Chapter 37 - SNOWLANDIA

"Uhm... Is that so? What a relief.." They both felt relaxed and calmed down. "Then it's decided! Our son will be studying Abroad!" Mr. Lucas got so excited and so proud of it. "Yeah abroad! We will be going to miss you Blaike-chan!" Ms. Dory replied. After a couple of minutes passed, they then packed their things up and changed their outfit. "Since we are now closer to the 'SNOWLANDIA', where the place is always snowing and the temperature is very cold. That means we must wear warm clothes to keep our bodies warm. And lastly is to be more vigilant always! For that is the place where those one-eyed giants also are known as the Cyclopes. Because It's their territory, so we must not let them see us. Especially you, my love, since you are pregnant, please be more careful." "Don't worry honey, even though I am pregnant, I am still strong enough to handle myself and I can also deal with them." "Don't worry Mother Dory, Hwan is here and will protect you." "Silly kid, Let's protect each other then." Then the three were now heading towards the northern part of the forest.

{February 27, 2113}

A couple of days passed, The three have arrived at SNOWLANDIA. As the three still walking from the snow plain land, they then saw two male Cyclopes approaching their location. The three hid, while the two cyclopes didn't notice and were still talking to each other. *Is that the real Giant Cyclopes? so big!* Blaike got so amazed, for it's his first time seeing it. From another area in SNOWLANDIA "urgghh! Why us?! Why does the boss want us to find that golden treasure in this kind of cold place?! I need rest and do some beauty care!?" "But madam 12, boss give this mission personally to us, that means he has faith that we can find, so we need to find it as soon as possible. Besides I am still pissed off and still not move on from those stupid weak bunny mask family that we encountered back from the dungeon!? They tricked us and get the Treasure from themselves!? If I see those faces!? I will be going to crush them into pisses!?" 16 voice gave an angry sound for he was still mad about it. "You there! Don't slack around! Do your work faster!?" 12 shouted at those soldiers while they were setting a camp.

"Don't shout at them madam 12, they are not your followers and soldiers, they are mine. Even though I am still rank at the bottom, I am recruiting more followers to get more honor and soon be promoted! So you better watch out." 16 wanted to show his goal of why he joined the dark guild. "Hmmph... I don't care about that!? Do what you want!? "Ttsskk! Don't follow me, I need to be alone right now!?" 12 got so really tired and wanted to have her beauty rest, so she then walked out and flew away. "President Tang, what should we do?" A voice coming from a teenage guy behind 16. "Don't worry, she can take care of herself. Anyways T1 and T2, you two must lead these soldiers and followers to this area to find where the golden treasure is." "President Tang, the Vice president sent a message telling you to come back to school after your work to attend the Student councils meeting." "Yes, Yes. I already told her that I will attend the meeting so you two can now go and scout immediately." "Yes, president Tang." The two greeted out and then do their duty.

Meanwhile, "Aarrgghh! I have my problem in my kingdom and now the boss added another one! How can I do this work if so many problems keep on adding up!? Aarrrgghh!?" 12 walked angrily from the forest part of the Snowlandia. "Gurrraaahh!" Two Giant cyclopes saw her and rushed towards her location, but as soon they got closer, in just seconds passed, the two Giant cyclopes already knockdown and were dead. Their bodies got dried out like the blood inside were all gone, and some of the blood was dripping from their neck. While 12's lips were filled with so many bloods. "Hmmph! Don't you dare interrupt me when I am having my moment here, stupid giants!" 12 continued her moment while walking out.

Meanwhile, Naro and Neil were still spying on Blaike from afar. But they didn't know that Blaike already tracking them from the start, and whenever Blaike noticed their whereabouts, he just never mind it, for he doesn't want to interrupt their job. On the other side of the Snowlandia area where there's a village with modernizing Igloo houses and buildings made of ice. It was made by hard bluish-white stones and bricks that cannot easily be melted by the fire, forming like a house type village where the cyclopes tribe are living. "Ugaa! Ugaa! (Father Patriarch! Father Patriarch!)" A cyclopes male with an outfit made of shells with animal skins and it made him look like a soldier. He was running while shouting until he arrived in the big ice castle house where the Father Patriarch was living.

"Ugaa! Gogogagagugiga (Father Patriarch! The soldier greets you.)" The cyclops soldier then bowed. "Gagagigugiga! (There's an intruder outside near our location!)" the soldier continued to informed the Father Patriarch. "Gogagu? (where are they?)" A sound of a rough and old voice coming from the Head Chief, his appearance is like an old Cyclops matching with animal clothes and pieces of jewelry that made him looks like a real leader. Sitting like in the king chair, having four guards around him and two teenager cyclopes female who was flirting with him. "Gigiga guha guga gegagi! (from the east side of our village and it was alone!)"

"Gagi? Gogugi gugigagugu (alone? Then just kill it quickly)" "Guugaa Guuugaa! Guagua gagi! (There's a problem! There's a problem! The two soldiers who were scouting there were been killed by it!)" "Guuaaa!? Gigugua gagi?! (What? it killed them all alone?)" "Gai! (Yes!)" "Gugeageagaigo gugugagie! (Then send some strong soldiers there and kill it immediately!)" "Gai! Ugaa! (Yes! Head Chief!)"The soldier then rushed out, the Father Patriarch thought as if something was wrong. "Giegieguga? Giiguaguagoga! (What is it doing here? send some soldiers to scout all the area.)" "Gai Ugaa! (Yes Father Patriarch!)"

