Chapter 287 The World of Fate
"Hiss—it's so cold!"
In the desolate jungle, covered in snow, a cold wind blew, and all around was a vast expanse of white, with no other color in sight.
Crunch~ Crunch~
As Shi Chen walked on the snow, each step he took created a deep pit, completely submerging his calves, especially since he was wearing short sleeves.
He could only hold Frilian tightly, trying to get some warmth from her.
"Quickly... let me into your body..." Frillian was still wearing her short-sleeved white dress. In the freezing cold, she was shivering in Shi Chen's arms.
"No, do you want me to freeze alone?" Shi Chen resolutely refused.
"I...I'm freezing to death..." Frillie's voice was so weak it was almost inaudible.
"No, we'll keep each other warm and we'll definitely get out of this snowy area."
"Where's your spatial magic? Can't you just leave?"
"This is also my first time in this world. Spatial magic can only move me to places I've been before."
"I shouldn't have come with you..."
"Don't say that~ Wearing short sleeves in the snow is a rare and precious experience."
"I'd rather lie in bed... Wait, where's your golden flame? Doesn't it keep you warm?"
"Ah! I almost forgot."
"You didn't do this on purpose, did you?"
"Hahaha~ How is that possible?"
The time summoned the sacred fire, enveloping the two of them. In an instant, the cold was cut off, and warmth enveloped their entire bodies.
"So warm..." Frillie stretched out in Shichen's arms, a contented expression on her face.
"Yes." Shi Chen lifted Frilian up and rubbed his face against her soft cheek.
"Ugh...no...!" Frillie raised her hand and pushed his face away.
"Sigh, this is so heartbreaking." Shi Chen sighed, but didn't continue.
"You're not satisfied with just mooching off her every day... Where are we going?" Frilian asked, looking at the snow-white figure before her.
"Find a castle."
"Hmm?" Frilian looked up at him in confusion.
Shi Chen lowered his eyes, looking at her delicate face, and kissed her. "We need to find a place to stay first, right?"
"You kissed me again..."

Frillie pouted and continued, "How did you know there was a castle nearby?"
"Who told me to be so wise and powerful?"
"Narcissism...: Didn't you just say that this is your first time in this world too?"
"Even though this is my first time here, it doesn't mean I don't know you. Have you forgotten how we first met?"
"You called me by my name right away..."
"You remember it so clearly? Then why didn't you ever ask me why?"
There's no need to ask.
"You're not even curious about me? Looks like I'll have to teach you a lesson tonight."
"A lesson? You're not going to treat me like you treated Celie, are you?" Frilian asked fearfully, clutching Shichen's collar tightly.
She still can't forget the scene of Celia being bullied by Shichen, like a doll being manipulated by him in various ways.
She was either being held face-up in his arms, or with her back to him, or even lying down like a little animal...
It's scary to think about it.
A month has passed, but she still remembers it vividly.
"Oh? You want to be taught a lesson like that?" Shi Chen looked at her with a wicked grin.
"No way! I'd rather get spanked."
"Is that so? Then it's decided."
"you.....
"
"We've arrived," Shichen suddenly said.
"?"
Frillie turned her head and followed the timeline, passing through the snow-covered forest, and saw a white castle.
Even from just a glimpse, one can feel the grandeur and magnificence of the castle, and even sense a mysterious power.
"There really is a castle."
"Would I lie to you?" Shi Chen quickened his pace and walked towards the castle.
In this icy, snowy region, there is only this castle and no other buildings. In other words, this area belongs to the owner of this castle.
Shichen was very familiar with the people in the castle, but it was hard to say whether they could be considered human; to be precise, they should be considered artificial life forms.
Since the world he is in now is the world of Fate, the castle in the snow and ice can only belong to the Einzbern family.
She did not reveal the specifics of this world, and it is currently uncertain whether the time is before or after that decade.
He hoped to be first, so that he would still have a chance to save that poor girl.
Every time he comes to a new world, he gets very close to the fragments of divinity, which is why he comes directly to the Einzbern family.
