Chapter 968: The Ice Queen



Arad sighed, "Another reason for me to hate her." He stood, "Forget what she said, I don't need to do such a thing." He approached Jimmy and the girls, "Let's head to your village, I need to buy some supplies and get ready to travel. Humans need to eat and sleep, right?"

Arad's journey across Yog's world had started, to him, it'll be a long time before he could return. But to everyone outside, it'll be mere minutes.

Outside, Isdis was running down a massive frozen mountain, chased by a raging avalanche. "You!" Isdis glared back at Isbert with a growl, "What is this?"

Isbert skated behind the avalanche on her silver shield, chasing Isdis all over the

mountainside. Sharp icicles formed behind her as she rained them at Isdis with an emotionless cold face.

Isdis gasped as the icicles exploded around her and the avalanche caught up, swallowing her whole with a deep rumble.

From the snow and mist, Isdis flew out, skating on an iceboard. She glared back at Isbert with a growl, "You're just trying to kill me!" She clapped her hands together, "DO-DO-DON!" Two large ice drums appeared strapped to her chest, she knocked on them and then blew in the massive ice trumpet that appeared before her face.

The whole mountain quaked at the sound, the snow gathered atop the trees fell and a powerful roar boomed out of the forest at the mountain foot. A whole pack of massive snow- dire wolves rushed out, each one being almost six feet tall from paws to shoulders.

Isdis skated between the wolves as she glared at Isbert with a grin, "See you later." She slid into the forest and out of sight.

"I see..." Isbert nodded, "Instead of a flute and rats, you've got a trumpet and a pack of snow wolves. Typical bard...you only need to seduce a dragon to be..." She blinked, "Wait, you already seduced a dragon."

Isbert jumped from over her shield, and the shield disappeared, turning into snow. She landed in the middle of the charging wolves and slashed one in half with a single swing of her sword.

Six wolves surrounded her with open maws, thirsting for blood. But the Absolute Zero never flinched, with a graceful dance, she twisted her arm, slashing two wolves at once, kicking one, and freezing the other three in pillars of ice.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"GRWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" A deafening roar boomed from the forest as the wolves charged at Isbert. She looked up after hearing a boom and saw a massive being in the middle of the sky, falling toward her.

As the massive pale, five-meter{16 feet} tall ball of snow crashed on the ground, Isbert noticed it was no ordinary snowball. That white fluff, it was fur. The being extended its limbs out, glaring down at Isbert with hunger on its twisted ape-like face.

"I own a whole frozen world." Isbert replied, "All of us the wives of the overgod had received massive wealth and dominion over worlds. My Ice Castle is as large as the iron fortress of the metallic dragons{~3000km or 1864 miles wide} so I've got a thousand lineage of white dragons as servants, I've also got titans, devils, and even humans in there as well."

Isbert lifted her foot, "I know you want to buy time, but I'll allow that." She tapped Kory's head, "Introduce yourself to her."

"Kory Shirony, daughter of Gamond Shirony." Kory tapped her front claw on the ground with pride, "My whole lineage, from grandmothers to my daughters and granddaughters in the future, we're dedicating our life to clipping our Queen's nails." She glared at Isdis, "We're nothing more than her servants, maids that she can call upon any time."

Ice magic started gushing out of Kory's body, "One breath is all it takes to call, thousands of white wyrms, ice titans, and countless devils from Cania."

Isbert looked at Isdis, "I hope you're done with your preparations." She pointed her sword at her, and Kory lifted her wings, roaring.

"Damn it! Retreat!" Isdis waved her arms and the wolves ran away, even the Yetis were forced to run away as Kory chased them, they got no chance in a direct conflict against a drakaina.

Outside, and far away at the edges of Ruris kingdom, Selena landed beside a massive cave, staring inside with her glowing golden eyes. "This smell-nya..." She sniffed the ground, "It's old-nya, but it's him-nya." She stood and smiled, "Mira's dad-nya..." She then looked a bit

worried, lifting an eyebrow.

Three different smells were present besides that of Mira's dad, one belonged to a Hellbat, and the two other were divine fragments akin to angels. Divine fragments never stay around for too long, something had gone horribly wrong.

She ran down the cave, slipping through the cracks and crevices until she reached a massive forgotten city beneath the ground. Selena stood atop a massive stalagmite, holding on with her claws as she inspected the old ruins.

Fresh blood, the booms of music still echo faintly in the massive cavern. "A guitar, Mira's dad was a bard... those sounds are one year old, so he survived the war." She jumped, landing in the middle of the ancient city.

The moment her feet touched the ground, thousands of monsters appeared out of nowhere. Humanoid in shape, brown with antenna growing from their head, hulking cockroaches. Those massive monsters were as muscular and massive as Arad's humanoid body, and all of them glared at Selena with starving stares.

"JOOOJOOO!" One of them screeched, approaching her. CRACK! He stood before her, glaring

down at her, "JOOOOOOOOO!"

"-Nya? :3" Selena looked up at him with a faint grin on her face, "Wanna die-nya?" She lifted her claw and started scratching the air.
