After getting the true essence of mana from the creepy Vanir gods, I had completed one more step towards getting my weapon, and now… there was nothing left but to get the last two fucking ingredients, and well, I suppose I was about to see how fucked I was soon enough, "Do you know where to find Fenrir?" I asked Thor, if my Norse lore knowledge was anything to go by, the big wolf was the easiest for me right now, being bound to a cave, unable to move until the darkest day arrived, made it easier for me to get what I needed. One of his fangs
"I do," Thor nodded grimly, "Niflheim,"
Niflheim or the mist world, was known as the darkest and coldest region of all the realms according to Norse mythology, and apparently it was the world selected to be the prison for Fenrir, "Alright, let's go," I sighed.
I was not going to lie, or fool myself, I was deep down scared of the two following tasks I had to complete to get my weapon, facing the two greatest monsters in Norse mythology even if I was playing my moves smartly, was terrifying.
"How do you want to do this?" Thor inquired, breaking me out of my long reviere.
"Well, no idea except I don't want to fight them," I chuckled.
"Fair enough," Thor nodded, with that I teleported us back to Asgard, where we would use the Bifrost to go to Niflheim.
—————————————————————————————————-
With the help of Heimdall, we arrived to Niflheim with no complications, and boy was this fucking realm cold, holy shit, even as a God here I was shivering in cold, "Holy… c-c-c-rap," I muttered.
"I-I k-new… there… was a reason I hated this realm," Thor cursed.
"So… wh-where the f-uck.. is that wolf," I asked Thor.
"Just… f-follow the r-r-river!" Thor pointed to the river nearby where we were, "Th-that's his s-saliva,"
"D-d-disgusting," But mythologically accurate, in Norse lore it was known as the river of expectation, but still… ew.
I guess it's time to follow the spit version of the Niagara Falls, so that I can give the big demonic doggo the dental care he so desperately needs. With nothing else to do but follow the disgusting trail back to Fenrir, we started walking and as we followed the Drool River up, deeper into fucking mist/ice tundra realm, I started to feel more and more as the atmosphere started to thicken, it didn't take me long to figure out it what it was.
Fenrir, I was feeling his overwhelming presence, and it kinda reminded me of Sun Wukong, but it was more feral, and vastly more suffocating, "I think we are close to the beast," I chuckled.
"Yep," Thor nodded, "I can feel the big asshole nearby," he stated, holding his hammer tight, "We should find him soon enough," he pointed back to the Drool River
"Ew," I chuckled.
"Ew indeed," Thor chuckled.
We continued following the River, to where it naturally began, finding ourselves in the entrance of a very damp cave, from the inside a powerful growl followed by a howl could be heard, shaking the very foundation of the cave from within.
"Here it is," Thor stated.
"Here goes nothing," I breathed out, entering the cave, with each step weighing me down, as if I was getting an extra ton to carry with every inch I advanced. The cave was like nothing I have ever seen before, it literally had an entire ecosystem inside, which mountains and forests inside.
I continued on my path until I eventually stopped walking, feeling as if the air itself had stiffened, finding myself face to face with the Father of Wolves, Fenrir, "Greek…." The Godly Demonic wolf struggled to say, as he eyed me with curiosity, moving as much as the bindings around him allowed him to move.
I have seen big creatures, and then there was Fenrir, he was easily the biggest being I had ever seen face to face, towering over all creatures, even above the Titans themselves, no wonder he was destined to kill Odin, the bastard was massive, and his power was massive as well… but this brought some terrifying points that I would have to investigate later, like the fact in the Riordan books… Fenrir was small, and it was nothing like the beast I was seeing right now.
"Get your fang," Thor whispered.
"I might be bound… but I still can kill you… boy," Fenrir growled, the sword keeping his mouth open moving a bit.
"I would appreciate if you didn't," I replied, wondering how in the fuck was I supposed to take one of his fangs out, when a single fang was like ten feet tall.
"We don't need your approval, beast," Thor hissed in anger, lighting coming out his body, breaking the ground where he was standing. And I think this is the first time I have seen Thor angry.
"Still mad at me?" Fenrir growled, "How is your brother… Tyr was it? Is he still missing his arm?" And then I realized, this motherfucker was trying to get Thor angry, on purpose… but why?
"I will slay you where you stand!" Thor growled, jumping at the beast only to be stopped by a barrier I created the moment I realized Fenrir was trying to rile Thor up.
"Drop the barrier!" Thor demanded, glaring at me.
"He is trying to manipulate you," I pointed out, "I don't know much of the seal keeping him in place but I am sure attacking him is something is not something we want to do if he wants that," I glared at the wolf, "I bet it would weaken the seal somehow,"
"I will eat you alive," Fenrir growled, thrashing around trying to reach me in anger, showing I had struck gold with my point.
"I see," Thor smirked, looking at the beast with a cocky smile, "Sorry, but I will not be walking you out today,"
I snorted at his doggo joke, "So any ideas how to get one of his fangs out?" I inquired, I was at lost here.
"Cavities?" Thor shrugged.
"A good start but no," I chuckled.
