Once Adrian deciphered all the information regarding the three parchments, all three suddenly glowed in a blinding light. The three parchments then became particles of light that morphed into a blue crystal. This blue crystal suddenly emitted a beam of light that pointed towards the Quaint Snowfields.
From the direction of the beam, it is pointing at the direction on the middle part of the Quaint Snowfields. The war mothers do not know what happened as this is uncharted territory even for them. It is also pointing at a location where there are numerous monsters. It is not safe to go there unless they are extremely powerful.
"It seems there might be a ruin there that has details of the Rider of the North. The three parchments did give us some information about him, but they are vague. The three parchments described him as quick as the north wind, solid as ice, and can determine other people's character. The parchments did not say what his actual ability is." Adrian stated as he stood up to prepare to go towards the area the beam of light is pointing to.
Adrian is about to take the crystal that formed from the three parchments when it suddenly released a chilling wind that rejected him. A layer of frost could be seen on Adrian's right hand and his health also decreased by 5%. It seems that it was only a warning this time but the next time that he does that would no longer be a light punishment.
"It seems that crystal is filled with extreme frost energy. Only those that have great resistance towards the ice element will be able to wield it perfectly." Soleil stated as she could see that the crystal is pure ice elemental energy.
"I will lead them to the area where the crystal is pointing to." Crystal suddenly volunteered as she also wanted to test out her abilities.
"I cannot just ask you to mobilize as you have just awakened. Even they will not be able to help you when you go to the center of the Quaint Snowfields. They may be strong, but you are currently stronger than them." War Mother Crya stated as she is worried.
"Why can I not escort them when I am stronger than them?" Crystal asked.
"You may be stronger, but they have mastered their abilities. You have recently just awakened and have yet to train your newfound abilities. You are not only endangering yourself but also them if you were to run amok." War Mother Crya stated which is perfectly reasonable.
"Is there no other choice Soleil? Can you do something?" Adrian asked.
"We can summon an elemental that is of the ice element but that would mean me, and my father being weakened a bit. We will need to maintain the ice elemental while traversing so it would be up to you to help us get to the center." Vayu stated as he knows how to summon an elemental with Soleil.
They would need to sacrifice 20% of their stats for the whole duration. They would still be able to fight but they will not be able to deal as much damage as they would. Adrian knows that the Mokesi Tribe will help them but the only ones that could grasp the crystal is those from the direct lineage of the war mothers.
"Summon the Ice Elemental then." Adrian stated.
Soleil then stood up and asked Crystal for a drop of her blood. The war mothers might not like this request, but Crystal wanted to help anyway that she can. Crystal created a small shard of ice that she used to prick her finger. Soleil then took that drop of blood and dropped it on a snowball that she made.
Soleil and Vayu then started to concentrate to the utmost as she spoke in a language that they could not understand. The surrounding suddenly became freezing cold to the point that even the members of the Mokesi Tribe can feel a slight chill on their skin. A slightly small figure suddenly started to form from the snowball that contained the drop of blood from Crystal.
[Soleil and Vayu have called a High Ice Elemental successfully.]
[Due to successfully calling forth a High Spirit, the reduction in stats will only be 15% of the total stats for each of the caller for the duration of the pact.]
A white looking snowman suddenly looked at everyone and they were shocked by the power being emitted by the High Ice Elemental. Upon seeing the crystal beaming the light towards the Quaint Snowfields, the snowman suddenly jumped from the ground and opened its mouth wide to eat the crystal.
The crystal then emerged at the body of the snowman as it became its new core. The unexpected thing is that even the High Ice Elemental has great compatibility with this crystal. A few more notifications got triggered upon the High Ice Elemental ate the crystal.
[The High Ice Elemental has ingested a Great Frost Memory Crystal.]
[Due to its compatibility with the element, the stat reduction has become 10% instead of 15% per caller of the High Ice Elemental.]
[The High Ice Elemental blesses those that are near it to be immune to the effects of the cold.]
"Nice! With this, we will no longer fear the Quaint Snowfields." Adrian stated as he remembered that his health got reduced at a great rate inside the Quaint Snowfields due to the cold.
Even drinking the Heating Pill that he bought from the auction cannot help him against the cold. Soleil could basically be immune to the cold because she is basically a walking fire girl. Vayu has great resistance, but he also lost great amounts of health inside. If not for Crystal guiding them to a safe path, then they would have died but she cannot do it this time.
"We shall prepare two of our warriors to support the both of you. We must also know what is inside those ruins. We pray for your safe return to the tribe." The war mothers stated to wish safe return to not only the three but also their chosen warriors that will accompany them.
[You have entered the Quaint Snowfields.]
[Health will be reduced per movement inside the field. Standing for too long in one spot will give you frostbite.]
[Stats will be decreased by 5% because of the lacking affinity with the Ice element.]
[Attack speed will decrease by 10%.]
[Movement Speed will be decreased by 10%.]
[You are being blessed by being in the presence of a High Ice Elemental.]
[All the negative effects of the Quaint Snowfields will be negated as long as you are in the presence of a High Ice Elemental.]
"The Ice Elemental is really effective. Please lead the way to the ruins." Adrian stated as he let the High Ice Elemental shoot the beam that the Great Frost Memory Crystal generates.
The group then followed the beam that the High Ice Elemental generated but the monsters that welcomed them are not easy to deal with. The first ones that they have to deal with are the Quaint Snow Rabbits. Adrian knew that he cannot pull his punches anymore and decided to summon his three hard hitting soulbounds.
"Greater Summon: Sirius"
"Greater Summon: Kanlaon"
"Greater Summon: Kimat."
A terrifying aura suddenly came from Adrian as he no longer hid his soulbounds. The moment all three were summoned, the monsters that are in the area suddenly trembled as they could feel that their bloodline is inferior. Since the Quaint Snow Rabbits are not that intelligent, they can only react two ways which is attack or run away.
The Quaint Snow Rabbits did the former as they immediately started to charge towards the group. The small rabbit that looks cute and small would create huge shockwaves. Kanlaon immediately activated its Fire Elemental Dragon Ball to increase the heat in the surroundings. The Quaint Snow Rabbits are monsters that have the same qualities of an elemental.
The moment the temperature started to rise; the charge of the numerous Quaint Snow Rabbits suddenly started to slow down.
"Sirius use Nether Rush."
"Kimat! Follow up by creating a lightning field around those that want to get away."
"Kanlaon start charging or your breath attack."
Adrian started to issue commands in order to assert his dominance of the group. The members of the tribe might be following him, but they are still judging him. If he needs to assert dominance so that all his orders will be heard correctly then he must show that he deserves the respect.
The next scene shocked the members of the tribe that still judge the leader of the group. All Quaint Snow Rabbits that headed towards them suddenly melted immediately upon getting hit by all three skills of the soulbounds. What they did not know is that Adrian used all of his Primordial and Nether Energy towards Kanlaon so that the enemies will definitely die.
"Some things need to be done to create a hierarchy." Adrian thought as he has already acclimated to his leadership roles.
