00:00First day of school. Teachers hand out magic animals by grade.
00:04Leah, the top student and class president, walks up without hesitation.
00:08She takes the SSS level White Wolf.
00:11I'm at the bottom of the class ranking, so I get an F level Black Bear.
00:15Then, the Ice Age hits.
00:17Because I bonded with the Black Bear, I got its natural skill, Cold Resistance.
00:22Leah's White Wolf hasn't even grown yet.
00:24It freezes to death on the first day of the apocalypse.
00:27But that's not the worst part.
00:30Driven by jealousy, Leah gets others to attack me.
00:33They kill my bear!
00:35They roast and eat it right in front of me!
00:38I'm heartbroken.
00:39Then, I die.
00:41When I open my eyes again, I'm back on the day the magic animals were handed out.
00:45Leah shoves the White Wolf into my arms without a word.
00:49Then, she takes the Black Bear from the cage.
00:51You take the White Wolf. I want the Black Bear.
00:54The whole classroom goes silent.
00:56Even our teacher, Mr. Smith, frowns.
00:59Everyone knows the White Wolf has the purest bloodline in this batch.
01:0380% ancient bloodline.
01:05The Black Bear has less than 20%.
01:07It's considered a lower species.
01:09Mr. Smith leans forward.
01:10Leah, choosing your contract animal is no joke.
01:14It will affect your whole life.
01:16Mr. Smith, Allura needs this White Wolf more than I do.
01:19My grades are good.
01:21New member lot magic on one more my bond.
01:23I can train it quickly.
01:24But Allura's talent is pathogenage.
01:27You he only shimpered a low-blood black zone.
01:29Her future is vapes around.
01:31Your heart is pure.
01:33Mr. Smith nods.
01:34I'm satisfied.
01:34A selfless heart will carry you further than any contract creature.
01:38Then he turns to me and frowns.
01:41Why are you just standing there?
01:43Thank Leah.
01:44I can hand the White Wolf pup back to her.
01:46It's okay.
01:47You don't have to switch with me.
01:49Leah's eyes flash with panic.
01:51She hugs the Black Bear tighter.
01:52You don't have to test me.
01:53I really want to switch.
01:55I'm serious.
01:57You keep it.
01:58Before I finish, something sharp bites my hand.
02:01Blood rushes out.
02:02The White Wolf just broke my contract with it.
02:05And it's a life and death blood contract.
02:08My classmates start booing.
02:09They thought Allura was just being difficult.
02:12Pretending to give the White Wolf back while secretly contracting it.
02:15First time seeing someone so fake.
02:17I hear the whispers.
02:18My face turns red.
02:20They don't know I really don't want this useless White Wolf.
02:22After the pup forces a contract on me,
02:24I have no choice but to endure the stairs and go back to my seat.
02:27Only I know.
02:28This White Wolf everyone wants so badly
02:30will become a useless burden in half a month.
02:33No, not just me.
02:34Leah knows too.
02:35The moment she gave up the White Wolf and fought me for the Black Bear,
02:38I knew she was also reborn.
02:40I stare at the bear resting against Leah's chest.
02:42In my past life, we were so close.
02:44We trusted each other completely.
02:46Now Leah has taken it.
02:47I can accept being apart from it.
02:49But I can't stop thinking.
02:50Is it being fed well?
02:51Is it being treated right?
02:52I'm staring at it when the bear slowly turns its head and meets my eyes.
02:56Then it blinks.
02:57Once.
02:57Twice.
02:58Not once.
02:59Not three times.
03:00Twice.
03:01My mood lifts immediately.
03:02Two blinks are a signal.
03:03A secret code we made together in our past life.
03:06Now the bear's using it to tell me it remembers.
03:08It's reborn too.
03:09I'm still exchanging looks with the bear when something warm and soft wraps around my fingers.
03:13I look down.
03:14The White Wolf is awake.
03:15I'm not useless.
03:18Stop staring at that chubby black ugly thing.
03:21I poke it gently.
03:22You can talk?
03:23The White Wolf snorts proudly and rolls over in my arms.
03:27My name is Caesar.
03:28You can call me your highness if you want.
03:31I flick its forehead.
03:33Who taught you to be so dramatic?
03:35Mr. Smith is at the blackboard, explaining how to draw a binding circle.
03:39Most contracts are started by humans, since magic animals are naturally proud creatures.
