    Ed Rothtaylor detested the daily struggle of surviving at that terrible school; he had no other option but to persevere. Like every other day, this day also demanded a fight for survival in the unforgiving northern forest.

    The northern forest was intensely cold at night, but fortunately, he could build a fire and had successfully constructed a log cabin after months of residence in the North Forest.

    He had also managed to create a trap for catching prey, but this is where the unexpected occurred. On a tranquil night in the northern forest, only the sounds of the river and the crackling campfire were audible.

    Ed heard a faint groan near his bear trap. Driven by curiosity, Ed approached and pushed aside the dense undergrowth. He was surprised to find a girl seated on the ground, her left leg severely wounded and bleeding profusely from a bear trap.

    "Hey … calm down, I'll help you," Ed said, attempting to soothe the girl's distress. He carefully released her leg from the bear trap and examined the injury.

    "This is badβ€”sorry to be blunt, but you need immediate treatment," he said, assessing the injury. He then carefully scooped her up, supporting her weight, and carried her bridal-style to his cabin for care.
