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

Chapter 771 The Original World Of The Fox Venerable, Zipangu

Zipangu, the world where the Dream Fox Venerable originated from was not really like the world of Yggdrasil, her world was more Asian-inspired, and it held a name that Japan once had in the ancient times of Earth, which Drake immediately recognized. Drake began to think many things.

”Could her world be based in Japan Mythology? While the World of Yggdrasil obviously is heavily based on Norse Mythology to the roots of it, her world… Zipangu might be heavily similar to Japan Mythology. Implying Youkai as being the only monsters… And that she was Miko, and that magic was seen as sorcery and only those with talent could use it… Interesting, there must be many worlds like these out there. I wish I could explore them one day.” Thought Drake. The Venerable noticed his serious expression as she continued speaking about her past for a bit more.

”And well, my island was attacked by a large wave of Youkai, I did my best to fend them off with other Omyujis… I really did. But at the end, I died…” She sighed. “The Youkai seemed to be being influenced by an ancient Demon King that had awakened long ago, he was called Oda Nobunaga.”

”Pffff…! O-Oda Nobunaga?!” Asked Drake while spitting all the green tea that the Fox Venerable had served to him just seconds ago.

”Yes? You know his name?” She wondered.

”Well, to tell you the truth your world seems heavily similar to my own world’s history and culture… Japan is a small country that has a lot of what you’re talking about… But its mythology, so most of it is not real. Though Oda Nobunaga is a historical figure and I believe he did exists… But I’m pretty sure he was a human, not a demon thing like you said.”

”Hoh… Wait, does your world also has something similar from this world?” Wondered the venerable.

”Yes, Norse Mythology. The world of Yggdrasil seems heavily based in this type of mythology. In fact, I know most the Ancient Gods stories and names because they’re the same than in my world’s mythology.” Said Drake. “But to be honest, everything is different at the end… Well, you came from Zipangu, huh? I guess that’s very different from Earth.”

”Yes… I had wished to be protected by the spirits at the end of my life, and also, I had wished… That my dreams could become true.” She sighed. “So I ended getting those two Unique Skills, Dream Magic and Spirit Creation.”

”Oh… Could it be possible to let me have Spirit Creation?” Wondered Drake.

”No, I don’t have the powers to lend Unique Skills, Dream Magic became something different so it can be given to others, but Spirit Creation is powerful and it was the key for me to raise to where I am now…” Said the Fox Venerable. “It is taking part even in my resurrection as well, as I will use it to create my new body… It is my greatest power.”

”I see… Well, I guess I tried. Not like I could attempt to create my own monsters or spirits on my own, I got so many capabilities that it doesn’t seem so hard…” I said.

”Indeed, your “System” or whatever is called has unlimited growing potential, the “Skills” that you earn there can even be strengthened and evolved… and you can gain more through eating monsters and other beings? I would say its even more strong than my Spirit Creation.” Said the Fox, surprising Drake as she even knew about the System.

”Y-You know about that as well?!” Asked Drake.

”Why yes, I know about that as well! I saw through your entire soul by now, so you don’t have anything to hide from me, fufu.” Laughed the mischievous fox.

”Ugh… Well, whatever’s the case, I guess we are done with talking for now, right? Erm, no, wait…” Said Drake. “I wanted to ask you something first. Which Venerables could be friendly with me and which ones would try to kill me?”

”Hmmm… It is hard to tell! I cannot really confirm it for every one of them, I never truly met them as we all lived in different Eras, but I did visit their egos in each of their Inheritances…” She said.

”And you couldn’t complete their inheritances?” Asked Drake.

”No, inheritances made by Venerables are incredibly hard to complete. Even for another Venerable, if you’re simply not within their chosen ones, you can’t even enter to begin with… And if you try to forcefully get inside, the inheritance will self-destruct, so I decided to just leave them be…” Sighed Belle. “But anyways, based in what I know, I would say the friendliest Venerables to a dragon would be me, of course, and Onyx Hammer Blacksmith Demon Venerable… I don’t know about the rest. Maybe Savage Sun Flare Demon Venerable if you end up being liked by him, but you’re primarily an ice dragon, so you could even end up being hated, he was a brainless guy after all.”

”So little…” Sighed Drake. “What about the Frost Queen, the ice giant? My wife is an ice giant as well and I was born in her continent… I got many ice giants as allies.” I said.

”Hm, yes, perhaps. I have spoken to her within dreams when she was alive… She’s too stubborn but incredibly righteous. I would guess maybe, but she hates Vampires and you got a few vampire friends, so that might change her thinking about you. I also spoke with the edgy kid of the Blood Venerable, that vampire was seriously bad news, he was completely evil and insane, so I doubt he’ll ever ally anybody, he’ll do his own things… He’s probably the most dangerous after Oberon, be careful with Vampires.”

”I will…” Said Drake. “Well, this is a bit discouraging I guess… Where could I find the nearest Inheritance from them? Or anything similar?” Wondered Drake, trying to get more info before waking up if possible.
