The Legend of the ruthless Empress Freya
Chapter 27 Bloody Auction (Part II)-- POV Freya --
The layout of the mansion was quite simple, two staircases on each side of a floor were connected to the next floor. All I had to do was go up to the last one, where Shiro was. The area was big but with my speed and intelligence, I didn't have much difficulty to move quickly without running into all the walls of the house.
*It's strange that no one is there.*
I couldn't see any human, no one seemed to be inside the house. The stairs leading to the upper floors were destroyed after my passage, the steps were cracked and the walls were ready to collapse. I couldn't control my strength because I was too busy trying to find Shiro in this huge empty house, which worried me.
[Onee-san be careful, you might end up collapsing the building before you find Little Shiro].
*Tsk*
I had arrived at the third floor anyway, which contained only one door. A large door with the words "entertainment room" throned in capital letters that gave me the creeps and made me uncomfortable. I didn't want to know what kind of entertainment was going on inside but I had to get in. Kicking violently, the huge door opened with a bang and flew into the room. I still couldn't see what was there but my anger was growing for some unknown reason.
As I entered the room, I saw many different beds, there were used torture devices and traces of blood. In the corner of the room, the corpses of half-humans were strewn on the floor with all kinds of wounds. I clenched my fists and looked around.
*So the guards are all here...*
There was a battalion of 50 soldiers forming a wall in front of Lord Harker.
You could tell he wasn't a handsome man, he was fat, hairy and dripping with sweat. As his lecherous eyes looked me up and down with a disgusting smile, two half-human women were at his feet passed out with what appeared to be broken ribs for one and an arm for the other. Harker had placed both feet on the heads of each of them and was enjoying keeping his dirty feet on their faces.
"These half-humans are better a little broken hahaha ~"
The blood was rising more and more in my head as I watched this scene unfold.
*What if he had touched Shiro? What if she was already...*
The wrath I had been holding back from the beginning suddenly released as everything near me began to freeze.
[ONEE-SAN !!!]
I could hear Kira screaming but I didn't want to listen to her as a feeling of power came over me. My night-black hair turned ice-white as I couldn't control the rage that naturally came out of my body. Two sharp, pointed fangs appeared in my mouth, as sharp as the sharpest sword. Everything froze in a 200 meter space, even all the blood I had on my clothes and in my hair was gone. The air was cold and could burn the lungs of those who breathed, and an icy wind came out of nowhere making my hair flutter as white as Shiro's.
As I walked towards the lord, each step I took left the ground broken under my strength and frozen under the power of my icy aura. I walked slowly towards the soldiers keeping my hateful gaze on the lord, nothing existed around me but him. The human soldiers tried to stop me but in a flash, without even looking at them, ice spikes shot up from the ground and pierced them all over before they could reach me. In an instant, the room was stained red and all 50 soldiers were dead.
-- PING --
[ You have earned 25,000 EXP for killing 50 humans ]
[ Condition met to advance to next level (32) ]
[ You now have +100 attribute points ]
[You have learned the Ice Empress Domain skill "Frozen Wrath" (lvl 1) - (under condition) ]
The notifications were ringing, but at this point I clearly didn't give a shit. The lord was alone and shaking as his smug, lecherous smile disappeared.
[Onee-saaan...Onee-san calm down ! You don't control this skill yet !]
I could hear Kira's voice coming closer in my mind as I came to my senses. My hair turned black again and the ice that had frozen the room disappeared as quickly as it had appeared.
*I...sorry...*
Becoming aware of the notifications, I could only postpone looking at all those messages.
*I don't have time to check all this. Later.*
Walking towards the human in charge of the city, I picked up the two women and dropped them further into the room...away from that pig. At this point, I was annoyed that I didn't have at least one healing skill.
Turning my gaze back to the human, I could see that he had pulled out a katana and was pointing it at me while shaking. He didn't even seem to know how to use a weapon.
*Kira displays his status.*

In front of such pathetic statistics I almost felt like laughing. He allowed himself to kill, to torture half-humans who were undoubtedly more admirable than him. He gave himself the luxury to decide life and death while being so weak? I didn't know if I should laugh at this injustice or be angry.
In an instant I was in front of him and I took his weapon, not without breaking his arm in the process. As I took his katana and he screamed, I could see that he had a key around his huge, slimy neck. I didn't need it and there was no way I was going to touch him.
"Where are the slaves you were saving for the auction ?"
He pointed his shaky pudgy finger at a second equally huge armored door behind a bed. I clearly didn't need the key so I made four walls of ice to keep him out while I went to free the slaves. I wasn't going to kill him because I had a much more interesting idea.
In my mind I didn't care if Shiro could see me like this, it was my nature and I wasn't going to hide it from her. I don't want her to be abused but I don't want her to be ignorant of this world and its cruelty so I won't hide who I really am.

