Well... That was unexpected.

"...And that's about it." Isaac finished speaking.

He just explained the things that happened to Moccus. Including but limited to how the Cryo Hypostasis, no wait, Daleth appeared.

"I see..." Moccus said with a low voice. He then looked at the floating cubical thing called Daleth and continued speaking. "Nice to meet thee. Mine name is Moccus, the King of the Snow Boars."

"~" Daleth replied. Though, there was no sound.

"???" Moccus was extremely confused as to what had just happened. "Err... Could thou repeat what thee had just said?"

" ~ ~ " Again, no sounds.

"Haha..." At this point, Moccus heard a suppressed laughter coming from Isaac. He then looked at the latter and waited for an explanation.

Sensing Moccus' gaze, Isaac had enough fun listening to their little conversation and explained. "Well, you see, Daleth seems to only be able to communicate with me so..."

"So that's how it is... Ha..." Moccus sighed.

He then turned his attention to Isaac and changed the matter. "I believe we should return to camp. The others might have already woken up."

Hearing this, Isaac gave a small nod of agreement. "Alright. But first, I'm just gonna do something..."

After saying this, Isaac went to the edge of the arena, and soon, Daleth too came.

"Let's see now..." Isaac mumbled under his breath. He was gonna try to move Daleth out of the arena it was in.

Concentrating his attention, Isaac began his operation. He focused on Daleth and found that it is composed of high elemental energy consisting of the Cryo Element.

Daleth's current form, a 4x4 cubicle with its core at the center, is very versatile. Not only could it change its form for offense and defense, but it also has some ability to control cryo to a short extent. 'Amazing structure...'

In one instance, Isaac even managed to see three other forms of Daleth. One is a highly offensive form that takes on the form of a spinning spike wheel that chases its enemy.

The other is a form where it would go up and all of its cubes to chase its enemies like some kind of homing missile. But the side effect is that it will temporarily lose its cubes, its only defense.

And lastly, its defensive form. Once Daleth reaches a point where it is extremely injured, it would retreat and form an ice cocoon around itself to heal. But unfortunately, during the process, Daleth will subconsciously summon a few frostfruits that if destroyed, will interrupt its healing.

Isaac continued inspecting Daleth for a while until he finally found the solution. "That's it!"

"I finally found the solution to your problem!" Isaac said as he felt like he solved a hard puzzle.

"And what... Is it?" Daleth replied in a way that only Isaac could understand.

Hearing this, Isaac nodded with a smile and explained the situation. "You see, because you are connected to the Ley Lines in this arena, you are bound to it. It is also because when you took on this form, it was under the Ley Lines' guidance."

"So my solution is... You should change your form!" Isaac added.

He noticed it when he was inspecting Daleth a few minutes ago. It is because of the Ley Lines and the gathering of Elemental Energy that caused Daleth's birth.

But it was a double-sided sword. On one hand, Daleth gave up its previous elemental form to assume its current form which has huge advantages. On the other hand, it is now bound to the place where it assumed form: The clogged Ley Lines.

So, if Isaac were to convince Daleth to change forms, perhaps it could trick the Ley Lines that Daleth is no longer a hypostasis, releasing the latter.

Daleth thought for a moment before answering. "That seems... Plausible."

"I shall give it a try..." Daleth added.

Isaac nodded and he assisted Daleth in its transformation using his elemental control to support it.

Daleth then levitate's to the sky in a circular motion before stopping mid-air. There, its 8 cubes surrounding it started spinning around its core like a moon orbiting around the earth.

Its cubes started spinning rapidly until a bright blue flash appeared. Moccus and Isaac instinctively closed their eyes as it was just too bright.

'I wonder what Daleth is gonna change to...' Isaac pondered.

After a few minutes of dazzling lights, the light-bluish light slowly faded away until finally, a human figure appeared in the sky.

Seeing the human figure, Isaac's eyes slightly contracted from disbelief. 'No way... Daleth actually...'

"Well, this is unexpected." Moccus said in amusement beside Isaac.

'Chose to be female...' Isaac added.

In the sky, the human figure slowly drifted down until its foot reached the ground. What was now there is a tall female with long light purple hair. Her skin was white as snow while her sharp eyes were the same as Isaac's, crystal-like ice-blue eyes with a mole on the right eye.

She was quite tall, coupled with her current expressionless face, it gave off a feeling of a cold and indifferent superior.

With 'her' ice-blue eyes, Daleth looked at Isaac and said: "Is this adequate?"

"It's good. This form... Looks fantastic." Isaac gave a thumbs up and kept an indifferent face. Although, yes, he did find her beautiful, but not to the point that he'll be drooling all over. He was just admiring her beauty.

Changing the subject, Isaac clasped both of his hands and said to her: "Alright then, let us start. Try to step over the arena's boundary using your left foot."

Daleth nodded and went to where Isaac wanted her to go. Arriving at the arena's boundary, Daleth moved one of her legs and took a step out of the arena.

One second has passed.

Two seconds have passed.

Three seconds have passed.

After a few more seconds, Daleth made her other foot move out too, completely going out of the arena.

Seeing the successful attempt, Isaac smiles proudly. "It seems like it was a success."

Daleth looked around first, taking in the view of more of the outside she had not seen before as a hypostasis trapped in the arena. Breathing in heavily and letting out a sigh, she turned around to Isaac and curled up a small smile. "Yes... Thank you."

"Yeah... Congrats, Daleth." Isaac replied with a smile.

"Should I call her Madam?" Moccus jokingly said.

Isaac made a small laugh and said: "Haha, nice joke. However, I'm not trying to find a partner any time soon..."

'I need to find a way out of this mountain first...' Isaac secretly thought.

Moccus made a low scoff and said with a low voice as he walk past by Isaac. "No fun..."

As Moccus left, Isaac too was about to leave when he noticed that Daleth was still waiting for him. She held up her snow-white arm and said, "I shall accompany you."

'I'm not a child...' Isaac secretly thought. He didn't pick up her hand and just said, "It's fine. We can just walk together."

"Okay." Daleth agreed, and soon, both of them walked together back to the camp.

Moccus was the one leading the way while Isaac was trying to not let Daleth wander off as she seemed to be curious about everything that she had seen for a very long time. Though, it's just ice and snow everywhere so what could there possibly be curious about?

* * *

Meanwhile, back at the camp, with the other two survivors starting to show signs of waking up, Parsifal seems to be interested in something else.

"Oh! That's amazing!" He said to a Cryo Whopperflower that was shooting out snow like some kind of a machine gun.

As for the Cryo Whopperflower that just appeared, it's the same one that Isaac encountered that wanted to be a loyal servant.

Isaac clearly left it behind at the foot of the mountain, but somehow, it made its way back here.

But its intentions seem to be good enough; so it's fine by Isaac's standards of monsters.
