Chapter 1021 The arrangement of fate?
Jotunheim, the country of giants, not only has the highest mountain in the Nine Realms, but also the largest territory in the entire Nine Realms! Ashes who walked through the portal looked at the vast mountains in front of him and couldn't help but take a deep breath...
"What a beautiful view! No wonder your mother wanted to be buried here!"
"Yeah...it's really beautiful!"
Appreciating the beautiful scenery in front of him, Hui Jin couldn't help but feel much better. He couldn't help but turn his head and smiled at Kratos and said, "Brother, why don't you come and take a look? This is the final stop of your journey! I won't publish it.
Any thoughts?"
Kratos glanced at the ashes, walked slowly to the edge of the towering ridge, stretched out his hand and slowly took off the armor he was wearing, and then began to remove it bit by bit and stretched it on his wrist, which was dirty and dirty.
bandage…
The forearms under the bandage were exposed. They were a pair of strong arms, but each arm was covered with red marks, like scars caused by red-hot iron ropes wrapped around them.
Combined with the way Kratos uses the pair of swords carried on his back, it is not difficult to imagine where these scars came from...
Atreus took a deep look at his father's arm, and his nose suddenly became sore... But he has learned what to ask and what not to ask... He will not open his father's scars again to ask meaningless questions.
!
After all, his father had taken off the bandage hiding the scar at this moment, looking at the mountains in the distance, his face full of calm and relief, there was no need to talk anymore...
Taking a deep breath, Kratos lowered his open arms, turned his head and looked at his son and said lightly, "Keep going! There is only a little way left!"
On the bridge leading to the highest mountain, Atreus curiously looked at Ashes walking beside him and asked, "So...is there a Valkyrie here?"
Ashes took out the helmet he got from the two Valkyries from his backpack. After looking at it, he gently shook his head and said, "Unfortunately, there are no Valkyries here, but it's nice to see such beautiful scenery."
It’s a worthwhile trip!”
"Of course, little brother Ashes, it is impossible for the Valkyrie to exist in Jotunheim. If Odin could hide the Valkyrie in Jotunheim, he wouldn't have to painstakingly find a way to get to Jotunheim.
Already~"
Hearing Mimir's words, Atreus raised his eyebrows slightly and asked curiously, "So...Odin's goal is Jotunheim? He has been sending people to chase us just to find Jotunheim?"
"
"That's right, and judging from the results...his actions are very accurate. You can indeed find the path to Jotunheim...and you can indeed open it!"
Kratos, who was leading the way, turned his head and said calmly, "What he wants to do is his business. We only need to focus on the things in front of us!"
After crossing the bridge in front of them, which was either in disrepair or dilapidated, the group finally came to the final point, the highest mountain in the Nine Realms!
There are many huge giants carved on the cliff in front of you. These stone statues are holding up the mountains in front of you, and they seem to be guiding everyone...
The door in front of the mountain was already wide open, as if waiting for someone. Looking at the countless statues and a lot of incomprehensible words in the cave, Atreus looked at the empty cave and couldn't help but shout.
Shouting "Hello~ Is there anyone there? Where are the giants?"
Yes... there is nothing but these in the cave, no monsters, no enemies, and no... giants.
Ashes, who followed closely behind, sighed and waved his hands helplessly and said, "No need to shout, there is no one here except us, but this is a bit strange...it doesn't mean that the giants have disappeared. Dunheim? But...why is there not one? Not to mention this mountain, I didn’t even find any trace of souls in the entire Jotunheim! Where did the giants go?"
As he spoke, Hui Jin cast his doubtful gaze on Mimir, but the answer he got was of course that he didn't know... If you want to ask who knows, then it is probably only the disappeared giants and the one who is also missing. Till it!
"It was Odin and Thor, they ruined everything..." Atreus didn't know what kind of information he got from the writing on the rock wall, and shook his head with some melancholy.
Looking at the surrounding rock walls, Atreus stretched out his hand out of nowhere and gently touched the rough mountain wall...
A beam of golden light bloomed from the place where Atreus stretched out his hand and touched the rock wall! The rough rock wall began to collapse and collapsed downward, revealing what was hidden behind, a delicate mural!
