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

-----

The Kingdom of Frost Tear, apparently a Port Kingdom that receives most of its income through the transaction of items from around the world. It is located near the coasts of the continent, and it seems to have a blooming economy thanks to these constant trades it does with other ports of the world.

Apparently, they're being guarded by several sect families, so they got a lot of protection from outside threats, and they live peacefully.

The place seems to be blooming with the cultures of the world, and it might seem to be a more open-minded Kingdom about other races because they accept trades from around the world, and probably Adventurers and Mercenaries from other continents might come here as well.

There is also the business they do with many other Kingdoms; I would assume they profit from this as well as they sell the things they trade with other continents and regions.

"They profit from selling items to other Kingdoms, materials, food, and more. They also send their own vessels across the sea towards the neighboring continents and other nations that are located near the coasts of the continent." Said Mikohime.

"Their four Duchies are all surrounding the main capital territory, so you could go visit them one by one if you may like," said Thaletus.

"This is interesting, if we could make some trades with that Kingdom, we could get a lot of materials." Said Benladann.

"I think so too. I wonder if they could sell Rank 5 Mana Cores…" I said.

As of now the only thing that could help me grow stronger are Rank 5 Mana Cores, going to this big port city where items from all around the world are traded sounds like a great place to find such treasures.

"Mana Cores are a big part of the sales as well, around the world there are many different types of monsters, some monsters have mana cores that contain the power of fire or other elements, which we use to activate magic technology… Sadly, our Sects are quite rudimentary, but the Kingdoms are always more technologically advanced, and require these resources as a daily basis to sustain their entire territory." Said Mikohime.

"We could quite possibly sell off our items there and make a nice profit, and then maybe try to make some trade contracts with the aristocrats there! Though the hard part is trying to find them and make them trust us and all…" said Benladann.

"Hm, I don't know how we'll do that, but maybe by trading a whole lot we can get somewhere." Said Miranda.

"There are a lot of business opportunities there… Maybe it could be finally my time to shine as a business maker! I will help you trick the people into lowering their prices." Said Yukihime.

"I can help you as well!" said Vasilisius.

"You're terrible at that old man, don't you remember that one time that they tricked you into selling mana cores at a super cheap price in exchange for some shitty artifacts?!" asked Yukihime.

"Okay stop discussing, I get it." I said.

"For now it would be better to move to the closest duchy from here… I think it was named Orange Forest." Said Mikohime.

"Do you got any map?" I wondered.

"We do, we'll bring it here tomorrow." Said Mikohime.

"I also got one…" said Thaletus.

"Fufu, but I offered it first, so suck it up." Said Mikohime.

A port city… it really sounds like fun, although the duchy seems to be far away from the main port city, but we'll explore it a bit and then continue in our journey to the other duchies. It seems that the Orange Forest Duchy could have a forest of oranges… or does it has a literal, orange-colored forest?

"The Orange Forest Duchy is quite small and it is surrounded by a forest made of orange trees, they make a special citric fruit that is very sweet and tasty, which they sell off." Said Mikohime.

"It has been years since I ate those Oranges…" said Thaletus.

"I guess that's it. We are going there!" I said.

"W-What about the marshlands with the beast folk?" asked Pekora.

"You want to go there?" I wondered.

"Well…" muttered Pekora.

"Okay. I am also quite curious so we'll explore it on its due time. For now, let's wrap things up." I said.

The day passed leisurely as we continued dinning, as things were finished and we were only enjoying some drinks while talking things, Benladra began to get stressed, until she started to cry.

"Buaaaah! Buuaaah!"

"Oh my… You lasted so long, dear, what is it now?" sighed Benladann.

"I think she's just tired, let's bring her to the cradle… Maybe changing her diapers too." I said.

"Yes, let's do it." said Benladann.

"Sorry guys, I think we should finish this meeting for now, it is already pretty late, you can take the teleportation tiles back to your original dungeons and then you can walk back to your sects." I said.

"Thanks, Drake, we understand." Said Thaletus.

"Being a parent is not easy…" said Mikohime.

"Benladra still resisted until very late, she had grown more accustomed to people than before." Said Rakasha.

"Yeah, I have noticed that." Said Pekora. The source of this content is _Fire

We walked back to the bathroom with a crying baby in my arms, as we quickly changed her diapers, washed her down there with warm water and soap until everything was well clean, then we dried it up with some wind magic, and put some new diapers on her.

"Abubaah!"

Benladra seemed relieved, she was not only stressed but she had filled her diapers already, so she was feeling annoyed by it.

"Good as new now!" said Benladann, kissing her forehead.

"You behaved very well with all the people today, my daughter, well done." I said, kissing her as well.

"Papa… Mama!"

Benladra stretched her little arms at us, as she hugged me tightly and rested her little head in my shoulder, while Benladann hugged her from behind.

After that, we moved to bed and she insisted on sleeping with us, so we ended sleeping with her in the middle of the two, she was very warm and cozy.