03:45Pups are gentler than adults.
03:47Everyone starts trying to sign a contract.
03:49Except me, because I've already been forced into one by a wolf.
03:54Caesar, why did you contract me?
03:56I whisper.
03:57I don't like that girl.
03:59She smells weird.
04:00I lower my voice.
04:02Weird.
04:04Laya is the most popular girl in school.
04:07Half the guys here would say she smells amazing.
04:10Those guys are blind.
04:11They can't see what's inside her.
04:13You're nice.
04:14You're kind of cute.
04:16He says, a little shy.
04:18I start scratching under Caesar's chin while class continues.
04:22The White Wolf's fur feels amazing.
04:25So soft.
04:26Thick like a cloud.
04:27Then I can't help it.
04:29I reach for his tail.
04:30The second my hand touches his tail, Caesar freezes.
04:34Through his white fur, I can see his skin turning pink.
04:38Stop.
04:39His voice sounds like someone who just got caught.
04:42And I mean, really embarrassed.
04:44What is wrong with you?
04:46I pull my hand back, keeping a straight face.
04:48Relax.
04:49You have too much imagination.
04:51Caesar's face turns bright red.
04:53He turns his head away and refuses to look at me.
04:55Across the classroom, Laya successfully completes her summoning circle.
04:58A flash of joy crosses her face.
05:00Then she aims the circle at the bear.
05:02The circle activates and rides around the bear quickly.
05:04In the glow, the bear quietly spits out a claw and makes two small adjustments to the
05:09circle.
05:09A standard equal contract silently turns into a master-servant contract.
05:14It's a trick we discovered together in the ruins of another world, while the bear is using
05:17it to put a collar on Laya.
05:19The bear looks across the room at me.
05:20He looks proud, satisfied with himself.
05:23I give him a thumbs up under my desk.
05:24You're pretty calculating.
05:26Caesar whispers in my ear.
05:28I'm squishing his soft, almost boneless little cheeks.
05:31Me?
05:32You touched my tail, then stared at that chubby guy for five full minutes.
05:35And you were making eyes at him.
05:37Caesar's voice gets more and more like he's actually hurt.
05:40I add one more thing to my mentalist about him.
05:42He gets completely, irrationally jealous.
05:45After class, Mr. Smith hands out supplies.
05:47One week's worth for each student.
05:49I keep one crystal for myself.
05:51I give the rest to Caesar.
05:53Nineteen crystals.
05:54Caesar crunches them all like potato chips.
05:56And everyone is staring in disbelief.
05:58Is she serious?
06:00That's a whole week's resources.
06:01She fed all of it to that wolf?
06:03Was she even listening in class?
06:05Magic animals grow slowly.
06:07You can't rush it.
06:08She should be using those crystals to train herself.
06:11That white wolf really got a bad deal bonding with her.
06:13Even the homeroom teacher frowns.
06:15Some of you should pay attention.
06:18If you waste them, the school won't give you more.
06:21The teacher doesn't name anyone.
06:23I answer politely.
06:24Yes, teacher.
06:25I know.
06:25To be honest, in my past life, I was very generous with the black bear's trading resources.
06:30Most students split resources four to one for their companion beasts.
06:34But I always split 50-50 with the black bear.
06:36I thought, we're partners.
06:38We should share equally.
06:39But even with the black bear, I was never this generous with the white wolf.
06:43Nineteen to one?
06:44More than that.
06:45My classmates think I'm crazy.
06:47I kind of think I'm crazy too.
06:48Then I remember, the white wolf bonded with me through a blood contract.
06:52With a normal equal contract, if one side dies, the other side is fine.
06:56But a blood contract is different.
06:58A blood contract means live together, die together.
07:01If the white wolf freezes to death on the first day of the apocalypse, like last time,
07:05then I die too.
07:06So yeah, this little guy's life is more important than anything.
07:09The rest of class time is for independent training.
07:11I carry the white wolf and head out.
07:13As I pass Leah, she blocks me with half her body.
07:15She speaks quietly.
07:17I know you're reborn too.
07:19This time, I'm the one who gets the black bear's gold resistance skill.
07:25I smile.
07:26Then make sure you stay alive.
07:28Raising a beast is a money pit.
07:30Where to get more magic crystals becomes a real problem.
