The Legend of the ruthless Empress Freya

Chapter 16 Fight Against Magni And Daggus (Part II)



-- POV Magni --

The she-wolf stood before me with a devilish grin, her aura overwhelming me as I could not breathe. How had she killed Daggus so quickly? Why didn't I feel her power earlier? Had she been lying to me all this time? She must have.

So many questions were running through my mind as I tried to make sense of the situation.

"Wha...what's going on?"

I had managed to formulate a sentence despite the unbearable pain coming from my entire body. The black she-wolf still facing me had a sly smile on her face. The submissive and fearful voice had disappeared to be replaced by a cold and dominating voice.

"What a stupid sphinx! Thank you for allowing me to carry out my plan."

As she explained what she had planned all along, I was paralyzed as I realized the stupidity of my actions. I had intended to slaughter the she-wolf and her pack once Daggus was defeated with her help, but I had ended up unconsciously helping her of my own volition.

"You are far more power-hungry than Warg, Daggus, and me combined Wolf!"

"I seek power indeed, but my main goal was to destroy the seal that holds Gaya in the mountain in the west."

Upon hearing his words I flinched...Gaya the earth dragon we had sealed 10 years ago? The mother of dragons?

"Impossible! Why would you do such a thing? Don't you know that she is the most powerful creature in this forest? If you release her, you can't claim to be the beast queen!"

I had to do everything I could to dissuade her from killing me. If she sought to be recognized as the most powerful, she would never dare to free Gaya. I would just have to swear fealty to her and patiently wait for a perfect moment to kill her and make her regret her actions!

My plan was perfect, I was perfect! Escaping death is an easy thing for me the great sphinx Magni!!!

"And? I don't care about this forest, I'm not looking to become its queen or to stay here."

Her tone was haughty and filled with disdain.

"Arrg... "

Despite the pain, I tried to continue my sentence to find out a little more.

"...But then why release Gaya? Did she threaten you? I guess..."

For someone to come up with the idea of freeing this dragoness, they must have either been crazy, ignorant, or coerced. That was the only explanation. As I thought about it, I could feel my body bleeding to death. But I could not die here, I was about to convince her. Just a little more, a little more time and everything would be back to normal.

"I am her master..."

"Eh?"

"..."

Her master? Why would a dragon as strong as Gaya obey the orders of a wolf as weak and stupid as her? My mind was spinning at a thousand miles an hour. While I had already forgotten the screams of pain in my body, an idea was brewing in my mind. A brilliant idea!

*If it turns out that she is telling the truth, I must gain the wolf's trust. I could manipulate her easily to get her to betray Gaya and get rid of her once and for all. Once done I would take care of her and become the most powerful beast mwahaha ~!!!*

My plan was perfect! Unfailing!!! I could already feel that the wolf would not kill me. She had only been able to kill Daggus because I had done the dirty work for her before, but the fact was that she was still in better shape than me. So for the moment I had to keep a low profile in order to strike better later.

*Yosh! Operation Revenge is on! Step 1: Bait her.*

"Wolf...I think we can help each other. I know a simple way for you to possess even more power than you've ever had."

"...."

*Step 2: Make her dream*

"You say you are the master of the dragon Gaya, so why not kill her to level up and become the most powerful? Together we can rule the forest and more!"

*Step 3 ...*

Before I even had time to continue my plan, I could feel the wolf's aura becoming much more powerful and overwhelming.

"BETRAY YOU SAY ????"

She was beside herself as her fur bristled on her back, her eyes were murderous, bloodshot and she snarled as she showed her fangs. I didn't know why she was reacting this way, but I had to calm the game down quickly.

"I..don't you want to evolve? How can you be sure the dragon won't betray you?"

The moment before the she-wolf was ready to kill me, and now she was smiling wryly.

"I made a contract with her."

"WHAT!!! You bonded with her?"

"Eh? Bound?"

