I Became the Snow Woman I Made - Chapter 71



71 – Peace and Turbulence (2)

I woke up after closing the book.

I couldn’t leave the little girl alone in a strange land. Because she doesn’t even know

Chandrapale watched my actions incredulously.

“Why is that?”

It seemed that he did not understand at all.

I thought he had changed a bit, but he is still the same as the black knight who is insensitive to emotions.

I sighed coldly.

“I need to meet Paley.”

“Hmm? Why the child?”

A polite response.

I remembered a story I heard from him the other day.

A beginning in the dark.

“It was said that he cut a monster when he was born, and then freed the children who were captured by the black thieves.”

“Yes.”

“Pailey followed you.”

“In the end, that was the case. Since he was the only one left until the end.”

That was a new fact.

I don’t know what my intentions were, but the black knight answered the question faithfully.

“There were a few other kids besides him who wanted to follow me. But after I said a word, they went back.”

“That’s natural.”

How can mere children withstand the black knight’s intimidation? Paley was strange.

In the first place, it was strange that Chandra Fale bothered to take someone along.

It’s not strange to treat it as a burden.

So it meant Paley stayed by his side, enduring far and wide.

I don’t know why.

“What are you thinking about hanging out with him?”

I asked with a question.

His answer was extremely carefree and clear.

“I don’t know. Even if you tell me to go, I’ll follow you, so I guess I just left it at some point.”

“·······.”

It is said that there was no thought from the beginning.

It was truly a black knight’s words.

“Why don’t you pay attention though.”

“I was careful, but I didn’t want to die.”

Chandrapale tilted her head.

“And Paley was an orphan. I had no parents either.”

“So.”

“Human beings are like that. They stand on their own. It is not possible for me to deal with all threats.”

Words that are silently vomited while looking into the air.

That conviction was the Black Knight itself, and it wasn’t too wrong.

In the first place, asking for consideration from him, who is a one-man army, must be over-enthusiasm.

“······· Haa.”

I let out a small sigh.

What the hell is this kind of kid like to follow?

“Okay. You’re right.”

“Hmm?”

“I was born that way, so I live that way forever.”

“…?”

I left the study without saying anything.

Strange glances poke at me from behind, but I didn’t want to send that guy I didn’t understand.

I also needed to talk to Paley alone.

“······We won’t be able to bring him anyway.”

Snow fields are barriers that ordinary people cannot cross, but I have a way.

It didn’t take long, so I just had to go.

Trudging—

We arrived at the first floor after walking down the hallway.

I just found Mishra surrounded by freekes.

“Mishra.”

“Huh?! Ah… It’s Quilière. What’s going on?”

The dragon king’s back is stronger than any other means of transportation.

I couldn’t go on foot once I experienced it.

***

······The other day, not too long after Quilière’s sermon.

─You stay here.

Chandra Pale came east of her in pursuit of her.

Glenver, the closest city to the Ice Mountains. Paley can’t go to the infamous Devil’s Nest located not far away.

─Huh?! Here, stay here? ······Am I alone?

─That’s right. You can’t go to hell

The black knight’s eyes were hidden behind her helmet, but the girl believes that she must have been worried.

As much as it was right, I was convinced.

However, she couldn’t help but feel anxious, so Paley opened her mouth.

─Are you coming to pick me up? When things go well.

The Black Knight followed Quilière with a slight change. It was a very serious, radical development.

The girl didn’t know what he was thinking.

In fact, I hardly ever knew about it.

─·······Yes.

After silence, the black knight answered.

And he went away.

Hee hee hee——!

I felt that I was riding away from the black toma especially quickly.

So Paley was left alone in the strange land of Glenver.

─What can I do?

From noble mtl dot com

There was no ointment at all, and of course I couldn’t adapt.

The only advantage was quite a bit of money.

Chandrapale earned quite a bit of money while working as a Sword Demon.

However, the girl did not know the world well in many ways.

This is due to her lack of experience.

She didn’t even know that having a lot isn’t always good.

“Is this all?”

A girl with a lot of money and no guardian.

The story of her staying at a luxurious inn quickly spread and became a target for villains.

“Yes, yes! It’s all! Really.”

“That’s right…”

Paley’s men, who had figured out her movements, succeeded in surrounding her.

They sighed among themselves and opened the money bag. I was surprised right away.

“Great… Great!”

This is because the amount far exceeded expectations.

Her men gulped.

“This is beyond imagination!”

“How can a kid have all this money?”

She let out a fishy smirk at the thought of getting the hang of it.

Other people’s money or coveted trash. If it had been the Dark Knight, he would have said that and punished him.

However, Paley did not have the strength to fight back.

“Uhhhhh.”

Unlike Chandra Pale, she was an ordinary girl. All she could do was hold back her tears.

“There must be more hidden money…!”

The moment Paley struggled to hold on to the hem of her skirt.

Her men glared at her in unison. Human greed is endless, and it was to wish for more.

“Little boy. Where are the rest? Just be honest. We’re not bad people.”

“Oh no! That’s really it.”

“It can’t be! You can’t say it right!”

First harsh criticism.

