Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System-Novel

Chapter 1710  Refine The Ascendancy Law!

-----

After almost sacrificing everything I had, everything that madeso strong, and everything that madewho I was, I was finally done.

My ultimate magnus opus, the core of all, my Ascendancy Law, made from everything I've ever used in battle, my core abilities, my core divinities, and the greatest divine treasures I could find.

"It is done…"

FLAAASH!

The Ascendancy Law was finally completed, reaching the size of five kilometers of height and length, a beautiful circle glistening with silver and blue color.

It unleashed countless lightning sparks and thunderbolts from its body, hitting the ground and the skies, making everything tremble and rumble.

I had grown so weak after all of that that I could barely move towards it.

"It is finally done! Drake, you must now refine it! And do it quickly! If you let it be for too long, it will explode and kill you and destroy all the things you sacrificed!" the Ice Queen said.

"What?! Why didn't you say so sooner, dammit!" I screamed, as I saw a giant thunderbolt reaching towards me. "Fuck!"

I unleashed all remaining powers I had, creating a barrier of several types of flames, yet as much as I tried, ice didn't respond to my calling anymore.

BOOOM!

"Ugh!"

The barrier shattered into pieces but somehow managed to protect me.

"Hahh… I am not going to give up, FUCK!"

I kept flying rapidly, summoning the last powers I had not used, winds surged, my body becthat of a mighty fire dragon.

Thankfully, most of the fire elemental powers remained, I could use all of those!

RUMBLE!

Yet this time, dozens of thunderbolts rushed towards me.

"Agh, no!"

I conjured as many barriers as possible, all of flames, yet they shattered and exploded right away, the flames and the thunder hitting my body and burning me.

"Uuaaagh!"

I felt my skin and my flesh being burnt to a crisp, I protected myself with my arms, and they quickly becuseless.

"Hahhh…!"

And they weren't recovering anymore, the damage remained, it was still there.

Fuck, I have to hurry, or I'll seriously fucking die!

"RAAAAH!"

I charged with all my might as I covered my body with flames.

The thunder kept rumbling, hittingconstantly.

My body was undergoing endless agony, the auxiliary divinities I had left tried their best to help me, as if they had suddenly becalive.

Yet they were all being shattered, yes, they were being destroyed by this thunder!

The Ascendancy Law I created was tremendously powerful, it was capable of even destroying my own divinities.

BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!

I rushed, swimming through endless thunder and agony, my body, as giant and mighty as a divine dragon as I was, could not hold so much longer.

The healing factor of the Flames of Beginning, my only healing ability right now, was barely doing anything!

"Drake…! Y-You can do it!"

I heard her voice, System!

"Please… hurry!"

Of course, I'm coming!

Wait for me…!

BOOOM!

"Ugh?!"

I saw my legs disintegrate into ashes.

"No!"

I kept moving forward.

BOOOM!

Another thunder hit my arms, both gone, turned to ashes.

"UUAAAAGGH!"

I kept screaming, rushing closer and closer, the Ascendancy Law's power ravaged my body.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

"N-No…! Drake… DRAKEEE!"

System cried as she saw my body falling apart, half of my lower body completely missing, my guts hanging out of my body, my wings… the only thing I've protected.

Half of my face was burned, showing my bones, both of my eyes had melted.

I looked horrendous, didn't I?

But I couldn't stop, I was so close.

"I'm… almost there! Wait… WAIT FOR ME!"

"Drake…!"

"I will give you the body you want…"

"Ah!"

"I will make you into the woman you've always wanted to be…"

"Drake, wait! You didn't have to-"

"And I will make sure that we live together, that you get to hug your daughter!"

My burning body, after being endlessly punished, finally reached the Ascendancy Law, and its radiance absorbed my entire body completely.

FLASH!

"Ahh…!"

I felt like I was suddenly melting, my entire body disappeared, and only my weak soul, without a psyche, remained.

An endless sea of pure light was beginning to consme.

"Wait…! T-This is…!"

Even when I finally reached it, if I'm weak enough, it won't accept me?!

How is this…! This is ridiculous!

I see now.

I finally get it.

I see why there are so few Venerables across all of history.

Most of the Gods that ever tried doing this died, didn't they?

"Hahah…"

My soul started to dissolve…

Was it all… for nothing?

"DRAKE!"

Yet her voice resonated amidst the endless sea of light.

System- no, Andromeda appeared by my side.

She hugged my soul tightly, without letting it go.

"Don't die, Drake!"

"Andromeda…"

"Don't leave me!"

She started crying as she saw my existence fading away.

"I won't let you die! I love you… I love you so much!"

"Ahh…!"

"You're everything to me! You're my sun and my moon! You're… You're the most important thing in my life!"

"You too… You too!"

I hugged her tightly, as our emotions and our souls melded together once more.

The endless light of the Ascendancy Law interior no longer burned me.

It embraced me.

She did this, didn't she?

FLAAASH!

The entire Ascendancy Law changed color, becoming silver, then white, then gold…

And then pale blue.

I was refining it…

I was doing it- No.

I wasn't doing it myself.

She was there, she was helping me.

Just like the first day, when she was there to help me.

Without her, without my precious Andromeda, where would I even be?

I owe her everything, perhaps.

"Even now, you're helping me…" I laughed, as I saw her bright, beautiful eyes.

"Of course… We're together in this, right?" she smiled gently.

And she kissed me, the refinement ended, as the entire Ascendancy Law started reducing its size, until it becas small as a finger ring, and entered the depths of my soul.

FLAAASH!

The power of all the divinities, divine abilities, and the divine treasures fused into my very being at once.

Alongside something else, the true Law I had created and forged- no, that we created and forged.

My body fully recovered, regenerating from nothing.

I felt as if I had been reborn anew.

I've beca Venerable.

And my Ascendancy Law…

Without a doubt, it is the one and only.

"The Ascendancy Law of System."
