Chapter 548: Above The Wailing Abyss. Hades’s Worry!
Translator: Simple MTL Editor: Simple MTL
The figure of the Magic Beast Wolf King was hidden in the snowstorm!
The snowstorm became bigger and bigger. The snowstorm was as big as goose feathers, and the sky and earth became a white flower.
The Magic Beast Wolf King directly merged into this world of ice and snow. It smelled the scent of its prey in the air and kept moving forward.
“Hu...”
On the top of the Wailing Abyss.
Hades opened his eyes and looked at the flying snow in the sky. He looked at the black sky and let out a heavy sigh.
Fifteen days had passed. For half a month, Hades had been standing guard on the top of the Wailing Abyss, guarding the ice bridge at every step.
Looking at the bottom of the abyss, Hades could not help but cry out.
Fifteen days ago, if he remembered correctly, his father, Joelson, had climbed down from that place.
He did not know if the climb was going well?
Would he be in danger...
All kinds of questions, like vines of grapes, lingered in Hades’s mind, making it impossible for him to fall asleep no matter what. The temperature was close to the extreme freezing point, and Hades had been enduring this kind of weather for fifteen days.
Hades could have fallen into hibernation directly. Hibernation could have avoided the terrible natural disasters in nature. As long as he fell into hibernation, even if the temperature here dropped to absolute zero, Hades wouldn’t be afraid at all.
This was because Hades’s hibernation could effectively save energy and avoid the cold winter by sleeping.
However, Hades didn’t want to fall into a deep sleep. He just didn’t want to sleep directly. He just didn’t want to close his eyes.
Crack!
A clap of thunder sounded in the sky and temporarily illuminated the dark sky!
Hades had been feeling anxious recently. He didn’t know whether it was because of the bad weather or because he was worried about the risk-taking Joelson at the bottom of the valley.
His father, Joelson, was suffering. How could he have the nerve to fall into hibernation to avoid this terrible weather?
The environment at the bottom of the valley must be even worse. His father, Joelson, didn’t hibernate to avoid this terrible snowstorm!
Hades couldn’t fall asleep because of the guilt he felt when he used hibernation to enjoy himself.
“Hey... big guy!”
An old man’s voice suddenly came from the snowstorm.
Hades raised his head in surprise and looked around, trying to find the source of the voice. He wanted to confirm what kind of person was calling him.
Hades even thought that the human voice was his father when he was fighting against the snowstorm. But soon, Hades woke up and told him that it was not his father’s voice, his father, Joelson, was not so old.
“Big guy, I’m here!”
Suddenly, the old voice sounded at his feet again. Hades lowered his head and looked at the old man.
It was the old man who lived on the top of the mountain.
“Big guy, do you want to go to my hut? There is a place to shelter from the wind and a barrier to resist the cold. The weather here is too cold. Really, I have lived here for so many years, but I have never encountered such cold weather. Can you resist it?”
The old man held the oil lamp in his hand. The orange flame of the kerosene lamp in his hand lit up the dark snow land. The kerosene lamp in the old man’s hand was also swaying in the strong wind.
“No, thank you, kind old man.”
Hades nodded and rejected the old man’s kindness.
“I want to wait for my father, Joelson, here. I want to see him as soon as he comes up. If he’s injured, I’ll be the first to receive him.”
Hades said slowly, his tone full of sincerity.
“Oh... what a loyal big guy...”
The old man said with emotion.
“You really don’t want to come to my hut to get warm? Your father will go down for at least ten days. Even if he finds the bright gem immediately after going down, it will take a long time to climb up. I mean, you can wait here for ten days. Your father won’t come back so soon.”
The old man lamented Hades’s loyalty in his heart, but he still sighed and sent Hades a final invitation.
“No, I’m afraid he’ll come back early.”
Hades shook his head and said.
“Alright... Alright... loyal big guy...”
The old man saw that his invitation had been rejected many times, and he understood Hades’s firm attitude of waiting for his father. He could only shake his head helplessly.
After all, this was Hades’s own choice. The old man had good intentions in his heart, so that Hades would not suffer so much. However, under Hades’s insistence, the old man could not persist any longer. He only shook his head, he sighed and set off on the road back.
“My father, I hope that the Goddess of Fate will bestow her favor and bless all your actions to be smooth. I hope that you can return safely!”
Hades’s deep eyes looked at the distant sky, the dark sky, and muttered. He offered his own blessing to his father, who did not know the situation.
“Phew...”
Joelson turned around and saw that none of the wolves had followed him. He let out a heavy breath.
“Were we saved?”
Elena asked curiously.
“That’s right. It looks like we’re saved!”
At this moment, there was really not a single drop of magic energy left in Joelson’s body. The only spiritual energy left was very weak, and he could not directly scan a large area when he was healthy in the past, as for whether there were any magic wolves chasing after him, Johnson was not very clear about it.
“Phew... that was a close call...”
Elena let out a sigh of relief. From the beginning, Elena’s heart had been hanging high like a giant knife on a guillotine. Now, she finally let out a sigh of relief.
“By the way... I’m sorry...”
Elena said as she drove the sleigh with her head lowered. From Johnson’s angle, he couldn’t see Elena’s expression.
“Hmm? Why did you suddenly apologize?”
He was confused.
“It’s... It’s because I forced myself to kiss you just now...”
Elena’s voice became softer and softer until the buzzing sound of a mosquito was almost inaudible.
“What did you say? Your voice is too soft, I can’t hear you!”
Although he could hear Elena’s words clearly, he still asked with a smirk.
“I said, I’m sorry for kissing you without your permission just now!”
