The Legend of the ruthless Empress Freya

Chapter 230 Act Three: The Princess Of Monsters And The Hero Knight I

- General POV -

"ROOOOAAAAAAR !!!"

It was with the mighty roar of a dragon with a jaw dripping with blood that the second act of this deadly play ended. Of the three humans who had been taken away, only two remained, having witnessed the death of their comrade. The Queen was still in the middle, ablaze in a multitude of red flames crackling around her bestial form, like a glowing sun.

Gaya's anger still hadn't subsided despite the satisfaction of finally torturing and killing the man she had faced during the war. The beautiful crimson-haired woman had put on a show as terrifying and dignified as her title but after all these emotions, she was exhausted. Lowering her huge dragon head, she stopped to look at the crowd with her amber reptilian eyes causing a general kneeling.

On their knees, everyone trembled at the fiery and beautiful creature before them, the Mother of Dragons, Queen of the Empire and wife of Freya. All of the soldiers present realized once again how powerful those who could transform were. The Empress in her black-horned wolf form straight from Hell, the Princess in her three-tailed demon fox form, and of course the Chaos Commanders since their evolution.

As silence returned to the coliseum, suddenly Gaya's bestial body began to change, a sign that she was returning to her humanoid form. She was still recovering from her injuries received during the war and still felt weakened even if they were not serious. So, very soon the Queen that everyone knew reappeared in the middle of the arena, her bloody clothes falling apart revealing her pearly skin.

On her body, scales were still visible forming a garment covering her private parts but also disappearing very quickly, the more she became human again. Barefoot on the ground, Gaya was still staggering from exhaustion, ready to fall to the ground at any second. Suddenly, just as her legs were finally failing her, a fox girl with three silver tails came to catch her.

"Gaya"

Princess Kira had left her cloak to catch up to her sister-in-law and cover her so she wouldn't be naked in front of the overly curious crowd. She had placed herself behind her in order to put the garment on her shoulders and keep her with her body from falling backwards. Finally covered with a sheet, the remains of scales disappeared but this time her ears remained pointed and her horns visible.

"T-Thank you~"

"It's nothing~"

Suddenly, as Kira replied with a smile, a gust of wind began to blow their crimson and silver hair away all at once. The next moment, the Empress still with the white hair was at their side, appearing out of nowhere, as if teleported. Without saying a word, Freya gently picked up her wife and carried her like a princess, turning to her sister and nodding her head in thanks.

Then, once she was sure that the exhausted Gaya was wrapped in her cloak, she would turn her head slowly towards the crowd and glare at them. Everyone had had their eyes on the Queen when she was about to get naked, and without Kira's intervention, it would have happened. So the Empress had her penetrating and cold gaze on the spectators, who all felt their breathing quicken, understanding without her having to speak.

Very protective of her soul mate, her reaction had been instinctive and her icy aura was still floating in the air, this time towards the crowd. However, it was still going to be a long night so judging that this warning was enough, Freya turned around to go back to the platform. Just as she was about to disappear again, with her Queen in her arms, Myles' voice came from his ice wall.

"I-It's you !!! The demon from the Age of extinction !!! The Supreme was right !!!"

The former leader of the Knights had his eyes fixed on the scene and saw for the first time that the Empress was not just a red-haired demon or a wolf with fur as black as night. Before his eyes, the being that the leader of the Church had described was here, in this forest as he had predicted all along. He had no doubt anymore, for this human, Freya was none other than this being come to exterminate Humanity again.

"M-Monster !!! Demon !!! You may have won a battle but you will never win the war ! Hahahahaha~ thousands of years have passed, humans are stronger, smarter, more murderous than before and your kind are crawling at our feet !!!"

While Leto had been supplicant, cowardly and treacherous, Myles was showing a very interesting resistance despite the situation, explainable by his anger. He was spitting, he had no legs left at knee level but he was using his arms to struggle with the threads of blood. Animated by his hatred and destabilized by the spectacle he had witnessed, instead of being terrified as before, the man even seemed to have become more courageous.

"I will kill you !!! And if not me, Humanity will take care of exterminating all of you before you even think of annihilating us !!! Three-faced demon, creature of the underworld, your days are numbered ! We know of your existence HAHAHAHA~!!!"

The human had laughed hysterically, caught in a wave of mad anger, a sign that his mind had opted for this option to avoid pure madness. Freya had heard everything but still disappeared with her wife in her arms while he continued to laugh and rant. She could be seen appearing on the platform to place Gaya on her throne as the nine Commanders present and the prisoner Jade looked on.

"You're screwed up Empress of the Monsters !!! If I could I would have killed you all myself ! If it weren't for your dangerous physical abilities, we would have annihilated you all without exception ! You are lucky that this demonic creature is protecting you, YES YOU ALL ! One day Humanity will make it disappear and you with it so that finally..."

But, Myles hadn't even finished his sentence when suddenly, like a flash, the Empress was in front of him several feet off the ground and inches from his face. Wings of ice had formed in her back, her hair as white as Shiro's floating behind her in the rhythm of the wind she was causing. Without a word, Freya snapped her fingers making the wall of ice collapse and the bloody threads that bound him disappear.

"Arg !"

It was now the former Captain of the Knights' turn to crash to the ground, anger still evident on his face. He was scared, he was shaking but that defiant feeling he gave off had not disappeared to the surprise of the crowd. Still in the air, the she-wolf took back the color of her naturally black hair as she turned her head towards her sister who was watching everything from a little further away with a smile.

