[This is the last Trial, Daughter of Chaos. You're also the key on defeating this enmity. For ages, we had been waiting for someone like you, that can innately wield the dangerous Chaos Element. If you can complete the Trial, I shall personally welcome you and give you rewards, alongside the answers you seek, and something else…]
[The Trial shall begin now. Good luck, you'll need it.]
As the Venerable decided to leave us to our own luck, the ground- no, the entire room began to shake furiously. The crystal wall where the beast was located suddenly began to tremble as well, suddenly generating various cracks across the ice. The monstrous entity was somehow awakened. Could this be the Frost Queen lifting whatever Sealing Magic she had put over this monster?
TRUUUMMMM…!
The entire hall began to tremble even more. This enormous tremor wasn't something that would merely be brought upon us by the ice in here cracking. No, this was… probably the pressure of the awakening dragon herself.
Someone that was once the Progenitor of Light Dragons, reduced to a wild beast that spread Chaos. Are Chaos Spirits really this damned evil to do something so vicious? Or, just like the Chaos Spirit that became Benladann's spirit memories showed, they were merely trying to find a place to survive by all means necessary?
Well, whatever questions we have, they'll be surely answered as we defeat this dragon and bring out whatever Chaos it has within itself.
Crack… crack!
The ice continued to crack, quickly making several pieces of the ice shatter away into pieces into the floor. The entire group that was with me began to feel worried about the upcoming battle. I had to keep them alive if I didn't wanted to have any regrets today. I had already buffed them but even then, this might quite possibly not be enough.
Although they gained amazing power through completing the Trials, which allowed them all to reach the pinnacle of Mortal Realm, they were facing a bottleneck that didn't allowed them to Rise into a Divine Core user and become Rank 7, which are already considered within the Realm of Divine.
"System, do you have a suggestion? I had thought about abusing my Golem Creation and maybe Spirit Creation…"
[I had indeed thought about something, your ideas, however, are welcomed.]
[Combining ideas…]
Ding!
[Several Spell formulas have been merged together, the [Divine Ice Dragon Spirit Armor] Divine Spell has been created.]
Divine Spell: [Divine Ice Dragon Spirit Armor]
A powerful Spell that combines the principles behind the Unique Skill [Spirit Creation], the Unique Skill [Winter Magic], and various types of Magic tightly combined with the innate Draconic Power of the caster alongside their desire to protect themselves or their allies. This armor not only grants resistance to all elements, but also to divine attacks to an extent, it also enhances the power of magic and can conduct different elements to gain special abilities and change color.
Cost: 200000 MP, 1000 Divine Power.
Duration: 30 Minutes.
It is not as expensive to conjure as I thought! One point of Divine Power can restore a million MP, so it doesn't matter how much MP it costs! Without further ado, the System helped me at conjuring the Spell on everybody, me included.
"[Divine Ice Dragon Spirit Armor]!"
FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!
In a flash, I unleashed several bright lights which quickly were pointed towards everybody, as the ice cracked and the beast began to attempt to free itself, everybody was suddenly surprised by the enormous armors covering their bodies, which were also easy to use and completely refreshing as well. Not only that, but these armors were carrying the power of their elements within themselves!
"This armor…!" Rakasha asked in disbelief. "It is incredible, and it is making my Mana flow through it so easily!"
"Indeed, this is amazing, Drake…! My lightning is flowing through it and- Uwah! It is golden now?!" Charlotte asked.
"It changes color depending in our elements infused into it." Pekora said analyzing the situation even in this dire moment.
"Cool! I've always wanted an armor of this caliber!" Tisha celebrated.
"I am not into armors at all but this one is pretty decent." Said Yuki.
"E-Even I get an Armor?!" Miranda cried in surprise.
"Yeah, even I do as well!" Belle celebrated as she had a smaller armor of ice over her fox body.
Crack… crack!
The ice continued cracking, as the suspense and tension continued to rise. We took out our weapons, infusing them with Mana or Divine Power.
"Everybody, I've created these armor for all of you, use them to defend yourselves from attacks, I don't know if we'll be able to guard you all the time, so try to survive and deal as much damage while we distract it with Benladann!" I roared, everybody seemed to agree, roaring back while readying their weapons.
"I guess there's no other option then…" My wife said while taking out her two weapons.
Crack… crack… CRACK!
The ice continued cracking, as a sudden claw emerged from within. The hearts of everybody were racing constantly, I could quickly hear their hearts thanks to my enchanted senses as a being above Rank 7.
"Skadi, Uller, come!"
I called my two living weapons, as they flew into my hands already transformed into their beautiful Divine Weapon forms. They didn't had to do any trial at all, so they didn't got any rewards, but even then, they seemed very strong after I upgraded them one last time back then.
I looked into the ice once more, as another claw emerged, accompanied by the horrifying sound of glass shattering. Within seconds since the message of the Frost Queen finished, the enormous Ancient Chaos Dragon Progenitor Fragment finally freed itself…
CRAAASH!
The ice flew into bits, all while the enormous Dragon, being several meters taller than me roared, spreading out its wings into the rest of the room.
"GROOOARRR!"
Within her eyes I could only see insanity and a ferocious intent… She had long ago stopped being a Dragon, turning into a monstrous beast. Perhaps it was also my duty and that of Benladann to free the ancient progenitor of Light Dragons.
