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

Chapter 428: Inherited Unique Skills?!

-----

I had considered that the Winter Lotus Family could have some kind of dragon blood on them giving them the power to automatically tame the lunar dragon, but showing how there were many that Tsukuyomi didn't choose, it might just end up being a thing of preference.

But I asked to him directly through telepathy.

"Hm? I don't really know, I wasn't conscious before hatching, but I did felt the presences of others when they approached me, but Mikohime was different, she was the first one where I felt such a strong connection with… It made me hatch from my egg just so I could meet her." Said Tsukuyomi.

"Hm… I see. Perhaps her family really has Lunar Dragon Bloodline but it hasn't truly awakened as much as the bloodline I can give to others… Perhaps if she were to grow stronger it might awaken, as of now I cannot really find it in her information… Of course, there are these five weird Lotus Abilities…" I said to him through telepathy.

"Those are the powers that her family has, the more Lotus Petals they have in their tattoos, the more abilities they unlock, Mikohime is the first with all five of them in hundreds of years." Said the dragon.

"I see…"

"And what about the origin of your powers? I remember you using some weird magic I've never seen before! And your dragon too is pretty peculiar, and those abilities you got…" said Miranda.

"Oh, this?" asked Mikohime while showing her tattoo.

"That tattoo… is that the source of your power?" wondered Benladann.

"I believe so, to an extent… Well, the power of my family originates from the bloodline of the Winter Lotus Family. Everyone in my family develops a Lotus Tattoo in some area of their body at a young age, depending in the petals it has, they unlock certain abilities which are not tied to magic, it is a very strange power. it is said that this is part of our ancestor's unique skill which he was able to pass down to all his generations as a gift. But it varies a lot between individual… The maximum amount is five, and I have all five of them. So I have all five of these special Abilities that are not really magic but help in magic and all of that." She said.

A Unique Skill that can be passed down to others through descendants? I had never heard of such a thing as possible… I remember that the system said Unique Skills were tied to the soul, and its impossible to inherit things related to the soul, so how?

System, can you help me out? Wait, can I pass down my unique skills to our child with Benladann?

<Answer: Unique Skills are indeed tied to the soul, they're part of your very soul but also part of your very being. Some Unique Skills don't encompass a power in the soul completely but also boost the body strength in some sort of way. These boosts can be passed down to children you have, but it doesn't mean the entire Unique Skill will be passed down, but just some of its effects…>

Wait, so we are really inheriting our children with our unique skills powers at the end?!

<Answer: Quite possibly the children have inherited a part of your body genes from all the monsters you've eaten and absorbed, alongside that, your Immortal Body's effects, or some of them, not all, might had been able to be inherited, although this is yet to be confirmed.>

Now that puts a smile on my face. If I can find out that my child ends up being born so strong, I will be utterly happy! There's nothing you want more than your kid to be as strong as possible in this world filled with bloodshed and horrendous wars everywhere… there's no point in thinking about fairness or how it could have an easier beginning than me… Who cares about that? What kind of parent would ever envy his own child for being more talented than him? I would be fucking glad it is! I hope it is more talented than anyone, in fact!

But going back to the topic at hand, I was feeling rather curious about some other things, so I asked them to the System, who seemed to be analyzing the entire situation. She had already analyzed Mikohime and even the dragon, so she could find answers that I had yet to discover.

System, how come she got such powers and her family too? Also, could you find the origin of her abilities? maybe the Unyque Skills that made them up?

<Analyzing…>

<Success>

<The Ancestor of the Winter Lotus Family was a Reincarnated person from another world which had a "Japanese" tendency of some sort. By analyzing Mikohime's DNA, Magic Essence Origin, Abilities, Mana Core, and more, I had come to the conclusion that the appearance and unique abilities of the family all come from certain Unique Skills, and these are three. Unique Skill [Yuki-Onna], granted the original ancestor, which must have been actually a woman and not a man as it is believed, to have a beautiful and compact body despite being an ice body. This is not saying that ice giant women are not beautiful, but the body appearance, lack of muscle growth, and slenderness showcases that this family was shaped through the power of a Unique Skill that transformed the original wielder's body into that of a mythical figure named Yokai…>

Wait hold on, Yuki-Onna?! So there can be such a Unique Skill, now that's interesting. I wish I could just extract these powers from her or something… Maybe if I can eat one of her family members? I wondered.

<There is a graveyard behind the palace… I detect multiple Mana Cores in there, the deceased members of the family were buried there, alongside the dragons that had fallen too…>

The System suddenly told me a truth that only made my mouth water a little bit, just thinking about devouring those mana cores they had just left buried made me imagine that I could get some new power out of it rather easily.

Fine, I will take those corpses as my payment… Don't worry, Mikohime doesn't have to know about it…