The first person to bear the brunt was a woman holding an ax, standing in front of a group of giants.
Atreus rubbed his eyes and looked at the mural in disbelief. "Look! This is the Ax of Leviathan, your axe, so... this is the mother? What is she talking to the giants? She... knows giant?"
While he was talking, the surrounding rock walls fell off, exposing the banner mural! Atreus hurriedly ran over, looked at the mural in front of him, looked at the things on the mural, and said with a look of shock. "Look! It's us... above this! This is what happened to us, the cremation of the mother... the light of the world... the serpent of the world... the thunder dragon... the mason... what's written on it is our story!"
Kratos stared at these murals expressionlessly, then slowly lowered his head and looked at Atreus and said word by word, "No... this is not our story, this is your story!"
"But... what does this mean? What does this mean?"
Looking at the confused Atreus, Kratos took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "This means I am not the only one hiding secrets..."
"You don't know either..." Atreus said softly while looking at the stone sculptures in front of him, "My mother is a giant...I am also a giant! Why doesn't she tell us this?"
Ashes, who was also looking at these rock walls, suddenly turned his head, looked at Ashes and said seriously, "Because this is the so-called fate, kid... If she had told you in advance, would these things still happen? Destiny~ It's really interesting. What I discovered was really eye-opening!”
Kratos glanced at Ashes who looked disdainful, took a deep breath, looked at Atreus and said lightly, "She asked us to come here, knowing that we would find these, your mother must have her reason…"
Hearing this, Atreus nodded deeply, looked at his father and said seriously, "If she has any arrangements for us, then I believe her, and I am willing to accept it, no matter what she arranges, after all …So far, she hasn’t made any mistakes!”
Suddenly, Mimir, who was hung on Kratos's waist, said seriously, "No, no, no... My child, everything is different! Everything is completely different from the fables of these giants on the rock wall!"
Atreus glanced at Mimir in confusion and asked in surprise, "It's different? Where is it different? Why didn't I see it?"
Mimir suddenly turned his gaze to Ashes, looked at Ashes seriously and said, "Because of him!"
"because of him?"
"because I?"
Atreus looked at Ashes in confusion, Ashes pointed at himself in confusion, and Mimir blinked seriously, "Yes! Because of Ashes' little brother, he changed everything! Because you are leading the way along the way.
, Ashes didn’t interfere too much with you, so it didn’t deviate too much, but... there are still differences! Little brother, lift me up and let me take a closer look at this mural!"
Kratos frowned slightly, then took it off and held it in his hand, allowing him to observe the mural carefully...
"Look here! What is shown here is... little brothers, you met Badr on the top of the mountain. According to the fable, you destroyed the stone door through which we came in! But there was no... The stone door was intact and we came in! Look here again...
This is where you two, father and son, defeated Baldr. Look, he is dead, and according to the order, this should be before you enter Jotunheim, but we have already entered and he is still alive... But this is not the key!
The most critical point, haven’t you noticed? There is no trace of ashes in this mural!”
Hearing this, Atreus couldn't help being startled. He quickly turned his head and observed the mural carefully. Just as Mimir said, there was no trace of his ashes on the entire mural, except for him.
More or less people appear!
Mimir...Freya...Badr...even the blacksmith brothers all appeared, but Ashes didn't appear on any of the murals!
Not only Ashes, but also the things he did, and the Nite who made a deal with Ashes, their figures have never appeared, which means... they are people outside this destiny, and their intervention is indeed
This makes reality and fable deviate!
After confirming this, Atreus turned his head with an ugly expression, looked at Ashes and said in disbelief, "You... ruined our destiny? You ruined the destiny that our mother arranged for us? You..."
Before Atreus could finish speaking, Ashes suddenly laughed, raised his chin at Atreus and said, "I think your mother is showing all this to you at this time just to make you
Trying to find a way to destroy this fate! So...you should thank me for this~"
Atreus frowned. It had to do with his mother, so what if it was ashes? "Why do you say that?"
Ashes didn't reply. He just raised his chin and said toward the edge of the mural, a place covered by a piece of cloth hanging on the rock wall, "The reason is there. If you regard this as your destiny and are willing to succumb to it,
