However, as the acting guild leader, NorthWind fell unexpectedly silent.

He looked at his ecstatic brothers and sisters, then at Riley. Flis hand unconsciously tightened around a charred piece of red cloth.

“SpicyBurger…” NorthWind’s voice was hoarse. He took a deep breath, as if making an impossibly difficult decision. “Arthur, Damian, Hanna, and the rest… they can join Hope Guild. I agree, and I thank you on their behalf for offering this lifeline. They’ll definitely have a better future with Hope Guild than with the Drifters.”

He paused, looking up to meet Riley’s eyes. “But… I’m not going.”

“Bro! What the hell are you talking about!” Arthur panicked, struggling to stand.

Riley frowned slightly but didn’t interrupt, signaling him to continue.

“I won’t disband the Drifters Alliance.” Northwind looked down at the red cloth in his hand, his voice thick with unshakeable grief

and stubbornness.

“On my first day in this freezing wasteland, I got a garbage spawn point right in front of a level 1 Blood Wolf. I didn’t even know how to open the system Inventory back then. I thought I was dead meat. But SouthWind… he spawned nearby, and he ran over with a broken wooden spear to save me.”

NorthWind continued, “I thanked him profusely and asked if he was a cop or a firefighter back on Earth. He told me he was just a delivery guy, a nobody. But he said even nobodies can have huge energy, and he wanted to do something different.

“A long time later, when he founded the Drifters Alliance, there were only three of us. He smiled and said he wanted to build a guild dedicated to helping the weak and maintaining fairness. He said he didn’t want to see anyone freeze to death just because they couldn’t grab supplies, and he didn’t want to see big guilds bullying lone wolves.”

NorthWind looked up, scanning the ruins as if searching for that resolute figure standing against the blizzard.

Tears finally spilled from his eyes, crashing into the snow, but he kept his back perfectly straight. “Hope Guild is an amazing place. I know that under your lead, everyone will be treated right. But… I wanna keep the Drifters Alliance alive.”

He looked at Riley, his gaze unwavering. “SouthWind is gone, but what he built is still here. Even if I’m the only one left, I’m gonna carry the Drifters Alliance banner for him. I want… I want to leave at least a trace that Southwind existed in this world. I want to tell anyone who comes here in the future that there was a guild leader named Southwind here, and he was a hero. D

The wind howled through the ruins, seemingly answering his stubborn resolve.

The members of the Drifters Alliance all had red eyes. Damian covered his face, openly sobbing. The Hope Guild members also fell silent; ToxicReaper took off his glasses and quietly wiped the lenses.

PineappleBeer looked at NorthWind, an unprecedented flash of respect passing through her typically cold, hard eyes.

In her memories spanning two lifetimes, she was entirely used to the betrayals and ugliness of the apocalypse. Such pure loyalty was incredibly rare.

Riley listened quietly. Looking into NorthWind’s resolute eyes, she knew she shouldn’t–and couldn’t–force the issue any further.

In the apocalypse, people lived to survive, but what kept them going was often that tiny, irrational spark of conviction in their hearts

“I understand

Riley nodded, her tone taking on a solemn weight.

She casually opened her system Inventory, her eyes scanning the dazzling pile of loot she had just received from the jade chest. Suddenly, her gaze locked onto a card emitting a faint purple glow.

It was one of the extremely rare item cards she had pulled during the collective settlement.
