[FF7] Those things after marriage

Although the Ice and Snow Village is located in the extreme north of the planet and is covered by ice and snow all year round, it is not a barren land.Instead, it's arguably the most... active place in the north of the planet.

Legend has it that this place used to be the place where the ancient species lived. Because of the ice and snow, it was once inaccessible, so there are still traces of the ancient species living here.It is said that the buildings and relics originated from ancient times have continuously attracted people to dig and explore here. Over time, this place has become a large-scale village.Merchants brought the necessities of life from the southern towns, and then took away the special products on the northern ice sheet. Adventurers, scholars, and explorers stopped here for supplies, and then set foot on the road again.

People's exploration of the ancient species now known as Setla has actually been going on since a long time ago.But at that time, people didn't have a specific name for them, and they didn't know much about their deeds. They could only learn a few words from the buildings and traces they left behind.But there are more legends about the treasures they left behind.

Therefore, the tranquility of the northern ice field, which is said to be their last habitat for thousands of years, was broken by people.And it is these people who support the only village on the northern ice sheet.

Some people stayed here, some people left and came again, and finally the Ice and Snow Village became the largest and only human village on the entire northern ice sheet.Merchants brought here the necessities of life brought from the southern hemisphere, and then took away the specialties here, and so on.

So many times, so many times, finally people from all over the planet turned the Ice and Snow Village into what it is today.

The village ahead that stands on the silent ice field but is full of human voices is the Ice and Snow Village.

But these have nothing to do with Esther for the time being... No, it should be said that she is 'out of mind' at the moment.After experiencing a large-angle jump in the snow without safety measures, Esther was in a state of depression for a long time... Although she knew that there would be no accident with Sephiroth, her physical reaction was uncontrollable.

The heart is still pounding and pounding, and the head is also throbbing like something is jumping again... It's terrible.

"Eh? Still uncomfortable?"

Zacks leaned in front of Esther who was being hugged by Sephiroth with a pale face, and waved in front of her.

"Hey~ Are you okay?"

"...I think I see the consciousness of the planet..."

At that moment, it seemed that consciousness had really left the body.

"It's too exaggerated! It's really... You can get used to it after a few more times."

"..."

If you come a few more times, you will die, okay?

Although she really wanted to hit that hedgehog's head hard, but she really couldn't muster any strength now.

Damn it, she wants to keep accounts!

Looking at Zack, who was smiling brightly, Esther made a serious note of him in her heart.

Although there are a lot of migrants in the Ice and Snow Village, but now is the time of the year when there are the fewest people. Few people will come to the Ice and Snow Village in winter.This season, which is windy and snowy almost every day, is not suitable for outdoor activities.Whether it is scientific research or adventure.

After entering the village, they randomly found a hotel to live in. Esther could hardly get up when she touched the bed. After three days of living in the wilderness, the warm room and soft bed were simply It is heaven.

Although it is difficult to survive in the wild, it is only when you return to human buildings that you will have the 'feeling of being alive'.

Seeing Esther rubbing against the pillow with a happy face, the silver-haired man smiled slightly, turned and walked out of the room.

He had to contact Shinra's people stationed in Ice and Snow Village, and help her get a steaming meal by the way.Although Esther hasn't complained a word in the past few days, she must still want to eat delicious hot food.

Zacks in the other room also did the same moves as Esther, although his physique is many times stronger than Esther's, and he doesn't feel how hard life like that is...but it can make him feel comfortable If so, who wouldn't like it?The black-haired boy lay on the bed and stretched out, letting his body sink into the soft mattress, and he didn't want to get up for a while.Then lying down, Zack fell asleep too.

Although the talent is very good, he is still a bit young as a special soldier.

And on the other side-

Sephiroth, who has been to the Ice and Snow Village several times, quickly found the branch where Shinra was stationed here. Although it was only a small branch, it still had basic functions.It's just that Sephiroth missed this time.

"...is the person in charge here?"

"No, I'm very sorry. The person in charge has made an appointment to drink with someone..." The new receptionist looked flustered and stammered an apology to the world-renowned hero in front of him. If you forgive me, you will have to apologize, "He is always here, really, today is his best friend..."

The continuous days of blizzard have seriously affected the communication signal. Sephiroth's communicator has no signal, and the communicator here is also temporarily unavailable. He wanted to ask the person in charge if there is any solution, but in the end he got such a Answer.

