Hela's Surprise

"Brunnock is in the camp led by Lord Odin."

Forseti took the shield, nodded, and said, "Don't worry, I will give it to him myself."

He glanced at the shield and saw a line of words engraved on the inside for Brunnock: Brunnock, go home.

Old Hadier asked, "When will you arrive in Vanaheim?"

Forseti thought for a while: "It should be within a month at the latest."

Leaving Hadier's blacksmith shop, Forseti put the Scarlet Commander's Shield on the blueprint of the Sanctuary for identification.

**[Completion: perfect]**

**[Item Level: Level 5]**

It's a perfect finish!

Forseti was very surprised. Although he had long felt that the shield was of excellent quality, he did not expect it to be perfect, and it should last a long time.

More than half a month passed.

For the past two weeks, he had tried to hide at home as much as possible to avoid being forced to recruit soldiers. This was not because he did not want to participate in the war, but because Shilput was still sleeping, and he couldn't leave him at home alone.

Until this day, Shilput finally woke up from a deep sleep of nearly a month and looked around blankly: "Buzz buzz."

Forseti followed the sound, took a look, and nodded secretly.

After this deep sleep, Shilput had grown about twenty centimeters and was already like an eight or nine-year-old child in height.

"I'm Shilput." Forseti tried to teach him to speak.

"Buzzing." Shilput touched his head but still couldn't speak.

"Shilput."

"Buzzing."

"..."

Forget it, just treat him as a buzzing monster. Forseti sighed and stopped thinking about it.

After Shilput woke up, Forseti took the initiative to go to the Military Hall, which was near Valhalla Hall.

"Forseti Garrison?"

A middle-aged civil official opened a magic book, and a three-dimensional full-length portrait of Forseti appeared directly on it, showing a short, immature image.

He carefully compared the short and immature image with the now tall and strong Forseti. He became more and more puzzled and said, "To be honest... I think you are like Forseti's brother."

Forseti took out the blade that Odin gave him: "Lord Odin gave me the blessing of fate. Thanks to the Lord, I awakened my divine power not long ago. The divine power may have changed my appearance; I think you should know this."

Looking at the inscription of Odin on Forseti's blade, the civil servant's demeanor couldn't help but be respectful: "So it is, as expected of a warrior that Lord Odin values."

"I wonder what kind of power you have awakened?" he continued.

A fire appeared in Forseti's palm, and he said, "Flame."

The middle-aged civilian couldn't help but flash envy for a while, then said: "According to the rules, those who have awakened their supernatural powers will get the second-level military post when they join the army, which is the position of deputy captain in most cases. Of course, the specific arrangement will be determined by the camp commander."

"...We want to know about your personal wishes. Now there are three major camps in Vanaheim, which are led by Lord Odin, Lord Gela, and Lord Brunnhilde. Which one do you want to go to?"

Forseti didn't even think about it: "Naturally, it is the camp led by Lord Odin."

"Okay." The middle-aged civilian nodded, wrote down a few lines, and said, "Tomorrow at noon, a group of reinforcements will pass through the Bifrost. You must gather in front of the Bifrost."

"By the way, because you have awakened your divine power, and your divine power has greatly changed your appearance. Therefore, it is necessary for you to apply for a new divine registration."

Asgard is a small country with few people, and the formalities are not so particular, so the Military Affairs Office helped Forseti solve the problem of re-applying for divine status.

Of course, there is also Forseti's Blade. With a fairy steel dagger with Odin's inscription, it is easy to get preferential treatment wherever you go.

At noon the next day, Forseti brought Shilput to the vicinity of the Bifrost. Hundreds of soldiers had gathered here and were divided into three square formations, apparently corresponding to the three major camps in Vanaheim.

After the personnel arrived, Ullr opened the Bifrost and sent away the soldiers of the three square formations.

After coming out of the Bifrost, Forseti looked around and found that the surrounding area turned out to be a scene similar to ruins, with broken walls and ruins everywhere.

Just a few dozen meters diagonally in front of him, there was a collapsed statue of an ancient hero, and the statue's sword-carrying arm was broken in two.

If it weren't for the soldiers coming and going nearby, he would have thought that the Bifrost was teleporting wrong.

"This was originally the royal city of the Vanir, but it was severely damaged on the first day of the war. Many members of the Vanir royal family, including King Vanaheim, died here." Someone explained a few words to the recruits.

"The recruits with magical powers go to the commander to accept the arrangement, and the others follow their captains."

As soon as the words fell, everyone left, leaving only two people, one of whom was Forseti. Apparently, the others are either incompetent or not recruits.

The Bifrost teleportation will leave shallow or heavy scorch marks on the ground of the destination—the energy of the Bifrost is very huge, and it may even destroy the entire planet if it is not controlled well. Leaving only some scorch marks is Hermond's precise control under the blessing of the teleportation hall.

The two stood in the scorch marks, the ground still smoking, and they couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

"Hello, my name is Fairwind." Another person, a thin, red-haired youth, took the initiative to say.

"Hello, my name is Forseti." Forseti also introduced himself.

"Brother, your muscles are really good. How do you train them? Can you teach me?" Fairwind said, then looked at the little stone man behind Forseti's butt, "Hey, is this your attendant?"

This man seemed to be a chatterbox, and Forseti didn't answer: "Let's go to the command post."

The two immediately asked a soldier for directions, and then went to the command post of Odin's camp.

Odin's Camp is a fairly intact three-story stone building in the Vanir royal city, with several Einherjar standing guard nearby.

Forseti and Fairwind took out the documents issued by the Military Affairs Office and showed them to the Einherjar. They were then released and entered the command post. However, the Einherjar did not let Shilput in, so Forseti had to tell him not to move around at the door.

After entering, Forseti couldn't help but be taken aback.

In the conference hall of the command post stood a long-haired woman in light armor, with her back to Forseti, looking up at the large map in front of her.

This figure was naturally Hela, and light armor could not hide her curves.

As soon as the two came in, Hela noticed them.

She turned around, didn't recognize Forseti at first sight, and said lightly, "Divine recruits?"

Fairwind handed over the document and at the same time turned his head for some reason, not daring to look at Hela.

Hela took the document and looked at it, frowning: "Fairwind... see-through divine power?"

Fairwind still turned his head: "Yes, Your Highness."

Hela didn't say anything, took Forseti's document, glanced at it, and was stunned: "Forseti?"

She raised her head quickly, looked carefully for a few moments, and then showed an unbelievable look. Her red lips parted slightly, and she was speechless for a long time.

"Your Highness, stay safe." Forseti smiled.
