The Legend of the ruthless Empress Freya

-- POV Freya --

-- PING --

[ You earned 3000 EXP for killing your first humans ]

*Sigh...what a pain in the ass those two were. At least they did me some good even though they were apparently too weak to give me a decent amount of EXP. *

On our journey to the city, I didn't expect to run into humans anytime soon. I was the only one to face them because I had asked Gaya to hide beforehand. A giant wolf was conspicuous enough as it was, so if a dragon were to be added to the equation it would be dramatic. I didn't want to take any chances.

The dragoness who was coming back to me, still in her mini form asked.

"Why did you let the last one get away?"

"I wanted him to let the city know that a creature more powerful than any other had taken up residence in this forest kufufu ~"

Indeed, my idea was to let the rumor spread like wildfire in order to sow a little discord in this city. I didn't attack the humans right away either, because I also wanted to observe them, gauge their strength and get an idea of what they could do. Unfortunately I didn't get much information because the two I met seemed to be very limited intellectually.

[Onee-san, you could have let me do it !]

*Yes yes next time I'll let you use the skills, I just couldn't hold back any longer to pierce them.*

When I first met them, I had deliberately chosen not to make any movements. I also wanted to get used to their presence a bit and try to control myself so that I wouldn't freak out and raze the city once I got there...not yet. I still hated humans but I wasn't stupid and I still knew how to control myself. And then with Kira in my mind who could calm me down if the need arose I felt much more confident. My desire to kill them all was still there, but after thinking about it observation and information are very important. Even with great power I didn't want to throw myself at them without reason and without knowing anything about this world where they claimed to be superior. I had to stay hidden until the time came.

"Freya, how are we going to get into the city? You have your human form but I am still a dragon."

The dragoness had a point, but I had an idea.

"Follow me."

Returning to where I had passed the humans, I pointed to the lifeless bodies.

"I'm going to search the corpses and see if I can't find some interesting stuff. As for the rest, it will depend on what I find. However I had the idea of going back first and then having you join me somehow once I find an inn and a room."

Taking my human form which always seemed to disturb Gaya so much, I bent over the girl's body to search the bag I had consciously spared during her death. It contained a purse full of coins, an identification plate and a spare dress.

*Who's dumb enough to think of changing in the middle of a mission?*

[She apparently.]

*Anyway, it's perfect, I've solved my clothing problem! Her death finally served me well kufufufu ~*

So I put on the white dress that fit me perfectly and that should contrast well with the color of my hair before moving to the body of the man that I had found much too noisy. He had the same plate and also a purse of coins but that was all he had.

"Yosh! So we have 1 gold coin, 60 silver and 50 bronze. I still don't know if it's much but maybe we can afford a room, a bath and a meal."

The plates they carried seemed to be used as identification cards. They showed name, class, occupation, and level.

*It's not too useful to me because with my analysis skill I can easily access this information.*

[But you didn't even take the time to do it with them... why?]

*Well, let's just say I wanted to get an idea of their powers directly, rather than relying on my skill and finding out so easily. If I wanted to I could even kill them without them having to see me, but where's the fun in that?*

[Are you going to absorb the bodies here too?]

*No. I don't need to absorb them with devouring chaos because they wouldn't bring me anything. Let them be eaten by the same creatures they used to hunt.*

[Perfect and quite ironic.]

Now that I had a dress, I couldn't take my wolf form without tearing it, so I decided to continue on foot to the city. And if I had to cross paths with humans, I preferred to do it in my humanoid form, as it would be much less interesting for me. While walking, I thought of a way for Gaya to join me in all discretion.

"Tell me Gaya..."

"Yes Freya?"

"Can you fly when you are so small?"

I had a plan in mind but for that she had to be able to fly.

"I can fly yes, why?"

"I'd like you to join me at night when it's dark. How long will it take you to be able to return to your form?"

The fact that Gaya was still stuck in her dragon form made our movements very restricted until she recovered to be able to come out into the light.

"I thought it would take me several weeks, but your mana seems special, within a few days my circuits will be strong enough to be able to recover my MP and store it."

Asking no more questions, Freya's fiancée had realized that there was no point in forcing her to reveal her secrets. At some point, when she was ready, Gaya knew Freya would tell her everything.

"Perfect, so for now follow me and when the city is in sight I will unfortunately have to ask you to stay in the forest until I come to get you when it gets dark."

