Isekai Adventure in the Dimensional Cube-Chapter 1175 - 863: Cleria, Death_2

Watching this young girl gritting her teeth and pushing forward, Reiger wasn’t sure if he felt admiration or was simply dumbfounded.

In such an ultra-low temperature environment, even a seasoned Swordsman wouldn’t dare to plunge into this blizzard recklessly, yet here Cleria was, an ordinary person, wrapped in a few pieces of clothing, running into the storm.

It’s fine if she didn’t encounter any monsters, but once she did, it would basically be over for her.

Cleria couldn’t possibly not understand these facts, yet she continued moving forward, gritting her teeth, seemingly unconcerned even without a destination.

It seemed like she just wanted to get as far away from Urvashi as possible.

"Interesting."

Reiger was intrigued.

"Who exactly are you? And what exactly do you want to do?"

With such thoughts, Reiger decided to keep following her.

But as he followed, Reiger found he couldn’t keep up anymore.

"Hey, ahead is..."

He blurted out almost reflexively, but it was too late.

"Ah!"

With a scream, Cleria, who was burying her head and moving forward in the blizzard, fell.

This woman had no idea there was a cliff right in front of her.

So, she smoothly stepped into the void and fell off the cliff.

"Splash!"

Soon, there was the sound of water below the cliff, making Reiger’s expression change slightly.

"There’s actually water down there?"

With this thought flashing through his mind, Reiger unhesitatingly activated teleportation magic and disappeared from his place.

When he reappeared, Reiger was already at the bottom of the cliff, witnessing the scene below.

Below was actually a glacier.

In the midst of the howling blizzard, many ice chunks and even icebergs were drifting in this glacier, yet it hadn’t completely frozen over.

The current was so rapid that even the sides of the cliff were smooth from being washed by the water, with rocks occasionally breaking off the walls, getting carried away by the torrent, disappearing in an instant.

In such a rapid current, the fate of a small girl can practically be compared to those rocks.

At the very least, Reiger couldn’t see Cleria’s figure anymore.

"Goodness, that girl is really unlucky."

Reiger frowned tightly, then without hesitation, rushed into the glacier, charging through the water with a splash.

If anyone had witnessed this scene, they would surely curse and think Reiger was out of his mind, right?

In weather colder than -50°C, in a blizzard, to rush straight into a glacier without any protective measures is simply tempting fate.

Reiger was, of course, not tempting fate.

With the [Pioneer of the Sun] in his being, Reiger had very strong resistance to extreme cold, unless it was something as terrible as Absolute Zero; otherwise, ordinary cold environments couldn’t really affect him.

Moreover, after exploring for such a long time, Reiger surprisingly found that his adaptability to some environments had become extremely high.

For instance, he could now breathe underwater and could naturally stand on the surface of the water without activating any magic or using any methods.

At first, Reiger was somewhat surprised by this condition.

But soon enough, he understood what it was all about.

This was the blessing of the fairies.

Just like Woodworth of the Tusk Clan in the Fairy Country Lostbelt, who, under the blessing of the great fairy, even Reiger found it hard to break through his defense and hurt him, Reiger also had the blessing of a certain fairy, gaining some of their power.

This is one of the effects of the [Oath Stake], and it’s something the self-proclaimed witch queen always sneered at, saying "it’s something I wouldn’t want".

Since acquiring this blessing, Reiger hadn’t really felt its effects until he later discovered some clues, including this ability to stand on water and breathe underwater.

Armed with this blessing and resistance to cold, Reiger plunged straight into the frighteningly cold glacier.

"[Life Perception]."

Reiger deployed search magic and quickly discovered Cleria’s whereabouts, swiftly approaching her direction.

Because of the rapid current, in no time at all, Cleria had been washed very far away.

When Reiger found her, the girl was already completely unconscious, without even a struggle, just swept along by the current, dragged to the bottom of the water.

Seeing this scene, Reiger rushed forward without a second thought.

No choice.

"Rumble!"

Amidst the surging water sounds and roaring, at the bottom of the glacier, there was actually a huge vortex swirling.

Cleria was swept into the vortex along with the water current and sank directly down.

"...You really are unlucky."

With that thought, Reiger also charged into the center of the vortex, disappearing beneath the glacier.

"Rumble!"

Amidst the intense rumbling sound, the vortex slowly began to disappear at this moment.

After a while, the water settled completely, becoming calm without a single ripple.

...

"Boom!"

In the dark space, amidst the violent sound of splashing water, two silhouettes fell in one after the other.

"Whoosh!"

As soon as he entered here, Reiger immediately accelerated like a bullet, rushing towards the falling Cleria, finally catching her in his arms.

"So cold..."

Holding Cleria in his arms, Reiger frowned tightly.

He could clearly feel that Cleria’s body temperature seemed completely lost, her body was ice-cold, as if turned into a corpse, utterly devoid of warmth.

"[Dry]."

Without hesitation, Reiger activated life magic, squeezing the moisture from Cleria’s soaking clothes, removing all water from her and himself.

Then, Reiger cast a fire spell, igniting a flame.

With the light from this fire, Reiger could see part of the dark space.

Before him, under the illumination of the firelight, an underground cave resembling a stalactite cavern came into view.

Reiger, holding Cleria, floated in mid-air within this stalactite cave.

"Where is this?"

Reiger was somewhat surprised and instinctively looked up.

Above, there was no vortex, no glacier, only a ceiling sprouting spike-like icicles.

Despite having charged into the vortex, into the glacier, he inexplicably ended up in such a place, which left Reiger quite astonished.

However, the girl’s temperature, which had yet to recover, and her seemingly entirely lost breath, momentarily shifted his attention away from the current environment.

Carrying the girl, who was like a corpse, Reiger descended to the ground, bringing the burning fireball down with them, which landed on the ground, transforming into a blazing campfire.

"...Is she really dead?"

With a furrowed brow, Reiger checked the girl’s breath, disregarding propriety, placing his hand beneath her thick clothes on her majestic chest.

The conclusion was, indeed, not promising.

The girl had neither breath nor heartbeat.

Adding to that, her body temperature was completely gone, cold like a corpse...

Without a doubt...

Cleria Michelle, was dead.

"Did she just die for nothing?"

Reiger’s furrowed brow surprisingly relaxed.

"I really don’t know if I should call you unlucky or lucky."

Logically, having died so easily, the girl was undoubtedly unlucky.

However, being able to die in front of Reiger was a kind of fortune.

Because, in all of the Akasha Continent, only the man before her had the means to bring her back to life.

"Now you owe me a tremendous favor; getting by with excuses as you did before won’t work anymore, right?"

Thus murmuring to himself, Reiger suddenly activated a precious magic.

"[True Revival]."

The resurrection magic, unmatched by anyone else in this world, was activated.

"Zing!"

As brilliance emerged, the girl’s heartbeat began to return, breath reappeared, and her cold body temperature started to rise again.

The next moment, the girl suddenly opened her eyes.

"————"

Reiger’s expression tensed.

Simply because golden light was gradually gathering in those eyes.
