Inside the Black Snow Fortress, Zeka and Violette somehow managed to reach the tallest castle in the area—though they had no idea how.
Zeka was now so cold he was on tahe verge of freezing solid. At first, he believed he could endure the terrifying cold.
However, because he had to use his own blood to activate the key, he had lost quite a bit of it.
Losing blood while also enduring this extreme chill—if he weren't a 'Fate Holder' with multiple buffs on his body, he would've died long ago.
Why didn't he use Violette's blood instead?
Of course, it was because she was the goddess in his heart. How could he bear to make her bleed?
When they reached the castle gates and saw that the two knights guarding the entrance had frozen to death, both Violette and Zeka felt a wave of fear.
But in order to complete the mission and escape this cursed place—and because the goddess of his heart was here—he couldn't let himself show fear.
