The Legend of the ruthless Empress Freya

- POV Freya -

It was midnight, the dark night had given way to the light of the moon which illuminated the coliseum a little more than the enormous flaming braziers all around. Leto had died at Gaya's hand after having given us all the information he knew about the Supreme of the Church. Myles had been taken over by Kira and could only submit, while the King...well, the man who had been stripped of his title was now totally mine.

With my Death Gaze skill I had managed to break him enough to sway his resolve during the war and even after. Then, after showing him the emptiness of my "Storage of Chaos" skill, Alayna's father had finally given up everything to survive. What could be more frightening than death and torture if not the prospect of living a life of loneliness, emptiness...for eternity ?

[What did he see that made him give up instantly like that, onee-san ?]

While Theophylactus was at my feet with his mind completely brainwashed to my delight, Kira's voice echoed in my head. Her curiosity was obviously more than understanding and I knew that almost everyone was asking the exact same question. Tugging on the ice chain attached to the neck of my new human toy, I sat quietly in my seat and answered as simply as possible.

*A future of wandering and darkness*

Crossing my legs, I could see the former King forcing himself to move as quickly as possible to come and sit down cross-legged next to my seat. His behavior really reminded me of a dog and I had to do my best not to burst out laughing in front of everyone. What a divine sight. Seeing him at my feet and chained up gave me even more sadistic feelings that made me shiver with pleasure and excitement.

*What if I experimented on him ? Mmmmh...I could try to cross him, I think Humans love that. Or I could modify him and make him even more powerful once I find a way to prevent any rebellion fufu~"

"Ahem. Honey ? Didn't you want to demonstrate your power by bringing back who you know ?"

While I was totally lost in my thoughts, my wife's soft whispering voice reached my ears snapping me out of my fantasies. Without realizing it, my small cold laugh had paralyzed everyone pushing Gaya to remind me the rest of the evening. Shaking my head before thanking her with my eyes, I couldn't help but smile at the idea of what would happen next.

Everything was going as I had planned: the information about the Church, Myles' submission, my sister's and my wife's demonstration of power. Now it was my turn to show my warriors and my special prisoner what I was capable of and for that I was going to bring two dead people back to life. Well, of course these two people were not really dead but in a way they were going to be reborn, here and now.

"It's time..."

After the war we had just won despite the many battle deaths, I wanted to lift the spirits of the remaining soldiers as well. They were all present, the arena was surrounded by these faithful warriors making the pride of our whole Empire, all without exception deserved more. So now it was time for me to open up a bit more and let them know with honesty that I was not just Freya.

I had not hidden my powers as Lucifer during the last confrontation with Zal's army, but I had never explained it to my soldiers. After what we had all been through together, I felt they had a right to know, or at least a right to understand. I also wanted the two remaining humans and the mysterious vampire to witness what was about to happen, so I stood up with a smile.

"You stay put."

Letting go of the chain and telling my new toy not to follow me, I walked with a confident step towards the center of the arena in complete silence. Myles was being held by Kira next to Gaya and Jade was being held by Ralph next to the other nine Commanders. I had made sure that no one was spying on us and I couldn't feel Titania's presence either, so it was time to free those who had been sleeping for far too long.

[ Do you want to proceed with the extraction of Envious Snake and Prideful Griffin ? ]

[ YES/NO ]

*Yes*

As I stopped in the middle of Leto's dust-filled blood that was still very much present, I scanned the crowd for a few seconds. Then, without further ado, I raised both arms activating "Storage of Chaos" once again but this time to pull out two huge bodies. Although wounded, they were still warm, filled with blood as if they had been killed less than an hour ago, very well preserved.

"This is..."

"...the Demons..."

"...that we faced in the crypt !"

Before everyone's eyes, a huge snake a little over four meters tall with dark green scales and spikes covering its entire body appeared. Like Kira, it had the same horn in the middle of its forehead and was a member of the demon race despite its reptilian appearance. Next to it, the second body was not covered with scales but with black feathers on more than half of its surface.

It was a four-meter long griffin, with bird wings, an eagle's head and a feline body ending in a big tail with feathers at the end. Once again, the same horn was in the middle of its forehead, a sign that it belonged to the Sins who were once all under my command. In front of me there was finally the Envious Snake and the Prideful Griffin that I was finally going to get back after so many years thanks to June and May.

The process was going to be faster than with my little sister since I didn't have to separate the soul of the sisters from mine since I already had them. However, this was going to be the first time that I was going to give a new body to people who did not share my blood. The master-subordinate relationship that Kira could sometimes feel was going to be much more powerful without a doubt and I was curious to find out how much.

*Well...I have to concentrate. The process is faster but this time I have to release two souls and not just one, thanks to the 600 attribute points, it should be fine*

It had been forever that 600 points were sleeping in my system, kept very carefully for this very moment or in case of emergency. Allocating these points always made me revert to my beastly form of more than four meters, which was not always practical. However, this time, if ever a greater weakness than expected was felt, I knew how to quickly regain the strength to continue.

