-??? Snow Forest-
"So cold..." A red haired young man with dark spots over his hair muttered as he in the middle of a snowy forest under a snow storm.
He took large strides upon each and every step, picking himself up over and over as his boots sinked considerably over the flooding of the snow all over the place, the tip of the trees towering over him swayed slightly with the strong and powerful wjnds, some cascading down below in a bid to freeze his already cold body.
"Dammit, where is everyone?" He once again muttered with a low, slow, and solemn voice, drowned out by a defeaning sound of winds passing over his ears. He continued to caressed his hands to make warm and wash away the cold.
Having found himself in the middle of nowhere so suddenly with no warning up in the North of the Continent, not even a notice of what actually transpired before him, the red haired young man was helpless and lost in the wilderness. He tried searching for his companions and around in hopes of finding civilizations, but hours had passed, and nothing was in fruition.
"Did that bitch seriously left me all alone because we had a fight over some orange juice, who the hell does she think she is! This is too cruel, this is torture!" He angrily stomped on the ground, creating a small hole on the ground, he continued stomping to melt away the freezing temperature seeping inside of him. "Once i find them again, i make sure she swallow this thing whole, hah, i make sure she cry this time around! Hahahaha!" Under the blurry gaze of the snow storm and sea of trees before him, the red haired young man laughed like a mad man who've lost all his reasoning.
'But also, we've been traveling the northern part of the continent, we've might gotten truly seperated in the process, but is this how really bad the storm in this place is?!' He thought. With a destination to head for the demon king's palace, him was seperated out of his companions presence so suddenly.
"Still, where exactly am i? I've been walking for hours to no end in sight, or did she really perhaps get angry at me this time around? Crap, i should probably apologize the next time we meet again, dammit!!" The red haired young man proceeded to walk across the randomness and wilderness with no proper direction to head himself towards to. "Come on, it was just an orange juice! If you want, i make sure to make it once a week if it makes you happy, so please, appear already!" He felt a bit regretful and shame upon himself with a bead of tear dropping out of his eye for thinking of such depravity towards his missing companions.
He felt lonely and weak at the same time, his wish currently was to be with them again, it's been quite a while since he traveled solo, and he's back with himself, alone again.
...
"Huff Huff Huff Puff " Breathing in succintly as he tried to stay alive and maintain his consciousness, the looming death shadowing over his small figure amongst the great trees, the freezing cold took a greater hold of him as time passed unknown despite the thick clothes he's wearing, a thick black shirt, a red thick jacket with white furs, and dark thick pants. "Tsk! I know this is a bad idea to do on the Northern Continent, people warned me not to be seen or make my presence be known or the face of danger attracting towards me- Whatever!" He suddenly gritted his teeth, with a large axe from his back, he grabbed it with his strong hand covered in bandages, and took a knee with his legs on the ground covered by snow.
In a bid of concentration, his muscles suddenly protuded and buldged strong through his clothes, the ground shook slightly, a tremor was felt that some of the animals hiding away were scared into showing themselves. The red haired young man with dark spots over his head, the soil he was standing on suddenly cracked in a very surprising manner where dust and smalls rocks flew in a matter of milisecond that was followed right after as a loud defeaning boom of the sound barrier breaking was produced and the young man himself was already up across the sky, piercing the thick formation of clouds across the heavens.
"Tap " The young man's gripped of his axe was dashingly pulled out in the midst of the chaotic snow storm. "Swing" He pulled it out so fast, a twinkle of lightning was produced in the heart of the sky, and a slashed of his weapon was.
"BOOM " As another sonic boom was produced, but a crackle louder than what was transpired from earlier. The surrounding sky of flooding thick clouds was cleared out perfectly of any obstructions, allowing the sun that sits above the heavens to finally lay its scorching light upon the land. The storm was cleared away, the snow was washed away, and the red haired young man posed himself dramatically as he stayed for a good few minutes in the air and started to slowly descended from the sky after such a powerful declaration of his arms and weapon.
But not before too long, his eyes wandered from above to search for any, and after a handful minute of searching, his eyes landed on a horizon and saw a thick block of ice- No, it was a towering wall that's reaching even the very sky itself. It's a wall of pristene gray or white solid object, an ice wall per say. Other than the height, what's more concerning was its existence upon itself.
'Is that-? What is that? A Wall? Is there something that's supposed to exists like that at the north of the continent!!' The young man with his red haired flailing as he dashingly descended, big questions quickly arose from within him.
...
"Step Step Step Dash " With explosives strides as his boots leave a clear large trail from behind, making the snow erupt all over the place, the young man dashed without falter in his movements and a gleamer of seriousness in his eyes towards the direction of the large structure he saw.
'This is probably a bad idea. There's probably danger lurking in that place, but i have no choice in the first place, or im gonna die of freezing myself to death in this vast wilderness!' Despite his seconds thoughts, he couldn't make himself stopped in the process as he already ran towards to.
He knows it and that's it quite a massive weakness of his well-being being exposed under the freezing temperature, as too much of it would weaken him, physically and mentally. Given the fact he's already spend too much time outside, doubts swelled over his head whether he could last much longer until he reached the large structure he saw from afar. 'How far is that?! I've been running since earlier!!' He exclaimed inwardly.
"Something's- wrong with my body-?" He painfully and weakly exclaimed.
Still, despite the feeling of drowsiness, tiredom, and weaknesses crashing into him like a tidal wave, he kept going across the snowy forest. The storm for some reason which should've been made clear by him, somehow, for some reason, came back like nothing happened, with every drop harder and colder than before.
"Huff Huff Keugh!!" He gasped for air as the cold that in his body that had already seeped its way in deep weighed upon him greatly like a heavy lift, he tried to muster all the strength he could muster and continued to run. He ran, and ran, and ran, with his already depleted energy, he could barely feel his numbing body that his limbs turned sluggish, his mind losing its sanity and consciousness. And just like that "Puff " the young man fell down on the snow soil, his face planted across smeared the ground.
"What's wrong... with this place? Why... am i getting... so weak...?" As he fell, the large structure still seemingly far away from where he landed, he felt that he even barely closed the distance between him and that large structure. He raised his trembling hands and head to reach out, only for his body to finally gave in to the fatigue and fell asleep. As the feeling of drowsiness and weaknesses of his to knock him out cold, he slowly being buried under the snow storm.
-???-
The night finally carved its way in, and the young man still in deep sleep. "Crackle Crackle Crackle " slowly, out of nowhere, throughout the snowy forest where his body lie beneath the plain of snow, multiple red dots glow under the shade of darkness, beneath the shades of trees, and watching over his sleeping figure.
Three particular figures stood out amongst the group of shadowy spectators; A man with six eyes, long hair, kimono, and a sword on his hips. Another adorning replesendent golds and jewels around his body, while holding two golden fans. And a short haired man with stripes all over his body.
They all continued to watch in silence, while bearing sharp fangs protuding out of their mouth. The aura they emenated was nothing short of unfathomable for they stand in the unknown.
