The Legend of the ruthless Empress Freya

-- POV Freya --

Gaya had just told me that she was finally going to be able to take her human form, which was great news since we had to leave tomorrow. I was also looking forward to seeing what she might look like.

"That's great, your circuits fixed themselves pretty quickly !"

"Yes ! I've been getting a lot of sleep which has allowed my mana to flow more smoothly over the past few days, so I'm healed !"

She was happy and I understood her, it had been over 10 years now that she was stuck in her dragon body. So I opened her status to see what was going on.

These stats were lower than mine especially in attributes but it had to be said that I had a system and points that made my growth a high speed train. Everything seemed perfect and considering her level without taking me as an example one could say that she was very powerful.

"I'm going to go to sleep I'm still a little tired because I stayed up all night waiting for you."

"You're right, go to bed, I still need to see quite a few of my changes with Kira."

"Good night Freya and good night Kira."

"Good night Gaya."

[Good night.]

It was time for me to check on all the changes that had taken place during my little escapade in the mansion. I wasn't going to look at the notification history so I asked Kira to give me like a presentation of my changes as I listened carefully.

[So to start with you got attribute points but I won't dwell on that because you already know how to use them. You now have two new skills that involve ice because that's your main element].

*Please tell me the details of each one.*

[Natural Aura of the Ice Empress (passive) - a natural, passive aura (cannot be controlled) that represents the host's anger gauge. The angrier the host is, the colder the air around her becomes. Linked to the skill "Empress's Domain"]

*She doesn't spend any MP because she is passive, pretty cool. Now I understand better why as soon as I entered the mansion the air was getting colder and colder...my anger kept rising.*

[That's not all onee-san, this skill is also related to the second one you got when you lost control].

*Go ahead and show me.*

[Ice Empress Domain "Frozen Wrath" (lvl 1) - (under condition) - linked to the skill "Natural aura of the Ice Empress" this skill is an extension of it and is automatically activated when the host has reached a huge anger. A domain of ice is then created 200 meters around the host locking the enemies inside. If hostile intent is detected, spikes of ice immediately pierce the individual who caused it.

Cannot be controlled at this time. ]

*Oooh! That's exactly what happened, but what does it mean that I can't control it ?*

[It means that you can't activate your domain on your own right now. Your domain will only appear if you are angry enough. The more you use it, the easier it will be for you to control it and activate it whenever you want. You're also spending 10,000 MP so be careful].

*I see...what about my allies in the area ?*

[Your allies are not listed because it goes without saying that they will not be harmed because only the cold and the attacks act if the individual has a murderous intent].

*Well, that's really convenient ! I hope I won't have to use it in the next few days, I don't often get that angry. What else is there ?*

[You have a counter that shows the number of humans killed but as the system said, it's useless and is just there as a personal trophy. The last big change is the Kingdom menu which has been activated by your first 100 subordinates].

*Can you open this menu Kira ?*

*Well, it's not a joke ! When did my life become a management game ?*

I was shocked to see all these empty fields that I hope will be filled soon, but I didn't really know what this menu was for.

*Kira, do you know exactly what this menu is for ? Besides seeing my information about the Kingdom, is there any other use ?*

[Yes, there is a lot, for the moment everything is empty, but I will explain. All your subordinates who have pledged allegiance to you will find it easier to level. Let's say up to 20%, which is already a lot in this world. If you do well, your Kingdom should gradually become powerful...very powerful. In addition, those you appoint to the listed positions can be contacted telepathically even if you are not close to them, to make it easier to manage the kingdom when you are away. They...]

*Wait, this is great ! Not only will my subordinates be faster to level for those who train, but I'll be able to manage my Kingdom from afar !! Which means I still have to think about who I appoint to these positions !*

[Yes ! I told you it was useful. Besides, it is possible to change the subordinates and/or set more than one person in the same position so you don't have to worry about it].

*You can continue, sorry for interrupting you !*

[Ahem ! So uh posts can be added by the system if it deems necessary so other than everything I told you before, for now that's it for the Kingdom menu].

At the moment it wasn't doing me much good because I wasn't even in the place where I wanted to start my kingdom yet. I had to name it but I had no idea what I was going to call it...I hadn't thought about it.

