I know I have seen that woman encased inside the ice before, she is no doubt the one that always appears in my dreams. For so unknown reason, I always seed to not rember what my dreams are all about these past few days but it seems like it has sothing to do with her.
There was no info about the location but I think I can try to check where it was by looking at the photo and try to recognize where it was taken. If she was the one who keep appearing in my dreams, there must be sothing wrong here since a ga character shouldn't be capable of intruding into people's dreams like they were so kind of entity that is capable of breaking the fourth wall.
However, upon closer inspection, I realized that I can't even recognize the place.
"Is this place a place I haven't visited before? Perhaps it was a newly discovered place but it seems to be located in a forest with all those trees. I don't think I can recognize the trees though."
I tried to think a little bit more and see whether I can still locate it by sheer guessing alone but I doubt it and I don't think I will guess it. My head hurts just thinking about it that I decided to call it a day and sleep. I should worry about that later.

The next day, I returned to the ga, and this ti around, my parents and Chase are already back into the ga and they are now just waiting for further commands. They decided to grind for a bit in the nearby area where so monsters spawn to at least get a bit more experience.
I didn't join them in the grind and instead went to the two queens to show them the Carnwennan. However, the soldiers barred my entry as they are still preparing and I can only et with them once they are done. I sighed when that happened but that is all I can do. I can't force myself to enter since it's not mandatory and instead went to Almira.
When I reached her tent, she is already packing up her things as she cleaned up all the stuff that she owned and used for smithing. Looks like she no longer needs need to do her smithing job now that all the materials that she needed to turn into weapons and armor are gone to ashes.
"Master, are you already packing up your stuff? Is everything done?"
"Ah? Oh, it's just you, boy. Yeah, there is no point with my stuff scattered here. My job is over the mont that huge chunk of the turtle is gone but I already fulfilled the bargain so there is no need to keep on doing that."
She then grabs a big item that looks like a weapon to but I don't know what it looks like since it was covered in cloth. She then put it behind her back and despite the size, Almira seems to not care about the weight as she just lugged it out like nothing.
"What is that, Master?"
"This? This is the weapon that I designed to kill an immortal. Although the Carnwennan that was restored also has the sa abilities, two is better than one, right?"
"Yeah, it won't hurt to have more than one weapon at all. Can I know what kind of weapon was it?"
"Not now. You don't need to see it for now just yet."
If Almira didn't want to see it, there must be so reason why she didn't want to see it so whatever it was, I don't want to pry and I am not a busybody to care about it either. If she didn't want to see, then that is all about all I can do about it.
I helped Almira clean up until we heard a loud horn which seems to signify the beginning of the raid
"Shall we go, my apprentice?" she pulled out a cigarette and started puffing once more.
"Sure... but please move the cigar away from , I don't like the smoke entering my nose."
"You sure are sensitive, young man. Oh well."
We joined the others after we went outside the tent. The soldiers are now ready and are equipped with new armor and all of them are wielding weapons that are clearly made from the Mist Turtle of the Damned just by the looks of it and I must say that despite a mass-produced weapon, they do look badass and if sold in the auction, it would even fetch a big price. It's not a joke to get a weapon forged from the materials of a slain behemoth. If I have a normal weapon in my arsenal, I would also like to have one myself but I don't need it right now.
"Looks like everyone is here." Queen Tanya is looking smug with her battle outfit alone. She imposingly stood there in front of the soldiers beside Queen Tori.
"From here on out, the danger will appear from all sides as we go deeper into the underground to retrieve the artifacts. However, we will be giving a final warning. This expedition would be really dangerous and I don't think we will get out of here without any losses. Still, this is for the sake that the monsters will not use the artifacts of King Arthur and use them for their own! Are you willing to give up your life for the sake of the future of our kingdom and for the safety of the citizens?"
"MA'AM, YES MA'AM!"
Queen Tanya grinned when she heard the screams of her soldiers that ca from the top of their lungs.
"GOOD! Alright, n and won! Let's go!"
The soldiers scream in unison, raising the morale of everyone around.
"Damn, this is a large-scale battle and even though we are not fighting against the humans, this is quite a grand scale of battle huh?" my father was amazed.
"Yeah. It's not even comparable to the previous gas on the computer that we knew. This is quite good to join up a battle and feel like a real soldier in a battle!" even my mother is quite enthusiastic.
Now that we are about to reach the conclusion of this quest, there is only one thing that boggles my mind, what waits for us down there? Will the stares that I have felt before can be felt again once we go and descend?
