As he calmly sips his coffee, Ozpin watched his students toil in the dangerous forest through the monitor in his office.
Glynda on the other hand was outraged at the scene she saw through the monitor. Jaune Arc, '' the boy with the fake transcriptions '' was getting his Aura unlocked by Pyrrha. This was not acceptable.
'' Professor, this clearly shows those transcriptions he brought were fake ! '' Glynda complained, this boy did not belong here, and she does not like people who uses lies to enter into positions they don't belong.
'' I already know that Glynda. '' Ozpin said in a calm voice as he takes another sip from his coffee mug.
'' Then why have you let him into beacon ? '' Glynda was utterly confused, why is this boy who has no vague idea of what aura is, doing in a place like Beacon.
'' That I can not tell you at the moment. ''
'' Why? ''
'' Because something interesting is going to happen soon. '' Ozpin said as he pointed to his monitor.
Glynda turned to the monitor that displayed a live footage captured by one of the numerous cameras installed in the Emerald forest. The footage she saw was caused some concerns, as it showe
0d two students namely Ruby and Wiess being surrounded by a pack of Beowulf lead by an alpha.
'' Should we go and help them? '' Glynda asked concerned about the safety of the two students. If they leave now, they could still be saved.
'' That won't be necessary. '' Ozpin said not the least about their safety. '' Help is already there. ''
Glynda watched in horror as a group of Beowulf leaped towards the defenseless girls. Just then out of no where a giant spear made of ice impaled all the Beowulf in its path. The ice spear ended their pathetic life by destroying them from the inside as numerous sharp icicles erupted from inside them.
The camera turned to the side as it showed Olaf emerging from the tall bushes. He flashed a smile at the two girls, and was then tackled to the ground by a red blur. As it turns out, tge red blur was Ruby.
Despite the wholesome moment, there was still an alpha beowulf in their vicinity. '' They do know that there is still an Alpha nearby right? ''
'' I don't think that would be a problem. '' Ozpin turned the camera to see Havard with the decapitated head of the Alpha.
'' How did he killed it? '' Glynda asked.
Ozpin showed her a replay, ten seconds back. It showed a growling Alpha, glaring at Olaf with hatred. Then from its side, like the aparition of a ghost, he appeared. The Alpha turned it's head only for its vision to turn dark.
Havard delivered a rising slash, with his sharp blade the Alpha's neck stood no chance. The blade separated the head from its body.
Glynda reaction was priceless, Ozpin looked at her with amusement.
'' Just what happened ? ''
'' That, Glynda is what a Viking from the Wolf clan can do. These merciless sword masters are freared by many as Butchers. '', that is what Ozpin explained.
'' Why are they called butchers professor? '' Glynda asked, these young vikings have really caught her curiousity.
'' The freezing northern region's of Hedninger, was the bloodies part in the entire landmass. It was called '' the land of the dead ''. ''
The title of the land gave creepy vibes but Glynda listened on letting Ozpin continue.
'' It was so called so because, after centuries of wars and blood shed, the land was drenched in so much blood, the rivers itself bleed with blood red water. The land was littered with corpses of men, women, children and war animals. '' This horrified Glynda, how can such a place exist. By the sound of it, the Great war between the humans and Faunus paled in comparison to their wars. Just what had caused it.
'' And from '' the land of the dead '', Only two clans survived. '' Ozpin looked at the screen, which was split into half one showed Havard and the other showed Tor.
'' Tor's clan and Havard's clan. Tor's clan were filled with inhuman monsters, that seemed to have crawled out straight from the deepest pits of the abyss. And Havard's clan, a clan with a wolf pack mentality, and whose blades were so fierce that all their enemies who dared to challenge them were butchered like animals. ''
Glynda was both scared and amazed at the information given to her.
'' What about Olaf and Ragnar ? is there something I should know about them? ''
Ozpin took another sip from his mug, savouring the deliciousness of his coffee. '' Regarding Olaf, no information was given. Other than being a war orphan and a Raider, nothing else was given to me. ''
'' What about Ragnar? ''
'' Ragnar... he is a very special case. ''
'' Why is that so? ''
'' You see Glynda, the Vikings are a very superstitious people, they believed that the spirits of beasts roamed their lands... sometimes these beasts appear in the battlefield. These are called Berserkers. These animalistic warriors, are well known for their fearlessness, and brutality. Once they go on a killing spree, there is no stopping them. I even wonder how Tor's clan managed to tame an entire clan of Berserkers. ''
Back to the screen, it showed Ragnar, savagely mauled a beowulf. He then released an animalistic roar that, even the beowulf had to take a step back.
Glynda was caught off guard by Ozpin's last sentence. '' Pardon me professor, I did not hear that right, did you say '' tame '' them? ''
'' Ah! yes, they did tamed them, I was honestly surprised to see a Berserker with such high self control for violence. ''
That puzzled Glynda, how did Ragnar posses any self control? he started a brawl in the bullocks, and was even going to start another brawl at the auditorium, just because Yang called him short.
Ozpin chuckled at her expression, '' You might find him prideful, foul mouthed, and a barbaric youth, but unlike other berserkers who would happily maul someone to death just for staring at them, Ragnar is very very civilized. ''
Glynda was having a hard time agreeing to that, but hearing that other Berserkers would kill someone for just staring at them, she had to agree that Ragnar was indeed very civilized. ''
'' So then what do you mean, by saying that Tor's clan had tamed them? '' Glynda then asked.
'' If you have realised Glynda, you can clearly see that Ragnar is terrified of Tor. ''
Glynda agreed with that, even she was intimidated by him. He has that aura of a merciless and a cold hearted dictator that does not want things to go against his plans and will
Ozpin continued, '' You see Glynda, Berserkers do not really fear anything, not even death. And the very reason that an entire clan of Berserkers was tamed by Tor's clan proved that something happened, Tor's clan did something to them that it terrified them more that death. And I don't really want to know what they did. ''
What kind of inhumane things did they do, that even these fearless warriors fear them more that death itself. This was something Glynda does not want to know.
Ozpin continued, '' But you have to remember this Glynda... these young vikings are not the strongest. There are hundreds more stronger and scarier than them. '' He then focused on Ruby and Olaf chasing after a Nevermore who had both the Schnee heiress and Havard in its giant talons.
'' But they can grow stronger, and if we use our cards well, the entire viking population of Hedninger will send their aid to us against her. But for that we need time. ''
