Chapter 770 Stepping Into The Third Floor
-----
C r e a a a a a a k…!
The gates leading to the Tower\'s Third Floor opened, as we were greeted with a different sight from the previous one. It was a mountain range. With no stable foothold, but countless mountains covered on snow until the eye could see.
And above the skies, two enormous, scaled behemoths, much larger than Valkoinen, yet very similar to him, greeted us. their sizes were so utterly large that they were similar to Lucifer in size alone when he fully transforms into his Dragon Form.
"Welcome to the Third Floor." Said the first one, much bulkier and bigger than Valkoinen, covered on icicle-like spikes and holding silver scales. His large crocodile-like head held countless sharp fangs.
"This is your last stop." Said the second dragon, sleeker, yet much longer and snake-like. With thin arms, yet sharp claws. He looked like a speedster-type, while his brother was a tank.
Ding!
[The Divine Frost Dragons [Gjoll] and [Leiptr] stand before your path, and they won\'t move until they have died. They shall protect their queen with their lives, if necessary.]
[Their [Divine Frost Dragon Aura] is spreading everywhere, intensifying the weather of Winter within their surroundings… All non-Ice-type foes receive a penalty of -25% to all their Stats and will take constant damage.]
The System swiftly notified Maria of these Divine Frost Dragons names, and their special ability, which could even directly lower everybody\'s stats.
"Gjoll and Leiptr." Maria said with a sigh. "You seem much mor reasonable than your crazed little brother, Valkoinen. Are you sure you want to give up your lives for a lunatic woman that want to kill everything in the continent?"
The two dragons glanced at me with angered expressions, squinting their eyes.
"Our liege has already been chosen." Said Gjoll, the larger and bulkier of the two. "You have no rights to protest against our decisions."
"We\'ve been saved by them, and you, as the slayers of your younger brother, have no right to tell us what we should do or not." Sighed Leiptr. "If you truly intend to not fight, then leave."
"If you have regrets, we shall not chase you down if you leave." Gjoll nodded. "You have our words."
"Sorry, but no can do." Lucifer smiled. "This is my first time seeing such old Dragon Ancestors, nice to meet you, sirs."
"The resurrected Dragon King, Lucifer." Said one of the Dragons. "It is certainly a surprise to meet you here."
"Your sister Brunhild has become rather powerful, I am amazed she\'s not here with you." Leiptr laughed.
"She\'s not here because she wanted to protect the Dwarves. You know, the ones you tried to kill." Said Lucifer. "You\'re powerful and wise Divine Dragons, yet you\'re completely alright with taking innocent lives?"
"We\'re not…" Gjoll sighed. "But our Queen… She\'s decided in walking a path of bloodshed, to bring peace to her tribe. And we shall accompany her, and we shall bear her sins too."
"Their souls will rest in peace in Valhalla, or Helheim." Said Leiptr. "There is nothing to worry about, the innocent lives shall have a swift death."
"I cant believe divine dragons, praised as gods are saying crazy shit like this…" Partner laughed. "You guys are insane! I think you might be crazier than we are! I mean, I wouldn\'t really kill an innocent person even if Maria asked me to!"
"Then you lack resolve and faith in her." Laughed the Dragons. "A true loyal guardian will do anything for their liege."
"Nah, that\'s called madness." Maria sighed. "And your Queen has gone mad using a broke divine relic as well. Isn\'t that right, Veredorr?"
"Please… you must believe her! Tear… I knew her before this happened, she was such a sweet, innocent girl…" Veredorr appeared before the dragons. "You mustn\'t obey her, she\'s not right in her mind!"
"Although it is fascinating to know about our queen\'s past… We will not change our minds." Gjoll spoke.
"She shall receive our utmost support until the very end." Said Leiptr.
"We cannot change their minds." Said Emeraldine. "It seems like, just like us, they are decided to die for the one they love and care for…"
"It doesn\'t have to be this way…" Veredorr sighed. "If only… If only you could just listen… Why do everyone wants to die? Why does everyone wants to fight so much for everything… Tear… Why? Is this all truly just because of your brother\'s death?"
"Enough chit-chat." Jonathan said. "We\'ll never get through them with words… If a fight they desire, then a fight we\'ll bring to them… I\'m sorry, Veredorr, but it seems that\'s the only way. And we can\'t stand here for too long either. Their very presences bring a powerful curse, we\'re growing weaker with each passing second."
"For once I agree with the human." Said Lucifer, stepping forward, and transforming into his gigantic dragon form, black scaled and intimidating, unleashing powerful, all-encompassing aura.
Maria sighed, nodding. She didn\'t really had any time either. She wished there could be another way, but these dragons didn\'t wanted another way, so they were going to get knocked down into the floor and killed then. She had no time to waste. And quite honestly, she wanted their EXP.
Maybe by becoming her EXP, they\'ll stop being such useless flying bags of meat. After all, trying to protect a total psychopath wasn\'t within Maria\'s list of "good people". She would knock some sense into them… into their souls because she wasn\'t going to let them live anyways.
"Fine then." Maria sighed. "You two have chosen death. And as the emissary of death, and the apostle of Helheim, I will bring you down, and paint this white landscape with your red, dragon blood. How about it?"
The two-dragon smiled, showing their sharp fangs, furrowing their scaled eyebrows.
"Good. Chit-chatting is not my thing anyways." Gjoll laughed.
"We won\'t be merciful either…" Leiptr smiled.