At night, Blaike and the couple camped in the middle of the Snow Forest. They had finished their night meal and were now having some conversation together while sitting near the fire. "Mother Dory, how did the both of you with Father Lucas met each other?" Blaike asked to give some topics. "Hmm well, we actually met back in the Human Continent, in the GOLDEN SUN KINGDOM when we were both teenagers." Ms. Dory answered him directly. "But how did you end up being together? Well, that means that your hometown was in the Golden Sun Kingdom? Are your family there too?.." Blaike asked again out of curiosity.

"Hold on, take it slowly Hwan-kun. You have so many questions, your Mother can't keep it up..." Mr. Lucas interrupted them because Blaike asked so many questions. "Don't worry honey, our son really loves to know our story, so let him be. Anyways, let me start when I was young. Actually, I was born in a rich family, from the East Side in Human Continent. There's a small country named StoneFerd Country, ruled by my father the duke, which means I am their little lady or sort of. Since I am their only child, my father, the duke, and mother, the duchess was so very focused on my future. One day our business encountered a very big problem, my father has a verge of debts from the Golden Sun Kingdom."

"So the only choice my father can do is to transfer me into the Golden Sun Kingdom to study and have a contract to marry one of the Prince from the Golden Family. There I studied from the private school and train myself on how to make pills and medicine. Afterward, I joined the Alchemist Association in secrets to my family and serve the soldiers from the war, and that's when I met your father Lucas..." Ms. Dory suddenly stopped. Mr. Lucas knew why, so he then replied, "Hwan-kun, I think your mother needs to rest now. My Love, let's go inside the tent now." Mr. Lucas then stood up and help his wife walked inside their tent, while Blaike left alone with Hailleon outside.

"What just happens? Hhmm. Mother Dory's story was still confusing, what comes next to that? Hmm, I think she got tired now. Never mind, I'll just ask her myself tomorrow. Blaike then look up into the sky and saw those stars shining at night. Granny, I miss you so so much! You know what, I met such wonderful people from this journey. They also treat me as their real son, I felt their love towards me just like yours and Auntie Kathie... Auntie Kathie? Oh shit! I still haven't given her a call yet since after the dungeon event, oh my! She will get very mad at me right now!? Wait let me try and call her but I need to get farther from here." Blaike then walked out of their camping area and look for a place for him to talk with his Auntie while he carried Hailleon with him. As Blaike was now far from the camp area, he then immediately contacted his Auntie.

As the mirror communicator device showed the face of his Auntie who looks very serious while looking at Blaike and the tense of the area got so dark. "He..he..hello A...a...Auntie! Goo..good Ee.Evening! Ho...How A...Are Y...You? Long-time no see?" "Oh? I thought you're dead..." She replied with an unsatisfied result. "Auntie! I mmiisss yyooouu-" "Oh shut up! You stupid brat!" She shouted with a very furious attitude. "I am so sorry Auntie! I really a-" "Sorry my ass! You piss of rat! You disobeyed so many rules! You disobeyed my order! And now you still call me your Auntie!? Huh!? Look at your face now! You are getting older! Your hair got longer! Your skin got tanner! You are so haggard and skinny!? Don't tell me you want to live there?! And if so, then don't even try to contact me anymore! You fucking kid! Don't even think about coming back here!? Or I will rip all your bones out!? You-"

"Master, calm down. Your Blood Pressure will rise again." Big brother Yexin walked inside her office and warned her immediately for her health. "Oh Yeah I forgot! Could you give me some medicine to calm myself down." "Yes, master!" Big brother Yexin then walked out. "So brat! What are you going to do now? I am still mad at you, so you better give me an acceptable reason for that." "I'm so sorry Auntie! Please forgive your nephew for I am still a kid! Please, please! Anyways, I already got two golden treasure that you are looking for and now I am on my last treasure, after this, I will definitely come back home and...."

They took an hour talking to each other, "So please wait a bit more Auntie for this is the last treasure I need to get before coming back home." "Hhmpp, it's your choice and I am just here supporting you always. But since you disobeyed me then your punishment is now ready and are waiting for your return. anyways, I need to go now, you too must rest now and take good care of yourself." "Yes, Auntie! See you soon!" They then ended their conversation. As Blaike Started to walk, he then felt a little dizzy and in just for a second he suddenly pass out.

Mr. Lucas and ms. Dory were also sleeping deeply not knowing what had happened that night, while Naro and Neil who guarded their master Blaike while talking to his Auntie from afar were also passed out. Morning came, Mr. Lucas woke up to make some foods for their breakfast, but when he tried to wake Blaike up on the other tent, he never saw Blaike and even the tent was still neat and clean with no trace of someone slept there. He then rushed back and woke ms. Dory up. "Honey! Honey! Wake up! Hwan-kun is not here! He's lost!" Mr. Lucas shouted with a worrisome tone.

"Hmm?... What?!" Ms. Dory got shocked. The two immediately packed their things, they then both tried to find him, but in the end, he is nowhere to be found. Naro and Neil woke up by the shouting sound, "HHmm?... What? Master is lost?... Huh?! Master Blaike is lost?! Neil lets go and find him quick!" they heard that their master was lost, so they then also rushed through to find him. While walking and shouting, ms. Dory felt that her Guardian Beast Snow Fox was not from her inside, but she still felt like Hailleon is still alive and using a bit of her energy power. "Honey! I think Hwan-chan is with my guardian Hailleon, I think they are alive but not feeling well. I don't know what happened but I got the feeling that both of them were so far away from us." Ms. Dory told him while focusing to communicate with her guardian beast. "Can you try to talk to Hailleon? Just-"
