The Hated Savior
TIRE 129

The wind gusts were so very strong, carrying snowflakes and tree branches that were broken because they were not strong enough to withstand the speed of very strong winds. Trees are swayed to the threshold of following the flow of wind currents that will not weaken.

Such an extremely cold temperature was able to freeze the boiling water into ice clumps in such a short time. Wolf howls rang out among the sounds of the storm winds that made the guts small in the horrors of the fury of nature that was venting its anger.

From behind the curtain of raging wind and snow, there was a group of people struggling against the fierce wind of the storm without any fear on their faces. However, if the storm has not subsided it is their biggest fear in wading through the blizzard to reach the place they are headed.

"Miss, I think we should stop for a moment, this stormy wind is so very strong, I'm not sure if the journey in the storm is no obstacle." Leave said by continuing to try to fight the roar of strong wind that hit his body.

"Alright, I also can't stand the long haul of this kind of hostile weather." Aquila said while covering her face so as not to be hit by snow flakes carried by strong wind currents.

"But where? I don't see any caves or houses around here." Minami said with an anxious-looking face.

"Calm down, I'll take care of this. Most importantly, we have to find the right place for us to live." Say Leave while observing the surroundings.

"Why are they all sleeping? Have we entered another pillar?" Aquila asked with a slightly sour face.

"Maybe, miss, didn't Mr Shiro always do the same thing when he was in his other brother's place?" Leave said by asking back.

"Totally so." Aquila agreed with what Leave said.

"Miss, I found a pretty good place for us to stay for a while." Minami said with a blissful face.

"Wait what else, let's get there!" Leave said no less enthusiastic with Minami. The three of them immediately walked to the place where Minami was shown, and they arrived at a tree that was quite large and right beside the river that had frozen on the edge.

"The place is strategic enough for us to use temporarily, and also wait for them to wake up from their long slumber." Aquila said while looking at the tree that looks familiar according to Aquila.

"Then leave it to me to make a house here." Said Leave, then a rune appeared on the surface of the ground that was buried by thick snow and a circular house composed of blocks of ice that was very strong because it was supported by the crystal element of Leave.

"Lady, this is beautiful." Minami said spontaneously touching the ice wall.

"In that case, come in immediately, the temperature is already very cold outside." Leave was also approved by Minami who had opened the door made of ice.

"I thought it would be cold, it turns out I was wrong, it's quite warm." Aquila said in admiration.

"really so. Then wait a minute, let me put the bed and blanket here." Minami said while removing some thin mattresses but warm enough and blankets as a complement.

"I leave it to Brother Nami and Brother Leave." Aquila said with a light smile.

"Miss, are we going to continue our journey after this storm?"Tanya Leave who was sitting next to him and also Minami.

"Yes, how else. We can't hit the raging forces of nature like they are today." Aquila said in a quiet voice.

"Miss, I got a little information from my uncle when I met him one last time. Said uncle, if the middle ocean empire is indeed a saint to defeat miss, because the rumor that the lady is a demon has made the ocean empire become unsettled." Minami said with a serious face.

"Leave it. I don't care if the empire calls a saint. All I care about is you and my sisters. It doesn't matter to me to destroy that empire if they dare to injure you." Aquila said firmly and determinedly which emanated from her beautiful face.

Of course what Aquila just said made Minami and Leave touched. It also made them confident to serve and protect Aquila with all their body and soul to the end of blood.

"Miss, thanks. However, what I heard was that he the saint had an oddity that was very unlike a saint. She had short hair, with strange clothes when she came, and also her gaze was so cold it was almost the same as miss." Minami said she added what she knew from her uncle.

"Lantas, should I care?" Ask Aquila with a face that is not interested or does not care at all.

"Miss, I'm just telling the lady I know. And also the name of the saint is Laurena Rintania." Minami said with a face that was annoyed with her non-manners that sometimes would not care what she said.

But the faces of Aquila and Leave immediately stiffened in disbelief with the name that Minami had just spoken.

"Rin.." said Aquila in a cursory voice.

"Minami, are you sure of the saint's name? I mean the name is real or just a cover." Leave said with a middle-looking face making sure of something.

"Do Miss Leave and Miss Aquila know the saint?" Ask Minami curiously.

"If it is him, then fate has brought me together with him even though the enemy is not a friend." Aquila said with teary eyes.

"Miss, who's the saint?" Minami asked back because she was consumed by curiosity.

"She is Miss Rin, a friend and sister to Miss Aquila. More precisely she was the most important person for Miss Aquila in the world that Miss Aquila used to live in." Leave answered representing Aquila who is now holding back her tears so as not to fall.

"Then, what will we do if Miss Aquila and the saint fight on the battlefield against the lady later?" Ask Minami to make sure.

"I don't know. Only the lady will decide." Leave said by pairing Aquila with mute.
