Valhalla

Third Person PoV

As Cain was on his way to the Norse pantheon, his mind wandered to the night with his mother. He hadn't told everything to his wives as some other topics were also spoken in the drunkness by him.

He didn't get drunk but the wine,his mom had some good stuff. Not to mention her charm.

He hadn't banged his mother, they had just slept together, although none of them were clothed, nothing had happened.

But when his wives saw him like that, they just assumed he banged Lilith.

He told that to his wives to ease them into the idea that he may really fuck his mother. Both him and his mother knew that.

Flashback no Jutsu

Cain and Lilith were in his room. He always talked to his mom over wine whenever he was free.

Today was one such day. Lilith had brought out the special wine, she called it the devil's shots.

Cain didn't think it would affect him much, but the first cup told him that he was wrong. Fearing that he might do something when drunk he refused to drink it.

"Ara~Ara~, Is the king of Hell afraid to drink some old wine?"

Cain was not to fall for such a simple provocatio but, he was weak to his mom, not to mention her charm that she was releasing.

He also loved the human form of his mom, the succubus form made his primal urges rise, while the devil form made him feel a euphoric rush to show his dominance.

But the human form, he only had a feeling of motherly love for it. It may be due to the fact he saw her first in the form first when he was born, and his mind unconsciously imprinted that form as mother.

Thus he said " Only if you agree to stay in this form all night."

Lilith agreed and they started drinking. At first both were silent but as the level of wine decreased in the bottle, the silence also broke.

"You know Cain, I wanted to raise your brother and you both. I wanted to see your life, and perhaps if I was there, Rizevim would not be how he is now."

Cain wanted retort, his ability to reason had lowered significantly but he still held back and let his mother talk.

"But then I never got the chance. And what's more is that I can't even have a child anymore."

Cain knew that his mother was not as mentally stable as everyone thought. She hid it well behind her acting.

He knew what he had to do, maybe Serafall will be angry with him but his mother takes priority.

He poured his mom another drink and said.

"Do you want a child?"

Lilith responded with hope in her voice, she thought that if Cain could cure her maybe he can make her fertile again. But her hopes were crushed.

"No I cannot cure you, but I can give you a chance to feel what being another is like. Teaching a being who knows nothing about the world."

"What do you mean?"

Cain sighed and said

"There's a girl named Ingvild....."

After that he promised that he will have Ingvild come over and she can help her adjust to society, this will help both of them.

After that Lilith went overboard in happiness and took off her clothes and pulled him along to the bed.

Cain being the drunk guy he also tore off his shirt and slept with his mom.

Flashback over

…

Cain hnd almost reached the town where the entrance to the Nordic pantheon is. He was surprised to find a white haired beauty waiting for him.

Just as he reached closer he could sense her being a demigod and her dress was an indication to her status as a Valkyrie.

"I presume, the new Lucifer? The Allfather has been awaiting you."

"Indeed. And who you might be?"

The albino beauty scoffed and said

"Brynhildr, the leader of Valkyries. Behave yourself in front of the Allfather."

With a curt introduction Cain knew that Brynhildr didn't like him or more correctly his guts to challenge Valhalla.

After all that was a sacred place to the Valkyrie. Nevertheless he also knew that after winning the trial and telling her about Scathach, he will be her role model real soon.

He entered the pub and with the first step inside it he was greeted with a clear sky, and sky scraping mountains in the far distance.

It was almost like a scene out of a movie, but out of the corner of his eye saw Valkyrie, jump with her wings spread and saying.

"Reach Asgard as fast as you can on foot."

With that information the leader of the female fighting squad of the Nordic pantheon disappeared in a flash.

…

On the top of the mountains Cain had seen, stood a man with rainbow eyes. They glowed mysteriously.

Next to him a flash of light occurred and Brynhildr appeared, the man was unfazed as if he had already seen this beforehand.

"That devil is a guest of the Allfather, why did you leave him?"

"If he can't even come here on his feet he is not worthy enough to meet the Allfather!"

"Am I now worthy?"

The voice of Cain rang out. He was standing in front of both the Asgardians.

Heimdall was still calm, having already seen this due to his eyes. While Brynhildr was shocked. She couldn't believe that the devil was as fast as she was.

What she didn't know is that Cain hadn't even gone all out. If he went all out even Heimdall wouldn't be able to see him even if he was inside of Asgard.

"Brynhildr take him for what he came for, do not make The Allfather wait."

The maiden valkyrie started walking towards the vast castle in the centre of the dimension which was only a part of Yggdrasil.

Cain followed her and led him to a hall in which only two people were present. An elderly man with long grey hair and beard with a gold and white monocle on his left eye.

He had a glint in his eye showing his experience although the expression on His face didn't match the same.

That was Odin, the God-King of the Norse pantheon. Next to him stood the God of Thunder, Thor.

Thor was an absolute beast of a god standing at 7 feet and a bit extra with long red hair, greenish yellow eyes with black sclera. He showed off his torso which was sculpted with muscles.

There were two gloves on his hands and the famous mjolnir was hanging on his waist.

