gerda was referring to."

Mashu looked reluctant, but still said, "Could it be that you mean—"

When you reach the age of 25 and become an adult, you leave the village.

Leaving the village means facing the giants in the outside world and waiting for death to come.

"I have to thank you with more gifts, because, right?"

Gerda said seriously, "Master Mashu, Master Fujimaru Ritsuka, if I had been crushed by the giant, I would not have received the bouquet and my soul would have wandered endlessly.

You can’t go to Valhalla that way, so—”

Tread.

Li Ye, standing at the door, watched the crowd arrive. Young men and women with pious looks offered their prayers to the closed door.

After witnessing this moment of parting, Li Ye also understood the difference of this civilization.

In a human society that is not normally structured, the grace of raising children is a gift from God, and the young men and women who give birth to them and raise them only play the role of older brothers and sisters.

There is no special family affection, so at this special moment of farewell, everyone can offer congratulations from the bottom of their hearts.

"My Lord, my Lord."

The adults who arrived at the gate said devoutly: "Let us obey the will of God and offer everything—"

Time passed second by second until boundless holy light descended from the sky.

The sound of heaven transmitted from heaven is the will of God and the transmission of absolute divine power.

"Man, man, today is the day of the chosen one."

"People, your lives will be harvested today."

The ethereal declaration seemed to be telling the only truth in the world, as if telling the love from the only God.

“This is love. You should understand that this is the hand of love extended by the only God who remains on earth.

Man, man, bow your head and praise the ice and the light."

The light of the sky became brighter, and the blazing divine power reached far and wide, bringing with it the love of God.

Those who looked up at the sky from the earth could also catch a glimpse of the figure hanging high in the sky.

"Valkyrie, Valkyrie——"
