Chapter 970 Visiting The Earth Dragon Realm!
-----
"Then, let me open the gates for you. I really want to do something after being in a coma for so long!" Asgard laughed, quickly waving her only free claw, as she suddenly distorted space in front of us and a portal emerged. The portal quickly sucked us in with Benladann, quickly throwing us into another Realm altogether.
BAAM!
"Ugh, did she had to be so rough about it?" I sighed, looking around and feeling tired.
BAAAM!
However, Benladann's body quickly fell over mine. This damn's Realm over realistic experiences were a bit too much, I felt all the pain of being crushed by my wife's enormous dragon body.
"Ugh…"
"A-Ah, Drake!"
Benladann quickly panicked and jumped out of my body, quickly trying to attend me. At the same time, the figures of my parents emerged right at our side.
"Yeah, don't worry. We can't really get hurt in here anyways." I said with a smile, forgiving her, as she wasn't in fault about what had happened.
"Still, this dragon body is too heavy! A-Am I fat?" She asked, looking at her dragon belly, it was indeed very fat, but all dragons got very fat bellies anyways, it is our natural characteristic!
"Don't worry I also got quite the belly, look." I said, showing her I also had quite the dragon belly.
"Ooh…" Benladann quickly noticed. "Is this a dragon's thing?"
"Well yeah, part of our physiology. Don't worry." I said, head patting her.
Suddenly, I felt the gazes of some old men and old women behind us.
"Ah, youth is such a bliss, isn't it?" Fafnir said.
"They're so cute together…" Nifl said.
"Oh my… Love is really a wonderful thing, huh? Seeing them really takes me back…" Svartalf commented.
"Ugh…"
As I felt slightly embarrassed, we quickly decided to move forward.
The Earth Dragon Realm within the Draconic Records was certainly unique. It was an enormous canyon, an arid zone where you would certainly find Earth Dragons in a video game.
Not only that but there were enormous mountains in the back, and a powerful sun atop the blue skies. There were cactuses growing around, and even some lakes, rivers, and big forests patches here and there, but most of everything was very desertic, yet quite beautiful too.
I think I even saw an Oasis around there…
"Now this is a beautiful place." I said while looking around.
"Yeah, it is quite refreshing to see after all the snow… Kind of makes me want to explore it." Benladann said.
"It is said that there are beautiful arid areas like these at the north of the Jotunheim Continent. It is not just snow fields after all, Mountain Giants dwell there."
"I see! I had no idea about that- Eh?"
Suddenly, I realized that was a voice I had never heard before.
And right after that, it went silent.
We looked around but found nothing.
"Hahaha, you're looking the wrong way, I am down here."
The gentle and feminine voice of a wise auntie resonated. We all looked down, as we saw the entire arid desert begin to tremble, as if an enormous earthquake was happening.
TRUUUUMMM…!
"T-The floor is falling apart?!" Asked Benladann.
"No way… don't tell me that…!" I said, completely flabbergasted by the implications of what was happening right now.
"Hahahah! Welcome to my humble Realm, Dragon King."
TRUMMM!
Suddenly, the earth in front of us completely lifted up, as if an enormous mountain erected from he arid canyon. The enormous head of a serene-looking turtle emerged, her entire body covered with hard, rocky scales. Billions of ores of all types, crystals, and rocks grew over her entire body, especially over her enormous turtle-like shell.
"I am Jotun, the Progenitor of all Earth Dragons."
It was a giant turtle! The biggest dragon I've seen so far!
How big is she?!
Like… bigger than a mountain itself?!
What the heck?!
"H-Hi… Nice to meet you." I said while feeling slightly astonished.
"Hahaha! No need to get nervous, I won't accidentally stomp you or something." Laughed Jotun.
"Sister, you're as big as I remember!" My mother said.
"Yeah, you're certainly the biggest." Said Svartalf.
Both of these Progenitors dwarfed in comparison to the enormous Jotun. Her name truly meant what she was, a giant.
"J-Jotun is sure big…" My father said in shock. "I think this is the first time I come here."
"Hmmm… Sisters! Been a while… How long have I been napping?" Laughed Jotun.
"For as long as I remember!" Nifl said. "You're really a lazybones."
"I think you died while sleeping too, you really don't realize, don't you?" Sighed Svartalf.
"Eh? I am not that lazy…" Jotun said with a relax and very slow tone of voice.
Suddenly, we saw several figures emerge from the ground one after the other, they were all Earth Dragons, making the ground crumble and tremble. They didn't all looked like turtles. After all some like Terra looked like western dragons but without wings. Earth Dragons seem to be flightless, none of them had wings. Perhaps their bodies are just too heavy to be lifted by mere flight.
"Oooh! Look at that! An Ice Dragon!"
"You don't see that every day around these arid places…"
"Indeed, indeed!"
"Incredible, he brought a ton of friends!"
"W-Wait… Aren't those our mother's sisters? Our aunts!"
"Nifl-sama and Svartalf-sama!"
"And who's that other guy around there?"
"No idea who's that."
"Hey! I am Fafnir, the Dragon of Pride!" My father angrily said, but nobody here recognized him. Maybe he was only famous with the locals that lived near his nest so he assumed everybody should know him or something…
"And who's that?"
"Who?"
"Literally who…"
"Ahhh! You bastards!" My father felt all of his pride being destroyed.
"Calm down, dear. Don't get like this. Earth Dragons are very disconnected with the world…" My mother, a Progenitor Dragon, was trying to calm down my father. "I-I am sure you're popular with others that know more about… the real world!"
"Ahh… I hope…" Fafnir sighed.
Father, you're really embarrassing me here…