Brynhildr after allowing Cain enough time to observe the two gods said.

"Here is the challenger to Valhall, Allfather. We may now proceed."

Odin and Thor both didn't say anything. After looking at him Odin said.

"Very well, don't lose your life in Valhalla, or your wife may kill me!"

Contrary to his age Odin was very big of a pervert. He teleported in a flock of ravens leaving Cain with Thor, as Brynhildr had already left for the gate of Valhalla.

The giant god said

"I will be waiting for you until you reach the 100th match, Lucifer!"

And with that went with a thunderclap.

"How the heck am I supposed to know where the trial is going to take place? The Aesir are a bunch of battle maniacs, I swear not to God."

Cain using his senses located where the most people were gathered and flew there.

As he reached and landed in the centre of the arena, his eyes wandered through the crowd to find many more gods. But his observations were cut short due to the announcement of Odin.

…

In the grand arena of Valhalla, Odin's voice thundered through the air, commanding the attention of all who gathered. The gods and warriors fell silent as the Allfather spoke.

"Behold," Odin declared, his one eye blazing with intensity, "a challenger has come forth seeking to prove his worth in the halls of the mighty. Cain, son of the Morningstar and Lilith, steps forward to face the trial of Valhalla."

The assembled warriors murmured amongst themselves, intrigued by the presence of this newcomer. Cain stood tall, his gaze steady as he awaited for the trial to start.

Odin raised his spear high, the gleaming tip catching the light of the eternal fires that burned around them. "Let the trial begin!" he boomed, his voice echoing through the hall.

With a wave of his hand, Odin summoned forth the first challenge. A man appeared out of the massive gate infront of Cain.

The man was naked above the waist and had a large battle axe in his hand, a scar down his face showing his life was not easy.

The referee of the match, Brynhildr spoke

"This is the great-"

A single darklight spear pierced the warrior and he vanished into the gate from which he came.

"Can we start already? I would rather not waste my time with such a weakling."

Thor laughed boisterously at that, while a goddess, her beauty rivalling that of Aphrodite raised her eyes in amusement.

Brynhildr summoned the second opponent quickly and began introducing him.

"This is the fearsome-"

Another spear, and another victim. And it was going to continue.

"This is the ferocious-"

"This the dragon sl-"

"This is the the krak-"

Within an hour Cain passed ninety six trials out of the hundred and he didn't move from his place.

The first trial required one darklight spear; the ninety sixth required twenty.

But when the next opponent was summoned he felt that the trial finally got interesting.

He let the poor Valkyrie complete her lines this time. She was glaring at him very hard.

"The next warrior is great king Siegmund, the father of the hero Siegfired, the dragon slayer who defeated Fafnir. The Gigantis dragon."

The man appeared completely covered from head to toe, with only his eyes gleaming eerily.

The king drew out a greatsword form his sheath hanging on his back and pointed it as Cain, taunting him.

'I was deciding on warming up a little but I guess he isn't allowing me to.'

Taking up the taunt Cain rushed at the king with speed he could keep up with. The king brought his sword down on his shoulder.

Cain didn't bother to dodge it and let it hit, while he gripped the face of his opponent, and crushed it with ease.

The sword didn't even scratch his clothes, he simply dusted it remove any grains of rust from it.

The entire arena was silent, only the upper tiers of gods had reached the ninety seventh trial, and except Thor none of them had done it with such ease.

But they still were calm as the next one was not something anyone can win against. Brynhildr this time spoke with even great fervour and reverence in her eyes.

" The next warrior is the former queen of Valkyries, the queen of Fjoturlond, the greatest valkyrie, Gna!!"

The entire arena cheered at the mention of the name, this was the amount of respect wielded by the former queen of Valkyries.

Cain was prepared for a good fight, unless the queen of Valkyries decided to bellitle him.

"It's been a while since someone has manged to reach such heights in Valhalla. But your journey stops now, devil!"

With tha Gna rushed At Cain not giving him any time to respond, but Cain was already prepared for this.

Valkyries were warriors, they talked less and fought more. Speaking was meaningless here.

Cain dodged the grab and responded with a punch, which was caught by her and she threw him in the air.

Cain brought out his wings and stabilized in the air. Seeing that he can easily fly as fast as her, Gna decided to change her approach.

She charged up an combination attack of ice and electricity, knowing that individually no attack of her will do much to Cain.

Cain rushed at her to interrupt her but was blocked by her using geokinesis.

By the time he broke the wall, a dragon made up of ice and current jumped at him, but before they could do anything, the two were bound by darklight chains and ripped apart.

Gna tired to use the ability of bifrost to curse him but Cain raised a hand at her, unleashing a attack he rarely uses.

The liquid beam of darklight assaulted Gna, even the geokinesis and armour could not save her.

She was impeded into the wall of the arena with half of her body being badly burned.

"What horrifying strength!"

With that the former queen was defeated by Cain.

Just then a deafening howl rang out.

AN:- Getting directly into the action. The interactions with the gods will be after the trial.
