"Ehehe..." Baiyue couldn't help but let out an uncharacteristic giggle upon hearing Luo'er's rare praise. Her ears, furry and flickering in and out of view, seemed to touch Luo'er's heart in an instant.
"Go on," said Luo'er, rubbing his nose to hide his embarrassment, and then he urged her to continue.
"Well," Baiyue nodded obediently and cleared her throat before resuming her serious tone, "I don't know if it's a coincidence but at the same time as the disintegration of the Aud Empire, the Otherworld's Little Ice Age arrived as expected, and the regions north of the North Territory were once again engulfed by extreme cold. The Aud people were simply unable to resist such a drop in temperature, and the subsequent decrease in food production, and had no choice but to retreat from the Snow Domain in a sorry state. Thus, the Snow Elves, who are resistant to the cold, took advantage of the weather to snatch the Snow Domain back from the hands of the Aud people."
