I felt a weight on me as I was asleep, I figured it was Velzard but something felt slightly different.
I woke myself up to find…
Ok… really
Before she would lay on top of me and wait for me to wake up but now she was under the covers sleeping, with her head laying against my shoulder.
"Really now, you're just getting bolder and bolder." I said to myself.
"Is that a problem?" Velzards voice came from out of nowhere.
"Ahhh!! DON'T DO THAT!"
"You know, you can just wait outside my room when I'm asleep. Why are you here and…so close?" I had already gotten used to Velzards out of character clinginess.
Velzard: "I wanted to find out something."
"And what is tha- ack!" Velzard's hand suddenly went up my shirt.
"What…are…you…doing?" I shivered at her touch, goosebumps ringing throughout my physical and spiritual body… which shouldn't be possible. 'I have Thermal fluctuation nullification, how am I cold. I guess that's a true dragon for you.' I kept on wincing from her touch
[Individual Velzard Winters has interfered with Simon Winters spiritual body]
[Soul corridor between Simon Winters and Velzard Winters has successfully been established]
[Acquisition of the ultimate skill: Velzard, lord of frost… successful]
I was surprised by this news going through my head. "Velzard, Are you aware of what just happened?"
" Of course." She said with a smile.
Simon: " And you're ok with that."
Velzard: " Are you not? Remember, we're family now. So when you're in danger you can call on me at anytime. I'm not dumb, I know you've wanted to leave for a while."
Simon spoke softly, "Thanks, but… could you take your hand away, it's a little cold."
Velzard instinctually pulled her hand away as fast as possible, "S-sorry." Velzard dropped her head low, preventing me from seeing her facial expression.
Simon: "no problem."
I sat up, which caused Velzards head to lay against my chest, I unconsciously wrapped my arms around her and focused on my newly acquired ultimate skills.
I had tried to analyse Elysia during the battle but trying to do that and battle at the same time was overwhelming.
'huh…' I was expecting something cool since it fused with Milims unique skill or at least the unique version of her ultimate skill.
It is essentially the crystallization of my will to always move forward. Having a magicule breeder reactor that is powered by my determination. So basically a skill that amplifies my determination and transforms my determination into power… and it seems I have something extra… ', 'oh…that seems familiar.' the sub-skills is called 'Unstoppable' and it's basically my own version of Milims stampede and acts as a self defense mechanism, unlike stampede, mine focuses on unyielding defense instead of rampaging attack.
Unstoppable basically fires magicule-filled invisible waves towards anyone who comes at me that unaware of. Theses waves slowly disrupts any force that comes my way, reducing their damage output overtime.
There is one sub-skill that I was aware of during that fight and that was True self, this sub-skill prevents any skills that can copy or steal other skills from working on me.
This was why I was using unpredictability without concern from the watching eyes of the prideful Lucifer.
There were two more things under Elysia's arsenal, but trying to focus on these two almost tore my mind apart.
Velzard, lord of frost is pretty much the same as Veldora but with Velzard.
Summon frost dragon, Restore frost dragon and frost dragon magic, the two former are easy to figure out, the latter allows me access to the true dragon factor of frost.
I decided to go on to the next issue of the day, my weapon. My battle with Leon made me realize why protagonist always go for the sword as their staple weapon and with Visionary, the sword that I want is both figuratively and literally in the palm of my hands.
'mhm!' my thoughts were interrupted by the squirming Velzard that I forgot in my arms. "Velzard? Are you ok-HUH!"
I was suddenly flung across the room, crashing against the wall. "Velzard! What the hell?!"
The true dragon just encased the man in ice and flew out of there in breakneck speed.
Velzard closed the doors behind her and slumped down to the floor in emotional anguish, 'WHAT THE HELL HAVE YOU DONE TO ME SIMON?!!?'
———————————————
Simon suddenly sat up which caused me to feel this new kind of fear, but he had just sat up for the sake of sitting up, he adjusted himself and the bed to lay against the pillow that's against the wall.
As he sat back he… wrapped me up in his arms. My mind and body visibly relaxed, I couldn't resist the warmth flowing from him. Simon seemed to become unfocused of me after this.
'NO! STOP!' I tried to move but I just sank in his embrace.
My mind was becoming blurry, my thoughts were disappearing, I was becoming completely disarmed.
I was moving out of his arms but I couldn't muster enough strength to completely get out.
It was more accurate to say that my body didn't want to leave his arms.
His disgustingly, muscular, slim and beautiful arms, 'WHAT THE HELL AM I THINKING!?'
I tried to squirm out of his arms but I seemed to involuntarily squirm into his embrace.
Until I heard his concerned voice, "Velzard? Are you ok- HUH!"
———————————————
For the next week, Velzard had been trying to avoid me, which was hard considering that we are in the same castle, we meet with the same people and now I can summon her at any time I want.
But whenever I summoned her or even met her face to face she seemed to reverted to a cold and arrogant personality, even Guy who had gotten used to our interactions was confused.
I walked to my room and summoned the frost dragon, intending to confront her…
