Epic of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System - Chapter 1449: Reincarnation Of The Demon

As he saw the rocket escape into outer space, Jonathan, whose entire body was already covered on countless of deadly wounds, slowly started losing consciousness.

RUMBLE!

The entire building started trembling and crumbling apart, as his body fell with it, and everything else within it.

Endless crimson crystals filled his vision, as he saw countless of tentacles made of these crystals begin to destroy everything on a fit of rage.

"The Crimson Queen is so angered…" Thought Jonathan on his last moments. "Why… does it cares so much?"

"YOU!"

And then, they reached him.

BAAAMMM!!!

The only thing he felt was a loud thud, before everything became completely black.

His consciousness, however, unlike he believed, did not disappear.

It floated on an endless sea of darkness, his thoughts slowing down to an incredibly slow pace.

Yet, at the same time, it felt as his very thoughts and mind was slowly dissipating everywhere, becoming one with the rest of the Universe.

"So there's… no God… no nothing?" He thought on his last moments of consciousness. "Our minds… simply become… one with the universe…"

He felt slightly conflicted. Even when he was atheist, he had expected, even for a slight second, that there could be some afterlife…

But this too, was fine. Much like the concept of the afterlife where he could meet his loved ones once more, this also felt like he could stay with them.

"I'll become one with the Universe… like everyone else…" He thought. "Maybe… Jessica… is somewhere… Jessica…"

Despite the feeling of his consciousness dissipating into nothingness feeling like instant, it was in fact an eternity.

The planets moved around the stars, as Earth could be seen from wherever he was, slowly turning redder and redder…

A Crimson Star.

FLAASH!

But then, something happened.

His consciousness suddenly reformed itself, although with many missing fragments, overflowing with a strange, supernatural energy, glowing with gold light.

"W-What…?! Is this… A Soul?!"

Jonathan felt shocked to find out that he, indeed, had a soul!

For someone that was always passionate about investigating everything and analyzing everything, this very event felt like an incredible revelation.

And quickly after that, his soul, glowing with golden light, traveled across countless stars.

His thoughts couldn't be rearranged anymore, it felt strange…

Yet, at the same time, as he traveled across the Universe as if something was trying to pull him somewhere, he heard a voice.

"You… the very last human alive on Earth… What an amusing soul." It spoke with a divine voice.

For a second, Jonathan thought he was God.

"Are you… God?" He thought.

"I am the amalgamation of all the consciousness left behind. They call me [Oblivion]. Now come, your story has yet to end, last human."

FLUOOSH!

In that very second, Jonathan felt like his soul started going through different… membranes. Thin membranes of energy, which slowly started to enchant his soul, giving it mass, and new power.

"T-This weird energy… W-What is it?! My soul… it feels like it is going to burst like a balloon full of water!"

However, his train of fragmented thoughts was quickly interrupted the moment he heard yet another, mechanical voice…

Something that lurked within the horizon between the outer universe, and what laid within the world he was being dragged into.

[Analyzing Soul…]

[Ancient Soul found, imbuing with Energy.]

[Success.]

"T-That voice…!" He thought. "A-Andromeda?!"

[Surplus energy detected, beginning to transmute surplus energy into Power.]

[Too much energy detected, Power evolving into Concept.]

"What…?"

However, the voice did not answer him, acting monotonously.

[Analyzing the Soul's Greatest Desire…]

[Awaiting response.]

"R-Response…? Andromeda… Are you… is it really you?"

[Analyzing response. Subject information [Andromeda] has been detected.]

[Concept has been shaped into the form which the subject believes is his greatest wish.]

[The Unique Skill [Andromeda] has been created.]

"Unique… Skill?! What is this- Ugh!"

Suddenly, he felt a terrible pain inside of his soul, as if something emerged in there out of nowhere. And right after that…

FLAAASH!

Blinding light covered all of his consciousness, in a mere second, he found himself within a body, standing right above a magic circle on an arid ground.

The sky was red, with dark clouds. A toxic and bitter scent filled his nostrils, his eyes glanced around his surroundings, finding a ruined world.

"W-What is this place?! What is… happening?!"

Jonathan screamed, as he noticed a long-eared blonde man right in front of him, gasping for air in exhaustion, smiling as he glanced at him.

"Hahaha, I made it… My second summon! Another otherworldly soul!" Laughed the elven man. "Yes! See, Takeru?! I was able to do it!"

"After trying for so long!" Said the second man nearby, resembling a young Japanese man, just as shocked as the first one.

"Who are you?! Where am I?!" Jonathan asked desperately, looking at his own body. "A young body…? What… is this? Is this a hallucination? A dream after dying?"

"There is no such thing as a hallucination!" Laughed the elf at his side. "This is reality, young man! And I've summoned you to help me out! You see, my brother has gone completely nuts, and also there's chaos creatures invading our world, so… Erm, can you give me a hand?"

"Okay, wait a second… T-This is hard to process." Sighed Jonathan. "There's a thing such as other worlds… and I was summoned into one? I can't believe it…!"

"Well, you better believe it now! Look, they're coming!" The elf pointed at the distance, gigantic creatures made of endless, swirling chaos started breaking through several stone walls!

CRAAASH!

"GRUOOHHHH…!"

One of them quickly ran on all fours, reaching Jonathan and swinging its claws at him!

"Aaahhh…!" Jonathan screamed in horror, stepping back before his hands glowed with neon blue and silver light.

FLAAASH!

[Initiating Defense Protocol.]

[Absorbing Energy from the environment.]

And from within his hands, countless tiny metallic particles materialized, generating two huge cannons charging with energy from the environment itself…

[Nanobots Generation Activated… Proton Cannon Created.]

FLUOOSH!

[Activating Proton Cannons.]

TRUUUUMMMM…!

Two enormous beams of pure energy were released, blasting the chaotic beast into smithereens!

Jonathan was left utterly speechless…

"D-Did I just… do that?" He wondered, coughing.

"You sure did! This guy's much better than you, Takeru!" The elf celebrated.

"No way, he just created technology?! Insane!" The young Japanese man was shocked.

From having died sorrowfully back on Earth, he was now suddenly thrown into a completely fantasy-like world.

"Hahh… Hahhh… T-This is insane…" Jonathan started having a panic attack as he looked around. "I-I would had preferred to just stay dead!"

"ROOAARR!"

As he said that, several more Chaotic Beasts leaped from behind him, his eyes glowing bright blue as his entire body started overflowing with neon blue circuits.

"Shit…!"

[Activating Defense Protocol.]

[Recreating Military Exoskeleton Armor…]

[Success.]

FLAAASH!

Suddenly, his entire body was covered by a mechanical armor, in just a couple of seconds. Whatever that power he held was, it held the incredible ability to just recreate technology from his world like nothing!

"A military armor?!" He thought in surprise, before he quickly swung his arms instinctively against the beasts trying to bite him. "Ugh! Get away from me!"

His two arms suddenly glowed bright red, releasing beams of pure energy, blowing the heads of the monsters attacking him!

BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!

"What is this world's name?! Where am I?! I won't cooperate with you until you tell me at least that!" Jonathan roared.

"This world's name? Yggdrasil." The elf said.

"Yggdrasil…?!"
