Chapter 93: Ice Fortress (1/2)

What have I been cooking? Well, it is something rather modest, very humble, in fact.
I didn't want to go by myself on this journey, I mean, without a house.
I know I am a giant dragon, and that no normal house could even contain my enormous body, but maybe what I've made in these last 7 days could be considered more like a small fortress.
Oh yes, my Ice Magic has surpassed my previous limits, and as I practiced more and more, the better I became. I think I might become the greatest Ice Mage in the entire world, but I should not get overconfident with myself and keep practicing.
However! What I have reached as of now could be said to be way above a mere Rank 2 Middle Stage Cultivator. Indeed, I have surpassed my own limits in every way possible, and perhaps I have become even greater than I could have ever expected, and all of that in 7 mere days!
I think I am becoming arrogant by the second, but that is not without a reason.
And that is why I am showing off my creation today to my public, Benladann, Yuki, Frost, and the other wolves.
I had already covered it with snow, so they wouldn't be able to see.
Benladann glanced at me with a bright smile, expectant for what I had in store, while Yuki seemed to be tired of my shit- Wait, what with that expression?!
At least Frost seems excited, as he's waving his tail, and it is totally not because Benladann is petting him right now.
”I am thankful that you have all come here today, as I had finally decided to show you the project I have been working on over the last week…” I said.
”Oh, you're finally going to show us the fortress you made? It is so big! Did it took some hours to cover it with snow?” asked Benladann.
”GAH! …Benladann! It was supposed to be a secret, a surprise! How did you found it?!” I asked.
”Eeeh? Everyone knows that you were making a floating ice fortress, you worked like 12 hours a day making it…” said Benladann.
”No! Forget about those memories! Stop! This is… It was supposed to be a surprise!” I said.
Seriously, this girl really doesn't know how to read the mood!
”Ah… W-Well, sorry… Oh! Let me do this… and… Boop! I forgot! Oh, what were we doing here?” asked Benladann, as she moved in circles while covering her eyes and then glanced at me back, pretending to have forgotten.
Yeah, I guess she's trying to cheer me up, but this is a bit too much!
I glanced at her with a tired expression, as I sighed.
