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

Chapter 1438 Opening A New Dream Dungeon

?

-----

Zero, a Dungeon Spirit and the Guardian of Takeru's first Inheritance, the Inheritance of the Demon of Dungeons. I had acquired the first inheritance a long while ago, and since then, Zero had been living inside the many Dungeons I control and combine together.

He had been managing things silently, but appeared out of nowhere when he finally sensed another part of this mysterious inheritance. To think that it was in the Continent of Muspelheim, no less…

"Calm down, he's a friend." I laughed a bit. "Remember Zero? The guy from the Demon of Dungeons inheritance?" I asked my family.

"Ooohh… Right, yeah." Benladann nodded. "I think I remember a bit."

"Who is this guy?" Miranda didn't remembered at all.

"He looks funny…" Benladra said.

"Nn." Kate nodded.

"Hah, your daughter has sure grown big! I remember the first time we meet; she was a tiny baby being carried over her mother's arms!" Zero laughed. "Anyways, I have been simply managing the Dungeons, as I was made for that by my Master. But it seems you've finally reached a second inheritance out of the three there is!"

"So it is that, huh?" I crossed my arms. "But can you explain why it is so twisted?"

"It seems that.. something happened to the Inheritance Guardian…" Said Zero. "I cannot sense his will, or I would had already communicated with him. My knowledge is limited, but these ruins… It reminds me of what the Demon of Technomancy could do. It might be possible that the second inheritance was made by both Master and his friend."

"T-Two Demons?!" Tyrannus and his warriors panicked. "So this entire thing was made by the Ancient Evil Demons that spread monsters and chaos around the world?!"

"T-This can't be!"

"The barrier is a result from them…"

"No…"

"Calm down for a bit!" Emerald sighed. "You really believe they were bad guys? Mom always told me they fought to protect the world! Don't believe whatever dumb story people say. Mom is so old she was present when it all happened, are you going to trust her or some baseless rumors?"

"Well, they aren't certainly just rumors, the lies about them being the bad guys has been spread everywhere, while they praise Oberon as their savior." Benladann said.

"When the thing is, the roles are inverse. The Demons were actually good guys, and Oberon was the bastard that tried to destroy the world." Miranda said.

"I-Is that… true?" Tyrannus was amazed. "If such ancient beings as dragons are saying so… Perhaps, it might be the real story."

"Such a revelation…"

"Well, it doesn't change anything even if we know…"

"But still, have we been fearing the good guys this whole time?"

"I feel guilty…"

"More importantly…" Zero pointed out. "You can't get past this door, it is… sealed with not just a mere barrier, but a Dungeon Dimensional Walls. There's a distorted Dungeon Dimension there, created by both the Core, the Guardian… and something else. Whatever they were trying to make, it ended very badly."

"So we can't get there at all?" Miranda asked.

"Unless you can break through dimensions." Zero laughed.

"Maybe I could try, but the attack would be so devastating it would destroy the entire ruins…" I had to think carefully about this. "What else could we try then…?"

["How about you try using a Dream Dungeon Seed? It helped on opening Aquarius Dungeon even if it was sealed, and it could help arrange the distorted Dungeon Dimension in there, where that beast might be hiding…"]

"A Dream Dungeon Seed, you say?" I wondered. "That might be… a good idea, actually."

FLAAASH!

Ding!

[You've exchanged 300.000.000 Divine Power!]

[You've created a [Dream Dungeon Seed (S+++ Grade)] x1!]

A floating Dungeon Core in the shape of a seed materialized in the palm of my hands, overflowing with purple and pink smoke-like energy, distorting space around it.

"T-That's it! With the Dream Dungeon Seed, it might be possible to enter the Dungeon by creating something of a bridge!" Zero said. "A genius idea!"

"And if that's really a distorted dungeon dimension, its distortions might stitch together with the dream dungeon's powers." Belle appeared above my head in her tiny fox form. "Give it a try!"

"Well, the original idea was from the System. But sure, let's give it a try…"

I quickly pointed the seed into the metallic gate, everyone seemed tensed up about what might happen. With just a bit of divine power imbued into it, it immediately took root, expanding its roots across the entire area, which seemed to be made of pink and purple crystals instead of wood.

FLAAASH!

The power coming from the other side of the gate started to condense and create a bridge with the powers of the seed, in just mere seconds, a huge, pink-colored portal materialized in front of us, leading to this strange space.

"It really worked…" Benladann was amazed.

"So? What are we waiting for? Let's get in." Miranda said.

"Adventure!" Benladra was excited.

"Another dream dungeon…" Kate seemed to be looking forward to it.

"Uwahh… I've never seen something like that!" Emerald said. "Uncle Drake, just how strong are you to create a dungeon thing?"

"Dungeon thing? It's a Dream Dungeon, brat." I said. "And well… I've acquired both the inheritance of the Dream Venerable and the Demon of Dungeons, giving me the power to combine their Unique Skills into the Dream Dungeon Seed Creation. It's costly to create though."

"Wow…" Emerald seemed to be slowly beginning to gain some respect for me.

"Anyways, Tyrannus, are you ready?" I asked him and his warriors.

"We'll go no matter what, we came here to see the end of this, and to rescue the people that was kidnaped by that abomination!" Tyrannus roared, his warriors roaring as well. "We'll chase it down to the ends of the world if necessary!"

"Hah, well said." I nodded. "Let's go."

We stepped forwards fearlessly, without knowing what truly awaited us inside of the Dream Dungeon I created…

"IT… HURTS…"

Countless vines started spreading across ancient ruins, metallic wires combining with the plant-like matter.

"IT HURTS SO… MUCH…"

The gigantic aberration's countless red eyes emanated a powerful, demonic essence from within…

"FA… THER…"

The bodies of the ones it had kidnapped were hanging on from the ceiling, wrapped on vines, covered on many flowers.

"WHY… HAVE YOU… ABANDONED ME…?"