Moreover, he was not afraid of the Einzbern family; the magicians of this world could not harm him at all.
Not to mention that one of the perks of coming into this world is immunity to magic.
He desperately needs to know the timeline right now, this isn't the time to be polite.
Upon arriving at the city wall, Shi Chen didn't intend to go through the main gate; instead, he carried Frilian and jumped onto the wall.
Everything in sight is luxurious.
Compared to the icy wilderness outside, the castle is full of life, with not only pools but also gardens—it's like two different worlds.
"Aren't we going through the main entrance?" Frillie asked.
"You can't get in through the main gate." Shi Chen picked her up and jumped into the castle.
"Who is it?"
As soon as he landed, Shichen was surrounded by two servants holding brooms.
But they didn't resemble servants at all. They only showed delicate, doll-like faces, with skin as clean as white porcelain, tall figures, and gorgeous clothes, making them more like noble servants.
His expression was noticeably stiff.
"We're done for, we've been found out," Frilian said calmly.
"It's alright, don't worry." Shi Chen smiled.
"They are so beautiful."
"I think so too."
Only by seeing it with your own eyes can you understand the exquisite nature of artificial life forms; their faces are meticulously sculpted and they are simply perfect.
"You have feelings for them?" Frilian asked.
"How could that be...? I don't fall in love with every girl I meet." Shi Chen rolled his eyes at her.
"Really? Is it because they're not lolis?"
Looks like I'll have to be a bit harsher tonight; I'll make sure you can't walk properly tomorrow.
"No!" Frillie cried out in fright, covering her bottom.
"Hmph~"
"Who exactly are you people?" one of the women asked in a cold voice.
"Sera, that little girl has pointy ears, just like an elf," another woman lazily reminded her.
"Liz, shut up! Be serious," the woman named Sera snapped.
"Yes."
"Speak quickly, who are you two? Why are you trespassing on the Einzbern residence?"
"Sorry, you might not believe it, but we just happened to end up here by accident, and that's how we found this place," Shichen explained.
"Mmm." Frilian nodded in his arms.
"Do you think we believe that?" Sera retorted.
"That's true..."
"Time? What should we do? Should we run away?" Frillian asked.
"We're not bad people, why should we run away?"
"oh."
"That handsome man said they weren't bad people," said the woman named Liz.
"Shut up! Why should you believe what he says? What if he's here to harm Ilya? What if he's a magician with ulterior motives?"
"oh."
"Sera, you just mentioned Ilya, right?" Shichen asked quickly.
"What do you want to do?"
Sera frowned, staring at him warily: "Also, you're not allowed to call me by my name."
"That's not important. What I want to know is, how old is Ilya now?"
"How could I possibly tell you!"
"Naris, can you tell me?" Shichen asked the seemingly easy-going Naris.
"Me?" Liz asked, pointing to herself in surprise.
"Yes, please." Shi Chen clasped his hands together and asked.
"What should we do, Sera?"
"What do you think?" Sera looked at her expressionlessly.
"Okay... It doesn't seem like it will work, but this person is very friendly, and he has the same aura as Ilya."
Could it be the father that Ilya has been talking about?
This is also why the two of them haven't attacked Shichen.
"How could that be! It just won't work!" Sera said sternly.
"Oh... I'm sorry, I can't answer you."
"Alright then." Shi Chen nodded.
"What exactly are you here for?" Sera asked again.
"Could you go and inform the owner of this place? We'll wait here," Shichen asked.
"No, who knows if you'll harm the family head? Leave immediately!"
"Throat, it seems the only option is to not..."
"Sera, Liss, what are you doing?"
Just as Shichen was about to force his way in, a childlike and lively voice came over.
Shi Chen quickly looked toward the source of the sound and saw a beautiful little girl running over. She was wearing a thick purple and white fleece jacket and a hat, and her long white hair was draped down her back, making her look like a snow fairy.
"Huh?"
The little girl's eyes met Shichen's, and she froze, then a look of joy appeared on her face.
"dad!"
