He stretched his stiffaround the roo in the dark will hurt your eyes”

He turned on the ic lamp and blinked The video as open above the table, but the Frost Queen wasn’t there[1]

‘Where’s Frost? Did she go to the bathroom?’

He knocked on the door, but there was no response As he stepped inside, he heard so inside the bathtub

“What are you doing there?” he asked, squeezing toothpaste onto his toothbrush He held it between his teeth as he used the mirror to fix his bedhead

And when he peeked inside the tub, he found the Frost Queen sitting inside Her body was crouched like a pillbug

“Huh?”

Of course, it wasn’t enough to hide frorow?” he asked

“N-no I aot bigger” He picked up the Frost Queen froo! I am the Queen of Niflheiressions…”

“No, you don’t You’re ht now”

When he set her down, he becarew?’

He didn’t know that it was possible for Spirits to grow physically Had he fed her too much cake recently? He considered this and shook his head

‘Even if that’s true, she couldn’t have grown like this overnight’

Still, Seo Jun-Ho had been asleep for 25 years before Just to be sure, he checked the date—exactly one day had passed since he closed his eyes last night

“You evolved, didn’t you?” he asked, squinting He suddenly remembered what shi+m Deok-Gu had told hih, arch’

Spirits had five different ranks Of course, those that were of a higher rank were stronger than Spirits of lower ranks

‘Last ti off about how she’s so powerful—that she’s an Arch spirit, but…’

As expected, she had been a Lesser spirit Was she acting like this because she was erinned and set her down on the ground He patted her head

“Keep growing like this, okay?”

“” The Frost Queen looked up at him with a sulky expression on her face

She was as tall as his calves now, so she would probably reach his hips the next time she evolved

“Grade 2 Arch…”

“What?”

“I arade 2 Arch Spirit I am the first Spirit to have reached this level”

At that, she scuttled from the bathroom, as if afraid that he’d askhis teeth

“So all that’s left is Coh all five ranks”

They were like hed silently

The day after their little , the attendant of Gilleon’s city lord cae The attendant asked Seo Jun-Ho to co cereed into neat clothes “Do you wanna co?” he asked Frost

She was still editing the video She had been very quick when she edited the previous video, but this one was taking her quite so the final touches I do not wish to interrupt my concentration, so I will stay here”

“Sure”

Leaving her behind, Seo Jun-Ho left the inn and got on the carriage They started toward the city lord’s estate The property was very elegant; the white mansion was three stories tall and there was a fountain in the courtyard

‘So this is a nobleman’s house’

He wasn’t nervous He had lived in ant estates on Earth He followed the attendant through the halls, passing by lines of statues and paintings They stopped in front of a door on the 2nd floor

“Milord, I’ve come with Player Seo Jun-Ho”

- Ah, come in

The attendant opened the door for Seo Jun-Ho and remained outside

Inside, Commander Phivir was in the ed man The latter’s clothes wereof a noble, but it wasn’t over-the-top

“I am Baron Vashti, the city lord of Gilleon,” he said
