Record of Ragnarok: Ouroboros

Chapter 5: Chaotic Dance

"A..a...a...Aunt Göll! What the hell was that?! Baldr shoots out some laser beam!" Aslaug screechs in complete terror, with her eyes trembling.

"This is Baldr's awakened ability during his time at war against the giants, he is being literal about his divine title "God of Light". The reason why I have to send out Hassan-i Sabbah against Baldr is to finish him before the ability re-awaken. If this fight drags on for long enough...Baldr will inevitably win with his ability." Göll stated that Baldr would be victorious if Hassan didn't kill him before Baldr used Light Bringer to its full capacity, seemingly nervous, as seen by her biting her nails.

At the audience seating, Váli, and Forseti witnessed Baldr unleashing his awakened power that was locked away for centuries, not seen by anyone, only known through rumors.

"Hell yeah!! Send him to his demise, Baldr!" Forseti cackled at Hassan and wished for him to die.

"I think I shall send some unnecessary prayers to that human." Váli mockingly prayed for Hassan, scoffing at the fact that the humans thought Baldr could be defeated by a human.

"Woah...So that is the rumored power of Baldr that I've heard about, it's so shiny!" Ares exclaims amazed by the sight of Baldr's awakened power that his eyes even sparked like stars.

"Indeed, I assume that Baldr is now going all out, this is getting interesting...But that still doesn't explain why Baldr has such a dangerous ability. Would you perhaps know something about this ability, Lord Zeus?" Hermes questions Zeus before both Hermes and Ares shift their gaze at their father.

"The Light Bringer is the inner power of Baldr that has been sleeping inside of him since birth, the reason why it took so long to awake during the war is that his benevolent nature kept locking it up, never managing to let it out, causing it to die out slowly. However, Odin engraves ancient runes and magic onto Baldr's body and soul in secret, only acting as his tattoos from the outside but a larger surge of power from his father from the inside." Zeus stated as he looked forward, focusing on Baldr with Light Bringer activated.

With the Old Man of the Mountain, he uses his large sword to shield himself from the upcoming attack but he obviously knows that attempting to guard himself from the blast won't work as the light will engulf himself whole anyway. The assassin becomes nervous for a moment before regaining his composure.

"Aunt Göll, are you sure that Hassan is going to survive this?! He is already that injured, he most likely won't survive a second one!" Aslaug asks her aunt in a nervous tone, not confident that Hassan can survive a second Light Bringer.

"Aslaug, you perhaps don't understand Hassan-i Sabbah...As the one who is considered the assassin among all assassins, he always escapes risky situations." Göll says, her voice becomes more confident as she knows what Hassan can do next.

Aslaug gulps as she looks at the assassin, being extremely nervous even after Göll's statement. "Please... Give it all you've got, Hassan! Don't you dare fall here!!"

"Are you ready for a second serving, pops?" Baldr confidently says as he poses the Light Bringer at Hassan.

"None could ever break me down and not hither to a god. As a champion of humanity. I shall protect my people's lives, and bring the score up over thy dead body." Hassan threatened Baldr's life, promising that as an assassin, he would always kill his victim.

"Oh? I don't follow. You said that you will win...However. You will not bring the score up." Baldr proceeds to emit a large amount of light from his body, blinding almost everyone's eyes, and causing them to cover up.