07:34I pull on the white wolf's fur while I think.
07:36Then I remember.
07:38Right before the apocalypse hit in my past life, the media exposed a small crystal mine.
07:43If the timing is right, nobody should have found that mine yet.
07:47I'd straight to the crystal mine with the white wolf.
07:50But when I get to the spot I marked in my memory, Leah is already there.
07:54She got here before me.
07:56Leah comes from a rich family.
07:59Her connections and resources are way better than mine.
08:02A regular person.
08:03We stand at the edge of the mine, watching helplessly as Leah directs over 20 workers to dig out the
08:10crystals.
08:10The white wolf curls in my arms, watching crystal after shiny crystal get pulled out.
08:16He swallows hard.
08:18I cover the white wolf's eyes with my hand.
08:21Don't look.
08:22The crystals here are low quality.
08:24I walk away, looking back every few steps.
08:27Just as I'm about to leave, a surprised voice rings out in my head.
08:34Elora, is that you?
08:36I stop.
08:37Bear?
08:38You can send messages now?
08:41That woman, Leah, spent a lot on me.
08:44She gave me a soul-awakening herb.
08:48Now I can send messages through mental energy.
08:51The black bear continues.
08:53Elora, take the white wolf and find a place to rest.
08:57Once all the crystals are dug out, I'll call you.
09:00I finish talking with the black bear in my head.
09:02When I snap back to reality, a huge, beautiful wolf face is staring at me with deep suspicion.
09:09Caesar's front paws are on my shoulders.
09:12His proud face is so close, it's almost touching mine.
09:16Warm breath puffs onto my face.
09:20What are you doing?
09:21How dare you cheat on me?
09:23Caesar glares at me annoyed.
09:24I grab his neck with one hand and pull him off me.
09:27Then I squeeze his soft wolf face as punishment.
09:30Little kid, watch your words.
09:32Caesar sniffs.
09:34His face even looks a little hurt.
09:36I'm not wrong.
09:38Your spirit smells bad.
09:41It's that black bear, isn't it?
09:43I raise an eyebrow.
09:44This pup has a sharp nose.
09:47Caesar keeps complaining.
09:49We white wolves.
09:50Whoever we bond with through a blood contract becomes our partner for life.
09:56You can't sneak around with that black bear.
09:59My face flushes a little.
10:01Little kid, you're so young.
10:04What do you know about partners?
10:06Caesar's eyes fill with tears.
10:08He slaps his little paw on the ground.
10:11Once we white hoxies choose someone, it's forever.
10:16You can't get too close to that black bear.
10:20Before I can argue, a fuzzy head suddenly leans in and a wet nose rubs against my cheek.
10:26Then it quickly pulls back.
10:28Caesar's ears turn bright red, but his voice is completely sure of itself.
10:33This is a mark.
10:35You're mine now.
10:37I freeze.
10:38My mouth twitching.
10:40I leave the crystal mine to the black bear.
10:42When I wake up, it's dark outside.
10:44Right then, the black bear sends me a message.
10:47Allura, come quick.
10:49They've all left.
10:50I answer him.
10:51Then I look down and see Caesar watching me.
10:54His eyes are weary and annoyed.
10:56I feel a little guilty.
10:58Like a wife caught cheating by her husband.
11:01I quickly explain.
11:02We weren't talking about anything.
11:05Caesar turns his head away.
11:07Don't explain.
11:09I'm not listening.
11:10I'm not talking to you for the rest of the day.
11:12Under the night sky, I carry the white wolf and walk toward the crystal mine.
11:17Just like the black bear told me, nobody's around the mine anymore.
11:20There's only a magic circle left behind to hide it.
11:23I pace around the magic circle.
11:25Soon, the black bear undoes the circle and sticks his head out.
11:29He can talk out loud now.
11:31Allura, come here.
11:32The white wolf in my arms sees the black bear and immediately bares his teeth.
11:36He's a little naughty.
11:37The black bear walks ahead, leading the way.
11:40It's okay, Allura.
11:41Don't blame Caesar.
11:43Oh my god.
11:44He's fake.
11:44That black bear is so fake.
11:46Let me go.
11:47I'm going to bite him to death.
11:49Allura, don't stop me.
11:50I'm still alive.
11:51And you're meeting secretly with this fake black bear?
11:53Hiding behind a woman.
11:54What kind of man is that?
