Under the sky, which was gradually dyeing red. The hunters were moving through the snow. In the words of the North, I would describe it as snowing.

In that, the hunter was uncommonly throwing up evil.

"Damn, it doesn't go any further..."

Having lived in the South Fortress region where it never snowed as good as it had ever been, she said the horror of snow (?) was underestimated.

Snow, in a sense, is like cement. Seems like a viscous liquid, although not a drool...... Once buried, it's hard to take the next step.

Moreover, the depth of the snow is about 50 cm, depending on the location, it can be blown up, and the depth is more than 1 m. It's a difficult business for people to walk through it... The hunter was draining his health rapidly.

Among other things, the measures conceived by Eve, who was attached behind the hunter--,

"... shouldn't this be better once you get back?

—— It was a tactical retreat. There was no confidence that Eve could walk properly at the present time, when the snow was accumulating to a higher position than her waist.

The problem was that we had already come about half a distance to trees where branches to make a mince might be able to be harvested. In other words, it was going to take as much effort to get back or move on.

But still, Eve seemed to think he should go back.

"... yeah. I knew we'd go back, huh? Mr. Hunter."

Although the current situation was not cold, Eve was aware of certain concerns.

Sweat... When you sweat in the cold, when the sweat evaporates, it takes away your temperature as vaporized heat and your temperature drops. Only the body of the equipped person can protect his temperature with enchants, cold gear, etc…. Once you leave your body and become water vapor, it will no longer be subject to thermal insulation and will take away your temperature.

The hunter also seemed to have a faint feeling about the possibility. Although she could still afford it, she concurs with Eve's statement that she wants to turn back.

"Right...... let's go back. Have a waltz or someone prepare a sparkle or a sore..."

"Yeah. Maybe I will."

And we both tried to get back to the cave —— that was the time.

Gu......

A creaking low chirp echoes on the spot.

"Is that a demon?!

"Damn! Too distracted by the snow, didn't you notice the demons!

As soon as I heard that voice, both the hunter and Eve set themselves up. If this were in a snowless forest, the hunter would never have stood up. Rather glad, the prey came, he must have been pleased.

But as things stand, they're in the snow...... It was a situation that was significantly restricted in behavior and could be described as the worst way to cope with demons.

Besides, behind the hunter, there is Eve. How hard it is to fight demons while protecting Eve in a situation so unfavourable that there is no more... The hunter who thought about it accidentally bit his back teeth off.

And --,

"Gwwww!!

—— Before them, demons appear.

That was countless tentacles from all over the body —— no, it was a bear with something like a plant snail wrapped around the body. Such an unusual demon appeared from the other side of the darkness, scratching the nose and snow. Neither the hunter of that must have thought that a demon who did not take deep snow piles as a thing would appear before us.

"Elder Bear...... you say?

"What... that?

"It's a legendary bear who is said to live in the woods of the shadows... I'm just hearing rumors, and I've never seen it before either. But why are you here... well? This is the Elf Forest..."

"Ugh, yeah...... Is there anything you can do about it?

"... oh, I won't"

"Oh well... eh?!

Eve doubting her ears, before the hunter who threw a spoon at her to flow sarcastically. This is what she thought at this time.... and why I can answer instantly. From Eve's point of view, the hunter was a strong samurai and didn't think he'd lose so easily.

You guessed such a question of Eve, the hunter opens his mouth as he makes his own gains.

"He's a... a fairytale demon —— no, he's a warcraft. You better think of it as strong as a dragon."

"What... it..."

"Not in Mid Eden...... with one swing of arms I cut off a big mountain, another swing to decide the earth, and another swing to the forest people......"

The hunter says that much and finds out.

"... that? That story, somehow, has a sense of ready-to-see somewhere..."

"Or, hunter! Maybe you don't have time to think about it?!

"Oh, oh... you did! Anyway, the operation is," Run "! That's it! Because I make a gap, Eve hurries and escapes into the cave! I'll be right behind you!

"Or, hunter?!

Eve didn't seem worried about what the hunter said. Maybe the hunter won't come after me... That worry seemed to have swirled in Eve.

But before the impending bear, there was no room for certainty, no room for thought.

Gwwww!!

Gimp!!

"Hey! Run! Ibu!

"Ugh, yeah!

Eve, called upon by the hunter, ran desperately in the snow.... No, I tried to run.

But the next moment--,

Gucci......

"Fugu?!

—— Eve frustrates her legs and becomes unable to move. Apparently, my legs, which were slightly frustrated when I woke up in the morning, have gotten worse now.

As a result, both Eve and the hunter were in a situation that could be described as utterly deadly.
