In the ice cream parlor, two customers were discussing the wanted posters of the "Four Laments".

*Customer 1:* Why do they still hang these posters? It's been 100 years; they can't still be alive.

*Customer 2:* Legend has it they can live for thousands of years. I think it's just a story.

The owner of the ice cream parlor, looking like he was 22 with white hair and light clothes, interrupts.

*Ice Cream Parlor Owner:* Who are these "Four Laments" everyone's talking about?

*Customer 3:* Ah, given your age, you might not know the story. About 100 years ago, the Four Laments devised an evil plan to assassinate the king.

*Customer 2:* While everyone was celebrating, they were acting stealthily towards the king's chambers.

*Customer 1:* But wasn't there a guard who saw everything happen? I can't remember his name.

*Customer 3:* Ah, Hícaro. He alerted the guards.

*Customer 2:* But they couldn't stop it, right?

*Customer 3:* Yes, but the king ended up dying sadly. They tried to flee unpunished, but the knights of justice appeared. After a battle that destroyed part of the castle, they were imprisoned in places that suppressed their powers.

*Customer 1:* But they escaped.

*Customer 3:* Yes, The Immortal Dead Soul, didn't escape, but put some of its essence into a doll incredibly similar to a common person and disappeared. Its main body is still trapped, never dies, but continues trying every day to break free.

*Customer 1:* The leader was very powerful, he made an ice pillar that only melted after 90 years, the White Death.

*Ice Cream Parlor Owner:* Ah, so that's what happened. Come to think of it, how these events changed history...

[Time Passage - 100 Years Ago]

Noeli: "Lesnoche" (White Death), come, we need your help, Luiz.

Luiz: Why do we have to do this? Our job isn't to defend. Why did they make us organize this party?

Lesnoche: Ugh, what a drag. Today is the kingdom's anniversary. We have to help. Look at Rick's invention, a screen that shows images with magic, transmitting everything that this thing, he calls a camera, sees.

*Hícaro:* Hi hi hi, I'm y-y-y-your b-b-b-big fan, White Death. (he stutters)

*Lesnoche:* You can call me by name, Lesnoche. Pleasure, what's your name?

*Hícaro:* I'm Hícaro, sir. I'm here to ask on behalf of the king for you to dismiss Rick and go to the king's chambers.

*Lesnoche:* Sure, let's go, guys.

*Noeli:* Let's go.

*Luiz:* What a pain, miserable king.

Rick suddenly appears.

*Rick:* Dude, I had to use a lot of mana to get here with the new teleport, which I've created. I hope it's something important.

*Lesnoche:* Well then, let's go.

They walk until Hícaro starts to have black eyes and laughs.

*Hícaro:* You hahahahaahahaha, fell for it like ducklings.

*Lesnoche:* Who are you? What have you done with Hícaro?

*Hícaro=???:* With Hícaro, you'd better worry about someone else. Behind the door, hihihihih.

*Noeli:* Aaaaaaah, the king, they're dead.

*Rick:* I see the exercise coming here. You won't get out of this easily.

*???:* Hahahahahahahahahaha.

*Luiz:* Guard here.

Chief Captain of the Royal Guard - they are the conspirators.

*???:* They're here, help!

Lesnoche uses the icy breath to break the wall. They jump to flee, but 10 people, known as the Knights of Justice, appear:

Lesnoche: What are you doing? The conspirator is up there. Why are you doing this?

Pandora: Because you still haven't admitted what you did?

Lian: We believe in you, but appearances can be deceiving unfortunately.

Luiz: What the hell are you talking about? It doesn't make sense. Why all of a sudden you started accusing us, you assholes.

Thiago: I never trusted you, but the others I never imagined would do this.

Luiz: What the hell did we do, you idiots.

Takashi: Stop using those profane words. Scum is scum.

Yuri: We don't need to say anything, because you already know. So just let us arrest you. Please, don't force us to use force.

Noeli: We didn't do anything. I I I didn't do any...

Noeli lets out a piercing scream that makes everyone see their most painful memories.

Rick: No, please. I'm not a stranger. I'm your son too. Pay attention to me. I don't want to be excluded again.

Lesnoche: I'm sorry, I ran away. I didn't mean to freeze him. I'm not guilty. It was unintentional. I loved him. I would never do that. I'm not a monster. I am not Muerte Blanca. I don't want to stay here and it's too cold.

Kaito: I knew about this power. We were already preparing.