*Arg it can wait! I'm going to divide my attribute points !*

Defense: 301 > 336

Stamina : 303 > 353

______

I had decided to focus on endurance, agility and speed because in a fight in my humanoid form I would be at an advantage. I already had enormous strength and a very good defense so I preferred to optimize my current body to make it even faster, more agile and enduring.

I could feel my body changing again but this time I could feel it becoming more flexible, lighter and more energetic. I could feel every part of my body to a degree that is impossible for a human being, everything was more fluid and graceful in my movements.

*Wow, this feeling is not the same as the first few times but I definitely feel more in tune with my body !*

Grabbing the katana that I had taken from the lord, I started to make some movements discreetly in the room without waking up the two who were sleeping peacefully.

[When you move it almost looks like you are dancing onee-san !]

*It's true that I feel more graceful and then this katana definitely didn't belong to this lord, I don't know where he found it but it's a wonder. And believe me, I know all about it !*

It was an entirely black sword, even its blade was dark and shiny. It was light, sharp and made with incredible precision and perfection. I didn't know who had forged it, and I may never know, but this weapon was now mine.

Sitting back down on the chair I had broken a few days ago, I asked Kira the question that had been on my mind for a while.

*So tell me what I need to know about the titles, you said they gave me advantages, right ? Why didn't you say anything ?*

[I didn't think it was necessary at the moment and to be honest I wanted you to wait a little while before seeing Gaya's title].

*Explain to me what you mean by that..you know I don't like to be played with..*

The air was already starting to get slightly colder as Kira tried to explain.

[Wait onee-san, don't get angry and listen to me. First I'll explain the advantages of your titles. The title blessed by goddess titania is not of much use to you anymore because it is thanks to this title that you have a special course, two elements and a system. Then there is dragon tamer, which is automatic since you are engaged to Gaya, it only allows you to be the only one able to ride on her back when she is in her adult dragon form. And finally the title Ruthless slayer gives you a bit more EXP when you kill your enemies while they are begging].

*I see, yes it's not extremely useful compared to some of the other skills I have. But what does it have to do with Gaya ?*

[Well...Gaya's title is "Last of Her Kind" and has been unlocked since you formed the contract...]

*...*

[I'll leave her description to you, you'll see for yourself onee-san].

As Kira finished speaking, a window showing me Gaya's status appeared displaying her title. There before my eyes I finally saw the details of her title and I understood why Kira hadn't told me about it herself.

[Last of her kind (unlocked) - title allowing the individual concerned to bear offspring, whether his or her partner is male or female, in order to protect the lineage and the race. ]

I couldn't believe my eyes. As I read the description I felt my ears redden and warm slightly for the first time as I quietly turned my head to Gaya. I had never thought about this kind of thing before so I was caught off guard not knowing what to say. It was a very important title that would allow Gaya to have descendants and not see her race totally disappear.

*I...If I have children with her, will they be dragon or wolf ? Aarg what I'm thinking about ! This is not the time !*

[Pfffhaha ~ You have the right to ask yourself that question since you are concerned onee-san. No matter what happens, her children will be yours. Even if you finally decide that you don't have feelings for her...Gaya will never use her title because she has bonded with you and no one else].

*That's right...*

I kept looking in Gaya's direction as if she could hear my conversation with Kira. I had already spent time with her and I had to admit that I liked her more and more naturally even forgetting the contract sometimes. I had never been in love so I didn't really know what it felt like but after learning about Gaya's title my heart kept drumming against my chest every time I thought about her.

*Kira how do you know when you like someone romantically ?*

[Onee-san I have no idea, I don't even have a body so I really can't help you...but I guess you can feel it...]

I couldn't tell if it was love I felt for this dragoness, but if my heart decided that it was, I would gladly accept it. Never before had a thought like that crossed my mind but I could feel myself changing little by little. Not because I was becoming less cruel or less cold, but because I was opening my heart to others..and not just anyone..Kira..Gaya and Shiro.

I didn't know it yet, but when I woke up, this heart that had been silent until that moment, was going to be put to the test again.
