Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System Chapter 609 - The Kingdom Of Frost Tear

Chapter 609 - The Kingdom Of Frost Tear

-----
I was completely okay with them praising their stupid ancestor however they wanted, but I would had really wanted if they could had prayed to my daughter instead, she's the angelic heavenly one in here, she's the closest to god! Hell, she even has the Heavenly Magic.
But I know that my own thoughts are just insane delusions, I have to calm down, not everyone will ever want to praise and pray to my daughter as if she were a goddess after all, even as cut as she is…
Which is something very disheartening.
I looked at the three ghosts receiving all praises, and I was beginning to get bored.
"Are they going to keep praising and praying to them for hours?" I sighed.
"Well, they're their ancestors, so it makes sense. They never thought they would ever see them again, so it makes sense that they're very surprised." Said Benladann.
"Yeah you have to get into their shoes a little bit, Drake, don't be like that." Said Miranda.
Benladann and Miranda reprimanded me for thinking of this as boring, they were saying that I had to get into their shoes… But I know that! I am just reacting to how boring this is, nothing else than that.
"I know, I am just reacting… I am not implying anything." I sighed.
"I wonder how it would be to meet our ancestor…" said Rakasha.
"You got an ancestor?" asked Draugann.
"No but it would be pretty interesting to see if I could see one if there is one…" said Rakasha.
"Now you're talking for the sake of talking…" sighed Draugann.
"I think these three ghosts deserve praise, they were a great help against the Vampires." Said Tisha.
"Yeah they fought pretty well… Wait, Drake, didn't you tell them that you were going to eventually give them new bodies?" wondered Pekora.
Oh.
Yeah, I had promised that. Pekora just reminded me of that thing… I don't know if I could do it, but with their bones alone, it should be possible? I did the same with Benladann's parents, they were mostly bones and calcinated flesh…
But the thing is… I believe they're strong and more useful as ghosts than by having flesh, you know? But maybe I am being too selfish there and I should really just make their wish come true instead of thinking of their competence as fighters…
Even then, it might take a while, and I don't know if their bodies will come back at full power. Also, I've never made new bodies for souls that have already evolved a few times and are powerful ghosts.
Weird things might happen in such a scenario.
But I might as well try out, so I stop having this lingering thought that I haven't done my part of the deal, if it works, fine, if it doesn't work, fine too, I don't really care beyond that…
"I know I promised them that…" I said.
However, although I would want to announce it to everyone, I don't want to create hype unnecessarily. What if the people begin to expect me to do it easily like how I revived Zephyr? I doubt I can do the same thing, and I might end up disappointing them. Because of that, it is better to leave it remain as a secret for the time being.
I looked at the people gathered around, everyone was conversing and having an overall good time together. I wondered what I should talk about now in this meeting, and Benladann quickly pointed me out.
"Dear, we should talk about the other places we could visit, aren't we getting near a large forest area and a marshland?" asked Benladann.
"Oh right… Anyways, you guys, I wanted to discuss our next trajectory." I said.
"Trajectory?" asked Mikohime.
"I am constantly moving, I want to explore the rest of the world leisurely over the top of my floating castle, so I want to know anything regarding our destination. We are currently moving towards the coast of the continent." I said.
"Oh, so Drake-sama wants to expand his Empire even more! I see…" said Mikohime.
"So you want to explore more into the continent? I guess it is possible with your castle…" said Thaletus.
"So come on and tell me more. Is there any important place ahead?" I wondered.
The people began to talk with one another as they discussed what to tell me, it seems they wanted to assess their thoughts and knowledge first to inform me things better.
"There is. The Marshlands are not really a Kingdom, but they're filled with a lot of demi-humans and intelligent monsters. Mostly Beast-kin and Lizard Folk… They're wild and dangerous, and those lands are untouched by most people. There are also strong beasts wandering in such place." Said Thaletus.
"It is not a place I would recommend going, you can easily go to the forest to the northwest of it, which has a path that will lead you to the small Kingdom of Frost Tear…" said Mikohime.
Kingdom of Frost Tear… It sounds like something out of this world. Since I started in here that I've only encountered Sects, but Kingdoms and Nations are very much a thing, while Sects are just small fry when they're alone, they serve their true purpose when they're backing large Kingdoms and Nations.
"What is this Kingdom?" I wondered.
"It is a Kingdom backed by multiple small Sect Families, despite being relatively small compared to the Kingdom of those gentlemen that came here some time ago, this one is small but produces a lot of income thanks to being located in a port, where ships from all around the other continents constantly come with goods to offer and sell." Said Thaletus.
"So there is such a Kingdom nearby? We have never visited one, it has always been small sects…" said Benladann.
"I believe it has four duchies; each one is located around the capital near the port." Said Mikohime.
"It is a mostly peaceful place, other sects or Kingdoms don't threaten this place due to the amount of protection they receive." Said Thaletus.
