Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System Chapter 1173 The Aquarius Archipelago

Chapter 1173 The Aquarius Archipelago

-----

(Drake's POV)

It has been five days of sea faring for us, mostly inside of Fuyu, and we have covered an enormous quant.i.ty of sea through our journey.

We fought a few sea monsters in the way, but the whole trip has been quite peaceful. I've gained some Divine Power out of all as well, and while we had been traveling, I've dedicated myself to sort all things out for a bit.

I've not just spent the days fis.h.i.+ng or something, but I have also dedicated myself to my family more than ever before, especially my two daughters. I've been helping them develop their powers, in hopes that they can awaken their dragon forms sooner.

Everyday I've been checking the presence of Elemental Orb Shards using the Orbs Spirit Cores, and I've sensed a few near the coast of Muspelheim, we decided to move there and grab them while we could, and to our surprise, what we found there was… an island.

n.o.body of us had an idea what that island was… except Charlotte. She was well versed in islands and other towns in different continents, and quickly came with an answer once we asked her and she inspected things out using her Unique Skills.

"Oh I remember it now! That Island is the Aquarius Archipelago, it is in fact a series of small islands connected together. It has several small towns governed by a Queen. It is a country mostly connected with nature and the sea. The inhabitants are a mix of several races, although the majority are Mermen, they name themselves the Aquarius Clan." Said Charlotte. "They're very friendly and welcoming! We should go take a look!"

"Oooh, an island nation! Kind of like j.a.pan, right?" Wondered Benladann.

"Yeah kind of." I nodded. "Though yeah, I am quite interested in visiting it and seeing what's up… Especially because I sense the power of the Blue Orb Shards coming from there."

"Wait, you do?!" Miranda wondered.

"Yeah, they might be buried there or maybe in the belly of a monster. We should quickly get there and find them." I nodded. "They're dangerous to be handled by mortals… Though, I can feel the presence of some sort of divine being in there."

"Could there be a G.o.d in that island?" Benladann wondered. "Wait, Charlotte, you know something?"

"Eerr, not really, but the Aquarius Clan is very superst.i.tious. They believe on Sea Deities and Sea Spirits, their guardians. I think they also fear some sort of Sea Monster that emerges every thousands of years or something, bringing doom to the island… Though those are just myths to be honest, there's no register of such things." Charlotte said while shrugging.

"Sounds like there could be something hidden there, it is worth giving a shot." Pekora said.

"Yeah!" Tisha agreed.

"Hmmm, if what lord Drake says is true, then procuring the Orb Shards must be our top priority, even if we didn't wanted to get there, we'll have to." Larzak commented.

"Yeah, Lord Drake. This could also be a perfect opportunity to spread your religion around different areas!" Hector said.

"Hm! Good idea!" I laughed. "Alright, we're off there!"

"It'll take us a day I think, it still very far away." Charlotte said. "I think you can see it clearly due to your amazing Dragon Eyes, Mister Drake…"

"R-Right, I sometimes forget not everyone can see as far as I can, hahaha… Well, let's take the day off for now to prepare for tomorrow! I'll a.s.semble a group, mostly all of you guys to get there. We could simply go as tourists undercover, I wouldn't really like making a fuss as a Sect Master." I said, while sighing a bit.

"I doubt your influence reaches these faraway lands in the ocean, so even if you say your name I doubt you'll ever bring much attention to yourself, Drake…" Miranda added. "Nonetheless, let's take it easy."

Like that everyone was dismissed as they went to do their own stuff. Benladann and Miranda decided to go attend the farm with the girls, so I went to my room and rested over my bed.

Not because I was slacking though! I wanted to do something quite important right now, which was… doing something I've been skipping for a while, entering the Draconic Records, and talking with my mother.

I have been skipping this issue entirely because I… am honestly afraid to ask her, but I cannot just keep pretending to not care or not know about it. I had already entered the draconic records yet I completely ignored the realm of ice dragons for this very reason.

I know my parents must know what I meant already, after all, the dragons are capable of sensing through my what's going on, mostly my family dragons, especially mom.

So… she already knows about Sangre's visit, and the whole ordeal with him. Although we've dealt with the Vampire Venerable in that battle and all, and we even recruited the Vampire Family, led by Ruby to our community… Sangre remains.

Quickly closing my eyes, I slept easily, entering the Draconic Records Realm, and being greeted by a landscape of Ice and Snow. The landscape slightly relaxed me, although I felt slightly conflicted about what I was going to ask.

"So you're finally back, dear."

I heard mother's voice, as I glanced behind me, her enormous and majestic figure emerged from within the cold mist, as my father was also present there, at her side.

"We need to talk."

Inside the interior of an old temple surrounded by nature and whose interior connected to the depths of the ocean surrounding the archipelago, a group of women covered on white clothes and holding staves made of corals and blue crystals kneeled around an enormous altar.

From within the altar, a large, blue-colored crystal shard shone brightly, emanating a powerful divine presence. In front of the shard, a beautiful Mermaid sensed the fluctuations of energy the shard emanated, smiling back to the rest of the members.

"The last shards are coming back to us… Once we have them all, our G.o.d shall be reborn! Sisters, rejoice!"
