As soon as Gauss finished speaking in that flat tone, the air went oddly still.
No one said a word. Only the keening wind and the faint, unhurried sound of Gauss chewing jerky remained.

Once everything was ready, Gauss and Alia waited in Grayrock Town for a few more days.
In those few days, the weather steadily turned colder.
At last, the notice they’d been waiting...
“It’s snowing—so sudden.”
Over breakfast, the two of them talked about the unexpected early snowfall.

Gauss had absolutely no doubt — in front of this man, he wouldn’t last more than a few breaths. He might not even have the chance to draw a teleportation scroll, let alone channel magic to acti...

Before they knew it, evening had fallen.
Gauss and Alia had been running around all day, and only now were all their errands finally done.

“It’s getting a bit chilly.”
Gauss exhaled, white mist forming in the air as he lifted his eyes from the book in his hands.
He remembered that autumn always seemed to arrive sud...
Night deepened.
The chill of autumn crept in quietly through the window cracks, the air crisp and clear like spring water. The world outside had fallen into an unusually serene silence.

A wave of rich, steaming aroma rushed out to greet them.

Gauss could definitely feel it—something heavy was hanging over the whole town of Grayrock.
But what exactly… he couldn’t quite put into words.
Was it sadness? Not really.
