The man behind the counter took the coin, "You aren't from here, right? I never saw your face."
Cecilia lowered her voice, "My husband and I were looking for my sister. Her name is Mikaela Montgomery. We separated after the conflict from local and bandits, ten years ago.
All the clues I gather pointed that my sister was still living here. That's why I sneak up from that terrible forest to find her."
Max try his best to not laugh. How come a fifteen years old girl say something like that? Besides, her improvise act never failed to entertain him.
"That's dangerous route. You were lucky to not meet with wild animal or robbed by bandits! Anyway, you look younger, Madam. I thought you were still a teenager." The man said.
"Well, I heard it a lot. But, did you know where is my sister? Mikaela Montgomery. Twenty-five. She must be looked like me."
The man shook his head. "Never saw any woman around your age. But, I think you should prepare for the w
Both of the young couple left with mixed feeling. But, they were thinking about the same thing.Is it possible to a man for living forever?Cecilia doubted that she will understand about the concept of immortality. But, she was reborn for the second times. So, perhaps, immortality is possible…"I can't believe it." Max said when they were walking and planning to go back to Lancia's house."Me, too. But, we have to think about the possibility. They won't be that afraid if the bandits were just a bunch of ordinary men. The people preferred not to fight because they know they'll lose with someone who got the blessing.""Then, we should do teleported them to the other place."Cecilia's eyes widened, "How many people you can move at once?""Ten, I guess. Or perhaps, eleven. I'm not sure. But, we can just take the leader or his vice to talk. If they can't, then we can kill them.""What? Killing people doesn't solve anythin
"Chili! Where have you been?!" Max cried when he found his fiancé standing on the place they separated. "I was looking you for an hour!"She blinked twice and grab his hand, "Max! I need to tell you something.""What happened?" He asked before Cecilia tell him what happened in the strange yet nice wooden house.Max need a minute to proceed the information. For a man like Max, Protector of Frozen Land almost sound like a protagonist in children's bed stories. He never believed something he can't see with his own eyes.But, he believes with her eyes. If Cecilia told him that she saw a world which made from chocolates, he will believe it with all of his heart.He rubs his chin for a second before said, "Then, I should've asked someone who knows better about this matter.""Who?""The Holy Priest. Want to come with me? He might be in the temple."
The young wolf man look disappointed when he arrived at the temple, deep into the frozen forest.He already knew that it must be abandoned and deserted. But, he never expected that the temple was ruined. The scattered stone were everywhere and covered in snow.He was staring at the ruin in indefinite time. They said that human was weak. Without a help from the protector, they are nothing.But, now, the young wolf man thinking if the reality was the other way around.He let out a heavy sighed before walk into the town.Even considered as the weakest one, the young wolf man still stronger than an ordinary human.He won't lose in combat with themBut, he can't win if he had a fight with the man who get his father's blessing.The protector of this frozen island, once, called as Aslanian. An entity lower than God but higher than human. He got a job to protecting this frozen land.In the past, A
"Okay. It's finally done!" Mary said to all the maids who help her to pack the package for the Icicle's people.Cecilia was the one bought the items and all the maids in the house help her to wrap it in a box.That's why, they only need two hours to create more than sixty packages."Thank you for your hard work, everyone. Sorry for making you work until this late. Please take a rest for now. Thank you." Cecilia said after she put some 'makeup' on her face. "Now, I will tell him to get ready."Max was waiting in Duke's study room. His face beamed when he saw her entered the room, "Chili, have you done?""Yes, Maxwee. We can go now."Duke raised his left brow. His expression became colder, and he tightens his grip on the white tea cup he was holding on, "Chili and Maxwee? What is that?""Father, our nicknames were so cute, right? I really like it." Cecilia grin widely.Max smirked at him, "Why? Do our superior Duke ne
“Trespasser?” Desmond's brows raised when heard his underling's reports about a young couple who trespassing the town to giving some packages to the citizen.Gregorio shook his head in disbelief, “That's impossible. Why did they do something troublesome like that? The guards on the forest didn't see any suspicious people, either.”Joshua Howard, the young man who spying on Cecilia and Max, didn't have any courage to saw directly on their eyes. “I'm not lying, My Lord. They are a young couple with acne on their face. Wearing a black rope to blend into the darkness. I lost them because they were disappeared into the forest without a trace.”Desmond let out a heavy sigh and look bored, “What is the contain of the box?”“Blanket, a pair of shoes, sweater, equipment for knitting such as needle and yarn. But, what's weirder was this thing. Some strange seeds. I take these from the homeless people who gatheri
Callisto's eyes widened when he saw Christian, who opened a box in his counter. He looks so excited when waving his hand to that young wolf man, “Good morning, Boy! Come here! I want you to see this!”“Good morning, Sir.” He said with low voice. His blue eyes saw a package of clothes, yarn, and seeds on it.“Someone sent this to everyone in this town! I heard some ruckus on the outside, and then I found this on the table.” Christian turned his gaze to his guest, “Do you think, this is coming from the protector? I mean, about our last conversation…”Callisto didn't answer. He knew that the protector didn't do this. Foxter was helping him to create some blankets for everyone on this island. Itnot done yet.But, the young wolf man know that he don't need to continue it anymore. Callisto can't help but feeling down and helpless...He really want to help them. But how?“Do you kno
“Cecilia, lower your hip!” Armano said when his daughter tried to attack him with her rapier. “Your left side is defenseless!”She didn't answer and keep swing her sword to his direction. Her movement getting better, but she is still slow at read on her enemy's movement and make several mistakes.But, for beginners, she is doing well.Max, who watched them duel in the training ground, sighed. It's already three hours, but they're still enjoying themselves, practice so hard without take some rest and ignore his presence. As if, they were living in their own world.Armano, who using a wooden sword, thrust her weapon and throw it away from her hand before fall to the ground.Cecilia wipe her sweat from the forehead, panting her breath. “Not… Bad. One… more, please, Father!”“It's enough for today. You
Joshua Howard can't believe his eyes. It's so unusual to see that all the people in the town was bringing a bowl and lining up in front of Christian's restaurants.His eyes shifted to a wooden sign, with neat handwriting, hanging on the outside of the restaurant's windows. 'FREE SOUP' is what they wrote on the sign.Joshua knitted his brows and wondering if he should report this to Desmond or not.He chose to sneak a peek to the inside of that place. His eyes widened when he saw the mysterious young couple who vanished in the middle of the forest.Now, he frowned and feeling suspicious with their motive.“Hey! Don't cut the line!” Said someone behind his back.No one know his identity since Joshua wearing long black rope with hoodie. His mouth covered with mask too.Joshua bowed and apologized before he run
