Epic of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System

Alucard begged for his life to his son, Sangre.

Memories of his entire life flowed through his mind.

The things he did to survive, those he killed, those he created, and the things he built.

Back then, he thought of himself as the supreme being.

He was happy, and free to do as he pleased.

Yet the curse of Lifespan given to all non-divine beings in this world was supreme.

His lifespan began to fade, even as much as he tried to extend it, he could not extend the limit of it.

[Fate] laughed at his face, as the Yggdrasil Tree's Will, after thousands of years, finally managed to defeat him.

By making him die out of old age…

However, he had a plan, dividing his soul into pieces, crystalizing them and sealing them, so the Divine Will of the world could not detect them and destroy them.

He sealed himself, entrusting his family to one day revive him.

His plan was now flawless, but it wasn't impossible either.

Yet… even when he was several times about to grasp such a future where he could be revived and once more gain his freedom, he had it all taken away from him from Red, and then Ruby, and then Drake.

And now… from all people, his very son, Sangre, the Vampire Dragon.

As the sole survivor of his Ancient Family due to his Divine Dragon Body, which gave him an endless lifespan, he survived through several Eras by holing himself up inside his Divine Realm.

But now, after eons, he finally decided to act, and without even doubting it, he betrayed his father.

Sangre! Please… Don't do this! I am… this is my last soul fragment, my last piece of will!"

Alucard continued begging for his life, as all of his entire being dissipated.

The memories, his emotions, his personality…

"For the good old times… Nnnggh…! Please… my son!"

He continued begging, something he never thought he would ever do.

Yet here he was, he begged because he knew there was simply no other way.

He was cornered, at long last.

"Aren't we… family?"

Alucard valued family above all things.

His only hope was for Sangre to remember him as his true father and decide to forgive him for his misdeeds.

But Sangre was simply… not like him.

"Family?" Sangre asked mockingly. "We've never been family."

"W-What?! But…!" Alucard cried, trying to struggle.

"You stole me from my mother… You corrupted my egg with your putrid blood… and then you enslaved me as your eternal servant. You made me into a mad beast that slaughtered countless people until I lost all the sense of self I ever had… I lost the love I could had received from my true family; I lost the happiness I could have enjoyed… I had nothing but bitter memories of being your damn slave." Sangre said, filled with resentment.

"It's your fault that I've lost all attachments to life… to people… And you're wondering why I cannot forgive you? You don't deserve it, even if I was more empathetic." Sangre said furiously. "Farewell, father- no, Alucard."

Alucard's saw as the eyes of his "son" looked at him as if he was nothing but despicable garbage. He never grew attached to his ways, nor anything at all, he always hated him… and unlike his other servants, he wasn't even giving an afterlife, as his soul and everything that made him what he was… was devoured.

"Y-You can't do this…! YOU CAN'T… SANGRE…! SANGREEEEEEEEEEE!!!"

The desperate scream of Alucard echoed across Sangre's soul, as his very will slowly dissipated.

He was swallowed into an endless darkness, as the last bits of memories he held passed through his disintegrating mind.

From amongst all of those that served him, from amongst all those that he fought, from amongst all those he meet.

Who?

Who was someone he remembered with a smile?

There… should be something.

His memories continued passing through, as they slowly disintegrated.

And then…

A gentle smile emerged within such memories.

"Are you okay? Your body is covered in bruises and cuts…"

A girl with long, blue hair and pointy elven ears.

"Have you felt better? Huh? Your name is Alucard?"

A calm and serene gaze, filled with purity.

"Don't worry, even if the sunlight hurts you, you can stay at home in the day. I'll look up for you."

Her kindness… was the only one he ever received through his entire two lives.

"Thank you for hunting those monsters, you saved the whole village from a disaster… I can't thank you enough, Alucard…"

Her honest emotions, her feelings, it was all so pure and beautiful.

"I… I also like you."

Her smile and her love… genuine.

The only genuine love he ever experienced.

"Don't worry, even if you're different… I still love you. I won't go anywhere… I don't care what others might say."

Her beautiful heart, was the only thing he wanted to protect.

"Ahahah! The sky looks so beautiful from up here! I didn't knew you could fly!"

Her smile filled with innocence and hope, her shiny and beautiful golden eyes…

"I am different too… My hair color, and my eyes… I was born with a curse that saps away my life in exchange for magic power. But this power… Is not something I can control."

She was different, like him.

"I hope we stay together forever…"

She wanted him at her side, forever…

Yet…

Yet…!

"I… I'm sorry…"

Her body filled with bloody wounds, and her eyes fading away from the last light they held.

Brutally killed by those that feared her when he went out hunting for the people he had protected this entire time…

Because they though she was a monster.

"Please… Promise me that… you… you… Won't kill any more people… Alucard…"

He made a promise to her, which he ended breaking due to his own fury, his own resentment.

The only chance he had to redeem himself, was taken away from him.

It was that day when he lost everything as well.

"I remember her now… The only person that… Truly loved me…"

His soul faded away, and so his will.

But his eyes flowed with tears of regret.

"I'm sorry… Lily..."
