Seven days later, Frostwolf City.
"Have you forgotten my order?!"
The chief of the Frostwolf family glared angrily at the middle-aged man kneeling on the ground.
"Brother! These are the medicines we found in the ruins. There are many more scattered in the depths. If we — "
"But how many of the warriors who followed you to explore the ruins have returned?!"
The chief interrupted the man's words with a loud voice. He looked at the golden medicine in the man's hand.
Three days ago, the chief's younger brother had led a team of Frostwolf guards to explore the ruins. They had finally returned today.
They had indeed brought back two bottles of medicine that could cure the strange disease, but at the cost of nearly 13 explorers being affected by the disease.
"Chief! Are you going to watch Ravel and the rest of the people being tortured like this? We are only one step away from obtaining more medicine. "
"The king … His Majesty has ordered that we are not allowed to step into the ruins before we are fully prepared!"
This painful lesson put the chief in a dilemma. There was a high chance that more of his people would be infected by the strange disease if they entered the ruins, and the medicine they brought back was still in short supply.
This was a game of life and death. Now, the chief could only pin his hopes on the king's promise that there was a way to reduce the effects of the infection, but it would take time.
"The king again! That young man has never been to Frostwolf City before. Brother, you are the ruler of this place! "
The middle-aged man simply looked down on the young king. In the eyes of most of the Frostwolf warriors, the order to 'wait' was merely asking them to wait for death.
Just as the chief was about to reprimand the man in front of him, a shivering chill quietly spread from the floor of the hall.
"Your Majesty."
The chief of the Frostwolf family saw the figure standing at the entrance of the hall. It was the king of the Land of Frost.
Cheil's expression was as cold as ever, but this time, the chief saw a hint of impatience on his face.
"Get your soldiers ready. We will officially explore the ruins tomorrow," Cheil said.
"Your Majesty, have you found a way to resist the invasion of those monsters?" The chief of the Frostwolf family asked with uncertainty.
"I don't know, but your second son and my people don't have much time left."
After saying that, Cheil quickly walked out of the Frostwolf Family's City Lord Mansion.
She raised her head and looked at the snowflakes falling from the sky. Soon, the city would welcome a snowstorm.
The surrounding temperature became colder and colder, but Cheil's heart was filled with anxiety.
The leaf of the World Tree in her possession had long since turned to ash, and she had lost contact with the Weave for two whole days!
Sheyle opened the message in his text message.
The Fire Relayer's last message to her was, 'The goods will arrive in about two days. My friend is very tall. You should be able to recognize him at first glance in a crowd. As for what he looks like, I'll keep it a secret for now.'
Don't keep such an important matter a secret! And when her leaves were about to die!
In a moment of desperation, when Cheil wanted to ask about the Fire Relayer's friend's appearance, the leaf of the World Tree had completed its mission. It turned to ash and disappeared in Cheil's hand.
The last confirmed time was seven days later, at noon, at the west city gate.
Cheil put on a hooded cloak and found her warhorse in the stable. Once she got on it, she whipped the reins and galloped toward the west city gate.
… …
In the end, Frostwolf City was still shrouded in a snowstorm. The snowstorm was so strong that not a single pedestrian could be seen on the streets.
Cheil braved the snowstorm and arrived at the west city gate of Frostwolf City. After she identified herself, the soldiers guarding the gate immediately opened the gate.
'Are they really here?'
Shay led his warhorse and scanned his surroundings. The snowstorm had blocked his vision, and some ordinary pedestrians could not even walk in this kind of snowstorm.
She shouted the secret signal that the Fire Relayer had agreed on with her at the forest in front of her.
However, her voice was soon covered by the snowstorm. In the next second, Cheil saw a huge figure in the forest.
'Is that … a human?' Even the Amt Marshal did not have such a terrifying physique.
Shay instinctively placed her hand on the hilt of her sword. She was not sure if her scream had attracted the attention of a snow monster or something like that.
The huge creature slowly walked up to Cheil. When Cheil saw its face under the cloak, her tense heart was instantly replaced by surprise and hostility.
The face of a lion and the hands of a dragon. It was a sinful demon!
Cheil instantly drew her sword.
Even though Cheil had cried a few times over the stories in "Beauty and the Demon" and "This Demon is Not Too Cold".
But to anyone from the Land of Frost, a sinful demon was a very dangerous monster. That was for sure!
Although Frostwolf City was very far from the Demon Realm Fortress, there had been incidents of demons sneaking into the Land of Frost to wreak havoc in history.
Cheil's gaze met the green vertical pupils of the sinful demon. It was Cheil's first time encountering a sinful demon on the battlefield, and she was alone.
"Big Cat! His expression is so fierce! "
Just when the battle was about to break out, a human girl suddenly emerged from the mane on the chest of the sinful demon.
A human girl? Was she captured by the sinful demon?
Before Cheil could figure out what happened, the sinful demon half-knelt and sized her up.
"Are you the Frost Owl?"
The magic power gathered on Cheil's hand disappeared the moment she heard the name, including the hostile expression on her face.
"How … do you know this name?"
After Cheil calmed down, she felt that the sinful demon in front of her was somewhat familiar.
"My name is Zenas. Someone asked me to give this to you." Zenas took out the suitcase Josiah had given her.
"Ze … Zenas, isn't that the actor in" Beauty and the Demon "?"
Cheil didn't have the demeanor of a king at this moment. Instead, she sized up the person in front of her like a little girl.
"That's me."
This wasn't the first time Zenas saw a human so excited, so he was able to face this scene calmly.
"Zenas, sinful demon, the fire-bearer, who is he?" Cheil muttered to herself. But in the next second, Zenas' sharp claws suddenly stretched towards her.
Cheil didn't let down her guard, but she saw the tender green leaf in Zenas' hand.
"'You'll find out more on the Weave.' That's what my client told you," Zenas said.
