Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System-Novel

Chapter 1607 Drakda's Strength

-----

Kate was reluctant about taking it easy, so she unsheathed the sword I made for her, the [Divine Mechanical Longsword Of Technomancy: Electra] and clashed against the Knights with her full physical power. I hadn't realized before, but this was a perfect opportunity to let them learn some fighting skills aside from just blasting everything with magic or dragon breaths, I suppose I hadn't thought deeply about it.

Benladra gained quite a lot of insight from her battle, and Kate too. The Dark Knight Dragonoid used a different strategy against her. Half of them flew from above and attacked her head and wings, while the other half remained below and started targeting her ankles.

Their strategy was simple, they wanted to take her down by hitting her weaker spots. However, to their surprise, Kate's body was incredibly tough. Because of her nature as a Technomancy Dragon, her body was almost completely metal-like.

Most of their attacks were unable to harm her soul, bounding back before her mighty metallic body. However, they still managed to damage her as they clashed. Kate was rather clumsy in close combat battles, and this was perhaps the reason why she insisted on having them now.

In between sweeping them with her long tail, crushing them with her leg's claws, biting them with her sharp fangs, and clashing against them with her giant silver-colored sword, she was slowly gaining the upper hand.

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

Her attacks were becoming more precise, her analyzing abilities were almost on pair with the System, her mother. She had immense intelligence, memory, and analytic abilities, almost like a computer in such regards.

She started mimicking the knights' techniques, using them against them. When three of them attacked at once against her, she would quickly give a step back and then use her strength and speed to clash against them, hitting the floor instead of them and blowing them away with the impact's shockwave.

BAAAM!

After that, she would quickly pick them up one after another, piercing their bodies with her spear-like tail. This worked well for her until the end, where she managed to crush the last knights with a combination of brute force and sword slashes.

"I-I did it…" She sighed in relief. Even though she won, she had sustained some damage in her soul.

"Well done!" System said. "But you got yourself all wounded, Kate!"

"It's fine, I gained a lot of experience in battles." Kate smiled. "It'll be useful from now on…"

"Let me heal you then." I smiled, as I quickly used my own Soul Ether to fill the areas where her soul had been wounded. It was like giving her small bits of my own soul, but it was within the level of degree I could afford.

FLASH!

"Ohh, my soul feels stronger now?" Kate wondered. "Thank you papa."

"It's nothing, well done!" I smiled. "Alright, whose next now?"

"RAAR!" Drakda stepped in to fight.

"Oh it's Drakda's turn!" I said. "Miranda you're last then?"

"Yeah, I chose the last because I want to be in a good condition if something happens to Drakda." Said Miranda, looking at the Knight general in the distance. "That boss is really pretentious too; I don't like him!" As she complained, the battle between Drakda and the 21 knights started.

"You can do it son! Hit them good! Use your tail and claws! Bite them off if you may!" I cheered.

"Don't be afraid to use all your magic! Kill them quickly without taking damage if possible!" Miranda said.

"RAAH!"

The Dark Knights charged towards Drakda as we began growing increasingly worried, yet the boy, despite looking all surprised and innocent, quickly moved to fight. Moving much faster than we imagined, his entire body was suddenly encompassed on a shroud of darkness… and void!

FLASH!

Suddenly, he disappeared completely, reappearing behind the entire squadron in another second, with an explosion of darkness. His three heads opened their jaws vicious taking away three knights and tearing them into pieces with a few bites before droppinng their corpses into the floor.

"GRAH?!"

The Dark Knight Dragonoids suffering didn't end there though, they immediately attacked him, only to hit an endless sea of darkness which then twisted around their arms, breaking them apart.

"RAAARR!"

Drakda appeared within the darkness again, this time summoning over a hundred blades and spears made of divine blood energy, which fell down over his foes, impaling and destroying their armor, weakening them all severely. Some died on the spot too.

The Knights defended as they could, but Drakda kept using his amazing abilities to overwhelm them. And when they finally broke through his darkness and hit him, they noticed an armor made of chaos was protecting his soul.

"SHAAAH!"

With a furious hiss, Drakda opened his jaws again, releasing a triple chaotic dragon breath, blowing the rest of the knights into smithereens.

BOOOM!

Indeed, the boy was strong.

"It's over already?!" Kate gasped.

"W-well, it would have been fast for us too if we didn't let the knights have a fairer fight too!" Said Benladra.

"Still, my son's pretty strong, haha!" Miranda laughed, as Drakda walked out of the barrier to greet us and receive praises.

"Well done!" Benladann said.

"That was amazing!" Miranda hugged him.ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novelenglish.net . Firᴇ(.)nᴇt

"I-I am quite baffled." I was still trying to process what I saw. "So those are his abilities, he can use them so seamlessly at such a young age, is this what some call Talent?"

"It should be, yes." My grandmother nodded. "Your boy is incredibly talented from the get-go! He already knows how to abuse his powers too, almost by instinct… He'll become a formidable dragon in the future."

"Heh, of course he will!" Miranda walked into the barrier to fight the knights; it was finally her turn. "Alright, let me finish this quickly."

She turned into a sea of Mold and engulfed their entire bodies with it. Using her tentacles and jaws spread through her slimy body, she crushed, twisted, and tore through the Knights bodies, killing them in less than 30 seconds.

"That was so easy, haha!"

As she laughed, and before we could even congratulate her, the Knight General stood up. And then pointed his sword at one of us.

The sword was being pointed not to me, or Benladann, or Miranda, not even my daughters.

It was pointing at Drakda.

[The [Phantom Dragonoid Dark Knight General] has chosen his opponent!]
