Chapter 1157 Never Give Up!

Harvestasya's encounter with the Ice Spirit took an unexpected turn as the ethereal creature posed a question that resonated in the icy chamber.

"Do you want to bring harm to me and my home?" the Ice Spirit asked.?The diminutive being, with its crystalline features and innocent demeanor, hovered before Harvestasya, awaiting her response.

The air in the cavern seemed to hold its breath, and Harvestasya felt a mixture of surprise and relief at the Ice Spirit's non-confrontational inquiry. The question lingered in the frosty atmosphere, and Harvestasya, adjusting to the unforeseen twist in their interaction, replied with sincerity. n-/o/-v/)e.-l-(b-)I--n

"No... I don't want to bring harm to you or your home," she answered, her voice resonating in the crystalline cavern. Harvestasya's eyes softened with the assurance of her words, and a gentle smile graced her features. The Ice Spirit, seemingly content with her response, emitted a subtle glow that mirrored a sense of understanding.

As the seconds passed, the tension that initially clung to the cavern dissipated, replaced by an air of mutual respect. The ice crystals on the walls glimmered, catching the reflection of the Ice Spirit's radiance, creating a kaleidoscope of frozen hues. It was a surreal moment—a truce between two beings, each tied to different realms yet finding a shared understanding within the confines of the frost-kissed sanctuary.

The Ice Spirit, despite its petite stature, emanated an otherworldly presence, as if it held the secrets of the icy realm within its delicate form. Harvestasya, her curiosity piqued, found herself drawn to the enchanting aura that surrounded her unexpected companion.

The cavernous walls echoed softly as Harvestasya's words hung in the frigid air. The Ice Spirit, with its innocent eyes gleaming like frozen sapphires, seemed to assess the sincerity behind her response. The ethereal ambiance intensified as a silent exchange unfolded between them, bridging the gap between different worlds.

"I sense the truth in your words," chimed the Ice Spirit, its voice resembling the delicate tinkling of ice crystals. "Why have you ventured into my domain, curious one?"

Harvestasya unveiled, "I am curious what is the center of this cave."

In the heart of the ice cavern, Harvestasya's words hung in the air, revealing her audacious curiosity about the central enigma that concealed itself within the frost-kissed sanctuary. The Ice Spirit, with its crystalline brilliance, regarded her with a mixture of surprise and wariness. The delicate echoes of their conversation reverberated through the icy walls, carrying an air of both intrigue and caution.

Harvestasya, her feline ears twitching with anticipation, awaited the Ice Spirit's response. The ethereal glow emanating from the spirit flickered slightly as it considered the implications of her daring quest. The cavern, though serene, seemed to hold its breath, as if the very ice itself were attuned to the unfolding dialogue.

"The center of this cave?" echoed the Ice Spirit, its voice a gentle cascade of melodic notes. "That's a very daring quest, curious one. You don't have black wings, yet you ventured to this side of Purgatory. Odd... you are not welcome here, leave."

"Just a little peek?" Harvestasya implored, her voice carrying the weight of insatiable curiosity. Her pouting expression mirrored a child denied a coveted treat, yet her determination remained unyielding.

Harvestasya's plea echoed through the crystalline chamber, her hands pressed together in a supplicating gesture, and her eyes widening in a plea for a glimpse into the secrets concealed within the cavern's heart. The soft luminescence of her eyes reflected the desperate desire to unravel the mysteries that lay beyond.

The Ice Spirit, its form shimmering with glacial radiance, held steadfast against the plea. Its response was firm, a resolute denial of the elven seeker's entreaties. "No," declared the ice spirit, its tone unwavering. "No matter what, the answer will be, no."

Harvestasya's features shifted from hopeful anticipation to a hint of frustration, a subtle pout playing on her lips. "No way! You just said that I bore no harm," she retorted, the sense of injustice evident in her voice.

"It's not about your intent," explained the ice spirit, its ethereal presence filling the cavern. The resonance of its words carried a weight of ancient wisdom. "No kind nor evil being shall enter the center of the cave," it proclaimed, the words resonating with an unwavering determination to uphold the sanctity of the concealed realm.

The delicate dance between seeker and guardian continued, the enigmatic center of the cave standing as a testament to the unyielding boundaries that safeguarded its mysteries. The cavern walls, adorned with intricate frost patterns, witnessed this interplay between the elven adventurer's relentless curiosity and the timeless resolve of the guardian spirit. The frozen air itself seemed to hold its breath as if the very essence of the icy sanctuary awaited the resolution of this ephemeral clash between mortal audacity and ethereal guardianship.