11:56Let me go.
11:57I'll bite him to the death.
11:58I look at the magic energy glowing faintly around the black bear's body.
12:02Then I let go.
12:03The white wolf drops to the ground.
12:05He turns back to look at me in disbelief.
12:08He moves toward the black bear at a snail's pace, taking a few steps, then looking back.
12:14He looks back a fourth time.
12:16You're not going to stop me.
12:18I'm afraid I might kill your little boyfriend.
12:21I glance at the magic energy around the black bear.
12:24After eating so many crystals, the black bear's magic energy is at least 50 times more than the white wolf's.
12:30It's hard to say who would kill who.
12:33I smile.
12:34Go ahead.
12:35Let me see how tough you really are.
12:37If you kill him, then there'll only be you left in my heart.
12:41The white wolf's paws dig nervously at the ground.
12:44My words tempt him a little.
12:46But then he glances at the magic energy around the black bear, which clearly threatens him.
12:51He shuffles back to my feet.
12:53Fine.
12:54Since you apologize so nicely, I'll forgive you for this secret meeting.
12:58But don't do it again, okay?
13:00The black bear splits the crystals from the mine into three piles.
13:06Elara, I'll just take these.
13:11Woman, that black bear is really generous with you.
13:15The black bear points to the small pile.
13:17Elara, these are for your training.
13:20And those are all for Caesar.
13:23Caesar's shouting starts up again in my head.
13:25Woman, I don't think he likes you.
13:29I think he likes me.
13:30I think he's me.
13:31I flick Caesar's head.
13:33Are you obsessed with love?
13:35Everything has to be about romance?
13:38Caesar looks like he wants to argue.
13:40I say softly,
13:42Do you still want the crystals?
13:44He behaves immediately.
13:46I look at the black bear, worried.
13:49If I take all these crystals, will Leah hurt you?
13:52The black bear shakes his head.
13:54Elara, that woman does whatever I say now.
13:57The next day, Leah stares at the empty crystal mine in shock.
14:01Her pretty face goes pale.
14:02Her voice shakes.
14:04You used all the crystals?
14:07The black bear nods.
14:08This tiny little mine isn't even a snack for me.
14:12Didn't you say you wanted me awake in my cold resistance skill in half a week?
14:17I just felt something.
14:19I think I'm hitting a wall.
14:20Leah's expression gets a little better, but she still complains.
14:24The whole mine's worth of crystals went into the black bear.
14:27At least you can awaken it.
14:28But your bloodline is so bad, you ate all that and barely grew.
14:32If you don't like my low bloodline, you didn't have to pick me.
14:35I didn't ask you to pick me, now you're giving me so much pressure.
14:38With all this pressure, I feel like I might forget how to awaken my skill.
14:41Leah knows how valuable the black bear's skill will be when the ice age comes in half a month.
14:45Don't feel pressured.
14:46I didn't mean it like that.
14:48If I didn't want you, I wouldn't have picked you in the first place.
14:51Fine.
14:52The black bear says reluctantly.
14:53I need crystals to train.
14:55Get someone to send me some.
14:57Not too much.
14:58Just ten truckloads.
15:00Leah's face goes white.
15:02She almost bites through her teeth.
15:05Ten truckloads?
15:07The black bear shrubs.
15:09Is that a lot?
15:10If you get me ten truckloads, maybe I can awaken an even better skill.
15:15Ten mile cold resistance.
15:18It can help everyone within ten kilometers survive the cold.
15:21Ten kilometers?
15:23That breath sparkles in Leah's eyes.
15:26If she can make everyone within ten kilometers ignore the cold when the ice age comes...
15:31Ten kilometers.
15:32Wouldn't that make her the Empress of the Apocalypse?
15:34Leah grits her teeth.
15:35Fine.
15:36Wait for me.
15:38Ten truckloads.
15:39I'll get them for you.
15:40When the Apocalypse comes, money is just paper.
15:43With no support from her family, Leah sells everything her family and parents gave her.
15:48The next time I see Leah at school, she's wearing old, out-of-style clothes.
15:53For lunch, just a slice of white bread with the cheapest canned pasta sauce from the grocery store.
15:58But she doesn't know.
16:00Of those ten truckloads of crystals she sold everything for, only a tiny part stayed with the black bear.
16:07The other 99% went into my and the white wolf's pockets.
