Epic of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System - Chapter 229: The Dream Land's Chall

These three former slaves, they seemed somehow special for Belle's life. But who were they? They just came out of nowhere.

Were they destined to meet her?

The three guards rushed at us without waiting for us to say anything else, two of them released their magic attacks, flames and winds came towards us, forming a deadly vortex!

FLAAAASH!

"Shadow Release!"

The Night Elf suddenly released a bombardment of shadow from her entire body, as if the entire place was shrouded in it!

BOOOOM!

The shadows reached the attacks from the guards and they were easily neutralized.

She said the truth, her magic was indeed amazing!

"Ueggh…"

However, right after, she fell over the ground, tired.

Don't tell me she used all her mana?!

The two guards were left speechless, but they still could fight.

The Black Cat-kin man took a dagger from the ground that belonged to one of the guards I killed previously, as he overcharged it with lightning, his element, and fired it towards one of the guards!

FLAAAASH!

"Eh?! UAGH…!"

CLASH!

The sagger hit his face and pierced through his nose into his brain. But it didn't stop there, the overcharged dagger exploded, blowing off the entire head!

BOOM!

"Oho! I haven't gotten rusty!"

How did this guy got enslaved?! Maybe he was blackmailed into it?

"Y-You damn beasts!"

The two remaining guards reached us as the bull-kin man charged with the shield he grabbed on the way, infusing it with stone and rocks, he pushed forward into the enemies and crushed them into the ground!

BOOM! CLASH!

"GGRUUAGGH…!"

"S-SO STRONG…!"

He seemed to be able to enhance his body strength with magic.

I jumped into action and killed the guards while they were dizzy from the impact, they took head-on.

We made it!

BOOOOOMMM!!!

"Eh?!"

Suddenly, a man with long red hair, blazing orange eyes wearing magus clothes emerged into the tent, burning everything with endless infernal flames.

"You beasts seem to think you actually have the right to fight back against us, humans? Despite knowing that we are the superior and dominant race of Midgard? Foolish beasts, is not belonging anywhere something that you cannot comprehend?" asked the man, his entire body emanated a powerful aura of flames…

Rank 4!

He was a Rank 4 Fire Attribute Mage, he could blow us into ashes in an instant!

And I am still in control! I have to somehow… win against him?

"This place is as much our home as it is for you, humans!" roared the Black Cat-kin, enraged.

"There's no point talking with him, boy, he's a human supremacist, you cannot speak with these idiots…" said the bull-kin man.

"Let's escape while we can, we are strong together, but we cannot possibly stand a chance against a Rank 4 Magus!" said the night elf.

"Kukuku, you're not going anywhere!"

The man with red hair released a deadly bombardment of explosive fireballs towards us. His mana seemed completely endless, he continued to attack us without end, the bull-kin man created several walls of rocks, pouring all of his mana into it, each wall was melted into magma due to the incredible intensity of the fire.

We managed to run away, however, but he was tailing us from behind at an impressive speed, shrouding himself in flames and flashing like a living meteor!

How the fuck do we defeat this guy?!

"Hahaha! You cannot escape! I will burn you and all your filthy kin to ashes for daring to escape! There is no worth in beasts that don't know their place!"

Was he seriously going to burn the entire forest? But the people went through it!

<Drake! The Dream Land is slowly being consumed… I think we have jumped straight into the last scenario!>

What? Do I have to die against him?!

<I don't know, but the dream seems to be fluctuating constantly, there's something, something that will trigger a specific event!>

"He's chasing us down, damn bastard! Leave me behind, I will distract him!" said the black cat-kin.

"Wait, don't! I will do so too then!" said the night elf.

"If he continues like this, he'll burn the entire forest where the people escaped to…" said the bull-kin man, stopping too.

Shit. Alright, let's play the hero.

"You three keep going, I have a special ability that could defeat him… But I don't want you to stay here!"

"What? But you're just a girl!

"SHUT UP AND GO!"

"…"

The three gritted their teeth as they began to run.

"Admirable of you to dare stop me. You're strong for a little girl, despite being a beast, you've reached peak stage at Rank 1 at such a young age… How about this… Become my slave and I will make you my personal guard!" said the man, his charisma was annoying.

"I would rather die than serve you, humans!!!"

Belle roared wildly as the man squinted his eyes.

"Then die!"

FLAAAAAASSHH!

"RRAAAAAA!"

Flames clashed against dream clouds, as the man was suddenly shocked by it!

"Ah? W-What kind of magic is this?!"

"HYPNOSIS!"

TRUUUMMM!

The dream clouds burned through Belle's entire body, she was being grilled alive, but her dream clouds reached the man in time and enveloped him!

Dream was a new attribute that no one knew about, she could even beat those of higher rank with its surprising spells!

"GGRRYAAGGH…!"

The man cried in agony as he was suddenly thrown into a nightmare where he was devoured alive by countless beastmen!

Belle fell over the ground, completely charred alive, while the man's soul was crushed into bits…

I was able to faintly hear the cries of the trio that had decided to come back for her, and then, darkness enveloped me

.

.

.

"AH!"

I woke up, finding myself within the same darkness and pink clouds where I was previously.

"You… did it…"

The fox girl in front of me was surprised.

"You thought I wouldn't be able to? Indeed, being burned alive felt horrible. But I am made tough."

"Hah… Haha… Hahahaha! Unbelievable! You're really something else, dragon! So how was it?" she asked.

"I can't say I liked it… Was that your past? Why show it to me?" I asked.

"Because it is part of my inheritance… Now, time to wake up- Oh, someone has been healing your soul all this time… Here's your gift."

The fox girl gave me a little pink jewel.

"What is this?"

"You'll see when you wake up."

I blacked out right after that.

And when I woke up, I found myself inside of my room, inside of Fuyu.

Benladann was tenderly sleeping at my side, sitting over a chair.

Ah… I am back… How long did I sleep?

That dream… truly felt like I lived years in there.

FLASH!

Suddenly, pink light emanated from my chest, slowly moving, and positioning itself right in between my chest and my stomach. This essence, this pink essence… felt very familiar, like something I had seen and experienced in that dream.

What could it be?

I felt… something crystalizing within it.

What… is this?

A gift of a Venerable of Dreams…

Ah!

Wait… Don't tell me…!

Ding!

<You've created a [Dream/Illusion Attribute Mana Core: Rank 1: Initial Stage]!>

A third Mana Core!
