Lachesis was stunned; she was at a loss for what to do.

Immediately, a small hope arose in the girl's heart—maybe her younger sister could come back safely?

At the same time, a certain doubt also arose in my mind.

'If my sister really comes back safe and sound, what did all that I saw before even mean?'

...............................

After eating her fill, she felt warm all over, but after walking in the snow for a short while, the girl started shivering from the cold.

Forward, forward!

As far as the eye could see, there was only a vast expanse of white.

The road was hard to find, and the more Sasha walked, the more uncertain she felt.

Forward, forward!

Did we not take the wrong turn?

After all, I'd only been to town once, and it was snowing...

We can't stop, or we might not be able to move anymore.

Forward, my sister is waiting for me to find someone to go back and rescue her.

Forward! We haven't avenged the attempted theft of sheep and grain yet.

Keep going, we haven't found Dad yet!

As Sasha gradually lost sensation in her hands and feet, a fire burned within her.

There are still so many things I want to do, how can I give up here?

Relying on memory, I may now rely more on intuition.

The girl walked and walked.

Finally, she saw the outline of the town!

found it!

Sasha cried out in her heart, wanting to walk faster, but the size of her steps was no longer under her control.

It's okay, we'll just walk a little slower.

The destination is just ahead; once you get there, you've already succeeded halfway!

The moment she stepped into the town, a light flashed before the girl's eyes.

It's hard to describe what color it is, but it evokes a sense of holiness, grandeur, and solemnity.

Sasha was stunned; she thought she might be hallucinating.

The light vanished in an instant, and only after regaining her senses did the girl realize that she had stopped.

No, get moving, get moving!

Under the girl's forceful command, his feet moved reluctantly once again.

One step, two steps, three steps...

With stiff steps, Sasha arrived at the gate of the Baron's mansion.

Open the door

Open the door

I called out twice, but no sound came out.

If you can't reach your hand out, then bump into it.

Hey, hey, hey.

Hey, hey, hey.

Bang, bang!

..................................

Is it going to get better soon?

Visitors even on such a cold day!

The maid reluctantly ran out of the house to open the door, and as soon as the door opened, an ice cube crashed into her arms.

"what!!!"

After taking several steps back, I looked closely and realized it wasn't an ice cube at all, but clearly a girl!

"What's wrong with you?"

Mustering his courage, he walked up to the girl and called out twice, but she lay motionless on the ground, as if she were dead.

"Dead, dead!"

"Oh no! Someone has frozen to death at the door!"

Hearing the maid's shouts, a large group of people quickly ran out.

Even the Baron was alarmed. He came out wrapped in thick clothes and saw what was going on, and immediately felt extremely unlucky.

"Stop staring, throw her..."

Seeing that she was a young woman, probably about the same age as his son, Baron Alec felt a pang of pity.

"Find a hole and bury it, don't leave it on the street."

"Yes!"

"..."

"Sir, she seems to still be breathing!"

The baron was taken aback, then heard his son's swordsmanship teacher say that the girl had delivered firewood to their home.

Baron Ricky never cared where his firewood came from, but since this girl had some connection to the Baron's mansion, he figured he might as well lend a hand.

"Carry her inside."

With a word from the baron, the girl's life was saved.

"..."

"........"

I feel warm all over, and I just want to sleep like this forever.

But it seems there's something important waiting for me to do.

Oh, right, my sister is waiting for me to find someone to rescue her!

Sasha suddenly opened her eyes and sat up straight in bed.

"How long have I slept?"

"About half a day."

Please help me!

"OK"

Aman smiled and said, "But you have to explain things clearly first, because I need to report to the Baron."

.....................................

My father did not return home all night, and his attempt to organize the villagers to search the mountains failed.

While staying at home to spend the winter, one day all the sheep in the sheepfold were stolen;

If you hold your tongue, someone will take advantage of the situation and try to enter the house and steal your food.

Left with no other choice, they had to come to the Baron's mansion in town to seek help (or try their luck).

“My father is a man of his word; he didn’t skip delivering the firewood on purpose.”

Sasha's voice trembled with tears: "He didn't mean it..."

"Firewood is a minor issue; we can buy more firewood from the surrounding households by spending some money. It's just a bit of a hassle."

Aman quickly replied, "I'll report to the Baron and set off with you immediately!"

The girl was stunned for a moment, then gave the kind person a grateful smile.

"..."

"You want me to send someone with you to the village?"

Baron Ricky stroked his chin: "That's certainly possible, just a word from him."

"However, you seem particularly enthusiastic this time, Oman?"

He knew best what kind of person his son's swordsmanship teacher was.

There's no reason why someone would be so eager to help.

“That girl has a fierce streak and good perseverance. I’m planning to take her as my apprentice,” Aman said honestly.

Ah, I see.

Ricky suddenly realized, "Then let's hurry up and go, don't delay."

Volume 1: Chapter 616 Taking on Disciples

Aman originally intended to take people there herself, as long as the girl described the exact location of her home to her.

But Sasha insisted on going with them. She was worried about her sister and wanted to see her even a little bit sooner!

Oman was deeply moved, as was another servant who was with him.

It was freezing cold outside, and he had to run from the town to the village and then back to the town. How tiring that must have been for him!

But this girl had just escaped death, and without hesitation, she wanted to go and save her sister...

Human hearts are made of flesh and blood. The man wiped away his tears and said decisively, "Let's go, I'll carry you across!"
