[Ice Fantasy]

[Episode 1]

Many years later

here I stand at Prisoner’s Rock by the coast

gazing out to the sea...

Looking from afar toward my kingdom...

Into the distance, I gazed...

I looked at my people...

All those who died in the Battle of Ice and Fire.

Snowy Lion is playing with the celestial grass again?

Prince Ka Suo, you'll spoil him.

My honorable prince, you come of age today at 130 years old.

All the officials have arrived at Snowblade City

to celebrate your birthday.

I think it's about time you return home to dress up.

Is Ying Kong Shi already dressed for the occasion?

Has he gone out again?

You know young prince Shi doesn't like events like this.

Granny.

Snowmist Forest is only for children.

What is an adult like you doing here?

Granny, I'm Ka Suo.

Ka Suo?

Ka Suo is already so grown up?

Have you forgotten that I turn 130 today?

I have come of age.

My goodness, you're already 130 years old?

130 years old...

- You're already so old? - Granny.

Have you seen Ying Kong Shi?

Ying Kong Shi?

He's over there!

Stop right there!

Stop! Don't run!

Thief!

- Don't run! - Stop right there!

Give that back, you thief!

- That's right! Give it back! - Give it back!

You're the thieves!

You're the one who stole our sleet bird.

- Exactly! - You stole it!

Do you think I don't know that you stole it from its nest?

Don't be scared. I'll take you home now.

You don't even have any powers.

How could you get up to the nest?

That's right!

- You don't have any powers! - Exactly!

I can do it!

Stop right there!

- Stop! - Get back here!

Stop right there!

You don't even wield any powers.

Even a mortal is tougher than you.

You're not fit to be a prince!

Right! You're not fit to be a prince!

- You're worse than a mortal! - You're not fit to be a prince!

Boys, get ready!

- Run! - Quickly!

Run!

I'm all right, Ka Suo.

What they said is true.

I'm used to it by now.

Ka Suo, hurry up!

Ka Suo! It's all done.

Ying Kong Shi, it's my coming-of-age ceremony today.

Are you really going to skip it?

Ying Kong Shi...

Look at my name. In the Codex of Magical Powers

it means "mirage."

My whole existence is a mirage.

It appears to be real, but it's not actually there.

Ka Suo, you should return alone.

My brother... you're really leaving?

The food supplies are provided every three days to all mortal candidates

for the selection of The Guardian's envoys.

Pick up the supplies at Stormy Altar.

The only rule is to do your best.

Best of luck to everyone!

Yang Dan.

Who knew that Li Luo would also test the candidates

on retrieving food supplies?

Lu Zhao, have you only just realized that she is tougher than any man?

It's no wonder she's still single.

You're not to laugh at Li Luo.

It's because she's braver than any man

that she became the most outstanding envoy of The Guardian.

You're out.

Why?

You don't have the heart of a guardian.

As an envoy of The Guardian

it's our duty to uphold justice and keep the peace between the mortals and gods

as well as work together to fend off any invasion.

However, you harmed your comrades for your own interest.

You're not fit to become an envoy of The Guardian.

Who are you to say that I'm not fit?

I'll defeat you today to be rewarded by General Ke Tuo!

Go home and train a bit more.

Turnip, let's go!

- Are you all right? - Are you hurt?

What do you think of Ka Suo?

Why, does Mermaid Saint fancy him? Should I check him out for you?

Nonsense.

You're the only one in the entire Mermaid tribe

who dares to talk to me like this.

Ka Suo, where have you been?

Where have you been?

Hurry, the ceremony has started.

Go in quickly.

He's right. Father was asking after you just now.

It's all your fault.

Prince Ka Suo.

The King and Queen of Ice is here.

First of all

I'd like to express my gratitude to everyone for coming to Snowblade City

to attend my son Ka Suo's coming-of-age birthday ceremony.

Welcome!

This is wonderful!

It's so pretty!

Stop right there!

What is the Fire Tribe doing here?

You're indeed a true envoy of The Guardian.

You noticed me, the prince of the Fire Tribe, so quickly.

What brings you here?

Relax. I'm here on my father's orders to wish Prince Ka Suo a happy birthday.

