And in this pure white world, a middle-aged man who thought he was wearing a silver-white armor was sitting quietly on an abandoned wooden board.
In front of the middle-aged man, a wooden cross was standing in the snow and ice.
On the cross, there seemed to be scrawled words carved crookedly with a knife.
But it was covered by the white snow covering the cross and the ice from fishing~.
The middle-aged man quietly looked at the crude cross in front of him.
The slightly violent wind blew the black cloak behind him.
Even the vague sadness in his eyes was covered up.
He seemed to be completely integrated with the surrounding blizzard.
He couldn't even feel the temperature emanating from him.
Tap... Tap... Tap...
There was a sound of snow being trampled on behind him.
It seemed that the figure felt a little scared, so that every step he took was so heavy.
Finally, the figure stopped behind the middle-aged man.
Taking a deep breath, he shouted softly to the middle-aged man in front of him with his back turned to him.
"Master Yin...the summoning order has been sent from the headquarters..."
His voice trembled a little, as if he was facing some kind of mortal danger.
Hearing the shout, the bewildered eyes of the middle-aged man gradually regained a trace of spirit.
He exhaled lightly, and there was a hint of impatience in his tone:
"Really, can't you let me sweep the grave properly?"
Hearing these words, the visitor seemed even more frightened.
His body couldn't help but soften a little, but he thought of his mission.
He still bravely continued to speak: "Because this time... is an order to summon all members of the Nine Ghosts Sect..."
"So... Bing's demon slayer guide... Lord Yin..."
The person's body trembled uncontrollably, and he suddenly bent down.
Put your own attitude to the lowest, humble opening:
"Please follow the order... go back!"
Yin turned his back to the visitor, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
"Why are you so scared? I won't eat you!" The low voice came slowly.
It was passed to the ears of those who came, just like the whispers of a real devil.
It's chilling!
Silver put his hands on his knees and slowly stood up from the discarded board.
A dim light cast from the thick clouds illuminated his face.
There is a scar on the forehead that runs through the left eye.
There are cross-like earrings on both ears.
That handsome face covered with embarrassing stubble had an unusually lazy look on it.
Gate of Hades · Gate of Nine Ghosts · Silver of Absolute Zero!
Turning around slowly, Yin looked at the person behind him.
"Ah... ah..." Watching the upward smile at the corner of Silver's mouth.
The visitor couldn't help but took two steps back.
Facing the other party's fear, Yin's smile remained the same.
There was an inexplicable brilliance in his eyes, as if he was recalling something.
Open your mouth slowly:
"The only thing I devour is the soul of the devil!"
It seemed that he had thought of something again, and that smile became even brighter.
"Perhaps... maybe there will be fairies too!"
He ignored the frightened and trembling figure.
Yin took a step and left towards the distance.
It seems that there is no nostalgia for the cross behind him.
It seems that the sadness and pain are left in this ice and snow.
left with it...
Maybe there is a real self!

Time flies.
Nearly three days have passed since the last Atlas Flame demise.
In the past few days, Luo Xingchen rescued Sun Village from freezing.
In order to repay the kindness of Luo Xingchen and the others.
The enthusiastic giants invited Luo Xingchen and others to the party.
And in this gathering, Freya also successfully recognized the giants.
The giants were not offended by it.
After all, it doesn't matter whether Freya wants to leave or stay.
Sun Village will always be her home.
It doesn't matter if it's sad or painful, as long as Freya wants to come back, the giants will always welcome her.
After all, Freya has been a part of this village from beginning to end.
She is the daughter raised by all the giants here!
Neither distance nor time can change this.
On this day, Freya once again raised the most sincere smile.
The happiness woven by the giants seems to embrace this girl who has experienced pain at this moment.
With Freya's joining, the banquet also came to its climax.
In the sea of smiles, Luo Xingchen and the others inevitably laughed until dawn.
However, because of the task to be delivered, Luo Xingchen and the others did not stay too long.
Although, Natsu and Happy still want to play for a few more days.
But under Ersha's gloomy face, such an idea was directly killed in the cradle.
In this way, Luo Xingchen and others embarked on the road back the next day.
—————
Wold Sinken's residence.
Volod, who had always had absolute confidence in Luo Xingchen and the others, saw the returning crowd.
And after listening to what happened in this mission.
He couldn't help laughing and clapping his hands.
···Ask for flowers····
"Sure enough, entrusting the task to you is a wise decision!"
"You guys are amazing! Nice young people!"
On Volod's old face, the expression of joy was very clear.
"It's a small matter." Natsu waved his hands excitedly.
"However, fortunately, Xingchen and the others came to support at the last moment, otherwise the world might not go so smoothly this time." Gray said beside him.
"Yes, we are also relieved to be able to complete Lord Volod's commission."
Erza said with a smile on her face.
"However, this incident involves the gate of Hades, which really makes people a little concerned." Luo Xingchen in the center said with his hands clasped.
"Hmm... just leave the investigation on this part to the people in the council." Worold said after pondering for a moment.
"I'll contact the members of the Senate in a while, starting from the Sun Village, to see if I can find the location of the Nightmare's Eye."
......0
"Then why don't you go directly to the gate of Hades?" Natsu asked.
"You think too much." Milaj on the side shook his head lightly.
"Think about it, the Devil's Heart and the Six Demon Generals who were also members of the Balam Alliance before, they don't have a so-called fixed location at all, so they can't lock their positions if they follow the vines."
"Maybe you can't find it by following the vines." Luo Xingchen who was on the side said.
Facing everyone's suspicious eyes, he said slowly:
"After all, the Gate of Hades is the most mysterious guild in the Baram Alliance. I'm afraid even their subordinate guilds don't know where they are."
"And the rules of conduct of this guild and its subordinate guilds are extremely low-key. Apart from knowing the name of the guild, we don't have any information."
"It's such an extremely low-key guild that suddenly made these actions with great fanfare, and I always feel a little uneasy." Erza, who heard Luo Xingchen's introduction, couldn't help but frowned.
"In short, there must be no good things for those moths." Milaj responded.
"Hey, hey... sounds like a lot of trouble." Gray looked at Natsu and shrugged.
"I don't understand..." Natsu looked confused.
"..."

pop-pop-
Watching everyone's discussion, Worod interrupted everyone with a smile and clapped his hands.
"Let's not talk about these, but now I seem to be paying you guys, right?"
Volod's words instantly drew cheers from the crowd.
"We've been waiting a long time!"
"Well, after all, the work is done, and this is what it should be!"
In the eyes of everyone's expectations.
Volod turned around and took out from his backpack.
"Ah~ I found it! Take it!"
With that said, Volod turned around, under the eyes of everyone...
Slowly took out a potato? knife.
Chapter 585 Companion is really good, right?
Looking at the potatoes that have sprouted even because they have been stored for too long.
Everyone present couldn't help but fell into silence.
