Epic of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System - Chapter 1478: Surtr's New Divine We

The Venerable of Flames could had chosen to simply not give them rewards, but he actually wanted them to get as strong as they could, even more as he knew that Surtr's special ability could be what could bring them all to victory against Pandemonium and his mysterious companion.

FLAAASH!

In front of Surtr and his friends, dozens of red and golden colored ingots appeared, alongside bottles of divine blood, and even red-colored crystals shining with divine and blazing brilliance.

"These are the materials they got as rewards?" Surtr wondered, admiring their incredibly high quality. "Amazing! So these are the materials that Master used to create his Divine Hammer Hephaestus!"

"Are these Fire Titan Blood Elixirs?!" Nadia asked.

"Amazing… And so many!" Mina said.

There were dozens of bottles of these Elixirs, which they were given all to these two and Leona and Agni. Drake had shared one of these bottles with them before, but it was a diluted version of it.

Even then, that mere diluted potion caused them to gain tremendous new bloodline powers, and now that they got dozens of bottles of the full elixir for themselves…

The Fire Giants could truly awaken into Fire Titans now!

"Fire Giants are the children of the Fire Titans." Said the Venerable. "I was the last Fire Titan in the world, but because I was half-titan, I was smaller than my ancestors, but taller than all giants. When I grew up at my teenage years, I was over five meters of height… And when I became an adult, I was eight meters. You might have been born as mere Fire Giants, but if you drink these elixirs made with my own blood, you will awaken your ancient lineages. Drink them, you'll need all the strength you can get."

"Thank you for your help!" Surtr said. "We're going then!"

The Gates opened in front of them, as the entire group walked away while the girls immediately started drinking their Elixirs, gaining tremendous power with each drink.

Meanwhile, Surtr started manipulating all the materials he acquired, deciding to make a permanent divine weapon for himself, not a temporary one made using his sibling's souls.

But one like those Drake created!

"It's time for me to get myself a true divine weapon!"

The materials floated around his body as his Heavenly Smith Skill activated, fusing the materials together and slowly making them take a shape.

His blood, scales, horns, fangs, and claws were also added, alongside as much Origin Flames as he could imbue inside!

FLUOOSH!

"It is being formed!"

Surtr watched his creation as everyone else stopped walking, already outside of the Tower, they saw as a Dragon God forged a Divine Weapon.

The skies trembled as the floor below started to rumble, the divine power surging from this fusion of elements and materials was incredible…

Yet it seemed to lack something!

"Not enough… Not yet?! What more do I need?" He wondered. "Ah…!"

Suddenly, the Red Orb Fragment the Elder of the Fire Giant Village had gifted to him flew out of his hands, reaching the sword's fusion.

"Wait! You can't! You're just a fragment, we'll need you to create Lord Logi!"

Surtr tried to stop the Red Orb Fragment, but it was already too late, it quickly fused with the materials as if Logi himself willed it!

"Don't worry, youngling! I will become your Divine Weapon's Pillar! I'll help it become strong enough so that when I fully reincarnate, it can exist even without me."

Logi's voice echoed inside of Surtr, as he realized that Logi's plan was much more throughout and not that reckless! He was going to refine the sword as long as it could before its resurrection, to the point he'll imbue his very powers and imprint it with his soul.

"I see… Thank you so much, Lord Logi!"

FLAAAAASSSHHH!!!

And the weapon was born, a glorious crimson sword descended towards Surtr's hands, its pristine divine brilliance shining brighter than the sun itself!

"A-Amazing…" Surtr muttered. "Your name will be… Gram!"

The sword gave a bright glow, as if it understood its own name, Surtr held it tightly with his hands, its powers encompassing his body, as if he was being covered by a veil of Divine Strength…

And as this happened, a strange sensation reached everyone's guts.

TRUUUMM…!

"W-What was that?!"