In the end, Paley’s eyes were watery. She cried and let go of her anger.

When the world was resentful, a man came to mind.

“·······.”

The man always called himself an underdog.

She was the truth she knew best. She wanted to be strong.

Just like the black knight who swept away the black swords in the old days.

“Really…Really. No more…”

But she didn’t become strong just because she wanted to be strong. The built-up resentment and the piled-up sadness overflowed in a complicated way.

However, her men did not understand her feelings. They reached out to Paley.

──It was that moment.

A roar was heard.

Quaaa!

People’s screams soared, and at the same time, huge shadows were cast on the road.

Everyone who looked up at the sky was shocked.

“······!”

There was a magnificent flying object there.

The existence that looks down on the ground while snorting is a legendary dragon.

Citizens fall into despair just by the appearance of the dragon, but soon their gaze shifts to a woman.

“·······.”

A woman with a pale color looking down at the ground with her cold eyes. Her mysterious atmosphere attracted everyone’s attention like a magnet.

A series of shocks.

While everyone was dazed, only Paili recognized her identity.

“Sister Quilière…!”

An unforgettable figure who even defeated the Black Catastrophe in front of her eyes.

Quilière looked back and forth between the crying girl and the awkwardly standing men, then frowned.

As she beckons, her dragon descends.

─────!

A roar and flapping of wings brought strong winds, and people covered their ears.

The same goes for the bad guys.

“Kuhhh… What is this all of a sudden…?”

The moment they opened their eyes, Quilière was standing in front of them.

Cold eyes like crystal blue.

The men hesitated.

“What… What are you! What are you-“

“Give me that.”

She walked gracefully.

A cold gaze touched her seized purse.

“That.”

A cool order, as if he had already recognized the situation.

Men were at a loss for words at her beauty, beauty and arrogance. Those who had been in a daze immediately protested.

“No, nonsense! This is our stuff—”

“Lies.”

Quilière’s voice shook sharply like a forged blade.

She narrowed her brows and raised her mana.

“Don’t lie in front of me.”

Sueuu-!

The exhaled breath surges without hesitation.

The villains, who opened their eyes wide, were unable to respond and their legs froze.

“Uh, uh, uhh!”

“This… What is this!”

“Huh.”

That’s enough for mere bullies.

Quilliere snorted and took her purse back. Turning around, he created an additional ice barrier.

Kurreung—!

“Reflection there.”

“Uh, uh uh…!”

All of a sudden, the imprisoned men banged on the wall.

Quilière approached Paley ignoring her. Standing at a distance, she blinked her eyes at her wrathful development.

“Are you okay?”

A cold voice and a bad word.

Paley, who flinched and trembled, cautiously looked up at Quilière.

“······Sister.”

Quillier was worried that she might be frightened, but the emotion in Paley’s eyes was not fear.

Rather strangely, it tickled me… It was longing.

Wiping her tears, she conveyed her earnest sincerity.

“You’re so cool…”

“·······.”

Flinch.

This time, Quilière trembled.

·······.

Leaving the villains frozen, I came with Paley to her inn.

It was to have a detailed conversation in a place where you can calm down.

“Sister. Sister, sit down on the bed!”

There was only one bed in a fairly luxurious room.

Because of its size, there was no need to sit alone.

“Sit down. Come here too.”

“Yes…? Oh, no. I’m fine.”

“All right, sit down.”

“Kyaa-“

I took her hand and sat her next to me.

Useless rejection was my specification.

As she hesitated to take her seat, her eyes fell on her wrist.

“I’m hurt.”

“Yes? Ah…”

There were open cuts on her delicate arms.

It seemed that he was injured by gangsters. I have a child because I have nothing to do.

I clicked my tongue and grabbed Paley’s wrist.

“Wow, wow! Why is that… Ah!”

Hwa ah ah ─

Activation of Healing.

The white light permeated the wound, returning it to its original state.

The dazed girl’s eyes shone brightly.

“Sister is amazing! Do you know how to do something like this?”

“Yeah. It’s no big deal.”

I felt burdened by that innocent compliment, so I answered silently.

Since it wasn’t a big wound, the magic power consumption was negligible. I let go of her arm and straightened her posture.

Now we need to start a conversation.

“Chandra Pale came to visit me.”

“Yes? Ah! Did you meet the old man?!”

“Yes. Rarely helpful.

Paley muttered with a serious face.

“I see…”

Maybe her biggest concern right now is him. I said it because I could guess the reason.

“Why are you following Chandra Pale?”

“Yes?”

“Tell me more about what you’re thinking, if you don’t mind.”

I was thinking of approaching her psychology.

Paley rolled her eyes for a moment, then nodded her head.

“You already know how I met you…?”

“Yes.”

“At that time, I was too young and weak, so I guess I just wanted to be with someone strong…”

A calm reminiscence followed, telling her the circumstances of her past. Throughout the story, the girl’s pupils floated as if looking at a distant mountain.

I’m not old enough, but I wonder if there are too many things in the past to look back on.

“·······It wasn’t a bad decision. We survived until now because of one thing or another. Anyway, that’s how I felt at first, but now I’m not sure…”

When the retrospective came to an end, her expression became ambiguous.

