Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System Chapter 1844: Finishing Things Here

Chapter 1844: Finis.h.i.+ng Things Here

"Without your help it wouldn't had been possible... Thanks a lot," Emil sighed. "I was unable to find my parents but... All these people are still very important to me. They're finally freed, and alive. And that's what matters..."

He walked towards my daughters.

"Thanks a lot too, Kate, Benladra," he said. "You two helped me more than I thought, and despite how little time we've met, I think we've become friends."

"Of course!" nodded Benladra. "We're friends, Emil!"

"Hm," Kate nodded. "We're friends."

"Thank you!" Emil felt rather happy. "With that said, I guess it's time for us to depart. I need to bring these people to some place safe. They've been isolated their entire lives, so they really don't know how to even live in here. Most people have no memories other than from their original planet..."

"I see, then we might not be seeing each other again," I said. "You're going to your village?"

"Yeah, we are," Emil said. "My friends are waiting me outside the village. They brought a lot of vehicles they rented. I've already talked them through telepathy about everything... "They're good friends, my family."

"Alright then, let's go out, let us guard you until we get there," I said.

"Thanks... It makes me feel bad we're relying on you even for this but... I guess it can't be helped," Emil sighed.

"Yeah, don't worry about it, Emil!" said Benladra.

"Hm, let's go," Kate smiled.

We walked through the more isolated areas of the city as we let Emil's people, who were all covered on robes to hide their ident.i.ties roam through the city and watch everything.

They were very amazed, most of them had never seen cities of this caliber, they came from tribes after all, which mostly lived inside of jungles.

Once we reached the outside of the city, we saw several flying vehicles... I had my suspicions, so by using my enhanced psychic powers, I read the minds of his friends.

They seemed happy, tired, and a bit expectant of the future. No malicious intentions... Hm, well, alright.

I can read the minds of people now... it seems to be a new psychic power my brain has developed, though it doesn't work on beings that are rather strong.

For example, I can't read the minds of any of my family members!

And well, not like I would ever do if I could anyways.

However, of normal, common people like those guys, I more or less can do it.

"Emil! You're finally back! And... just as you said, woah..."

"Y-You brought so many people! I hope they can fit... We only rented five vehicles."

"They'll have to, we'll find a way for everyone to fit inside, don't worry!" Emil smiled. "Thank you guys for everything!"

"It's fine, I mean, Drake saved us, and he gave us so much money..."

"Yeah, the least we could do was this!"

I guess they weren't wrong, they got a lot of money from all the things the thugs had, which I just gave to them at the end.

We saw with my family all of Emil's tribe members enter the vehicles, and yeah, they barely fit inside, but they did, so it was alright.

"I'll protect everyone with my abilities, so don't worry about us, uncle Drake," said Emil. "Thanks again for everything..."

"It's alright," I nodded. "Take care of your people, Emil... And I hope you can find your parents one day."

"I hope so too! But this... this is fine too," Emil smiled. "Thank you everyone! Benladra, Kate! Thank you for being my friends!"

As the vehicles moved across the skies, rapidly flying into the horizon, we waved our arms as we saw them depart.

Well, that was quite nice.

It left me this happy feeling inside; I don't know how else to describe it.

This is definitely not an illusion or a dream, this is certainly real...

This world, it might be a "fragment" of something else.

A recreation of something, perhaps.

We'll find out once we're finally done with it, for sure.

"Will we really not see Emil again, dad?" wondered Benladra, she seemed a bit sad.

"Yeah?" wondered Kate, she was just as sad.

"Hmm..." I muttered. "I don't really know... I hope we can. I really do. Let's go now."

We moved back to the city, where the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps were still trying to take down the Whalebug with terrible results.

With this time, we moved to the train station and then decided to see if they had any tickets for the train that had stopped.

"Yeah, a lot of people that took the train ended abandoning it, so we got a lot of free seats... But are you sure you want to buy one?" A rusty-looking, bulky robot man wondered, scratching his metallic head. "We don't even know when they'll spook that huge Whalebug away! I'm really sorry..."

"It's fine," I said. "I want tickets for the whole family please."

"Hmm, the whole family... So one, two, three, four, five, six... Six tickets?"

"Yes."

"Alright... That'll be six thousand."

He quickly took six tickets and then exchanged them for the money I paid him.

"Thank you for your purchase. I hope you got patience; this might take days or a whole week..." the robot man sighed. "Hah, oh well... I've seen worse things. Like that time..."

As he started talking about the past with my family, I sneaked away and quickly turned into a dragon, flying towards the Whalebug.

FLAs.h.!.+

The people of the city panicked as they saw me again, although a large group also celebrated.

I heard the pilots of the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps screaming at me, but I ignored them too.

I reached the Whalebug, as the gigantic creature glanced at me with its huge bug-like eyes...

"GROOOOHHHH!"

It seemed mostly scared and in pain and wasn't particularly angry at me or anything.

They seemed like peaceful creatures, now that I read their mind.

"Alright buddy, I'm going to help you get out of here... For that I'll need Astra and Belle's help! Can you girls help me spread open the crack in s.p.a.ce where the Whalebug is coming?"

"...!"

"Sure!"

Astra and Belle nodded, rus.h.i.+ng towards the opposite left and right sides of the Whalebug. While the giant thing waved its body around, I infused my void powers into the cracks in

s.p.a.ce.

And with my spirit's help...

Crack, crack...!

CRAAAs.h.!.+

The crack opened even larger, as the Whalebug quickly escaped back where it came from!
