355. Resurrection
Herwin scooped a mouthful of mashed potatoes with a wooden spoon:
"Enid?"
Hola nodded:
"Peloris said that Enid was going to have a birthday party, and she wanted me to accompany her. β
Hervin says:
"It's been a long time since I've seen Enid, so I'm taking this opportunity to visit her. β
Hara asked:
"Did Enid invite you?"
Hervin picked up the newspaper beside him:
"She didn't know I was coming. β
Hola said curiously:
"Hewen, didn't you tell her about your coming?"
Hervin spread out the newspaper:
"I've been a bit busy lately, a lot of things have happened all of a sudden, and I haven't reacted to it. β
Hola raised her little face and asked:
"Is there anything I can do to help?"
Hewen smiled:
"It's good for Hola to study hard, and I'll worry about these things when you're older. β
Hola said with a serious face:
"I can grow up all at once. β
Herwin picked up the newspaper and patted Hara's head, and the girl immediately stretched out her hands to hold her head, pretending to be in pain, pouting, and looking at Herwin pitifully.
Hervin says:
"I'm talking about mental age, people have to go through something to grow, even if you can become an adult all at once, but as long as your soul is a child, you will always be a child. β
Hola withdrew her hands, kicked her little feet and said:
"Can Hewen tell me what you're up to?"
Hervin spread the newspaper back on, looking at it with news about George and the Church of the First Fire:
"This has something to do with Enid, do you remember the death of a king when we were in Wharton? β
Hola says:
"Yes. β
Hervin says:
"He was killed by Valkyrie, the Valkyrie who guided the Heroic Spirits, the daughter of Odin, the Hound of the battlefield, and one of the nine leaders of the Valkyries, the betrayer Sigedlifa.
"She once betrayed Odin, the father of the gods, and joined the hands of another god, Loki. β
Hola raised her little hand:
"Didn't you say Loki was Odin's brother?"
Hervin says:
"They were brothers until they betrayed each other, and together they led to the fall of the godsβthe arrival of Ragnarok.
"Odin's son, Badr, the god of light, died through the piercing of the spear forged by the parasitism, and after dying at the wrath of Hoddle, the god of darkness, the world lost its light, spring, and sun.
"What is left behind is an eternal winter, and countless betrayals. β
Hervin says:
"I don't know if Sigdelifa actually betrayed Odin, or if she betrayed her twice, so I don't know what she was trying to do.
"But I can probably guess that the problem with her wanting to resurrect her allegiance is......
"Which one?"
Hara asked:
"Who's the good guy?"
Hervin replied:
"Neither.
"Odin had gradually lost his mind in his old age, and fate had completely changed him, and he was no longer a wise god-king, but a mad god.
"If it is Odin who Higedrifa wants to resurrect, then he will most likely have to continue his unfinished work and perpetuate Asgard on earth.
"The price may well be everything.
"If Higdalifa wants to resurrect Odin, I must do everything in my power to stop her, otherwise no one in the whole world will be able to stop him, the last time he almost destroyed all the other races for the sake of Asgard, this time I don't know if he will do it again. β
Herwen's expression was extremely solemn:
"Hora, if Higdelifa really wants to resurrect Odin, and I fail, and Odin returns to the world, I want you to give me a promise. β
Hara didn't answer.
Hervin says:
"Hide, if Odin just wants to rule all races, you have to find a place to hide, the whole world will have a very long war of resistance, and you must not join any force.
"And if Odin wants to slaughter all the other races, then join Asgard, disguise himself as the Aesir gods, and then forget the past and live like this. β
Hola shut her mouth tightly.
Hewen asked gently:
"Haura, can you promise me?"
Hara didn't answer.
Hervin smiled:
"No matter what happens, I'll be fine, but you may not see me for a long time, as long as you live well, one day I'll meet again. β
Hora finally nodded.
Herwin blinked.
It was the first time she had lied to herself.
Hara asked:
"And what if Sigdelifa isn't the one who wants to resurrect Odin?"
Hervin says:
"Actually, I think it's more likely, that is, it is Loki who she wants to resurrect.
"The evil god Loki is cruel, mad, cunning, and no less powerful.
"He's not a good guy either, he's a prankster, and he'll never get away with lying, but if you compare it to Odin, he's a hero.
"And I don't need to worry about Loki's resurrection, because Higdalifa can't resurrect Loki at all. β
Hola said curiously:
"Why?"
Hervin says:
"Because Loki is not dead, he is hiding somewhere in this world, hatching an evil plot about how to restore his power. β
Hara asked:
"Hewen, how do you know? β
Hervin blinked his right eye:
"I've seen him, and if Sigedlifa were trying to resurrect Loki, it would be a fun prank.
"You said she once took a shapeshifter, and then when she reappeared, she took Fenrir's descendants.
"If you look at it according to normal people's ideas, both the shapeshifter and Fenrir itself have something to do with Loki, Loki himself is very good at shapeshifting, and he is also Fenrir's father.
But that's where it's strange that Sigdelifa didn't choose a descendant of JΓΆrmungad, or something related to the goddess of death, to use as props for the resurrection ritual.
"You must know that Fenrir is destined to kill Odin's demon wolf in the prophecy, and Odin himself has the title of the god of a thousand faces, and his transformation ability is no worse than Loki.
"I suspect that Sigedlifa is trying to resurrect Odin quietly in the name of resurrecting Loki.
"Although many people in those days thought that Higadrifa trusted Loki and that she was extremely loyal to Loki, I still couldn't trust her 100% because she was a betrayal. β
Hola says:
"Herwen, have you seen Loki and Odin before, I mean a long time ago. β
Hewen nodded:
"Well, before I became a witcher, before I fell into the world, I drank wine with the gods.
"I was in heaven too. β