The exchange between Harvestasya and the Ice Spirit unfolded in a surprising twist, leaving both parties momentarily perplexed. Harvestasya's abrupt surrender, marked by a resigned "Fine, fine, I give up," caught the Ice Spirit off guard, prompting a bemused reaction.

"Hm?" the Ice Spirit expressed its astonishment. "You give up?"

The elven adventurer, confused by the Ice Spirit's response, sought clarification. "What? What do you mean?"

"I thought that you would try a little harder," the Ice Spirit remarked, its ethereal form adopting an almost nonchalant shrug. The unexpected turn of events left Harvestasya grappling with a mix of confusion and disbelief.

"Are you kidding me?" she exclaimed incredulously, attempting to convey her frustration. "Does that mean I can go if I haggled still?"

The Ice Spirit, maintaining its composed demeanor, swiftly dispelled any notion of leniency. "No," it asserted, reinforcing the inviolable decree that guarded the sanctity of the cave's innermost chamber.

"Oh, you little!" Harvestasya, fueled by her playful defiance, attempted to reach out and touch the Ice Spirit. Yet, as her finger extended, the biting cold of the spirit's essence manifested, and she recoiled with a yelp. "Ah!"

"No, no touchy," the Ice Spirit declared with an air of finality, its essence untouched by the elven adventurer's attempt to breach the established boundaries.

Harvestasya, confronted with the Ice Spirit's refusal and enigmatic response, couldn't help but display her irritation. She furrowed her brows, the unspoken desire to explore the cave's innermost sanctum evident in her gaze. However, a moment of introspection led her to release a resigned sigh, and she nonchalantly shrugged her shoulders, acknowledging the Ice Spirit's authority.

"It's your right," she conceded, a touch of disappointment lingering in her voice.

The Ice Spirit, stoic and unwavering, responded with a simple acknowledgment. "It is."

Respecting the guardian's decision, Harvestasya shifted the focus of their conversation, her curiosity unabated. "Though, can I ask, what it is?"

The Ice Spirit, maintaining a degree of secrecy, dismissed her inquiry with a firm stance. "None of your business, as long as Niffleheim is still around, this place is forbidden to enter."

"Niffleheim..." Harvestasya muttered the name, contemplating its significance. "Is something there also coveted by Niffleheim?"

The Ice Spirit, not keen on divulging further details, cautioned Harvestasya. "I wouldn't use that word..." An air of mystery lingered in its response, leaving the elven adventurer to ponder the unspoken complexities that shrouded the cave's secrets.

"Now please leave," the Ice Spirit declared, its patience wearing thin. "Or I will shove you with an ice pillar out." The threat, delivered with an underlying seriousness, left no room for negotiation. Harvestasya, recognizing the limits set by the guardian, reluctantly began her departure from the icy realm, leaving the secrets of the cave's heart veiled in an enigma.

"Niffleheim..." she muttered, the name resonating with echoes of her master's past suffering and eventual demise. A surge of emotions welled within her, and she clenched her fists, her resolve solidifying. "One of the places that was responsible for my teacher's death and misery..."

Harvestasya, standing at the edge of the Ice Spirit's domain, directed her gaze toward the distant palace of Niffleheim, its ominous presence palpable amidst the icy landscape. The fortress, veiled in perpetual snow, emitted an aura of dread, with dark wings sporadically traversing between towering structures. As her eyes fixated on the foreboding stronghold, a resolute determination flickered in Harvestasya's expression.

With an unwavering determination, she affirmed her commitment to the cause. "Whatever it is in that cave, I will not let Niffleheim have it!"

The bitter memories of loss and the desire to protect her master's legacy fueled Harvestasya's unwavering resolve. Determined to defy the forces that had wrought pain upon Lyon Torga, she embarked on a new mission—one that intertwined with the mysterious secrets guarded by the Ice Spirit within the heart of the icy cave.

Harvestasya, fueled by her teacher's teachings and an indomitable spirit, pivoted with a smirk on her lips. "My teacher taught me to never give up," she declared with unwavering determination. With a resounding war cry, she surged forward, venturing deeper into the cave.

Unbeknownst to her, beneath the frozen walls lay the remnants of unfortunate cultivators, their once-majestic dark wings now stilled in a cold, eternal embrace. The cavern, a silent witness to the tragedy that had befallen those who dared to challenge the Ice Spirit's decree, held secrets veiled in layers of frost and sorrow.