"Let's see it then, since that's what you want, onee-san, fufu~"

Immediately understanding what she meant, the three-tailed silver Princess smiled wider while hopping towards her scythe planted in the ground. Still barefoot, she grabbed her weapon with ease, before twirling it around in style. Freya, on the other hand, would make her ice wings disappear in one fell swoop, letting gravity pull her back to the ground before she finally spoke her first words.please visit pαпᵈα-:)ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.co)m

"My sister has evolved to level 20, you are level 40 show us what you can do, human. Show everyone here how superior your race is...if you think you can defeat the one you call Empress of the monsters, then their Princess shouldn't be a problem."

Since the war, the young Kira had moved up five levels after facing a paladin far more powerful than her in terms of experience. Fortunately, having the same blood as her older sister, even though the difference in level had been enormous, at the cost of much courage, the Princess had overcome. At Freya's words, Myles looked at his legs, then at Kira, then at his legs, wondering if she wasn't completely stupid.

With another snap of her fingers, the parts of his legs that had been torn off formed not into flesh but into ice again. Thanks to the funeral, the Empress had learned to manipulate her element from mana directly from living beings. Thus, like the ancient Goddess she was, she could partially restore the man's mobility, just long enough for him to prove what he had started to scream earlier.

pαndα noνɐ1,сoМ "Problem solved. Just like that, you should be able to do it, right ? 20 levels difference to your advantage, so you have nothing to be afraid of~"

Freya's tone was mocking but her voice and face was cold and contemptuous, the night was just beginning but all the revelations so far had pissed her off. Seeing the former Knight's courage as a means of entertainment, she let her little sister take care of humiliating him. Pulling her own katana from its scabbard as a provocation, the Empress would throw it at the human's feet before leaving for the platform again.

"My friends, act three is finally here ! Let's see how it will end...who will be victorious, who will be defeated ? The Princess of Monsters or the Hero Knight ?!"

Kira, on the other hand, had a smile on her face and her good mood was easily transmitted to the rest of the spectators who discovered a little more of her personality. Playful, teasing, funny and always with a sly smile on her face, she might look like her sister, but they were very different. After seeing the great power of the Queen, the crowd, enthralled by this fake play, was eager to see the Princess at work.

The man had picked up the she-wolf's black blade, understanding at a glance that this was an exceptional weapon. It didn't take him long to get used to her legs, Freya having taken great care to link the severed nerves with her mana for perfect compatibility. So, as she had announced earlier, act three was about to begin, pitting the Princess of Elysium against the human who thought he was a hero.

"Are you ready, O human claiming to be able to kill the Devil herself~ ?"

Kira giggled as she slowly approached the knight, her three tails swaying behind her, showing her hard to hide enthusiasm. Her dimples were apparent, and when she smiled, many people were caught blushing at her living beauty. Coming within a few feet of her opponent, the fox girl placed her left arm behind her back, raising her head to look at him with a superior air as she spoke.

"Look, I even promise to use only my right arm haha~"

"Y-You..."

The Knight this time was shaking with anger, not wanting to let this opportunity pass him by and felt a new strength flow through him. He was wounded, in the middle of an arena standing in a city of monsters, facing their Princess but he was determined. No plan was in Myles' head, all he wanted was to kill at least the one who mocked and underestimated him, he a level 40, Captain of the proud Knights of Zal.

"You won't underestimate me for long !!!"

Throwing himself at Kira first, the human concentrated on letting all his knowledge as a Captain speak, attacking strategically even in anger. He had brandished the katana above his head and was about to bring it down on the head of the young woman who had not moved at all. Raising her right arm, the black and red blade of her scythe came immediately to parry the blow intended to cut her throat.

If Freya had held the weapon at that moment, her scythe would have shattered instantly but in front of her was a weakened human, full of pathetic dreams of glory in his mind. With her left arm still behind her back, Kira turned her weapon to send the handle into Myles' ribs. The latter would manage to dodge without seeing the second blow that was coming to sweep his legs of ice and make him bite the dust.

"Uurg !!!"

"This is how you want to defeat the Empress ? Tch, pathetic !"

The young woman stood over him, looking at him with her cold, glowing violet eyes just above the black sky of the Empire. Of course, the man didn't realize it, but his physical abilities had diminished greatly since the war and his injuries. In reality, he didn't stand a chance against Kira who, even with 20 levels less, was endowed with a body that made her one of Lucifer's most powerful Sin Demons.

"I will kill you !!!"

Sweeping his arm overhead, the black blade passed within inches of the girl's eyes as she jumped to dodge. The human would not give up, Leto's blood still stained the dirt floor of the coliseum and his desire for revenge was real. Once again, he would arrive at Kira to force her to face him without disadvantage, much more concerned with his human ego to see that she gave him one more chance.

"Die !"

Still, Myles' movements were powerful, precise, and without the incredible agility she displayed, the Princess could have been hit many times. Yet she knew how to use her space, her whole body though physically in this world for a short time. With a different grace than the Empress who was more savage, Kira offered a mesmerizing acrobatic fight to the speechless warriors.

She twirled between each attack, her left hand behind her back but using her feet, her weapon to avoid each fatal blow. Her smile did not disappear from her face, the more time passed the more she enjoyed herself, having the impression to play with a poor human of company. But soon she would go on the attack and would remind everyone that she had no demon but the horn, she was Kira Nightshade, Lucifer's right hand.
