Epic of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System
Chapter 76: Time Skips Are The Worst!

Ugh…!

So detestable!

I want to get out of here!

Why am I being suppressed?!

And why is she doing so many things with that animal?!

What about me, Miranda?

So detestable, so detestable!

Let me get out, Miranda! This is for the best! Why can't you understand that only the two of us are meant to be together?!

Why are you trying to be with that monster? Have you gone completely insane?!

I am the only one for you, I am your twin sister! How can't you get it?

I want to get out! Let me get out!

MIRANDA! LET ME GET OUT!

I am… going to slaughter that lizard… So you can only be with me!

I am going to force my way out!

Even if this thing is suppressing me… even if that blood you drank…

You can't escape from me… Haha… You will never escape from me!

We are bound to be together! Together for all eternity!

You and I, and no one else!

[Day 60]

Today we woke up early as usual, and we had a breakfast of fruits and milk… Well, I had a few rabbits, but Benladann choose to eat light things for breakfast, but she planned to eat meat for lunch or dinner I think.

Day 60 in this world and I have to admit that a lot of stuff has gone by… Two whole months… Actually, that isn't even that much time!

And even more, stuff is going to keep happening, so we will prepare for now!

Through these weeks we had trained a lot both physically and magically, Benladann has been practicing more and more of her Mold Magic, as I call it, and she had become capable of controlling multiple masses of mold at once, though it also depends on her force of will and mana pool.

Through the use of Mana Cultivation and Mana Control, we had been sharing our Mana with Yuki, and later on, Frost and the other wolves were implemented into the cultivation.

This is something that we called "Group Cultivation", where I control the Mana of everyone I link mine with, and we make a constant flow of Mana all around, cultivating all of our bodies, minds, and Mana Cores. Even the little wolf pups helped out, and well, they had grown quite a bit in these last weeks, wolves grow fast.

Benladann's traumas have been slowly healing, and she is becoming way more mentally stable than before.

Thanks to losing part of her fear to the mold thanks to practicing with it and controlling it around, she had become more confident in herself.

However, she hasn't become suddenly a manly girl that only believes in herself or something and is not cute anymore… Benladann is still Benladann after all.

Hm, I've grown quite accustomed to being with her now… I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing.

And our bond had grown quite a lot these last two weeks, we are becoming truly a family.

Now… I don't know how I truly see her, but I guess seeing her as something of a little sister might be fitting.

Though… I had thought about considering seeing her romantically, I quickly scratched such possibility. I am after all a dragon, I am a monster, I don't even have a humanoid body, it is impossible for any type of romance to even blossom between the two of us.

I don't know if that made me feel sad or not, but I did feel some kind of melancholy.

For the first time since I reincarnated here I wished I could have not become a dragon… but for now, let's simply be happy with what we have now.

It is simply stupid to even believe I could ever be loved romantically by anyone…

Anyways, she has trained a lot of her Mold Telekinesis, and as I stated earlier, she can manipulate several masses of mold now, of course, she needs to create them first, but that doesn't cost as much Mana, especially now that she got up to Rank 1 Upper Stage!

I have to admit it, she is indeed incredibly talented! She has grown so fast through our Group Cultivation it is a bit ridiculous…

Her Mold Control has become sharper and more precise, and she can now control it around telekinetically way more masterfully… but I am sure that she got a lot of room to learn more.

We have not experienced her fusing with it nor anything of the sort, because that obviously will creep her out and bring back her traumas… we will leave that for another faraway day.

Nor we had experienced infecting an animal with it yet either, she says that she doesn't want to, and I didn't want to force her, practicing her Fungi-kinesis with it was fine for now.

She learned to do more shapes than just balls, now she can more or less produce one or two Mold tentacles that can extend up to 20 meters, which she could use to grab stuff, or throw things around.

She can also stick a lot of mold into a tree and make it float, and use it as a powerful flying projectile, but that drains a lot of mana to maintain afloat.

She still doesn't want to enter into direct contact with the mold yet, so anything that involves her touching it is banned for the moment, but she's fine by controlling it from far away.

But overall, she had become quite good with it.

Oh, and me, yeah, I guess I have trained ice and wind magic a lot. I have tried conjuring other types of magic, but it is impossible, I can't produce any flame, or thunder, or darkness, or light.

So I am just specializing with the two, with Ice, I am becoming amazing with the shapes and making more "permanent" ice structures of all types, and I think I am getting closer to the dream of making a castle, though I need way more mastery over it.

And wind? I can more or less make up a strong storm with it, it can expand up to 30 meters around me, and it consumes almost my entire Mana, so I call it a trump card.

Oh, and I reached Rank 2 Middle Stage.
