Chapter 82: Ice Magic Core

~Drake’s Perspective~

「Fo fo fo… Drake seems to be a more outstanding talent than I expected.」

「Great work, Drake.」

「I feel like I took too much time, though.」Drake.

「That wall has the same hardness as my own magic barrier. Which means you have grown to the level where you are able to inflict damage on me.」

「Quereble-sama, aren’t you a bit too strong? My Cyclone and normal Breath weren’t good enough.」

I never imagined that he was that strong. There are still many strong people in the world.

「I’m not called the Ice Dragon for nothing. …Drake, I’m happy to be able to entrust my attribute to the future generation.」

「That means I can get the Ice attribute, right!」

「Indeed. Or rather, the next one will be the final trial.」

「What should I do?」

「You just have to take in something called the “Ice Magic Core” that’s inside of me right now.」

As he said that, a bluish-white shining glass-like sphere emerged from within Quereble-sama’s body.

「By taking this out, my mana is greatly reduced, but it is my mission to bequeath the magic core to the next generation.」

「It’s beautiful… but how do I take this in…」

「Press it against your chest and say–」

「Eat it☆.」

「Huh?」Quereble.

「B-Bro?」

I looked at Bro, and all he gave me was a thumbs up and a smile.

「Just eat that thing☆.」

「E-Eat it!?」Drake.

「What are you asking, Drake… You have no other choice but to eat something like that.」

If bro says so, then it must be true. But I’m still a little hesitant.

…No, it’s what my honorable big brother said! There must be some deep meaning to it!

…………Let’s eat it!

「Wait! Even if you don’t eat it–」Quereble.

–Gulp!!

「He actually ate it…」

Suddenly, the inside of my body gradually became hot, and before I knew it, I had turned into my dragon form.

Then, I felt like lightning had struck my body, and I lost consciousness…

～Aun’s Perpective～

–Gulp!!

He seemed a little hesitant, but he ate it properly in the end.

With this, Drake will definitely be able to obtain power.

There should be no mistakes in Zombie-senpai’s teachings.

I really respect you, Zombie-senpai!

「He actually ate it…」Quereble.

When Drake swallowed the Ice magic core, his body glowed as it transformed into a dragon form.

It seems that evolution has begun.

「That thing came out of my body, but… when it got eaten, it kinda gave off a strange feeling.」

As I looked around, Shinku and Nelfie also had dumbfounded expressions on their faces.

Huh? Isn’t it normal to eat things like that?

But according to Zombie-senpai’s teachings, he said that if you eat it, something should definitely happen……wait, did he say that?

But well, Drake seemed to be able to evolve, so this method must have been suitable.

Drake’s dragon body, which had been pitch black until now, gradually changed and blue patterns emerged here and there.

By the time the overflowing light subsided, Drake had completely evolved and returned to his human form.

「My head feels kinda dizzy. So this is what evolution feels like.」

「Yeah, congratulations, Drake! Let me see your status.」

「Ok!」

What an absurd status…

First, his race changed from “Dragonewt” to “Dragonite”, and Ice was added to his attributes. This is probably a change due to overcoming the ice dragon’s trial and evolving.

His stats have greatly improved in strength, intelligence, and agility. And his already strong body looked more robust.

However, the biggest change was his skills. [Wind Cloak] had changed to [Ice Wind Cloak], and by learning the new [Cloud Steam Dragon Form], he could apply double buffs like me.

Through this evolution, it seems that he has gained power equal to or greater than that of the Bride’s demon form.

In addition, magic such as [Cyclone] and [Wind Pressure] has been integrated into [Wind Magic], and he has also learned [Ice Magic].

Regarding this, although it was a change that happened to the four of us as a result of Quereble’s special training, it is worth admiring the fact that he achieved it on his own through trial and error on the ice wall.

As expected, the dragonewt race seems to have special powers compared to other demi-humans. He also seems to have a new technique that destroyed the ice wall, and it will probably show its power in the war with the empire.
