Omega Summoner - Chapter 2093: Restoring the Territory III
“I see. It is quite troubling that the northern continent started having more rifts. We have also found that out but even we could not pinpoint the source.” Elder Ascalor stated as he was talking to one of the Valkyries as they were also here for another agenda.
“Yes. There have been numerous reports of rifts appearing and then disappearing after a few hours. Some even appear suddenly and then vanish suddenly as well. It is quite alarming as some rifts release monsters that are not native to the northern continent. This disrupts the already harsh ecosystem of the north.” The Valkyrie stated.
“We will dispatch more demons in the north as we the brat already has an alliance with the Ice Queen Elona. He did say that an envoy from the north is coming but I did not think it would be the esteemed Valkyries.” Elder Ascalor stated.
“You flatter us too much. We have also made the northern continent our home base as we are preparing for the invasion of the Aesir Gods. The northern continent will definitely be the place they will arrive first should they start that plan. Which is why we also want some trade agreements in place as the north is not necessarily the best at making food.” The Valkyrie stated.
“I see. The northern continent might be harsh for food, but it is a treasure trove for ores which we lack. Given that the demigod blacksmith resides there, we can assume that the ores in the north are in surplus. We can create a trade agreement when it comes to ores and food which will benefit both parties. Transportation of goods are not a problem for us as we can do it in just a snap after all.” Elder Ascalor stated as there was indeed a growing need of ores and precious stone for Avalon.
“That would be most appreciated. We hope that this collaboration will do well.” The Valkyrie stated as the two started talking about other things like the state of the north and such.

“Here is the entrance to the guild house.” Adrian stated as he pointed to the portal near the Tree of Life and Death.
“It really is a portal! Also, the Tree of Life and Death is so pretty but eerie at the same time. If I might say… its eeriness is giving the tree its own unique beauty.” Frey stated as the twin prophets suddenly came rushing towards Adrian.
“Big Bro!” Both Vitae and Mortem shouted in excitement. The two of them might have grown up but they would always show their childish side towards Adrian.
“You two! I thought I told you to be careful as you might trip since the roots of the Tree of Life and Death are scattered about here.” Adrian stated.
“Do not worry as Yewdrassil will not harm us.” Vitae stated as she puffed her chest due to being confident. You can even see some of the branches of the tree nod in agreement to her statement.
“Is the pretty lady your friend? She feels familiar and comforting.” Mortem stated but such phrase is rare even for him to say.
When Mortem says the phrase familiar or comforting, the meaning could be derived from two things. Either the person is going to die, or they are a being blessed by death just like Adrian. Frey is part of the latter since she is a Valkyrie, and they are beings that are warriors of the Goddess Freyja which is a Goddess of Life and a minor goddess of death.
“This is my friend, Frey. She is a Valkyrie which is a warrior of the Goddess Freyja. She might seem familiar because she exudes her energy and is also the vessel of the goddess as well.” Adrian stated.
“I see. No wonder I could see the pretty goddess beside her.” Vitae and Mortem stated simultaneously as their eyes glowed in divine light.
Seeing the change in tone and atmosphere of the twin prophets, Adrian and Frey looked behind their backs and saw a beautiful woman sitting by the Tree of Life and Death. The Goddess Freyja appeared before them in an apparition which is actually never a good thing. Adrian always equates the apparition of a goddess into a troublesome situation.
“Hello, my child and Mediator.” The Goddess Freyja stated as she has indeed created an apparition thanks to the powers of the Twin Prophets.
The Goddess Freyja manifested as a normally clothed but extremely beautiful woman. She even has a boar and a cat beside her which are her divine beasts. Frey immediately knelt before her goddess while Adrian nodded to her. The Goddess Freyja smiled at this interaction and beckoned the four of them to sit with her. The boar and the cat intrigued the Twin Prophets which is why they played with each other while Adrian and Frey talked with the goddess.
“Greetings to the goddess. May I know why you suddenly appear before us?” Adrian asked as he clearly knew that this would become a headache.
“Hahaha. As said by the other gods, you do not like our presence because you think we bring troublesome news. It is quite amusing to see a mediator with your personality which is actually great in my opinion.” The Goddess Freyja stated as she found Adrian’s expressions and mannerisms when in front of a god or goddess cute.
“Great Queen Mother, why do you appear before me?” Frey stated in a respectful tone. “You do not need to do that much, my child. You should be more like the mediator and relax.” The Goddess Freyja stated as she looked at Frey with eyes full of tenderness.
“To what we owe the pleasure of your appearance?” Adrian asked bluntly which made Frey slap him on the back which amused the goddess.
“I came to congratulate you on protecting your territory as it is a holy sanctuary for the gods of life and death. I am here as someone that brings gifts on behalf of them.” The Goddess Freyja stated as she extended her hand and released a powerful pulse of divine energy.
