Chapter 447 The Journey Is Usually The Part That You Remember Anyway



Every sound was amplified in the silence that accompanied the snowfall, and every movement was a potential disturbance.

The silent rustle of leafless branches in the breeze, the whispers of snowflakes kissing the ground, and the distant hoot of an owl stood out against the white landscape\'s stillness.

The group would come to a halt every now and then. Alexia\'s sharp eyes would scan the sky, a mana arrow nocked and ready.

Marcus would tighten his grip on his axe, his gaze fixed on the path ahead. Ava would press her back against a tree trunk, daggers in hand, while Garrett listened to the forest\'s subtle sounds.

And Erik, palms to the ground, could feel the silent rustle of dormant life beneath the snow, ready to summon it if necessary.

This was their new reality: a journey through the cold and snow, always alert and prepared, drawing strength from one another as they ventured deeper into the unknown. But that didn\'t stop them from talking.

Every single one of them introduced themselves to the other, primarily to get Erik to know them. Garrett\'s gaze was fixed as he began his story. "Like Marcus, I was born and raised in the village."

"It\'s a place near and dear to my heart," he began, his voice as measured as his words. "I\'ve seen many seasons change, people come and go, and children grow into warriors. I became a tracker and hunter not by choice but because it was necessary." He stopped, his gaze sweeping the white landscape around them.

"When you live in a forest village, you quickly learn to adapt and read the signs that nature leaves you. My father taught me how to hunt and track, and my mother taught me about medicinal plants. When my Brain Crystal Power manifested, it only solidified my path."

Ava scolded Garrett, her brows knitted together in a feigned scowl.

"Oh, Garrett, stop talking like you\'ve got a stick in your ass," she\'d chastised, her words losing their stern edge as she burst out laughing.

The twinkle in her eyes revealed her amusement, starkly contrasting the snow-covered landscape around them. She turned toward Erik amid their laughter, her expression a playful mix of curiosity and mischief.

"Hey, Erik, do you want to know how I met Marcus?" she asked, her lips curving upward into a grin. Erik blinked in surprise before responding, caught off guard by Ava\'s sudden inquiry. His breath fogged up in the cold winter air as he nodded and let out a light chuckle.

"Yes, I\'d love to hear that story," he said, his tone reflecting his genuine curiosity. The trip through the snow-covered forest had suddenly become much more enjoyable. As she began her story, Ava\'s eyes twinkled with mischief.

"Well," she said, smiling broadly at Marcus, "our paths crossed in the most unforgettable way when we were just little kids." As she began her story, her gaze was drawn to the winter sky.I think you should take a look at

"It was the middle of summer. Marcus, always the daring one, had decided he could take on a beehive on his own," she began, softly chuckling at the memory.

"He\'d armed himself with a stick and a silly little homemade shield, probably thinking he was the village\'s mightiest warrior." He thought the beehive, which was hanging low from a tree branch, would be an easy target.

Ava laughed and shook her head as she remembered. "As you might expect, things did not go as planned. Marcus whacks the hive, and the next thing he knows, he\'s fleeing for his life, pursued by a swarm of angry bees."

Her laughter was contagious, making everyone laugh, including Marcus, who was flushed crimson. He ran straight into a laundry line in haste, becoming engulfed in sheets and bloomers. He ran around like a ghost, still being chased by the bees.

"I was there, watching the scene play out." Ava was in tears by this point, her laughter echoing through the crisp winter air. Garrett, who always seemed to put on a stern face, had a smile tugging at his lips.

"That\'s how we met," Ava said, wiping her tears away. "I was the unfortunate girl who wore those bloomers." Marcus nodded, still red-faced but laughing. "That is correct. "I was a stupid kid," he admitted, shaking his head.

"At the very least, it resulted in a lifelong friendship." The group\'s laughter echoed around them like a beacon of warmth in the cold winter landscape.

Despite their serious mission, these moments reminded them of their shared histories and bonds. It made the challenges ahead appear less daunting.

The group continued until they could no longer ignore the increasing chill of the winter air as the sun began to dip below the horizon, painting the snowy landscape with pink and purple hues. They decided to camp for the night because the twilight cast long shadows across their path.

Marcus took the lead in collecting dry wood, his breath fogging in the cold air due to his bulky frame and muscular arms. Ava and Alexia trailed behind, their nimble hands picking up smaller twigs and branches, their faces lit up by the fading sunlight.

With his years of wilderness experience, Garrett quickly identified a suitable location for their camp that would provide them with some shelter from the bitter winds. Meanwhile, Erik was busy making small fire pits, his hands expertly molding the snowy ground.

Several fires soon began to crackle, casting dancing shadows across the snowy expanse around them.

The fire\'s heat gradually began to ward off the freezing temperatures, creating a cocoon of warmth for the group, which was only amplified by Erik erecting a dome around them to protect them from the winter frost.

The flickering flames illuminated their faces, casting an array of shadows that danced along with the crackling fire.

The people huddled around the fires, their breath visible in the frigid winter air. The heat seeped into their frozen bones as the flickering flames warmed their bodies.

The orange glow of the fires against the wooden backdrop created a picturesque scene—a small island of warmth in an icy wilderness.
