"Who?!"
The Snow Maiden's spiritual power was fully immersed in the distant battlefield situation, so she did not notice anyone sneaking into the ice cave.
It wasn't until Aster Grant was about to reach the bottom of the cave that she suddenly realized—
There was actually an outsider approaching!
Keep in mind, at this moment, the guardians of the Snow Kingdom had been sent to the frontlines, leaving her at her most vulnerable.
Even though she was of Totem Level, the Snow Maiden race...
Was almost entirely lacking in combat ability!
If one were to measure combat ability on a scale of 100:
The Angel Race and Ghost Race could be considered top-tier, with combat strength reaching above 90 points;
The Azurefox Clan could exert about 40 points of strength;
And the Snow Maiden race...
Might not even reach 10 points.
Alone at the moment, she might not be able to handle even a slightly stronger Monarch Level, let alone a Totem Level foe.
