Alex sat on the tree while a campfire was burning below him. Several skewers filled with meat were hanging near the fire, and Alex was eating one of those skewers right now. From time to time, Alex jumped down, retrieved another skewer, and went back to the tree. He still wasn't sure what kind of creatures lived in this area, so he tried to remain hidden.

Anything that came here would have its attention drawn to the fire and sled wagon, leaving Alex the initiative.

After eating quite a bit of meat, Alex pulled the remaining skewers from the fire, put some of his spare clothes around them, and put them on the sled wagon. He would eat them tomorrow while traveling.

A couple of hours passed, and it was now well into the night.

That's when Alex felt something approach.

Alex didn't hear or see the approaching creature, but he felt a lot of Ice Mana moving towards him.

Alex slowly stood up from the branch and silently moved to the next tree.

A feeling of nervousness appeared in Alex, but he forced himself to remain calm. 'Judging by the amount of Ice Mana being displaced, this is probably a creature of the Second Realm, and it's definitely not in the earlier stages.'

'I can't fight that.'

After moving two trees away from his makeshift camp, Alex closed his eyes to concentrate on feeling the Ice Mana in the atmosphere.

In Alex's mind, he saw a sizable, blue ball of Ice Mana moving towards his old camp. The blue ball of Mana was about two meters in diameter, which confused Alex a bit.

'It feels like the creature is about as long as it is wide. It's not as tall as it's wide or long, but it is still quite tall. I wonder what kind of creature that could be?'

Surprisingly, Alex heard absolutely nothing.

The forest was completely silent, which was a scary thought.

A creature of such a size should make some sort of noise. Sure, the Pest Cats were also silent creatures, but they had an Affinity for Darkness. Alex was pretty certain that the Darkness Affinity allowed the Pest Cats to remain silent.

Yet, the creature that had just entered Alex's camp obviously had an Ice Affinity.

'If I couldn't perceive Ice Mana, my survival would depend on luck. I would have remained on my branch, and I wouldn't even have noticed it. My survival would have completely hinged on it not seeing me on my branch.'

According to Alex's perception, the creature stopped before Alex's campfire, and then, Alex felt like it had gotten colder.
