The Legend of the ruthless Empress Freya

-- POV Freya --

"Freya ? Just now, wh-who was that ?"

"Huh ?"

[Wh...]

I couldn't believe what I had just heard. The tent had become silent like the three of us. A lot of questions were running through my head as I restarted the conversation to confirm what had just happened.

"Gaya, can you hear Kira ?"

"Kira ? You mean I heard the little sister you told me about ?"

"It would seem so...Kira, I believe you are able to speak to others via the telepathy of the Kingdom menu."

She seemed to be the most shocked of the three of us. It was understandable, since what could be called her birth, she had only been able to converse with one person, me. We were very close and shared almost everything, but the prospect of being able to talk to other people must have been wonderful news for her. I could hear her little voice echoing in my mind again.

[I...]

"It's okay Kira, take your time."

My little sister had become oddly shy as she spoke to another person for the first time in her life. She wasn't an introvert, but it would take some time to get used to it and I knew she was a little scared.

[Nice to meet you Gaya, my name is Kira].

Gaya didn't understand everything that was going on either but was extremely polite.

"Nice to meet you Kira ! You can be on first-name terms with me, we've spoken a few times with Freya as our messenger, but I'm happy to be able to talk to you directly. I...thank you for always helping her and being by her side."

[It..it's nothing, thank...you for bringing her what I can't.]

It was strange to hear two people in my mind without interfering and especially when those two people were talking about me as if I wasn't there. Despite the strangeness of the situation, I couldn't help but be happy for Kira. Hearing my little sister speak with my wife for the first time, almost made me emotional as a warm smile that I didn't show to anyone else, appeared on my face.

"Little sister, this is great ! That's a pretty exceptional revelation. I can't believe we made such a discovery."

I felt like my head was heating up, so much information, so many possibilities could exist through the system. Even Kira didn't know its flaws and its real capabilities. My mind was teeming with unanswered questions, theories, ideas and excitement.

We had calmed down and we had taken advantage of this moment to explain to Gaya what the system really was, so that she could understand the conversation. The dragoness had been attentive the whole time and despite the subject being unknown to her, she had managed to understand everything perfectly.

Shiro was sleeping and we had been talking for ten minutes now.

[I don't understand how this is possible. I can't use your telepathy skill though...it's incomprehensible.]

"Freya ? Why can't she use the telepathy skill you got at level 15 ? She's right, based on what you told me, it doesn't really make sense, does it ?"

For my part, I thought I had found something. It was just a theory but I was almost 100% sure she was the answer. As I straightened my head, I breathed in to explain to them what I thought was an interesting lead.

"Listen. When I connected my mind to yours, Gaya, I saw two threads connect to each other very vaguely before they went away. I think they were each of our mana links, yours Kira, yours Gaya and mine. The reason you, Kira, can't use my telepathy skill that I acquired at level 15 is because it is an automatic skill. This skill is from this world and therefore you cannot interact with it, but when I contacted Gaya I used another form of this same skill. The difference is that this time it is the system that supports it via the Kingdom menu. The two threads I saw, must have been my mana link and Kira's."

[Which would mean that as a recognized and individual entity, my soul is automatically taken care of by the system ?]

"Exactly !"

[...]

That was a lot of information, but I knew that it could not be anything else. Everything seemed logical to me and above all I had come to the conclusion that the Empress system left nothing to chance, it was perfect. Gaya, who until then had remained silent, spoke up after thinking for a long time.

"Which means, for the moment, she can only talk to members who have their names listed in your Kingdom menu."

"For the moment yes, but I think that's already really good ! So..."

This discovery had also made me realize another really important thing. If Kira and Gaya could talk to each other through me as well, then that meant that there could be more than one of us conversing at a distance.

"I'd like to try something ! Gaya, give me a moment I'll get back to you shortly."

"No worries Freya, on my side we stopped so contact me as soon as everything is ready"

With these words, I ended the conversation because I had a very specific idea in mind. Kira didn't know what I wanted to do and was panicking a little bit because she knew that it was going to concern her.

[Something ? Onee-san wait !]

I didn't listen to Kira at all as I walked over to Shiro who hadn't eaten yet so she woke up with a hungry stomach. She was rubbing her eyes softly as she looked disoriented.

"Mommy ? Is it morning already ?"

"Haha~ no sweetie, it's still evening and you fell asleep. Stay here and I'll go get you some food and I'd like you to help me with something too."

My little moon looked up as she smiled, happy to be able to eat and help me. I was getting up to leave the tent when I noticed two soldiers standing in front of it, on either side of the entrance.

*Why are they here ?*

As I walked out, I took the opportunity to question them.

"You two, didn't I give the order to rest ? What are you doing standing like that in front of my tent ?"

pαпᵈα-noνɐ1·сoМ The two soldiers were actually women, one half-bear and one half-cat, holding two large spears in their hands. As my voice reached their ears, I could see them stiffen before turning to greet me. The cat-eared woman on the right still had her head down as she replied.

