章 152: Her Clan was Wiped Out?

Daytime in winter under the warmth of the sunshine. The bright sky and a beautiful day.

Ely walked up the mountain through paths and stone steps, past several red torii gates.

As she looked around, she noticed a white blanket of snow covering the trees and ground. She took a deep breath, realizing how quiet and serene everything seemed.

The only sound she could hear was only her breath and the boots crunching in the thin snow.

She returned to the shrine abode after clearing the path from the snow. However, she was not alone. Yuuki and Evelyn were also there.

The smell of the damp trees made the air feel so fresh. It felt so peaceful, but a sudden cold air brushed against her cheek. So, she pulled her scarf up closer to her face.

"You forgot to activate your cold-resistance magic item, Ely." Evelyn pulled the blue amulet by Ely's waist and activated it with a touch.
