By releasing the Magic Wand in the hand, Aki canceled her magic, she then fell down. "We made it!" Speak it softly. After the incident, Aki was completely exhausted.
Not physically tired, but mentally tired. One friend went into betrayal, and the other went to die sacrificing his life for the safety of himself and his brother.
It was obviously very mentally draining Aki. Akane also felt the same way as her sister, who saw with her own eyes that her teammates were betraying her and one was sacrificing her life, it really made her depressed.
Seeing how the brother and sister had fallen, Ryuga could understand that they were both exhausted. Because the distance between himself and Akane was quite close, Ryuga then walked up to Akane first.
"Are you okay, Akane?" In front of Akane, Ryuga reaches out his right hand.
"L-yes, I-I'm fine." I don't know why Akane answered him with a nervous tone. Then he tries to grab Ryuga's hand.
When Ryuga and Akane's two hands meet, something suddenly happens that they both don't expect at all. There was a small vibration on the surface of the Ice they were burning, then.
Krak Krak Krak
Pyars!
The surface of the ice they thought was frozen ground cracked and shattered like the sound of broken glass, not having time to respond, Akane and Ryuga directly fell under the surface of the Ice.
Since Akane was in a sitting position, she fell down first. However, Ryuga reflexively pulls Akane's hand to make her switch positions.
If Akane was down, now Ryuga is downstairs.
Bruk!
"Ugh .. are you okay, Akane?" Ryuga asked with his body under Akane, his eyes closed withstanding a slight pain as his back hit the bottom of the Ice surface.
Unanswered, Ryuga opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was Akane's reddened face. "A-what's up?" Ryuga asked who was confused.
Hearing Ryuga question, Akane gritted her teeth, she looked angry. Seeing Akane not answering at all, Ryuga tried to move both hands. "What's this?" Ryuga's two hands held a very soft and supple object. "Slime?"
Turning his gaze toward the direction of his hand, then Ryuga was stunned for a moment, he was really very surprised. "Ma-maaf–"
THE PLAQUE!
"Humph!" Akane then stood up, turning her face away, she snorted in annoyance.
Ah... Damn, it seems like I overused the lightning magic earlier.
Using both hands as support, Ryuga also stood up.
"Are you guys okay?" Aki's voice sounded from above the surface of the Ice.
Seeing that the still upset Akane did not answer his sister's question, Ryuga replied, "Yes, we're fine."
"Well .. you found the treasure!" Aki said in a surprised tone as she looked down.
Hearing that, Ryuga and Akane looked around. And sure enough, in a single glance the two of them could see a pile of gold coins and several high and low level Artifacts.
"You can take all this, I'll just keep the ice lizard crystal stone." After saying that Ryuga jumped out of the hole where he and Akane fell. Since the depth of the hole only ranged from 7 meters, it was quite easy for Ryuga to jump up just by using physical strength.
Turning his gaze to where Ryuga was standing earlier, Akane breathed a heavy sigh. With both cheeks puffed up and a few tears coming out, Akane muttered softly, "Essum!"
A few minutes later, Akane who had taken all the treasures in the hole where she had fallen had now gathered with Ryuga and Aki.
Wearing his black mask back, Ryuga said in a calm tone to Aki and Akane, "After coming out of this Dungeon, I will instantly return. Then, don't forget your promise."
In return, Aki and Akane nodded obediently. "All right, let's go back," Ryuga said, walking out of the cave, followed by Aki and Akane from behind.
One of the men standing guard came forward. "Why are only Miss Akane and Miss Aki coming out?" Ask one of the Dragon Guild members.
Hearing that Akane frowned. "No, we're with—" Akane turned her head back, surprised to see Ryuga's whereabouts, while the Dungeon's entry portal was closed after they exited.
"Aki, where's Shin?" Ask Akane.
"He was leaving immediately when he came out of the portal," Akane replied who did know with her Sensory Skill that Ryuga had suddenly disappeared just after he had exited the Dungeon portal.
"Ah .. so." There was a faint tone as Akane said that.

Using the 'Shadow Exchange', Ryuga was currently inside his dorm room. Unmasked, Ryu looked at the mirror in the room, and Ryuga could see a red hand print on his right cheek.
Shifting his eyes to both hands, Ryuga then moved his fingers. "G Cups? Or maybe an I Cup? I don't know .. " Ryuga muttered in a quiet voice.
Opening the Iventory System, Ryuga then takes the reward of completing the hidden Quest. "Good sword," Ryuga said by pulling the Ice Crystal sword he had just picked up.
When Ryuga pulled the Ice Crystal sword from the scabbard, Ryu could feel a chill that was even colder than the air temperature while inside the Ice Lizard room earlier.
Returning the Ice Crystal sword to its scabbard, Ryuga then retrieved a book. "Then for the engineering book?" Ryuga opened a high-level Ice magic mastery technique book. Reading sheet by sheet, after a few minutes Ryuga closed the book.
"Alright, I have already grasped the basics of using this high-level Ice magic. Then ... System, where's my Frozen Ice Body gift?" Ask Ryuga to the System.
[Frozen Ice Body Is A Body That Has A High Match Against Ice Element Magic Users: Users Can Control Ice Element Magic Freely]
[What Host Wants to Combine Frozen Ice Body With Host Body?]
[Yes/No]
Ryuga nodded in understanding, if he could use magic without casting or tidying up, it would be very profitable for him.
"Yes, combine the Frozen Ice Body with my body."
[Combining Frozen Ice Body Into Host Body]
[1%...20%...40%...50%...70%...99%...100%]
[The merger worked]
[Dig]
[Getting a New Skill: Ice Domain: Unlimited Ice Storm]
Finished merging with the Frozen Ice Body, a hint of cold steam was escaping through Ryuga's body. It was clear that the difference when successfully combining the Frozen Ice Body, the color of the skin that was originally only white like people in general, now Ryuga's skin turned pale white.
And of course, Ryuga became even more handsome than before.
Raising his right hand parallel to his chest, Ryuga then clenched it. Suddenly under Ryuga's feet appeared Ice lining the floor of the room, not until there, the ice lining the floor of the room continued to propagate to cover the entire room of his room.
"Hem .. is good." After saying that, Ryuga then took off his right fist, instantly the Ice that covered the entire room just disappeared like nothing had ever appeared in this room.
