In a way, the Northlands was probably the single most unsuitable location in all of Eich for humans to live in

The Northlands only had two seasons, spring and winter Spring here would be the equivalent of winter in other places, while one-third of the year, the region would be completely sealed under ice and snow The land here was incredibly poor for raising crops, and very few creatures lived here… Yet, this place wasthe daylight Since there were no trees, the winds would directly make everyone tremble with their icy coldness But, while the chilly winds during day were incredibly cold, the night winds were truly cold enough to kill people There wouldn’t even be any need to clean up a corpse if soht, as they would be frozen completely solid… Yet, this place was my homeland

Winter wolves, yetis, vicious snow bears, and so on These deical beasts would easily become apex predators in any other area’s forest, yet they were incredibly common beasts in the Northlands It was quite coer in the on roars as that would typically otten too close to human settlements… No newbie adventurers would be able to survive in such a land

Avalanches, hailstorht, severe cold, tornados, snowstorms, and so on Apart frootten used to every type of natural disaster there was As tied to find the advantages of this land through all the bitter experiences

The poor land and chilly weather reedy nobles were unable to handle the severe lifestyle here Compared to pampered inland nobles ere able to enjoy their lives, the doht ancestors of old Not only were they the rulers of their territories, they were truly the guardians of their citizens

The lack of resources and dangerous environ with each other against the eleical beaststo defend themselves as well This land produced plenty of warriors and outstanding eous people illing to sacrifice themselves for the sake of the many The Northlanders were viewed by the rest of human society as barbarians, but they were also a warrior people even though they lacked a powerful bloodline

In the Northlands, good morals and the importance of a promise were no empty concepts The Northlanders were naturally like this—in the snowy Northlands, being isolated or exiled would equal death In front of the cruel test of nature, liars and cowards would never be able to ood reputation were absolute requirements for survival here True Northlands heroes would prove the pillars of support in their coarts would always die filled with regrets

“…The first snow of the year has truly arrived so early”

Even though I was still on the slowly flying airshi+p, the chill of the Northlands still made me rather uncomfortable as I was still weak I rubbed my hands as I exhaled visible breaths, yet that faize hness, this is already the fourth snowfall of the year”

The young Northlands government official’s words revealed some new information that surprised me I was quite familiar with the Northlands, after all The first snoould represent the arrival of winter Issuing everyone food for the winter and organizing winter hunting squadrons would all need to be coe snowfall would greatly impede all other work There was no reason for me to misremember the typical time for winter to arrive here Normally, the first snoouldn’t even arrive for another teeks

The silly cat juovern her It ell known on the airshi+p that Harloys had beento attack me, Harloys had becoye’s Pet Cat of Death”, “Shadow of Misfortune”, and had other siht now, the most popular rumor was that the black cat was actually a Divine Sin/Undead Lord/God level undead that was only pretending to be a cat, and that she needed to devour several hundred souls per day or so

“Great snow mountain”

Harloys spoke only a few simple words, but I instantly realized what she meant after a overnment official, and learned sos as I expected Ever since five or six years ago, the Northlands’ winters had arrived earlier each year, and left later each year The winters had also become colder

“The Ice Elereat snowits transforh this was in the Northlands’ mountains where nobody lived, since it was still dimensionally connected to the Northlands, the ice eleh would make the already chilly Northlands even colder every year

From a certain standpoint, this made the Northlands even more inhospitable, but since ht not actually be a bad thing

The dereatest weapons were their powerful physical bodies and plentifulhow ice naturally countered the fire eleh rates in any freezing environht with their physical bodies and y consuy consu more But, you should first be able to find prey if you wanted to hunt in the Northlands, and even if you ate every single wild beast in the h for a snack to demons who had tree of this…”

I also had so this situation Perhaps the Great Snow Mountain Magical Realm’s ice element creatures could be used as part of the entire Northlands’ defense line Perhaps we could also make use of this natural defense line of coldness However, realizing these ideas would take

We fully entered the Northlands as I pondered these matters Three mothershi+ps in the new Borealis squadron separated here The new Borealis continued Northwards, going to Diffindor, the unofficial capital of the Mist Alliance The Mizar headed for Sleuweir’s industrial district for supplies and repairs, while the Alkaid went to the Xiluo E the personnel
