Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System-Novel

-----

As it sought food to eat and devour, the beast was stopped by him, the green feathered dragon. 

Both fought desperately, the dragon was weak, yet it held the power to stop it, those blasted winds, they hurt like nothing before when they pierced and slashed its body.

It ran away, desperate to not be hurt anymore, swearing to come back again once more.

As it recovered within the depths of the ruins, its own toxicity spread like spores across the village taking shelter around the dungeon.

Without knowing, the people that were too weak to resist were infected by this spore, and "marked" by the beast.

And when it came back, it sought them, its meals.

It needed to feed desperately, it had not feed for too long, it needed blood and flesh, souls, even!

However, the dragon was there again, stopping it from taking as many as it wanted, and then more came interrupting its meal.

Filled with the resentment of having been abandoned by its father, it attacked back and fought, however, it was too hungry, it quickly decided to run away.

It ran as fast as it could, reaching the depths of the ruins once more, in there, it decided to recover, while absorbing the preys it has captured.

However, its peace was once more interrupted, the creature could simply not be alone with its own sorrow. They invaded its home.

It desperately used its ability to control the dungeon to seal itself within a single room, hoping that they would leave eventually.

But fate had a different plan for it, the entire dungeon trembled, as it was consumed and transformed into a Dream Dungeon.

The creature found itself trapped on its own dungeon, but at the same time, it realized it could do more than before now.

The Dream Dungeon had helped it awaken its powers, and to bring back the dead in the form of dream monsters.

The other test subjects that had died were brought back through this method, as the creature attempted to fend off the invaders.

However, as badly as it tried, they kept drawing closer and closer…

It wasn't the same as before now, it had realized its true calling… It will use these powers to turn the entire world into the ideal world their father wanted.

It will cleanse the world…

Maybe if it does that, it will no longer feel so empty inside, and it might finally… find a true purpose.

(Drake's POV)

The visions finally ended, as we were able to fully grasp what had happened. And that vision might be the very last, the dream of the foe we've been chasing this entire time, that creature.

A tree made by Jonathan, the Demon of Technomancy on his efforts to recreate the tree that could have saved his planet, a being made using the branches of Yggdrasil and a body part of Pandemonium, a bastard we meet not so long ago.

Despite the sorrow it might have been through, I still can't forgive that thing for kidnaping these people to eat them, at the end of the day, it still just another monster on the way.

"Was that a dream related to that monster?" Wondered Emerald. "To think that's what it has been thinking…"

"It was briefer than the rest…" Benladann sighed. "I wonder what happened to Jonathan and Takeru after that, it didn't show us such a thing…"

"Seems like if we want to find out more, we might have to search for another Inheritance, maybe." Miranda crossed her arms as she glanced around her surroundings. "Something feels off…"

"It has certainly become stronger when the Dream Dungeon was created…" Zero commented. "And if it truly devoured one of my siblings… Then it must be slain, no matter what."

"And we shall do that." I nodded, looking at the gates in front of us.

And then I realized they weren't opening, and that something, a presence, was watching us. The vegetation, the flowers, even the crystals scattered everywhere started to gather into a gigantic mass in front of us.

It slowly took the shape of some sort of dragon, imitating our appearance, its wings made from red, yellow, and green crystals, while its claws were made of red wood and its fangs of spikes.

"GRRRHHHH…!"

Its presence kept growing larger, as we stepped back, preparing to battle. It seemed that the one behind everything wasn't going to come out yet, it had sent one last gift before that.

"What is that?! Another monster?" Tyrannus protested. "But we were already at the end!"

"T-This is unfair!"

"You damn bastard, stop hiding behind your creations!"

"Coward! You're a damn coward!"

The warriors roared angrily, tired of fighting so many beasts sent by the one behind everything. The creature, of course, could not even be bothered to care about their complains, Demonic Energy surging from the vines and roots everywhere, further boosting the power of the thing in front of us.

"To think it would simply bring forth yet another creature to stop us, this guy doesn't like to give up, isn't it?" Miranda sighed, her Demonic and Miasmic Aura surging from her body. "Well, no point arguing about it…"

"I agree, there's no point in wasting our time with this, let's quickly hunt it down and get to it. This must be its very last resort." Benladann said, her two axes glowing with Chaotic Aura as her body was covered on an armor of black and purple scales.

"We'll fight too!" Benladra said, holding her spear.

"Yeah." Kate nodded. "We have to save those people…!" She held her sword tightly.New chapters are published on novelenglish.net . Fire(.)nᴇt

"I agree…" Emerald nodded, his claws overflowing with Heaven's Winds Divine Aura, he had a different air to him now, slightly more courageous than before. "Let's do this!"

"So that's why it took a dragon form, huh?" I laughed. "Alright, faker, let's end this quickly."
