Buddha x Valkyrie Reader
Who would’ve thought that because of your sister’s reckless decision to challenge the gods to Ragnarok… you’d end up meeting the most annoying god in existence.
Part 1
The incense scent filled the air as Buddha turned his back on you and brunhilde while lazily stretching his arms above his head.
“Alright, Valkyrie-chan,” he said. “Class is in session.”
You frowned at him. “Don’t call me that.”
He glanced over his shoulder with a teasing grinned.
“Then stop making cute expressions when you’re angry.”
Your cheeks instantly burned.
“I am not!”
Brunhilde sighed exhausted. “Ignore him and listen carefully this is important.”
Buddha snapped his fingers.
The air shifted.
Suddenly, the warmth of the room intensified, the incense smoke swirled around him unnaturally .
His playful aura faded, replaced by something ancient, heavy and powerful.
Your breath hitched as your face become more serious and focused.
“Volundr,” Buddha began, voice calm yet it carried a firmness in them.
“is not just a weapon.”
He turned to face you fully.
“It’s a soul contract.”
Your eyes widened in confusion. "a soul contract.." you muttered
“You don't simply turn into a divine weapon, you have to synchronize with a human’s soul or any soul at that. Your emotions, your fear, your resolve… all of it”
You clenched your fists, your frown intensified, when a thought hit you.
“So if the human hesitates…”
“Then you shatter,” he said bluntly.
Your heart sinked. Now knowing the possibility of you dying, of your sisters dying.
“And if you hesitate,” he added,
stepping closer, “the human dies.”
Silence fell.
You swallowed hard, taking a deep breath.
“Its insane…” you whispered.
Buddha crouched slightly,so your eyes met his, he put his hands on your head. For once, there was no teasing in his gaze.
“If you want to make it alive in the ragnarok, you shouldn't be afraid.”
Your chest tightened. How can you not be afraid, anyone will be, especially with the thought of you and your family dying because of their choices to defend the human and fight against the god.
Brunhilde spoke softly, “That’s why not all Valkyries can perform Volundr successfully, Compatibility matters”
Buddha suddenly leaned closer again—way too close.
“But don’t worry,” he smirked. “You’ve got to have a bad compatibility potential.”
You stiffened. “W-What?!”
He shrugged casually, grinning teasingly. “I mean with you always being serious, pretty sure no one will be compatible to you~"
Your face return to your default frowning angry face.
“How can you be sure, y-you Arroga-?!”
He raised a finger and gently tapped your forehead, interrupting you.
“Because your soul is noisy.”
“…Excuse me?!”
He laughed. “Strong emotions, big reactions yup such a vibrant soul”
Your face went completely red.
“S-Stop analyzing me like that!”
“But it’s adorable—”
“I WILL HIT YOU!”
You swung your hand instinctively at him. Which he caught effortlessly.
The moment your skin touched his—
A strange sensation surged through your body and your body flashed with green, heart pounded before returning to normal.
Brunhilde’s eyes widened. “this…?”
Buddha froze, his teasing grinned gone.
“…Interesting.” he muttered, eyes flashing with gold and lilac pattern before dissappearing.
You gasped, pulling your hand back, stumbling a step.
“W-What was that?!”
Buddha stared at you for a second before replying.
“That,” he said quietly, “was a partial resonance reaction.”
“You weren’t even trying… yet your soul responded.” he muttered, before grinning down on you, eyes flashing with gold light.
"Looks like my compatability with you cutie is high"
Your heart hammered violently, face turning red.
"w-wait, I thought that we can't do volundr with gods?"
He smirked again but this time, it wasn’t playful.
“Oh yeah.” He leaned down near your ear.
"Thats why your so interesting.”
