Chapter 280 - 7: Racial Classes And Lore! (2/2)

But that was in the past and Eir became Nao's lover after having her life saved by him multiple times. Aht was the sane too, she now was Nao's wife, after the two had gotten married back at Aht's home land, Celestia. That happened during their down time between the two Planes. But that would be a story for another time...

Aht looked back at Nao with a loving gaze as she replied back to him. She seemed more mature now but would still show her innocent side every so often.

Nao nodded, confirming Eir's and Aht's choice.

”So two more Demihumans it is then. Chronoa, Fie, are you two going to choose something together?”

Both Chronoa and Fie nodded happily in response.

”We are. It's obvious Kai isn't a available racial class in this virtual world, we will go with the next best option. Angel!”

”That's right! Mother Chronoa and I decided on being Angels! I can't wait to see what it's like to have wings, hehe!”, Fie said with a giggle.

Nao couldn't help but reveal a playful smile hearing the two respond like that. He then noted the two down.

”Two Angels it is, two more Heteromorphic. Caulifla, Kale you two are up next. I'm guessing you've decided by now?”

Caulifla grinned while Kale nodded meekly.

”Saiyans are out of the question. Both of us are goin' with beastkin, obviously. I'll be a cat while Kale here is goin' to be a wolf!”

”...A wolf...for me...”, Kale spoke softly.

Hearing Caulifla say that with a grin, Nao almost spat out his saliva, and ended up choking a bit. Bur he noted the two down regardless. He figured Caulifla would be able to tease Nao a lot by choosing those two, but he remained silent and didn't retort.

Thankfully Yggdrasil did not allow any R18+ action of any kind in the game itself. If one was caught doing it by force or something, their account would get deleted permanently, unable to use their helmet any longer nor any other helmet's to log into Yggdrasil, as they were bound by iris scans.

”Two more Demihumans it is then. Let's move onto our last three. Vados?”

”Hohoho, I'll be going with what I'm used to, Angel of course.”

”Another heteromorphic race. Towa?”

”Demon.”, Towa said with a playful smirk appearing on her lips.

Nao could only sigh hearing that. Chronoa wanted to lash out at her for her choice but didn't. Nao simply noted it down.

”One more heteromorph. Last but not least, Michael?”

”I'll be going with Angel too.”, Michael respond with a calm smile.

”Got it. I'll say mine now. I'll also be going with Angel! That adds two more heteromorphic classes to the list. And that finishes it! Thank you everyone for deciding now. This will help speed up our character creation process knowing what we want to be.”

After Nao said that, the girls happily nodded their heads. Nao tallied the counts up, and spoke out again.

”From the looks of it. We have 3 Human classes, 5 Demihuman classes and 8 Heteromorphic classes. Good job everyone. Looks like we'll be able to spread out to every single world.”

”Excellent. You said you would go over these nine worlds before we split up accordingly, right, Nao?”, Elsa asked curiously.

”I did. Let me do that now. There is the ashen tree, Yggdrasil. It is known as the tree of life...” Nao answered Elsa. He then started to go into the lore of the nine worlds, causing the girls ears to perk up.

Asgard, first of nine leaves sprouted from the world tree, Yggdrasil, left alive by The One Who Devours All. Home to the Aesir Gods who watches over human living in Asgard, with the Lord of Asgard being their ruler, Odin. A paradise land known to many.

Alfheim, the second of nine leaves left alive by The One Who Devours All. Also goes by the name Ljósálfaheimr, the land of the elves. Light elves to be specific. They rule their forests in peace and often wage war against the Dark Elves over various disputes. The light and dark elves are said to be ruled by a pair of siblings, Freyjr and Fryeja. Known as Dream King and the Dream Queen, they belong to the race known as Vanir, a race of gods.

Vanaheim, also goes by the name Vanaheimr, the third of of nine leaves left alive by The One Who Devours All. The actual home to the Vanir Gods. Ruled by the Dream Menace, Njord, Fryejr's and Freyja's father. He rules the land with an iron fist.

Niðavellir, known as Nidavellir, the fourth of nine leaves left alive by The One Who Devours All. The land of the dwarves, mostly swarmed by human and demihuman players. A craftsman's paradise, where it known that anything and everything can be crafted or forged here, as long as one had the materials. Even godly equipment wielded by the gods.

Midgard, the realm of mortals, the fifth of nine leaves left alive by The One Who Devours All. A Human paradise where humans rule the land. As much only the Human class is permitted entry into this world. Demihimans require special permits and Heteromorphics would get executed on the spot. It is housed by one sole kingdom, ruled by Queen Mordred and her trusted knight, Arthur.

Jötunheim, the realm of the ice giants, the sixth of nine leaves left alive by The One Who Devours All.. An ice-capped world littered with valuable raw materials unknown to man. It is also said the land is ruled by Frost Dragons, the very same Frost Dragons Ainz manages to capture in the New World on his way to the northern mountains. The races here often antagonize those that belong to Midgard and Asgard. A demihuman paradise.

Niflheim, the realm of ice and mist, the Mist World and the seventh of nine leaves left alive by The Who Devours All. Stretching the land endlessly in ice with crisscrossing ice rivers, it is known to be a paradise to Heteromorphic players It contains the Bubbling Spring, Hvergelmir, said to be one of the main sources of water for Yggdrasil, guarded by the Dragon Serpent, Níðhöggr. The actual realm is the home of the fallen goddess, Hel, now known as the Goddess of Desth.

Helheim, the realm of the dead, the eighth of nine leaves left alive by The One Who Devours all. The most famous location of three to the heteromorphic players, and the most chosen starting location. It is ruled by Hel, the same owner of Niflheim. No Human is welcomed here. It also contains the very famous Hall of the Slain, Valhalla. Warriors who die in honor come here to reside in Helheim.

Múspellsheim, the realm of fire, the ninth of nine leaves left alive by The One Who Devours All. Those who sinned get punished and sent here to rot away in fire and torture for all eternity. It is ruled by the flame giants, with Surtr being their leader. He cuts away the sinners with his flaming sword. They like to wage war against the Frost Giants. It is the third of three lands available for heteromorphic players.

And these were the nine locations that were available to choose from in the virtual reality game, Yggdrasil!

It took quite a bit for Nao to reiterate this info to the girls before him. Seeing quite the diverse availability, anticipation appeared in their eyes. Before they realized it, the remainder of the last day passed.

With everything decided, it was now time to log in!

Nao took this time to split the girls into two groups as well to the Heteromorphic classes into one room and the Humans and Demihumans classes into the others. It would go as follows:

Dark Room #1 : Nao, Miya, Isabella, Chronoa, Fie, Vados, Towa, Michael.

Dark Room #2: Elsa, Sayuri, Chelsea, Tights, Aht, Eir, Caulifla and Kale.

Everyone acknowledged their positions It's not like they wouod be too far from each other either, was the two rooms were connected by a small corridor.

Everyone could also be seen with small metallic circles on the nape of their necks. A small hole could be seen in its center. Once Nao and the girls laid back on the chairs, they geabbed the virtual reality helmets one by one.

They then took the cord, connecting it to the back of their necks. Everyone felt a jolt streak across their nervous systems before they closed their eyes, letting the new images take place, appearing in their visions.

Link, start!

A/N : Yggdrasil is here!

Character sheets incoming. These will then be relocated to Vol 0 for further reference. The girls will have funny names and not meant to be taken seriously.

Some of this lore is spun to my liking. Don't expect it to fully match against the myths.

Nao's player name will be Metatron. I have his character sheet ready all thexway to Lv100 too so look forward to it (:
