Chapter 1

Day 1

The calls of multiple birds awoke the male to the new day that was dawning around him. Sitting up from where he lay, the male took in his surroundings.

He was on the shores of a creek that ran through a gully that was surrounded on all sides by a forest of trees that he couldn't see very far into.

"Well, this is nice," he said sarcastically to himself, turning suddenly when the trees rustled behind him. His eyes nearly bulged out of his head when Asa Akira walked out of the trees wearing a dress and started across the grass to him. "And it gets better," he noted with a smile.

"And I haven't even shown you the weapons I had made for you," Asa said causing the smile to drop from the male's face. "No longer happy to see me, are you?"

"My mood has been dampened somewhat," the male replied sourly.

"Pity,"Loki remarked. "Perhaps we can do something about that later. By the way, where are your pants?"

"My pants?" the man asked before he looked down. For the first time since he had woken up, he realised he was stark naked. And he didn't look how he remembered.

He was taller, to start with. Where before he had been about 170 cm tall, he was now somewhere between 190 and 200 cm. He had the same wiry build as he had before he died though his physique was more defined and felt stronger than he ever had. But the most distinct feature that he could see was the large tattoo that he had on his right pec. It was a large, black wolf, stalking towards his sternum.

"What's with the wolf?" the man asked as he ran a finger over the tattoo.

"It is my brand," Loki replied simply. "It signifies that you are my champion in this world."

"Right," the man said. "I assume all champions are branded in the same place but with a different symbol?"

"Correct," Loki confirmed.

"Good to know," the man noted. "Anything you want to tell me about my body?"

"I thought you'd never ask," Loki said, smiling impishly. "And before we continue, I think you should get used to your new name."

"Why do I need a new name?" the man asked. "What's wrong with my old one?"

"That name belongs to a dead man. You are a new man," Loki retorted as if speaking to a simpleton. "I hope you like Jack Wolfson."

"Jack Wolfson," the man parroted, testing out the name and how it sounded. "I suppose it could be worse.

"Indeed it could," Loki agreed. "Now, as you have already noticed, you are both taller and more defined than in your previous life. And you have noticed your champion's mark."

"Kind of hard to miss," Jack pointed out. "Don't you think?"

"As I was saying, you have noticed your champion's mark. Now, to what you haven't noticed," Loki said. "Your physiology is unique. Visually, you will be quickly identified as a half-elf and for the most part, that is accurate. But, there are a few differences."

"Such as?" Jack questioned as he reached up to feel if he had pointed ears; which he did. They were slightly longer than human ears and had the recognisable point of an elf.

"You have fangs,"Loki declared to Jack's surprise. "Don't worry, they're nothing spectacular. You won't be tearing out throats with them but they are prominent enough to be noticed.

"Right," Jack said, calming slightly.

"The next thing is less visual. Your body has been, upgraded, shall we say," Loki revealed. "All champions have forms crafted to them by their patron that are superior to the majority of species that inhabit this world. Yours is not different. You are faster, stronger and have more stamina than most. You heal faster and have better senses as well."

"Well that sounds like a good thing," Jack said rhetorically. "I don't suppose you tossed him some telekinesis as well?"

"No, you're not that lucky," Loki replied. "But you are effectively immortal. Old age won't be killing you so who knows what you'll be able to learn in your time here."

"I can work with that," Jack said happily. "Don't suppose I get some clothes out of this deal?"

"You think I would let my champion walk around naked?" Loki accused.

"Well I am still standing here naked and I'm sure someone would find me walking around naked entertaining," Jack proclaimed.

"True," Loki said. "But yes, I do have a few other things for you. Remember how I mentioned weapons?"

"I do," Jack replied. "Weapons are definitely a requirement for this job."

"Hmm," Loki hummed as she crouched down and pushed her hand into the grass and dirt. Pulling upwards, she lifted the lid off a hidden storage chest that was buried in the ground. "I'd say pick your poison but I already did."

"Looks like you got it right too," Jack noted as he looked down into the chest. Laid out carefully, were an assortment of weapons that Jack, in his previous life, liked to call his favourites. First was a sword, a Katana. "This is incredible," Jack said as he lifted the sword and drew it slightly, examining the blade.

"I'd be careful with that," Loki advised. "The blade is incredibly sharp and the sword itself is magical. I'd keep it safe as it will be your only defence against some of the dangers of this world."

"Right," Jack responded, sheathing the blade and setting it to the side. Reaching into the chest, Jack pulled out a pair of Sai. "Nice."

"I thought those were an interesting choice," Loki said. "Very useful but they will also make you recognisable."

"A small price to pay," Jack replied, setting the Sai beside the katana. "Besides, being recognised could be entertaining."

"You're learning," Loki said in a pleased tone, seeing Jacking reaching into the chest once again. "I know you'll like the next one."

"You're not wrong," Jack agreed as he examined the Tom Brown Track #1, rolling it over in his hands. "I had one of these in my past life. Though I think this one will see use beyond decoration."

"A more than likely outcome," Loki proclaimed.

"Hmm," Jack sounded, placing the knife aside and lifting out a recurve bow that was almost as large as a longbow. Standing up, Jack took a stance and gently tested the draw weight of the bow. "Wow," he exclaimed as he gently let off the tension so as not to damage the bow.

"Indeed," Loki concurred. "I am particularly proud of that bow."

"What's it made of?" Jack asked as he looked over the bow.

"Ironwood," Loki answered.

"Sounds strong," Jack commented distractedly.

"It is," Loki confirmed. "Unlike the Ironwood on Earth, Ironwood in this world is practically unbreakable. Even your sword couldn't cut through it. Which makes your bow very useful."

"What about the bowstring?" Jack asked.

"Steelwire," Loki said. "Enchanted to have the same strength as Ironwood."

"Nice," Jack said as he set the bow down, looking forward to getting a chance to using it. He had never been much of an archer but he had enjoyed the odd trip out with mates.

"The arrows in the three quivers are nothing special. I'm sure the fletcher I took them from won't notice their missing," Loki said with a mischievous smile.

"I wouldn't count on that," Jack muttered but said nothing more as he looked into the chest once again. "Always a nice knife to have," Jack observed as he lifted a Ka-Bar into the open and looked it over. "I see I have some spares."

"Though all your weapons are of the finest quality, I thought you might like having a few spares, in case of loss or you wanting to give them out," Loki said. "The chest contains a spare set of Sai, 8 more Tracker knives and 9 more Ka-Bars. I was forbidden granting you a second sword or bow due to their magical natures."

"That's fine," Jack said. "I'll just make sure not to lose them."

"Excellent idea," Loki said as she moved a short distance away and opened another buried chest. "And in this one we have clothes and the like."

"It's about time," Jack stated, setting the knife he had been holding down and moving to stand next to Loki. "What have we got?"

"The usual clothes of this period. Stout boots, socks, pants, shirts and a pair of armoured bracers for your arms." Loki responded. "Though there are one or two unique items."

"No shit," Jack blurted out. "Is that an Akubra?"

"It is and you'll find it fits perfectly. Beneath it is a Driza-Bone riding coat," Loki informed her/his champion. "You'll definitely stand out in these."

"I don't think I am going to care," Jack said, happy with the clothing options before his eye caught something. "Hey, what's that?"

"That, is called a surcoat," Loki answered. "You wear it over your clothes to give you that little bit of extra protection but under your coat."

"Ok, but what is that symbol on it?" Jack asked, confused. The symbol he was looking at consisted of a white wolf stalking to the left above a pair of crossed gold katana, all set on a shield of forest green.

"That, is your coat of arms," Loki replied. "I took the liberty of creating you one."

"I'm no knight," Jack argued. "Only knights have heraldry."

"You're my champion. My representative here," Loki countered evenly. "That gives you the right to wear it. And you will wear it, I command it."

"Whatever you say," Jack found himself saying before he had thought of a response.

"That's better," Loki said. "Now, you have two surcoats in the chest. One is a darker brown while the other is white. I'm sure you can work out which is more formal."

"Yeah," Jack deadpanned.

"Good," Loki continued. "I suggest you wear the surcoats at all time as they will offer you a good level of protection against most weapons."

"It's magic cloth?" Jack asked disbelievingly.

"Of course not," Loki said. "It's just a fabric garment that conceals a shirt of chainmail made of the same metal as your other weapons. Armour without appearing to be armour."

"Sneaky," Jack noted.

"I'd like to think so," Loki retorted before suddenly dropping and sweeping Jack's legs out from under him. As Jack crashed spread-eagled to the ground, Loki recovered to stand above Jack.

"What the hell!" Jack exclaimed as he looked up. "What was that for?"

"I got tired of talking," Loki stated as she/he reached for where her dress was secured at her waist. Releasing it, she shrugged her shoulders and let it drop to the ground, leaving her standing above her champion in all her naked glory.

"Umm," Jack uttered, unable to think of anything better.

"Shut up," Loki said as she dropped to her knees between Jack's legs and leaned forwards. "I said I was tired of talking," she reminded before grasping his hardening cock in one hand and engulfing the head of it in her mouth.

"Oh my god," Jack got out as his patron worked her mouth and tongue over his cock. He looked down to watch her and was surprised at how big his cock was. It was a definite improvement over what he had had in his past life and he was looking forward to enjoying it. He watched Asa (he couldn't think of her as Loki at that moment) suck his cock until it was rock hard before pulling off. "Goddamn that felt good."

"Wait till the next part," Asa said as she crawled up his body and positioned him at her slick, velvet opening. Jack held his breath as she slowly lowered herself onto him, groaning out his pleasure as he penetrated her deeper and deeper until their pubic bones met. Asa paused their for a moment before lifting herself up again, dragging her pussy up his shaft until only the head remained inside her. Smiling wickedly down at her champion, Asa clenched her pussy tight and lowered herself once again, feeling the intense pleasure she was receiving and knowing that the man below her was feeling the same, if not more. "Are you still alive?" She asked idly once he was fully seated inside her again.

"Fucked if I know," Jack stammered out, basking in the sensations his cock was receiving. Nothing in his previous life could compare to what he was feeling now.
