Omega Summoner

Chapter 220: Escaping a Blizzard

The snow eagle flew back up high and its wings started reflecting light. The snow eagle then flapped its wings and it launched dozens of projectiles towards the group. It actually launched its hardened feathers as projectiles and those projectiles cut through the wind without resistance.

”Shield of Gaea” Levin Cloud stated.

Levin Cloud shouted the skillʼs name and plants that are not seen in the frozen wasteland started growing on the ice itself. The plants that grew are bluish white and looked like a plant that will grow in cold climates. The leaves of the plant resembled that of a maple leaf that had an icy like texture.

The plants then formed a dome above the group and protected them from the projectiles while Kanlaon chased after the snow eagle that is flying. The feathers that were launched by the flying snow eagle hit the leaf that covered them and it managed to pierce it halfway. Adrian looked at it closely and the feathers looked extremely sharp like the feathers became sharp metal.

Adrian then noticed something wrong with Saena and Levin Cloud as they are shivering and they might get frostbite. Saena is shivering due to the cold so Adrian had to give it a potion that warmed anyone that drinks it. Saena did not want to drink the potion because it smelled bad but Adrian forced her into drinking it.

Due to drinking the potion, Saena is out of commission because it fainted upon taking the potion but she is still fine. Saena might be overreacting so Adrian did not bother her anymore as her body did not shiver from the cold anymore. Adrian handed the potion to Levin Cloud and the latter paled because of what it did to Saena.

Adrian did not bother with Levin Cloudʼs reaction and told Sirius to hunt the other snow eagle that crashed to the ground. Sirius understood its masterʼs orders and immediately searched for the smell of blood. The Shield of Gaea disappeared revealing what is now happening in the air.

Kanlaon used his body to coil around the snow eagle and they were brawling in the air. Kanlaon would bite the snow eagle while the snow eagle would peck at Kanlaonʼs scales. Despite the sharp beak of the snow eagle, it did not manage to crack Kanlaonʼs scales proving that dragon scale is a very hard material.

Adrian decided to aid Kanlaon so he unfurled his wings and rose to the sky while Levin Cloud beckoned Charon to follow him and aid Sirius. As for Saena, Levin Cloud had to drag the fainted bird by the feet so that it would not get attacked while it is not capable to dodge.

Adrian is now at the same level in the sky as the two monsters but does not want to fire arrow carelessly as he might hit Kanlaon. He had no choice but to fly closer to the back of the snow eagle and fire arrows at an almost pointblank range. The snow eagle could only cry as it is being beaten down by two individuals and it could barely fight back.

Meanwhile, Sirius found the snow eagle that crashed on the ground with its right wing broken. It tried to take to the skies but with its broken wing it could only wait for the wing to heal. Sirius used Portal Assault to narrow the distance and strike the snow eagle by the neck which the latter did not see coming.

The snow eagle and Sirius started to wrestle each other on the snow and it is a chaotic fight. Levin Cloud who just arrived could only heal the wounds that Sirius has occurred because he might hit Sirius if he cast damaging spells. Charon used its skill Soul Siphon and 20% of the current health of the snow eagle which shocked Levin Cloud.

Charon then gave all the health it absorbed towards Sirius which made Levin Cloud give up from being shocked.

”Yeah, I doubt he would get anything normal by now. I should be immune from the shock by now but it is still difficult.” Levin Cloud muttered to himself while he kept up the healing.

While the fight is ongoing, they did not see that something is rolling in towards them. A mass of white cloud is approaching Adrianʼs location. The winds became extreme and Adrian finally felt that the wind pressure increased so he looked back. Adrian finally saw the rolling white clouds coming towards them but it is not actually clouds but tons of snow.

It looked like an avalanche is coming towards them and Adrian warned everyone. Kanlaon let go of the snow eagle and it plopped to the ground. Adrian could care less of the experience as they might get team wiped by the incoming blizzard.

Kanlaon and Adrian then went to the location where Levin Cloud and the others went in order to find shelter. They managed to find the other group and they were almost able to kill the snow eagle but Adrian shouted loudly which made them stop what they are doing.

”A blizzard is coming. We must find shelter immediately.” Adrian shouted.

The group suddenly looked behind them and saw the rolling white clouds upon them. Sirius immediately hid in Adrianʼs shadow while Adrian sealed Charon and Saena who is still acting unconscious but maybe she is now sleeping. Kanlaon swooped down and carried Levin Cloud.

Adrian and Kanlaon could not use the sky as a shelter because the rolling blizzard is encroaching faster than they could fly high. The only choice they have now is to outrun the blizzard and hopefully find shelter in the process.

”We are going to die!” Levin Cloud shouted.

”Not going to happen. Kanlaon, let us head towards the mountain and see if there is a cave there.” Adrian pointed at the nearby mountain covered in snow.

”Let us just hope that your hunch is correct or else.” Levin Cloud stated.

”Or else what?” Adrian replied.

”Or else even if we revive, we would still be buried in snow and then die a freezing death.” Levin Cloud said with worry in his tone.

”Oh! You do not need to worry about me. I have a shield made of fire that can melt the ice surrounding me so at least one of us will be safe.” Adrian replied.

”Yah! This is why I wanted to back out suddenly!” Levin Cloud retorted back but the blizzard is almost upon them.

At the heart of an icy mountain, a giant with blue skin and red tattoo like glyphs is hammering a spear. No one would ever thought that at the center of an icy mountain is an extremely hot place flowing with metals and lava.

The giant is immersed in his hammering but a group of beautiful women are just watching the giant at work. They do not dare to disturb the giant that is crafting the spear because they might break his concentration. One beautiful woman in particular is waiting expectantly because it is her weapon that is being forged before she goes into battle.

Frey was led to this cold place by the Valkyries in order to forge a weapon for her because the Goddess Freyja wanted to reward Frey for doing a great job completing her quests. She just needs to finish the last quest before she could become a Valkyrie. They are located in a forge at the heart of an icy mountain.

Frey is told that the Valkyriesʼ weapons and armors are made by a demigod blacksmith that resides in an icy wasteland. She thought why would a blacksmith reside in an icy mountain but her doubt is answered when she saw the blacksmith itself. She knew that there are numerous races in Pandemonium but the other races were difficult to find.

The blacksmith in front of her does not feel like an ordinary blacksmith because she could tell that she would lose if she battled him. The blacksmithsʼ name is Aurgelmir and the Valkyries said to be respectful to him because he is one of the few remaining demigod blacksmiths. Frey could tell that the demigod blacksmith does not have any human origin.

She wanted to ask what his race was but the demigod blacksmith is very grumpy to say the least. Aurgelmir only agreed to craft the weapon because the Valkyries themselves presented the demigod blacksmiths with rare metals. If Frey is correct then the metals gifted to the demigod blacksmith could fund a top guild for a year.

Frey also noticed that the giant has frost powers and had ice like skin but the red tattoos on his skin protects him from the heat. She seen the demigod blacksmith breath frosty breath to cool down the heated metal so she became curious why an individual tied to the cold would live in a hot place.

”Brunhild, what is the esteemed blacksmithʼs race?” Frey asked the ashen blonde Valkyrie that is the current leader of the warrior women.

”Lord Aurgelmir is from the Jotunn race which is a race of elemental giants much older than humanity itself. They do not age after a certain point so they are called an ancient race.

Even if all of us team up, he could definitely stomp on us easily.” Brunhild stated which made Frey extremely shocked because she thought that the Valkyries are powerful already but an individual that could overpower all of them is mind blowing.
