"Beowulf?"
Soi Fon silently wrote down this name.
Although it is not clear at the moment, what is the connection with the whole thing.
But the intuition of being in Onmitsukidō all year round tells her that the and the Beowulf mentioned in the mouth of Axel, this ancient legend may be hidden, and the truth of what they want to pursue!
After Wiglaf finished speaking, he turned and walked into the tower.
Leaving Axel alone, holding a cane, he looked up at the sea and looked deeply at the mound. His eyes revealed an indescribable feeling, as if he was mourning.
After a long time, the old man of Axel was holding a cane. His originally hunched back was straight like an unsheathed sword. His turbid eyes were full of determination and murderous intent. He walked back to the town with heavy steps.
At this moment, Soi Fon could clearly feel it.
In the salty sea breeze, there seemed to be a murderous aura brewing.
Since the intelligence has been investigated, Soi Fon, in order to avoid being discovered, took a step first, returned to the house, and reported this important news to Lod and others.
Lil' Shiro naturally does not have to say much, and like Soi Fon, he does not understand these foreign myths at all, looking at others with a blank face.
Valkyrie is not much better. They used to only be responsible for fighting and killing. Where do they have the time to understand Earth's myths, especially a human story, so they do not know the story of Beowulf.
Ulquiorra skipped it directly.
Only Lod remembered some things about Beowulf. After organizing his thoughts, he told everyone.
The hero, Beowulf.
It was an ancient poem that described the heroic deeds of the hero of Navia.
Most of the people who were familiar with history knew this story. It was the Song of Roland in France, the Song of Nibelungen in Germany, and it was also known as the three great hero poems in European literature.
Beowulf in the narrative poem came from Sweden. In the end, he completed the epic feat and could be called a hero in Denmark. He once led 14 warriors to eliminate the two monsters that harmed Denmark with brute force and wisdom. Then, decades later, he fought a greedy fire dragon and died together with it.
At this point, the story of the hero Beowulf came to an end.
It was rumored that one of the warriors who followed Beowulf inherited his armor and sword and became the hero of the new generation.
"That's all. What do you want to say?"
Lod rubbed his temples. At most, he remembered this.
This was the impression left by watching a movie when he was in primary school in the previous world. Now, he had already forgotten what the other two monsters that Beowulf was fighting were.
"In the conversation between Wiglaf and Axel, they mentioned that they wanted to inherit the will of their ancestors and win and seal it again." Ulquiorra's eyes moved slightly and said indifferently: "So the appearance of Aurora is likely to warn us, one of the three monsters in the legend of Beowulf, or all."
"Yes, it should be like that."
Soi Fon nodded to agree, and then said: "Moreover, they claim to be the descendants of Beowulf. Combined with the fact that this small town has been closed all year round, it is very likely that they are guarding the monster's seal."
Hearing this, Lod pondered for a moment and said, "It is indeed very possible."
Yallweite frowned and asked, "But the timeline doesn't match. Beowulf's legend is only about a thousand years old, but the time that Valkyrie disappeared should be at least ten thousand years ago."
This is a problem...
The time that the original Valkyrie disappeared should have been at least ten thousand years ago. Otherwise, it was impossible for Arbeit and the others not to know.
However, Beowulf's legend only lasted a thousand years.
Then how did the Aurora of the Valkyrie and the legend of Beowulf form a connection?
While everyone was deep in thought, the old man, Axel, finally returned. As soon as he entered, he ignored the people sitting around the fireplace and shouted upstairs, "Jens, come down quickly."
Thump thump thump thump...
When Jens heard his grandfather's call, he hurriedly ran down the stairs. When he saw the old man's solemn expression, he couldn't help but scratch his head curiously and ask, "What's wrong, grandfather?"
Axel didn't say anything and just waved his hand to signal Jens to come over.
Although Jens was puzzled, he obediently walked over and stared with a pair of big eyes full of curiosity and confusion.
Axel held Jens's hand and walked in front of Lod and the others. After a few seconds of silence, he made a move that was beyond everyone's expectations.
Dong!
The rotten wooden board made a loud noise and the old man, who was holding Jens, knelt in front of everyone.
This sudden action was beyond everyone's expectations.
Lod was slightly dazed for a moment. He got up and wanted to help the old man and the child up, but Axel did not appreciate it at all. He firmly knelt on the ground and refused to get up. His muddy old eyes were filled with expectation and begging.
"Mr. Axel, if you have something to say, you can get up first." Lod's eyelids twitched. Generally, the movie would develop according to this kind of plot. Next, it was time to rely on me.
As expected, the old man of Axel had a sad expression. "Mr. Lod, I want to ask you to take Jens away with you."
"Grandfather"
Jens's face changed, shocked by the sudden words.
However, the old man ignored him and just stared straight at Lod, his voice carrying a hint of pleading, "I don't ask you to take care of Jens. I only ask you to take him away from here. As long as he doesn't stay here, no matter where he goes, it's fine!"
"I can agree to your request."
Lod forcefully helped the old man up with one hand and said, "But you need to tell us the reason. Why are you in a hurry to send Jens to other places?"
Acker's expression changed slightly. "I'm sorry. The reason... I can't tell you."
"Is it Beowulf? Or Aurora?"
At this point, Lod did not intend to hide it anymore. He simply laid out his cards and said, "No matter what the reason is, if you want to send Jens out of here, I can do it for you. However, the premise is that I want to know the reason."
The old man of Iksa trembled and his face trembled. He subconsciously took a few steps back. "You... Who are you?"
Lod gave the Valkyrie a look, and the latter nodded to express his understanding.
Yallweite took a step forward, her body transformed into silver armor. She wore a holy helmet with wings, and a blood red battle robe fluttered behind her. She held a silver gorgeous sword in her hands, and her entire body emitted a god-like radiance.
The other Valkyries all transformed into divine armor. Under the God of Light Baldur's gift, it was as if the light of hope had pierced through the darkness, sprinkling a warm and gentle light, exuding a heroic and valiant aura.
Axel and Jens were almost stunned.
"We are Valkyries."
Yallweite raised the sword in her hand and announced, "Aurora is the light of when we cross the sky. We grant the enemy death on the battlefield and send a wonderful song to the brave warriors who died in battle."
But unexpectedly...
After a moment of shock, Axel burst into tears.
"You... are finally here!"
Like a child, Axel sat on the ground and cried. His voice was filled with indescribable sadness and endless pain. "We... We have waited for you... for twelve hundred years!"
