Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System Chapter 191: Sparring Sessions 1

Chapter 191: Sparring Sessions 1

-----

After seeing Benladann's parents' status, we decided to do some training with them. The Ice Elf and the Rabbit-kin leaders, Tisha and Pekora, wanted to join us in the training and exercise too, as they had met with the two new members of our group and were eager to sharpen their strength, as they said they were very rusty.

The first fight was between physical fighters, Tisha and Laddann decided to wrestle it out as they seemed to be in a similar power level. Well, Tisha had bigger stats, but she was weakened and rusty, so they were kind of similar now.

"Go easy on me!" said Laddann while nodding respectfully, he was around one meter taller than Tisha, but Tisha smiled confidently before the giant's height.

"Don't count me on that!" laughed Tisha. Despite having lost an arm, she was good with the sword with just the arm she had. However, I had taken the time to create her a new prosthetic arm made of ice magic and other materials which I had mined back then, the thing was infused with an ant-sized split of my soul, enough to make it capable of moving by Tisha's command when I connected it to her soul. She got used to it pretty quickly.

I was surprised that Laddann started with a charge right away while raising his new Axe, which I gifted to him as he clashed against Tisha's blade, which I had also gifted to her the other day when I distributed new equipment.

CLAAAs.h.!.+

Laddann's enormous axe clashed against Tisha's blade, as Laddann was clearly abusing his height to gain an easy advantage against Tisha.

Tisha, however, smiled like a battle-drive maniac, as she leaped back, let the axe of Laddann hit the ground, and then jumped over his arm, rushed through it and reached his shoulder, and hit him with everything she had with a powerful Blade Technique named Aura Blade, which was a high-level technique that used a large amount of Mana to generate a slas.h.i.+ng attack of pure energy.

SLAAAAs.h.!.+

"Ohhh?!"

Laddann was surprised, as he was thrown away right away, however, his armor and the strengthened skin I had given to him was enough for him to only result in scratches.

"W-Wasn't she a bit too rash there?" sighed Benladann.

"Don't worry, the armor and the reinforced skin of your father should be enough. Look, his skin is barely scratched," I said.

"Oooh… It's true," said Benladann.

"And look how your father's enjoying it. It seems that he's an innate warrior," I said.

"Fufu, Laddann was a good guard on his prime, and he was still a very decent hunter. He took down Ice Bears with his group, so he knew how to fight powerful monsters. For our marriage he gifted me three Ice Bears, I accepted happily afterward," said Benlah.

It seems that within the tribe, to marry, the husband gifts the wife with an offering, the bigger and better it is, the more chances they have of being accepted. I guess this offering showcases how strong the man is if he's capable of taking down ice bears.

Benlah did say there were another two guys that also wanted her hand, although she had developed her relations.h.i.+p better with Laddann, and loved him, so she chose him.

Quite an interesting culture.

Will Benladann ask me for an offering before marrying?!

CLAAs.h.!.+

Anyways, the fight continued without waiting for my new concerns to fade, as Laddann clashed against Tisha's blade and suddenly moved it to the side, using his fist to hit her stomach!

CRAs.h.!.+

"Ungh…?! Haha!"

Tisha took the hit as she laughed, she had already drunk my blood, so she also had the [Ice Dragon's Skin] Ability, and was naturally more st.u.r.dy, nonetheless, her body was still smaller compared to an Ice Giant, even if it was packed with beautiful muscles.

She was thrown like a ragdoll into the air, but she suddenly enhanced her blade with her mana and released three slashes using Aura Blade, Laddann barely defended, intercepting one with his axe but the other two hit him directly in the chest, throwing him into the ground.

BOOOM!

"Unnghh…!"

Tisha smiled devilishly as she fell over Laddann, hitting his stomach once more, like a meteor falling from the sky!

CLAAAAAs.h.!.+

"Uaaggh…! Gggrraaa!"

Suddenly, Laddann got angry and probably didn't wanted to be ridiculed in front of his wife, so suddenly, the power within the Dragon Mark awakened, filling his fists with the power of War Attribute, as a red-colored aura emerged and enhanced his muscles, made his blood flow faster, and made him even agile!

"RRAAAA!"

Laddann suddenly stood up and kicked Tisha, throwing her to the side as he picked up his axe!

"HAAAHH!"

CLAAAs.h.!.+

Tisha barely evaded as she nimbly evaded, jumping over Laddann's arm, only to be punched to the side by his incredibly fast fist!

BOOM!

"UNNGH?! Y-You got faster out of the sudden!" laughed Tisha, as her body suddenly reacted by itself and her Dragon Mark activated, it was a Shadow Dragon Mark!

FLAAAs.h.!.+

Suddenly, several whips made of shadows came out of her hands, as she entangled Laddann's arms with them and moved him to the side!

"Unngh…! What a tricky power!" said Laddann, as he used brute force to break through the Shadow Whips that her new Dragon Mark allowed her to create by manipulating her own Shadows and adding mana to it to create this spell-like attack.

However, Tisha smiled as she generated an Ice Ball and hit Laddann's forehead directly!

CLAAs.h.!.+

"Ueegghh…!"

Indeed, she was going all out and didn't care about being "tricky" or playing nasty, I see.

However, Laddann reinforced his muscles by using the last bit of mana flowing from his body and grasped Tisha's Shadow Whip, moving it with her and then throwing her into the ground with a very loud clas.h.i.+ng sound!

CLAAAAs.h.!.+

"Unnnggh…!"

Tisha was left defeated in the shattered ground, as Laddann was gasping for air.

It was a good fight.

"You win, Ice Giant!" laughed Tisha.

"You're pretty good," said Laddann.

"That's my honey!" said Benlah.