-- POV Shiro --
I had been locked in this room with all the other people for a while now. Earlier I was on the street while mom was scaring Jay and a human picked me up and brought me here. There were lots of people who were different like me. They weren't human and had pointy ears, animal heads, ears or tails. They talked about being sold as slaves, I didn't really know what that meant but mom told me it was something bad. Even the kids from my old house were there.
Everyone seemed to be afraid of what was going to happen so I started to be afraid too. Was I going to be here all my life?
*No, I'm sure Mom will come and get me. She said I should stay strong and listen to my feelings !*
As the children cried, grown-ups tried to comfort them. A tall man with a horned animal head seemed to be arguing with others. I wanted to try to help them or make them smile, there was no need to worry.
"We really can't do anything? Look at all the people there are, there are nearly 100 of us and we will all end up with a human nobleman. Families will be separated, orphans killed and women raped."
"I know! But what can we do? The gate is armored and there are hundreds of guards waiting for us behind it. Not to mention being able to leave the city unnoticed."
pαпdα Йᴏνê1,сòМ They said they had a house in the forest but leaving the city would be difficult. I wanted to help them and now I could talk. I had to be strong like my mom and tell them something important.
I approached the big man with the animal head and tugged on his sleeve to tell him I was there. The adults who were talking looked at me as if I shouldn't be there until the man spoke to me.
"What's the matter kid ? You know this isn't really the time."
*You can do it, mommy said you can talk and you're strong !*
"Uh..sir...my mommy is coming."
"Your mommy?"
The man didn't really seem to understand, but he didn't have to worry because I knew she would come for me.
"Listen little one, I can see that you love your mommy but outside there are evil humans who want to hurt us. Your mom unfortunately won't be able to beat them on her own okay?"
Although he may have been right, I had already seen my mom scare the lady in the store and Jay. My mom..she was scared of nothing.
"No no, I'm sure she'll come because she's super strong! She's a little scary but she's really nice. You just have to wait."
Yes she was going to come because the day she gave me my name I knew I would never be alone again.

-- POV Yorr --
This tiny little half-human girl clung to me assuring me that her mother would come with hopeful eyes. I didn't know what to say to her even though I knew we couldn't be saved.
"I.."
The words didn't come to me as her violet eyes stared at me and a smile broke out on her innocent face. How could a child like her survive in a world like ours? She was far too pure and needed to be protected at all costs. But by whom? And we were all stuck here with no hope of getting out free.
The little girl stood there and stared at the door, whispering to herself about her mother. I didn't know who she was but she was probably dead or worse. A half human in this town was bound to be a slave of the lord, we were all there and her mother was not.
For us minotaurs family is very important and I would have given my life for my family, but who was there for her now?
As I was lamenting the fate that awaited the little girl, the door suddenly opened and went off its hinges. This door that no one could open without the key, armored with several kilos impossible to break down even by dozens of beast men. This same door had been opened by what seemed to me to be a kick from the person standing in the light. We couldn't see her well because the sudden influx of light had dazzled us all. As I rubbed my eyes, I could hear the little girl screaming as she threw herself at the figure.
"MOMMY !!!"
*Mommy? ....This little one was telling the truth ?*
The mother of this little half-human was standing in the doorway and had just freed us with a single kick. As she crouched down to hug her daughter I could see that she was not just anyone. The natural aura of power that emanated from her was not something to be taken lightly, her presence made me feel like I was standing in front of a great Empress and her beauty was...stunning. I also understood why the girl had said that her mother was a little bit scary...she wasn't a little bit scary, but FUCKING scary. There was something about her eyes, as purple as her daughter's, something scary and gripping that I couldn't describe.
I didn't know what to think as she stood up and walked towards us with the little girl in her arms. At that moment one question was on everyone's lips.
Who could she be?
