Prelude to change 2.194

Rosewisse hugged Viggo from behind as he flew through the skies. She slid between the air currents as the earth beneath her feet passed at high speed. You could see snow-capped mountains until you descended into a valley where there was a huge castle. Near the castle, on a hill, there was a huge winged creature that as soon as it saw them, roared to the sky as if calling them. It had two wings and four legs. Out of fear, Rosewisse soared higher into the sky, making the creature so small that you could cover it with your hand, but it must have measured about a hundred meters from head to tail.

After passing the creature they came to what appeared to be a lake with a harbor, where there was an islet in the center and a huge sculpture holding a hammer in its right hand. Viggo held on to Rosewisse while using clairvoyance to look closer. It was clear that he was not Thor, he lacked several kilos of fat on him, and he was left-handed, not right-handed. Besides that, the sculpture was too heroic, and Thor was not. He was more like a drunk looking for quarrels with disheveled hair.

Then they continued flying north, the mountains raise again and Rosewisse had to gain altitude. She fluttered with her white wings covered by golden armor and soared until she could pass through the mountains. They advanced several kilometers where there was nothing but rocky slopes and snow. However, when they managed to cross the mountains, they could see a giant. Well, if he fell on the city of Orario, nothing would survive for hundreds of miles around.

The giant had a huge metal pillar piercing his head. Rosewisse was able to continue flying for half an hour, but the blizzards became more turbulent and prevented him from continuing. So, he descended to five meters, released Viggo and he fell on a snowfield. Rosewisse followed him afterwards, descending gently a few meters ahead of him. However, the blizzard remained strong, even at ground level. Rosewisse felt uncomfortable, as thanks to her wings, wind currents pushed her more easily.

-Where to?- shouted Rosewisse, trying to fight the strong wind currents.

Viggo activated his clairvoyances while his pupils took on a golden glow. He turned on his axis and began to look and move his vision away every hundred meters. Then he stopped, looking forward, but turned his face a little to the right.

-Over here- said Viggo, advancing through the snow -the giant is facing us, but if we want to get under the layers of snow, we must take the road to the depths of the city. By the blizzard you cannot see, but under all it is snow and, in the mountains, there are corridors and houses carved in stone. It must have been a large city, almost as large as a district of Orario-

-I don't hear you at all- Rosewisse shouted as I followed him -What did you say?-

-Nothing- Viggo shouted in response -just follow me, it's over here-

Viggo and Rosewisse walked for hours until they reached one of the giant's fingers. It was as huge as a four-story tall building. The fingerprints were marked on the tip of the finger as protrusions joined in a single line that raise several inches of jump over the skin. Under the finger was a cave that descended on a reclining and slippery slope.

Viggo stopped at the entrance as blizzards blew hard and fluttered his red hair. He used his clairvoyance again and after a minute, he said -this is not a good idea, this place is infested with wulver-

-Do you think the wands won't be enough?- asked Rosewisse, approaching Viggo as he tried to hold his long silver hair.

-It will be a problem with the wands- Viggo said -if we throw magic down there, everything will collapse. In addition, the wulver are counted by dozens, only the hand-to-hand combat remains-

-In that case there is no other way- said Rosewisse, she materialized the moonblade katana and knotted her belt on the left side. She unsheathed the katana with a blue blade and looked at it with a smile.

Viggo raised his left eyebrow and asked -You're enjoying it, right?-

Rosewisse passed her gaze from the katana to Viggo and instantly looked in another direction -no I don't like to use this katana, you know I'm magic-

-Please don't go crazy waving that thing. I remind you that that leaf can cut the stone as if it were hot butter-

-You are suspicious When have I made a mistake using my katana?-

Viggo raised his fist and raised his thumb as if he were going to start counting -Shall I list them?- he asked.

-Ok, I get it, I get it- said Rosewisse, frowning and looking into his eyes -I'll be careful with my katana, I promise you-

-I hope so, I wouldn't want to lose an arm because a crazy sword girl lost her sanity waving her katana-

Rosewisse nodded with a frown, and Viggo shook his head as he turned his eyes to the sky in a gesture of exasperation. He turned around and materialized the swords of chaos in his hands. A meter of damask steel mixed with twinkling titanite tempered with the ember of chaos, product of the era of the witch of Izalith. A short metal handle for the use of a hand with a chain tied on the knob and wound on the forearms. This weapon feeds on the strength of the user's soul, which serves Viggo to increase his soul strength and give him the power of the primordial fire of all worlds. Not to mention also that it is the source of the creation of all the demons that populate the earth before it is the Age of gods and humans.

Viggo began to descend the cave while Rosewisse followed closely.

-Can't you do something for the light?- asked Viggo, seeing that the light decreased with each meter that descended.

