Ice Queen in Another World V1 [Completed]

[6] Last Call

A frozen land stretched as far as the horizon itself. No matter where she looked, there was only ice to encapsulate her sight. Icy trees littered the ground, stretching high in lusters as they blocked the innards of the place.

And finally, at what seemed to be the dead center of such a massive island, was a single pillar piecing endlessly into the azure sky. A crystal tower of frozen radiance, as if a testimony to the wonders of ice itself. Glittering with the light of the sun, yet, at the same time, seeming to overshadow it.

However, even as strange as this land was, Claire Hill could do naught but perk her nerves towards the situation.

She looked back.

Just one step behind her figure; a sandy beach and a wide ocean.

"Behind, an endless sea. In front, a frozen realm."

The choice was clear and she turned her direction back forwards.

Stretching out her right hand, she called, "<Glaze>."

As if a fairy sprinkling magic dust, a shape settled into her hand.

An azure dagger.

"Well then," She recollected herself, grasping that weapon tightly in her hand.

If there was one thing she liked, it was being prepared. She had no idea whether there would be beasts, or men, but the previous case of facing a snake that spat lasers reminded her not to lower her guard. Crimson eyes narrowed as she placidly walked forwards.

———

"..."

Claire realized she had made a fatal mistake as soon as she stepped into the forest.

Several crimson eyes immediately turned her direction, sparkling in curiosity. Bluish little creatures with devilish tails. Their teeth snaring with fangs but not advancing in the least. Like monkeys, they retained their mild distance above the jaded trees, looking down at her figure.

Whoever said her foe would be a single opponent?

"<Fairy Eyes>," She silently muttered.

Those same curious eyes suddenly turned into a beautiful radiance of anger as the beasts bared their fangs.

'One would think I murdered them in their previous lives with those eyes,' Claire shook her head.

A loud shriek filled the air. Tearing and rupturing into her ears.

'9.'

Those imps jumped down.

'Alright, so beasts do not much like their statuses being read.' Claire convinced herself that was the reason. It was either that, or they could feel her questioning their strength.

Her hand twirled, the dagger spun as she arched her back for a start.

'If there's anything I know, it's that a big ol crystal tower of ice would definitely be the place I'm meant to reach.'

She realized she would have to cut through them.

Her feet stepped forwards.
