Chapter 146: Chapter 146 Trapped in Danger

Snowflakes fell gently to the ground, blanketing the landscape. Tall pine trees stretched into the sky, their branches laden with snow. Above, the dark sky shimmered with countless stars, creating a serene and enchanting scene.

Crack—

Near a tall pine tree, nestled within the snowy landscape, lay a frozen lake, its surface shimmering with a sheet of ice under the moonlit sky.

"...Help!" Kyra's voice echoed faintly across the tranquil winter night. She struggled desperately under the icy grip of the lake, her face flushed from the freezing water, and her body shivering uncontrollably as she frantically clawed at the thick ice.

Crack—

With a determined effort, she summoned all her strength, pounding on the ice until it finally gave way. The frozen barrier shattered, sending shards scattering around her, but the shock of the cold water splashed up, stinging her face with its bitter chill.
