I Became the Snow Woman I Made

6 – Rebirth of the Snow Woman (6)

Life in the snowfield was peaceful and smooth.

There was a small problem, but in other words, it was just a continuation of silence as long as there was no such outside intervention. It was only when I came here that I realized that the peace I felt on Earth was not even peace.

Life in the city center, where so many people and so many interests are organically intertwined, is bound to have frequent conflicts, even if you don’t like it. Even if you spend most of the day at home.

On the other hand, the snowfield… A place full of silence. The land of severe cold, where only snowstorms and pure white castles announce its existence, was a paradise for snow women and snow spirits. But how cold the sight will appear in the eyes of others.

Ordinary people would not be able to survive this cold hell even for a moment, and even if they did, their hearts would freeze sooner or later. So he had to become a piece of ice even himself if he wanted to become a resident of an uninhabited world.

But here, there was one exception. An existence whose icy exterior paradoxically protects the inside. Irregulars that could never exist if they were normal unless they were born by God. It was the only species that did not exist in this world.

However, as long as even a faint warmth remained, people wanted new experiences.

*

About a month has passed since then. There was still no watch, so it was just speculation.

Fortunately, Mishra hadn’t come to visit me in the meantime. I don’t know if he just decided to tolerate me or if he had other busy circumstances, but anyway, it was right to say that the crisis was over.

“You won’t come again, even if it’s embarrassing?”

Since he is the Dragon King of the world, how strong must his pride be? His self-esteem will also be high, so he will not be ashamed of arguing again over a lengthy affair. It seemed that my goal was well served.

I smiled a little triumphantly. In any case, noble nobles always had their beliefs as their weakness. It would be better if you had no beliefs like me.

-Oh…

When I glanced to the side, there was a Wen Frieke with her mouth open. She was apparently the youngest pricke she made a month ago. There are few differences in appearance, but I, the creator, could tell.

So why is he doing this? Among the freekes, he was particularly noisy, so I was a little concerned.

– Laughter!

He pointed at me and shouted. She seemed a bit startled, and she inadvertently brought her hand to her mouth. The smile had already disappeared. Did you witness even a fleeting moment?

Fricke ran to the other kids like a kindergartener who saw something strange. All of her spirits were in a reduced state like him.

– Quilly laughed!

– What? No way.

-Did you see something sweet?

Each of the spirits derived from one nation has a unique personality. You can tell the difference just by looking around for a moment. Someone was reading a book, someone was hanging from a window and looking out, and someone was lying spread out doing nothing.

It was a phenomenon that appeared because each person formed a different ego during the birth process. Even the people they got along with were different, like a small society. However, there was only one theme that brought those friques together.

– You said Quilly laughed?

– What! What’s the matter?

-…That kind of nonsense…

It was a person named Quilière, who was closely related to all of them. When I was thrown into the hwadu, the friques put down their books, rushed from the window, snored, and stood up.

I naturally touched my forehead at that familiar flow. I was really glad there was no one else. If I saw you like this, I would be embarrassed to even lift my head.

“It’s a start again…”

Still, it was a fairly understandable reason compared to other times. If I didn’t laugh, the kids would react like that. Because of the snow woman’s setting, even if there were happy things, the expression was extremely minimized.

Lately, I’ve been even more anxious about not knowing when Mishra might attack. It was only now, about a month later, that I felt safe and at ease. I didn’t even know that the tension was relieved thanks to that, and the corners of my mouth loosened.

-I think it’s because it’s just before completion.

In the midst of various opinions, the guy who was reading a book a while ago spat out. He was the smartest of the freekes. Maybe that’s why it was quite plausible compared to the absurd sounds.

– Wow… That’s right!

-You are amazing!

-…Huh.

The freekes, who couldn’t even make such a simple guess, admired it. The guy who gave his opinion tried to pretend to be nonchalant, but his raised shoulders stood out. After all, they are still children.

“It’s not entirely wrong.”

Ensuring safety was more important, but what they were saying was also very important. I stopped paying attention to the freekes and lowered my eyes to see them working hard. The preparations had already been completed a long time ago, and the finishing work had recently begun.

