Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System Chapter 1639 Shield Distribution

Chapter 1639 s.h.i.+eld Distribution

-----

After everything, I moved back to my castle with Kate on my arms, leaving her sleeping over her bed and covering her with warm blankets after feeding her some of my Divine Power and Mana. It is dangerous for a Divine Dragon to run low on Divine Power. I had already spent over six hundred million Divine Power on the Tiamat Scale, but Kate had used all two billion she had acc.u.mulated.

Feeling bad about it, I donated her two billion right away, leaving me with barely two billion. It was good enough for the two of us. My little princess sacrificed all her savings for us, as her father, I can't let her stay with no Divine Power at all! I will restore mine over time anyways. I do have a lot of Divine Monsters I can eat to restore it.

Once the Divine Power transfer was done, she looked much healthier and refreshed. The stronger we become as G.o.ds, the more Divine Power we need to become stable. Although it is also a resource to strengthen our Divinities and Abilities, and for pretty much everything, it is also our lifeblood, to lose everything is to grow weaker, which might result on getting our cultivation crippled.

"I heard the news! You made the s.h.i.+elds?" Benladann appeared with Miranda, Drakda, and Benladra, coming out from the Chaos Dragon Realm.

"Yep, there's only twenty though." I said. "But I think they might be enough for most of our fighters. I think you should all get one though."

"We can share one." Miranda said.

"How strong is it, daddy?" Benladra asked me.

"You can look for yourselves!" I showed them the s.h.i.+eld.

The status of the s.h.i.+eld appeared in front of them, as the girls inspected it with great detail. Drakda didn't knew how to read though, so he was staring at it absent minded.

"It's insane." Benladann said.

"Yep." Miranda nodded.

"Woaah… Wait! Daddy, is the effect of this s.h.i.+eld free? Like, does it cost energy to use?" Benladra asked.

"I don't know, it doesn't specify it, huh?" I wondered. "Let me try."

I looked at the s.h.i.+eld and grabbed it, quickly using my own will and activating its effect. A semi-transparent armor of colorful divine draconic aura covered my entire body.

It used the s.h.i.+eld's own internal energy, and it seemed to not drain any energy at all from me!

"It's free!" I said. "It seems to drain the s.h.i.+eld's own energy, which might be endless? But that's impossible… System, can you a.n.a.lyze this further?"

"Let me check." She touched the s.h.i.+eld with her phantasmal hands.

FLAs.h.!.+

The moment she did, her eyes turned completely blue, as neon blue circuits spread through the s.h.i.+eld. Then, she gently moved her hand away.

"a.n.a.lysis complete." She said almost robotically. "It looks like it has an internal pool of energy it uses. It uses… Primordial Energy! However, it seems you can't control it directly, only through the ability can it be controlled. I feel like if it runs out, it'll simply recover again over time. The s.h.i.+eld by itself is alive. It is as if the scale carried with itself a fragment of Tiamat's soul."

"Maybe because it did?" Benladann wondered. "I do remember talking with her, when she gave you her scale, she didn't bring it out of anywhere, just took it off her body. But the body we saw was her own soul, right?"

"You mean her scale was actually a piece of her soul? But it was completely solid and didn't suffer any strange phantasmal disintegration like Soul Treasures do when interacting with the Physical Plane." I a.n.a.lyzed. "Maybe that's how Primordials are…" Miranda said. "I have heard she died though, right? So her true body merged with the world or something. But even her soul is still as strong as her physical body."

"Perhaps Primordials reach something like a middle ground? Like… Their soul and physical body become aligned and become very similar? Both can exchange traits of the other with ease!" Said Benladra. She was such a smart girl.

"Maybe, good theory." I nodded. "For now, that's that. You're getting one too, Benladra. Can you equip it?"

"S-Sure, but do I need one? I can always just stay in the back anyways!" Benladra said. "I won't bother in the frontlines."

"Even then, for your own safety… Also the s.h.i.+eld is very strong, and it'll make your attack stronger. You're a spear wielder too, you're bound to step out of your boundaries and fight very closely to your enemies anyways. Don't think your father doesn't you well, young lady." I gave her the s.h.i.+eld after giving her a gentle head pat.

"Fine… I'll take it. But it's only twenty, is it really enough for our whole team?" She was worried about everyone else.

"It should be for our main fighters." I said. "So it's…"

Twenty s.h.i.+elds.

Me.

Benladann & Miranda.

Kate.

Benladra.

Drakda? I guess.

That's five already, for our whole family.

There's fifteen lefts.

Surtr.

Mina.

Nadia.

Jamar I suppose?

Emerald.

Rakasha.

Ruby.

Tisha.

Pekora.

Yuki.

That's ten, plus the five from before, fifteen.

Who's left?

Ah.

Hector.

Larzak.

Kraxka.

There are two more s.h.i.+elds left after that.

So they go to whoever can wield it?

Maybe if Charlotte, the dwarf captain joins, I could give her one.

If not, perhaps Tyrannus or Amehia could join the fray.

Those two seem to have grown very strong already, and I bet they're going to stick around their Sacred Beast.

Though, I doubt I'll let Tyrannus bring the other warriors.

Oh right, there's also the Oracle and his sister left, the Oracle is definitely coming, but he's not a frontline fighter at all, he'll stay as back as possible.

His sister in the other case, is a mixed bag.

Oh well, we'll see how we resolve this.

"Yeah, it's almost enough for our whole team. I am surprised we got a team of twenty-two people or so. There'll be two that won't be able to wield a s.h.i.+eld, we'll decide who later." I said. "Dad, did you just count everyone?!" Benladra asked in surprise. "Y-You did it in like one second…"

"Ahh, really? I guess my mind is quite fast, haha!" I laughed. "Anyways, let's leave little Kate resting for now. How about some Bolognese for lunch?"

"Sure!"