Surtr glanced into the distance, feeling unease. His eyes didn't deceive him, as he sensed something odd and strange surging from the Jungles where Drake and company had gone.

"It's Demonic Energy!" Said Nadia.

"Demonic Energy? In here?!" Asked Mina. "But why? And how…?!"

"Don't tell me that bastard of Pandemonium came all the way here?!" Surtr panicked. "Shit… We have to hurry! Let's go!"

Surtr quickly led his party as he flew into the skies, flying as fast as he could towards the area where he could sense an enormous source of Demonic Energy moving…

…

Meanwhile within the Jungle of the Lizardman Alliance Tribe, Drake's party that was left behind to protect it was having a rather boring time.

"Yawn…"

Yuki was yawning for her third time already as she looked at the bright moon atop the night sky. Drake and company have been inside the Dungeon for at least half a day by now.

Although it felt much longer to them, this was because Dream Dungeons internal time went much faster than the outside world.

"Would you stop yawning already? Go to sleep if you're so tired."

Ruby glared at Yuki while crossing her arms.

"How rude! I'm doing my best to keep up and be a good girl! But fine, I guess watching over at night is the better job of you Vampires~"

Yuki smiled, taking advantage of Ruby's goodwill to go sleep somewhere.

"You're as lazy as ever."

Pekora reprimanded her, but Yuki shrugged, without really caring at all…

"Come on, just let the girl rest."

Tisha smiled back at Pekora, suddenly drawing closer to her and grasping her hips.

"If there's not many around we can have more time for ourselves, can't we?"

She gently kissed Pekora's lips, as the rabbit-kin woman blushed.

"H-Hey, you're really getting bold nowadays, huh?"

"Can't really resist it when you're so cute all the time…"

"Geez! You…"

She bit her lips and was about to give her an even more passionate kiss, before Yuki interrupted them.

"It's not like anything is happening, the monster's inside of that dungeon anyways, there's no other outside threat so-"

RUMBLE!

However, as if it were a cruel twist of fate, Yuki's words did indeed bring an outside threat, everyone's eyes quickly focused into the village's outskirts, as they sensed an enormous wave of Demonic Energy coming forth!

TRUUUUMMM…!

This Demonic Energy wasn't coming from a single being, but of hundreds of them marching towards the village at this very instant.

"Demonic Energy?!" Tisha asked in shock, unable to receive Pekora's kiss.

"I-It is…" Pekora muttered. "The Spirits are all panicking as well!"

Suddenly, a group of Warriors ran towards them, led by Larzak, Kraxka, and Hector, who had assembled the village's other warriors.

"Did everyone sense it too?!" Hector asked.

"Demons… those monsters are coming here!" Larzak said.

"We have to defend the village!" Kraxka roared.

Ruby, her mother, and Rakasha were standing on top of the village chief's house, glancing the distance with their sharp crimson eyes.

"Looks like we've got company…" Ruby muttered.

"This is… why are they coming here?!" Rakasha muttered.

"It doesn't matter, we must defend this place!" Ruby's mother said.

The three Vampires, and many other Vampires they came accompanied with quickly started moving, flashing across the shadows of the village and leaping into the walls.

Their Divine Blood Magic and Shadow Magic activated instantly, using Ruby as their "Core", a gigantic Magic Array was formed in a mere instant.

FLUOOOSH!

A gigantic, crimson-colored barrier made of Shadows and Blood Energy was created, protecting everyone from the incoming threat.

"Everyone! Move to the frontlines! We can't let them breakthrough! Or everyone will die!"

Rakasha quickly gave an order, as everyone quickly ran towards the village gates, preparing themselves for what was coming.

"They're here already!"

Yuki noticed hundreds of gigantic and monstrous silhouettes rushing across the Jungle…

And amidst the marching army of demons, an incredibly powerful one commanded them all.

"Our Master's Body Part is located there…" He spoke. "We must secure it at all costs! If he cannot recover his body parts properly, he'll never regain all his powers!"
