Chapter 428 Nightly Talks

Upon spotting the darkened look on Jonathan's countenance, Yeverie said, “We'll definitely leave this place, Your Majesty.”

Slightly stunned, Jonathan glanced at Yeverie. I can't believe she's worried I'd get discouraged. Smiling, he replied, “I believe it, too. However, I feel bad that you have to endure this suffering.”

“It's fine.” Yeverie blushed. “As long as I'm with you, I don't feel like I'm suffering, Your Majesty.”

Jonathan chuckled.

Neither of them could figure out what the situation was in the snowfield.

Jonathan wished he had a pair of wings so he could fly up high and study the land from above. It's like my eyes are blindfolded. I keep trying to clear the fog in front of me away so I can see clearly, but I can't.

The snowstorm had ceased, leaving the snowfield in eerie silence.

Sometimes, people wished for their surroundings to be quieter. Nevertheless, living in an environment devoid of sound would really scare them and drive them mad.

Therefore, neither Jonathan nor Yeverie could sleep.

Most of the time, they would pretend to slumber but couldn't resist opening their eyes eventually. There were also a few times, they even caught each other staring.

They found those instances hilarious and eventually opted not to sleep at all.

“Let's chat a little,” suggested Jonathan.

“Sure.” Yeverie nodded.

the survival of the fittest in an ironic way. Beings who seem powerful are often the ones facing annihilation. For example, tigers, leopards, polar bears, and even dinosaurs. They're all mighty creatures, yet they face extinction, even more so for dinosaurs since they all died out very early on. In contrast, planktonic microorganisms have been thriving. Humans have survived not because they're powerful but because they're intelligent. That's their strength. Still, humans die easily. Just
