The Asgardians

Its been a while since Odin and Frigg have been reunited. The joy of seeing each other was short lived, as even though they survived, it did not change the fact that Ragnorok had snuffed the life out of their family and friends.

The both of them had no actual recollection of the Dusk of Gods, they only knew it happened. The fact they survive is odd to say the least. The Dusk of God means the end of the gods and the restart of the known world, but they broke the rule.

Odin and Frigg didn't dwell long on this issue and instead begin to create children. However after two years, they failed. It seem because they were gods, the chance of creating new gods are low, but once they succeed, the child would be able to reach the same heights as them.

Inside the palace of Asgard, Odin and Frigg were sitting on their thrones, observing the Midgard, with smiles on their faces. It seem like Ragnarok missed Midgard and only targeted the gods. Otherwise, they would not be looking at the Nordic people worshiping them.

"Frigg, since our efforts have not produce any results, what do you suppose we do? Though there are many things to do, it wouldn't hurt to have a break. I still haven't check Vanhalla to see if it escape as well."

As for the World Tree? That was established in his youth in order to bring order to the universe, with the amount of dangerous races there were out there, but since the 'Dusk of Gods' have happened, most of these races must have died, since the universe will beginning a new. Though Odin was confuse as to why humans have survive, its possible he did something to protect them? But why would he protect them and not his own family?

"Its ironic how the most exciting place in the universe have become so bland and boring. That being said, I think we should descend and talk to these mortals; maybe from them we could learn what happened during the Dusk of Gods." Frigg said fondling with the rings on her finger.

"However, how should we descend? Should we descend and blend into human society or descend as gods?" Odin didn't know which one to choose, not because he was dumb but because the benefits for both was relatively the same.

"Descending as gods would be the best choice; it will strengthen the faith the mortals have in us. In normal times descending as a mortal would be best since we could learn what the mortals really think, but we don't have time to waste."

Odin nod, holding Gungnir in his hand and he cast spell, <Teleportation >.

In a flash of blue light, Odin and Frigg disappeared from Asgard.

Bjorn Island is a Nordic Island which followed the teachings of the Nordic Gods. They are experts at raiding ships and conquering island territories.

On Bjorn, there are five clans, the leaders of the island.

Around Bjorn Island, there were many slender ships anchored down, ready for another outing.

In the center of Bjorn, the Vikings were wearing their traditional and war paint on their faces and arms. In their arms, the Vikings held their weapons, axes, swords, and spears with fire in there eyes.

The Hofgothi, stood in the center of the gathering crowd next to the bonfire, leading the worship ceremony. He had his gothi pass out bronze cups filled with unknown liquid to the Viking.

This was a common ceremony, everytime one was going to out to sea, one would do either a great or common ceremony to honor the gods, their chosen gods.

Unlike most religions, the Norse honored all gods, but they all have a single god that guide them throughout their lives. They live according to how their gods wish and try to live a life of honor.

The Hofgothi, along with gothi, spoke in solemn tones, "Today we honor the gods and our warriors! Today, our Vikings are going on another raid, we hope they return triumphantly with glory for our people and gods. Those who fall, I hope they have a chance in the halls of Vanhalla!" The Hofgothi looked around, "Remember to destroy the temples of those false gods. Real gods are worship by warriors, not weak chickens!"

"ROAR! For Vanhalla!!" The Vikings shouted, making them seem crazed. Some of them seem to have taken something that put them in a heightened state, where not even death will sacre them.

In the back of the group, Odin and Frigg stood watching with interest. He could tell that the cup was filled with hypnotic liquid, but didnt do anything. These were indeed his people, but since they been doing this for centuries, why change that?

Odin and Frigg was not seen, as they were hidden by magic.

"So Odin is the first to apart from the Primordial Gods to enter Earth? That's not bad, but I think I need to speed up the process. The gods are having a worry free time, not having the necessary fear to develop. They are far weaker than the gods in the Dominion, having experience in battle will perhaps give them a chance be useful. Though cannon fodder, even they have their uses." Ainz said watching Odin and Frigg leaving Asgard.

Chronos looked at Ainz and said, "Lord Ainz, the world consciousness have accepted the changes you created in Greece. I believe it would be wise to create more changes in all parts of the world, to get the necessary benefits to truly fight the Outer Gods of that world. The other places are being accepted as well, but the process seem to have slow down."

