Editing Amaryllis in the Ice Country:Chapter 5 (section)

===Part 2===

“Nice butt today!”

“Kyaaa!”

I frantically turn around, as I have been molested on the butt. Grinning away is the flirt.

“Can’t you be a little more decent in how you greet others?”

“So, I should rub your breasts?”

“You Assbahn!!”

Eisbahn takes a kick from me, “Ow, it hurts!” And jumps up high.

“If you’re going to keep this up, I’m going to ask Viscaria to do an operation on you.”

“Well, those are some bold words from a virgin.”

“I’m serious.”

“Scary, scary.”

Haa, I sigh. This is the only guy not worried at all, even when the village’s ravaged with earthquakes and frostbites.

“If you’re still a Senator, please show some care for the future of the villager.”

“But I do think of a lot of things.”

“Stop lying.”

I slap away his sticky hand that’s reaching for my chest, and walk away, “Wait, don’t be angry now~” he’s still pestering me.

“Where are you going?”

“Nothing to do with you.”

“The Village Council again, right?”

“Yeah, any suggestions?”

“Can’t you contact through the wireless.”

“I haven’t been able to contact the Chief through the wireless, so I’m going straight to him to talk. Discuss about the frostbites and the countermeasures.”

“You’re serious.”

“You’re the one who isn’t serious.”

I try to shake Eisbahn off, and storm forward, and he continues to follow me like goldfish poop. I have been cold to him, and not cute at all, but why is this guy pestering me all the time?

Huffing my shoulders in rage, I storm forward, and at this moment.

—!



Boom, the earth shakes.



It’s a tremendous tremor. There have been little quakes over the past month, but such a scale is really abnormal. It just feels like the entire earth bounces up to strike me, as I lose my balance and collapse. Eisbahn next to me is flailing around too.

This tremor lasts for a long time. The earth shakes side to side over this duration that lasts more than a minute, and several icicles, dozens of them, fall from the ceiling. We try to hide in some houses, but can’t stand up right, and can only remain where we are until the shaking stops.

And then.

—Is it…over?

I tentatively lift my face off the ground, and the ice fragments shatter, falling off my face. “Ugh…” Eisbahn too lifts his face.

“I thought I was going to die…”

“…M-me too.”

Still rattle, we hold hands and stand up, surveying the surroundings. There are numerous ice blocks of various sizes scattered around, with the walls of a few collapses houses appearing in our eyes. There’s no doubt this is a severe situation.

“Emergency contact…!”

I open all communication channels, shouting,

“This is Vice Chief Amaryllis! Notifying all blocks! Report on the situation immediately! I repeat, report on the situation immediately…!”

And in the meantime, my Mind Circuits receive the reports from all over the village.

<strong>“This is Left Wing B! We have lots of people trapped under collapsed houses! Requesting for immediate aid!” </strong>

<strong> “Right Foot D! Four are critically injured, we’re lacking in parts!” </strong>

<strong>”E6 of the Body! We got kids buried alive! Hurry, save them!” </strong>

The injury reports come in shrieks, and in an instant, there are more than fifty injured. I immediately give the instruction,

“To all Blocks! Refer to Manual 7, 3C! Parts warehouse and supplies shall be released for all! Prioritize those with damaged Mind Circuits! After that, send all the injury reports to the Village Council Hall! Understood1?”

I give the commands, “Chief!” and switch the channel.

“You hear me!? It’s Vice Chief Amaryllis! Chief! Chief…!”

I desperately call for the Chief through the emergency circuit. There is no answer.

—Seriously? At this moment…!

“Accessing Council data with Vice Chief’s permissions! Birdmap!”

And so, a large map appears before my eyes immediately. This is the holographic image only I can see, aired in my Mind Circuit.

—Ah!

Looking at it, there are red lights flashing at the path leading to the Snow White.

—Not good!

“Viscaria! Götz! You two alright…!?”

I call for the other Senators through the wireless. <strong> “I’m fine.” “So am I!”</strong> I quickly get my response.

“We’ll head to the Snow White to have a look! We’ll leave the saving to you two!”

<strong>”Got it!” “Fine with us! </strong>

As both of them reply in unison,

“Let’s go, Eisbahn!”

“Right!”

We race off with all our might.