A work in which all the mana was invested every time it was accumulated over several weeks. It is different from Fricke, which can be completed in one day if you catch me and invest. Of course, when it comes to ‘intermediate level spirit’, it is already different from the lower level.

As much as I knew that fact well, I took on the challenge with great determination, but it was more difficult than expected. As the mana drains without a chance to gather, it should be said that the power is suddenly drained. It was only natural that he felt good because he was finally freed from the heavy burden.

“This is it.”

The necessary mana had already been gathered, and the finishing touches had just been completed. As soon as I let go, the snowball started to react strangely as I guessed. Even before it was born, it was a snowball of a different size from Fricke.

Within a moment, the mass of magical power expanded and slowly formed the shape of an object. It grew exponentially and the commotion died down when I had to look up. A finished being stood in front of me.

-·······.

This meter is well over the height. The high top of the head and the long, white hair that covered the whole body matched what I saw in the setting book. Spirits were very rare, and even I, who had played the Four Seasons War for a long time, hadn’t come across much of them.

So, it was also the first time I saw him.

“Can you understand me?”

Intermediate snow spirit ‘Yeti’ nodded slightly at my words. Yeti, unlike Fricke, cannot use whole tones, but their intelligence is by no means inferior. I was satisfied after confirming that fact with the guy’s calm response.

“Go and say hello.”

As I pointed backwards, the Yeti strode forward. Even though they are of different ranks, since they are the same eye spirits, they should be able to get along well. However, the friques expressed their astonishment as if the appearance was too intimidating.

– An amazing guy is here!

– Bigger than Quilly! Long hair too!

-…Why do you look different from us?

I hear a lot of chattering noises. The appearance of a new member of the family, which is different from the previous one, has emerged as a hot potato at once. Even if they caused a lot of trouble, they were basically good kids, so they would probably become friends soon after that.

“That’s enough… Well, that’s fine.”

I turned my attention to that and checked the plan. The snow spirits, like me, have extremely biased attributes, so unless it is an extreme climate, they will suffer various penalties. So taking them to the inside of the continent was not a good choice.

Of course, if I get out of the snowfield, my power consumption will increase and my abilities will weaken, but it was different from the case of the spirits. In a way, the spirit is made up of a single energy source. It is more influenced by the environment than anyone else.

Unlike me, I had to worry about my health. It’s not just one or two, it’s impossible to take care of them all.

“Well… I just need to cross the ice mountain range.”

To head inland, they had to pass through the Ice Mountains. The problem is that monsters live there, unlike snowfields where no life forms are visible. I was still not confident in battle, so I needed a reliable escort.

The intermediate spirit Yeti was created for him. It’s also a snow spirit, so it won’t be able to go inland, but it should be enough to serve as an escort. Once I crossed the ice mountain range, then I had to go through it alone.

“It’s a continent…”

I didn’t suddenly have these thoughts. In fact, everyone desperately wants traces of people when they fall alone on a desolate ground, but thanks to Snow Woman’s setting, I had no mental problems. Of course, there were no adverse effects, but of course, curiosity always existed.

Rather than taking a risk driven by curiosity, I just maintained peace for the moment. However, he turned his eyes away as much as possible and created spirits through magical training, but his interest only grew day by day.

“It should be moderately boring.”

Above all, the fact that daily life was not very interesting was a big flaw. Since then, it is a body that has lived on Earth, encountering various entertainment and stimulating media. It was only natural to choose a little challenge over the boring peace.

“Honestly… I’m curious.”

That was my sincere feeling. Even though it was a thousand years before the original, it was the stage of the Four Seasons War that I loved so much. As long as you are possessed by that world, the desire to look around with your own eyes naturally arises.

As timing is timing, there must be many things that are different from memories, but there should be fewer dangerous parts. Because it is not a chaotic world full of disasters and wars like the original work.

“Then let’s get the right things and prepare for departure.”

There was no need to go through the trouble of buying it with bare hands. It would be helpful if I brought items that I could use or sell to exchange for cash. It was the moment I was about to head to the warehouse to look for things.

Kwaaah-!

A very annoying roar was heard. The bad memories came back on their own, and my feet stopped. I couldn’t ignore it, so I turned around and saw a familiar view.

