74. A Long Slumber in This Frozen Prison

The hazel-eyed young man fell into sudden silence, the stillness of the night seeming to engulf his thoughts after hearing those words. Moreover, his eyes remained fixed on the figure of a man lying rigid atop an icy slab, surrounded by a room filled with blooming ice flowers.

He could not utter a word; only his eyes spoke, voicing the countless questions swirling in his mind.

The nameless young man glanced at Kairav, noticing the silence and showing a rare hint of sympathy. Calmly, he reached out and gently removed the Eternal Crimson Guardian necklace hanging from his friend's neck.

Kairav's expression darkened further as the red gem was taken from him, allowing his eyes to perceive the presence of a white unicorn spirit with a silver horn, soundly asleep beside the man in the chamber.

In the quiet, Kairav stepped slowly into the room, approaching the icy slab that served as the bed for the man the nameless young man had referred to as his father.
