February in Biflten is always a bit warmer, Aden remarked as he pulled the cotton blanket up to his brides shoulders. He was worried about her, knowing that the weather here wouldnt be as warm as where she was from.

Ilyns mind was preoccupied with the recent foresight with the Yesters heading towards the Terrys, and the fact that Milton was also involved. She clenched her hand tightly, contemplating the situation.

Theyll probably meet in February, hiding by the winter regions far border before then. There will be many more places for them to go even if its not north, Aden muttered. The problem was that the weather was quite warm now, and the Yesters movements slowed down significantly as they entered February. It would be then that they would contact Mille, revealing themselves in the process.

Ilyn knew that if she hadnt been privy to this information, if without the foresight, Aden may have stumbled upon the Terrys while trying to catch the Yesters. Aden brushed her cheek, interrupting his thoughts.

The Terrys are well known for their hard black scales. They melt in flames, but theyre immune to other weapons, Aden said, thinking of Delroses everlasting fire.

Ilyn nodded, contemplating the use of Delroses fire in their defense. Aden continued, There are many places around the mansion that are lit up, so they dont face humans easily. I think the Yesters knew that fact, which is why they went to the Terrys.

The Terrys were also monsters of the winter region, and they too were impacted by the changing weather in February. They would do their best to hide in their territory as the weather warmed up.

I think this February will be the warmest February in history, he said, the weight of the situation heavy on his mind. It might be the same as the warm region. Aden kissed his lovely bride on the forehead.

Could it be because April was warmer? Ilyn asked.

Perhaps, Aden said, thinking back to the mild weather they had experienced in April. It could be due to his divine powers, or the succession. Ever since the succession had taken place, the weather had become significantly warmer. Aden buried his face in her shoulder, And because such a warm person like you is in the mansion.

Ilyn giggled as she felt ticklish by his breath. He became more forward, climbing on top of her as the night grew late.

That night, Aden received a report from Idith. The North are increasingly suggesting that we should get rid of the Yesters, Idith said.

In the winter region, during the coldest time in April, the Yesters become the strongest. But this April was different. They had lost most of their army and territory and were now on the run.

Within the mansion, the Blue North were particularly vocal in their call to get rid of the Yesters once and for all. They are the ones threatening Biflten every April. Its time to get rid of them once and for all!

It wasnt Lidan, the senior of the North, who was trying to persuade people. He appeared to be trying to calm the North, but he didnt seem to be putting much effort into it. In the end, he too wanted the Yesters gone.

But not using the Norths army, but Delroses. This meant that Aden had no reason to ignore Delroses one-way sacrifice anymore. There were still three years left until the succession, and Aden wasnt planning on waiting that long. He didnt need a sword with other thoughts. He wasnt just planning on pushing the monsters out of the winter region; he was no longer going to allow the other three houses that threatened Delrose.

Above all, he wanted to gift a safe summer to Ilyn. We were paying attention to the Norths movement, but as long as Lidan isnt the one participating, there is a chance that he will back out, saying hes not representing the Norths situation, Idith said.

Aden nodded, thinking the same. That was why he wasnt reacting to the Norths claim. Lidan was a cunning one who would give up something small for something big. Well suggest it if it does get rowdy, Aden said, laughing.

That defense line will be longer, so well need the Norths army as well, he added, thinking about the people who were so concerned about their power that they wouldnt send their knights to a place where they could be attacked. Aden was sick of these people.

Ill relay that, Idith said, bowing. And the direct line of Elo will be visiting in February when its completely warm. Were adjusting the schedule.

Right, you said hes weak, Aden said, thinking about the weak Elo senior. The problem was the secret stronghold and the relationship with the new Elo senior. It wasnt like the senior who was kicked out was planning on handing down Elo to his weak son. Aden squinted, trying to understand.
