It was a truly wonderful sight.

Suddenly, the hot spring water from the Echo Forest began to swirl around Shirka's toes, then wrapped around her whole body and gushed out.

Kuwaa-

At that moment, the hot steam of the hot spring and the bitter cold resonated with each other.

What a bummer!

The misty steam rising over the hot spring centered on Sirka quickly turned into pure white frost and froze.

It was a wonderful moment, as if the whole world froze.

...and so it was.

belt ring.

['Sanctuary of the Yeti' is activated.]

Just then, a message appeared in front of Suho.

[Passive skill '(Unknown)' is activated.]

Time froze.

* * *

A world of complete blankness.

Suho stood alone at the end of the empty horizon.

'...here again.'

Suho calmly looked around.

And he found the being who called him here.

'found.'

The end of the empty horizon.

An old, shabby ice elf was sitting on the other side of it.

Suho took a step and slowly approached him.

'Did you call me?'

[...]

When Suho spoke first, the old ice elf's head slowly lifted.

Then, what was revealed was his old and weak expression and tired, empty eyes.

[The King of the Yetis, the Lord of the Cold, is watching you.]

Suho nodded his head, convinced of his identity at the system message that appeared just in time.

'As expected, you are the king of the yetis, Silla, the lord of the cold.'

[...]

However, even when Suho spoke to him, there was no reply from Silad.

He just stared at Suho with a tired look. freeweb(n)ovel.com

'what?'

Suho felt a sense of wonder at the atmosphere so different from other monarchs he had met so far.

Suddenly, he remembered the moments when he faced other monarchs.

The king of beasts, the Fang Lord, despite his death, still radiated the power of a king from his body.

The Lord of Plague, the King of Bugs, also attacked himself with numerous poisonous insects, burning his vengeance even to the point of death.

But what can I say about the lord of the cold sitting in front of him...

He was just a shabby old man who was old and exhausted.

[...okay. Are you his son?]

After staring at Suho's face for a long time, Silad, the lord of the cold, finally opened his mouth.

[It's a really strange skill. To rescue my soul from the sea after death. Should I say he is the son of the shadow lord?]

'The sea after death?'

[Don't you know? It's where the dead go when they die. Hey, what's so important about this expression...]

Szilard looked up at the empty sky with a remorseful expression.

Of course, nothing was visible on it.

nothing.

[...waking up in a world of nothingness is such a rare experience. A self –

deprecating smile formed on Silad's lips.

[okay. Death is such a futile thing. Even though I knew it would end like this anyway, what on earth did I struggle for?]

'....'

Suho silently looked at him as he complained like a madman without making eye contact with himself.

[You know what? I don't know if other lords are different, but I actually fought because I didn't want to die. The darkness within me constantly whispered to me to destroy everything, but I knew that the end would be only destruction.] Whoa- [

Yes,

I knew I would be like this someday.]

He let out a low sigh as he sat down. .

Then, the pure white steam that flowed from its mouth became frost and created a mirage in the air.

Then, countless illusions of ice elves appeared in front of Suho and Silad.

[Do you know? We have been forced into war from the moment we were born. From the beginning until now, maybe forever. That's why God created us.]

Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah-!

In the illusion of a mirage, the Ice Elves were fighting.

No, I was running towards a certain death.

And among them...

There was also 'Shillad'.

[You know what? At the end of that war, we 'almost' won. I also killed your father with my own hands.]

'...!'

At that moment, Suho's eyes widened.

The image of a young man reflected in a mirage.

It was clear that the identity of the man who looked so much like her was her father, Seong Jin-woo.

And...

Fuuk!

[I stabbed a knife into your father's heart with my own hand.]

In that fantasy, Silard was stabbing a frozen blade into Seong Jin-wu's heart.

'father...?!'

Seeing this, Suho widened his eyes.

[The King of Yetis, the Lord of the Cold, uses 'Skill: Echo'.]

Just in time, the conversations taking place in the fantasy passed by Suho's ears like an echo on a frosty wind.

-I'll give you back your weapon. Now, can you recover like before?

Silad in the fantasy was whispering into 'Sung Jin-woo"s ear.

In an extremely vicious voice.

– Is this far, human? then you can't see The moment our troops arrive on this land. When that time comes, your human corpses will form mountains and your blood will form rivers.

Silard was pouring a terrible curse on Seong Jin-woo, who was dying from a stabbing in the heart.

-But this country where you were born and raised will be different. I will personally freeze all humans on this earth and make them suffer forever. They will live for an infinite number of years, neither alive nor dead.

[...hate me endlessly in death like that.]

At some point, the voices of Silad in the echo and Silad here overlapped.

