The sky brightened over the snowy plain, and the sun slowly emerged. It looked like a long-lost good weather. The heavy snow last night had quietly stopped at some point, leaving only thick white frost on the ground.
"Woo..."
With a soft sob, Alyona slowly opened her confused eyes, and then when she felt the warmth surrounding her at that moment, her mind buzzed... She subconsciously opened her eyes and wanted to get up.
However, when she saw clearly the "thing" she was holding, she stopped her movements abruptly, stiffened her body, and dared not move.
"..."
After noticing the movement beside her, Griseo moved slightly and then subconsciously snuggled into the arms of the person next to her.
After a while, the little loli's steady breathing sounded again regularly.
When Alyona saw that Griseo, who was held by her, did not wake up, she breathed a sigh of relief and then continued to maintain the current position, for fear of waking her up again.
After calming down, she finally noticed that her current posture was wrong, and her face began to feel slightly hot.
Although Alyona didn't know how she was transferred here to sleep last night, no matter how she looked at it now, she was the one who was shamelessly hugging Griseo...
Obviously, it was too late to adjust her position now. In order not to wake her up, Alyona could only continue to maintain the embarrassing posture of holding the little girl.
After that, as time went by, Alyona's originally pale face became redder and redder... There were even some signs of smoking.
...
So, after Griseo woke up and slowly opened her eyes, what she saw was Alyona's face, red like a tomato...
"꒪꒫꒪)?"
The little girl was stunned, and after blinking her big eyes, she became slightly awake.
After waking up, Griseo stretched out her arms, gently hugged Alyona, and then pressed her delicate little face against her.
After feeling the burning heat on her face, Griseo asked in a confused voice, "It's so hot... Is Alyona sick?"
"Ah? No... No! I'm fine!"
When Alyona felt the cool face pressed against her, she shuddered and leaned back with her head raised. If she hadn't been held, she would have jumped up.
"Really? Why is your face so hot?"
Looking at Alyona's excitement, Griseo's big violet eyes, which were still misty, flashed with doubt. Then, she wanted to stick to her again to confirm.
"Ah, I'm really fine! It's just... It's just a little hot!" As she said that, Alyona quickly raised her hand to block Griseo's soft little face that was pressed against her again.
Listening to Alyona's full-bodied voice, Griseo did not go any further after being blocked but stopped her movements.
Then, she raised her little face, looked into the girl's light green eyes, and said seriously, "Well, okay, if you feel uncomfortable, remember to tell Griseo. Griseo promised to take good care of you."
"Got it..."
After seeing the seriousness in those violet eyes, Alyona choked slightly and panicked a little in her heart.
Then she turned her face away gently, no longer daring to look at those eyes that seemed bright to her.
After getting the answer she wanted, Griseo nodded gently, then slowly let go of the arms that had just hugged Alyona's slender waist and sat up carefully.
It's almost time. Although the little loli went to bed late last night, it's time to get up now.
"Ah~ Alyona, lie down for a while, I'll go out and find you something to eat." Griseo covered her mouth and yawned gently, then blinked her big eyes and said softly.
"No, Griseo, you lie down for a while. I'll go out. After all, it's not safe outside."
Hearing this, Alyona supported her body and slowly sat up, with a look of disapproval on her little face that was still flushed.
"Actually, it's not as serious as Sister Lois said. Those people outside can't hurt me, not to mention that Mr. Wolf and the others are protecting me." After saying that, Griseo lifted a corner of the quilt and jumped off the bed with a swift movement.
Feeling the cold air outside, the little loli squinted her eyes gently and adapted to it.
After Griseo got off the bed, Alyona stopped hesitating and sat on the bed to put on her clothes.
After all, she was not as strong as the little MANTIS. In a place with extremely low temperatures like the Ursus Snowfield, she couldn't wear thin clothes like the little loli and wander around.
Even when she was sitting on the bed and slowly putting on her clothes, Alyona still felt the chill. And this chill also successfully made the blush on her little face fade away quickly.
"..."
While Alyona was getting dressed, Griseo lifted her bare feet, walked around the supplies in front of her, and walked outside.
Then, as expected, she saw the two Yetis guarding the warehouse.
"Good morning, Sister Lois, Brother Leos."
"Hey, little Griseo got up so early. Are you hungry? Sister will make you some breakfast."
Lois, who was originally very bored, instantly became energetic after seeing Griseo and asked with a smile.
Leos, who was standing aside, was almost the same, and instantly turned over, and then also greeted, "Good morning, Griseo."
"No, I want to go out by myself."
After listening to Lois's words, Griseo gently shook her little head and then told her thoughts truthfully.
Before, Griseo stayed in the warehouse honestly because she didn't want to cause trouble for the Yetis, and she herself was also an obedient child.
But she had been here for a long time. She wanted to go out for a walk and talk to Yelena about how to arrange the task of delivering information.
Because she didn't get up too early in the morning, Griseo originally thought that Yelena might have sent someone back to find Talulah.
But when she felt it carefully, she found that none of her companions were missing. They were either in the world of the painting or in the mine. So, she wanted to ask now.
"But..."
After hearing what Griseo said, Lois and Leos both showed a trace of doubt on their faces.
