Chapter 1399 It’s Finally Over
-----
Once the tyrant's soul was broken and destroyed, a huge explosion that covered the skies was seen by all the continent's inhabitants. A rain of gray, harmless ash began to slowly fall from the darkened clouds, as the last fragments of the evil emperor's soul were devoured by Drake as he killed him.
The battle against the Beasts the tyrant had created came to a halt, as the beasts, without a creator to sustain them, quickly faded away and disappeared. The survivors sat down, completely in disbelief that the intense battle that they had trained so hard for had finally ended.
A war that seemed to have lasted an eternity, finally coming to a close at long last. As she ash fell completely, the skies opened up, revealing a beautiful blue sky, a rare occurrence in Muspelheim.
"I-Is it really over?" Agni muttered, opening his eyes as he stood up above the volcanic lands.
"It looks like we did it…" Leona smiled.
"Hahhh…"
Drake sighed in relief, his sword quickly going back to its original forms as his Spirits and Weapons floated around him, chatting about everything that had happened, though he looked really tired.
"Another of Oberon's Fragments gone, that's a relief." Sighed Belle.
"He was a mighty foe." Scarlet analyzed.
"I'm sleepy…" Gabriel didn't seem to care about anything else.
"Alright that was pretty cool! What are we smacking down next?!" Hephaestus asked eagerly.
"Calm down for a bit, Hephaestus. Let's rest for now." Uller crossed his arms.
"Master, what's gotten into you out of the sudden?" Skadi asked Drake.
"Oh? I'm fine." Drake sighed. "I am just really exhausted. Been a while since I've had such an intense battle."
"Well, you should quickly to regroup with everyone else." Ariel commented.
"Yeah, should do."
Drake quickly flew down, as he noticed the two Primordial Dragon Goddesses made of Origin Flames and Oceans of Time slowly dissipating.
"Well, this was quite the odd reencounter, but it was nice to fight together after so long, dear sister." Ran laughed, her body of water slowly dissipating.
"Likewise, Ran." Muspel smiled. "We're long gone by now, but it is nice to know that we don't have much to worry about, when there are descendants like these around."
"You couldn't had said it any better, hahahaha!"
As the two Dragoness slowly dissipated and returned to the Draconic Records, those bringing their manifestations felt extremely exhausted, falling over the floor almost instantly.
"Ugh… I'm so tired…" Benladann sighed.
"Well, I'm even more tired, to be honest!" Said Miranda.
Benladann and Miranda separated, as both returned to their "normal" shapes, Benladra and Kate also went back to their small baby forms, their giant draconic shapes not being capable of staying like that for too long.
"Mama, I'm hungry…" Benladra complained, walking towards her mum, and sitting over her stomach.
"I know~ I'm just as hungry! But let mama rest for a bit… She's really tired, you know?" Benladann laughed a bit.

"I'm hungy too." Kate appeared right over Miranda, resting over her chest.
"A-Ahahaha, well, you'll get a big feast, wait a bit…" Miranda laughed, feeling embarrassed that Kate was over her.
Drake slowly started transforming as he moved there, his appearance changing until he resembled a half-dragon Ice Giant, gently smiling at his family.
"Let's go."
He helped them recover some of their exhaustion through healing magic, and then decided to walk across the battlefield, joining up with a tired Surtr and his party, and then Agni and Leona.
"Is he really dead? We really did it?" Surtr wondered. "I… I still can't believe mom showed up."
"Me neither kid." Laughed Drake. "And even Ran too. Those powers were yours, right?"
Drake looked at the small Agni, as the boy blushed a bit, feeling embarrassed that he was being praised and recognized by the Dragon King.
"I-I did what I could, Master."
"Hahaha! There's no need to act so politely, my disciple! Let's go celebrate with a huge feast! I'll bring out my best ingredients! I'll cook up something delicious for everyone!"
The Dragon king quickly lifted up his two daughters as he carried the two with his huge, muscular arms, as he laughed jovially.
"Big feast! I'm hungy!"
"Cake…! Cheesecake!"
"Okay, okay, I get it!"
Drake laughed as his daughters kept asking him for their favorite meals. He had spoiled the two brats quite a lot, but they worked really hard now, so they deserved a lot of love.
"What should we do now that this is over? It felt like for the last weeks I've dedicated all my damn life to this moment…" Surtr laughed, feeling rather happy and melancholic.
"There's always higher heights to aim for." Drake smiled. "For now, however, we should celebrate and enjoy the present. Think about the future later, kid, you've earned yourself a good rest."
"Master… Thanks." Surtr sighed, giving Drake a rather happy and relieved smile.
"Yeah, come on now, you've earned yourself a good rest at long last!" Mina said. "Let's enjoy it!"
"I agree." Nadia nodded. "Let's eat a lot, I'm starving."
"I'm going go tell everyone what we did! Grandpa will be really happy!" Jamar was the happiest, jumping around. "I bet papa would be proud of me!"
"He sure would, Jamar." Surtr smiled, giving the Myconid a head pat over his huge mushroom cap.
Like that, they regrouped, and moved back to the mountain they worked so hard to protect. The Mountain Guardian had been active this entire time and had actually erected a Divine Barrier using his powers, which perhaps was the reason why the whole mountain didn't collapsed by all the tremors and shockwaves being sent everywhere.
"Thank you for protecting our home, brave dragons."
His voice echoed into the heads of everyone as they stepped inside the Mountain once more. The people Drake had sent inside his Divine Realm so they wouldn't risk their lives quickly stepped out, finally going back to their homes.
It was quite clear that even if he tried to, these people would never leave their homes, and they only left temporarily, planning to go back without any doubt.
And as Drake finished assembling back all of Muspelheim's bones in place using is Telekinesis, he flew back to the mountain, and joined with the rest of his family and friends.
Several of his Slime Clones were already cooking a large feast, so the only thing left was to celebrate.
