</ice>

An Ice Storm Dragon is a powerful Dragon that has reached Rank 2 Upper Stage, usually, these dragons roam over the near-endless icy fields of Niflheim.

It is said that their very presence brings forth a storm of ice, changing the environment to their advantage, and which icy winds they can employ to use a variety of powerful spells and attacks.

They possess slim and flexible bodies and disregard physical defense specialization for more speed and swiftness in the skies, their territory.

A Phantom Freeze Dragon is a powerful Dragon that has reached Rank 2 Upper Stage, usually, these dragons roam over the dark and cold depths of Niflheim, which connects to Helheim.

Phantom Freeze Dragons are terrifying and very rare evolutions of the Ice Dragon Evolution Tree, who gain the power to see and manipulate supernatural energies.

These Dragons have an inherent connection with supernatural energies originating from Helheim or who are closely related to Death. Their freezing powers are said to be capable of freezing the very souls of those that are near them, becoming powerful and dangerous dragons.

…

Two options that seem both amazing and rather appetizing… One can enhance my wind and ice magic, the other can enhance my phantom power! And maybe ice too.

Both options give me something but also make me disregard another.

The first option makes me concentrate on ice and wind, but I will end up disregarding my Soul-related stuff progression.

Meanwhile, if I pick the other I will be able to get a boost on my soul cultivation, perhaps, but I would be disregarding a greater enhancement on my ice and wind magic.

Tough choices.

But I will pick the one that makes sense to pick, the Phantom Freeze Dragon.

There are many reasons why it is the one that makes the most sense.

For example, I can still keep practicing wind and ice magic anyways, with the system's help. And what I had trained until now, they are at a pretty good level.

Meanwhile, my Soul Cultivation is very lacking, and getting this evolution of wind and ice won't mean anything to it.

Meanwhile, I can pick the phantom freeze and finally get some help in that regard.

So for me, it is the best choice I could ever pick.

It has already been decided!

I quickly pick the second evolution, as a sudden burst of light emerges from my body!

FLASH!

Ding!

<you selected="" the="" [phantom="" freeze="" dragon]="" evolution="" option=""></you>

The flashing light suddenly became something akin to an eerie phantom essence, consuming my entire body and engulfing it!

I wasn't able to completely resist this, so I ended… falling unconscious…

…

Ding!

Oh! Two amazing new skills have been acquired, alongside two other cool skills awakened right off the bat!

[Phantom Materialization: Level 1]

Any being who has mastered the use of its phantom can acquire the ability to materialize it by constantly spending Mana, materialized phantom density depends on the amount of mana used and the proficiency of the Skill.

[Paranormal Sense: Level 1]

Those who have a closer connection with the paranormal plane can see and sense beings who inhabit these invisible planes, entities that are between the living and the dead.

Grants the ability to see Dead Spirits, Detect Eerie Presences, and more.

…

Indeed, this is quite impressive, I am very pleased!

And then, I look at my own appearance.

I didn't change much… Eh?!

However, certain areas of my body had changed, such as some areas with scales now have creepy bone-shaped structures made of me more.

The natural scale armor over my face also changed, and it resembles a skull over my face… made of metallic and icy material.

Whew… am I going to become a Dracolich or something?
