Epic of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System
Chapter 1986: The Immense Power Of DecayIn front of Drake, and out of nowhere, Pandemonium disappeared.
Just when he thought he had finally managed to defeat him, something else emerged from within him.
Perhaps something even more aberrant, the "core" of him, his "heart".
Drake didn't know how this even happened, was this intentional? Was this what the Flame Emperor did?
He never thought there was something else within Pandemonium, the bastard was already ridiculously powerful on his own!
This simply was too much; couldn't he even take a break?
"Just how...?! How were you there this entire time?!" Drake protested in draconic wrath. "Are you kidding me?! Did the Flame Emperor do this?! But why? Why would he even create something containing both of you monsters inside?"
""
Ignoring her threatening words, Drake protested against her, while Chaos only looked at him in silence, her eyes closed once more.
"The Flame Emperor didn't know I was there. The Black Flames of Demise he wielded were the embodiment of one of my Fragments. They were my head and torso.""W-Wha...?!"
Drake was shocked, as he looked at his own hands.
Didn't he also absorb the power of the Black Flames of Demise?
He did absorb it and stole it using Divinity Absorption!
But he has long ago merged these flames with other flames, and then placed them within his Ascendancy Law.
Did this mean he had a fragment of her within him without even knowing?
It seemed that it hasn't done anything to him yet, either way...
But even then, such a revelation was... ridiculous!
"While Pan's body parts become giant demons, my body parts become ethereal powers,"
"I exist in many forms, and none are dead. The Flame Emperor unknowingly carried me for many years. I was able to erode his mind into reviving Pan with the scattered, sealed fragments within this continent."
Drake was shocked by the revelation.
"S-So it was you who made him do that?! I thought that this entire time...! I see, not even Oberon would've done something this stupid! Even he was brainwashed?!"
Chaos smiled back at Drake.
"You too, carry a piece of me... But strangely enough, I cannot channel its power. You're one strange being, Drake, the Dragon King."

Drake gripped his claws tightly.
"If you intend on killing me and my family, and destroy this world, why are you even talking with me?"
He couldn't help but think this, he was both asking for things while also buying time, preparing.
"Because despite everything, I respect your strength. You were able to defeat my dear Pan. That is an incredible feat by itself..."
"Both of you are weird... You act strangely human, and yet you're filled with malice. Do you even need to do this?! We can find another way! If you two truly love each other... Why won't you just try to live together? To enjoy your lives... now that you're finally free?" ℟âɴοBЕs
""
Chaos fell silent for a moment, as Drake's powers began overflowing from his body, his Divinities converged, his skills and divine abilities started combining their effects, his Ascendancy Law ring started spinning, releasing an aura of Ascendancy Law Essence. "Unfortunately, that's not possible... Perhaps we would have considered it a few million years ago... But to us, there is no beauty in any of this."
"What?! What do you mean there's no beauty- Aren't you two humans? You were humans before! I-I was also a human, I...!"
"We are too different, Drake. We cannot think the same. We simply cannot understand each other no matter how hard you try to convince us. Our decision is made. This world will pay. Everyone in it, every life, innocent or not. It does not matter. Directly or indirectly, they all belong to the world that caused us pain, that made us feel like nothing but tools. We can only find comfort in destruction."
"So that's how it is..."
"I believe you have no more questions. I am glad. I will now begin. If you plan to survive, escape... I will not chase after you. But if you plan to fight, I will kill you, and your family, and everyone you care for and love."
||
Drake considered escaping in that moment, this continent would suffer a tremendous calamity and might be destroyed but...
He and his family would survive!
What was his priority?
His own survival and that of his family, or saving this continent and its millions of lives?
"I will not wait for you."
"!"
His eyes widened, as he saw Chaos disappear.
And then, reappeared above him.
Without any signal, without any presence.
In fact, aside from the chaos above the skies...
Chaos had no presence at all.
She touched his shoulder, as he felt completely paralyzed.
"U-Ungh?!"
The cute girl that he saw before wasn't cute anymore.
The moment their eyes met closely; Drake felt...
Utter terror!
Her form twisted, resembling a monstrous mass of pure darkness with countless red eyes and
big, fairy-like wings.
Chaos' true form.
"{Matter Decay}"
TRUUUM!
"Ah?!"
In a second, Drake's plans were shattered, as his entire body decayed and exploded into ashes,
disappearing.
There was barely any transition, or any time to do anything at all.
Drake's body decayed into ashes... in just a second.
"Hm, you're not dead yet?"
However, Chaos realized she had not destroyed the soul.
"I am sure I had grasped it..."
She looked down, realizing what was happening.
"Oh, I see..."
There were dozens of Drakes.
Small creatures, slimes, spread through the landscape below.
Drake existed in every one of these small beings.
And once his "main body" was vaporized.
FLASH!
He could use one of these many slimes and reappear instantly.
"Haahh.. Hahh... Hahh..."
And despite that, he couldn't help but panic slightly, gasping for air despite not really feeling
like he was losing his breath.
"A second too late and she would've destroyed my soul completely...! My Immortal Body is incapable of
keeping up with her Decay!"
Drake quickly realized that she was much more dangerous than Pandemonium.
