Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System Chapter 241: Against Shadow Crows!

Chapter 241: Against Shadow Crows!

-----

After eating the Delicious roasted Ogre, we continued our journey across this beautiful forest. I didn't get any skill because to get skills I must consume their Mana Cores, the flesh does have mana if it is fresh, but this one wasn't fresh and had been roasted for a while.

Nonetheless, this Ogre Warrior was pretty good, I honestly can't wait to taste the Giants. The Ogre Warrior had tender meat after being roasted for a while, the fat it had given it a nice juice, and the flavorful juices went well with the pork-like tender meat. Even the bones were tasty, and they had tasty bone marrow on them too.

Now, enough of talking about food.

"Phew, that was so good! I feel refreshed." Said Benladann.

"Let's go kill the other monsters now, we are still on the first floor, I don't want to spend too much time in here. So let's hurry and do a speed run." I said.

"Speed run?" sked Benladann.

"Well, it's when you do something very fast and efficiency to finish something at time record."

"Alright, let's do a speed run then!"

Everyone seemed to agree, as they followed me from behind, I rushed towards our next targets, which I had detected beforehand, a large flock of Shadow Crows which were currently attacking a group of Hobgoblins led by a few Ogre Warriors!

I sneaked into the scene by converting into slime and digging underground.

And then, as the parties were fighting, I transformed into a dragon.

BOOOOOOOMMM!!!

The entire earth shook as the ground cracked open, I surged from within it and began using all my strength to slash them all into pieces.

SLASH! CLASH! BOOOM!

"CRAAAA!"

"GGRRYYAAAAA…!"

"GGRUUOORR…!"

I managed to crush around four Shadow Crows right away, ending splattered over the ground. My tail acted as a deadly spear as I pierced the goblins and ogre warriors' heads and killed them right away, and the power of my magic created a giant storm of ice and wind, blowing away everything around for the rest to pick up easily.

Benladann began to battle two Ogre Warriors by herself, as she used her Chaos Magic to fire spears of chaos, piercing their bodies and then detonating them into explosive bombs of magic!

BOOM! BOOM!

"GRRUUUAAGGH…!"

The two ogres were one-shotted, Benladann-chan is way too overpowered!

The Shadow Crows who were more intelligent caught up to us and began to meddle into shadows, shaping them as projectiles and firing them against me.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

The explosive shadow spears were not so painful, but they were quite annoying, my scales were strong enough to take them no problem. I decided to fight by creating giant phantom tentacles and using them to enter into the shadows.

"Surprise."

"CRAAA!?"

Yeah, they were surprised. They don't know that their own Shadow Storage Ability can be abused because it creates a pocket s.p.a.ce open for anyone who can enter it, so I just used my phantom tentacles and caught them, entangling them with my soul and crushing them as a boa constrictor would do.

CRASH! CRASH! CRASH!

I threw the corpses away as I began to imagine KFC made with these giant and meaty crows, if the rule for monsters applies with them too, then they're probably the tastiest birds we will ever eat.

Monsters are filled with mana when they're born in dungeons, so their meat is actually not bad but incredibly rich in flavor. Even a creature as ugly as a hobgoblin, an ogre, and so on are tasty due to this.

"Come on, there are more of you out there, right guys?"

I continued to take more crows, five more came out, one of them emanated a stronger presence and actually cut down my phantom tentacle with his beak.

Oh, a Rank 3?

"CRAAAAA!"

The angered Shadow Crow rushed towards me with fury clear on its crimson-red eyes, its wingspan was around 5 meters, it was a ma.s.sive bird.

"Huginn, Muninn, come join me."

I asked the two ice crows as they flew at my side, they were killing some moribund hobgoblins.

"CRAAA!"

The Shadow Crow cried once more as it flew towards us, firing feather projectiles. The difference between a Rank 2 Shadow Crow and a Rank 3 Shadow Crow was clear in just its presence alone!

"I decided to use my own powers more interestingly. I had already eaten Ice Crows before, so why not become one?"

FLASH!

I used Body Transformation and became an Ice Crow, modified to my own liking, it gained scales and horns too, and it was around double the size of Huginn and Muninn, my body being over 5 meters tall.

I rushed towards the Rank 3 Shadow Crow with the twin crows, as I impacted with the Shadow Crow and began to slash its body with my talons. Fighting like a crow was really unique, I had to keep flapping my wings or I would fall, but I just used wind magic to keep myself afloat.

The twin crows came from both sides of the Shadow Crow, I worked as the tank, as the twins' user their Light and Darkness Dragon Marks to suddenly coat themselves in large auras of darkness and light, each one shining differently!

FLASH!

Their power was enhanced by a tenfold and so did their bravery, the Shadow Crow couldn't move properly as I was grasping it with my claws while it slashed on me, I didn't mind getting wounded, my body could regenerate easily after I acc.u.mulated a lot of energy.

CLASH! CLASH!

Huginn and Muninn used their elemental power to put the Shadow Crow in danger, damaging its wings and then its head, they used their sharp beaks to tear it down.

I let it go as it fell over the ground, the twins tried to kill it as it tried to fight back, but ultimately, my crows were the ultimate victors!

The Shadow Crow laid over the floor motionless, it was a strong enemy for these twin crows.

"You guys had gotten pretty strong; I'll make sure that you get to Rank 3 soon."

"Craaa!"

"Croaa!"
