Chapter 5 Snow Princess
As the sword blade pulled away, Higashino Cang's footsteps slowly turned, his eyes staring at the place where the three warriors were.
One of the warriors seemed to be frightened by this scene, but instead burst into unexpected ferocity. He stepped alternately and quickly approached Higashino Cang and shouted loudly.
“#&%#&…”
For a time, more than a hundred people surrounded Dongyecang with their weapons.
"call……"
Facing a large number of approaching weapons, a rich smell of ice and snow was spit out from Dongye Cang's mouth. The white cloth that was originally floating in the air had been wrapped around Dongye Cang's right arm at some point.
As a rich blue color magnifies in Dongyecang's right eye pupil, strands of ice crystals condense on the eyebrows on the right side of Dongyecang and eyelashes condense into the shape of an ice bird that seems to be flapping its wings and flying high.
"Snow……"
A word like a sigh slowly came out from Higashinocang's mouth.
The sword blade held by Dongye Cang was shining with wisps of blue and white light, and Dongye Cang waved the blade at the more than a hundred people in front of him.
The cold wind whistled, and the ice and snow were flying all over the sky...
A cold wind that seemed to be sweeping down from the top of the eternal iceberg, whizzed past the more than a hundred people who were pointing directly at Dongye Cang in a blink of an eye.
"Crack..."
A series of sounds that made people's scalp numb. In just a moment, there were more than a hundred lifelike ice sculptures in this snow-white world, and even the expressions of these ice sculptures remained fierce and ferocious.
“…Do you like it?”
As Higashino Cang said the second half of the sentence slowly, the blue and white light that appeared in his right eye slowly faded away, attached to his eyebrows, and the ice crystals on his eyelashes also dissipated little by little.
"Bang."
Dongye Cang, who had returned to normal, seemed to have no strength left to kneel on the ground, and could only barely hold the Taidao tightly with both hands to support it on the snow, so as not to fall into the snow.
The white cloth wrapped around Dongyecang's arm was also scattered on the snow, and a large amount of ice and snow quickly gathered around the white cloth as the center.
Soon, the snow and ice condensed into a human form in Dongye Cang's somewhat surprised gaze.
Part of the blue hair was fixed on the top of the head with an ice flower, but the rest was scattered and fluttered slightly with the wind and snow.
And the face covered by a few strands of hair, the extremely delicate facial features are even more beautiful against the blue hair.
The only thing with some flaws is that these extremely beautiful facial features have no expression, and the azure blue eyes seem to show no emotional color.
However, compared to what Kazushi Higashino saw at the beginning, this existence that came out of the ice and snow world is already a little more energetic and real, and vaguely tends to be the iceberg beauty in normal concepts.
However, as the ice and snow elf walked out of the ice and snow towards him, Dong Yecang's expression froze slightly.
‘This...this ice and snow beauty seems to be smaller than I imagined...so a little...'
It is not the kind of small that is generally referred to, but the real smallness. His height and body shape are more like a girl.
"Master, are you not good enough? Do you need me to help you?"
The ice and snow elf stood in front of Higashinocang, with no expression on her face, but her extremely dull voice sounded in her mind.
"No, no."
Higashino Cang gritted his teeth and refused this advice that was equivalent to insulting himself, and stood up again with gritted teeth.
In fact, after this ice and snow elf separated from Dongye Cang's body, the huge pressure that pressed every muscle, bones and even blood in Dongye Cang's body was eliminating.
So at this moment, Higashino Cang might feel his body being hollowed out, but he was barely enough to stand up.
"Master, you are so awesome."
Obviously, this sentence seemed to be admiring Higashino Cang's will, but this ice and snow elf did not show any emotion in his expression or tone.
So, Higashino Cang, who had no idea how to answer the conversation, simply changed the topic and asked, "What's your name?"
"Name, no."
The ice and snow elf thought for a moment, and his azure blue eyes turned slightly, and after falling on the frozen samurai, he replied expressionlessly. "But some people seem to call me Snow Girl, and some people call me Snow Girl or something."
Snow Girl? Snow Girl?
really!
When Higashino Cang heard this, even though he had already guessed, he felt a little thankful, and could not help but feel deeply worried and a sense of crisis about this era.
This is one of the most well-known ghosts in Japan.
‘In other words, this era is probably an era of hundreds of ghosts walking at night?’
As soon as he thought of this, Dongye Cang's eyes couldn't help but fall on the Tai Knife, which had a pure white blade unbuttoned as the white cloth was unbuttoned, and it was secretly speculated.
‘This knife seems to have the special ability to subdue ghosts and borrow power.’
At that moment, Dongye Cang originally thought he was dead, but he didn't expect that the blade penetrated his chest. Not only did he not feel any pain, he inexplicably felt a cold current that was inexplicable through the blade and rushed into his body.
The cold current was a little cold, but wherever it passed, it restored Dongye Cang's flesh and blood that had already turned into ice. Even when facing the siege of more than a hundred extremely fierce men, the cold current could still be attached to the sword blade and swung it into an extremely cold that could freeze everything.
Of course, just one moment, Higashino Cang felt that he was hollowed out and his body, which was under tremendous pressure, could no longer hold on.
but……
A few questions suddenly arose in Higashino Cang's mind.
How did this sword trigger the ability to subdue Xue Ji?
Or what conditions need to be met?
Also, should Xue Ji surrender to herself, or just to the Taidao in her hand, and obey the person who holds this Taidao tightly?
Especially the last point, it is particularly important for Higashino Cang, which almost concerns the protection of Higashino Cang's survival in this era of demons.
Immediately, Dongye Cang turned his head and looked at Xue Ji, and asked, "Xue Ji, why do you call me the master?"
"Master, it's the master." Xue Ji replied calmly.
"Is it because I stabbed you with this?"
Higashino Cang weighed the Taidao in his hand and asked tentatively.
Xue Ji's eyes slowly fell on Taidao, and then Xue Ji, who was only as tall as Higashinocang's shoulder, continued to stare at Higashinocang calmly and spoke.
"I, voluntarily surrender to my master."
What Xue Ji said belongs to the more shameful category in Higashino Cang's concept.
