The Legend of the ruthless Empress Freya

[N/A: Don't forget to read my note at the end]

________

-- POV Freya --

The battle was already raging in the clearing as I found myself facing the 21 adventurers who had followed me further in, intrigued. Luckily they were not in solidarity with the mercenaries and had sensed my power, which I had released slightly, making things easier.

[The leader seems to be this Kirk who is a level 29 mage of the fire element. There's also Sam level 27 who seems to be pretty skilled but nothing you can't handle].

*Tsk the receptionist and that bogus information ! But thanks for the information Kira. I'm not interested in the mage, even tied up I don't know what he's capable of doing until I find a way to seal the magic.*

[What are you going to do with him then ?]

*Kufufu~ Kill him of course ! Capturing Sam would be more beneficial for gathering information, the others will serve as my EXP. I asked to capture at least the mercenary leader and a few others so that my dear subordinates and warriors can have some fun later on.*

[So have a good lu...no...have fun !]

*Kufufu~ of course.*

The other 19 adventurers were between 17 and 20, so I didn't have much of a problem. I wanted to have fun and test my power with and without my elements so I was going to play with them a bit. I stood under the dark trees with none of them really able to see me as Kirk spoke up.

"You ! Come out and show yourself ! Are you the one behind this attack ?"

He sounded quite confident even though he was no stronger than a shrimp.

"Are you afraid of us ? Or of me maybe ? haha~"

[Oh oh...]

Young Kirk had broken one of the rules that should not be broken under pain of death. I had already planned to make him suffer, but it turned out that I was now going to enjoy it much more. I came out of the shadows of the trees and stood in front of them, and they took a step back when they saw me. The chief had not moved but his companions had all instinctively stepped back at the sight of me, surprised and shocked at my appearance.

Still in silence, I scanned this band of humans with my piercing and threatening gaze. The leader had lost his words before he pulled himself together and addressed me again.

"You are the creature responsible for this ?"

Raising my head in disdain I ignored his question to ask him my own.

"Do you think you are strong enough to leave your prisoners unattended ?"

My voice was calm and showed no indication of my state of mind. I knew how to hide my emotions perfectly and this cold voice of mine was natural. When I spoke to humans, I was always cold anyway. As he looked at me with a smile on his face Kirk replied.

"Pfffhahaha~ Obviously ! And then the mercenaries will do their job well, I don't think they can lose at 50 to 10 ! I can see why you wanted to take us on to keep your little friends from getting hurt against us...wise move."

*Mmmh no actually I only wanted to have you all to myself but if you are convinced otherwise then you can die with that belief, I don't care.*

Seeing that I still did not answer, the little human raised his hand and said.

"Get away from me ! I'll take care of her myself. Stay here and don't let anyone intervene."

*Oh ? Human, do you really think you can defeat me alone ?*

He seemed sure of himself which amused me a lot knowing the difference of level that there was between us. I placed myself in front of him while his companions moved back several hundred meters, surrounding us and creating an arena.

"Don't mind if I keep you around afterwards, I have to say you look pretty gorgeous for a half human. Too bad you weren't born without that tail and ears, I could have made you my wife...I'd just put you in my bed tonight. Be honored you filthy creature !"

*Honored ? While a beauty like Gaya is waiting for me at the camp ?*

My neutral face finally moved as I consciously frowned at these words. The air was getting cold around me, but I controlled my anger to enjoy and revel in the moment her life would leave her body.

Kirk laughed loudly as I pulled my katana from its scabbard and walked slowly toward him. We were fifty yards apart as he regained his seriousness to incant and conjure up a fire whip of incredible length.

"That's how you tame the beasts, my dear ! Come here so I can teach you some manners !"

The adventurers behind laughed seing their leader's confidence while I closed my eyes to take deep breaths. I didn't want to finish them all off instantly so I had to concentrate on not getting angry. It was time to attack.

Clutching my katana, I launched myself at him, careful not to show my full power. His whip cracked loudly as the adventurer sent it at me, leaving trails of flame behind and cutting through all the trees around. With my flexibility, agility and intelligence I could see all the blows coming at me as I dodged and maintained my speed.

[Watch your left !]

His whip was so long that even with its base facing to the right, the tip could hit me on the left. It was glowing and burning all around him as I approached Kirk, who was already beginning to incant to form an armor of flames.

*This is getting interesting !*

I was launching myself again but this time with more power to spin around him as his head searched for me and his whip snapped in the air seeking my skin.

"So human is all you got ?"

I spun like the wind as Kirk couldn't even guess or know my location.

*It's time to have some fun...*

-- POV Kirk --

I was dressed in my flame armor as the half-human ran in all directions, everywhere and nowhere at once. She was fast, much too fast, and could appear from anywhere. Thinking I saw her behind me, with a swing of my right arm, my whip crashed into a tree behind my back without touching even a bit of her flesh.

"Above !"

A voice could be heard overhead as I looked up to see the half-human. She was coming at me with a forward foot that hit me right in the arm despite my armor that didn't seem to hurt her.

"Aaaaarg !!"

