Chapter 51: Jörmungard's Daughter

"My ...... My host ......"

The girl's lips trembled, and she wanted to say something, but she was speechless for a while, and her body that was paralyzed on the ground could only kneel on the ground with tears of joy, and bow down to the behemoth that covered the entire sky.

It's been a hundred years.

Countless prayers for hundreds of years have finally been answered in this moment.

The instinctive fervor of her body's blood was mixed with the eagerness of the past hundred years, and she could not suppress the trembling, the fear, the trembling, and the joy in her heart.

For her, who has the power of the big snake mixed in her body, there is no need for any reason to worship the big snake, because this is from nature, just like sleeping when you are sleepy, and eating when you are hungry.

And indifferently looking down at the tiny dust beneath her, the deep voice of the great snake sounded in her ears.

"For hundreds of years, I have been trapped in the depths of the sea, and the world has long forgotten my name and fear of me. ”

These sounds are not made by the serpent itself, and its body structure is not strong enough to support human sounds, but its psychic power is so great that even a small leak is enough to cause the outside world to react to it, and its voice can be heard in the air.

It wasn't so much that he was talking, but rather that his mental power was poured directly into the subject's mind.

"The gods cannot trap you forever, my lord, and the day will come when you will break free from the chains that the gods have attached to you and show your wrath to the gods, and the whole universe will tremble before your power. ”

The girl prostrate on the ground, throwing herself to the ground, and said reverently to the giant beast above her head.

The trembling crisp voice and extremely eager eyes all showed the big snake her fanaticism for the big snake.

Ordinary people often have some kind of need for the worship and belief of gods, but the girl does not, or rather, her own needs are worship and belief itself, she is eager to worship and believe in this giant beast, this is her instinct.

She was born of the power of the Great Serpent and gave her all to the Great Snake.

"But I can't stand !!"

As if the serpent had been angered by some words such as shackles in the girl's words, its eyes turned red, and it roared in rage, and the sky became gloomy.

In this dream world, which is both real and fantastic, those strange purple thunderbolts travel in the sky.

God is as powerful as a mountain, and God is as graceful as the sea.

This sentence is not an exaggeration to put on the body of the great snake, and in the face of the great snake's rage, the girl can only lie deeper and lower, in order to show her deference to the creator as much as possible.

When the serpent's anger gradually subsided, the girl said softly and respectfully.

"My lord, is there anything I can do if you have summoned me?"

After all, hundreds of years of experience are not covered, and she is very keenly aware that her master seems to have something to do for her.

"Go and form a sect, grow it, expand it, and let the kings and heroes be at our disposal, and they may be my help against the gods when I get out of trouble. ”

Overhead, a large snake with no end in sight covered the entire sky, and a low voice sounded like thunder, and the girl fell to the ground obediently, obeying the order of the big snake.

Immediately, a drop of black liquid fell in front of the girl.

"Drink my blood, and you will receive my power. ”

"Go to the East, take my will and strength, go to the swamps there and drive the vipers and beasts born of my flesh and blood, they will obey your commands, and the entire continent in the east, in those swamps eroded by my venom, you will be able to rule that region as the Lord of the East, and expand your power. ”

For the sake of this chess piece, the big snake also attaches great importance to it, and even uses a drop of his own blood as a price.

This drop of blood is enough to transform a mortal into a demigod.

And with the voice of the big snake, looking at the black blood in front of her in dismay, the girl's face showed a look of flattery and panic.

"My master, this ...... How can you give your servants with your blood? ”

Faced with the precious blood of the serpent, the girl's first thought was panic and anxiety about the serpent taking out his own blood for himself.

There is no doubt that in her heart, the serpent is naturally the most noble, and even if it is a drop of blood, it should never be shed.

This kind of unreserved and wholehearted devotion is probably the only way to have such devotion in this kind of inhuman life mixed with the power of the serpent.

"And what do you need?"

The serpent's deep voice descended from the sky.

The girl's face changed a few times, and finally she gritted her teeth and bowed deeply to the big snake above her head, and mustered up the courage to reply.

"Please...... Give me a name. ”

She lay on the ground, unable to see the movement of the snake above her head, only to feel as if the top of her head had become quiet.

