"Here they come, Sampo's about to become the entertainment~"

Inside the Astral Express family chat:

[Big Robot is Awesome]: Excuse me, are you really Aeons?

[Immortal Dragon - Qin]: Yo, Old Yang, you don't know me, but I know another version of you from another universe~

[Immortal Dragon - Qin]: Whether it's real or fake, that's for you to decide.

[Destruction - Nanook]: @Immortal Dragon - Qin, Immortal, fight me!

[Immortal Dragon - Qin]: Forget it, I'm already at the multi-dimensional universe Golden Immortal level. Fighting you would be too much, your universe couldn't handle it.

[Joy - Aha]: Fight, fight, fight!

[Harmony - Hype]: ??? Can't say a word.

[Big Robot is Awesome]: ...

At this point, most of the Express Crew were silently watching the drama unfold. After all, Aeons chatting in their group chat was something that would probably scare people to death if it got out.

[Teruriri World's Number One Cutie]: I have a question!

[Big Robot is Awesome]: !!!

[Big Robot is Awesome]: My dear aunt, please don't add to the chaos!

[All Aeons]: ?

[Teruriri World's Number One Cutie]: @Destruction - Nanook, I have a very serious question, are Stellaron your creation?

[Destruction - Nanook]: So what if it is, so what if it isn't?

[Teruriri World's Number One Cutie]: @Stellaron Essence, quickly call him Daddy, Stellaron is his creation!

[Stellaron Essence]: @Destruction - Nanook, Daddy Nanook?

[Entangling Fate Spirit]: Pfft!

[Dan Heng]: This is outrageous!

[Big Robot is Awesome]: ...

[Elegant Beautiful Navigator]: It doesn't seem wrong?

[Teruriri World's Number One Cutie]: Fun!

[Joy - Aha]: @Teruriri World's Number One Cutie, Not bad, not bad! Aha really didn't misjudge you! Aha is very satisfied, this is too much fun!

[Immortal Dragon - Qin]: Fun, doesn't seem wrong?

[Destruction - Nanook]: You all get lost!

The Aeons began teasing Nanook, causing the Nanook in the universe to furiously destroy a few galaxies. As for Yaoshi of Abundance and Lan of the Hunt, they were still chasing each other across the sea of stars.

At this point, everyone put down their terminals. Dan Heng and March 7th also gained a newfound appreciation for Theresa's ability to stir up trouble.

"This is unprecedented, isn't it? Aeons being pulled into a group chat by that God of Mischief. What makes me even more curious is, do they also have terminals?"

Dan Heng exclaimed, his mind overloaded. He certainly wasn't aloof anymore; after all, if the Aeons were this jovial, what else could he do?

"Brrr, don't you guys feel like it's getting colder? Even my ice powers feel the chill."

"It really is a world of ice and snow."

March 7th quickly wrapped herself in a pink coat and exclaimed.

"It really is a world of ice and snow." *2

Theresa and Stelle echoed her.

"You guys are just repeating yourselves!"

March 7th rolled her eyes in annoyance.

"Let's get back to business. We need to find a place to stay. We can't stay in this snowfield forever. This is already overcast weather; if the sun were out, it would be easy to get snow blindness, which would cause significant damage to our eyes. So, we must find a place to shelter as soon as possible."

Dan Heng said seriously to everyone. Although they were temporarily protected from the cold by Trailblaze's presence, staying in the snowfield long-term wasn't a sustainable plan.

"Don't worry, what can stop the four of us! Well, besides Aeons and Envoys~"

"Stelle is a Stellaron Essence, Theresa is an Envoy of Joy, I have the unparalleled Six Elements Ice, and Dan Heng has a mysterious past."

"Anyone who dares to cause trouble for us will be unlucky!"

March 7th said excitedly with a laugh.

"They'll be unlucky!" *2

Stelle and Theresa repeated.

"You guys are doing it again!"

March 7th glared at them. Then, Dan Heng mentioned that Himeko had marked a location for them, the only town on this planet, Belobog.

"Belobog?"

Stelle asked, scratching her head.

"It's Belobog!"

"Let's go, let's go! Do you want to turn into snowmen?"

"Trailblazer squad, let's move out!"

March 7th led everyone towards the marked spot. The group chattered and laughed as they walked away, leaving behind the snowman built by Theresa, March 7th, and Stelle in the snowy plains.

"Isn't it the trouble-making squad?"

Theresa quickly asked.

"Haven't you caused enough trouble already?"

Dan Heng looked at Theresa helplessly, sighing. Theresa chuckled awkwardly at his words. Who knew it would actually attract an Aeon!

The group advanced deeper into the snowy plains.

As they journeyed deeper, they encountered various World of Calamity monsters wandering the plains, such as ice-elemental fractured creatures and fire-elemental humanoid monsters.

"This place hasn't been corrupted yet, but monsters born from the World of Calamity have already appeared. The Stellaron in this world is probably extraordinary."

Dan Heng explained as they walked. Afterward, they encountered a Simulated Ebon. Stelle curiously took a picture and asked Welt, who provided an explanation. At this point, the previously active Aeons had all gone into hiding.

After all, they had their own matters to attend to. Everyone endured the strangeness and coexisted harmoniously with the Aeons. As for informing Herta and Asta, they would wait for another opportunity. It's been over a year since the game launched, how nostalgic. The group easily dealt with the wandering World of Calamity monsters and then spotted what appeared to be a trembling snowdrift in the distance.

"Huh? Did you guys see that? That snowdrift seems to be moving. Is something hiding inside?"

March 7th asked in surprise.

"Everyone be careful. I'll handle this."

Dan Heng said as he led everyone closer to the snowdrift to examine it. They then discovered that a tall man seemed to be hiding inside, and shivering sounds could be heard from within.

"Hey, stop hiding! You're freezing and shivering~"

March 7th called out to the trembling snowdrift.

However, the snowdrift immediately fell silent.

"Uh, it's no use holding your breath and not making a sound. We've already found you."

March 7th's helpless voice could be heard. Dan Heng stepped forward and drew his Cloud-Piercer.

"Move aside, March. The best way to deal with someone trying to fool themselves is to take the bell and smash it over their head."

Dan Heng prepared to strike with his Cloud-Piercer.

"I'll do it!"

Theresa excitedly shouted, holding a tree branch. She ran forward with her short legs, holding the branch, but tripped on the accumulated snow and fell with a thud onto the ground. The tree branch she accidentally threw whistled through the air, and after Dan Heng, March 7th, and Stelle dodged it, it stuck into the snowdrift.

"Ah♂"

A tall man yelped in pain and jumped up. A tree branch, accidentally thrown by Theresa, was stuck in his posterior. He gasped, grabbed the branch, and pulled it out with force. Splatters of blood flew out, causing everyone to quickly dodge.

"Ow! It hurts so much! I was just hiding in the snowdrift, who did I bother? This is a disaster!"

"My backside!"

The tall man clutched his rear and cried out with a pained expression.

"Oof!"

Stelle pulled Theresa up from the snow. When the tall man saw Theresa, his face immediately froze.

Today's beautiful picture: the lovely Theresa.