Although he didn't mean to blame him, this situation made him somewhat depressed.

But he didn't have the habit of blaming others, nor was he interested in embarrassing the newcomers, so he left the name of the hotel where they were temporarily staying.It's really a bad situation to be unable to contact the Shinra head office, but it's much better than before. At least they have returned to human society, and they don't have to sleep in the open air or spend the night in cold caves.

But thinking of Shinra's consistent style, it makes people unhappy.

With communication cut off for such a long time, it could easily be treated as a defection.He's okay, but Esther and Zacks are in some trouble, and it's probably inevitable that they will be investigated by the people from Tasker when they go back.

Especially the pilot and the Turks who were traveling with them are dead.

It is a very unfavorable situation.

As Shinra's signature, Sephiroth has a much deeper understanding of this company than they do.

Although there was something in his heart, Sephiroth was calm as if nothing had happened.

After waking up Esther and having a hot meal with her, I went to the next door to check on Zack's situation - the black-haired boy was much stronger than Esther, after sleeping and eating He has basically regained his energy, and now he is looking out of the window with great interest, and shows the look of eager to go out.

Sure enough, as soon as he saw Sephiroth, he made a request to go out.As a 'southern', it was his first time to visit the northern ice field, and he didn't care about it when he was in the wild, but now that he returned to the ice and snow village, he just wanted to go out and play.The environment that is completely different from your own environment always makes people want to explore while feeling unfamiliar.

Sephiroth didn't mind satisfying the junior's wishes occasionally, and readily agreed to his request.After watching the boy cheer and run away, he will also go to his and Esther's room, lie down beside Esther and close his eyes.After a few days of tossing like this, he was also a little tired.

Just when the two of them fell asleep peacefully, Zacks, who had recovered, happily stepped on the snow-covered road.

White roofs, white branches, and white streets.

In this village with white as the main tone, the walls and the faint light from the windows are the only embellishments in this snow-white village.

There was lively chatter and laughter in the tavern, and it seemed that the aroma of ale could still be vaguely smelled.

The black-haired boy who likes to be lively by nature opened the door and walked into the tavern on the side. Different from the pure white outside, the light of the tavern is warm light yellow.The men sat at the table toasting and laughing, and the maids in the tavern would interject a few words from time to time, and would occasionally retaliate without blushing when they were teased.

...But the scale of the topic still made Zacks, an innocent boy, quite embarrassed.

Sometimes hearing too well is also a tragedy.

"Hey, it's a new face... The young man is not bad, he can walk to the Ice and Snow Village safely in this season." The tall and strong man, whose face was flushed from drinking, walked up to Zacks, and stretched out his arms familiarly. He touched his shoulder, and while speaking, he handed the large wine glass in the other hand to Zacks, "Come, come, for your safety, have a drink!"

"I-I'm not very good at this..."

Although lively but with good living habits, the young man hastily waved his hand and refused.Before coming to Shinra, he was still a child and didn't drink much. After coming to Shinra, he was busy training and had no chance to drink, so he really hasn't had a good drink until now.

"What are you good at and what you are not good at, you will be good at it after you drink it... In this winter, how can you keep warm if you don't drink some wine." The unknown red-faced man said as he moved the wine glass to Zacks. It was so close that it almost touched his nose.

"..." The black-haired boy was silent for a moment, and then resolutely took the big wine glass that was longer than his palm, "I'm sorry!"

Seeing the boy gulp and drink, the man patted him on the back in satisfaction and laughed boldly.

"This is what a man looks like!"

"Cough cough cough cough."

Being slapped so hard by the man, Zack almost choked to death.His fair face also turned red - but I don't know if it's from the wine or the cough.

"Stop bullying other people's children, Nick."

Seeing this, someone in the tavern started booing.

"Don't go too far, it's rare to see such a handsome boy here, if you scare him away, the girls in the village won't let you go." The proprietress of the tavern also cursed with a smile.

The red-faced man named Nick had a look of grievance.

"I'm kind. How can you do it without drinking in such a cold day? You're much warmer now, little brother... little brother?"

Nick's palm slapped the air, and the black-haired boy beside him sat down on the ground at some point, his fair cheeks were flushed, and his eyes were a little hazy.

"...This is really too much."

The big man scratched his head with a troubled expression on his face.
