Positive little sun, magical girl, I am awesome

In a vast expanse of white snow, with the biting cold wind howling, a pregnant woman fell in the thick snow, her face as pale as paper.

Her hair was covered with snow that had accumulated when she fell to the ground. Her eyebrows and eyelashes were frozen white. Every breath she took was accompanied by a painful tremor. The hot air she exhaled instantly condensed into mist in the air. Her body gradually lost consciousness and her consciousness began to blur. However, her instinct for survival and her strong desire to protect the child in her belly made her still struggle with all her might, making intermittent, weak cries for help.

"God... please save your people..." The pain in her lower abdomen made her feel ominous. She looked up at the sky in the woods. There was only a crow silently watching her, as if waiting for her death. The woman shed tears silently.

This was the scene that everyone saw when they came following the sound.

Catherine was walking in the front. She was the first to step over the black dead wood on the ground and waded through the thick snow to run towards the woman.

"Are you okay, ma'am--" She stopped abruptly. When she got closer, she saw that the blood between the woman's legs had seeped through her thick winter clothes, dyeing the snow red and black, and the ground was a mess of dirt.

“Ah—ah—!” However, when the woman saw her, she screamed in fear instead of asking for help. In such a snowy place, a strange girl suddenly appeared in the forest. Her unusual eye and hair color, as well as her amazing beauty, made her hair stand on end. She struggled and could not move, so she could only shout, “Witch, go away! Go away!”

——Catherine was stunned on the spot.

"Ah, what is she doing--" The others finally arrived, and Sean was shocked at what he saw.

When the woman saw that there were both men and women in the group, she finally calmed down. The fear in her eyes disappeared. She grabbed Ian, who came to her and squatted beside her to help her up, and asked him for help, "Save me, please save me."

Ian was held tightly by the woman. After hesitating for a moment, he held her hand back in a soothing manner. "It's okay, ma'am. The God of Light will bless you." The boy's deep and firm voice was reassuring.

After hearing this, the woman's expression finally relaxed completely. She had really waited for rescue.

"Idiot Sean, don't use healing magic, she's about to give birth!" Lulu ran over and quickly interrupted Sean who was trying to use healing magic.

"Then, what should we do..." Sean stammered.

"It looks like her water has broken. She can't hold on any longer. We'll have to send her back to town." Lilith walked forward, looked at the mud between the woman's legs, took a deep breath and tried to stay calm. In fact, she was also very panicked inside. It was the first time she had seen such a scene, and the risks of childbirth for women in this era were very high.

"It seems so." Jaina squatted down, looked at the defeated lady, and decisively began to untie her robe. "Has any of you ever delivered a baby?"

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. For their age, such knowledge was really too advanced.

"I, I have helped deliver calves and lambs." Lulu gritted her teeth and stood up.

"Then Lulu, you come and help. Lilith, do you have cooking utensils? We need to boil water. Sean, you light a fire nearby, she is very cold, and the others go collect firewood." Perhaps because Jaina had done more work since she was a child, she became the calmest one at this time. The woman's clothes could not be untied due to the frozen amniotic fluid and blood, so she decisively took a knife and cut them open, and did not forget to calmly command everyone.

"Okay, okay." Fortunately, this time, Lilith threw all the messy and unused things in the ring into the workshop warehouse for the expedition. The ring was filled with various supplies needed for the expedition. When she took out the big iron pot, she even took out a cup of steaming ginger and brown sugar water from the ring and coaxed the doubtful woman to drink it.

After she turned around and picked up the iron pot to dig snow to boil water, Catherine hesitated for a moment and walked towards the crowd.

"Ms. Catherine!" Daniel hurried forward and raised his hand to stop her. The rusty smell of blood and the strange fishy smell were particularly obvious in such a cold and clean snowy forest. Even though Daniel was standing far away, he couldn't help but frown. Seeing Catherine trying to step forward, he subconsciously stopped her. "You are of noble status, there is no need to set foot in such a dirty place, just leave it to them..."

"What's so dirty?" Catherine turned her head, her face, which always maintained a polite smile, turned cold, and her eyes were as sharp as a knife.

"That's right, that's right..." Daniel glanced over there and accidentally saw the woman's exposed thighs. He quickly turned his head away in embarrassment.

"Is it embarrassing for you to see such a scene, Daniel?" Catherine was usually very polite to him. This was the first time she spoke to him in such a sarcastic tone. Daniel's heart sank and he wanted to explain, but Catherine did not give him a chance.

"That's where you and I were born, Daniel. I don't think there's anything dirty about it." Catherine's face was as cold as the light snow that was swaying between the treetops. "I was born in the river under my mother's crotch."

This sentence was like a heavy blow, which made Daniel speechless for a long time. Most of the people he interacted with were noble ladies, and the rudest were just the maids who did rough work at home, and Lilith who wielded a sword all day long. He didn't expect that the princess who had always been chaste would suddenly say such rude and primitive words.

However, Catherine was no longer willing to pay attention to him. She took out a thick fur cloak from the bracelet Freya gave her, ran over and spread it on the ground, motioning Ian to carry the person on it to isolate the pregnant woman from the cold snow under her, not caring at all that the precious fur would get dirty.

Lilith was trying hard to dig out clean snow in the distance. Because she didn't know how much she would need, she tried her best to fill the entire pot. This cast iron pot was made of very real materials. Lilith bought it for the whole team to use, so the mouth of the pot was particularly large. It was very heavy even without putting anything in it. Now that it was filled with snow, even though Lilith had been tying sandbags to train her physical strength all day, she could hardly lift it. She looked behind her and saw Hannah who was standing closest to her.

"Hannah, come and help me. I can't carry it." Lilith called to Hannah.

Hannah seemed to be in a daze, and when she heard the words, she suddenly woke up and shuddered. She quickly responded and walked over.

"What's wrong with you?" Lilith bent down and carefully observed this friend who had always been a little introverted. She was not as expressive as Lulu, so Lilith was afraid of missing her emotions and leaving her to bear it alone.

"--Are you scared?" They were all still children. Lilith guessed that Hannah was timid and might be frightened by such a bloody scene.

"No... I'm fine." Hannah forced a smile, shook her head, and looked towards the crowd worriedly.

She just... felt something was wrong.
