In the darkness of the night, snowflakes fell quietly, and the whole world was dyed white.

In the mountains at higher altitudes, there is a being walking through the gaps in the trees. It was a knightly man with an extremely desperate face, running desperately.

Because of the snow, his feet were almost worn out many times, but he still kept running and he kept looking back.

"Oops...that...oops!" he muttered shakily, banging his hands on a nearby tree to maintain his posture whenever he nearly fell over.

"Help me!" He shouted, the scene of the team members losing their lives flashing in his mind, and his physical strength and will were almost exhausted. But he kept running because he wanted to live, because of the fear approaching from behind.

He was supposed to just go out on a mission, and he had never heard of such a "monster" existing.

There were once many team members, but now he is the only one left. That guy is not a simple "monster". He must go back and report as soon as possible.

Otherwise, can he come back alive?

The idea of ​​a vicious cycle kept recurring in his mind.

He glanced back and saw himself walking in a snake-like path, a white landscape with darkness behind him.

No sound was heard.

There were no signs of pursuit.

Can't he leave his territory?

Are there any monster-like creatures nearby?

Aliens that had only recently surfaced in his memory flashed through his mind.

Sure enough, he still had doubts about that...he used "monster" to describe it.

Anyway, just leave that guy.

The moment of slight peace of mind was short-lived. As he hurried forward, he fell for the first time.

"Damn it!" He stood up hastily.

Why snow?

Pointless venting of anger on nature.

If it weren't for the snow, he would have run faster.

It would be great if I could learn flying magic properly. Now, the anger has turned into anger at what once was my past.

Turn around again.

At the same time, a strange sound came from behind.

He turned around suddenly, seeing endless white and black.

He raised his knees and stood up, feeling a bad premonition ahead. The man kept looking back without looking ahead.

But he can't move forward without moving forward.

He slowly moved his gaze.

"Ha...ha..." His breathing became rapid and his heartbeat became stronger. He hoped that this was just unfounded worries.

Although he didn't believe it before, now he prayed to God for the first time. He cast his gaze forward and his whole body stiffened.

He opened his eyes wide, his expression gradually replaced by fear. Then not long after, he let out an echoing howl in the mountains.

There was a click, and the ice in the glass made a sound. In the quiet store, the owner wiped the glass silently.

The store was empty except for two customers. One of them, Sirius, drank the brown liquid that made the sound from the glass in one gulp. Another man named Leonardo stared at him in confusion.

"Stop drinking. It will be bad for your health." Leonardo advised.

Sirius replied: "Stop talking nonsense."

Leonardo sighed and lowered his head: "Although I can understand your mood, but..." He didn't finish. Sirius ignored him and slammed his glass on the bar.

The shop owner also looked embarrassed and asked, "Do you want to continue drinking?"

Sirius glared at him fiercely, and the shopkeeper had no choice but to pour another glass of wine. Sirius turned his eyes to Leonardo: "Only today. Just stay with me once. From tomorrow on, I will act in the usual way. ."

Leonardo hesitated for a moment, then drank his own cup, and the shopkeeper poured wine for Leonardo.

"It's all my fault." Sirius said, holding the cup filled with wine, "If I had stopped it then, Fay wouldn't have died...!"

Leonardo cast a sad look, which was why Sirius was in this state, he had such great expectations for Fey.

Suddenly, Sirius said: "I'm sorry."

"I'm not here to let your subordinates run errands." Leonardo replied with a smile, and Sirius finished the wine in one breath.

"Achieving your goal is the only salvation."

"Indeed." Sirius turned his gaze to Leonardo, "It seems that the body will be returned to the empire."

"Did Reno say that?"

Sirius nodded.

"They hope to rest in peace with their families in their hometown."

Sirius nodded again. Then, only the sound of ice in the glass was heard.

"That's right." There seemed to be various emotions in the voice that spoke quietly.

Although grief doesn't go away, the pair understand that it will fade over time and that blaming others won't heal the pain.

So, just on this day, just this day, pour everything into wine and turn it into wine. After finishing the conversation in the wine, we started a new day again.

Past, present, and future, this non-stop daily life will continue.

So, they could only clink glasses silently and drink all the wine in one go. Just like that, their night gradually dimmed.

It still feels fresh in the morning. Wake up with the rising sun, bathe in the sunshine, shed sweat, and fall asleep at night. Isn't this what humans are supposed to be like?

Lena was thinking about these things as she washed the windows and looked at the people walking in the morning sunshine. However, her expression became increasingly somber.

Because when I look back, I see a tired scene in front of me. In the dim bar, messy dishes and wine glasses were placed haphazardly on the tables and counters, while diners lay down and snored on chairs or on the floor in their favorite places.

She couldn't help but sigh. "It's pitiful, really pitiful."

At some point, Ivan cut off his long red and black hair, replaced it with short hair, and sat on a chair. Lena exhaled loudly, smiled and said to Ivan: "Can you bring me a glimmer of light?"

After Ivan was asked, "No problem, Miss," he snapped his fingers. In an instant, flames ignited in every corner of the sky, lighting up the entire bar as if it were daytime.

At the same time, Lena clapped her hands: "Okay! Everyone get up! Gotta clean!" Accompanied by sounds, sounds and lights, people woke up in a daze in different places.

The first person to wake up, no need to hide his true identity, was the owner of this bar: "Hmm! Is it already noon?"

Lena smiled bitterly at the busy store manager and said, "It's morning now, so I have to help clean."

"Ah, yes. Sorry, I'm going to wash my face." After saying that, the store manager wanted to stand up from the bench, but he slipped and fell because of sleepiness, and his head hit the corner of a nearby table.

Ivan laughed at the store manager's painful expression, and then his eyes turned to a beautiful girl with pure white hair.

The girl raised her upper body and swayed wildly. As she trembled, the cat ears growing from her head also trembled and moved.
