Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System

Chapter 400: Beast Spirits

-----

A rabbit!

Just a rabbit?

Pekora's Beast Spirit was merely a single tiny and adorable rabbit, shining brightly with golden light.

This was her trump card? The Ice Giants of the Dark Shadow Sect, who were all criminals in their own right, looked at Pekora's ridiculous creature.

Beast-kin had the power to summon Beast Spirits. After all, despite this hate that most races had against these beastly people their talent had to be recognized… and perhaps due to such a talent, they were feared to grow stronger.

Beast-kin could have an amazing affinity with Nature, the forests, plants, animals, and spirits. Amongst this, they had an excellent affinity with the natural spirits of the forest the most. Most beast-kin magicians developed into strong Shamans and Spiritualists.

Since birth that most Beast-kin were gifted with great physical power, although this also depends on their race, they also had a great talent with unique magic, such as Spirit Magic and Beast Magic. Since they were children that they had the ability to make contracts with Spirits, and bring their strength to the battle.

They had the power to conjure powerful spirits for battle, summoning them from the pacts they had made. Usually, they made pacts with nature and life spirits the most, which were the closes to nature, forests, and so on. although certain races of beast-kin seemed to have innate affinities such as fire, earth, and wind, depending on their race. Such as Harpies being able to be amazing at wind magic and therefore had wind and thunder spirits, while tigers and lions were good at earth or fire magic, with spirits of such attributes… others such as races that could naturally produce poison were obviously good at poison magic.

There were many beast-kin across the world of Yggdrasil, of all races… in fact, they were the most diverse race in the entire world, encompassing countless subspecies there was. They could be of many attributes and elements, making them amazingly diverse and strong. This was perhaps a reason why other races also saw them as threats, they were naturally gifted and talented by nature and the world itself.

Beast-kin rivaled elves in this regard, and also as they had many other subspecies, those that were good at fighting also rivaled giant species, the strongest physically… however, although there used to be many ancient and strong races of beast-kin in the past who could even rival the giants, they went extinct over the eons, hunted down to extinction in every single continent except the Vanaheim Continent, which was known as the last sanctuary of beast-kin.

Beast-kin were of all shapes and sizes, but had been slowing down and growing weaker and weaker in numbers, to the point they were the most ridiculed and discriminated of all races, often called beasts… despite their amazing legacy, talent, and closeness to the world and nature.

Beast-kin had the power to call spirits since young ages, and could naturally develop magic at young ages as well, often not even needing awakening ceremonies for this as they lacked the untalented mana cores of giants who were more muscle-based species than magic-based, while beast-kin was the perfect balance between strength and magic across their many species.

Pekora was able to summon her Rabbit thanks to Beast Spirit Magic, or Beast Magic for sort. This was even more unique than Spirit Magic, and it was the unique Magic that Beast-kin had! It offered an incredible ability, the power to not call elemental spirits, but beast spirits!

But what were beast spirits? It was said that beast spirits were totems. The totems of the beasts, the original animals created by the Aesir and Vanir Gods to populate all the worlds. Before monsters, animals and beasts thrived the most. The Dungeons and Miasma were what made monsters widespread, as they didn't exist, and if they did, they were of very low numbers.

Beast spirits were believed to be somewhat of figures of mystic nature, that not even other races had been able to truly grasp, not even the Venerables were capable of completely taming these Totems, entities that existed between Gods and mortals, beings that represented the fierceness of nature.

By summoning the power of a Totem Beast-kin were able to make a pact with a special Beast Spirit. Usually, they were only able to make a pact with a single one, but very talented individuals could have multiple ones, and switch between them, using different totems for different situations.

Usually, each race of beast-kin was represented by their Race Totem, which offered to them several enhancements to their kin as long as they made a pact with them. Rabbit-kin had their Rabbit Totem. It was a small, inconspicuous beast of small size.

Pekora showed off her powerful Beast Spirit to the Shadow Beasts, who were left dumbfounded by its small and stupid appearance. The little rabbit even began to eat the grass on the floor calmly, its little beady eyes looked around.

But despite that, it had a special charm to it, it was indeed very cute. But aside from that, it had a special aura, a special spiritual aura that normal elemental spirits usually don't possess, this spiritual aura contained the fierceness of beasts, even in the smallest rabbit.

Even in the weakest race of beast-kin, the rabbit-kin, they had their own totem and their own spirits, and Pekora was willing to summon the power of her own spirit, the power of the rabbit spirit! The rabbit spirit looked at the shadow beasts.

The ice giants of the dark shadow sect laughed aloud, revealing their positions to Pekora. Their power was around Rank 2 Peak Stage, they were weaker than her. However, the shadow beasts they controlled were all Rank 3 in power, and their techniques showed up to be mysterious and quite overpowered to grant such power as letting a weaker being controlled a stronger one…

"Don't laugh at rabbits, you'll regret it!" said Pekora, as her rabbit suddenly began to jump towards the Shadow Beasts…

Flop… flop… flop…

"GROAR!"

The giant bear-shaped shadow beast raised its paw and attacked.

CLASH!
