Almost everyone, including Atlas, used their weapons to support themselves as they marched forward. Pushing through the numbness spreading through their bodies or clearing away the snow that threatened to swallow them whole.
At the front of the group, Baldric, with his fire-wreathed body, led the way. His flames melted through the snow, creating a clear path behind him that made it easier for the rest of the troops to follow.
After a while, a notification appeared on Atlas's system. A message from Kurogasa.
[Kurogasa]: "My Lord, I've found a suitable place for us to take shelter."
Atlas opened his map and saw Kurogasa's marker, indicating a high ground position not far from their current location. It was precisely the type of elevated area they had been aiming for.
The spot wasn't just a safe haven from the storm. It was also a strategic vantage point. From there, they could observe the surrounding terrain and defend themselves more effectively against potential threats.
