Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System Chapter 491: Small Reunion

Chapter 491: Small Reunion

-----
After entering Zephyr's room, we had a long discussion regarding what he had gone through, and then I decided to arrange a meeting with him and Shouta, hopefully with both kids apologizing to one another or something like that.
I brought him out as I found out he was perfectly good to walk now, so we moved forward rather steadily towards our destination, finding Kokoro, Mikohime, and Shouta in their room just recently having woken up.
"D-Drake?!" asked Mikohime, feeling surprised by seeing the crowd of sect members behind us.
"Can you guys get out for a bit?" I asked.
I gave an intimidating glare and abused Kumo's presence in my shadows to make an extra punch, everyone nodded and ran away for their lives. Kumo makes it so easy to intimidate people… I am just not in the mood to unleash my own mana and stuff, so she takes care of this. Yeah, I am lazy, I just take the easiest and laziest ways out of my predicaments.
"Shouta…" said Zephyr. He had changed a bit after dying. Well, who wouldn't change after dying?
Pretty much, he now feels guilty and all of that crap, so its pretty easy now to force him to apologize with Shouta and make peace, the last step to make this stupid drama go away from my life.
"Z-Zephyr, you're really revived…" said Shouta.
"Yeah… Erm, I wanted to apologize. I know I cannot really be forgiven for the crap I did… I just want you to know that I am just sorry…" sighed Zephyr.
A very awkward yet predictable response, an asshole has a hard time stop being one, I guess.
"I-It's fine, you don't have to apologize, I am the one who's sorry for having… taken away your life." Sighed Shouta.
"Well… We are both sorry, right? Let's shake hands." Said Zephyr with a mild smile.
"R-Really? Sure!" said Shouta.
It was easier than I thought, the two shook hands and that was the end of it.
Salaphertise for some reason was looking at the scene dumbfounded, she couldn't believe Zephyr had changed so much in this little time, well, he's now a changed man, a man of Jesus Christ!
I just had to calm down his anger, frustration, anguish, and all the soul pain he had, and he suddenly turned out to be a pretty decent guy, who would had guessed? Wow!
Anyways I was done with this crap, so I walked out and went back to my family, in there, I found Bell and Yuki playing around, the kids were also here, such as Flayr, Noirenn, Ruby, Cassim, and Hansel.
Rakasha also just came here alongside Draugann, the two grandpas were getting along pretty well.
Tisha and Pekora were here too, we haven't seen them in a few days, I guess they missed me.
"Hey, you guys are here. What's up?" I asked.
"We came to take a visit here, we just came this morning here through Fuyu." Said Rakasha.
"You've completely forgotten about us now that you're going around sects all the time!" said Draugann.
"Eh?! What are you on about? I would never forget about you guys, I was planning on going back to Fuyu in a few more days, probably doing the last stuff here." I said.
"Hmm…! I don't believe you one bit, I can tell you're enjoying these trips, you lizard bastard." Said Draugann.
"Who are you calling bastard, damn grandma?!" I roared back.
"W-Wait! Don't fight!" cried Noirenn.
"Drake papa don't be angry with grandpa." Said Flayr.
"Yeah, calm down." Said Hansel.
"Drake don't let an old woman's provocation get the worst out of you." Said Ruby.
"Papa, let me climb you!" said the cute Cassim.
"Sure!" I said, as Cassim jumped over my arms and rushed into my shoulder, sitting there, and hugging my head. He was so tiny compared to an ice giant it was quite funny.
"Well now, come sit here to drink some tea with your friend." Said Rakasha.
At the end we ended sitting around the table to drink tea and discuss the things that had happened.
The children were interested in Zephyr and Shouta's issue.
"How's Shouta? Is he okay?" asked Cassim.
"Yeah, he's doing pretty good, don't worry about him. He'll most likely get very happy to see you guys… But currently he just made peace with Zephyr, so we better let them be for some time." I said.
"I see… I am happy for him!" said Cassim.
"You sure are, I can tell." I giggled.
"Have… any Vampires showed up by any chance?" wondered Ruby.
"Vampires? No…?" I asked.
"I-I see…" said Ruby.
"What's wrong?" asked Benladann.
"Yeah that sounded suspicious." Said Miranda.
"Ehh… Well… I already told uncle but… I've been sensing the scent of Vampires lately, all around the area of here. There's no Vampires though, but… perhaps they have something to do with the Shadow Sect? As someone with my bloodline I have special abilities… One of them is being able to see through scents, the scents of Vampires can be perceived the best… a strong bloody scent, with some hints of dreadfulness and death." Said Ruby.
"Huhh… T-That sounds a bit scary!" said Noirenn.
"So you're telling me you're sensing them around? I see… Perhaps the Dark Shadow Sect is already being controlled by Vampires without us even realizing it." I said.
"Hmmm… What else is there to it?" wondered Rakasha.
"Info is not much, I can't get to learn everything they know either because their minds are clouded with darkness, but I learned a bit. They're apparently learning a bunch of powers and techniques from an inheritance they got. The sect master got an inheritance from an Immortal… Someone simply named "Black"." I said.
"Inheritances again…" sighed Benladann.
"I could already tell from a miles away, those bastards had very powerful dark magic, it seemed unnatural." Said Draugann.
"Because it actually was, their dark magic was made by infecting their mana core with negative emotions… the strangest way I've seen to do that." I said.
"Huh… Interesting." Said Rakasha.
