After getting clear with my situation,I carefully decided that I shouldn't copy non-humanoid beings if I don't absolutely have to,my mutation through the skills until now was sort of harmless,the throat and the spine thing was still mostly painful,but didn't cripple me or cause any obvious problems to me which was good.

Frostwing told me that my was probably safe to use since he could see that my throat had basically reformed into that of a dragon throat only on a smaller scale meaning that the roar will also be less effective then that of a real dragon,but still,it will be a very strong weapon to have,he says.

I wasn't sure about the newly acquired skills,the confused me the most since it could turn me into a complete freak or even kill me outright somehow,frostwing was also iffy about that skill and advised me only to use it when I actually need to,I wasn't even sure when this skill was going to be useful.

Anyways I talked with frostwing for about two hours that night,after getting clear with my own situation I wanted to know what happened to him and why he was constantly switching from a infant to a elder.

-Hmm...thats a good questions master...you see this is my second life in my previously life I used to be a mighty frost dragon and as I said people called me the divine black ice dragon emperor,I had made a quiet name for myself hahaha

Frostwing laughed vigorously remembering his past life with a happy look on his face,I couldn't help,but remember the huge and majestic dragon that had appeared in my vision when I first connected with frostwing.

While laughing frostwings eyes suddenly turned dark as he started to remember a few of the non-pleasant things that might have happened to him.

-Well,but as they say good things don't continue for too long and there were is a huge name there is also a huge reward for it my fame as one of the most powerful frost dragons alive spread fast and wide multiple warriors and self proclaimed heroes came and left,some dying in the few first seconds of the fight while others simply running for their lives,I had made the mistake to think that I was unbeatable my mind was fogged by arrogance swallowed by power and nothing else,until finally a worthy warrior came a hero to be precise...

Frostwing pasued for a minute lost in his thoughts until he continued.

-That hero was also very young he fought me tooth for tooth and suffered much by my attacks he was inexperienced,but talented with the sword without a doubt.In a sense it was a good thing that he had killed me and it was also my foolishness that lead me to my death with one careless moment he had pulled out a legendary weapon the I was already too late when I realized that he had the weapon directly canceling my frost element and pulling me into a corner that he planned out all along killing me with one strong slash cutting my heart

My heart trembled,it was a interesting story and it also made me curious as I couldn't help myself asking.

-Then how did you survive ? How did you reincarnate ?

Frostwing smiled seeing the curiosity I showed and answered calmly.

-A dragon is a very strong being not only is its body special its soul is also special and when a dragon ages and becomes old that soul of his also gets stronger with life,essence or what everyone else calls it mana through mana my soul was purified strengthened to the point I was able to cross the barrier of the dead and keep my conscious through it,luckily reincarnating back into another dragon,but unfortunately even I don't know what happened,I was isolated when I was inside the egg and only waited for someone to arrive and hatch me.I had a long time to think about my actions on my previous life to reflect on them and get ready to start a new life finally meeting you of course the one who had hatched me my master,the other half of me the more younger conscious is also a part of me a new part that I can't get rid off like that,I have to accept that part,that we have to share the same body,but I am not worried I will teach the younger one of the way of the dragon and I can also see that there is a decent teacher around to teach this young one how to fly since I can't just force him to jump off a cliff...red hawk was it ?

Frostwing spoke humorously it was really funny if you think about it a hawk teaching a dragon how to fly,but I could also see that frostwing had many things that he regretted many things that he didn't want to tell me just yet he truly seemed to have reflected on all those things,it makes you wonder how long he stayed inside the egg or how he ended up in the tomb as a ancient artifact,but nonetheless I was glad that frostwing was here by my side.

-Frostwing I have a favor ask from you...

I said lowering my head while speaking to him,frostwing was surprised he immediately stood up feeling the seriousness that I was conveying through my words and actions.

-What is it master ? You don't have to be this formal to me I am your servant it is my duty to serve you as you are my owner the one who had hatched me...

I blushed hearing his words in a round about way I could feel that frostwing was telling me that I am basically his father,it made me warm from the inside seeing him feel that way.

-I want you to teach me about until now I had always just self improvised to learn about magic,but even I know that I will soon reach my bottle neck through this method I need a proper instructor to be able to improve some more and since I am needed here most of the time I can't just go out my life is also very fragile so every time I walk out of the forest I am risking myself to die horribly within a few seconds,I may not be able to take a few hits,but I still don't want to stay weak

Frostwing thought for a moment,I knew that he wasn't going to refuse me this favor the only reason I was doing this was to show him that I had a strong resolve and that I took the matter seriously.

Frostwing smiled nodding his head I spoke to me.

-I will teach you everything I know you have commitment master and thats all I need,but I have to remind you that I can't always come out and speak to you like this my other younger half is curious and playful you will also need to take care of him some more give him attention the rest you don't have to worry

Frostwing assured making me feel glad and also excited about the prospect of actually improving now that I had a competent and powerful teacher one my side !

We decided to end our conversation at that,the younger frostwing also came out seeking attention from me which I did playing with him some more until he got tired and fell asleep on my bed.

I wasn't tired or sleepy and I was convinced that the other girls were already asleep so I decided to go downstairs and start cooking some food for the girls,getting back to the present with everyone at the dinner table,it was early in the morning.