[ The two souls you possess are being extracted with your level 3 skill: Master of Souls ]

[ Congratulations ! The operation has been successful, the two souls can now be manipulated and placed back into your storage space or into a body.]

[ Countdown begins: 04 min 57 sec ]

As I concentrated, I felt the palms of my hands become warm and I could see them turn a golden color. I had May's and June's souls in my hands and only 5 minutes to find a place for them before they died. So, in a big silent arena, I went towards the two huge bodies in front of me to touch their foreheads one after the other.

[ MP: 73 000 / 85 000 ]

I had to be careful not to let the mana of the two beasts still perfectly preserved, absorb the two lights too quickly. For that, I used my own mana which made my MPs decrease little by little faster and faster as I had imagined. My little demonstration at the Empire's funeral had tired me out and this new experience was not helping and was tiring me out greatly in a few seconds.

[ MP: 61,278 / 85,000 ]

*Still a little...*

[ MP: 54 927 / 85 000 ]

After a few very long minutes, I could finally feel the two souls separating from my system to merge perfectly into the bodies' mana. My gesture had not been impressive, but a wave of immense power had invaded the entire coliseum in a few moments. Despite my concentration, various auras had been released from my own body obscuring and cooling the atmosphere drastically.

[ The two souls were indeed implanted in the bodies of the demon Prideful Griffin and the demon Envious Snake. ]

[ Congratulations Lucifer ! June and May have been added to your system as the second and third Demon Sins, and you now have access to their status in your Empire menu. Their awakening is imminent ! ]

[ The Freya system has recognized June and May as subordinates of the host - June: Envious Snake (5th Sin) / May: Prideful Griffin (4th Sin) ]

I hadn't chosen who would become what, so I was finding out along with all these notifications, the race of each of the two sisters. For the moment nothing was happening but as I was about to turn around to face my wife, something strange was happening. The operation was over, we just had to wait but MPs continued to decrease without understanding why followed by a new notification.

- PING -

[ Alert ! According to the calculations of your new system, due to your great mental and physical fatigue your MPs will drop to 0. Please use your attribute points urgently before stopping the process. ]

Without even thinking, as I could see the two beasts' bodies light up like Kira's in the crypt, I used my 600 skill points. 100 points everywhere as I used to do and so the next second I felt that sensation again going through my body. White, black and red lights were coming out of my chest while the powerful light was going through all my limbs which were already changing.

Luckily, this time I wasn't hurt so I didn't feel any pain but a desire to walk across an entire Kingdom, alone. My black fur reappeared, my muscles became stronger, my body harder, my size bigger and my power more incredible. As I took my beastly form, head under the moon, the ground almost seemed to crack under my weight.

Shivers ran down my spine, I licked my fangs and an urge that could not be suppressed took me wildly. Raising my head to the moon, I screamed as loud as I could, making the whole Empire tremble in my turn, as Gaya and Kira had done just before me. This time, just like my wife, I felt my voice had changed, instead of sounding like one, it sounded like several were overlapping.

*I feel...so good in this form...*

- POV General -

In front of two shining bodies, once again, the Wolf Empress had appeared in her original form in front of her most loyal warriors. They had all seen her in this form before, but this time it was different, the more she changed the more unapproachable she seemed even to the Commanders. It was impossible to describe the many feelings Freya brought to those who saw her more and more as the Goddess she had been.

A Goddess as terrifying and mesmerizing as she was beautiful and ruthless, one day Empress, the next day ruler of the world, and the day after that undisputed Goddess. Even for Kira and Gaya who knew her better than anyone else, she remained a true mystery to whom logic could not apply. The Crimson Queen and the Silver Princess were speechless as the one who deserved the world for them finally turned around.

Her black hair rustled in the night wind chilled by the mere presence of this legendary and unique beast. Freya raised her head slowly, looking down at everyone with only a slight growl as her two large violet eyes made everyone look away. Suddenly, the two bodies behind her stopped glowing and almost instantly, movement was felt from both.

Unlike Kira who had awakened in her humanoid form, June and May were awakening in their demon form, not sharing the blood of the Nightshades. June in her snake form had very light blue eyes while May in her griffin form had completely white eyes. They both had blank stares as they dominated the crowd with their size, finally laying eyes on the black wolf.

At that moment, even if the twins were not wide awake, as Freya had thought, their instincts were acting for them. Without question, the two huge beasts, who were fully recovered, bent their heads as low as they could while shaking. In the Elysium Empire, a huge snake and griffin could be seen bowing to an even bigger, majestic and terrifying she-wolf.

The Empress had not yet unlocked her own form of 7th Sin but the aura she gave off did not fool the two demons who had a body memory. Lucifer stood well in front of them and even though June and May were lost, guided by this instinct, they were smart enough to understand that at this moment, their loyalty to this wolf they had recognized...was unwavering and would last as long as possible.
