Chapter 63 - Chapter 63: The Rise of a New World

*Aphrodite and Shun's surprised faces are shown*

Aphrodite: It can't be true...

Shun: Did you mean it? We're not playing

Isaac: Yes, I mean it. I'm willing to face the consequences

Shun: If everything you've said is true, we'll have to put you in jail

Isaac: Yes, I know. I'll help by saying everything I know

*Shun creates chains and imprisons Isaac*

Shun: Even though you've decided to turn yourself in, I can't let you be free, so you'll be here for the moment

Isaac: Got it

Aphrodite: I still can't believe I was able to do all that

Shun: It's hard to take in, but I wouldn't be surprised by what he said about Loki, that guy was capable of anything to get what he wanted

Aphrodite: Yes...

Shun: Now we just have to wait until the reinforcements arrive and we can get out of here

Aphrodite: Yes

Elsif: Are you Shun?

Shun: Yes, what happens?

Shun: *think* An elf? I understood that there were no longer any of them alive, at least here

Elsif: I understand that you know how to read runes, so I have this for you

*Elsif shows him the stone that Loki gave him*

Elsif: I hope you can figure it out*

Shun: That's...

*Back to the present*

Aphrodite: After several days trying to decipher what he was saying, Shun completely understood everything and when the fire faded thanks to the rain that there was, we all went to the trunk of Yggdrasil, or at least what was left of it

*Nai, Shu, Aphrodite, and Elsif are shown looking at the trunk*

Aphrodite: Why did you bring us here?

Nai: I care about what I'm doing here

Shun: Shut up. I have to think

Aphrodite: Yes, yes, whatever Mr. Wisdom says

Elsif: *Think while smiling* Is this really the great guy you were talking about, Loki? I only see a big fool

Nai: Is someone going to answer my question?

Aphrodite: Silence, little boy

Nai: Yes, yes

Shun: *Snaps your fingers* Now I got it

Aphrodite: What do you mean?

*Shun approaches the trunk and stands on it*

Aphrodite: What do you intend to do?

*Shun hits the trunk with great force and breaks it into pieces*

*Everyone's surprised face is shown*

Elsif: *Think* What an impressive force and didn't use any energy.

Aphrodite: What do you think you're doing?!

*A large gap under the trunk is shown*

Shun: Lucky you, it looks like I got it right *Smiles*

Aphrodite: Damned idiot

Shun: So, are they coming?

*Everyone enters through the gap and begins to descend*

*After several minutes they reach the end and a cave full of flowers and vegetation is shown next to two large wooden coffins*

Elsif: What's that?

Shun: The Future of Humanity

Aphrodite: The future? What do you mean?

Shun: It seems that Odin was aware that a catastrophe on this scale could happen. And in case humanity was eliminated, he had these two readies

Aphrodite: Did you already know? That's impossible. If he knew, why didn't he do anything?

Shun: He did, but it seems that he took the wrong path and what he thought was the right thing to do, he didn't

Elsif: *Think* Was he really just trying to avoid this? I don't think that's the case

Aphrodite: Well, and how do we free them?

Shun: Here comes your role Thunder Boy

Nai: Thunder boy, me?

Shun: Yes, Do you see anyone else using lightning here?

Nai: I guess not. What should I do?

*Shun makes a small cut on Nai's hand*

Nai: That hurts! What do you think you do?!

Shun: Don't worry, it's necessary. The rune said that only someone with Odin's blood could and if I'm not mistaken you are the only descendant of him

Nai: There are still more idiots alive!

Shun: Oh, it's true, I forgot. Sorry *Smiles*

*Everyone is surprised by Shun's idiocy*

Shun: Well, you just place your hand on both graves

Nai: Okay

*Nai places her hand on both graves, which begin to release a great glow and a chain is shown breaking*

Shun: It looks like we've done it

*Two humans are shown coming out of the graves without clothes*

*Back to the present*

Aphrodite: At that time, we met Lif and Lifthrosir the last creations of Odin

Eden: I see. So, a lot happened since I became unconscious

Aphrodite: Yes, that's right

Eden: Can I talk to Isaac?

Aphrodite: Yes, I think he'll be happy to talk to you

Shu: Eden!

*Shu throws himself on Eden and embraces him*

Shu: Good thing you're a real idiot, we were worried about you

Eden: That hurts!

Shu: I'm sorry

Eden: Can you take me to Isaac? I don't think I can walk easily

Shu: Okay, okay

*Shu takes Eden on his arm*

Shu: I still can't believe everything they've said about Isaac

Eden: Already... It's hard to believe. But is he really the bad guy?

Shu: What do you mean?

Eden: It's nothing...

*Eden touches his pocket and remembers that thing Loki gave him*

Eden: *Think* This is...

*Flashback*

*Loki approaches Eden and puts something in his pocket*

Loki: Good luck baby god

*Back to the present*

*Eden pulls a necklace out of his pocket*

Eden: *Think* Why did you give me this?

*Eden opens the necklace and sees something inside it*

Eden: It can't be true...

Shu: What's going on?

Eden: It's nothing, don't worry

Shu: Okay. Well, we've arrived

Eden: Please leave us alone for a moment

Shu: yes...

*Shu leaves and Eden sits watching Isaac*

Isaac: How long haven't seen each other demon, I'm glad you're okay

Edén: Isaac...

Isaac: Well, what are you doing here? Are you coming to reproach me for what I did? Go ahead and do it

Eden: You're wrong

Isaac: Am I wrong? What do you mean?

Eden: I don't come to judge you, I'm not the one to do it. Besides, we are not so different. You would destroy the world for your sister if necessary. I'm doing the same for my grandfather

Isaac: Grandpa? What are you talking about? And besides, why do you know about my sister?

Eden: I'll tell you

*Eden tells his past to Isaac and he is very affected and surprised*

Isaac: I don't... I had no idea

Eden: Don't worry, no one knows about this. You're the first person I've talked about it. By the way, I have something that might make you happy

*Eden throws the necklace to Isaac*

Isaac: A necklace? What do you expect me to do with this?

Eden: Your duty is to guess. It was a pleasure to talk to you, I hope to see you soon my friend

*Eden gets up and limps away*

Isaac: Idiot.

*Shun is shown listening to everything from a corner*

Shun: *Think* I don't seem to have to worry about

Isaac: This is...

*An image of Isaac's family next to Loki is shown with a message: I'm sorry you had to go through all this kid, I'm really sorry, but your family is fine, when you can, go see them, I'm sure they miss Att: Loki*

Isaac: *With tears in his eyes* Damn wretch...