The snow field is even whiter today. A huge flying object flying over it. For some reason, it seemed that the speed had slowed down considerably compared to before, but the dragon king I had never wanted to meet again was right. I just blinked my eyes in dismay.

“Hey, wait…”

Why is that coming?

Having come to my senses, I ordered the werewolfized Freikes to stay in the castle and brought only the Yeti down. He wanted to exclude elements that would stimulate his opponent, but it must have been the result of the psychology of wanting to have at least one ally.

It was unusually bright outside. Is it only on days like this that you come to me? Mishra was still seated on the snowy hill where she had sat before. The dragon king stared at me, who had just appeared.

‘Why, what. What else are you complaining about?’

I met her eyes straight with irritation… But not showing it. Contrary to expectations, there was no intense force in his eyes. I still don’t know why he visited, but it didn’t seem like anger.

I felt a little relieved when I judged that. Apparently, it wasn’t a crisis situation like before. After a brief confrontation, the Yeti stepped forward, presumably to help her master.

A formidable energy flowed from her face, which was devoid of her size and emotion. Indeed, compared to the Dragon King, he was feeble, but compared to Fricke, he was quite strong.

[······!]

Mishra’s eyes widened at the sight of the Yeti. However, as if she understood something, the light quickly faded. She didn’t know what she was thinking at the time, so she decided to just go straight.

“What’s up?”

However, I immediately regretted it. Because that tone was a little cooler than I thought. She looked at Mishra with a hint of apprehension… Her eyes were twitching slightly. My heart shrank rapidly.

I think that’s embarrassing. No matter how you look at it, it was a reaction that comes out when you are embarrassed or worried. Then why were you upset? It wasn’t hard to guess. A month ago, she barely took care of herself, but she still comes off as arrogant, so it’s because it’s ridiculous!

‘f*cking Troublemaker…’

It is said that the mouth is the source of all evil. Anyway, this situation had to be smoothed out somehow. If he had just been silent, he might have offended her and chased her away again if he didn’t deal with it.

‘Provide, to practice…’

Persuading with words? I asked myself if I was deaf and dismissed it. Dialogue, considered the wisest solution, was useless to me. It wouldn’t be better if I could express my hardened heart in words. If Snow Woman was a bright character and not cold…

At that time, I thought of the troublemakers I had created. Just a moment ago, they were messing with each other with lively voices. Although his mental age was highly questionable, there was no doubt about his bright personality.

How about getting their help? I left it out in case it upsets me, but I’ve changed my mind now. Even if my tone is cold, wouldn’t it be much better if the surroundings were bright? Even if the freekes don’t know anything else, the appearance is cute, so even the dragon king won’t get angry easily.

No, rather, it can relieve anger. Justice is cute in any era. Yes, as long as Mishra came back, if she passed on, her aftertaste would be unpleasant. At this point she definitely had to get permission.

[You… No, you…]

I heard something, but I couldn’t figure out what it was because I had a fever in my head. Before that, she opened her mouth right away.

“Come in.”

The words still vomited in a cold tone. It meant an invitation. It was the mindset that permission would easily fall if he was formally invited and treated graciously.

[What? No…]

But she showed an unexpected reaction. After this, my eyes, which I hadn’t calculated, suddenly caught on the dragon king’s face. Not good. Judging from the fact that the word “No” Came out, there is a high possibility of expressing an intention to refuse, but if that happens…

[…That, well, no… Got it.]

Mishra, who was talking gibberish for some reason, expressed his consent. What. Has she changed her mind? Whatever she said, good is good, so she didn’t mean to point it out. She trudged over and opened her back door to guide her instead.

Hwaaak-

Suddenly, a strong wind blew and turned her head. There, a woman was standing there, with the appearance of the dragon king almost obscuring the mountain. The woman with light blue eyes, her long silver hair down to her waist, was definitely not in my memory, but of course she couldn’t be someone I didn’t know.

‘Is it a polymorph?’

With that in mind, she entered the castle first. Her heart was heavy as she was on a mission to satisfy her customers. Another sound of footsteps followed me.
