Epic of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System - Chapter 608: Ancestors

In the meeting we enjoyed some food all around, I presented all the food I was able to make to the guests, enhanced by the power of Cooking Magic, everyone grew more and more fascinated about my plates, as they enjoyed everything quite happily. I was happy to see people enjoy what I cooked, and I realized that it might truly be a career I always wanted.

In my previous life I wasn't the best at cooking but I also liked to cook and to see others enjoy my food… maybe that's very childish by itself? But I really liked to see other people enjoy them.

I had mostly done simple food, but people praised it a lot, I had made noodles with tomato sauce and parmesan, there was also with green sauce and white sauce variants, and I had also made grilled meat with barbeque sauce.

There was also curry I had made, using a lot of spices, meat, vegetables, and more, alongside fluffy white rice, it seemed that people really enjoyed that. It appears that curry wasn't something that was invented here yet or something, Yukihime never taught them curry stuff to the winter lotus family? Wasn't she a Japanese Otaku? Sigh…

Well, curry is not exclusive of Japan, all around the world we enjoy it, and my family really liked it back in my previous life, we cooked a lot of it.

"These meals are amazing… I never thought I would taste something as good as my family's own food!" said Thaletus.

"Indeed, this is good, very good…" said Mikohime.

"Well, seeing how everyone is happy eating their meals, I wanted to share some information I have about something quite important. You see… Everyone here knows I can use death magic, right?" I asked.

Everyone nodded.

"Well, that means I can see ghosts and wandering souls if I try hard enough, which also means that I… was able to see the ghosts of people from the past that were still lingering here." I said.

"What?" asked Mikohime in shock.

"People from the past?" asked Thaletus.

"Drake-sama, what are you trying to tell us?" wondered Mikohime.

"Did you see a ghost?" asked Tsukuyomi.

"Not exactly- well yes, it is also you two ancestors." I said.

"EEEH?!"

The entire group gasped in surprise. They took me so seriously that they immediately seemed to believe what I said, well, that makes it easier in my part, but I can't help but feel a bit bad now.

Well, I don't regret taking away their things from the graveyard, I was hungry for some loot back then and I really got stronger out of it, gaining six pseudo unique skills in the process, all of them useful in their own ways as well.

I have to admit it, I am a big collector of treasures.

Maybe because I am a greedy dragon…

The dragon god of greed gave me his divine protection after all.

"Yeah… Believe it. Here they are… you guys can come out now." I said.

The three ghosts then made themselves more visible, which only surprised everyone even more than before. They all looked at the ghosts with surprised faces.

"I am Yukihime the Ancestor of the Winter Lotus Sect." said Yukihime.

"And I am Vasilisius, the Ancestor of the Jade Snake Sect…" said Vasilisius.

"And I am Mikoto, the Ancestor of Winter Lotus' Moonlight Dragons…" said Mikoto.

Heir presences were domineering and big, making everyone in there surprised.

"I can't believe it… It is really like the paintings of her! Yukihime-sama! YUKIHIME-SAMAAAA!" Mikohime began to go a bit crazy, as she kneeled before Yukihime and began to cry as she glanced at her glorious splendor.

"I-Incredible… And their souls are so powerful! I can feel the essence of poison and venom within his very soul, this is the power of our ancestor, a being that has transcended life and death!" said Thaletus.

The two ancestors nodded as they saw their descendants paying their due respects. Although after seeing them acting goofy for so long, I thought I would never see them acting dignified like this, but I was wrong, I guess it depends on which person they're dealing with, they might change completely…

"I am glad to see my descendants, you all look as beautiful as I once did." Said Yukihime with a smile.

"MY descendants, you are all worthy of being called after my family's name, I can see within all of you the power of poison, it has passed down to generations quite nicely." Said Vasilisius.

The truth was, they were both very nervous, and were barely managing to muster any words at all, the two looked like they were completely frozen in time to an extent, which only made it the funnier.

"Come on you two are way too stiff…" I said through Telepathy.

"I-It is not as easy as you believe!" said Vasilisius.

"I-Indeed!" said Yukihime.

"Hahaha! And these are your ancestors. I found them one day when I wondered around your sects, it was near the graveyard, I think. It seems that they noticed me and realized I could see them, and since then they had stuck with me. They had grown stronger as Ghosts, and helped me defeat the Dark Shadow Sect's Vampires, so you guys should be grateful that they protected your sects as the good ancestors they are." I said.

"Oooohh! Yukihime-sama, Mikoto-sama, even as ghosts, you fought so bravely to aid us in surviving and avenging our sect from the malevolent villains?" asked Mikohime.

"Erm… Yes, we helped." Said Yukihime.

"Killing those Vampires was not easy… But we worked hard." Said Mikoto.

"A-Amazing, mother!" said Tsukuyomi.

"M-Mother?! I guess… you could call me mother, yeah." Said Mikoto.

"We worked hard to protect our families against those demons, and we did a good job at that! Even after death I won't be defeated! Hahaha!" laughed Vasilisius, it was clear he was nervous by how much he was pretending to be cool.

"A-Amazing, Vasilisius-sama!" said Thaletus.

"All praise your old and venerable ancestor…" said Zephyr.

The Jade Snakes began to pray to him…
