SS Norse

“I may have played around a bit too much.”
Immediately after she muttered that, she heard the trees around the plant swaying.
No, technically, she was hearing something more like the manmade wind caused in a
subway station when the train passed by in the tunnel. Such a large amount of kinetic
energy was approaching that the surrounding scenery was shaken by it.
In response to that great presence, Brunhild grabbed the spear that was propped up
against a nearby wall.
The weapon was 3 meters long.
However, it was not clear if the weapon should truly be called a “spear”.
Its silhouette was made up of an ash tree’s branch at the center with many pieces of steel
complexly intertwined around it. In some ways it was like the tip of a spear, but the
characteristics of a sword, an ax, and other weapons could be glimpsed as well. The
weapon seemed like some kind of trompe l'oeil. It pulsated like a living being and
wrapped around the ash branch like a snake.
The legendary spear was even then growing as it approached completion.
When it was truly complete, someone who could draw out all of its power would be able
to carry out things on the level of the greatest god of one mythology.

The quality of the spear and the skill to use it.
With either of those things missing, it would lose all meaning, but Brunhild Eiktobel was
sure of her ability. As a Valkyrie, she could…only she could…wield Gungnir.
In Norse mythology, the power of the gods was collected in the weapons and tools they
held.
Someone who held the spear of Odin, the greatest god, and could draw out all of the
spear’s power would be able to freely use the great power that made Odin a god.
With that, she could destroy and create at her leisure.
With such a great power, she could destroy the power balance of the entire magic side
just by existing. Magicians who knew of magic power and created it within their bodies
might even have their physical bodies torn to pieces by the massive pressure of Gungnir.
(So what?)
Even if she destroyed all magic cultures or even caused great damage to the planet Earth
itself, she had an objective she had to complete.
She had to make her plan one where even saving a certain boy was realistically
achievable.
Brunhild smiled thinly as she gripped the tree branch that felt warm like human skin.
(Its maximum output is at about 70%.)
She did not have any time left to think.