-I thought I was the crazy one with the katanas- Rosewisse replied in a contemptuous tone.

-Come on, don't start. You can't blame me for worrying. Remember that the previous time in the dungeon you cut off my arm. Thank heaven it was only a shallow cut-

-You're a crybaby, I was just helping you-

-Ok, ok, do something with the light-

-So annoyed- said Rosewisse -he materialized his silver wand and made a turn with the tip so that instantly a light appeared that floated above his head-

-Thank you- said Viggo as he noticed the light rising in the cave, but Rosewisse just snorted indignantly and didn't respond. Viggo let out a sigh and continued to advance through the cave until he led to a path that advanced horizontally to the right.

-Why are you so quiet?- asked Viggo as he walked through the cave that had taken on the bluish color of the ice. At the same time, the cold had increased to the point that Viggo felt it necessary to use a small layer of touki.

-What does it matter?- asked Rosewisse, angrily -I'm the crazy one with katanas, right?-

-Come on, don't start- said Viggo -you know I'm right. It's okay to get excited and even enjoy the fight, but when you cut off your teammate's things take another direction-

-You're so hateful- said Rosewisse.

-Ok, I'm shut up- said Viggo.

-I hate when you become condescending-

-I'm not condescending-

-Too victimize-

-I don't victimize myself, woman- Viggo replied as he activated his clairvoyance to look at the road ahead.

-If you victimize yourself- replied Rosewisse -you are always the wounded-

-Isn't it because I'm always close to you and I get the hurt my friend?-

-So exaggerated, it was only once-

-Okay, Rosewisse-

-Look, now you run away from the argument, as if you were the one harmed-

Viggo cut off the flow of divine energy and stopped his clairvoyance. He turned around and looked at Rosewisse's eyes. She frowned but pouted and didn't have the ability to rub his mistakes. Viggo let out a sigh and said -Unsheathe your katana, a hundred meters away there is a corner where the wulver were sleeping in a herd of twenty-

-I, I don't know if I want to unsheath- said Rosewisse.

-Ok, don't unsheath- Viggo said and kept moving forward

-Hey, don't give me orders- said Rosewisse and drew her katana. She advanced behind Viggo and saw him smile -damn why are you smiling?- she asked angrily.

-I don't know- Viggo replied in a mocking tone.

-You'll see, I will accidentally slide the katana and you will know what is good-

-Hey, that's not funny or as a joke-

Rosewisse snort with a mocking smile and said -we'll see, it may happen as it may not-

Viggo shook his head and kept advancing until the end until he could see the corner that turned left and went into the city grounds, below the giant. Viggo looked back and saw Rosewisse with the katana drawn. He takes a deep breath of worry and ask -Ready?-

Rosewisse nodded, Viggo responded in the same way, and they continued walking. It didn't take long for the wolves to react to the smell or noises. Before Viggo and Rosewisse came within twenty meters of the corner, several wulver came out and stopped at the corner and raised their noses sniffingly. Then they followed the direction of the scent and saw the light, Viggo in front and Rosewisse behind him.

The wulver slowly moved forward as their eyes emitted a fierce gleam and growled showing huge fangs. Behind the first were heard the footsteps of others and what was a pair of quickly transformed into a pack of six huge wulver of orange skin and two meters high that walked on their four legs like wolves.

Viggo frowned, activated his touki emitting the reddish aura and channeled soul strength to the swords of chaos that were lit with a reddish fire. That same fire made the wulver stop and growl as they hunched their swords. They began to step back one step at a time.

Viggo smiled at the reaction of the Wulver and said -You take those who are left alone. Then he jumped forward and crossed the distance of ten meters, arriving immediately in front of the wulver. The first of them stood up on two legs and threw a slap with claws almost twenty centimeters long, but Viggo passed under the hairy arm and with the sword in his right hand opened a huge slash in the abdomen where the entrails were scattered. Viggo took advantage of the same force of the movement and turned on his axis to discharge a second cut that cut the arm of the wulver. At the same time, Viggo heard someone running behind him and jumping head-on. Viggo could see out of the corner of his eye the watery green leaf with the glitter as if someone had caught the stars inside. The blade moved up and down, cutting off everyone ahead. Viggo also continued to do the same, knowing that Rosewisse had gone wild and attacked anything she identified as an enemy. Rookies, he thought. She has a good weapon and go crazy by the force of said weapon. Viggo was very careful about approaching Rosewisse rather than approaching the wulvers. His father had made a katana with a terrifying edge that with a gentle movement could cut off your arm in the blink of an eye. Rosewisse may not have been conscious, Viggo thought, but she was a gale when she attacked with a weapon. He wondered if it was a product of his Valkyrie blood.
