Epic of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System-Chapter 1679 Infernal Energy
1679 Infernal Energy
-----
CRUNCH!
With a single bite, Drake devoured the parasitized Demon General, who was unable to fight back. Miranda had already rejoined Benladann, her fifth fragment fusing with her.
At the same time, Drake felt a surge of demonic power after devouring that one Demon General, enough to boost his Divine and Demonic Domain a bit more.
FLASH!
His Divine Domain pushed even harder against Pandemonium's overwhelming presence. The King of All Demons gritted his sharp teeth as he sensed one of the Demon Generals dying.
"One already died?! What!"
He quickly lost his composure, weakening his resolve, which ended at the same time softening his Demonic Intent, his Domain was overcome by the frost of the Dragon King.
FLUOSH!
"Shit!"
Pandemonium pushed forwards again, his endless infernal flames spreading out, as he attempted to devour Drake's domain completely! However, Drake smiled, the powers of the Demon General he acquired were different.
"You sure gave them a good boost, huh?"
He glanced at his hands, the Demonic Energy suddenly turning deep black!
This was a next step of refinement of Demonic Energy, a step into the next and stronger form that only Pandemonium and his Archdemons knew of.
This was… Infernal Energy!
Drake was still struggling, but even as he felt his entire body and soul twisting on themselves and his entire being pushed to his limits, he kept fighting.
The Demonic Energy he had not used before quickly started rushing through his domain, now gaining a slightly blacker color.
If he could eat the rest of the Demon Generals… Maybe there was a chance!
"Stop struggling!"
Pandemonium roared, his Domain transforming into one hundred aberrant demons, clashing against Drake's army of dragons made out of his own domain.
Even by combining {Venerable's Enlightened Senses}, all his Divinities, Divine Abilities, and even Divinity Fragments, Drake was being pushed back!
"Dammit…!"
He gritted his teeth, trusting his friends and allies.
"Please, hurry!"
…
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
"GRAAAHH!"
The second skeleton-like demon screamed in agony, Benladann started tearing through his body constantly, Miranda finally seeing an opening within their foe's endless regeneration and taking it without hesitation.
She jumped towards the torn apart demon, entering its body, and parasitizing it as quickly as she could, the flesh and bones tried to fight back, Benladann quickly compressed her form again into her draconian appearance and used both claws to hold it on.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Beams of darkness surged from the demon, leaving holes in her flesh that she quickly regenerated with her abilities and Miranda's fusing with her body, the Demon General was fighting back, without wanting to be parasitized completely, just like the one from before!
However…
Suddenly, it stopped moving.
"Ready?"
"Yeah!"
Benladann opened her hands, the Demon General was as limp as a corpse, his eyes shattered, his body oozing with miasmic mold from every orifice.
It was horrible every time she saw it, and Benladann couldn't help but remember the time, in her previous life, when she did this to people.
A lot of innocent people…
She was mad, and possessed by Miranda when she was also mad and didn't even knew what her identity was.
In fact, Miranda didn't even have a name, she simply inherited the name of Benladann's previous life.
But thanks to this name, she now had an identity, could feel guilt, and slowly evolve into a person.
Although both still regrated the sins they committed in their previous lives, they were living completely different lives now.
Drake was here, their daughters, their family, and friends.
Such a big family they had made…
They simply couldn't doubt, even if doing this brought back old, traumatic experiences.
They had to do it.
"He's ready, Drake!"
10:46
Benladann quickly dragged the parasitized demon into a portal leading to Drake's side, using the very useful Dungeon Teleportation Traps.
"Thank you."
Drake quickly devoured him without any inhibitions, the demon's body tried to regenerate but the powers of Gluttony, emerging as countless jaws, were even stronger, completely assimilating everything it digested and without letting it regenerate back.
CRUNCH!
"Gulp…"
As he gulped the meal his wife brought to him, his Divine Demonic Domain surged, suddenly growing over ten percent larger than before. The demonic energy flowing through it darkening more and more.
Pandemonium quickly felt another one died, and Drake became stronger. It wasn't hard to guess what was happening, the King of Demons felt completely insulted, as he was feeding his own enemy!
"Gluttony, it's you, aren't it?! There's no way that dragon would be able to do this without a power such as yours!" Pandemonium roared. "You've betrayed me?! Why! Have you sided with the Yggdrasil insects now?! You dare go against your own father?!"
As the voice of the King of all Demons echoed through his Infernal Domain, Gluttony appeared by Drake's side, on his smallest, chimeric wolf-like appearance, made of dark red and black demonic energy.
"That's not it! He simply won't let me parasitize him! He's too powerful! This damn bastard, he's using me instead!"
However, Gluttony's words simply didn't convince Pandemonium.
"You filthy traitor. I created you as one of my children! You were supposed to bring chaos and havoc into Yggdrasil while I was gone! The Demon Kings were of my own invention, and for that very reason! You're just like that other bastard…! Betraying me!"
"Other bastard?" Drake wondered. "Who is he talking about?"
"That's-"
"SHUT UP AND DIE, YOU BASTARDS!!!"
Pandemonium continued losing his cool, as if he had any left, his Infernal Domain expanding ever so rapidly, flames consuming everything, Drake's own Domain and the combination of all his powers were still being pushed back.
He needed more, more power!
And then, he noticed the remaining Undead, around 5.500 of them…
"All of you, sacrifice yourselves for the Domain!"
He decided to simply dump all his troops and consume them for more power. The Undead obeyed, rushing into the Domain and connecting with it, their entire Undead Souls imbuing Drake's Domain with more power.
His Divinities shaped and transformed into ethereal and physical forms, tendrils that pierced their souls and absorbed their powers.
Slowly yet steadily, Drake was managing to get even more power!
FLUOSH!
Phantasmal Flames suddenly surged, the combined power of all the Undead.
"RAAAAH!"
The flames became a giant dragon, clashing against Pandemonium's inferno.
BOOOM!
