Epic of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System

After finishing the FIRST floor of this damn dungeon, we continued after taking a quick break of half an hour.

Each floor was simply an extension of this biome, and they were connected by a single staircase that led downwards, when you reached the next floor, the stairs were still there, resembling a tower that connected with the sky, quite bizarre.

There were no particular changes in the environment of the dungeon nor any of that, although there were things such as lakes and rivers too, which sometimes came with surprises such as giant Catfishes, all of the Rank 3, mind you, and deadly Thunder Eels, also Rank 3. They were interesting monsters that zapped me a lot, but I caught them and killed them. Eating them roasted was advised, with a lot of sweet sauce, but we saved them for later.

The monsters barely got any stronger and remained within the same ranges of power, we continued rushing through the dungeon at a fast pace. At some point everyone got pretty tired except me and Benladann, so we just began to steamroll everything insanely.

I put everyone over my back as we flew into the skies of the dungeon and I began to completely wipe out the releasing powerful breath attacks using my Death Magic and Ice Magic combined, generating phantasmal flames that froze everything. An entire forest laid frozen before me, and Benladann used her strength to cut down the monsters and throw them at me, so I saved them inside my Inventory.

The next floor was the same, but this time I decided to bathe the place with magic projectiles, just showing off the might I had and the extent of my full capabilities.

The rain of magic projectiles resembled the judgment of a god, quite literally, I bathed everything with constant explosions, the entire forest was devastated.

Damn, I can just do that, huh?

It cost a lot of mana though, even Benladann was left with her eyes wide open. I think my power level might already exceed my current Rank; I could probably fight it off against someone of a Rank higher… Though I am not too sure about what Rank 4 Magus are capable of. The only Rank 4 in here is the Sect Master, the mysterious Lord Ice Moon, which I will try to befriend in the upcoming days, if possible.

After ravaging the next floors, Benladann wanted to try out what I did, and she began to expand her Chaos all across her domain around her and infuse it into her axe, the power was like pure darkness, and overwhelming. She used it to release several slashing attacks consecutively infused with this pure Chaos. The results? The entire floor shook as the trees were sent flying, explosions happened everywhere, even little blackholes surged in the spatial walls as her chaos consumed them, it was catastrophic.

The monsters were also slashed apart, many of them were even disintegrated. But after doing this, she felt pretty exhausted and needed to rest a bit. We called this one an "Ultimate Chaos" move of hers, which she should only do in emergencies. She still needed to train her Chaos some more before mastering it. It was a very dangerous and powerful attribute.

As we continued through the dungeon, we finally reached the final floor, and it was simply the same as the previous one, but with some variations in the structure. There were two large lakes where giant catfishes rested.

There was a large Catfish King and Catfish Queen at Rank 3 Middle Stage, the two monsters had crowns on them. I tried to freeze the entire lake where they were and that killed their weaker members, but the King and the Queen resisted my freezing power and jumped out of the ice. They began to fight against me directly, throwing powerful water magic which resembled vortexes of water or spiraling spears of water, they also used earth magic, being the first dual-wielding monsters I've met.

They were a deadly duo, they cooperated greatly and even boosted each other's powers, Benladann helped me out with them, and then the rest of the guys atop my head bathed them with attacks to support me

They bathed them in attacks, but the two monstrous creatures were pretty resistant, they even had scales similar to dragons, for fuck's sake. Were they actually turning into water dragons?

I gathered Death Magic within my palms and released several onslaughts of phantasmal flames against these two, their bodies were resistant, but my death magic could seep through their flesh like a deadly venom. I used this power to damage their souls as we exchanged attacks, my breath attacks also affected them a lot, but they came back with powerful vortexes of water. The two fought while swimming in midair through the Air-Swimming Ability they had.

They even fused water and earth and generated Mud Magic, which was interesting as they used it to create a moldable slimy mud to entangle me and trap me in place, but I broke through it with some more force and used my claws to fight.

My tail also worked well, I popped their eyes with them and made them more furious but also made them lost their sense of sight, Benladann attack, however, she could, her axe infused with Chaos was powerful and explosive, blowing off pieces of their bodies apart. While I continued to release my breath attack, slash, bite, and pierce with my tail.

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

Our battle continued for minutes, these bastards had come out of nowhere, but they were clearly superior to anyone in their species. They were taking my blows like nobody's business and Benladann's chaos affected them but not enough to destroy their own elements.

However, I constantly used Death Magic to drain them out of their life little by little, while using my other abilities and Benladann's amazing assistance, they began to struggle at long last…

At some point the two released a last roar, as their power was concentrated into their foreheads and combined together into a gigantic catastrophic storm of water and mud, falling over us before they died. They really wanted to take us with them…

Wow, that was actually quite the challenging fight, but we managed to pull out almost barely.
