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

Chapter 1307 Arriving At The Continent Of Flames, Muspelheim!

-----

After the talk with Ran and the further healing of the System, we spent the next few weeks inside of the Divine Realm peacefully preparing for the journey to Muspelheim. While less than a week went through in the outside world, we've lived a few weeks of relaxing vacations, over a month by now.

Thanks to the time dilation of my Divine Realm, which I can now seem to be able to freely adjust around, it has become really easy to maximize or time together even when little time happens outside. Like this, I'm able to spend much more time with my family.

However, once we reached the warm and tropical shores of Muspelheim, there was no more time to waste. We prepared everything together and decided to depart into the continent. We could simply try to fly over it but…

"Well, I can't… I mean, I can, I can try and all, but I believe I'll begin to melt." Fuyu sighed. "So it would be recommendable to either change my entire composition somehow or just come with everyone else in this form."

Apparently, the skies of Muspelheim were covered in an intensively heated, warm atmosphere, so hot that it could even melt Fuyu's icy body, therefore she would come in her slime manifestation, putting the Divine Realm inside of such body.

"I-Is this even a thing? You're not lying?" Asked Benladann. "How come just some hot temperature can melt you? Then most of our strongest Ice Magic is pointless here?"

"It's not pointless or something, in fact, in the surface it should be more effective but…" Fuyu said. "I've detected that the skies of this continent are enveloped in a unique atmosphere of intense heat, composed of Divine Fire Particles of high density, all tightly packed together. This atmosphere unique to this continent might also be the reason it is so hot at all times, no matter if the sun is far away or not."

"Insane…" Miranda said. "But this is a magic world I guess, don't be so skeptical, Benladann."

"I guess…" Benladann sighed. "I guess every continent used to be a "Realm" of its own, like a world itself, so having their own atmospheres makes some sense I suppose. Visiting a continent feels like coming to just a different world…"

"You could say so." Fuyu nodded. "We need to be careful here, unlike the seas connecting every continent, this place might be even more dangerous."

"Then let's get going." I nodded.

Having prepared everything we departed into the outside, emerging out of the ice-made ship floating in the oceans. Our party was quite large. My entire family including my daughters, Benladann, and Miranda accompanied me.

Alongside my family that made a single group, the second group was composed of Yuki, Pekora, and Tisha, who were all good friends and got along pretty well. The third group was composed of Hector, Larzak, and Kraxka, these made a good trio too. And lastly, the fourth group was composed of Ruby, her mother, and her father.

The Vampires would had been rather weak in this environment, but because they had been enhanced and blessed by Ruby's special blood, they would do fine.

Especially when everybody was wearing special anti-heat clothes I had crafted specifically for this occasion, they had a similar appearance to the clothes of Aquarius, looking like beautiful swimsuits with different designs, most girls wore skirts to feel freer, while males were wearing shorts or loose pants, similar to some Arabic clothing.

"Ah, man, it is really hot in here! It's even worse than in Aquarius." Hector instantly noticed as we stepped into the beaches.

The sky was slightly red, with some orange color. It wasn't at all blue, in fact, for a few kilometers into these warm seas, it has slowly become from blue to yellow, orange, and then red.

There were barely any clouds in the sky either, or the sun was shining brightly atop the skies, like a deadly ray of heat. People that wasn't born in here was bound to feel the uneasiness. But that was part of the experience of visiting a new place.

"Well, here we are." Larzak laughed. "It has been a long trip, Lord Drake. I am still grateful you've chosen us to join in this perilous journey!"

"Indeed." Kraxka nodded. "I am honored to have been recognized as a worthy soldier to your cause."

"Ah, it is nothing you two. I've heard lizardmen are quite resistant to heat as well, right?" I asked. "Do you feel comfortable around here?"

"Indeed, it is quite comfortable, the heat is nice to the body. We are cold blooded by nature, so heat is quite refreshing." Larzak smiled.

"Is Lord Drake not cold blooded like us?" Wondered Kraxka.

"Oh yeah, I guess I don't feel the heat as much either." I said. "Feels rather nice. And I can exude an aura of cold too, so everyone should be alright as long as we are together."

"Papa! This is a pretty beach- Oh, a crab!" Benladra began wandering around.

"Big crab…" Kate said.

"Huh?" I wondered, looking to their direction.

RUMBLE!

"GRYEGYEEEHHH…!"

It was a gigantic crab that surged out of the sands of the beach the moment we stepped into the continent! It was camouflaging itself by making its two eyes, the only thing visible out of the sand, look like large palm trees.

The rest of its body was fiery red, with flame-like markings, and it exuded a powerful, blazing aura as well… The sands continued shifting, as dozens of these crabs appeared one after the other, each one being of about three to five meters big.

Ding!

[A group of [Infernal Blazing Crabs (Rank 8: Initial Stage)] have spotted you!]

[They're quite hungry and have decided to charge immediately.]

"Wait, what? Rank 8 already? This continent's nuts…" I was flabbergasted by realizing crabs of Rank 8 were just lying around in the beach of Muspelheim.

"Can we eat crab for lunch?" Benladann wondered.

"I guess we have no other option." I shrugged. "[Freezing Cage]!"

FLUUOOOOSH!

A gust of freezing winds surged from my hand, the crabs rushing towards us were instantly frozen all in a single magic attack.