16:12I use one or two crystals to train a little, just so I don't forget how to use magic.
16:16The rest of the crystals, I give all to Caesar.
16:20Caesar devours crystals fast.
16:22He falls into a deep sleep.
16:24Whenever crystals are near him, a strong force pulls them in and turns them to powder instantly.
16:30Leah's magic energy now is even less than other students in the class.
16:34She hasn't kept a single crystal for herself.
16:37All for the black bear.
16:39The black bear always guilt trips her.
16:42Everyone says Leah has lost her mind.
16:44Ever since the first day of school, when she randomly picked the weakest, lowest bloodline black bear, she hasn't seemed
16:51right.
16:52What do you know?
16:54In a few days, you'll see that I was right all along.
16:56The day before the Apocalypse.
16:58On a hot summer day, the temperature suddenly drops overnight.
17:03Snow falls all over the world.
17:05At first, people joke about the crazy weather.
17:08But by noon the next day, the global temperature has dropped to minus 20 degrees.
17:13People start to get worried.
17:15The weather is so strange.
17:16Is some kind of disaster coming?
17:19Leah shivers wrapped in her blanket.
17:21She's been neglecting her training.
17:22Her magic energy is very weak, only a little stronger than a normal person.
17:27Her nose is red.
17:29She keeps wiping it with tissues.
17:30The black bear is on the ground, slowly chewing on crystals.
17:34Ten days have passed.
17:36The black bear has grown several times bigger.
17:38He's basically a teenager now.
17:40Leah stares at the black bear for a long time.
17:43And she asks, are you lying to me?
17:46Alakta didn't give you nearly this many crystals last time.
17:50Why are you awakening slower now?
17:52The black bear's heart tightens.
17:54But his face doesn't change.
17:56Last time?
17:57What last time?
17:59What are you talking about?
18:01Leah freezes.
18:02If the black bear were also reborn, he would know exactly what she meant.
18:06She slowly lets out a breath.
18:09Nothing.
18:10I was just overthinking.
18:12The black bear pretends to get angry.
18:15I'm training so hard for you.
18:17And now you're accusing me?
18:19I was going to share a little warmth with you, even if I don't fully awaken my skill.
18:25But fine.
18:26Here.
18:27Take your crystals back.
18:28I don't need them.
18:30I have thick fur.
18:31Even without your crystals, the cold won't kill me.
18:34No, no.
18:35That's not what I meant.
18:36I'm sorry.
18:37I was wrong.
18:38I was just talking out of anger.
18:40Keep the crystals.
18:41Nothing is more important than you awakening your skill.
18:46I'll forgive you this time.
18:48The black bear snorts and goes back to chewing crystals.
18:51Between bites, he shares a tiny bit of warmth with Leah.
18:55Just a little.
18:56He doesn't want her to freeze to death before the real apocalypse comes tomorrow.
19:00In another dorm room, all the crystals in the room have been absorbed by Caesar.
19:04But Caesar, lying on the white sheepskin rug, still hasn't woken up.
19:09Caesar is no longer a pup without me noticing.
19:12He's now the size of a full-grown magical beast.
19:15I get out of bed and touch Caesar's nose.
19:18He's still breathing.
19:20I relax a little.
19:21The clock on the wall ticks toward midnight.
19:24The real apocalypse is coming.
19:26In this life, Caesar won't freeze to death on the first day, right?
19:30The clock strikes midnight.
19:32The global temperature drops sharply again.
19:35The thermometer in the room reads minus 50 degrees.
19:39I'm a magic user.
19:40Plus, the magic energy flowing back from Caesar.
19:43I have enough to ignore this level of cold.
19:45The snow keeps falling outside.
19:47It's already piled higher than a one-story building.
19:51Also, because of the extreme cold, the school is short on people.
19:55They're urgently recruiting volunteers.
19:57I sign up to be a volunteer.
19:59I help distribute supplies to students in different dorms.
20:02When I get to Leah's dorm, I skip it.
20:05Leah tags me.
20:07What's going on?
20:08Where are my supplies?
20:09Supplies are extremely limited right now.
20:12The snow might not stop for a long time.
20:15Shouldn't supplies go to the people who need them most?
20:18Don't act all high and mighty!
20:22You knew the Ice Age was coming too!
20:24You also stockled supplies!
