A war in the blizzard

Ophelia and Esmeralda were not prepared to materialize in the middle of nowhere on mount Sidus. However, the cold was so oppressive that they were relieved they had previously made preparations for the winter.

Ophelia transformed her fiery weapon back into a dagger. "I didn't know the approach would have such a severe murder intent."

Esmeralda assumed a crooked stance, holding her bow and arrow. "They are fully aware that you will fight back."

Ophelia gave a nod. The moment she ran into Esmeralda, Nikolai somehow teleported her away without making any form of contact. It was almost as though he had predicted everything.

She squinted her eyes and allowed her gaze to wander over the snow-covered landscape. Huge clumps of snow were falling from the sky, and the cold wind was whooshing ferociously against their faces.

"A blizzard." Ophelia grumbled.

"We have to return back to the mansion." Esmeralda gasped.
