Reborn As A Ghost: Time To Build My Undead Army!

Chapter 691  Confronting A Divine Frost Dragon!

-----

C L A A A A S H!

Gigantic claws emerge from outside of the walls, as a creature covered on shin silver and clear blue scales resembling crystals set its golden eyes into the city. It quickly entered the battlefield, opening the walls furiously and freezing everything on its path.

"ROOOOOOOAAAAARRRRR!"

It roared with a ferocious, terrifying roar so similar to Brunhild that it sent a chill down the spine of all the dwarves. They immediately knew this monster wasn't an ally unlike Brunhild. And that this… was also a being similar to her.

"You're a Dragon?!" Brunhild felt shocked, her eyes met the ferocious beast in front of her.

It was a gigantic Ice Dragon, his entire scales were covered on ice crystals, it had two enormous wings over its shoulders, and four strong and muscular limbs, with sharp claws capable of shredding through anything, just as they shredded the already destroyed walls and opened them even more than before.

The Dragon had two sharp golden eyes, and a long ice horn growing from his forehead. It was slightly smaller than Brunhild, and less regal-looking, yet it seemed intelligent and conscious, glancing at her back, and not stepping upon meeting her eyes…

"I knew it! I felt something within the outside and came down just to see what it was… To think there's a second dragon within these mountains…" He spoke with a tenebrous and rather malicious sounding voice.

"You're an Ancient Dragon." Brunhild felt surprised. "I've lived here for so long yet I have NEVER seen your face before! Who are you?!"

"Heh, of course you have not seen my face before!" Laughed the Ice Dragon, his golden eyes glowing brightly. "I am an even older Dragon than the ones that settled down in these mountains. I was once given the task to protect my goddess' dungeon, but was betrayed by the very gods and sealed with her treasures. M y name is Valkoinen, the Embodiment of Blizzards, and former Servant of Lady Skadi, now, I serve the Frost Queen!"

"Valkoinen?!" Brunhild finally remembered this dragon's name once she heard it. The dragon's origins went from the very ancient times where Gods stepped over the world.

Skadi had three Dragons that protected her, they were her children, which she adopted from their mother, the Primordial Ice Dragon, Nifl. Amongst them, the youngest was Valkoinen, the Embodiment of the Blizzard. It was said that he was given the task of guarding her Castle and her riches from any intruders, be it enemies or allies.

Yet… once the Age of the Gods came to an end and the Gods and Titans War finally concluded, Skadi went to the Heavens, leaving the Dragons behind. What happened with the other two is a mystery to Brunhild, but she knew that Valkoinen was the most loyal, staying inside of his master's castle for eons, waiting for her, only to never return.

Eventually, once the Era of Chaos happened and the War God Tyr fell and became the Evil God, Chaos and Miasma spread around the world and created Dungeons… The hidden Castle of Skadi ended turning into a dungeon, trapping Valkoinen inside.

Brunhild easily connected the dots, quickly realizing this powerful Ancient Dragon must have been unsealed from his eternal prison inside of Skadi's Tower Castle after the Frost Queen acquired the Crown of Skadi! This Dragon, even as weakened as he is now after being sealed for so long, would still be strong enough to compare with Frost and Zero, even without holding any Divine Artifact.

"I am one of the Frost Queen's Frost Generals. And I have come as the backup plan to make sure this city is destroyed even if Zero and Frost fail to do so." He said with a powerful voice. "Now, move aside! I am not here to fight my kin. If you retreat from this battle, I might even tell my Queen to make you one of our allies."

"What?!" Brunhild reacted with even more irritation, holding on Nyx with her giant claws.

"Think about it! Don't let your stupidity cloud your judgement." Said the Ice Dragon. "Why would you want to protect these pathetic vermin, lower than insects? They're nothing to care for! Once we finally freeze Midgard, and then the entire world of Yggdrasil, the Gods themselves will have to recognize us, we might even become Gods as well! Don't you realize that it is futile to fight against my Queen?! The Fimbulwinter, the Eternal Winter, will consume everything!"

"I never thought a Dragon… My own kin, would ever say such insane words. I thought wrong. I always imagined other Ancient Dragons would be wise and have some brain cells like I and my brother do… But I suppose I was completely wrong." Brunhild sighed. "Valkoinen! Have you not forgotten that you're a Dragon?! By doing this, you're going to betray our own family! Remember the Dragon's Will, our Primordial Mothers!"

"I don't give a damn about that!" Valkoinen roared back, freezing his surroundings. "My mother abandoned me and I was raised by another damned woman that abandoned me just the same as her! Do you truly believe I care about the "Dragon's Will"?! I am my own person, and I… will do as I please!"

F L A A A A S H!

Valkoinen unleashed a powerful, freezing aura around his body, shaking his surroundings and bringing an incredibly cold wind everywhere, blizzard filling the city!

"If you stand in front of my path, then I will tear you apart with my claws! ROOOOAAAAARRR!" Valkoinen had no intentions to reason with Brunhild, leaping ferociously towards her and swinging his claws against her face!

S L A A A A S H! S L A A A A S H!

"[Draconic Arts]: {Infernal Dragon Meteor}!!!"

Brunhild's fists were engulfed by infernal dragon flames, as they reached Valkoinen, clashing against his attacks and generating countless shockwaves of Flames, resembling falling meteors!

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLAAASH!
