At the Field, Dragon Realm~

Lucy's P.O.V

I was in the middle of training close combat techniques with Metallicana and Loke, as usual they would grab any chance they could get to get close to me.

Earlier today with Alodiculis, I discovered my other Dragon magic, Ice, it went surprisingly simply actually.

A few hours back~

Lucy's P.O.V

I looked at Alodiculis with a raised eyebrow. "Seriously? You want me to put my hand in the water?" I asked him incredulously. What good would that do?

Alodiculis had just told me that I would discover my magic quicker if I put my hand in the river-water. I had absolutely no idea what he was talking about.

The silver Dragon nodded. "Ae (Yes) I want you to put your hand in the water." He looked down at me and sighed. "Just do it, Lucy, trust me." He told me.

I looked skeptically at him once more before letting my Peace magic surround me. For a short period of time, all I could see was silver, then I felt it through my body as I changed form in a split second, and the silver disappeared again, leaving me standing on two legs.

I went to the river-bank and dipped my hand into the cold water. I felt a shiver run down my spine as I submerged my hand in the water.

Lately it had been getting pretty cold around here, it was soon winter. Usually when I took the morning bath with the other ladies, we would let Amelane blend her own, warmer water with the cold river-water till it had a comfortable temperature.

I looked up at the silver Dragon with a questioning expression. His Amber eyes met my brown ones. "As I'm sure you know, we're looking for your Ice magic." He told me and looked around. "The conditions are just right." He added with a nod.

It was several weeks ago I had met my Dragon and unlocked my full Peace magic. I had been practicing the attacks with my Peace magic, using some of the things I had been learning with Loke and Metallicana. I had been begging for Alodiculis to help me find the new magic I would be training with, but he always refused, saying 'The time isn't right'. But today was the day!

I nodded. It wasn't difficult to figure out what magic I would be finding was. It was either Water or Ice magic, but considering I had my fingers in ice cold water, I figured it would be Ice magic. "Yeah. What am I supposed to do?" I asked him, eager to get the training with my Ice magic started.

He tilted his head ever so slightly. "You're supposed to freeze the water." He told me plainly.

I looked surprised up at him. "What?! How am I going to do that? I don't have any Ice magic!" I told him frustrated.

He nodded. "Ae (Yes), you do, you just haven't found it yet." He told me. Before I could reply, he continued talking. Looking at the river. "Well, this is supposed to awaken your Ice magic." He looked down at me again. "You see, this water is very cold today, which is why I picked today. If your Ice magic haven't awakened in an hour, the blood-flow to your hand will freeze completely, and you will lose your hand." He told me with a straight face.
