Epic of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System

Rose proclaimed her desire to bathe in the blood of her former allies, the Vampires! Drake couldn't help but smile bitterly, she sometimes acted very cringy, but it was just how she was. He had still grown fond of the Ghost Vampire woman, and he saw her as a strong ally. He counted on her to protect the backs of the other three ghosts.

"I shall also go then! We have to quickly showcase our new strength as powerful Legendary Weapons…" said Skadi in her humanoid form.

"Yeah, don't worry about it, I'll try to not let her do whatever she pleases." Said Uller.

Drake was thankful that Uller came out as a normal person- or weapon, and wasn't as nuts as Skadi, so he let the responsibility to him, who was more like an older brother figure of Skadi even though he was technically made after her, so he was younger.

"You guys are all good at maneuvering while flying, so you're the best for a battle in the skies." Said Drake. He had considered sending his clones but knowing that they might get easily killed and take over a week to be summoned again made him hesitate, especially because if a clone dies, the head that they represent won't appear when he turns into a giant Dragon form, something he wouldn't really want to happen.

"Can I go too? The Ice Golems and the Snow Beasts are mostly made out of the souls of my people… Without me, they cannot be commanded properly…" said Tisha.

Tisha, the Ice Elven Chief and one of the strongest physical fighters within the group, she held an enormous blade which was her main weapon, and she was also as packed with muscles as Ice Giant ladies would, she was also covered in scars, and had an often-tomboyish personality, although Drake had also met her soft side, and she was a rather charming lady deep down.

She was also passionate with fighting and leading her people, although she wasn't going to lead the ice elves this time around, as she didn't wanted to risk them in this fight that cannot be as controllable as the invasion that the Winter Lotus Sect received from the Dark Shadow Sect, she still wanted to join this one fight in particular, as the Ice Golems and Snow Beasts were joining.

The Ice Golems and Snow Beasts were not just monsters Drake created out of thin air to fill in gaps, each one of them was a person, the soul of mostly ice elves, although there were also beast-kin and ice giants mixed in. Their origin goes all the way back to the Ice Moon Sect when Drake rescued these slaves being held captive by a Bandit Group and its leader, many of the slaves were left broken, with their bodies tainted and their minds shattered.

Many of them ended dying, their souls gathered around their discarded bodies and also the one that brought them this much suffering, and Drake pitied their lives and the suffering they had gone through, and ended asking them if they wanted to revive, he could potentially make them into powerful Undead using their original bodies, and many in the future revive them as pseudo-living beings, such as Benladann's parents or Zephyr now, but instead of that, they asked him to acquire bodies that wouldn't be weak anymore.

They wanted new bodies, untainted from the horrors they went through, bodies that were strong and sharp, that wouldn't budge to anyone's attacks easily, and even if they were destroyed, that they would simply shatter into pieces instead of bloody pulps… due to this, they all ended becoming either Ice Golems or Snow Beasts.

Of course, they were some sort of Undead in an extent, the same way possesing a full set of armor made a living armor, an undead, possesing an ice sculpture made an ice golem, but that was also sort of an undead, the same way a mass of snow would take the shape of a beast when possessed by another spirit.

Usually it would be hard for Drake to make Undead obey him, but they were all willing to obey him, and had become loyal to him after what he had done for them, avenging them from their perpetrator and also helping all of their living relatives survive and thrive inside of his Floating Castle.

Because of this, they were loyal to him and became powerful allies, who had been evolving over time, they were even able to cultivate mana, regain their magic, and learn all sorts of new abilities and techniques using their new bodies.

However, as 90% of all of them were former Elves that served Tisha as their tribe members, and respected her a lot, she had always a good affinity at commanding them. This was the reason why Tisha asked Drake if she could join.

But Drake wasn't so sure Tisha wasn't experienced in battles in the sky, and this might go bad, even if he could easily conjure the "Float" Spell on her and allow her to fly around, he never taught her how to fly and battle in the skies. The Ice Golems and the Snow Beasts were better at this as they used to be floating souls, and innately learned the ability to fly and maneuver in the skies, also, lacking any sort of weakness that flesh bodies gave to them, things such as lack of balance or nausea were not a thing for them.

However, she was rather proficient at riding beasts, as she had been riding ice horses and other creatures, and in her tribe the ice elves used to ride tamed beast such as ice bears too.

Then… an idea came to Drake's mind, he quickly decided to let his crows join as well, as they had been eager for some battle and in the last war they had not participated as much as they could had wanted to.

"Alright, Huginn, Muninn, make sure to protect her." he said.

"Craaa!"

"Crooaa!"

The two crows seemed to agree in letting her ride one of the two.
