Gilgamesh in DxD

Chapter 244

"Let's call it a day Young Master, we have been fighting for twelve hours without stopping" Sebas spoke calmly.

Gilgamesh immediately collapses, dirt, blood and sweat covering his clothes. His clothes are torn all over, but he doesn't care.

"Worrying about the state of your clothing in a fight is an easy way to get distracted and killed" Sebas was telling him.

"A victory is a victory. It doesn't matter whether it's the most chivalrous victory or the dirtiest, most underhanded victory of all time. As long as you survive and your opponent doesn't, that's all that really matters" Sebas also told him.

"That was good training" spoke a voice and both Seba and Gilgamesh turned to look.

Walking calmly towards them was Enkidu walking calmly while Valerie was beside him along if Regulus.

It had been two months since Valerie had been rescued and the young Dhampir had loosened up a bit, but she was still a bit wary, she had also become very attached to Gilgamesh.

"Are you alright Gilgamesh?" asked Valerie worriedly receiving a nod from Gilgamesh with a smile.

"Sebas I prepared what you asked for" spoke Enkidu calmly as he approached.

Sebas nodded, as Gilgamesh turned his gaze to him.

"What happened Sebas?" asked Gilgamesh curiously.

"I decided it's time for you to learn a little more about the Factions, and so I was thinking we travel to the Nordic Faction, where you can learn several things" informed Sebas calmly.

"So where are we going?" asked Gilgamesh curiously.

Sebas simply smiled.

"Norway"

...

...

Loen, Norway.

"Are you sure it is this way?" asked Gilgamesh as he turned to Sebas.

Soon after Gilgamesh's training happened the King of Heroes, along with Sebas, Valerie and Enkidu came to Norway bound for the Nordic Faction.

Everyone was following Sebas who seemed to have gone to the Nordic Faction before, currently they were in a huge forest with a large stream in front of them.

"Yes, now we have to fly" said Sebas as he spread his draconic wings from his back.

Gilgamesh raised an eyebrow before accepting and taking Valerie on his lap making the girl blush as she used magic to fly, Enkidu followed right behind them as he used his own magic to fly.

They fly for about an hour before descending into a misty forest. Gilgamesh can tell by the magic around this place that this mist is clearly not ordinary.

"They create this mist so that people don't stumble into this place. The reason we didn't teleport here is that we probably would have been attacked instantly. Most Pantheons kill first, ask then type" Sebas informed them.

Gilgamesh and Enkidu move even closer to Valerie in case they are suddenly attacked.

They continue walking for 15 minutes, chatting a bit, before standing in front of a giant gate with white bars, with a large circle in the center where the two sides meet, representing a riding Valkyrie. Mist completely covers the sides of the gate, and Gilgamesh doubts that getting around it is possible.

"So what do we do now?" asked Gilgamesh as Sebas stepped forward being followed by everyone.

"Stop the traveler. For what reason have you come to the gates of Valhalla?" A young woman with golden hair and green eyes, no more than 25 years old, asks as she rides on.

"We seek an audience with the Father of All" Sebas states with a serious tone.

"For what reason?" the beautiful Valkyrie asks.

"To see Asgard" Sebas says.

The Valkyrie raises an eyebrow. A magic circle appears in her ear and she nods in response.

"The Father of All, Odin, has decided to accept your request. Please pass through the gates," she says as the gates begin to open. The moment Sebas, Gilgamesh, Enkidu and Valerie cross the gate line, they are suddenly somewhere else, on a rainbow bridge. They are looking beyond the bridge, miles away, they can see a sprawling city, with magnificent buildings that glow in the sunlight.

"That is Asgard and the bridge we are on is the bifrost, the one that connects the 9 realms of Yggdrasil. If you want, you can think of the human realm as the 'main dimension' with the dimensions of the gods branching off No other divine realm is directly connected to it. You would have to go through the Dimensional Rift to get here, otherwise" the Valkyrie informs them.

Gilgamesh and everyone else nod their heads, too surprised to say anything else. Clearly, the gods live here, for it is honestly unreal. Valerie can't speak either.

"Let's go. Better not keep Father of All waiting" Valkyrie says, but Gilgamesh notices a slight irritation when she says Father of All.

It takes about 30 minutes on foot to reach the town and another 15 minutes later to the main building. Still, Gilgamesh doesn't mind one bit. He likes the new scenery.

The Valkyrie points out the mansions of Thor, Loki and the other gods and goddesses of the Norse religion. Many people in the city are valkyries or servants of the gods. Gilgamesh sees many running around, living as humans do.

Soon, they arrive in front of the massive doors of the throne room. Valerie, a little nervous, grabs Gilgamesh's hand, receiving a gentle squeeze of his hand as assurance. The Valkyrie in front of him pushes the doors open, and the swing opens noisily.

Inside the throne room, Gilgamesh's gaze is first placed on the man on the throne.

He was an elderly man with long, gray hair and a matching beard. He wears a gold and white monocle over his left eye, without the addition of the chain. He wears a cloak, which is short and blue with a gold lining at the top and bottom of the collar, on the sleeves of the cloak, and on the front of his cloak to the bottom of the cloak. The rest of his robe is white with matching shoes. He also wears a gold and black hat, which is divided into five mini sections that display the color black or gold, the top, middle and bottom sections are gold, and the black sections are below and above the middle one. The black section has blue orbs at the ordinal points: north, east, west, south, etc., and between the blue orbs there are red dots.

Gilgamesh recognized him as Odin, the King of the Norse Gods.

As Gilgamesh looks around, he notices the Valkyries lining the carpet that extends over the marble up to the throne, with sword and shield in their hands, each one looking like a warrior princess. His eyes wander to the ceiling, the dome decorated with gold, with images of Odin's heroic deeds painted on it.

They start walking toward him, still without leaving his examining gaze, and Gilgamesh sees what he presumes are other gods and goddesses, who are curious to know why they are in Asgard. Many are murmuring among themselves, but Gilgamesh cannot hear the conversation. They stop at the edge of the stairs leading up to the throne while Odin is still looking at them. Valerie squirms slightly at the intensity, but shows no fear.

Odin leans back on his throne as the Valkyrie kneels on the floor, while Gilgamesh and his friends remain standing.
