Chapter 426: The Crown Of Skadi

I began thinking what we could do to make the place more secure. We have already fully repaired these enormously tall walls the kingdom of Majin had before. But that alone won't do. Any powerful magic attack could easily break them and if there are airborne enemies, then they can just easily ignore the whole walls and attack directly into the village.

A Magic barrier in the shape of a sphere which protects the entire place would be ideal. But that'll cost too much Mana and I would need to constantly supply it. If something ever happens to me then it would be quite problematic, everyone would be left to just die…

Maybe what we need is some sort of Magic Artifact, items that generate Barriers by being given fuel of some sort, Magic Crystals that come from monsters, for example.

"Maybe we should make the place more secure, perhaps? How about making Magic Barriers?" Asked Partner.

She stole the idea out of my mind!

"That's… an actually good idea. I think we could at least do as much… Emeraldine, do you think we could make some sort of magic device to form barriers?" I wondered.

"Hmm…" Emeraldine started to think. "I honestly don't know, but most likely it could be a thing. Quite honestly, I only know how to make the very basics of things, small stuff… Things such as devices that generate barriers to protect a whole village are… quite beyond me."

"Damn it…" I sighed. "However, can it be possible? Maybe if we work together with the Dwarves? We could also borrow the aid of the Dwarven Country."

"Yeah, that sounds good." Emeraldine said. "If we all get our minds together into this, we could actually think of a possible idea that could somewhat work, I hope."

Though, I wonder if there is any Undead I could make that could somehow make a barrier? Especially one that resists Ice Attribute Magic? Is there any of such things anyways? An undead wall, or a golem made of bones could work for the walls, they would certainly be stronger than normal ones, but it would still end up being easily ignored with flying monsters.

Hey System, could there be any Undead Recipe like this?

The Soul Grimoire suddenly emerged before my eyes, as its pages flickered rapidly. And then, something showed up, several results at that. One of them was Undead Metal Slimes. They were good at shapeshifting, becoming incredibly hard, being good at resisting all elemental damage, and were amazing at self-regeneration. The only one we had right now was mercury, but we could make more of his by using his divided parts as ingredients.

Undead Metal Slimes could help reinforcing the walls, and if something happens, they could unify all into an isolation liquid metal bubble all over the entire territory… but they cannot do it underground, so we would be susceptible to underground invasion if the enemy has something that can dig and get to the other side… this is why a bubble-shaped barrier is better, protecting both above and below.

There were no Undead available that could just maintain a barrier endlessly, but I got several results, Magician Undead and other things like that. But even those guys got a finite amount of Mana and they're rather weak… It even suggested a squadron of Living Armor for defense, it does seems quite alright I guess, but not what I wanted either.

Aside from that, there's nothing much. The other thing might be raising a ton of ghosts and fusing them together using Undead Synthesis to create a massive ghost, incredibly long, that would cover everything… but this also has a lot of weaknesses and might get destroyed easily anyways, it is just a ghost, and they're not good at defense at all, I know because I am one.

However, there could be a way to fuse the principles of this idea with Necromancy, Alchemy, and Forging to create some sort of Magic Artifact that uses my powers as well to work way better…

Maybe I'll get some ideas when I talk with Emeraldine and the dwarves later.

We continued eating, deciding to just relax and enjoy the rest of the lunch, however, Brunhild who seemed mostly silent suddenly spoke.

"I think I might know something about those Ice Giants. I don't particularly know anything about a "Frost Queen" but I do know there used to be a strange Magic Artifact left behind by the gods named Skadi's Crown. It was left behind inside a hidden Dungeon where there's an Abandoned Tower of the Gods in there… I think the Ice Giants moved to live inside of that dungeon to protect themselves from the people of the outside world. This tower is something akin to their god in a way and pray to it."

"Wait so you know this stuff?!" I asked. "Also Tower Of the Gods?"

"It is an old relic of the past. In the past, Gods supossedly walked amongst the world's surface alongside the Ancient Titans and the Divine Dragons. However, the war against the Evil God broke out, or something like that. Which made the gods retreat to a different Realm. Divine Dragons and Titans went almost extinct due to the wars they went through, but left descendants behind." Brunhild said. "Lucifer, Nyx, and I are Ancient Dragons and descendants of the Divine Dragons, guardians of the world."

"So that's a thing huh." I said while thinking. "This Crown of Skadi… why was it left behind?"

"It was said that the artifact was broken and didn't worked as intended. The gods left it behind by sealing it inside a tower inside a dungeon. Nobody should had ever found such an item. If an Ice Giant woman got it and became this "Frost Queen" the crown might be slowly taking over her mind…" Brunhild seemed concerned.
