Epic of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System
Chapter 2153: Benladra’s Archetype


—–

The shadow behind Kate quickly turned real, as bright light encompassed her.

At the same time, silver light spread around Kate, changing her surroundings, as the girl looked around with curiosity, and a gentle, calm smile.

“Thou, ever curious and ever in bloom…”

It showed Kate in her first form, as a small little light.

“Thou, mine dearest genius, who presseth ever onward, unhurried yet unyielding, seeking to aid those thou dost cherish—thy precious kin.”

Then the scene showed her floating around by my side, before slowly growing up.

“Thou, my beloved child, whose radiant mind hath birthed marvels to change the world and all who dwell within it…”

The scene shifted once more, showing her struggling against countless threats that came after us.

“Thou, artificer of hope and herald of gleaming invention…”

And then, lastly, showing Kate engineering amazing new inventions with her awakened powers.

“Thou, who hath drawn thy mother back from the abyss, and in so doing, made whole once more thy scattered household…”

“O thou, my most resplendent child…”

“Awaken.”

FLAAASH!

Bright silver light encompassed everything, as Kate’s Archetype finally awakened.

Pillars of steel surged as a loud tremor echoed, Kate took the stage, standing above the steel and the wires, countless inventions created.

Silver light covered her, as particles of light and droplets of mercury covered her body.

And then, they reached her chest, opening a mechanical hole through it, where something surged.

Embodying Kate’s genius mind and kind heart…

Her very own Archetype!

“I am the binder of flame and steel, the whisperer of runes, the weaver of circuits where none dared weave…”

“I am the dreamer of engines, the awakener of ancient sparks, the hands that mend the broken world with bolts of brilliance…”

“I am he who bringeth light to shadowed minds, and fire to the forges long stilled…”

“I am the architect of purpose, the harbinger of miraculous contraptions, the soul who breathes life into lifeless brass… I am…!”

“I am the Wyrmspark Artificer!”

FLUOSH!

Kate’s Archetype manifested fully, a burly, tall, and large being, with muscular arms and small legs, a big head resembling the helmet of a knight, blazing flames coming from his crimson eyes, and large hands and fingers, made to build and construct contraptions.

Made of silver and black steel, carrying a hammer in his left hand and a wrench in his right hand, he was certainly the most unique Archetype I’ve ever seen…

“O sovereign most esteemed, before thee I lay mine wrench and hammer—tools not merely of craft, but of covenant. With every bolt I have turned, and every blow I have struck upon the anvil of destiny, I pledge my soul to thy defense and to the keeping of thy house eternal. I entreat thee—accept this offering of forged will and tempered fire. Even as thou didst pass thy radiant gift unto thy kin, so now shall I grant unto thee the might I have shaped with mine own hands. Let the sparks bear witness, and the gears be still—for my power is thine.”

The Archetype did the same thing as before, piercing my heart with his wrench.

Bright silver light consumed me, and this time, I was ready, and not surprised anymore.

I suppose this was part of the ritual…

FLASH!

Once we opened our eyes, Kate looked surprised, silver colored light surging from her body, as her Archetype quickly emerged from her body, a phantasmal giant floating behind her.

“W-What…?” Kate asked. “Um… what happened?”

“Oh wow, you also got one!” Benladra said happily. “So cool, sis! We got a unique one each!”

“Yeah…” Kate nodded, looking at Benladra’s Archetype. “Mine is… big and burly? Doesn’t look like a girl…”

“There’s nothing wrong with that,” I said. “It simply embodies your talents and your heart… its appearance matters little compared to what it can do. Congrats, my dear daughters, you’ve officially awakened your Archetypes! These are powers that go beyond Classes and will help you exert power similar to Venerables, if you train them enough.”

Both girls opened their eyes wide, glancing at me with surprise.

“Now, it’s time for you to truly call upon their power, right girls?” I asked my wives.

“Yes, let us teach you,” nodded Benladann.

“It shouldn’t be too hard,” Miranda smiled. “Call upon their names!”

“Yes, do it!” Benladann said.

“Eh? That easy?” Benladann asked.

“Okay…” Kate said.

Both girls looked at one another, and Kate’s eagerness ended sticking to Benladra, as both girls nodded, calling upon their Archetypes.

The figures behind them were only faint phantoms, ethereal and intangible.

“To truly call upon an Archetype… you must let their mystical steel cover your body and become one with them. Embody the Ancient Records!”

Both girls nodded.

“Come! Dawnscale Oracle!”

“Come! Wyrmspark Artificer!”

FLAAASH!

And once more, golden and silver light surged from their hearts, as both girls were encompassed by mystical and spiritual energies, materializing into hard, cold steel.

Archetypes, for some reason, resembled living armor, or even some sort of magic machinery of sorts.

And yet, they were purely ethereal and magical, and had no weird circuits or inner workings…

“There they are! Wow!” Benladann clapped.

“Incredible, girls, you did it!” Miranda nodded.

Benladra and Kate looked at one another, shocked and stepping back.

“Woah! I’m big?!” Benladra wondered. “W-What’s this…? It’s like I’ve completely transformed into something else…”

“Me too… I’m big and I got large arms… Hmm, it’s not that different from riding a mech,” Kate said, holding her big hammer and swinging it around. “Wow, it’s strong…”

And at the same time, I saw new System Notifications.

Ding!

[You have successfully awakened Benladra’s Archetype: {Dawnscale Oracle}!]

[The bond between you and your daughter Benladra manifests, allowing you to gain access to your own version of this Archetype, which you can summon and grow to draw their power.]

[You have automatically equipped the Archetype: {Dawnscale Oracle}!]

[Equipped Archetype]: {Dawnscale Oracle: Tier 1/5}: [Archetype EXP: 0/3.000]

[Sacred Record Gear]: {Starscale Crozier: Celestina: Tier 1} {Aegis of the Dawnveil: Atherinna: Tier 1} {???} {???}

[Archetype Skills]: [Stellar Mercy: Tier 1] [Draconic Radiance: Tier 1] [???] [???] [???]

[Archetype Boons]: [Physical & Magical Defense +200%] [Healing Magic Potency and Range +500%] [???] [???]

[Description]: [The {Dawnscale Oracle} is a unique Archetype among Archetypes, born from a selfless and kind heart, full of kindness and innocence. Forged from suffering and created to save and help the innocent, the Dawnscale Oracle does not only heal, but protects with a powerful shield, acting as both a tank and a healer combined. Her fighting abilities are not to be laughed at, however, as her healing magic can be modified into deadly lasers of light that inflict damage on all the sinful and evil hearted.]

Ah, there it is! Benladra’s Archetype sounds incredibly strong already?

And she already comes with two gears and two skills unlocked as well.

So it wasn’t just because the others were Dual type, it seems that if they got enough power and potential, they could go beyond like this, huh?

The Snowveil Justicar is still stronger in means of offense and speed, however, but Benladra can now fill her role as a healer and shield much better.

Although as a father, I would rather her never become a shield… but that shield can help her protect herself and her siblings, so that’s good.