-That will also be my pleasure.

[That will also be my pleasure.]

Passeuk.

And at that moment, Seong Jin-woo's body, which was crumbling, shattered and scattered into ice powder.

Szilard, who sat staring at the ice powder in vain, looked at Suho with a puzzled expression.

[Have you seen it? I murdered your father with the most cruelty, and I intended to curse every life related to your father. The reason is also the same. Only so that I don't die.]

Szilard didn't bother to show Suho what happened next.

After that, Seong Jin-woo was resurrected, and the fact that it was Sillade himself who lost his life after being defeated in the war.

What does that matter in the first place?

The fact that you are right now proves all the results.

'...why are you showing me this?'

As he watched his father fall apart, Suho's eyes were boiling like hot flames.

His fists were full of energy, as if he would run at the shield in front of him at any moment, but he did not act recklessly.

I don't know if that fantasy is real or false, but at any rate, at this point, my father was still alive.

Rather, it was Silad who was dead and here now.

So it was even more confusing.

Why was Szilard showing himself such an illusion?

Why are you provoking yourself like this?

[...So, the moment I suddenly woke up from the sea of death and realized that it was the son of the Shadow Lord who woke me up.] At that moment, Sillade's

eyes, which had been empty until now, were filled with a terribly cold feeling of life.

[I was going to kill you right away.]

That handful of life gave me goosebumps, as if the cold of the bitter cold had been compressed to the extreme.

[I don't know how far my power will reach you, but I was planning to somehow drag your soul into the sea after death where I was. But.]

...I couldn't.

Because Suho wasn't the only one who woke him up.

Ice elf Sirka.

Shirka, the guardian of the Baruka tribe.

Szilard was curious.

Who is the heir who discovered the sanctuary of the Lord he hid in the Echo Forest?

In order to determine whether or not it is a vessel that will pass on its power.

It controlled Shiraka's body and read the memories contained within it.

And I sincerely regret it.

[...I shouldn't have seen it.]

Szilard did.

The things that happened in this land after the war that Sirka personally experienced.

Haaa-

At that moment, Silad's sigh created an illusion of frost again.

In that fantasy...

Surprisingly, there was Cha Hae-in, Suho's mother.

'Mother...'

Suho also saw the illusion.

In that fantasy, Cha Hae-in...

was with the ice elves who survived the war.

She stood by those young and weak children and brought smiles to their faces that were frozen like the cold.

like a mother

[...It's like a mother.] Only

then did Suho realize the identity of the expression on Silard's face.

Even at the moment when he stabbed Sung Jin-Woo's heart with a knife, Szilard cursed at him.

-I will personally freeze all humans on this land and make them suffer forever. They will live for an infinite number of years, neither alive nor dead.

– Hate me endlessly in death like that. That too will be my pleasure.

Szilard, who had said so confidently, was sitting here dead like this.

And the tribes that survived after losing the war...

I would have thought they were being taken care of by the wife of the winner of the war, Seong Jin-woo.

In addition, the expressions of the ice elves being cared for by Cha Hae-in were filled with bright smiles without a single wrinkle.

Kut.

For a moment, Szilard frowned with the most humiliated expression.

Ironically, their bright expression was a warm smile that their king and monarch himself had never seen before.

That was natural.

They were just horses on a battlefield that would last forever to him.

From the beginning, they were created only for that.

however.

[He was able to make that kind of expression.]

He looked back at Suho with a sigh.

[Yes, you guys won. In the end, I admit that I was defeated even in death.]

Before I knew it, tears were leaking from the eyes of Silad, who was making a humiliating expression.

[Now, in death, instead of hating you, I have come to feel endless gratitude for you. But even this kind of humiliation... I'm just grateful.]

Yes.

Thank you very much.

to shed tears

Silard, who had been sitting the whole time, slowly got up.

[Son of the shadow lord.]

Whoa!

Then, the monarch's energy slowly swaying from his senile body filled the empty world.

[The King of Yeti, the Lord of the Cold, is watching you.]

That arrogant gaze reached Suho.

[I will ask you one favor. This is the cowardly and servile will of a defeated monarch, and my last regret on this earth.]

'....'

[Please... Please give thanks to your mother on my behalf.]

Yes.

That's it.

[And just as your mother took care of my children, from now on I will also protect you.] At

that moment, the energy of frost that filled this empty world blessed Suho

.

belt ring.

['Prophecy: Blessing of the Cold' is applied.]

At that moment, Suho's frozen time started to move again.

The final voice of Silad, the lord of the cold that was getting farther away, reached Suho.

[I heard your mother is in danger nearby. I will send her right there.]
