Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System Chapter 1757 The Second Trial Has Ended!

Chapter 1757  The Second Trial Has Ended!

-----

Upon Surtr's arrival with his party, things had already calmed down and cooled down anyways. I had to explain to him that everything was done. Its not like I ever counted on his help in that fight, I knew he was far away on his own things, but I suppose he did see it from afar.

"We saw a huge black dome that stretched into the sky, and everything was trembling and rumbling!" Jamar said, the little Myconid boy had grown very strong, but remained as small and cute as always. "Kaboom! Baaam! Kachaam! And then it disappeared."

"We were slightly worried as we raided the Labyrinth, so we came running to see what happened," Nadia sighed, crossing her arms. "It's good to know that you won, but it seems the battle was not without its many struggles."

"I'm relieved you're alright though! But even if you get any wounds, please tell me… I am not a Saintess of the Fire Dragons for nothing after all," Mina said. "If you got any problem just leave it to me!"

The twins were dependable as always, they were good wives for my disciple. If I had to be honest, this boy barely deserved them, they are just too good.

"Thanks for coming here for us though," I said. "For the next stage, we might actually need your help this time. So I hope you can help out if possible. Surtr, and everyone else."

"Sure!" nodded Surtr. "We'll do our best to help as much as we can! And count on me against Pandemonium, master! I've grown plenty strong as of now, and I'll only grow stronger with the rewards of the second trial."

"Is that so? Good!" I nodded.

"Yes, by combining my own System created using my Unique Skill with your own System Status, I can now level up twice! It constantly boosts my stats, and my skills are developing rapidly," he explained. "Pretty amazing, right?"

"S-So you have two systems now?" I muttered.

"That's right! Hahaha!" he laughed.

This d.a.m.n kid… even when I finally got the power to level up, he still surpa.s.ses me with double level ups?!

Well, his first "system" is still the Draconic Records, kind of like a divine construct that only his unique skills can maintain.

But even then, it's really ridiculous.

"For now, all of you come to eat with us. Also eat demon meat, to strengthen your resistance against it. You have yet to completely perfect the resistance ability."

Thanks to my cooking divinity, I was able to give everyone resistance against demonic energy by feeding them demon meat.

And on our last battle, we got a large amount of reserves as Pandemonium summoned tens of thousands of demons against us.

We had completely emptied our reserves beforehand, when we were training, and I was growing stronger. But now we had plenty to eat.

As we feasted, celebrated, and more, I felt that my powers grew stronger over time, I was regaining my essence too.

Ding!

[Divine Cooking Arts (SS)]

A Divine Ability tied with the user's experience and learning about the subject of Cooking, which has surpa.s.sed normal mortal and magical levels and has ascended to an incredible level of divinity, the first to have ever existed in the world of Yggdrasil.

It comes with several Abilities which are unlocked over time with each Rank, aiding at the act of cooking all types of dishes with all sorts of fascinating ingredients. The more the user cooks, makes new dishes, and makes people happy with them, the stronger their power over their Divinity of Cooking becomes, and so all derived techniques.

Oh? An oven this time, and Sea Flavors! That'll really increase the quality of products. These Divine Seasoning Spells actually not only enhance seasoning, flavors, and so on, but also quality and grant specific buffs to the food and those that eat it.

But that wasn't all, I felt the power of Cooking surging within me from an even deeper form!

Something was swirling, something was ALMOST awakening.

[You have developed the [Auxiliary Divinity: Divine Gourmet (S)]!]

[The power of this Divinity resonates with the [Divinity: Divine Cooking (SSS+)]!]

[The power of a mysterious Law is beginning to blossom within you…]

[Once you reach the Next Rank of your Ascendancy Law, you will be able to further expand into this mysterious Law as a secondary Circle if you met all requirements.]

"Aha!"

This was more than I imagined!

Wait, so I can make an Ascendancy Law of Cooking?!

Even though I sacrificed the Divinity of Cooking to my Divinity Core of the Law of the System…

I guess "sacrificed" is not the real word here, the Divinity is clearly still there after all!

Amazing.

This is one of the few more interesting abilities of mine, especially because it can only increase its Rank and power on its own.

It means that it is something constantly evolving…

"Alright, now that we're done eating, shall we resume our monster hunting? Let's get to Level 100!"

After eating and filling our bellies, we decided to resume our hunting, there were still hundreds of thousands of divine monsters everywhere after all.

"Alright!"

"Yeaaahh!"

"Let's do it!"

"Let's grind some levels then!"

Everyone cheered.

We spent the next 9 hours hunting nonstop, gazing every corner of the battlefield and trying to find more foes to slay.

If only Pandemonium could summon his demons! It would be even easier.

But he wasn't even here anymore, he had moved all the way to the trial entrance, and with my eyes I could clearly see him…

"Zzzzz…"

He was taking a nap very relaxedly, what the h.e.l.l?!

He's really confident he is not in danger, huh?

He's looking down on me like that.

But I can't do much right now, it's not like he's completely wrong either.

Just you wait.

[The 12 Hours have pa.s.sed! The {Second Inheritance Trial: Treasure Hunt} is officially over!]

[All partic.i.p.ants, please move to the entrance of the trial with all your gathered treasures.]
