Chapitre 142: Chapter 142: Before The Coldest Night (I)

The morning before the coldest night finally arrived. The temperature around the castle was bone-chilling for those with thin fur, such as the cow and lizard beastmen, and most importantly, for the humans.

After suffering a humiliating rejection, Long Xiurong decided to lock herself in her room. She refused any invitation from either Lady Jade or Princess Swan. It was also more convenient that way because the coldness was truly unbearable for humans. 

Meanwhile, Swan was inside her room. She sat in her wheelchair, directly facing the fireplace because her leg was aching badly in this temperature. The cream given by Matoa to numb the pain didn't work either, so she was forced to endure the pain while trying not to show any discomfort in front of Gale. 

After all, she would have to leave with Gale to the cave that evening, so she couldn't appear weak no matter what.
