Epic of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A Systemchapter 791: a truth that is hard to accept!

There was something strange going on since this "dream" started! Drake discovered he wasn't even in a dream and was inside of Fafnir's Divine Realm. Later on, he learned he was in fact… his father?! And now he was talking a bunch of nonsense! Drake wanted a break but the overbearing emotions inside of his chest were bubbling a lot. He still kind of hated Fafnir so he wasn't going to easily accept him as his father anyways!

"You brat, you're not going to accept me as your father?!" Asked Fafnir.

"My name is Drake! And no, do you think I am just going to begin crying and hug you or something? Also give me proof of what you're saying being truth." Said Drake. "Mere words or the name thing won't do… Do you got some images of it? A recorded video or something?"

"What? Do you want me to show you how I made you with Nifl or something?!" Asked Fafnir angrily.

"Not that, you degenerate!" Roared Drake. "But… you know? Some truth… some information? More details? Sigh… Alright, let's sit down and talk… Also, you can bring me back to my home after this, right?"

"Yeah I can, you will be sent back automatically, my power can only bring you her forcefully for an hour or so, so after a few more minutes, you'll go back automatically, GRYAHAHA! Don't worry!" Said Fafnir. He quickly sat down cross-legged in front of Drake, as the two, father and son, looked at one another in silence while contemplating things and even life itself…

Drake wanted answers, and one of them was…

"WHY DID YOU ABANDONED ME?!"

Drake grabbed Fafnir's chest with his claws and began shaking him like crazy! He was furious because the damn Fafnir and his mother abandoned his egg in the middle of the continent of giants to boot! Couldn't they at least leave him with his siblings or something? Why just completely dropped in the middle of nowhere?!

Fafnir was taken aback as he almost fell into the floor, and quickly pushed back Drake a bit farther from himself. He sighed and decided to tell him the truth.

"It would had been impossible to raise you on our own, son." Said Fafnir. "It wasn't because we were bad parents, Dragons pride themselves on raising their children, we are strong family, we protect one another. A mother dragon would kill anybody that dares touch their eggs or pups… But things couldn't be the worst when it happened… Around 130 years ago, when your mother laid your egg."

"130 years ago?! You mean I had been inside my egg for that long?!" Drake asked in shock, feeling completely flabbergasted by the number given to him by his father, Fafnir!

"Yes! Stop being surprised about everything, you blockhead of a son!" Said Fafnir, smacking Drake's head with his tentacle-tail.

SMACK!

"GUAKH…!" Drake cried, as he looked back at Fafnir angrily, he wasn't the best parent if he went around hitting his son so leisurely! …Well, not like he didn't beat the shit out of him just some minutes ago, so it could be said it was slightly fair.

"Anyways! Don't you want to hear what I have to say or what?" Asked Fafnir. "As I said… Your mother, Nifl, and I, 130 years ago, were going through difficult things. Nifl had given birth to various children through the ages, the Ancient Ice Dragon Gods had all mostly perished in the war against the Chaos Entities. We meet many years later, she was desolate and alone, heartbroken, and I gave her company… At the end, she decided to have an egg with me. We thought we would be able to raise you as a new ice dragon god, that could protect the people of this world for the future ahead… In fact, since she laid you that she felt there was something very special about you… Perhaps you were the first ever dragon with the soul from another world! Due to that, your power was incredible!"

"T-That's… so you know I am from another world? Don't you feel its weird? Like… I took over your actual son's body or something?" Asked Drake.

"What? No! That egg already had your soul, there was no other soul before, so it is of course yours! What sort of nonsense are you talking about?" Asked Fafnir while raising an eyebrow.

"Ah, well… Nothing, never mind." Said Drake.

"Well, as I said earlier, you were a child with a great destiny, the moment your egg was laid, there was a golden and white aura around you, it was an aura of Fate! This is something special that only a few have when they're born, it meant you are destined to change the world as it is." Said Fafnir. "This is why I was so proud of you! You've grown so strong! You make your father happy!" Fafnir began to act weirdly soft, trying to hug Drake.

"G-Get off me! Don't get weird now, old dragon!" Said Drake. "Continue… what happened afterwards? Why did you abandoned me if you had the intention of raising me together?! What was there to fear? You were two Ancient Dragon Gods!"

Fafnir's face grew darker as he looked at Drake.

"If we raised you, it would had meant that you would had been taken away from us eventually!" Said Fafnir.

"Eh?!" Asked Drake.

"The moment you were born into an egg, your Aura of Fate was too strong! It spread through the world… those weak enough didn't realized, but those that were strong enough, learned our coordinates. Not even half an hour happened and the damn remnants of Oberon and several servants of some of the Venerables gathered around our area… they wanted you for their nefarious purposes… Because of that, we gave you to a small Ice Wyvern that your mother had created using Summoning Magic, and sent him off! He was actually so weak and small that nobody noticed him as he flew over the ocean all the way to Jotunheim, the place they would had least expected you to have been sent… After that, we battled almost to death."

"T-That's…"