"Yes, I have sense the change in my body. My power have been increasing slowly but its noticeable. My mana have increase by at least 5%, but the greatest change I have notice is that, as long as I am in areas accepted by the world consciousness, I no longer need to use mana, I can cast spells as will. Unfortunately, this only applies in this world." With the power he had now, Ainz realize something, he was the strongest player to have exist. While some players could beat him in the path ot warriors, in the path of magic, he was truly unrivaled. In fact, Ainz knew subconsciously he had more mana than some World Enemy, but not the capabilities to beat them single handedly. He was close to the power required, very close.

Changing the Mirror of Remote Viewing to Greece, Ainz saw that every time someone died, their souls would be absorbed by the Underworld. While the power of the Primordial Gods power having a similar boost like his, but only in Greece. Maybe after a thousand years, they will have power rivaling a level 100 player or even more, but by then he would truly become a Supreme Being.

Reaching into his inventory, Ainz brought out highest form of Remote Viewing, a small pool which can show scenes of desire locations. This version cannot be block by anything below World Class items, but the restrictions are very high.

One cannot see a scene of a location one haven't been to, the more protection a location have, the more money and mana is needed.

Looking at Ainzland, Ainz made sure nothing major was happening, but noticed something. "Eh, those Players chose to leave? Where have they gone?" Rubbing his chin, Ainz wondered if he made the right call back then.

The NPCs warned him many times to kill these Players because they posed a threat but because they were the first ones found, he spared them. The one he was worried about is Sila, the Queen of Demons.

Sila is the oldest Player in Ainzland, with an unknown background but from the clues gathered, she is somehow related to the Devs. How else would she, who does not possessed the class of World Champions or World Disasters, stand above them?

Before he broke the level cap, she was undoubtedly the strongest, but since he possess a group of loyal subordinates and many powerful items, she have not cross the line he have created. In fact, Ainz wanted to have her joined Nazarick, but he didn't have the time and chance to bring that conversation up.

Shaking his head slightly, Ainz noted this in his heart and begin to scout the entirety of planet for opponents for Earth.

Looking everywhere, Ainz saw a few races that could pose a threat but he wasn't heartless. These were his people, his subordinates, he cannot simply toss them away to die.

Pondering for a second, an idea formed, which cause hin to laugh devilishly. "With this, not only will I not need to worry about them dying, it would bring new strength to the empire. With my strength and the strength of my NPCs, it would only be a matter before we conquer this universe, this will be a step towards that. Not only that, this will help in the invasion of he Dominion."

With that in mind, Ainz activated <Gates > close to the races he choose on Ainzland to Earth.

The <Gates > appeared in the Dragon Mountain Kingdom, a kingdom under the rule of the Empire, who worships the Dragon God, Sebas Tain.

In this kingdom, there were real dragons, Dragonoids, and other races with dragon blood. The rulers of this kingdom are call Dragon Lords, but they were nowhere close to Dragon Lords of the past.

When the <Gate > opened in the skies above their kingdom, no one was alarmed but instead excited! To be able to use such magic, only a God could do it. And according to legend, the Blood Goddess Shalltear was the one who was in charge of them.

Waiting a couple minutes and noticing that no one was coming out, many citizens pondered, before spreading their wings and flying into the <Gate >. Among them, a Dragon Lord.

Entering the <Gate >, they appeared in a new world, completely different from what they were use to. They were shock at the potency of magic power in this world, it was at least five times higher than their own.

The Dragon Lord, spoke, "I'm afraid this is not the power of a God, it must have been the Emperor who opened the <Gate >. We all know that while the Gods can do great feats, none of them can move us to a new world. Well I haven't heard of a God doing this. So its best to assume that the Supreme One is responsible. We don't know the reason but it might be apart of the 'Ten Thousand Year Plan'."

Everyone responded and flew in different directions.

Watching everyone leave, the Dragon Lord laid next to the <Gate >, pondering what the Supreme One wanted.

As this was happening, in many parts of Ainzlandt, many mythological creatures such as Vampires and Werewolves entered Earth. It doesn't matter which it continent it was, there were beings from Ainzland present.

The supernatural world was completely unaware that they will not be free anytime soon; continuing on their business.
