Snow stormed throughout the forest.

The ground was covered with nearly a meter of snow, and the trees had transformed into silhouettes of ice and snow.

It was the height of winter.

It had been about four months since Alex had arrived in this world.

Currently, it was noon. Sadly, the sun couldn't be seen clearly as a violent blizzard stormed throughout the forest.

Judging by the nearly horizontal icicles on the trees, this blizzard had been going on for a long time already.

CRK! CRK!

Suddenly, something pushed the snow beneath a huge, dead tree to the side.

An opened door was revealed, which led to a small, warm area beneath the tree without snow.

A figure cloaked in black stepped out of the area.

Everything about the figure had been hidden by black fur, including the figure's head.

The figure looked like a faceless shadow of fur.

This was Alex.

Alex had finished his hut in time, but the hut hadn't been able to resist the storms in the winter, which was why it had collapsed.

Now, Alex only lived in a tiny "room" at the bottom of the dead tree. Only a diagonal barrier of wood protected him from the cold snow.

This was the best Alex could do in this situation.

Luckily, it was effective enough.

Right now, the temperatures even reached -40 degrees Celsius, which was frightening for someone living outside.

However, Alex didn't feel cold at all.

Something was keeping him warm, even while traveling through the forest.

Alex slowly stepped through the forest.

Why was Alex walking through this blizzard?

Because he had no other choice.

Alex's food had run out several days ago, and he had wanted to wait for the blizzard's end.

However, the blizzard just didn't end.

A conspicuous, dark shadow traveled across the snowy forest, the only dark thing in sight.

It was an oddity.
