149 Getting Dark

Is that Eternal Ice that big a deal?

Judging by my new friend's reaction yes.

Also, that receptionist back there was acting up.

[So, why are you guys reacting so much to...]

"He is a legend! He has always been a genius. He has an ice elemental as his tamed beast. This in itself is insane. Elementals are close to impossible to tame. You can't intimidate or use anything to bait them into following you. The only option is sheer will and tenacity. I heard that he had to climb the highest mountain there is to get it. One that is classified a disaster zone!"

[Oh I see. That kinda sounds cool. About the disaster zone, I'm not sure. I've seen a disaster zone mislabeled previously already. Some might not be that horrible once you are used to it. But why would anyone get an ice cube as a pet?! How are you supposed to cuddle with it at night?!]

"Cuddle? You cuddle with your tamed beasts?! Then again you have cute ones."
