Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System Chapter 174: Getting Inside The City Walls

-----

It was decided, after today's affairs, I have decided to go ss up this criminal organization and in the way, rescue these slaves. I was already craving for so violence and action-packed scenes, so this fits nicely.

Although I don't even know if we will have that much action, to begin with! After all, these guys are terribly weak, so we would end up crushing them like pulp before our almighty power… But that's the charm of being overpowered, so we might as well savor that mont thoroughly!

And in the way, we might get so nice loot, as they held a lot of riches and money they steal, which we shall kindly take out of their hands, dear bandits.

Although I believe that the main action scenes will finally co when we can reach the Dungeons and enjoy our stay there, hehe…

Now, we had a duty to do, and that was getting inside the damn gate and into the wall!

Draugann finished looking around as she ended buying so hotcakes that they were selling around, and a cup of ale to go with it.

…We also ordered the sa, and the kids enjoyed the hotcakes, which looked kind of like pancakes. I should do these too if I can, seeing I got milk, flour, and eggs now… Oh, we just need oil.

However, when we reached the gates, we found a large row of people waiting to get inside, it seems we'll have to wait our turn! What a pain, honestly.

However, it didn't seem so bad, as the row was advancing quite quickly.

"It seems that there's a lot of people that want to get inside!" said Benladann.

"Indeed, I see even people with things… Maybe they are bigger shops inside," I said.

"This is my first ti trying to get inside, we couldn't afford the price before," said Gaston.

"Wait, there's a price to enter?!" asked Draugann.

"How much is it?" I asked.

"It's around 20 Mana Stones per person… It's a lot considering you can feed your family for a day with one," said Gaston.

"True… It is indeed quite expensive… Do you have to pay every ti you enter?" I asked.

"I think so unless you're a Sect mber, or maybe you beco an ally or sothing, I have no idea," said Gaston.

"Hmm…"

We waited patiently until it was finally our turn, the two guards were a young and handso pair of Ice Giants with short silvery-white hair, both of them seed to have small blue horns growing from their foreheads.

The two looked at our group, at the kids in specific, and then at Benladann. The two were fixated in her a lot, inspecting her entire body…

I believe her Charm Unique Skill is quite an annoying ability… Will every person look at her like this when they first t? And this is just Charm's passive effect, it actually has an activation effect that she hasn't tried yet…

Or maybe this is also because she is naturally just very beautiful?

They also noticed her horn and asked us.

"That horn… Are you from the sect? Where were you?" asked one of them.

"Eh? Sect? I am not from any sect, we ca from outside," said Benladann.

"Oh really? Hey, what if you let us invite you to so ale in a bar later?" asked the other.

"We could let you and your friends pass for free, how about it?"

The two were going for the ga, huh.

Benladann began to blush a bit, she seed confused and flattered.

"T-Thanks for the offer but… No," she said.

The two then seed to change their friendly deanor.

"Well your loss," said one.

"Yeah I guess not all whores know how to identify good n," said the other.

Whore? What did these fuckers call Benladann as?! Just because she didn't want to hang out with them they had to call her like that?

Okay then.

I extended my phantom soul over the two guys, as they were not able to see it.

I inserted two hand-shaped phantom limbs inside of their souls and then…

I squeezed hard.

"Aagh!"

"Eh? What's… uggh…!"

The two began to groan in pain, as they fell over the ground.

"BY the gods, are you two okay?" I asked.

"Uaaaggh…!"

"It hurts… Fuck…!"

They began to cry like little girls until two more guards ca rushing here and replaced them.

"Sorry… Maybe they got so stomachache… Ahem, it will be 20 per person… Kids can pass for free," said one of the new guards, they seed older and more considerate. I could see that they were fathers if they let the kids pass for free.

After paying the fee, we got inside at long last.

"D-Drake, did you do sothing to them?" she asked.

"Yeah, do you think I would let anyone insult you like that in front of and let it slide? Don't worry, I didn't do anything big, I just used my own soul to squeeze theirs, I gave it a little squeeze, shouldn't leave any permanent damage, but soul pain is like 10 tis the pain of the physical body, so they began to cry like little girls- No, that would be an insult to Flayr and Noirenn, they're strong girls," I said.

"It's good that you did sothing because I was about to impale their skulls with two icicle spears, hahaha!" laughed Draugann. She was apparently serious.

Alright, maybe I ended saving their lives by doing that…

"Thank you, Drake… But you shouldn't have to…" said Benladann.

"Ah, don't worry," I said.

We continued our journey, as we got inside of the walls.

And the environnt completely changed!

This thing really looked like a dieval city now, it had a paved floor, carriages with Frost Horses going around everywhere, and the ice giants were also wearing better clothes.

I could also feel stronger presences here, various people were at high Rank 1 stages, and there were even a few dozen I felt that were Rank 2!

If I concentrated enough… I could feel even Rank 3 people, and… a single person at Rank 4 at the peak of that large building in the middle of the city.