Shi, could you escort me home?

Lotus.

Guests from far-flung tribes are all present today.

Why don't you...

I'm not feeling well.

Prince Xin Jue of the Fire Tribe arrives!

- What is he doing here? - Prince Xin Jue?

What brings him here?

What exactly is Prince Xin Jue doing here?

Right?

What does this mean?

Mermaid Saint, aren't the Ice Tribe and the Fire Tribe arch enemies?

The Mermaids will remain neutral until the end

unless the situation deteriorates.

You're only to observe. Don't utter a word. Understand?

I didn't expect Prince Xin Jue to visit Snowblade City.

Acting upon King of Fire's orders

I'm here to present a treasure of Fire Tribe

to Prince Ka Suo for his 130-year-old birthday.

I thank King of Fire for his gift.

Prince Xin Jue, thank you for being here.

Before I hand you the gift, I have a small request to ask of you.

Do tell.

I heard that you are the most gifted wielder

of magical powers in Ice Tribe.

I wonder if we could have a friendly match?

A friendly match?

- It doesn't sound good. - You're right.

Ka Suo, don't fall for his lie.

What is it?

Are the magical powers of the Ice Tribe nothing more than a hoax?

This is too much...

- He's being rude. - Seriously.

Fine.

We'll have a match as Prince Xin Jue requested.

What weapon is Prince Ka Suo using?

I don't wield any weapons.

You underestimate me then?

I won't fight you.

What do you mean?

We can have a match with magical powers without it turning into a battle.

Look at the frost lake before you.

We will both wield our magical powers.

Let's see if Prince Xin Jue can make the waters of the lake boil first

or I can freeze it first?

If you lose, you are to take three blows of my flames without any resistance.

Xin Jue only came to pick a fight.

Should Ka Suo win the match

the Fire Tribe might stir up trouble out of embarrassment.

If that is true, Ka Suo shouldn't defeat him

but if he loses, he will be beaten up...

What should we do?

We will bide our time and act accordingly.

Come this way!

This is so much fun!

Little ones!

Prince Xin Jue has turned the frost lake into a warm spring.

You can all play in it now. Shouldn't you thank him?

- Quickly. Let's thank Prince Xin Jue. - Thank you, Prince Xin Jue.

Thank you, Prince Xin Jue.

Thank you.

- Thank you, Prince Xin Jue! - Thank you!

Prince Xin Jue is highly skilled in magic.

I'm very impressed.

Today I learned that magic isn't your best skill, it is your cleverness.

Very enlightening.

Ka Suo!

How was it?

Well done!

Well done!

Ka Suo is indeed the most suitable heir to the throne.

He resolved the crisis without even wielding a sword.

What do you think of Ka Suo now?

I don't know.

Ka Suo, Xin Jue is obviously no match for you.

Why did you have me bring those children over?

Both the Ice Tribe and the Fire Tribe have kept peace for a hundred years.

If I won the match

it would have given the Fire Tribe an excuse to launch war upon us.

If I lost, the Fire Tribe would belittle us.

I see.

Neither winning nor losing was an ideal option.

Am I right?

Therefore, you could only give Xin Jue credit for warming the waters

so that he could leave honorably.

Making the children happy was a nice side-effect.

Everyone says that you will become the future king.

As a king, you mustn't be so softhearted.

I've never wanted to become the king.

What would you like to be then?

Maybe I'll be a sleet bird?

Look.

Sleet birds can fly anywhere they please.

You would choose freedom over the throne of Snowdom?

Since I was a child, I witnessed the difficult choices Father had to make.

I would rather just be who I am.

I'll help you fulfill your wish.

Really?

My brother, we can surely fulfill our wishes.

You must believe in me.

I will keep my word.

Soon, Ka Suo, you will be like the sleet birds.

Soaring high and free!

General, you asked to see me?

Have you scared off all the candidates again?

Did I scare them off?

Isn't that better than being banished from Immortal Realm by you?

How can one learn to walk without falling over a few times?

Prince Ka Suo has sent his messenger owl to ask for you again.

It's that Prince Ka Suo of the Immortals who seems to have endless questions?

Prince Ka Suo is the future King of Ice.

You'll have to pledge your services to him, so don't be rude.

