Chapter 201 Ymir.
Chapter 201 Ymir.
Jeanne and Brynhilde looked at each other after they heard Elena's voice in their heads. They both had been staying in the mountain near the gate, and nobody dared to approach them because they had tried to assassinate them but failed. They both then went to where the gate was, but they realized Magnus and the others were still guarding the gate.
Magnus heard rustling sounds in the distance, and he with everyone immediately stood up and grabbed their weapons. The moment they saw Jeanne and Brynhilde, they felt anxious and scared because they saw those two holding their swords indicating that they were there not to talk.
"What are you doing?" Magnus asked as he held his spear.
"Move. We are here not for you," Jeanne said as she kept walking toward the gate.
"We won't let you get any further than this!" Magnus shouted and charged toward Jeanne with a spear in his hand.
Brynhilde swung her sword so fast that Magnus didn't realize that the spear had been cut in half. The moment Magnus looked down at his spear, Jeanne grabbed his face and threw him off the mountain. The others who watched Magnus fall off the mountain immediately charged at those two, but they died before they knew it.
Magnus hit a sharp rock right on his back on his fall, and it messed with his spine that it was so painful. He groaned as he tried to stand up, but he was barely able to move his shaking legs. He wasn't concerned about his condition, he was more concerned about what Jeanne and Brynhilde were planning to do.
"(Stand up)" Odin's voice could be heard inside Magnus' head. "(Believe in me and you will receive my power)" Odin continued.
Magnus took a deep breath with his eyes closed, and then he heard a notification sound. When he opened his eyes, he was baffled when he saw a lot of notifications before his eyes.

"Are you sure you're ready to face him? Even Odin himself doesn't want to get near him even though Odin once killed him to shape the six of the nine realms," Loki asked and looked at Jeanne in her full plate armor that fit with her body.
"I wouldn't wear this armor if I'm not ready," Jeanne answered as she looked at the gauntlet she wore that felt like her own skin, flesh, and bones.
The armor was specially made by Amaryllis, and everyone had a different model and size since they were made to be fit, not too small or too big on their bodies. Amaryllis was confident that the armor would be as strong as Mykel's body, and that the armor itself could regenerate, and so their weapons as well.
The moment they passed the gate, the mist started to cover everyone and it magically separated one from the others. Jeanne couldn't sense any presence around her as if she was alone in the thick mist. She then heard a deep growl in front of her, and then she could see a big mouth with a blazing blue flame inside it and glowing dark blue eyes behind the thick mist.
Jeanne walked toward it since she knew who it was, and that was Fenrir, Hel's brother, and Loki's son. When she was right in front of the giant wolf, she could see someone was riding Fenrir, a woman with half of her face missing.
"You retained your old face back," Jeanne said and stared into Hel's eyes.
"This has always been my face ever since I was born," Hel answered. "Follow me, I'll show you where Ymir is," Hel said and then Fenrir started running into the thick mist.
Jeanne spread her wings and followed those two from behind, and the moment the mist had thinned, she could see the two worlds standing side by side, the Helheim and the Muspelheim. She watched Fenrir jump from one root to another, and she kept following those two until they reached the edge. The edge was a vast empty space that had no end to it, even Jeanne didn't want to go beyond that.
Jeanne landed right next to Hel and Fenrir, and then Loki appeared out of thin air and stood next to her. They looked around and Jeanne couldn't see anything but mountains next to her.
"So? Where's he?" Jeanne asked and looked at Loki and Hel.
They both looked at each other for a moment and then they both pointed at the mountains on their sides. Jeanne looked at the mountains on her left and right, and she was confused as to what they were trying to show her.
"I see nothing but mountains. Is he hiding in one of those mountains?" Jeanne asked again with furrowed eyebrows.
"No Jeanne," Loki paused to shake his head. "Those mountains are parts of his body, or should I say, those mountains are his fingers," Loki continued and stared Jeanne in the eye.
The moment Loki said that the mountains started to shake and move that was enough to shake the whole Yggdrasil Tree from the roots all the way to the top. They then started to see a massive head that blocked the empty space in front of them. A pair of light blue eyes started to rise, and its eyes were as big as the moon. All this time, Ymir had been hanging on the edge, protecting it from the threats below the nine realms.
"Now I understand why Odin doesn't want to get near him anymore," Jeanne said as she watched Ymir rise from his slumber.
