Chapter 95: Living Ice Fortress, Fuyu!

Yeah, the fortress can talk!

I mean that Split Souls had no personalities, but they can develop one.

They also kind of hold knowledge and memories of my own, but are virtually different as they were emotionless until now.

The Ice Fortress is still developing its personality and emotions, but it seems to be a chill guy… or girl?

Interestingly enough, my Kin Command Skill works on it, so I can more or less force it to do my bidding! Heh…

Well, not like I need to.

"Yeah, I can speak… Well, I was only born last night, so I am still developing my sense of self," said the Ice Fortress.

"Oh okay! I am glad to have another person to speak with! Ah! N-Not like I mean that it is bad with only you, Drake…!" said Benladann.

"But if you said it then you make me think you intended to say that and now you're apologizing…" I said.

"Geh…"

"Anyways, I still have no name…" said the Ice Fortress.

"Ice Fortress is a nice name, right?" asked Benladann.

"Sorry for being so direct with you, but that name sucks," said the Ice Fortress.

"…You're right," sighed Benladann.

"Okay, I will pick up the name… How about Fuyu. It is Winter in j.a.panese," I said.

"Oh, sounds good to me!" said Benladann.

"Fuyu might be acceptable," said the Ice Fortress.

Ding!

[You've named the [Ice Fortress Golem (Rank 1 Upper Stage)] as [Fuyu]!]

The moment I decided on the name, the system showcases that it has been named through the Naming Skill.

And indeed, just as it said there, Fuyu has a Mana Core.

Indeed! Even Golems need an artificial Mana Core to use magic and also as their core for their existence within their material bodies.

And Fuyu's Artificial Mana Core is within the compartment where I saved up all those dozens of Mana Cores.

The moment Fuyu was created, all the Mana Cores merged into a larger one, Fuyu's Mana Core.

It fills the entire Ice Fortress with its own Mana, but it is more like a Battery, and it needs my supply to store more Mana. Well, it can still produce pa.s.sively, but not as much, and not enough. This is why I need to charge it with Mana as if it were a battery.

Yuki and the Wolves watch as the ice fortress speaks, they are still quite terrified, but after I named it, something strange occurs, it is as if they suddenly recognize as one of them… Maybe because they're also named?

"Very well then, today is the day, right? Let's go pack everything in the cave here then… I am so happy you created Fuyu, Drake… It will be nice to carry a comfy home everywhere we went to… Thank you," said Benladann, as she hugged my front leg.

"Ah, well, I made it for you more than anything, I am glad you like Fuyu. But now that it is a member of our group, let's treat it as an ally as well," I said.

"Of course! Wait here, for now, Fuyu!" said Benladann, as she ran back to the cave with me.

"Of course, not like I can move… Oh wait, I can!" said Fuyu, as it began to use its wheels to move around, albeit the trees get in the way so it can only go in circles within the empty s.p.a.ce where it was.

While I carried a lot of furniture and stuff from the cave using wind magic and moved it inside of Fuyu with the a.s.sistance of Benladann.

I decided to check Fuyu's status through my a.n.a.lyze, which converts all the capabilities and strengths of a target into a status window similar to my own, although they are not 100% accurate, they are very close to it.

…

…

Fuyu has more than I had originally expected, it has several unique Abilities I've never seen on anyone else and which I wished I could have. I seriously want some of them!

It seems that most of its capabilities emerge as Abilities, even the Runes I set on it capable of floating by using wind magic appears as an Ability, I wonder if this might mean that it could become a part of its own power.

Maybe I should imbue new runes on it, some that could constantly fire Ice Projectiles so it becomes a flying fortress that can attack from far away!

Wouldn't that be cool? But the thing is, making Runes takes a toll on me, it really is very complicated… So I am kind of evading it.

But I will get to it.

Fuyu, however, already comes with an offensive spell with "Icicle Spear" so it is not completely defenseless.

"And it's done!"

As most things were carried inside Fuyu, we ended up looking over the empty cave as emotion bubbled inside of our hearts.

We had spent over a month in here… and well, there are already many memories that we made.

Perhaps it is little time for some people, but for us, it is filled with various memories.

"It feels kind of weird to get out of here… I was getting used to this place for so long…" sighed Benladann.

"I think the same… We have gathered many memories in here, but let's keep making more together as we explore this world," I said, rea.s.suring Benladann.

"Drake…" Benladann glanced at me with a gentle smile, a very beautiful smile.

"Yes… Let's keep building memories together and… Let's survive together…" she said, as she hugged my arm again.

Ugh, I wish I could be smaller to hug her better… To feel her warmth…

Sigh…

"Alright. Now, let's get going," I said, as Benladann walked at my side, and we said our farewells to the cave.
