Chapter 943 The Past Of Dragons And Titans
-----
After explaining how I ended absorbing the inheritance of the venerable of dreams to Frost Queen and company, things calmed down a bit. The Frost Queen quickly learned about my power of absorbing divinity which extended to even such things.
"Incredible, so you can even do that…" the frost queen said. "Well, I am glad you didn't absorbed my own inheritance, that would had completely ruined everything…"
"Yeah, I know." I said.
"I think I might have some things you could absorb though." Said the frost queen. "Namely, all of these statues!" She said.
"Wait, what?!"
I looked at all the ice statues surrounding us, they all looked rather beautiful.
"They're all failed attempts when I was crafting my new body, you can take them all for yourself, absorb them, or convert them into powerful ice golems." She said.
"Wow… that's an amazing gift! Are they all made out of primordial ice?" I asked.
"Yes they are, so they should be quite useful in your journey." Said the frost queen.
"Thanks a lot then!"
And like that, I ended deciding to absorb half of the over thirty statues, pilling them all together and then absorbing them.
FLASH!
The statues began to dissipate into thin particles of ice and divinity, as it was all vacuumed into my body.
Ding!
[You have absorbed Divinity]
[You gained +2000000 Divine Power]
[You acquired [Divine Fragment of Primordial Ice] x4!]
[You learned the [Divine Ice Sculping (A)] Divine Ability!]
-----
[Divine Ice Sculping (A)]
A special Divine Ability only learned by incredible sculptors of Divine Ice, such as Divine Ice Gods. This Divine Ability grants the power to shape and create divine ice into sculptures that can take life after Divine Power and souls are imbued into them. Golems and other beings made of ice with this Ability gain special abilities, skills, and even personalities if given names. The power of such entities increases with the Ability Grade.

I even learned a new Divine Ability?! It seems that it might come in handy at the time of creating ice golems and the like… alright, I guess I'll be using the other ones for that then- Or maybe I can just absorb them for more Divine Power? Damn it, I'm greedy, aren't I?
Well, for now, let's just save them, there's other things I could absorb from here too, and now that I did it, I have a 24-hour cooldown now, so I'll have to wait until then.
"Oh, you've really grown stronger from absorbing some statues I had made some time ago…" She said. "Sorry but I can't make you anymore, I want to preserve my divine power for now."
"It is okay." I said. "I understand, I am not here to ask you for your own power, I know it is important to you."
"Right! You're smart, Drake." The Frost Queen said.
"Well, not really!" Belle protested, but we ignored her. I had already received a lot of punishment for what I did to her, and she even tortured me endlessly every night, what else does she honestly wants?
After we were done with this topic, the Frost Queen invited us to have lunch at her palace, in there, we were served all sort of delicacies by her servants. And also, I used this opportunity to talk about a certain topic I had in mind since we meet her descendant back in the town of the Frost Island.
"Oh, Frost Titan Bloodline?" Wondered the Venerable. "Yeah, I suppose that's a thing. I am one of the last of such a lineage, aside from my descendants whose bloodlines had weakened over time."
"Do you know anything more about the Titans and Ymir?" I wondered.
"Yeah, I know due to the Titan's Records, something similar to the Draconic Records dragon have…" The Frost Queen said. "You see, in the past, there were many Titans of various Elements, they were all created by Ymir, our all-father, while the dragons were created by Tiamat, the all-mother. All Progenitors of us Titans were males, we called them the Great Fathers, the same way all progenitors of the dragons were females known as the Great Mothers."
"The true myth of creation says that Ymir and Tiamat were born as one, the Primordial Titan of Creation, who divided themselves into Ymir and Tiamat, both of them used the seed of the Yggdrasil Tree they found in the vast sea of the cosmos and planted it in the dimension, making the tree grow fertile by watering it with their blood and infusing their life essence into the seed, making it grow bigger and bigger. Eventually, the tree bear fruits, creating many realms. However, these realms quickly were infested by Ancient Divine Beasts formed from the pure Elements of Each Realm, alongside that, the Gods began to be born from the Fruits, the Asgardians, and the others."
"In the beginning, Ymir and Tiamat saw rampant chaos across the Realms and decided to bear their children, the Primordial Guardians of the Skies and the Earth. Tiamat shared her blood with Ymir and Ymir with Tiamat, and their children were born. From the hair, tears, sweat, skin, nails, fingers, eyes, and nose of Ymir, the Primordial Titan of Wind, Water, Fire, Earth, Darkness, Ice Light, and Nature were born. And from Tiamat's scales, claws, fangs, eyes, horns, tails, wings, and heart, the Primordial Dragon of Earth, Darkness, Fire, Light, Lightning, Water, Wind, and Ice were born… There might be more children as well, the myth is not completely accurate."
"And so, the Primordial Titans, the All Father and the All Mother created their children, the guardians of the Realms and the world. The Asgardians and other gods born from the fruits, however, envied our all father and all mother, and saw them as unfit to govern the world, rebelling against the ones that created them… this is how they ultimately were defeated by the greediness of the gods, although the gods themselves were also defeated in the war…."
"Unlike the dragons, however, the titans had a more painful ending…"