[I do indeed think this is the best solution onee-san.]

*Yosh let's go! Once installed we will check all the changes of the evolution. I will also be able to distribute my attribute points quietly and above all comfortably !*

In my human form and accompanied by Kira and Gaya, walking in the direction from which the humans came, we soon arrived in Yarlford.

-- POV nameless guardian --

*It's already early afternoon and I still haven't eaten. Damn guard duty! I'm up all day watching when I could be in the pub.*

I really didn't like standing around doing nothing while others were probably having fun, but I had to earn a living somehow.

I was hoping today would be different and exciting, when suddenly I saw her.

A young woman in the distance, coming out of the forest dressed in a white dress and..barefoot??

"Hello Miss. Why do you wish to entry in Yarlford?"

When she reached my height, I asked her the question that we guards were obliged to ask every new visitor. The young woman raised her head at my question and I was literally seized on the spot. She was beautiful. Her intense gaze made me tremble as I could feel her natural aura petrifying me. She didn't smile and had a neutral face which made her even more enigmatic and frightening.

She opened her lips and I could hear her voice.

"I wish to enter. Is it forbidden?"

Her voice was calm, cold and commanding. Ignoring the chill down my spine I told her that she had to show me her badge and that if she didn't have it the entrance was at the price of a silver coin. The mysterious girl paid and I could see her walking away into the streets of Yarlford as one of my colleagues approached me.

"Hey I came to replace you so you..."

"..."

"What the hell is wrong with you? Have you seen a ghost hahaha ~ ?"

No. But I had just seen the most beautiful and scary woman in my life.

I would only learn much later that she was the cause of the tragedy that would soon strike our city.

-- POV Freya --

Leaving Gaya in the forest, I entered the city and looked around. There were large cobblestone streets filled with stores of all kinds. Humans were swarming like ants and all seemed busy doing their own thing. As I walked through the streets looking for an inn I could see that there were no free half-humans on the streets. The only ones I could see were chained in cages with collars around their necks or begging in the streets after or before being beaten by a human.

*Tsk, this city disgusts me. How can they treat almost fellow human beings so cruelly?*

I held back my urge to kill and my aura as much as possible to avoid being noticed, but this sad sight of discrimination and slavery was hard to bear.

[We'll see about that later onee-san, look there's an inn!]

Heading inside without further ado, I ordered a room for two nights at the price of 100 bronze coins (50 per night). Lowering my head to hide my face and going up to my room, ignoring the eyes, I closed the door to finally be at peace. The room was small, with a table, a wardrobe and a bed. It was the bare minimum and although the bed seemed to be full of bacteria I lay down on it delicately so as not to break it to take stock.

*First of all I have to take care of this huge number of attribute points.*

I hadn't opened my status since my evolution so I had a lot of things to check before I could take a bath, go out or eat.

*50 points each should do the trick.*

I could feel my body getting stronger again as a moan of satisfaction unconsciously came out of my mouth. This feeling was still incredible even though I had gotten used to it over time.

I stood up to test the fluidity of my body, which felt even lighter, more flexible, faster and more powerful. Grabbing the chair from the table in my room to sit down, a cracking sound was heard as one part stayed in my hand and the other fell to the floor.

"Damn! I need to get used to this new strength!"

As I sat down on the broken chair, I asked Kira to keep me informed of my new changes.

[Onee-san you have mainly gained HP, MP and level up your skills. However, your skills haven't changed, some of them have different names but they are the same as a few days ago. To know now how much you spend on each use, you have to look at each skill in detail].

"Oh? I thought I had something new, I'm disappointed."

I spoke out loud because I was alone with Kira in my room at the inn, I didn't need to converse with her in my mind at the moment.

[You just started your course evolution so you don't have to worry, the system should have quite a few things planned for the future].

"You're right! Right now I need a good bath. I still paid 10 bronze coins extra to have this option. I hope the water is hot or I destroy this town kufufufu ~"

[All to the shelters pfffhahaha ~....wait...it's a joke, right ?]

"Hahaha ~ Come on, it's almost dark so let's head for the bath! You can show me my skills in detail once I'm nice and relaxed in a tub of hot water!"

As I headed to the bathroom, in an alleyway not far away, a little thing was staggering around, hurt and hungry.