20:26Why don't you share yours?
20:28I don't know anything about an Ice Age apocalypse.
20:31Everyone knows my family is poor.
20:34I only bought so many noodles because they were on sale.
20:38And I already gave them all to my classmates.
20:42Alara, even if you win some popularity points, so what?
20:48That useless white wool you're raising must be frozen dead by now!
20:54Are you talking about this white wool?
20:58Impossible!
20:59That useless wolf pup grows so slowly!
21:03He's so delicate!
21:04He must be frozen dead by now!
21:07I yawn and don't answer Leah anymore.
21:11Even with Caesar's magic protecting me, the extreme cold is still making me a little chilly.
21:17I open my closet to grab another blanket.
21:19Then a wave of warm magic hits me.
21:22I know this feeling well.
21:24It's the warmth from the black bear's cold resistance skill!
21:27Bear, we're not contracted.
21:29Can you still share your skill with me?
21:32Alara, I awakened 10 Mile Cold Resistance.
21:35In my past life, I just didn't have enough resources to help him awaken with his skill.
21:40So he forced a partial awakening to protect me.
21:43That's why he got the weaker version!
21:45I smile.
21:47How's Leah doing?
21:48The black bear shares his vision with me.
21:50Leah was so sure the black bear would awaken his skill.
21:53She keeps asking,
21:55Are you...
21:56Are you...
21:57Are you awake yet?
21:59The teenage black bear jumps onto the bed.
22:02He shoves Leah with his butt and knocks her to the floor.
22:05The cold floor and her stiff body meet with a crack.
22:09Who knows how many bones just broke?
22:11Leah screams in pain.
22:13What are you doing?
22:14I have good news.
22:16I awakened my skill.
22:18Leah's eyes flash with greed.
22:20She forgets about being knocked off the bed.
22:23Hurry, hurry!
22:24Share your skill with me!
22:26I'm freezing to death!
22:28When did I say I would share it with you?
22:31Leah goes crazy.
22:33She screams.
22:34I am your master!
22:36I spent everything I had on Rono's Crystals to help you awaken.
22:41How dare you not share with me?
22:44We have a contract.
22:46Even if you don't share, I can still use your power.
22:51Leah quickly tries to use the contract to take the black bear's power.
22:54The black bear smiles coldly.
22:57Open your eyes and look closely.
22:59What kind of contract did we sign?
23:02Leah checks the contract again.
23:04She finds two parts of the magic circle have been changed.
23:08The black bear's eyes are full of contempt.
23:10See clearly?
23:12This is a master-servant contract.
23:15And you think you deserve to share my skill.
23:18Leah lies on the ground, stunned.
23:21You...
23:22You're reborn too.
23:23The second day of the Ice Age apocalypse.
23:26Global temperatures are no longer reported.
23:29Just like last time, power, water, and internet all shut down.
23:33Many people don't wake up that night.
23:35Five days later, the school has completely fallen apart.
23:39Many students have run out of supplies.
23:41They start breaking into other dorms to steal food.
23:44A few older students outside my door are targeting me.
23:48I'm afraid my strength.
23:49With the black bear's cold protection,
23:51plus the magic energy flowing back from Caesar's training,
23:54Even many teachers at the school couldn't beat me now.
23:57Even if they come in a group, I'm not scared.
24:00I gather magic energy in my palm, ready to strike.
24:04Before I can act, a huge wave of energy explodes out of my room.
24:08I can imagine from the sound alone,
24:11people getting thrown everywhere outside.
24:13Caesar is still curled on the blanket, eyes closed.
24:16A voice, cold and powerful,
24:19speaks through mental energy from my room to the outside.
24:22Get lost.
24:24The people outside scramble away in terror.
24:27I touch Caesar's head.
24:28Caesar, are you waking up?
24:31People also try to break into Leah's dorm,
24:33but the black bear chases them all the way.
24:35With the black bear around, Leah isn't dead yet.
24:39But she's gross.
24:40She lies on the ground.
24:42Every time she's about to pass out,
24:44the black bear, needing to pee,
24:46sprays hot, stinky bear urine on her face.
24:49Just keeping you warm, be grateful.
24:51The black bear has a good memory,
24:53and he holds grudges.
24:55He finds everyone who helped Leah kill me and Caesar in the past life.
24:59One by one, he bites them all to death.