Literally, the face of not knowing.

Emotions that cannot be expressed can be affection or romance.

“·······.”

I felt strange and strange.

No matter what, to think that there is someone who thinks of the character I created.

Although it is regrettable that it is a one-way street.

“Roughly. If you’re asking how I feel.”

“I see.”

“Yes. Thanks for listening. But why did you ask? You don’t have to know how I feel…”

For some reason, Chandrapale said she wanted to stay in the castle for a while. If I kick her out, she won’t care about her any more.

After a brief agony, I made a decision.

“Do you want to come to my castle?”

“…Last name?”

“I have my castle in the snowfield.”

“Yes!?”

I don’t know if it’s her black knight, but she’s no threat.

Paley was delighted, but then she sulked and lowered her head.

“Thank you so much for the offer, and I really want to go, but… I’m just an ordinary girl. I don’t have prejudice, but I don’t have the strength to live in the Devil’s Realm…”

Her greatest challenge in the Ice Mountains, and the reason why her Chandra Pale had to leave her behind, her harsh climate.

It was as expected, and there was nothing wrong with it. But there was no way.

“It’s okay.”

I opened the handbag I had brought with me and took out an outfit.

A very cute garment with a combination of snow-white colors and sleet-like dull tones.

「Snow Rabbit Coat」

It’s another costume I took just in case when I came out with the vampire suit, and it’s something I had forgotten about until recently because I had nothing to use.

It came to mind when the Dark Knight was talking about the Demonic World.

“Wow! Cute! What is this outfit?”

“A gift. You take it.”

“·······Yes?”

Paley tilted her head innocently.

It’s a precious thing after all, but it’s useless to me at all.

A snow rabbit coat, a special costume equipped with unique abilities. That ability was called ‘cold immunity’.

It’s one of Snow Woman’s basic abilities, so it’s useless to me.

No, actually, the setting itself for the snow woman was borrowed from this costume.

“If you wear this, you will be able to go to the snowfield.”

“Yes? Yes?!”

There is only one condition to wear, ‘a heart as pure as snow.’

I don’t know, but Paley would have passed without incident. The girl gaped and opened her mouth.

.

.

After giving a rather coercive gift to Paley, who refrained from saying things like ‘It looks expensive’ and ‘It’s okay’.

I flew up with her on her Mishra, which was waiting at her entrance.

“Kyaaagh!”

The girl flinched in fear from before the ride, after the ride, and even the moment she took flight.

However, after flying for a while, she seems to have gotten used to it and smiled in the cool breeze.

“Wow, high, high! And cool!”

“So.”

A cute reaction that is different from the blunt Crusader and the Black Knight.

I watched her with her little smile fading. After traveling inland, the dragon king eventually reached the ice mountain range.

The owners of the mountain were wary of intruders.

Kiyaaa!

Kieh–!

Loud and grotesque cries reached this high expanse. Paley shuddered.

“uuu I’m not prejudiced, but this is a bit… Uh, sister!”

“Hold on. We’re almost there.”

“…That’s right?”

The only factor in the trembling body is fear.

The cold did not intervene there.

The costume looked well applied. With this, the last concern was neatly addressed.

Mishra rushes forward at high speed, and soon arrives at a pure white snowy field.

“Wow… Wow!”

A paradise of unparalleled beauty if you can fully enjoy it. Paley let out a cheer as if she had never shivered.

***

······On the other hand, the demonic landscape on the other side of the snowfield─ landfill.

The Black Calamity Mahabharata was struggling with the Obelisk.

Gooooo——!

Terrible screams and incomprehensible light beams continuously blanketed the gloomy world.

Those who want to steal and those who want to protect.

Baktu, risking his very existence, spurred cautiously and fiercely.

──It’s been such a long time.

The game is decided.

The result was a draw.

Calamity roared in rage, then wriggled out of control.

Kuaaa!

He succeeded in gaining divine power without disappearing.

However, it was not enough to control the force because it could not subdue the obelisk.

The entangled divine powers roared as if flowing backwards from within the disaster.

─────!

It is dangerous to leave it as it is.

A hastily judged disaster released half of the absorbed power. The incomprehensible energy had reached a certain level beyond the limits of the world.

At once, the whole world in the Far West began to turn upside down.

Kururureureung──!

The shock didn’t stop there.

The outstretched wave ran like an electric current and went beyond the landfill.

From the southern part of the continent, including the desert area, from the central part where the Imperial Territory was located to the northern part where the Religion was located… Minute divine power spread across the continent.

The power of the collapsed command system swayed without control, polluting the soil and unfortunate creatures, and mutations occurred naturally.

─────!

Animals, creatures, insects and beasts have undergone bizarre transformations.

If Quillier had seen them, he would have recognized their identities at once.

Named monsters that are born by touching divine power.

Miscellaneous gods.

─·······!

Those mass-produced things thought with feeble reason while establishing their own selves.

There is something behind us.

A primordial monster with powers of a different class and dimension.

From noble mtl dot com

Black Calamity.

Kieheek——!

By instinctive fear,

The monsters fled inland.

It was the beginning of a great uproar.