Lesnoche: Noeli, calm down. Please, breathe.

Iris: How did you get out of her power?

Lesnoche: After that.

Lesnoche: Calm Noeli down, let's fight and finish this to go back home.

(Noeli calms down)

Rick: My God, I don't want to see this again. It was because of you.

Luiz: I shouldn't have tried to argue with you. I don't care anymore. I'll make you so broken that you won't even know where you are.

Noeli: I'm sorry.

Noeli starts to cry.

Lesnoche: I will make you pay for this.

Kazuki: Haha, funny how you would do that.

Bakugo: Yeah, haha.

Rick jumps at them with all speed, pulling out a mechanical glove and hitting Kazuki squarely in the face, making him fly away.

Rick: Come at me, you idiots.

Iris: Leave it to me.

Mathias: I'll go. I heard he's very strong, isn't he? Haha.

He faces Rick.

Rick says with an arrogant smile: "Those who talk the most are the first to run away."

Luiz: I'll help you, Rick. Easy.

Thiago speaks low: "You stay with me."

Noeli: Don't touch my friends.

She grabs her harp, but when she goes to play, Kazuki uses a flash of light, making her unable to see anything and not being able to play.

Kazuki: Man, you idiot, come here. She can't play at all. We don't have the protections anymore.

Bak

ugo: Ok, man.

Noeli regains her senses and uses the harp on Kazuki, but before she starts to delve deeper into his mind, Bakugo throws a fireball at her, making her recoil.

Noeli: Damn.

Lesnoche creates an ice barrier around him, Pandora, Lian, Takashi, Yuki, and Kaito.

Lesnoche: Ah, ah. I will defeat you and find out what's going on easily.

Pandora: Easily? Haha, you're getting ahead of yourself?

Lian: If you're trying to belittle us is?

Takashi: Well, let's see.

Yuri and Kaito at the same time: "I don't care."

They jump on Lesnoche. Yuri makes several clones, and Lesnoche doesn't know what to do, but decides to step back. However, the world spins, he stumbles, and taking advantage of the moment, Yuri attacks Lesnoche by launching several ice crystals, making him recoil.

Lesnoche: What happened?

Soon he stops seeing and becomes disoriented. He uses Cassar's eye to see the enemies' mana, goes after whoever is doing it, but Lian teleports him close and tells him to be careful. Lesnoche regains his sight and advances with extreme speed towards Yuki, kicking him with a force that makes him hit Takashi. Lesnoche makes an ice arc and around it starts snowing as if a very harsh winter had arrived.

Pandora: Don't let him do that!

Everyone gets confused.

Lian: Why?

Pandora: Don't you know that this power makes him practically invisible in the snow? He has an absurd ability in the snow. When he was little, he and his parents visited Russia and, there, in a house in the countryside, he unlocked his powers, which ended up getting out of control. Unintentionally, he froze his family, killing them. He fled and got lost in Russia, having to live in the ice, being pursued and called a monster. His hair turned white, he learned to hide in the ice and, with an ice arc, he started hunting polar bears to feed himself. People who tried to bring him back and help him understand that it wasn't his fault were not heard. Still, he continued to blame himself for a long time. Some say that even if you see him in front of you, he looks like the snow itself, indistinguishable from the environment. After leaving there, he participated in the war, where everyone on his side died, and he alone defeated the army, hiding in the absolute cold and snow up to his waist, where the cold didn't affect him. He commanded the snow not to produce smoke, and with each shot, a person died without knowing why. He is so dangerous that his secret weapon was never revealed. Now, he gained the name White Death, the only visible thing on the battlefield, a cold and painless death, the most terrifying way to die.

Lian: And now?

Takashi: I'm here. Get off, damn it.

Yuki: It hurts. Feels like I've been burned, but it's cold.

Pandora: Do everything I say, okay?

Takashi: I'm stronger than him.

Takashi runs looking for Lesnoche, being surprised by an arrow coming towards his head. He puts on an ice armor to defend himself, but is thrown back by the impact. Lesnoche attacks from behind, and Takashi competes with strength, but Lesnoche takes advantage of the moment to freeze him, creating a pillar that reaches the height of the castle tower, which is about 15 meters. Before being caught in the attack, Lian teleports Takashi back.

Takashi: Damn it, I almost got hit. And I won't come back.

Pandora: You can stay and follow what I say.

Meanwhile, Rick...