25:03The remaining people in the school never wronged him,
25:05so the black bear stops hiding.
25:07He activates his skill,
25:0910-mile cold resistance.
25:11Warmth flows through everyone in the entire school,
25:14like being wrapped in a warm blanket.
25:16Even Leah, lying on the ground waiting to die,
25:19finally gets to feel cold resistance.
25:22Hot, warmth floods her whole body.
25:25For others, it might be a little too warm.
25:27For her, it's like a timer counting down to her death.
25:31Not just her bones.
25:33Many of her internal organs were ruptured in the fall.
25:36The extreme cold had been keeping them frozen,
25:38slowing the decay.
25:39But now, they're thawing.
25:42Her ice melted under spring sunlight.
25:45Leah's organs start failing and rotting.
25:47She lies on the ground, dazed.
25:49She slowly shifts her body,
25:51trying to find a more comfortable position.
25:54Dark, smelly fluid slowly drips from her eyes,
25:57nose, ears, and mouth.
25:59When she dies, her eyes stay open.
26:02This morning, I feel especially warm.
26:05I open my eyes and find myself completely pinned down
26:08by a huge body.
26:10A sharp, handsome face.
26:12Narrow bone structure.
26:13Clear features.
26:14Strong arms are wrapped tightly around my head.
26:17I look down slightly and see a tempting chest
26:19pressing toward me.
26:21He's so warm, like a cozy heater.
26:23I struggle a little.
26:25His narrow eyes flutter and slowly open.
26:27Light brown eyes.
26:28Not quite human.
26:29The familiar presence makes me guess.
26:31Caesar?
26:33The man's lips curl up happily.
26:35He grabs the blanket and throws it on the floor.
26:37Cool air hits my skin.
26:39But at the same time,
26:41his warm, intense presence wraps around me,
26:44making me want to press closer to him.
26:46He turns over and braces his arms on either side of me,
26:49straight above me.
26:51I blink and stare at him nervously.
26:53His toned abs form beautiful lines.
26:55His skin is white, clearer than milk.
26:58Clean, but powerful.
26:59He has long hair down to his waist.
27:02It falls like a waterfall, brushing against my collarbone.
27:05A white, fluffy tail sways back and forth.
27:09Woman, did you miss me?
27:11Okay, with those two words, I know for sure this is Caesar.
27:16So you finally...
27:16I roll my eyes.
27:18So you finally woke up?
27:20He laughs softly.
27:21His voice is as light as a feather.
27:24It makes my ears tingle.
27:25Oh no.
27:26His voice is so deep and attractive.
27:29I love it.
27:30You were worried about me.
27:32He says, sure of himself.
27:34I refuse to admit it.
27:36It's not like I wanted you to die.
27:37He lowers his head and pecks my lips.
27:43Woman, your mouth is still so disobedient.
27:45Oh my god.
27:46That was my first kiss.
27:48Not your first kiss.
27:50I kissed you before.
27:52We already marked each other.
27:54The reason he took so long to wake up is that he was awakening his natural skill.
27:58Caesar's bloodline is noble.
28:00Awakening his skill is much harder than for other magical beasts.
28:03But after all these days, he finally succeeded.
28:07Caesar, what's your skill?
28:09Caesar's voice is casual.
28:12Big.
28:13My eyes go wide.
28:14My mind starts wandering.
28:16I sneak a glance down.
28:18Well, it does look pretty big.
28:19But for a noble-blooded magical beast to awaken a skill like that?
28:23Caesar's lips curl into a proud smile.
28:26He pretends to be serious and teases me.
28:29Woman, why are you blushing?
28:31Did your mind go somewhere dirty?
28:33I meant the range of my skill.
28:36It's huge.
28:38As he speaks, the snow outside stops falling without anyone noticing.
28:42Thick clouds peel away, layer by layer.
28:45The sun appears in the sky, shining warm light on the earth.
28:48I hear excited voices from around the school.
28:51Look!
28:51The sun is out!
28:53The temperature doesn't feel as cold anymore!
28:55This is great!
28:56The apocalypse is finally ending!
28:59White wolves bring good fortune.
29:01The skill I awakened is called vitality.
29:03Caesar's beautiful face comes close to my ear.
29:06Warm breath tickles my neck.
29:08His fluffy tail presses against my lower belly.
29:11Alarta, what's my reward?
