The monster went straight to where Björn is, with all its might and full of anger. His claws tear the floor from the force he uses to propel himself. The beast is determined to get this over with. Björn without thinking twice took advantage of the speed with which the beast is coming to use it against him, he attacked the beast head-on with his ax, gave a clean and forceful blow from top to bottom straight to its head. This time he did break the hard skin of him but did not break the skull of the beast. The ax was wedged into his head causing continuous bleeding. Björn despite not making an attack as effective as he wanted, did not despair since that wound would help him in his next attack. Maybe if he attacks again in the same place he could fit the ax further and kill the beast.
The reptile became even more enraged, a fury so great that it only thought of devouring Björn, the beast shakes its head vigorously and carelessly steps on Björn's body with its huge and heavy paw, the young warrior was stamped on On the hard ground with the giant reptile's paw on his chest, Björn was already beginning to feel the weight of death.
Suddenly a loud and hoarse voice begins to be heard that is scary and makes the whole place rumble, it seems to be from a woman but Björn does not know where this voice comes from until he discovered that it is the monster that is speaking to him. He said words that penetrated his soul and filled him with fear because he had never heard a beast speak.
"I certainly expected more from you, but you were only a disappointment as a warrior and as a food." - Said the beast angrily as steam came out of its mouth.
Björn felt the hot breath coming from the huge monster's throat as he spoke. He thought that if he talked to the monster and used the right words it would not kill him.
"W-why are you doing this?" Björn asked how he could because having the huge leg of that animal on his chest made it difficult for him to speak.
"I do it because they tell me to, it's nothing personal." I also like to have fun with my prey before eating them. ”The reptile answered as he passed his tongue over his lips.
Björn wants to persuade the monster not to eat it or maybe he is just delaying the inevitable.
"Do you like being used as a puppet !? Because that is what you are. - Björn shouted trying to make the beast doubt.
"Yes…" He answered curtly and directly.
Björn is shocked since he is talking to a monster, it is something that he never thought he would do, but he has also discovered that nothing he says will change the situation, since the monster is determined to finish him off. The strange little conversation they had ended, the monster opens the bit and prepares to eat Björn's head. You could see everything that is inside his mouth, the huge teeth, his forked tongue, the internal color of his mouth, the steam that came out of it, and the darkness that is at the beginning of his throat, it is something that hypnotizes the see him. The giant animal was slowly approaching its mouth to Björn's head, he could already taste the victory, but the beast was very confident when it brought its head close enough to Björn, he took his ax and plunged it back into the head of the monster to feel pain and raise its paw.
The plan worked perfectly, the giant animal lifted its leg and Björn managed to lift it from the cold ground. The monster began to recoil from the pain it feels. Björn has little strength in his body, he can barely keep the ax in his hand and stand, he is conscious of his will of steel and because his enormous Viking spirit does not allow him to give up, he already has difficulty breathing due to excessive fatigue. , his vision is blurred for small moments, his vision comes and goes, he could faint at any moment, he is about to lose the battle ... Björn is at his greatest point of weakness, but suddenly he feels that he still has something to give, He still feels that he has a chance to win, although everything points against him, he will never give up. He took courage and courage, he began to run with all his might, with the brutality and speed of a Viking, he reached the location where his other boot is and also took his shield, put it on the forearm of the only arm that remains. He made sure not to lose it again and as if his life depended on that.
He took his boot and threw it again but this time behind himself making the beast believe that he was fleeing, but nevertheless, the monster ran straight towards the enraged, the beast no longer fell into his traps he knew he would not do that. What he didn't think was that this time Björn would be more cunning. In the blink of an eye, Björn pulled away causing the monster to follow the path towards the boot behind him.
Björn used his wits, but the shield on the ground and started hitting it with his ax to confuse the beast. The monster turns Confused, however, thanks to his other senses he was able to find it easily. Björn doesn't want to run away, she just wants to throw him off guard.
He took the shield back from him, as with one swift movement he threw the shield at the beast's face. He ran towards him and once again struck a blow with all his might into the monster's already open wound, the wound left open deeply. Björn was over his head as the beast flailed fiercely, the warrior making every effort to stay steady and not fall. He took out the ax and prepared to drive it once more with the last remaining strength in the head of the giant animal. He cunningly swung the entire weight of his body with the ax and delivered an immense thunderous downward blow to the beast, so hard it made Björn's body tremble.
According to Björn, the horrible beast is already dead. Björn feels good, because he feels that he has won, however that monster started to laugh and said.
—After so much the only thing you managed to do is a small scratch on my head, as you will realize I am very resistant.
In the end, the beast struck his head, sending Björn flying with his ax through the air. This impact the hard ground and he lost consciousness.
What will happen to me now? I can't die in such a sad way ... Odin still doesn't send your Valkyries for me. Young Björn thought hopefully before he was knocked unconscious.
The monster, seeing that the young warrior is unconscious, ran towards him eager to eat him. Just as the great animal was in front of him ready to take his life from him, a click sounded, the same click the sorcerer used to bring him to that test.
Björn still unconscious was healed, the sorcerer managed to recover his arm and returned his energy. When he opened his eyes he saw the figure of the sorcerer a few meters from him. Despite the fact that the sorcerer's face cannot be seen, he felt the disappointment that he had.
—Björn expected much more from you ... Maybe you are not in the conditions I expect, you still have a long way to go before you will be the great warrior you were again and when you become a great Viking again you will have to improve much more so that you become a person worthy of being called a hero… - The sorcerer snapped his fingers again when he finished speaking.
Björn after hearing that fell into a deep and heavy sleep. It is morning, the soft rays of light enter through the window, the light caresses the walls of the hut where the young Viking is. A mysterious cabin which is unknown where he is, however, Björn finds himself resting deeply in it.
Björn thought that he would never wake up from that deep and at the same time so pleasant sleep, when he got up he gave a slight laugh of happiness and amazement when he realized that he is still alive. He had such a pleasant rest that I fill him with energy, he is fully replenished. Björn wondered why he felt so comfortable, as he noticed that the coverlet on the bed is filled with peacock feathers and is made of a soft silk fabric just like the pillow. Björn also noticed that he does not carry the clothes that he had during their battle, he has on more comfortable, light, and fresh clothing, white just like his shoes.
Björn began detailing the room, to the right of it is an elegant mirror with a gold frame. He approached the mirror and looked at himself, noticed that he was rejuvenated, there is not a single circle on his face. In the reflection of the mirror he saw a painting that is behind him, it has a very striking red frame, the canvas inside is totally white. He also noticed that on the ceiling there is a lamp identical to the ones in the stone vial.
The Viking approached the door and turned the knob, which began to open slowly. The light from the living room dazzled Björn's eyes as he just woke up. In the living room of the cabin, there is a round table and two people sitting at it.
