Chapter 807 Training Plans
-----
"Training seems like the next good step. But can I also be included? Or maybe add me to a different training class? I am developing more draconic powers after my last evolution so I kind of want to see how far I can get with them and what I can do." Said Benladann.
"Sure thing, count on me, love." I said. "I am quite excited to see what you've developed yourself, aside from the power of the element of Chaos you've got an amazing assortment of powers and your own bloodline is that of the Giant Ymir like every giant too! I will try to ask the dragon souls in the Draconic Records if there's any equivalent for the giants and how to awaken it."
"That would be amazing!" Said Benladann. "Well, for now, let's continue with the topic…"
"Oh yeah…"
We continued talking more and more, as we reached the topic about the Dragon King and the title bestowed to me… and everything else. My destiny as the savior and guardian of this world, and at the same time the one that will destroy Fate. It is weird, I am both a savior and the liberator that will bring freedom. I both protect the world but go against it, my purpose is weird but I can kind of understand that the dragons want to go against the will of the world, which is not a true god but a being that simply want to take over everything.
After all, the world tree Yggdrasil was made by…
"Yggdrasil was seemingly planted by both Ymir and Tiamat, both are the parents of dragons and giants, and are said to be the father and mother of creation. Their bodies ultimately turned into the world's soil and the realms, the war happened afterwards between smaller and lesser gods, created by the world's fruit, and the realms ended merging together in the world we know…" Said Miranda. "Or that's how it was?"
"Yes, that's pretty much it…" I sighed.
"S-So if a Dragon Goddess as ancient as Nifl-sama said it… It most likely is true." Said Benlah.
"Y-Yes, to think we would learn the truth that nobody knows either… It is said that the origin of the tree is a mystery. Have the mortals manipulated this story so the truth of Tiamat and Ymir being the creators remains a mystery?" Wondered Laddan.
"Most likely, father-in-law." I said. "The ones that govern the world are mostly the humans and elves, although we all got our own continents, it is clear that races other than those two are discriminated anywhere else than our own continents… Meanwhile, humans are not in here."
"Hmm… It is indeed quite weird, could this also be a big setup by a Venerable?" Wondered Miranda. "You said they were mostly your enemies as they all want you for their purposes due to your powers…"
"Yes, I do have a few that might had provoked this chain of events that caused Ymir and Tiamat to be seen merely as monsters that fought against the gods and died with them in the past instead of being portrayed as creator gods as they were in actuality…" I sighed. "There was a Venerable in particular that changed history a lot after Oberon, the one that made the other gods other than the Aesir seen as just monsters with great power and not as the superior gods they were… that's Divine Heaven Path Immortal Venerable, the Successor, a strange man who was said to be half-Aesir and half-human…"
"The Successor who is praised by humans as their god?" Wondered Laddan.
"Indeed, that one. He is most likely a strong enemy I'll have to face as well. Seeing how much of a bastard he was to make that, he probably only sees me as a walking bag of resources to use for his own selfish purposes… Ugh, there's so much to worry about that I can't even relax…" I sighed.
"W-Well, leaving that aside from now so we can calm down the tension, what about the Draconic Records?" Wondered Miranda. "What are the limits of their power?"
"Well, I am supposed to be able to have limitless access to them, but my mother said I needed to acquire the Bloodlines of the other dragon gods through my absorption powers… Sadly, there's nothing left of the corpse the Chaos Spirit had, so I'll have to go to Muspelheim… Well, pretty much I need to travel every continent and find the dragons."
"Hah, it's going to be a long journey, huh?" Wondered Benladann. "But I'll be at your side to see you through it and help you as much as I can, so count on me."
"Me too! However, can Benladra and Kate also inherit more bloodlines? First of all, is Benladra just a light dragon or can she get other things?" Wondered Miranda.
"Hm, that's something I also wanted to find out myself, but it is a total mystery and I don't really want to instigate on her powers for the moment. But in theory… Yes, aside from the light dragon bloodline she got based in her unique skill, she should have ice dragon and… dark dragon. For Kate… I am not sure, she's something different due to her composition, but she's at least ice dragon." I said. "Maybe dark dragon by default as well but… what other dragon could she be? Spirit dragon? Does that exists?"
"Well, little Shiro is a spirit moonlight dragon, so everything s possible!" Said Benladann, as her Moonlight-element spirit and also dragon pet emerged from her shoulders. It was a bit sad that a fellow dragon had become a pet, but it was clearly dummy compared to Benladra and Kate, and it could be said to be an adopted child and not a pet, whichever sounds less rough I suppose.
"Anyways, those two girls seem to have a near endless potential…" I sighed. "We'll see through them as I train them. Anyways, I think we are mostly done here… We'll go discuss everything with the rest now, so let's hurry outside. After that I guess we can eat lunch, it's getting pretty late."
And like that, we swiftly moved to another room where my closest friends were waiting for us.
