Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System Chapter 612 - Today Is The Day

Chapter 612 - Today Is The Day

-----

[Day 232]

Yesterday we spent the day leisurely. We had a good breakfast and more, and today in the morning, I had turned into a slime blue ma.s.s and sneaked outside of the bed stealthily, while Benladra and Benladann were sleeping.

Today in the morning I wanted to start the project of recovering the bodies of the Ancestors. I had promised them this in exchange for joining my side, so I had to do it.

I had been busy with the child, and they were respectful enough to not approach me when I am busy with my family.

Benladra can see ghosts and souls too, so if she sees them, she might get scared. The other time she was able to endure it mostly because I had her in my legs all the time and we had asked her to be strong.

But now that it wouldn't be with preparation, she would probably begin to cry immediately after seeing them.

You can't really find much reasoning behind babies, babies are babies, they're children that don't know how to behave and their nature and personalities are constantly changing around, as their very selves are slowly shaping themselves.

Instead of being angry at her for not being able to be strong enough to accept ghosts, I just decided for her to not see them and that was the end of it. I will slowly introduce them better, although she already saw them the other day.

The moment I went back to my humanoid form and walked around the corridors of my castle, I was quickly greeted by a few pa.s.serby people. Some ice giants, ice elves, and rabbit-kin.

"Ah, lord Drake, good morning."

"May your day be good today as well, lord Drake."

"Have a nice day, lord Drake."

"Look, mama! It's lord Drake!"

"Ahah… G-Good morning…"

I am still getting used of being greeted by so many people, especially because the entire castle interior is very vast, it is like a tower city by itself, so even going through a corridor might encounter me with people pa.s.sing through to reach higher floors.

In a way, this entire castle is all enclosed s.p.a.ce where everyone lives inside. I have yet to find a way to make it seem like the outside, like the dungeons have the power to do so, so everyone is just inside a ma.s.sive building, the corridors are like streets.

Of course, the area where I live with my family is mostly private, so not many can come here and pa.s.s through like nothing! These guys are… I think they work very close in the Alchemy Room, where they produce Cultivation Potions and the like, so it is justifiable, I guess.

Though I still dislike how they sometimes leisurely walk around like nothing! Who do they think they are? Or perhaps I should calm down and be less asocial.

While walking, I was greeted by the duo of intelligent weapons. Skadi and Uller, who were asking for my attention, it seemed.

"So you've been finally freed from your child, Master." Said Skadi.

"We have been missing you." Said Uller.

"We spent some time yesterday together… Also you guys are always hunting monsters in the dungeon or in the outside, its not like you don't? waste time." I said.

"W-Waste time?! We grow stronger by devouring the mana cores of monsters so of course we would go kill them daily!" said Skadi.

"It is also the only way I can feel any flavor. Even in this humanoid form, I can barely feel any taste." Sighed Uller.

Hm, I see… So these two Weapons want to experience things. After all, having two bodies that cannot easily die, sleep, eat, or anything is pretty boring, they have to constantly find something fun to do or they get bored to death.

I inspected both of their Status, and found that they had grown progressively stronger now, especially Skadi, and because they're living weapons with barely any weakness, that can even regenerate back when broken, they're already pretty overpowered.

So the biggest challenge they have is having something to do while not fighting, this is probably why they go hunting all the time as well.

"Well, you two can come with me, today I am doing something important, I shall attempt to recreate the bodies of the ancestors using their bones." I said.

"Oh, that does indeed sounds interesting." Said Skadi.

"Can you make us some new fleshy bodies so we can experience difficulties?" asked Uller.

"Uller I think you're getting a bit c.o.c.ky now, I don't think you would want that. Using dream magic, I can help you two sleep if you want to. Even if you don't even need to sleep to begin with, you still got souls that can rest and sleep, so I can help you sleep." I said.

"Ooooh?! Sleeping! That sounds interesting!" said Skadi.

"Sleeping does sounds appealing, okay, we'll take it." said Uller.

"Right now? You don't want to come with me?" I asked.

"Oh right! Yes, right! People sleep at night, right, Master?" asked Skadi.

"Yes, they do…" I sighed.

"So we can sleep at night then, it does sounds plausible!" said Uller.

Now that they have humanoid body transformation skills, it becomes a bit more annoying to have two large guys, a beautiful woman and a handsome and muscular man floating behind me all the time.

No, wait, I guess I am already used to it with the ancestors sticking with me all the time- Ah, talking about phantoms.

The trio of ghosts from the ancestors showed up right now, crossing through the walls and reaching up to me in an instant. Yukihime, Vasilisius, and Mikoto were all rather phantasmal today, as usual.

"Oh, Drake! Have you been finally freed from parental care?" asked Yukihime.

"Not exactly, I just sneaked out while the two girls were sleeping." I said. "What are you three doing here? Well, that's better, I had decided bringing you here anyways."

"Oh? You mean…?!" asked Vasilisius.
