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

And that moment was just now, as we were having a picnic in the gardens, specifically speaking an area where there is a large concentration of small trees and there is even an artificial river with fish we had just introduced, Benladra was playing with the plants, picking up flowers to gift to her mother, and that's when it happened.

POOF!

"Uwah?!"

Suddenly, her tiny hand touched another flower she was going to pick up, but suddenly, a glowing light of yellow and green color emerged out of her hands, flashing through her surroundings, and being absorbed by the plant she touched.

FLASH!

The light encompassed the plant which then spread to many grasses around, and all of them combined together and began to grow crazily, constantly entangling with one another and scaring Benladra who was left with her eyes wide open as she glanced at the scene.

"M-Mama… Papaaaa!" she cried in fear, as a massive Plant Monster suddenly emerged, it looked like several grassy vines entwined together with an enormous, red-colored flower on top, which suddenly opened and showed an enormous jaw with sharp teeth inside, and a long tongue leaking a slimy saliva-like dew…

"GRYYYSSHIIEEEE…"

The enormous plant monster suddenly opened its jaws even more grotesquely, as countless vines spread all around Benladra, attempting to grab her!

Of course we were not going to let that happen.

In a second, we moved at full speed in front of our daughter. Benladann held her tightly with one of her large and muscular arms, while her other arm held her axe, imbued with her chaos magic.

Meanwhile, I touched the plant with my finger, and it suddenly froze into an ice statue.

CLAAASH!

With a swing of Benladann's axe, the entire thing was slashed into countless tiny pieces, turning into a pile of icy dust.

Everything was alright now.

"Sniff… Buaaaaaaahh! Waaaaahh!"

Benladra began to cry out of the scare she got out of that, as she hugged Benladann tightly, leaving all her chest covered in her snout and tears.

"There, there… What did we told you? Do not use your magic recklessly." Said Benladann.

I walked to the side of my little daughter and hugged her as well, sandwiching her between Benladann and me, we caressed her and kissed her until she slowly settled down and calmed.

I took a handkerchief made out of Ice Fabric and cleansed her tears and snout over her face, until she was as cute as always.

"Everything is alright now." I said.

Benladra's eyes shone brightly as she looked at both of us, she seemed to feel moved by our protectiveness and the care we gave to her.

This time, we didn't reprimand her like we once did before when she unleashed her magic or breath attack, as that would only make her feel more insecure about her own powers.

We had to make her feel secure and that she had parents there for her to take care of her, that she had someone with her despite how scary her powers could become.

We had to comfort her as fast as possible so she could see that there was going to be someone for her.

"Don't worry, dear, everything is okay." Said Benladann.

"Oway…?" she asked cutely.

"Yes, everything is okay, dear…" I said.

"You're very strong, but you have to be careful to not overuse those powers." Said Benladann.

"For now, don't use them, okay? Until you can understand that you're able to use them, until you're capable of being able to be responsible for what you might cause." I said.

"O… Oway… Sniff…" she said. We cleansed the little tears coming out of her eyes as we hugged and kissed her again.

We caressed her some more until she began to sweat a little bit.

"Mmmgh…"

"Oh, I think we are being a bit too clingy now…" said Benladann.

"Y-Yeah, let's leave her for now, let's go eat something, shall we?" I asked.

"Sure. Benladra, want to eat something yummy?" asked Benladann.

"Yummy!" said Benladra, raising her little arms.

We sat her down over the grass and we quickly unpacked the premade food we had prepared beforehand, and we began to enjoy a simple picnic with sandwiches, drinks, and other snacks.

Benladra liked the sandwiches with a lot of meat on them, and she had also begun to like cheese a lot, so I made her a simple mixed-meat hamburger made out of the meat of the Ogres from the dungeon, and I also added fish meat that is very nutritious, the flavor is very mixed, but she likes it a lot, and with some cheese, tomatoes, and onions, she's in love.

Especially if we add some mayonnaise and ketchup, I've made myself as well, which everyone is in love with since I began to sell it off into the sects, with the introduction of more fast food from American recipes such as wieners made of the "bad parts" of meat, which are sold cheap and are tasty if served with bread and these two sauces.

"Nom… Nom…"

The delicious and juicy meat filled her cheeks, as she devoured the hamburger with a few bites, and swallowed it all, afterwards, she drank some sweet fruit juice, and asked for another hamburger.

"Hambaga!" she said.

"Another one? But you already ate one dear…" said Benladann.

"Waw…" she said.

"You ate that one way too fast, how about a small sandwich this time?" I asked, giving her a sandwich. She quickly picked it up and began to snack on it more slowly now.

Hamburgers were simply way too great for her, she felt like she was eating something way too good, so she had a hard time containing herself while eating it, which makes it hard for her, very hard, so it is understandable that she cannot contain herself when eating something so tasty.

"Is it good?" I asked.

"Wes! Yews!" said Benladra, as she began to drink some tea, and then grabbed another sandwich from the big pile we made.

It was a nice evening, and in another sidenote, we were getting closer to the marshlands and the Orange Forest Duchy. We could already see it from the distance.
