Chapter 307: Law of Death
"From today onward, you must stay in this place for a full hour every day until your body can adapt to the cold here."
Upon hearing Hellman-Rose’s words, although Vivian's body was still trembling, she nodded resolutely.
After all, she was already accustod—or perhaps numb—to this type of extre environnt training.
At first, before awakening the bloodline of the 【Cochin Viper】, Vivian, who possessed the B-rank talent 【Rapid Freezing】,
could only endure two to three hours in the Extre Cold Secret Realm.
Now, even staying for several months wouldn't be a problem for her.
So, when she heard any training instruction from Hellman-Rose again, Vivian would follow it without fail—as long as it could make her stronger, as long as it could keep her from falling too far behind Janna-Roland, she was willing to try any ans to beco stronger!
Even if there was so risk to her life, Vivian had no fear—
"That location is where the aura of death is strongest in the Extre Cold Secret Realm. I believe it will suit your needs."
Hearing this, Janna-Roland’s gaze also turned toward the place Hellman-Rose pointed to—a death zone where even the snow and ice were pitch black.
"Mr. Hellman, in my current condition, is there any danger if I step into that place?"
"There isn’t. The temperature there is similar to here. Apart from being tainted by the power of the 【Law of Death】, it holds no other peculiarities———and that level of death aura won’t affect you."
With Hellman-Rose’s assurance, Janna-Roland eased her mind a bit.
"By my will, I command you—summon, Fla Guardian."
"By my will, I command you—summon, Celestial Sparrow."
As two flashes of light appeared, the shivering Celestial Sparrow and a noticeably smaller Fla Guardian materialized beside Janna-Roland.
"Ma——Master, where are we?"
The Celestial Sparrow, which hadn’t been summoned for several days, was rather expectant when it received the summoning command. But upon sensing the freezing environnt that could turn it into an ice sculpture, its first reaction was to huddle close to Janna-Roland and tightly clutch its tiny wings.
"We are currently at the boundary of the 【Realm of the Dead】. In a mont, I will step into the area with the densest death aura. If anything abnormal happens to , imdiately cast 【Sacred Fla】 on ."
"Und—understood."
Although it still didn’t know what Janna-Roland intended to do, the Celestial Sparrow, whose consciousness was nearly frozen by the extre cold, had no ntal energy to think further.
"Flaard, co closer to us."
The Fla Guardian, also trembling in the cold, floated to Janna-Roland’s side upon her command, doing its best to warm both human and bird with its flas.
"Looks like Flaard won’t last much longer either."
Feeling the rapidly dwindling mana in the Fla Guardian, Janna-Roland didn’t hesitate any further. While quickly using its warmth to thaw herself, she also began slowly approaching the ink-black region.
"Janna, what are you going to do?"
Since Janna-Roland and Hellman-Rose had been communicating via voice transmission the entire ti, Vivian had no idea what Janna-Roland was doing in the canyon with her.
So, while still resisting the surrounding cold at her original spot, Vivian couldn’t help but transmit her voice when she sensed Janna-Roland approaching that clearly ominous area.
"I’m going to comprehend the power of a 【Law】."
"Here?"
Vivian’s eyes, filled with white, showed clear confusion upon hearing Janna-Roland’s response.
In this vast canyon, aside from the omnipresent ice and snow, and the thick death aura, Vivian saw no sign of any Law related to the “Domain of Nature.”
Could it really be the power of Death?
The force of extre cold continually assaulted Vivian’s body, gradually rusting her thoughts like old gears—
They slowly froze over, as though sealed by the surrounding frost.
"Vivian, do not lose focus."
Just as Vivian felt her consciousness was about to be frozen, Hellman-Rose’s voice echoed in her mind at the perfect mont.
"Father—"
With that reminder, Vivian stopped getting distracted and focused entirely on resisting the extre cold, doing her best to keep a clear state of mind.
anwhile, as Janna-Roland formally stepped into the zone shrouded in death aura, a chill like a tremor from the soul blanked her mind for a mont.
"Master!"
Buzz—just as Janna-Roland’s body began trembling violently, the Celestial Sparrow on her shoulder instantly transford from its “parrot form” into a larger shape and spewed a platinum fla, surrounding Janna-Roland and quickly dispelling the death aura.
"Stop, Aph——"
Under the expulsion of the 【Sacred Fla】, Janna-Roland could clearly feel the surrounding death aura diminishing, while the extre cold, once suppressed, started growing stronger again.
In no ti, the ink-black frost turned white once more, and even the ambient temperature began to rise.
"So death and cold are opposed to each other after all——"
Watching the two forces collide, Janna-Roland couldn't help but frown.
Janna-Roland had always believed that the frost power of the Extre Cold Secret Realm and the death power of the 【Realm of the Dead】 were in a balanced, equal relationship.
Because, as Hellman-Rose once said: at the intersection of death and frost, besides the utmost cold, there was also a power that withered life.
Thus, Janna-Roland had understood that when these two forces reached so equilibrium, a power of withering would erge—but...
Watching the still-clashing forces before her, Janna-Roland couldn’t help but grow frustrated.
"Master, I can't hold on much longer——"
While Janna-Roland remained troubled by the balance point of the two forces, the Celestial Sparrow beside her was already on the verge of collapse.
"Sorry, both of you return first."
Not just the Celestial Sparrow—the Fla Guardian, which served as a heater, now also appeared half-dead.
Seeing this, Janna-Roland didn’t keep them any longer. With a wave of her hand, she sent them both back to the Spirit Realm.
"As expected, in such extre conditions, without top-tier witchcraft tools like the 【Sun dallion】, even elental creatures can't last long—"