Why does he always have to bother me

with trivial questions regarding the mortal world?

I've never seen an immortal as interested in the mortal world as he is.

Whatever the reason, he is one-of-a-kind.

Therefore, you will answer his questions as well as you can.

I just wish he'd stop asking about what happens when mortals eat food.

How could I possibly explain to him that after mortals digest the food

we have to use the toilet and it stinks afterwards?

Immortals like you know nothing about worldly life.

All right, I'll get back to answering Prince Ka Suo's questions.

Your Highness.

I'm Envoy of The Guardian, Li Luo.

I know that.

You asked why a mortal like me was chosen as envoy of The Guardian.

This is because...

The gods are way more powerful than the mortals.

If gods were also envoys of The Guardian

they could easily kill a mortal by accident.

In a worst-case scenario, should the envoys be malicious

the mortal world would be diminished without much effort.

Hence the gods made a pact with the mortals

to assign only mortals who possess psychic powers as envoys.

I imagine your next question would be

"Could the magical powers of mortals defeat the Immortal gods?"

Envoy of The Guardian, you always know what questions I have in mind.

If we were to fight against each other seriously

the mortals wouldn't stand a chance.

However, the only advantage we have

is that when mortals are injured

and the gods are stained with mortal blood

you will lose protection from magical powers temporarily.

Therefore, you won't be able to wield your powers.

This is a pact made between the mortals and the immortals.

Hence, in the battles between mortals and the immortals

gods who harbor evil intentions would use mortals as their shield

to fend off or weaken magical powers of their immortal opponents.

That is so cruel.

Don't bite the prince's messenger owl!

Let go of the owl!

If you won't let go of it, I will...

Look!

You chewed off its feathers!

Fortunately, Li Luo managed to save you.

This mortal envoy of The Guardian

can always anticipate what is on my mind.

What does she look like?

Why won't she show up in person when she reports back to me?

Why does she only send back my messenger owl?

I'll drop by the campsite of mortal envoys unexpectedly one day

and see her in person.

Why isn't he here?

What are you doing?

Let go of me!

It hurts...

Help me up!

Help me up!

You...

You're the princess of The Mermaids?

I've heard that before your people are married to foreign tribes

your legs are weak.

I guess it's true!

You...

We swim around!

Who walks around slowly like you do?

Why have you swum all the way here? To see my older brother?

Your older brother?

You're Ka Suo's younger brother?

This is great!

Why isn't he here?

Where has he gone? I'd like to see him.

Could you take me to him? Please?

Princess of The Mermaids.

Could it be that you have fallen for my brother?

Nonsense!

I...

I never said so.

Really?

Since that isn't the case, there's no need for you to see him.

Don't leave!

Do you want to see my brother or not?

Could you...

Could you tell him

that I'll be waiting for him under the Eternity Tree in Snowmist Forest?

Tell him that he must show up.

Otherwise...

I won't leave until he shows up!

Judging by your state, you couldn't leave even if you wanted to.

Not that you actually want to leave.

Don't forget to convey my message!

Stop right there!

What have I done wrong?

Forgive us for being rude

but Prince Xin Jue, this place is off-limits to foreign tribes.

Please leave right away.

Sure.

He's... Could he be here already?

Go on.

Come and play when clear-air birds aren't around.

- Granny. - Yes?

What's the matter with the clear-air birds?

They went crazy.

They are flying and charging recklessly in the forest.

Ka Suo.

Princess Lan Shang of The Mermaids is waiting for you

under the Eternity Tree in Snowmist Forest.

Granny, did you see the mermaid princess enter Snowmist Forest?

I didn't.

Thank you for rescuing me.

I've long heard of the mermaid princess's good looks.

It's said to be the best of all gods.

You do live up to your reputation.

I have to attend to other matters.

If you dare to lay your hands on me, our Mermaid Saint will have you killed!

Mermaid Saint is known to only care about reputation.

For your reputation and happiness, I'm sure she wouldn't have the heart

to kill her future son-in-law.

Stop it!

Ka Suo?

I know you are on my side.

Why is the King of the Fire Tribe here?

Who is that woman?

Damn it.

Who is the traitor?
