"You're back to your senses?" last night he noticed Kiara was asleep because she had passed out.
This time Kiara's head was not as painful as yesterday, she adjusted her breath and watched the silver-haired man who was now standing in front of her.
Kiara took a very good look at the man's clothes in front of her, she had seen the clothes the man was wearing from the historical movies she had seen.
Dressed in military-style uniforms with ornaments that he didn't understand. The black color on the uniform of the man in front of her looks very suitable once, highlighting his unusually beautiful face to look at.
Kiara just realized it, she just heard this language that she had never heard, but she understood it. She was wary of the silver-haired man who had been looking at her from earlier.
"You don't want to talk to me? All right." He took a step closer and saw Kiara.
"You are in Winterridge, in the Graqudian empire, and I am the head of the Winterridge family, Duke Noah Winterridge." His voice in explaining was very calm, but Kiara became very frightened.
Kiara pinched her own hand.
"Auh!" This hurts. This is real.
Kiara looked around so restlessly and she found a mirror in front of her. She walked over to reach the mirror that was in the corner of the room. There she saw her usual self, with brown hair down.
Dissatisfied with looking at herself, she opened the door to the porch of his room, and instantly the cold air that froze her instantly attacked him.
Noah pulled the blanket as he walked up to Kiara and enveloped the bewildered woman in front of him. He closed the door and took the bewildered Kiara to sit down in a chair.
"Winterridge is a very cold region. You can be frozen if you open the door during the storm."
Kiara raised her face, looking at Noah, who was talking to her.
Kiara was sure that her place was in the spring! You know spring? A season where the air is warm!
Then, why is it now in a place that has a deadly blizzard like this?
Kiara swallowed her saliva.
"Ho-how am I here?" Her eyes trembled when she saw Noah. The red eyes stared at her intently, the smaller and weak-looking woman in front of her really didn't remember anything that happened.
"You don't remember?"
"I only knew I was on my way to my office, and then a strange emblem and light appeared...." Kiara's head hurts when she thinks about it. Strange light and strange emblem... could she have died?
"I'm already in the afterlife?" She asked Noah, who was still looking at her.
"You didn't hear me? You're that in Winterridge. You're not dead."
"Then why can I be here?" Kiara kept asking the same thing. It went around in circles because she was confused and wanted an answer immediately. No! Something that makes sense.
"I found you while I was hunting. You really don't remember anything."
Kiara looked up her head more, her eyes filled with tears, she wagged at Noah.
"Tell me what's going on..."
"Your name?"
"Ah?" Kiara didn't understand the meaning of the man in front of her, who spoke strangely to her.
"At least tell me your name first." The longer Kiara looked at Noah, the harder it became to distract her. A face that he can hardly find in the real world.
"Ki-Kiara...."
**
The voice of a horse sounded. Along with his black-haired personal bodyguard, Noah hunted to finish off the monsters that dared to break into his territory.
Noah said this was just a simple warm-up to make his body, which hadn't practiced for a long time, move. As a person with powerful power, he always wants to move his body.
"Duke, we will arrive at the lake in a while." Garnet, who was spurring the horse next to Noah, told Noah to be alert immediately, Garnet behaved very vigilantly and dedicated his life to the master he had given his vows to.
They know that near the lake, monsters often appear, so they can directly confront many monsters when they are there.
When the lake was in sight, the two also immediately saw a group of orcs drinking the lake water that never froze even though the blizzard occurred very severely.
The two of them drew out their swords, and together with the pace of their horses, the two finished off the orcs quickly and easily. Makes the white snow red because of the blood that hits it.
"Duke, are you injured?" asked Garnet, who saw Noah wash his sword in the lake water.
"No."
Hearing the answer from the master he served, Garder smiled. Of course, they could not injure the grand master just because of this kind of small fight.
Garder has always admired Noah's ability, just to slash the orcs, Noah does not need a powerful sword move.
Noah put the sword that had been cleaned into its sheath. He looked at the pile of orc corpses they slaughtered just now. No attack from the orcs could hit them. It seems that he has to go deeper into the forest to hunt the monsters.
Noah's nose suddenly twitched because he felt a very good fragrance. Amidst the fishy smell of the blood of the orcs, how could this sweet fragrance be smelled by him?
Noah immediately turned around and looked towards the lake. From there he smelled the sweet fragrance. It was so obvious that Noah wanted to find out immediately what was the cause of this fragrant fragrance was .
"What's the matter, Duke?" asked Garnet, puzzled by Noah's sudden expression and movements.
His eyes sharpened, and Noah didn't respond to Garnet's remarks at all. He continued to watch the direction of the lake intently. He was very sure that if the sweet fragrance came from there, suddenly a red light appeared in the middle of the lake.
Noah and Garnet widened their eyes. The extremely red light dazzled the eyes and slowly brought up a woman who was inside.
The woman's brown eyes met Noah's red eyes.
Thump!
Noah's heart skipped a beat. He then watched the woman lose her consciousness. It was then that the red beam disappeared and the woman's body did not float anymore. Noah quickly caught her.
Noah manages to save the mysterious woman and take her to his castle.
With his dark horse, while carrying the woman he saved, Noah arrives at the castle and becomes the attention of the knights and servants.
"Call the doctor," Noah said, shouting at them all.
The butler, who heard him, immediately executed Noah's order. He immediately went to call the doctor.
"You change her clothes." Noah looked at the maid in front of him with a sharp gaze while giving orders.
Fortunately, the woman was rescued on time. If Noah wasn't there at that time, then he could have drowned to death or frozen to death, or... died of monsters.
"What about the circumstances?" Noah asked the doctor, who had examined the mysterious woman he had rescued just now.
Noah had also told the waiter to change his wet clothes.
"Everything is fine. It's just that we don't know until when he comes to his senses, Duke."
Noah nodded. He moved his hand to ask the doctor to come out. Garnet, who was in the room, approached Noah.
"Duke, the clothes that the woman used just now are so strange.." Garnet's voice was cautious. He kept watching the woman in front of him.
"Garnet come out."
Noah didn't realize that the clothes Kiara was wearing were very strange. He has never seen women wear such clothes in this empire.
"Okay, Duke." Garnet immediately lowered his head and executed Noah. ordered what he exited the room and stood guard at the door so that no one would disturb Noah, who was inside.
As for Noah, he approached Kiara and gazed her face. The woman he found was not ugly. She also had a very good fragrance, and Noah liked it.
That sweet fragrance comes from...
"So, this..." Noah raised Kiara's hand, he looked at Kiara's scratched fingertips.
Noah approached Kiara's finger to her nose, sniffing her with a smile. Then, inserting it into her smooth run, Noah smuggled Kiara's finger for a second and felt the sweetness.
"Sweet." Again, he smiled as he looked at Kiara.
