Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System Chapter 1295 Celebrating With A Feast

Chapter 1295 Celebrating With A Feast

-----
While helping constructing the entirety of Aquaria, while aiding the people in there to get better and recover properly, a week went through by flying. The castle was almost done by now, and most people already had their homes back. However, aside from this, there was a lot of things we needed to adress properly.
We talked in private with my allies about Greenwood, and then revealed more of the truth about him and the Deep One to everyone else, especially the dear friends we made through this small journey in the island.
I explained to them about the origin of the Deep One, Oberon, the First Demon King and the First Venerable of this world, which still exists. Even after his death, his soul was divided into fragments, the "Colors", we explained them how we've beaten several of these guys already, including the Deep One now.
And we also told them of the dangers they might face in the future, about the Colors showing up once more, somewhere, someday… I offered them my aid, and I even offered them to bring the entire island inside of my Divine Realm, despite how ridiculous that sounded, it was actually possible.
However, although they understood the future threats, they decided to remain independent within their island, and didn't wanted me to take the responsibility of taking care of them. I ended misunderstanding them, they are strong people already, very strong, they don't need my protection, nor my aid aside from the city's reconstruction.
I was mistaken, these people… I guess I did help a bit, but these people… Well, they are their own army by themselves. Sapphire's strength is the greatest, and with the other wielders of Stigmas growing stronger every day, the safety of this island should be more than secure.
But, if something that goes beyond their own control ever emerges again, I'll make sure to rush back here in a second, so I ended still leaving a Teleportation Gate hidden underground, and a few Slimes to report me of everything that is happening here.
Benladra and Kate had forged a really strong friendship with Rose and Coral in specific, and they really didn't wanted to leave the island, but sadly, we had to move on. I would love to take it leisurely and spend a whole month in this beautiful tropical paradise, but there's a mission I had to accomplish.
I have not forgotten about a certain Dragon in Muspel I must find before the someone else with bad intentions reach him first, I've already taken enough time here, we cannot delay this anymore than necessary…
So today, we decided to have a large banquet to celebrate the reconstruction of the city and the vanquishment of the Deep One, while also working as a farewell party for all of us.
Everyone was eating and celebrating, and I joined the party as the best I could, by hosting a cooking show for everyone. I used the special Divine Cooking utensils I possessed to make delicious Earth's dishes, such as Fried Rice, Omelet, and even Tacos.
"Wooah! You're so cool when cooking, Drake!" Rose clapped as she saw me make some fried rice in just a few seconds.
"A-Are you implying I am not cool when I am not?" I sighed.
"A-Ah! No! I didn't mean it that way!" Rose laughed a bit.
"Hahaha, don't worry!" I laughed. "Here's your seafood fried rice! Comes with every bounty of the oceans!"
"Uwaah! Thank you!" Rose quickly took the plate and started eating right there with Coral.
"Hey Coral, here." I said, giving him what he wanted. "Shrimp Omelet with a side of veggies, and some fried fish. Enjoy."
"Thank you Uncle Drake!" Coral started eating.
"Me next, uncle Drake!"
"No! Me next, me next!"
"I want squid!"
"I want more fried fish! It's the best!"
"Hahaha, alright, alright, one at a time, kids." I laughed, continuing to cook.
Aside from Rose and Coral, the entire orphanage was here too, and so the nuns, which were having a talk with Sapphire and even Anastasia from all people. Eleanor was also with Rose and Coral now, and Benladra and Kate.
All five of them became best friends, and because they were all around the same age, they got along surprisingly well.
"Here, Elanor! Dessert, like I promised you back then!" Benladra said, offering Eleanor a big plate filled with different desserts, from donuts, cakes, cheesecake, fruits, and more.
"Y-You didn't need to bring me all your desserts like this…" Eleanor was surprised.
"Nnn, I also gave away mine because it was a promise…" Kate lamented. "Even though Kate loves desserts."
"Hehe, thank you Kate, I'll make sure to enjoy them." Eleanor giggled with a bright smile.
Meanwhile, in the other side of the party, I saw Hector with Miminga and Kraxka enjoying the meals while talking with various noble mermen that were scaled and sea snake-like.
"So you're the legendary sea snake that walk on land!"
"Incredible, they really have no gills."
"Amazing, they're quite dry."
"Indeed, amusing!"
"E-Eh? No we're lizardmen…" Sighed Kraxka.
"Hahaha, these nobles are funny, Hector." Miminga giggled, while holding her daughter, Ataraxia.
"Mama, they're wet?" Wondered Ataraxia, while giggling.
"A-Ataraxia, don't be rude with them!" Hector sighed.
"I think we are completely unrelated, mermen have a variety of appearances, but you're all sea dwelling beings, I doubt-" Kraxka muttered, before being interrupted once more.
"You're our long-lost brothers and sisters!"
"Please don't say that!"
"You see, there's a tale where…"
Like that, they continued speaking and so on. Seems like the sea snake mermen might have some sort of relationship with lizardmen, they could even be aquatic lizardmen with a shared ancestry with land ones.
"Drake, dear, let's go enjoy the party with everybody else." Benladann came to pick me up once I had finished cooking for everyone.
"Oh? Right! I had forgotten." I sighed. "Alright, Cooking Spirits, I'll leave the rest to you."
Leaving cooking spirits to make food for us, I walked with Benladann and meet Sapphire once more. This time, she was holding the egg created from her blood and Aquarius's soul fragments.
"Ah, Drake! You're finally joining us, now-"
Crack, crack…!
However, out of nowhere, the eggshell started to crack!
