When I opened my eyes, it was already the afternoon of our 26th day here.
"Oh, you're finally awake?"
Leo was munching on a sandwich, relishing a snack while my stomach grumbled in hunger as usual.
"Angh," I groaned while trying to sit up straight.
My vision was blurred, and it was clear from the throbbing headache I was feeling that I might have had a concussion.
After my vision cleared, I glanced around and realized that we were currently in the middle of the woods.
The tall trees stood proudly around us, covered in a thick coat of snow, much like the wintry ground beneath our feet.
Surrounding us were huge boulders, which was a common sight since we were in the mountainous terrains.
Naturally, taking shelter in the woods was dangerous since there were bound to be numerous vicious mana beasts hiding in the forest.
However, I also knew that none of them would dare to approach us because of Leo's presence.
