Chapter 1957: Temporary Bifrost I

”If that is the case, your new mission from us would be to escort Champion Equinox to the five locations of the Temporary Bifrost.” The Ice Queen Elona told Frey.

”Uhm… sure I can absolutely do this your majesty.” Frey replied as if she was also caught off guard from the sudden change of quest.

”I am absolutely sure that the both of you can complete it as Champion Equinox has never failed me yet. If he fails me then he will not be invited to the wedding.” The Ice Queen Elona stated.

”That is such a harsh punishment for failure, grandma.” Adrian stated which shocked Frey as she never seen anyone call the most powerful queen in the northern continent ʼgrandmaʼ.

”Well, if you do well then you would be reinvited to the wedding. Also, I cannot plan the wedding because some troublesome gods are trying to destroy my kingdom. I cannot have that now, do we?” The Ice Queen Elona stated.

”Fine. I will help you, grandma. Just make sure that you still have that Ice Jelly in the reception. I want to taste that again.” Adrian replied with a smile which also made the frosty ice queen laugh.

”I leave the young brat to you, Valkyrie. He will surely be of help to you, and I have the feeling that both of you already know each other.” The Ice Queen Elona stated.

”Thank you for your benevolence, your majesty.” Frey stated as she bowed before exiting the room.

”Nice seeing you again, grandma! You are surely glowing.” Adrian stated as he also went out of the audience room.

”I did not expect someone was bold enough to call the Ice Queen Elona as grandma. I thought that you would become a frozen corpse.” Frey stated as she only knew of the frosty attitude of the ice queen.

”She is actually very nice when you talk to her. Also, she might look frosty, but she is actually one of the people who has the warmest heart in the cold northern continent. It was quite the surprise to see you here as I thought the Valkyries are busy in the northern continent.” Adrian stated.

”It is great to see you as well. We were busy with things such as the sudden arrival of other Asgardians through the Temporary Bifrost. Unfortunately for us, we are not masters of spatial magic. We might have used the Bifrost before but that does not mean we can disable it or destroy it.” Frey stated with a smile.

”Well, at least you can still smile through the exhaustion. It means that there is still hope which I quite like.” Adrian stated with a smile as well.

”Anyways, why are you here? I thought you said that you would help one of your merchant friends?” Frey stated.

”I am helping him. It just so happens that one way to help him is to create a holy relic for a goddess.” Adrian stated as he told Frey what he was doing and why he was in the northern continent.

The two could be seen happily chatting with each other as if they were in their own world. The two seem to know what each other is doing but not to the extreme level of detail. They only know the general actions of one another as they are still in the getting to know phase. Still, both of them suddenly felt a bit warm in such a cold and frigid environment.

”Is it done?” A hooded person asked.

”The installation is not yet complete. The workers are already extremely tired from creating the initial markings. It might take us four hours to complete this one.” Another hooded person stated.

”Hurry up as we need to complete the needed Temporary Bifrost or else we will not get paid. Delay any more than this then it might cost us our life. Did you know what happened to the third team that was delayed by a day? They were sacrificed to feed the energy needed to power it up.” The hooded person stated.

”We will make sure that we are on track! Even if the slaves die, we will finish it within the next hour.” The hooded person replied as he is also afraid to be sacrificed to power up the Temporary Bifrost.

In the distance, one could see a hundred slaves carrying specified blocks of soil. They were pushing this soil down into the ground with all their strength. Once the specified block of soil is pushed down, the ground would suddenly illuminate with unknown energy. Sometimes this unknown energy would permeate upwards and afflict the slave.

Once affected, the slaves would either pass out from shock or suddenly spasm uncontrollably. The other slaves became afraid, but they could not defy the orders of the ones that have enslaved them. A black collar made of unknown material has bound them to forever follow the orders of their masters.

The slaves were of different origins as some were not even from the northern continent. They were definitely slaves that were illegally sent here as the vast part of the northern continent no longer did slavery. The Ice Queen Elona and the other war chiefs of the northern continent abolished it since they now face a bigger threat.

The northern continent has become more dangerous than before as it is the first continent where a Primordial Beast awakened.

”What are you all doing?! Get back to work or all of you will be killed!” One of the hooded individuals shouted.

Adrian and Frey were busy catching up and also talking about how the sudden change in the northern continent happened. He also asked how Frey is and her new home base here in the north as it seems that they now operate in the kingdom of the Ice Queen Elona. He was about to ask Frey to join his guild when a notification suddenly popped up which made him feel that something bad was about to happen.

[Another Temporary Bifrost has been created. Quest details have been updated.]

”This is not good.” Adrian stated as he looked at his quest and it now tells him to destroy six Temporary Bifrost instead of the original five.

”What was that?! It cannot be! Do not tell me that they are still making more!” Frey exclaimed as she also felt the sudden wave of energy that covered the kingdom as it was familiar to her.

”Frey! This is bad! Another one has been created. The other sisters have already gone to the other five locations that were discovered.” A Valkyrie that was stationed as the guard for their base stated as she hurried over to Frey to deliver the information.

”I also felt it, sister. I will go to the newest location.” Frey stated.

”It would be dangerous sister. You should wait for the others after they subjugate the ones guarding the other five locations.” The Valkyrie stated.

”I am not alone, sister. I will be coming with my friend.” Frey stated as she gestured towards Adrian and the latter raised his hand to wave at the Valkyrie.

”I am not convinced that one demon would be enough to help you, sister. It is still too dangerous. I am not looking down on your valiant demon friend but there might be Asgardians there as well.” The Valkyrie stated.

”Sorry to interrupt but I know it is dangerous. I was also given a quest by her majesty and her beloved. I will go to the location even without Frey as I was given a mission. It will surely ease my burden if Frey comes along with me. Also, I am not just a demon but an Arch demon.” Adrian stated as he knows that time is of the essence.

”I apologize, Sir Arch Demon. I am just caring for my sister.” The Valkyrie stated as she might have said a phrase that disrespected Adrian.

”You do not need to apologize as I did not take much offense. I am merely hinting that we need to move immediately as I can feel the powerful spatial energy pulse coming through. They might be activating all the Temporary Bifrost near the kingdom.” Adrian stated as his senses for spatial energy was through the roof.

”Sister! Inform the other sisters immediately as they might not expect that they will engage in a battle where the enemy has reinforcements coming.” Frey stated as she did tell Adrian that there was no use of the Temporary Bifrost for the past ten days.

”I will! Be careful, sister. To Sir Arch demon, please take care of my sister.” The Valkyrie stated as she immediately rushed to deliver a magical message to each of the five Valkyrie groups that went out.

”We should hurry to the newest location as we might see who are the ones that are creating the Temporary Bifrost. They have always been slippery as a snake which made it quite difficult to see how they were made but there might be enough time now. Please follow me as I will lead the way.” Frey stated as she rode on her Pegasus with Adrian flying next to her.
