The Torringgar Mountain Range were the biggest chain of mountains in the Bluecorn State where Elffire City was the state capital.

The nearest mountain was called Musdurn and it was around 150 km away from Elffire City. This specific mountain could be called one of the smallest among all the mountains in the mountain range. But the Musdurn Mountain still was over 2 thousand meters high. It was a highly sought place among the people who lived near it. Especially the people who lived in Elffire City.

If anyone from Elffire City wanted to make a trip to the mountains, they would always choose to go to the Musdurn Mountain.

Several reasons made the place attractive for tourists. Like the famous and upbeat town located at the foot of the mountain. The town was famous for its peculiar architecture and its scenic look. Plus, the town had all the services that a big could have.

Another thing was that the Musdurn Mountain geography was highly suitable for winter sports like skiing and snowboarding. That's why the government built all kinds of facilities on the mountain to facilitate the practice of these sports. Consequently, these facilities attracted even more tourists.

After decades of operation, Musdurn was famous nationwide for its scenic views and winter sports.

That's why Theo and the others didn't even hesitate in choosing this place to be their destination on their impromptu trip to the mountains. After all, Musdurn was the best place to go in all of Bluecorn State if one wanted to visit the mountains.

Theo and the others soon entered the highway road that would take them to Musdurn. If the skies were clear, they would be able to see the mountain from far away, but because the skies were loaded with dark clouds, they could only see a hazy silhouette on the horizon.

They didn't face any traffic on their way, so one and a half hours later they were almost there already. They could see the Musdurn Mountain towering above them as they entered beautiful Musdurn Town.

The convoy of cars passed straight through the town before finally getting onto the road that climbed the mountain.

They wouldn't stay in the town, but instead in a house located at the mountainside. Because they were in a hurry to arrive at the house, they didn't even stop at the town to visit its scenic places.

They drove through the mountainside road that climbed the mountain and here and there they were able to see all kinds of mountain cabins and mansions.

Because of its popularity, Musdurn was also an attractive destination for rich people who liked to skiing. That's why all kinds of multimillion-dollar mansions were located around Musdurn.

After climbing the mountain for a while, they were finally able to arrive at a mansion that had a characteristic Yamatese architectural style.

The convoy soon entered the property and arrived at the front of the big manor.

After parking their cars, they soon exited their own cars and looked around.

"Wow!"

"This place looks so fancy!"

"Your family is so rich, Ayia!"

"..."

Everyone started talking loudly to each other as they admired the house.

And that's right!

This manor was one of many mansions of the Yamada Family around the Sakura Abode Country.

When everyone decided to go to Musdurn Mountain, Ayia immediately offered this house to accommodate everyone during their travel.

She knew that the manor was empty, so they would be able to use it without any problems. Plus, everyone already knew that her family was rich, so it was only normal that her family owned a winter manor.

They were concentrated on admiring the place as they excitedly discussed everything that they didn't even notice a person who supposedly shouldn't be there exiting the car as well.

The purple-haired girl quietly mixed among everyone before loudly exclaiming, "You are so awesome, Ayia, Shizuka! You are like super rich!"

At first, Ayia didn't register the voice and just instinctively replied, "I'm not rich, my family is. And..."

It was only then that she noticed something odd about the voice. She looked at the place where the voice had come from and saw someone that shocked her.

Yamada Kaori was there looking at her with a teasing smile.

Ayia was left dumbfounded to see her sister, who supposedly was super busy working, arrive quietly together with everyone.

"Ka-chan!" Ayia loudly exclaimed before running to hug her sister.

It was only then that everyone noticed Kaori there. All of them were taken by surprise as Ayia had said that Kaori couldn't come as she had work to do at Sakura City. But their surprise soon passed as they became happy that their friend was able to come.

"Kaori!"

"That's awesome! This way the whole gang is reunited once again!"

"I'm so excited!"

|| ||

Everyone greeted Kaori happily.

Soon after, they finally started moving their bags out of the cars. As the manor was big enough, everyone had where to sleep even though almost 20 people would sleep there.

As they were moving their things, they were able to meet the person who maintained the manor. Shizuka and Kaori talked with him as they explained what would happen this weekend. "...that's like that we'll leave tomorrow afternoon, Maito-san." Shizuka explained their plans for the weekend.

As a local who lived in the Musdurn Mountains, Maito was an old man who served the Yamada Family his whole life. In his old days, he still was able to maintain such big property just by himself. The family had offered a lighter job for him, but he flatly denied it. He even strongly denied retiring from his service. After being raised by the family, his only wish in his old days was to keep being useful to the family. Without any choice, the family could only accept his wishes. Plus, Maito had already lived a long life where he had a bunch of sons, daughters, and

Grandkids.

That's why Shizuka and Kaori were respectful to this old man who dedicated his whole life to the family.

"Little miss, Kaori-sama, the whole house is cleaned and it can house you and your friends. I filled the pantry with all kinds of ingredients if you decide to cook. I can also cook meals for you and your friends if you order me to. I also replenish the house with firewood if you decide to light up the fireplace. Also..." Maito-san gave his report about the conditions of the manor.

Koari and Shizuka spent around 10 minutes talking with Maito-san before telling him to go back to his house. If it was up to him, he would be there 24/7 serving them. But Kaori and Shizuka couldn't let themselves do that with this old man. It was only after giving all kinds pieces of advice and warnings that the old man left the house in his old classic car.

He lived in a house in Musdurn Town with his wife.

After seeing the old man away, the girls were finally able to get their things into their own

Rooms.

Just like that, everyone arrived at Musdurn for their winter mountain adventure!
