Asgard is the home realm of the Norse Gods and the Valkyries and one of the nine realms of the World Tree Yggdrasil.
History[]
The realm of Asgard held a exhibition for the young members of the Three Factions and other mythological factions to present their ideas so that the winner could take the pavilion location that Asgard was offering. The exhibition was attacked by the Norse Goddess Hel, although she was defeated and the exhibition was concluded.[1]
In Volume 21, during the Evil Dragon War, Asgard was attack by Qlippoth, spearheaded by the two Evil Dragons; Apophis and Aži Dahāka, who lead the legendary Imperial Beast; the 666 (Trihexa), to Asgard to lay waste to it. The Norse Gods, the souls of Valhalla and the Valkyries rallied to defend the Asgard but were slowly getting outmatched by the might of the Imperial Beast and the two Evil Dragons. With the help of the Three Factions, Team DxD and the other mythologies, the residents of Asgard were able to defend long enough to force Qlippoth to retreat.
In Volume 25, Asgard hosted the Azazel Cup match between Team Red Dragon Emperor of the Blazing Truth and Team Leisure of the Kings.
