The one who first spawned took a step forward and bowed slightly towards Yunan "a king was foretold to lt the hearts of every snow-daughter in the land, breaking the evil cycle and bringing an end to the suffering of the Yuki, along the years of enslavent and abuse we have devolved into monsters, this place has given us so our past back, we wish you would be our king, alas, you are not the one, because as long as there are snow-daughters left without their logic and sanity, such king can not fulfill the prophecy, still we must thank you, even if you had no intention to help our race and save one of our own, you did so regardless of your initial intentions".
The rest of the Yuki bowed just like her, maybe a bit deeper, but since it ended up like this, Yunan sighed and removed his defenses, he could not find in himself to keep a wall between him and such sincerity, thus he sat down and brought out so treats with him, he wanted to replenish his energy and share sothing with the snow-daughters. "Look here missy, i appreciate your thanks and good regards, so stop with the prolonged bows, have a seat and try these things, you are newborn so maybe you would like what the outside world has to offer, the kind old man should be here anyti soon, so relax and don't feel to grateful". The Yuki obeyed his words, the thing about a king maybe was not just empty prophecy, if these took him for a king, then he would have a very hard ti when he visited the awakened island next ti.
To stave off boredom and what it might make the Yuki think, Yunan brought out Sapphira and made talk about awakened island, the factions and power structure, about the Yuki in the outside world and their ways, until Hephaestus arrived around two hours later, he stated that Yunan was a trustworthy and capable enough man to handle the situation, he used that ti to get rid of the worst of the paperwork before coming here, Yunan only smiled at the praise and was about to leave one one of the Yuki asked him shyly "king, when can we see you again?". Yunan did not know how to answer her question so he stopped for a mont before saying, "stop calling king, it's embarrassing, you can do that only if you decide to start living in my kingdom in the outside world, as for when we might et, maybe we can do that on the festival three years from now, i will pay a visit to your island as a tourist, take care of yourself, and be a good girl".
Yunan nodded to the rest and made his way to the 63rd floor, he sent Sapphira back who was smirking at him, when he was alone he touched his dallion and Drogon hanging on it "do you think i did the correct thing? I may be growing sentintal with age". Drogon answer ca not long after "why ask ? It's already done so just keep pushing forward, if you look back on things that can not be changed then you will just slow down for no reason, we have a goal to reach, so get to it, king"
The two laughed to each other and then went ahead to start the fight against the Jtunn this ti Drogon joined the fight in his dragonborn form, the duo worked together like clockwork, not a movent out of synchronisation, each move was inford and was the correct follow up to the move done by the other half of the duo, their ntal and spiritual link was used to the utmost potential, a state nearing where two beings were almost in perfect tandem.
Three months later the two left the boss room looking haggard and beaten up to an inch of their lives, healing magic was enveloping the two in cocoon of life aura, apparently the magic immunity that the Jtunn had was not to defend against adventurers, it was mainly to prevent their kings from influencing the social structure using magic, that was another surprise for Yunan, the boss or the frost king was from the minority of magic users in the physically attuned species, only magically capable Jtunn could beco kings and they were blessed with both magical prowess and bodily power, the magic immunity wasn't as prominent simply because a body immune to magic can not cast magic, notice the words used here, magical resistance and magical immunity are two different things.
Still the fight went on because neither Drogon nor his master would shy away from a challenge, the Jtunn king ended up being a real challenge. The fight started with both sides using taunts and magical defense, Yunan did not opt for mana syphoning because he was not willing to fight the sa fight again, that was to help his attributes develop faster. The Jtunn used buff just like Yunan and was able to use ice magic and wind magic, Yunan was doing well until he realised that his opponent was only getting stronger with each hit it took, it had the ability to go berserk, and that was a big red flag that prompted Drogon to interfere and fight as well, the boss fought by using frost armant that was imbued with wind for increased attack speed and ice to sap stamina out the enemy, Yunan fought with lightning and flas, lighting was to cause nerve damage while the flas contrasted with ice and dealt burning damage to the king, the king had so kind of cool down on his ability to create those ice armant, Yunan and Drogon fought many turns of lee combat with the boss as it waited for the cool down to end, by the end of 5 hours of intense back and forth, the boss finally dropped dead, its healing was not able to keep up with the damage while Yunan and Drogon had endless supply of healing items and mana to heal each other.