It was a long time before she heard a laugh.

"Huh...... Hahahaha...... Hahahahaha......ha

The serpent's wild laughter sent a storm through the sky, a little angry, but also a little approving.

"Bold idea, but I have agreed, and you will have a name that I have given you. ”

"Mona, loneliness, wishes, you are destined to be lonely forever, looking at the wishes of others, but your own wishes will never be fulfilled. You have my strength in you, and you will be regarded as my daughter, and I promise you in the name of Jörmungård to be the lord of the east, but the vipers and beasts may not obey you. ”

"Go, bring those serpent descendants under your rule, and prove your courage and ability to your father. ”

As soon as the words fell, the white mist suddenly rose, drowning the girl's sight.

......

"Ahh

Suddenly she woke up from a nightmare, her forehead was covered with sweat, and her eyes were full of fear.

How long has it been, how long has it been since you felt fear......

Ever since she became an immortal inhuman, she hadn't dreamed or felt fear for a long time.

"Yes...... Dreams?"

She touched her hot forehead, and her words were a little hesitant.

If it's a dream, then this dream may not be too real, those white fogs, and ...... The figure of the big snake is so real.

Her erect snake pupils turned, and then froze......

On the small altar beside her, the flesh and blood of the worship were gone, and only the pure gold snake statue was looking down on her coldly.

......

The maiden is gone, or, as her new name is Mona, to the East, a place that had flourished hundreds of years ago, but had turned into a swamp of water in the "Dark Years".

There, there will be a will and a mission given to her by her father.

Either die there and become a dry skeleton in a swamp, or turn it under her rule and become the king of the East.

This is the price she chose to refuse the blood of the great serpent Jörmungard, in exchange for the great snake to give her a name, the great snake will not give too much favor and kindness to mortals, no matter how difficult it is, it is also her own choice, even if it turns into dry bones, it can only prove that she is not capable at best.

When she left, she took only the pure gold snake statue with her, leaving behind a thatched hut that was gradually desolate.

After a long time, the legend of the witch faded into oblivion, and only a few old people remembered the story of the witch and recited what they had asked the witch for revelation, but the young people had long since turned their noses up at the non-existent witch.

At this moment, a man in armor and depressed will quietly came here.

Looking at this place where there was no trace of the thatched hut long gone, this place where he had been when he was a child, he was stunned.

After all, he still couldn't escape that future.

He slain dragons, fought lions, and performed all sorts of feats, and was treated as a warrior by the world, with wealth, fame, glory, family, everything, and gradually forgetting the prophecy of his childhood, and during a hunt he drew his bow and shot a pregnant doe.

However, what he never expected was that the forest fairy was transformed, and the injured fairy fled in embarrassment, and at the same time, she angrily cursed him.

"Whatever rejoices in you will be lost, and whatever afflicts you will come!"

In an instant, everything was in vain, his family was torn apart, his wealth was stolen, his glory was discredited, his brother drew the sword of betrayal against him, his wife left him, and his children died......

All kinds of sudden bad luck almost broke him, and it was only then that he suddenly thought of this witch who had prophesied to him when he was a child.

I came with the last glimmer of hope, but I was shocked to find that this place had long since turned into desolation.

"Could it be...... I really can't get out of this fate? ”

The stunned man was dazed.

Until then, all of a sudden, he noticed that something seemed to be glowing in a barren ruin, and when he looked closer, there was a reflective copper sheet in the grass, and he tried to dig it out, but found that it was getting bigger and bigger, and finally ......

A small wooden box that seemed to have been dusty for a long time was dug up.

The copper plate was the lock on the wooden chest, and though it was rotten, it was too strong to be opened, but it did not deter the brave warrior of great fame, and he slashed with his sword, and the copper lock broke with the sound of his sword.

In the wooden box, there was only an old piece of parchment, on which was written a sentence that had been dried for a long time......

"Oriental. ”

The sentences are extremely short.

"Oriental?"

The man then looked to the far east and muttered, his eyes thoughtful......

(Lallaier is really just used to set the mood, not Cthulhu in the Nordic world, don't think about it.) )
