The custodian fled, he was appearing here and then there to search the last sc.u.m.

For Life…

Finally a hunter was spotted running toward the mountain, it was the last remaining, the custodian gathered a whole fort of frost wind and tipped on him.

The hunters who were hiding behind the mountain heard this sudden noise and asked, "What was it?" it was possible that the strong storm broke a bigger part of the mountain and bury them inside.

"Nothing just a cloud of frost pa.s.sed by," Jen answered, she happened to see the black smoke near the mountain, the other hunters were hiding while she was observing whether custodians were able to complete the task.

In just few days these hunters completely forgot the vanity of being hunters, their bodies were covered under the fresh snow, they were hiding behind the mountain, their situation was pitiful.

The last group of the hunters would be killed in this frozen basin without knowing whom they should fear most, the weather or the supreme legend, it would be a accolade for those who lost their lives at their hands.

Jen planned to not let them know how they died, it was best revenge in her eyes, the same way those were killed without knowing why they were killed, they were killed because they were supreme legends, it was their ability but it turned out their weakness and flaw.

The custodian killed and returned back.

"You finally proved that you are not useless," the other custodian smirked the one who returned just now.

"You better not toss up the weaknesses of others and prove as blemish on all other heroic deeds," the custodian flaunted.

"Let's master decide who is hero in the end," the genius one waved its smoky wings.

The frost storm was still at its peak and the remaining hunters were forced to wait for the weather to turn mild for travel.

"How long we have to stay here? My body is unable to bear this frost anymore," a hunter collapsed on the fresh snow.

"I don't know, if it was not this mountain, we cannot imagine what would have happened to us," a hunter remembered the first horrible wave of the storm.

"Many fellow hunters have not returned back yet, someone has to go and check if they were able to survive or not," the Omega spoke this time.

"I can go and check," a junior omega stood up while his stature was barely fighting against the storm winds.

These hunters were insanely strong, Jen silently observed and thought if it was not frozen basin, she would never been able to tackle them all, the true a.s.sessment of their strength was that they only fear the presence of guardian beast because it could call the Defender that means they only fear defender.

"Be careful and if you find anyone alive, bring him here," the Omega advised.

Though the possibility was low but they cannot neglect the responsibility.

Once the junior omega left for search, Jen was thinking to consume the herb as soon as possible.

A whole pa.s.sed and now the effects were dying down, and with this she was feeling cold, unbearable cold.

She was after all a human, with limits to bear this insane cold.

"We cannot live under the direct snowfall because the storm has affected many of us, we should find a suitable place to wait till the weather turns favorable for journey," she spoke.

Her voice was slightly shaking which was a sign that frail hunter was facing it difficult as the others.

"We also want a safe place but the question is where could it be and how we will reach there," the Omega can feel the apprehension in her voice.

"We have to find it, if not then create it, this mountain can be used as shelter," Jen spoke.

The Omega and the others survey it after her words but there was not some cave which could be used as shelter.

They were sure that this frail hunter was worried because of the present situation.

"We can dig a cave, it would help us against the direct weather and snowfall," they were hunters and possess sharp weapons too, it was not difficult for them to dig some hard frost.

The mountain was old and the frost was not shallow or soft to slide easily which means it could be used as shelter without worry.

The Omega heard and nodded, indeed this was doable task, he ordered those who were in better condition to dig the cave, others started helping to remove the soft snow, everyone got to work and Jen found this chance to chew the herb secretly.

Compared to the condition when they first started this journey, they were not looking in good spirits, yet the task was necessary to protect themselves so they were focused to do it.

Jen also joined and instructed how they should dig and which was better way to use their weapons, if they randomly dig then there will be only mess not a shelter, the mountain was after all not a rock but made of frost, they have to carefully dug in it.

The junior omega returned after some time and told that no one survived, "I am little suspicious, not a single body could be find," he voiced his suspicion in front of the Omega.

"Because of storm, the bodies must have buried under the frost, if we face better weather conditions soon, we will search their bodies," the Omega voiced.

Jen heard this kept pretending as if working with others, if they really went to search bodies, they would definitely get suspicious, the ordered custodians to not leave traces so they must have used means to dispatch the bodies somewhere.

One of the hunter who was killed near the mountain was buried deep in the frost, the hunters can't even imagine what can the next moment bring for them.