A total of 5 and a half days had passed,tomorrow,the ratmen should be ready to go against the lamia,originally I was planning on having us go there two days prior,but now we needed to move quickly and start preparing,my sickness had delayed us very much and I didn't want to call off the assault nor skip it in any way.

On the other hand the girls would also need to relax some bit they were pretty starved and not really in the most optimal form,but healthy nonetheless so I was optimistic enough for it work.

-Lord sorron aren't you going to eat ?

Hobusaku asked me quite worried really watching me from the side and seeing not even touching the small plate of meat and vegetables that I had prepared myself.

Her words had immediately pulled everyones attention towards me,the dinner table had turned very serious and also quiet for a moment all eyes were on me making me anxious really since those eyes were full of worry.

-Its not that I am not going to eat its just that I feel full right now,so I am waiting...

I wasn't very hungry to be honest,the sleep and my sluggish body made my appetite disappear,I forced myself to cook since I only did it for the girls and thought that I could eat something while watching the girls in the end I was wrong.

My lack of appetite worried everyone since they knew that I didn't really eat anything proper when I was asleep only eating some soups and drinking water to keep me alive,because of that my body was alright still thin and tough I didn't turn into a skeleton fortunately.

I didn't want my lack of appetite to ruin the mood of the dinner further so to make it alright I started putting in some small veggies into my mouth my hands shivered while picking up the vegetables and putting them into my mouth,even chewing was getting on my nerves the taste was good since it was my cooking,but it still didn't make me feel alright with my still not fully recovered body.

(Tap)

Just as I was about to take a piece of meat hobusaku who was sitting by my side held onto my hand stopping me.

I was puzzled and looked at her to see what she wanted,the way she looked at me was still the same,but this time she smiled and got closer her lips were moist and fragrant approaching quickly sealing my own lips feeling the warmth spread towards me.

The surprise kiss got everyone rattled on the table a few even stood looking at hobusaku angrily almost accusing even.Hobura also wanted to pull me away,but just as quick as the kiss came it quickly was over.

Huh ?

Something lukewarm was inside of my mouth the taste was faint and spread...it was a throughly chewed up piece of meat...

I swallowed it and looked at hobusaku for a second who returned the look with a proud smile followed by a gentle aura.

I laughed at her,hearing my laughter everyone looked at me confused,their initial anger had cooled down seeing me openly smile like this slowly making the girls sit down one after another and watch me laugh.

-You didn't need to do that I can feed myself...

-Yes,I know,but if you don't like the food I can always make it better for you lord sorron !

She said her words sounded like garbage to me,she was literally just making the food more plainer and paper like by chewing it herself,on top of that her saliva would be covered by it which I didn't mind all too much,but would decrease the heat of the food.

But still for some reason I didn't want to voice my thoughts or complain about it and simply smiled kindly feeling the sweet thought she had put into this cute action of hers.

The dinner continued like this everyone was very considered about me and didn't talk that often just eating peacefully and sometimes whispering with each other it felt comfortable to eat like this again and my appetite slowly returned to me,but I still didn't eat too much.

After the dinner I started a meeting with the girls and discussed with them about the soon to be fight with the lamia,the girls and me included needed some amount of time to prepare properly,it wasn't really all too lot we needed to discuss,but reminding everyone was a good idea anyways.

Over these 5 days the village had also been highly alert my sudden sickness made them tense,but now that I was alright I contacted rokuten and told him about my situation he was highly pleased and glad that I was alright he asked me multiple questions about my well being and my health I ended up just telling him that I was fine and that we would soon leave the village in a few hours.

I could literally imagine rokuten smile wryly at my short answers,he sighed verbally and mentally telling me that he would give us some small supplies and ready the equipment and the weapons of the girls,I thanked him.

Afterwards I finally wanted to contact the ratman dakiro and ask him what his situation was currently,I couldn't contact him over the past few days so I was worried that he may have gotten the wrong idea and canceled the whole deal altogether,but on the other hand I was also confident and believed that dakiro wasn't such a person and would hold onto the things he believed.

But just as I was about to contact dakiro someone else was trying to make a connection with me....it was blondy..

Janets group...yeah I also didn't talk with them over the past few days of my absence this is most likely not the first time they tried to contact me seeing that blondy was constantly trying to ping me.

-Hello ? Blondy what is it ?

I answered,I needed to keep at least some kind of amount of contact with this group since they were potentially good allies to me.

-Ahh...sorron ! You finally answered,I missed you so much ! Where were you...wait I am side tracking...ahh yeah a lot of things happened janet wanted me to call you and tell you about it,but you weren't answering !

Blondie said cheerfully her voice was as normal as it could be she seemed a bit more level headed then usually,but that was okay.

-What did you want to tell me about ?

I asked a bit puzzled they usually don't call me anything that happens to them most of the time I call them to give them a few pieces of information.

-Well...3 days when veronica and carol adventured into the forest they found a hidden cave entrance deep inside the forest behind a massive amounts of vines the entrance had carvings and looked like a ancient door seeing it both of them decided to go inside and when they did a notification box appeared in front of them

-What did it say ?

I urged my interested had been picked after hearing about the box since it was rare for the outside world to actually affect the system on us like this.

-It said that they had entered a Dungeon !
