Behind the ice walls there was an enormous figure. It was draconic in appearance and clad in black scales. Its two red shot eyes glared through the ice but seemed lifeless. Was this thing the Trial? But it wasn't even moving. Should we free it ourselves or something? I was completely out of words about what to even do.

"A dragon? Another one?!" Asked Benladann. "The first one was already too much…"

"This is a Trial not even the Venerable was able to complete, this dragon must be extremely strong." Hector said. "Can we even stand a chance…?"

"Hmmm… There's something tricky about this, certainly, we can't feel any presence… this thing's dead." Kraxka said.

"Another Scaled G.o.d this time, but a dead one?" Wondered Larzak.

"Frozen in the ice, it is surely more than dead." Said Miranda.

"Should we free that thing?" Wondered Rakasha, taking out his hammer which quickly began to blaze with flames.

I don't know if his fire can even stand a chance to whatever that ice prison is made out of, but it was worth giving it a try though… Maybe if I use my Divine Flames, the ice could be melted?

However, before we could even try anything, a message emerged before us, made completely out of various runes made from magic and divine power, s.h.i.+ning brightly atop our heads, it also came accompanied by the sound of the doors behind us closing tightly.

[This is the Last Trial of the True Inheritance.]

[The being before you is an Ancient Divine Dragon Progenitor that was once Corrupted by a Malicious Primordial Chaos Spirit, turning into a Chaos Dragon after being completely a.s.similated.]

[It was a powerful being stronger than the Ancient G.o.ds with the power of Chaos within itself, so strong that the three Great Demons had to use their full power to Seal it, cutting the monstrosity able to destroy entire continents into Fragments.]

[Over time, its Fragments awakened across the world after thousands of years since being Sealed, and would rampage, the G.o.ds had to take care of them, only for them to awaken over and over…]

[Back then, G.o.ds were not aware that this ent.i.ty was merely a part of something bigger, as they kept fighting it, believing it had the power to revive anywhere…]

[However, it was quickly found to by previous Venerables that this Dragon was merely a Fragment of the Truest Ent.i.ty dwelling within the World, a being that awakens every five hundred thousand years.]

[The Venerable fought this powerful Fragment, sealing it within her Inheritance like many other Venerables had done with other Fragments, but this ent.i.ty's power, although completely dead, might revive at any time, strong enough to completely cover an entire continent in destruction if fully rea.s.sembled, this monstrous creature's Fragment must be taken down before it is too late.]

[The Venerable… I, was incapable of defeating it unlike my predecessors. For some reason, I lacked the power that they had. Although I traveled across the world and found the most innate of understanding, something within my Ice simply was unable to destroy the power of Chaos… Then, I built this Inheritance and Tower to both seal this monstrosity and also bring the one of prophecy, the Dragon King.]

[As this Dragon is an Ancient Progenitor, its power is incredible. It is said that she was once the Dragon Progenitor of the Light Dragons, Asgard. However, as only a Fragment of its original body, which I've weakened over millenniums, it shouldn't be as strong, but still, it is a terrifying challenge.]

[All of you, chosen ones that defeated Terra and also managed to fight and advance across the Trial of Emotions, you're the ones that might be able to do what I was unable to do.]

[Especially the one at your side, Dragon King.]

The voice spoke with a soft voice, as if it were the voice of a woman filled with wisdom. Her voice resonated across the entire hall, creating echoes that made everybody feel a chill down their spine, me included. The moment she began to speak was when I knew this wasn't just some random monster, this ent.i.ty had a complete history behind.

And it was n.o.body else than a sister of my mother, Asgard, the Progenitor Dragon G.o.ddess of Light… How could she had been Corrupted by a Chaos Spirit to begin with?! Was she something like the Scaled G.o.d, whose actual name was Blaze? But he… he was weaker than a Progenitor, he was merely another offspring so it was understandable, I suppose.

But a Progenitor?

…Well, she said that there was a Primordial Chaos Spirit, whatever that is, it must be stronger and more dangerous than normal Chaos Spirits if it was able to absorb a Progenitor Dragon and force her to become a calamity of the world that was able to wipe out the life of an entire continent and was forcefully sealed by the Great Demons after being cut down into pieces.

"W-What?!" Benladann asked. "Wait a second, this is too much! How can we even kill something like this?! Aren't we just doing your job at this point?" Benladann was quick to get into her nerves.

[This is the last Trial, Daughter of Chaos. You're also the key on defeating this enmity. For ages, we had been waiting for someone like you, that can innately wield the dangerous Chaos Element. If you can complete the Trial, I shall personally welcome you and give you rewards, alongside the answers you seek, and something else…]

"Wait a second!" I said.

[The Trial shall begin now. Good luck, you'll need it.]

Without even trying to talk with us, the Frost Queen quickly decided to not intervene anymore, throwing us into the challenge right away. Of course, I knew that it wouldn't be so simple as she made it seem. After all, this thing was a being that could destroy continents, even if it was a Fragment, and weakened… it could still be tremendously and monstrously powerful. And above all, it is also the sister of my mother, my aunt.

TRUUUMMMM…!
