Epic of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System
Chapter 1997: New Demonic Equipment-----
Tyrannus looked into the distance, beginning to panic as he saw hundreds of more Divine Monsters approaching from the distance, among them there was a large swarm of the same Rank 10 snails that almost killed Amehia.
Those monsters were overwhelmingly powerful, capable of easily defeating most gods that faced them. It wouldn't be an understatement to say they were "prehistoric relics" of ancient times, when dragons and titans roamed the world and hunted monsters to sustain themselves.
Back then, these monsters, facing such powerful predators, had to rapidly adapt and became increasingly more powerful. Most Rank 10 Monster belong to ancient lineages that have existed for millions of years after all and were the prey of ancient dragons and titans.
Now, realizing their natural predators no longer roamed this continent, they were beginning to get comfortable with the idea of taking over everywhere they wanted and eating as much as they desired.
"Hey, Emerald! There's more monsters coming here…! Do you think we can take them on?!"
Tyrannus was worried, he had already fought so much and wasn't able to even defeat a Rank 10 monster. His limit seemed at Rank 8 monsters, and perhaps only on one-on-one battles, anything where he was overwhelmed would end on his likely death.
The same might be for Amehia, her Geomancy was strong but there were limits to what she could do. Unlike the rest of Drake's allies who had cultivated and been gods for much longer than them, and unlike Surtr's allies who possessed special Titles given by him that gave him a apart of his powers, Amehia and Tyrannus had none of such things.
Even though they were now Gods around Rank 8 and went through intense training of their Divinities with the help of the Ice Queen and the Fox Venerable, there were still limits to their powers and abilities that could only be overcome through more cultivation, which required time and resources.
"Are you seriously asking that, old man? Of course we can, stop acting like a coward!""O-Old man?! Coward?! Y-You've never treated me in such a way before…!"
Out of nowhere, Emerald treated Tyrannus like shit, making him utterly shocked.
"Wow, you're so cool, Emerald! I've never seen you acting this brave…"
As Tyrannus tried to process he just heard, Amehia was in awe over his new "cool side".
He glanced at his own daughter in disbelief, unable to believe she was acting this way.
"A-Amehia?! Why are you rejoicing like that, he treated me badly…! I'm your father! Shouldn't you be upset?"
"A-Ah! Eh?"
Amehia wasn't even paying attention to her old man, her big eyes were concentrated solely on Emerald and only Emerald.
"I-I'm very sorry! I didn't intend to say that it was my alter ego, he's very rowdy and doesn't hold back with his words…! I respect you very much, father-in-law, and…!"
"Tch, enough with bootlicking that useless old man already! We don't have the time either, idiot."
As Emerald was trying to apologize, his alter ego spoke and stopped him, quickly glaring at Tyrannus and Amehia, and placing them on the floor.
"W-We're not escaping, Emerald?" Wondered Amehia.
"Of course not, we're fighting! Why wouldn't we fight? We're cleaning this entire damn place off these beasts. And it'll make you two grow very strong as well. After all, we have access to Drake's System right? You need to Level Up, I don't want weaklings by my side."
"W-Weaklings?! I've been training so hard to catch up with everyone, you know?! It hasn't even been a year since Drake and everyone else got here, before that we were only mortals!" Tyrannus kept complaining to Emerald. "And what's gotten with your attitude?! I liked you when you were nicer!"
"I'm so sorry, father-in-law, I wasn't-"
"Shut your trap already, old fart! Now stand still, I'll give you more power, so use it well and don't you dare be a weakling anymore!"
He spread out his palms and released the power of his Abyssal Winds and Infernal Flames, rapidly combining them with the Celestial Heavenly Winds power to transform into divine metal.
FLUOSH!
And then, through their combination, he rapidly crystalized and outfitted both Amehia and Tyrannus with brand-new divine and demonic equipment, nicely covering most of their body, made almost entirely out of the crystallization of these powerful energies, overflowing with immense power.
The armors looked made of red crystal and black steel, with gold strikes here and there, it looked sharp and heavy, covering Amehia and Tyrannus bodies nicely and adapting to their body types. They even gained new weapons, Tyrannus obtained a giant pair of black and red axes, and Amehia a powerful staff to amplify her magic powers, alongside what resembled to be a grimoire, but made of crystals, even the pages were made of demonic crystals.
"A-Amazing! What's this?!" Amehia was shocked. "I feel so much stronger out of nowhere too! Armor? And weapons! So cool!"
"Incredible, the previous equipment you made for us cannot even compare to this!" Tyrannus said. "And it is overflowing with demonic energy? But we're not being affected negatively either…"
"It has been forged by crystalizing my powers and also adding a few thousand demonic souls inside. So even if it breaks, it can regenerate on its own by eating monster souls. And of course, it can give you even more power by devouring more souls…"
"W-We made it specifically thinking about your safety, and also to boost your power and strength against these strong enemies we're about to face! With them, you should be several times stronger, and even more as you Level Up and absorb Souls with your weapons…!"
"Now, I don't like being interrupted or annoyed while I hunt, so we're doing this on our own, all three of us are going in a different direction. I'm charging forward, Tyrannus, you go to the left, Amehia, to the right, you stay close to me though."
"V-Very well then…! I'll have to trust your judgement, Emerald… But I am still confused about what you have become now…" Tyrannus sighed, preparing for battle.
"Okay, dear!" Amehia nodded with a cute smile, making even the ruthless alter ego felt embarrassed as he glanced at her smile. "I'll trust you!"
"H-Hmph… Then let's begin."
