Ash didn't put on a show, and he didn't say anything harsh, much to the flattery of the Winterclaws gang.

She clenched her longbow a little nervously, after all, she had just fought a battle, and there was no Sejuani to lead the allegiance, so it was probably not so easy for them to let go of their hatred at this moment. She began to feel that her easy-going and tolerant personality seemed to these people to be a sign of cowardice.

But she was wrong, and after a moment of silence, a strong cry erupted from the Claws of Winter. She defeated the mighty Mother of Winter with her skill, and was praised as the choice of Avarosa and the bearer of the Holy Bow, and asked for her foresight and bravery to lead them to a life of abundance.

Although more people shouted the name of the goddess Avarosa, believing that it was the goddess who had come to shoot such a miraculous arrow to defeat Sejuani, Ash still heard her name vaguely from it.

She doesn't care about anything, she doesn't want to correct anything, and she faces it calmly with a smile. Avarosa's reincarnation often makes things go well, but she wants Freljord to be unification more than her personal will to be respected.

Ash's magnanimity conquered the people, and as she raised her bow high, the cheers rose again.

By the time the Winterclaws had caught up with the army, Ash found Jano who was staying with Nunu and thanked him from the bottom of his heart.

"Thank you for helping Avarossa win a vital war, and thank you for helping Winterclaw banish Spirit Bear's haze. We are fortunate that we can be allies, and I hope that we can continue to maintain such a friendly relationship in the years to come, just like brothers and sisters. ”

Ash had a smile on her face as the ice melted, and the cold wind blew through her silver hair, gently touching the corners of her mouth. Her youthful and delicate appearance is very deceptive, and it is often forgotten that she is already an experienced war mother.

Just when Jeno was stunned, Ash took the initiative to reach out and hold Jeno's palm. He could feel the strength of Ash's hand, as if he didn't want to let him go, squeezing his palm tightly.

There was a fire-like enthusiasm from the cold palm, which was the temperature of trust and friendship.

Jeno didn't think much about it, maybe it was his group that played a key role in this journey, which made Ash feel a little dependent. A strong and friendly ally, who doesn't like it?

"No thanks, it's right to help each other." Jeno said with a smile, and asked about Sejuani's situation by the way: "By the way, haven't you caught up with Sejuani, the war mother?" ”

Ash shook her head and said, "She hadn't woken up before, and then Udir took her to the furnace country first, I think she might have woken up now." ”

"Is that so......" Jeno looked at Ash's somewhat uncomfortable expression, thinking that she should also want to talk to Sejuani as soon as possible, but she had to come and talk to herself herself. He raised his head, looked at the sinking sky, listened to Cana's urging in his ear, and said to Ash, "Since it's not early, let's go too." ”

The Abyss took off, sailed above the herd and the convoy, and soon overtook the front of the large army.

They landed on the circular pit, and Ash disembarked in search of it, where he soon found Sejuani. Jeno thought that there might be melons to eat, so he followed him without permission.

Ash spotted Sejuani setting up an ivory tent with Udir while chatting about something.

"We started out with Volibel, but then we almost paid a terrible price - Spirit Bear almost turned us into losers, both adults and children. Sejuani, you shouldn't have gambled with your own life. ”

"I don't have a choice, if I don't ask Spirit Bear for help, we will definitely lose some people."

"Part and all you know how to choose."

"Should they just be abandoned?" Sejuani stopped what she was doing: "Only an incompetent war mother would let the children of the tribe starve to death. ”

"Winter is coming, in fact, everyone is in the same situation, you don't have to blame yourself so much." Udir patted Sejuani on the shoulder. "Let's just let this go like this, Ash has already had someone help us drive out Spirit Bear. Sejuani, she has never been our enemy. ”

"She'......," Sejuani's lips, which had turned dark purple from the cold, pursed bitterly.

"She's coming, tell her yourself." Udir looked up and interrupted, seeing Ash standing not far behind Sejuani, and nodded to each other.

Hearing this, Sejuani subconsciously turned her head to look behind. But she didn't know what to say, and there was nothing to say about the king's defeat, so she continued to pitch her tent and wait for Ash to speak first.

Ash pulled her hair, then stepped over and helped Sejuani stick her ivory spear into the hard ground.

"I really miss those nights when we slept in the same tent." Ash sighed.

Sejuani's hand paused, and she still vividly remembered the nights when they looked up at the stars together. It's just that she is a little confused about it, and she feels that her relationship with Ash can't go back to what it used to be, so she wants to avoid these topics.

"Did you hear all that?" She asked, not taking Ash's topic.

"yes." Ash replied.

"What do you think about our alliance Volibel? Is there a different view of Avarossa's reincarnation? ”

Hearing this title, Ash smiled helplessly:

"I believe that is a desperate choice, now you are different from before, you are in charge of thousands of people, that is not a person who can be supported by breaking into the forbidden land of the lost in a small boat."

Ash's every word was full of memories, and Sejuani couldn't help but think of those fearless green years, and couldn't help but laugh.

"But you feed tens of thousands of people."

"I only did it by fighting for good land, exchanging my labor for food from nature, and adding careful savings. It is definitely more difficult to feed a few thousand people in the barren north than it is to feed tens of thousands in the south. ”

Each other's modesty caused both of them to laugh at the same time, as if the mustard was being gently put down. As for the question that Sejuani had just asked, Ash gave the answer in his heart.

"Sejuani, God and Spirit guide us, but our lives belong to us."

Sejuani pondered Ash's words seriously, and she wanted to tell herself that she should not give her life to the so-called gods, and that she should not believe in any vague legends and prophecies.

"I won't believe in the Old Gods and the Three Sisters anymore, for a long time I have been deceived by the lies woven by Lisandro. The gods are selfish, we have to listen to our hearts and take our destiny into our own hands. Sejuani grinned toothily and shook hands with Ash.