She had bonded with Gaya. The last earth dragon in this world had bonded with the towering wolf standing before me. I couldn't believe it. I had heard years ago that a dragon chooses her mate with the utmost care. That must have meant that she wasn't just an ordinary wolf. I had underestimated her.

As she stared at me with her cold, bewitching eyes she asked me a question I wasn't expecting.

"You seem to know a lot about Gaya. Tell me what you know about her will you?"

"I...I know that she is the last of her kind still alive. I couldn't say how long ago she was born but she is known as the mother of dragons. A powerful creature at her peak and respected by all dragons (all races)."

"What else?"

"Since she was sealed, she has lost 32 levels in the last ten years due to the mana she lets out."

"How do you know that?"

"Simple...logical deduction. After all, I'm one of the people who locked her up."

I didn't know what was going on as the she-wolf jumped on my chest, crushing it with power you could hear the cracking of my bones. I was in pain...a lot of pain..and I didn't even understand her mood swings. All I could see was the anger in his eyes and his neutral face.

"You sealed it for 10 years and weakened it..WHY?"

"We...we were afraid of her power when she first moved to the west after the massacre of her clan...we.."

Before I could even finish my sentence, her fangs growled in front of my face.

"Wolf! Wait I...I can help you become more powerful!"

I was desperate as I saw them getting dangerously close. His eyes plunged into mine seemed both empty and so deep as I sank into his amethyst gaze. His paw crashed into my skull as I tried to continue my argument.

"I.. NO...AAAARRRGGH"

"Please...please!!! I can help you! Wolf!"

"Thanks but I have the system and Kira for that. Sayonara!"

*Kira ? System? What the hell is she talking about?*

Were my last thoughts as her sharp fangs tore into my face and my mind shut down to let me fall into an eternal sleep filled with questions, regrets and disappointments.

"Oh and...my name i..."

The notifications rushed past me, each one filling me with intense joy.

*Yes and we also got a lot of information about her. I am now level 21 kufufu ~*

Unlike the other times, I could feel my body growing slightly to support my new muscles. The sensation that ran through my body was indescribable, I was addicted to these physical changes. My wounds were healing but not hurting because of my resistance to pain. My body was changing and so was my mind. I was now taller, slightly shorter than a human by the looks of it I would say I was 5 feet tall on my four legs.

My mind was sharp and when I concentrated intensely, time passed much more slowly. I was lightning fast and as strong as at least 1,000 men. These changes were unbelievable and I was literally shocked at the difference in strength that this action gave me.

[Congratulations onee-san! I see that a lot has changed. With your speed of evolution, you'll be level 30 soon, I'm sure!]

*Thank you! And yes, I can't wait to be able to speak out loud! Testing my strength in human form should also be very exciting.*

Sitting on the scorched earth dreaming of the future, I began to organize the information Magni had given me before she died.

According to her, Gaya was the last of her kind and a legend in the dragon world. Magni had also told me about being related to her but I didn't know what she meant.

*What did she mean when she said I was related to Gaya?*

[I honestly don't know more about it. I think you should ask her directly].

*Mmh*

I had a feeling in my heart that something was wrong. I had the main information, but I was missing a piece of the puzzle that seemed crucial.

I had to hurry back to the West to ask him all the questions I had in mind.

*Yosh! Let's go back and find Gaya because we have a lot to do!*

[What do you mean?]

*I have to ask her some questions about her clan, about her and especially about this contract that I seem to be the only one who doesn't understand despite the fact that I'm directly concerned!*

[I have to admit that there is something we are missing. Hurry up and come back then!]

*Yes, but first...

_______

*Thank you for the meal!*

Leaving behind me the skeletons of my enemies that I had eaten, I set off again through the forest to return to the cave where Gaya was waiting for me. The path that had taken me a few days, would now only take me a few hours. Not bothering to control my strength, I went ahead because I wanted to get there as quickly as possible.

My powerful body sped by at an incredible speed, the trees turning over in my path without me touching them. I was lightning fast and extremely agile despite my imposing body. I was going to find Gaya and get all the answers to my questions.
