Epic of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System - Chapter 1005: The Festival Has Begun! Jo

FLAAASH!

The bright light that Kate gate to the System Core feed it with new life, as the Core immediately connected to the Main System, giving the A.I. within it, the System Voice the ability to quickly realize what had happened.

[Incredible! Your daughter managed to activate the System Core so easily…]

"Did something changed?" I asked.

[Yes… It appears that I've received a lot of new data, things of… my previous self. Apparently, these are a fragment of her memories. And alongside that, there are some strange data blueprints showcasing a new System Function and a new Upgrade…]

"Memories?!"

[They're small, but it'll take a bit of time for me to properly absorb them. If I do it rashly, I might end up getting affected negatively… I am sorry.]

"No, it's fine… Don't worry. And aside from that?"

[These blueprints seem to indicate a way for what I had told you before, the idea I had to share the power of the System with others even more, giving those that became gods the ability to spend divine power to directly purchase their divinities and divine abilities, or upgrade them alongside their Rank.]

"I see…"

[And alongside that, there's something else… A new System altogether… It feels similar to the Job power the mortals that have your Dragon mark have, but even more advanced… Levels, Skills, and even a formula for the extraction of energy from a slain foe as… Experience Points?]

"Oh… Was she thinking about modifying the System to become something more like an RPG system with leveling and all of that?"

[It seems so, but she was unable to accomplish this change due to the lack of divine power… But now, there might be a path towards that. However, we need to gather and activate more System Cores.]

"Got it. We'll do this on our free time once we are done with everything else… For now, let's return outside."

I held Kate's hand, as I quickly felt my senses going back to my physical body. Kate was also there like nothing. And it also felt as if no time at all had gone by. Everyone was just eating as if nothing had happened at all.

Kate looked at me while raising her little eyebrows. It seems she was quite the intelligent girl, quickly deciding to keep what we just did a secret, we didn't wanted to make everyone just become even more concerned than they already were with every other problem out there.

After having our last meal before moving out, we quickly decided to make our groups. I swiftly created a Doppelganger, and left it with Rakasha and the rest, as I asked for Fuyu's aid, and two portals opened outside of the Divine Realm. I had already sent some Slimes near where the Vampires were hiding their small village and created Dungeon Teleportation Traps to instantly get closer to there, without much delay in means of having to travel.

"Then we are off, once we are done with our things here, we'll go support you, everyone." Benladann said.

"Yeah, take care." Miranda said.

"We'll do." Rakasha said, leading most of my allies and friends, as the party that will go against the Vampires was the biggest. Like this, using both of my bodies, we both went our separate directions.

With Benladann and the rest of my family, including my daughters, Miranda, and Benladann's parents alongside most of my monsters inside of my shadows, we made our way into Heaven Port by emerging inside of it through a teleportation trap I created inside the very Inn Room we were staying the other night, which was still reserved for us.

FLASH!

"We are here…" Benladann said.

"Oooh!" Benladra flew into the window, looking around the big city. She had come here before already, but seemed to still miss it a lot.

"Aahh!" Kate also flew into the window looking everywhere.

However, I was fairly sure that girls with wings didn't exist in here, so I quickly told both to walk for now. Of course, they disobeyed me, choosing to sit piggyback-style over Benladann and my back.

"Okay then, I guess we'll do it like that." Laughed Benladann.

"Let's go then, we are almost a bit too late…" I sighed.

We swiftly made our way outside the Inn and into the center of the city, where many food stalls had already begun selling. I quickly placed mine in there in a single second as I pulled it out of my Inventory without a care of the onlookers. After that, I quickly began bringing more and more things, especially ingredients, some of such divinity that many people by merely watching them stood in silence and awe.

"Who is that person?"

"I don't know, another person in the cooking contest?"

"Oh, there it is, that's guy's named Drake… He's a newbie."

"A newbie? Although he got a lot of fancy stuff and even some magic item to store things, if he's too much of an amateur then he won't win this time."

There were a lot of people gathered exclusively to buy food. This was a special occasion after all, many people gathered exclusively to eat and enjoy the day, as this was the Blood Moon Festivity, celebrating the end of the Era of Blood.

"Ugh, I am a bit nervous now…" Benladann sighed.

"Just relax, let me do everything. You just have to smile and serve any new client. We had yet to start doing anything, so for now let's make some curry, curry buns, and why not some risotto too? They're all quick to make." I said with a smile, summoning countless spirits stealthily and beginning to boil the ingredients into a delicious stew-like curry, while the rice was already getting made at the side. I had done this recipe so many times that my hands dexterously moved around automatically as I cut and added all the ingredients necessary.

However, as I was doing my passion, I quickly noticed several stares from not the onlookers, but the other people participating in this contest, especially the nearby stalls, all of them were watching me while narrowing their eyes… Damn, they really do hate newbies here, huh?

And wait a second, is that the same elf I bought the Yggdrasil Branch from?