My left arm was literally shattered and hanging as if it was dead. The pain was so horrible that I could barely control my mana and keep my armor on. Looking up in rage at the half human, I could see that she was standing in front of me with her cold, neutral face.

"I'm disappointed.."

"You...you're hiding your strength ?"

Sighing and not giving me an answer, she leaned forward in an attacking stance, beckoning me to attack with her finger. Her gesture was filled with condescension as the anger rose more and more within me. Ignoring the pain, I threw my whip in her direction as she seemed to playfully avoid it with wide, controlled movements. The half-human was clearly not normal to resist this. Usually as a level 29 I only need to use it once to burn the legs off my opponents.

"All of you ! Come and help m..."

I hadn't even finished my sentence when she had already anticipated and created 4 walls of ice to isolate us. I was alone with her cracking her neck as she spoke.

"Well...can you repeat what you were telling me earlier, right to my face ?"

Her question was simple but being terrified and confused I didn't dare answer. Her presence became unbearable as she got closer to me always slowly, second by second. The time seemed infinite and my body was shaking all by itself while I felt my legs giving way under my weight.

"Are you sure you are level 29 ? You are far too weak."

Her voice was cold and full of disdain as she stopped right in front of me looking down on me with a hard look. I was on my knees before this supposedly inferior race and my arm had turned blue. The veins inside had exploded with the power of the blow in such a way that I still wondered how my arm was still hanging on.

"So...Are you going to repeat your sentence ? Go ahead I'm listening !"

Her presence was such that her words were like orders not to be broken. Without even thinking I began to repeat my previous words stupidly.

"To...too bad you weren't born without...without that tail and ears I....I could have made you my w...wife...I'd just put you in...in my bed tonight...be honored."

As I finished, the woman shook her head in disappointment.

"No no no, you forgot the best part ! Finish the sentence or you die right away..."

I could still fight with my whip but it was useless against her. My armor didn't work well because of my arm and anyway it didn't stop her. I could only obey hoping for mercy.

"Filthy...c..creature."

I had barely finished my sentence when a violent kick hit my right arm which also broke into pieces.

"Yeah that's what I wanted to hear !"

The pain had rendered me speechless as my mouth opened without making a single sound. Lowering my head to look at my arm I gasped as I saw this monster of a woman crouching next to me staring at me.

"You could scream a little bit though. You see...I really didn't like all those things you said to me, I almost got angry."

I couldn't believe that she wasn't angry at that very moment. To me she was terrifying and by being calm it made the experience even more horrifying. I couldn't help but think what I would have become if I had actually made her angry.

"If I remember correctly you also wanted to tame me didn't you. Let's play, shall we ?

"..."

"See that little hole in the wall ? It can only let through a small body like yours. If you can get out of there before five minutes I'll let you live."

She was indeed pointing to a small passage at the level of the ice wall where I could easily crawl through. This was my chance. Nodding silently, she stood up with an excited gleam in her eyes.

*I have to run ! The hole is only a few meters away !*

I started to run when a blade suddenly cut my legs at the calf level. I could see the bone as I screamed this time at the top of my lungs as blood spurted over me and her.

"Ara~ Didn't I tell you ? You are not allowed to run kufufu~"

I could see her licking the blood that had landed on her lips as a savage, sadistic smile appeared on her face. I was standing before the devil herself.

"Tick..tock..hurry up."

Struggling not to faint, I began to crawl in my own blood that was flowing freely. My vision blurred with tears as I used my last bit of strength to reach the hole that was my only salvation.

I was using my broken arms despite the pain, I could hear the bones cracking each time I crawled a little further. The woman was following me smiling silently and seemed to be enjoying herself immensely.

"Aaaarg !"

My strength was failing me as I struggled, I couldn't feel my legs or arms, yet I kept going with determination. I had only one more meter to go to stay alive.

*Almost...just a little longer...*

As I was about to touch the icy wall with my blue fingertips, boots crashed into my hand causing me to scream again as a horrific laughter echoed.

"Did you really think I would let you go ? I only wanted the pleasure of watching you crawl away like the insect you are. In this forest you are nothing, a mere gnat who thinks he is powerful by tormenting the weak."

With these words she grabbed me by the neck to lift me off the ground.

*N..no !*

I felt her hand forcefully pierce my chest causing blood to spurt on her face turning it red. She moved my ribs and searched my insides before pulling out my heart. The last thing I saw was her beautiful face that to me represented death, licking and biting into my still warm heart with a monstrous satisfied smile.

-- POV General --

Not far from the clearing stood four walls of ice rising high into the sky. As they fell simultaneously, the adventurers could see the body of their leader lying lifeless and unrecognizable. Freya stood over him with blood on her mouth and his heart in her hands.

"Mo...monster !!!"

Kirk's companions mourned his death and could not understand how he could have lost to her as anger mounted. In a powerful voice Sam raised his hammer, shouting.

"Let's kill her ! Let us avenge our fallen comrade valiantly !!!"

As the final battle began, 9 women arrived on the scene smiling, happy to be able to witness the spectacle.