"Your Highness, we are here at the request of Commander Emilia and Commander Ralph. Our role is to help you if there is anything you need or simply to pass on any messages that arrive outside or inside your tent. Do you want us to leave ?"

[That's new]

*Indeed*

I was still thinking as I stared at them. It was a good move because it allowed me to not be disturbed but to be aware of what was going on outside the tent at all times. What I didn't like was that I wasn't told about it. I knew that as the kingdom grew, I wouldn't be able to know everything right away, but that's why there were management positions. They were just to keep me informed of any decisions.

"Sigh, no, it's okay, you can stay. But make sure you take turns so you're not the only two who don't get any rest. Have one of you two bring two meals back to the tent, thank you."

"Hai !"

I returned again to my quarters while thinking about the decision that Emilia and Ralph had taken.

*It will be necessary in the future that they come to speak to me about this kind of things. I know that they want to avoid disturbing me as much as possible but I remain the Empress. It's my job to know every little thing that happens among my subordinates and the smallest orders given.*

[It's nothing, you'll just have to be stricter on that point].

*Mmh*

While I was still in my thoughts, the bear woman and the cat woman returned bringing two good meals that Irrena and her team had prepared.

"Thank you, go eat if you haven't already"

"Thank you your highness, we are going right now, others will come to replace us."

I was now sitting and leaning back in my chair while Shiro ate happily sitting on my lap. Her legs were swaying to the rhythm of her tail and I could even hear her humming slightly. I had already wolfed down my meal in just a few minutes and my daughter was almost finished with her meal so I decided to test my theory.

"Sweetie, how would you like to talk to Gaya ? She's not with us but I can use magic to get you to talk to her."

Her mouth was still full as she responded excitedly.

"Yesh I want tcho !"

I also wanted her to talk to Kira for the first time to see if it was possible to all connect and have our first real family meeting. Shiro still didn't know about Kira and I was afraid she wouldn't really understand so I tried to explain it as simply as possible.

"Shiro my dear, there is something else I would like to tell you. You know that I have a little sister that you have never met. She is also part of our family but she can't physically be with us because she is in my mind."

My little girl tilted her head to the side to show that she was trying to understand. After frowning for a few seconds, she seemed very interested.

"Is she stuck in your head ? How can you talk to her ? What's her name ?"

This may have been sudden, but surprisingly her questions vibrated with intense excitement as I answered her.please visit pαпᵈα-:)ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.co)m

"Her name is Kira. Do you want to talk to her too ? You can only talk to her in your own head if you concentrate well. Don't be afraid, you will hear my voice, Gaya's voice and my little sister Kira's voice."

Shiro nodded with a serious look on her face as she had left her plate for a long time, far too absorbed in the idea of talking to Gaya from afar and meeting the sister I had in my head.

-- PING --

[ Contact Gaya and Shiro by telepathy ? ]

[ YES/NO ]

*I knew it ! You can select multiple people !*

While I was delighted with this discovery, the same feeling was felt in my mind. I could see the same two threads connecting before they left and split back into two. One part was going away and the other was connected to Shiro who was on my lap waiting.

"Mom Gaya ?"

Her little voice was now in my mind and I could see her focus as she closed her eyes.

"Shiro is that you ?"

It was the dragoness' turn to have her voice echo in my head as Shiro suddenly opened her eyes shocked by what she had just heard.

"Oh ! Mom can you hear me ? I can hear you magically ! This is really magical hehe~!"

Gaya also seemed very happy as she answered Shiro and chatted with her a bit. Kira and I had remained silent so as not to disturb them during their discussions, but after a few minutes, my little moon addressed Kira.

"Ki..kira ? Uh...I don't know if you can hear me but mommy said she has a little sister. I hope you're doing well even though you're locked up and I'm very happy to have a new person in the family. T..thank you for taking me in. Oh and I forgot...my name is Shiro !"

The next thing we all heard at that moment was Kira's laughter that hid a deep emotion. She had been seeing Shiro through me all this time and had grown enormously attached to her. It must have made her feel much better to finally be able to talk to my daughter than to my wife, after all Kira had also fallen for her little angelic face. I couldn't help but smile, even though I knew my little sister would have cried if she had a body. Her voice was joyful, warm and soft as she softly answered this little girl on my lap.

[Hello little Shiro. Thank you for being so kind to me, I'm so happy to meet you and to finally be able to talk to you. You can call me aunty Kira or just Kira, it's up to you. I would hug you but it's impossible, so I hope you'll agree to come and talk to me whenever you feel like it okay].

"Of course, aunty Kira ! Besides you look as kind as mommy hihi~"

This time it was Gaya and I who didn't talk while Shiro got to know Kira.

We spent a very long time after that talking and laughing all four of us for the first time. I was happy, my heart was overflowing with love and joy. This feeling was inexplicable but I accepted it with great pleasure. We could finally talk together as a real family and this discovery had left me even more determined than ever.

*I would find a way for Kira to stand by our side with a body, no matter what*
