Let’s challenge snowy mountain

Editor: Dre, John Carter

“Perhaps something like this.”

Kazane close Golem Maker Creator Mode and point the tip of her staff [[White Blaze]] towards the ground and activate a skill.

“Skill: Golem Maker, Mr. Mountain.”

GoGoGo… The stone from it's surroundings started to move, and then a human shaped golem clasping two wooden poles that Kazane prepared beforehand appeared.

In its back, a square rucksack like protruding object existed, and Kazane boarded on it while huffing.

“The size is, hm. Yup, perfect.”

After she entered it, Kazane inserts the glass plate she bought at the town to the golem’s chest area. It fits as she expected and stuck with a clicking sound.

“Yosh, let’s go, Mr. Mountain.”
With that, Mr. Mountain sluggishly walks forward.

 

Golem ‘Mr. Mountain’ is a remodelled golem. Or to be more specific, it is made by removing the inner part from default golem and made it so that it can carry people. Added with two canes, its stability will also increased.

 

“Even though I can climb until half way when this is still a game.”

 

Inside of Mr. Mountain the golem, Kazane grumbles about the difference between right now and the game. Kazane didn’t have any memory of changing equipment for her character when it was a game, whether it was in snowy mountain or volcano. Even when she wandered through an ice mountain, or swimming in the ocean, she never catch a cold even once. Even when walking through lava, she will only receive damage and wouldn't melt. (If her character didn’t die though)

(Now that I think about it, it is a terrifying body)

Which remind me, there’s a disgusting group that wore nothing except skin coloured underwear…Kazane remembered a thing from the past. However since she can’t remember anything good, she quickly forgets about it.

 

At any case, even though Kazane who is riding on Mr. Mountain moves slowly, it certainly moves ahead. The glass window is quickly covered with frost, but since the golem is moving by itself, with simple command it didn’t become a problem.

With her fur coat (with hood) to wards off cold, and skill from the first chapter of grimoire [[warm]] to create a synergy effect, she can climb this slippery mountain.

 

Until the halfway point it was a favourable journey.

The more she advanced, gradually the intensity of the snow increased, and finally it became a tremendous snowfall, however Mr. Mountain continue to move forward without care. At the prowess of Mr. Mountain that have exceeded her imagination, Kazane becomes somewhat excited, saying  “Way to go! C’mon!” but since she is alone, halfway the road she starts to read the books she brought.

However, at around halfway from her destination according to the map, Kazane smelled something and order Mr. Mountain to stop.

 

“Hm. Human’s scent.”

Though she thought that being able to smell it in this heavy snow is kind of a miracle, she also thinks that the smell is kind of ominous.

“Ummm.”

Kazane looks at the sky. There is a cruel storm, and without Mr. Mountain, Kazane who didn’t have any mountain climbing experience will undoubtedly freeze to death…it was that kind of weather.

(Well, I’m a bit curious. And if there’s a place to rest then I better not miss it)

If she feels asleep just like when she came to Conrad town, and Mr. Mountain or her Warm magic power run out then it’ll become something terrible. It is a situation that dictated her to search a place to rest.

After considering things to that extent in her head, Kazane orders Mr. Mountain to move in the direction of that scent.

The scent strayed away a bit from the mountain road and outside the forest, from there after descending a little and pass under the cliff, the smell drifted from a little cave ahead.

“Uwah…”

Half her heart thinks that perhaps it is better if she didn’t came here.

“Three people, death.”

The putrid smell of corpses indicated 3 people. Not from being attacked, all frozen to death.

“But this one is fine.”

That is the reason half of her heart thinks it is fortunate that she came here.

Right now the person was unconscious, but there’s one survivor.

“A woman. I think she collapsed because of exhausting her magic power. She must have used ‘Warm’ until the very end.

Since she’s still alive, leaving her here will hurt Kazane's conscience…regardless of whether this is an another world or not.

Since she also needs to warm up herself too, she decided to stay here until the woman wakes up.

The fire made a ‘pachi pachi’ sound.

Ruu Andait vaguely recognizes that somehow she’s in a warm place.

(Warm…)

Though she also feels that it should be impossible, but to meet her end without suffering is nice too…she thinks like that. However something is amiss, as she starts to think, she could feels her head once again complained.

 

“Ah, she's awake. She’s awake.”
“Eh?”

 

Hearing an unfamiliar voice, her consciousness start to return.

When she opens her eyes, there’s a bon fire, and a girl. Of course that girl is Kazane.

“Hello.”

“…Ah, yes.”

Towards Kazane who have raised her hand and greeted her, Ruu replied while still being confused.

“It seems that your consciousness is back properly. First, please drink this.”

Kazane poured the corn soup she have made since awhile ago to a cup and hand it over to Ruu.

“Thank you…very much.”

“It is hot, please be careful.”

“Yes.”

(aw..it is indeed hot. But it warms me)

As she drinks the soup till the last drop, she gradually sees the condition of her surroundings.

“We, were stranded, eh?”
She remembered till the part where she took refuge in a cave. Outside there was a great blizzard, then she used ‘warm’ to somehow preserve their life…

“Erm…”

“What is it?”

Ruu hesitates to ask Kazane. A part of her understands that the fact that there are only the two of them right now might have already answered her question. However, in the case of a what if…she also feels something like that.

“Do you know, where’s my companion?”

She asks the thought she had wanted to know the most.

“…”

While making expression ‘so it comes to this', she points at the inner part of the cave.

“There.”

Ruu looks at the darkness.

“My condolence, when I came, it was only you who still survived.”
It was unknown whether she heard what Kazane have said.

“…”
Ruu totter towards it.

Looking at the silent companions of her, checking whether they are alive or not, pat them, calling their name, finally her voice mixed with sob, and gradually it turned into a crying wail.

 

“Um, I’m not good with this kind of stuff…”

Kazane pretended to not see and muttered.

(There’s a blizzard outside, and it’s already dark, perhaps spending the night here is correct)

At the Cave’s entrance is one of the golem maker series, Mr. Wall is defending them. Because she fears carbon monoxide poisoning, she made a few holes, but it still won’t allow monsters to enter.

(…What to do tomorrow)

Kazane needs to decide what to do with the owner of the crying voice.

(It can’t be left like this)

 

After almost one hour, Ruu returns to the bonfire.

“Hiks Hiks.”
Kazane hands her a handkerchief.

“…I'm sorry.”
Ruu accepts it and wipes her face with it.

Kazane then gave her a corn soup again, she also takes a bread and gives it to her.

“First, eat up. You won’t be able to think of anything hard with an empty stomach.”

“Yes.”

Ruu nods and accept it, as she adds the corn soup to the bread and she eats it slowly, once again tears started to fall down.

(Fuuh…)

Seeing that Kazane feels something unbearable.

(Help me—Yumika!)

She seeks help from her best friend who is not here.
