The Legend of the ruthless Empress Freya-Chapter 3 I’m A Demon Wolf With A System !

-- POV Freya --

*Mmmf*

Still half asleep, I knew I could finally hear, see, breathe and feel my body move.

*Aaaah I can finally move! But it's not like usual, so what's going on? I suddenly feel very....different*.

As I slowly came out of my sleepy state, I could feel the smells tickling the tip of my nose again, or should I say...snout? Memories of my past life and my encounter with Titania were slowly coming back to me as I realized where I was. I was standing in a small clearing surrounded by a huge forest that stretched as far as the eye could see. Green, lush and very dense. In this small place blessed by the sun, a small river was flowing beside me to disappear among the trees.

*So it's true isn't it? I was really reincarnated in another world after being murdered. So if I feel strange, it's because I must have become a Demon Wolf.*

While I was thinking, I walked over to the river where I woke up to see my reflection in the water. There, in the crystal clear water a small head appeared, I could finally see what I looked like and my head was much too cute to belong to a Demon Wolf.

*Strange, I was expecting something a bit scarier. I'm actually extremely and dangerously adorable!*

My head was that of a small wolf (still bigger than those on Earth but still small from my point of view) about 50cm high and one meter long. On my forehead were two small horns, one small and one large, the latter was nestled almost between my eyes while the small one was a little above. My fur as black as night contrasted perfectly with the idyllic setting in which I woke up. As I continued to observe myself with great attention, I could notice that not all of my fur was completely black...a line of white hair extended from the tip of my tail to between my two ears.

*Not bad. I even kept those purple eyes from my past life, I think I look pretty cool despite the size. Mmmh .... So if I remember correctly I must also have a system. The problem is that I have no idea how to activate it.*

Suddenly, a soft but somewhat monotonous voice was heard directly in my head.

[Hello your Majesty, I am the Empress system in charge of guiding you and helping you

in this world]

*Eh!? The system? Wait, you can speak?*

[My thoughts are limited to you but I can understand a basic conversation and respond to it your Majesty]

*All right system, but can you stop with that name? Save it for when I'm on my throne.*

[Well then what shall I call you from now on? Your highness? Master?]

*Sigh, just Freya will do for now.*

[Hai (yes) Freya-Sama!]

That's when I asked myself how to get into this system? And especially how to understand it? Every piece of information is important so I decided to ask the main person involved.

*Uum..system ? Arg first of all I'm going to call you Kira (killer in Japanese) instead of System, it's much more classy and less embarrassing for me.*

[The System entity has been named Kira]

* Wh...*

[Freya-Sama thanks for naming me, what can Kira do for you?]

*Tell me right now how to access the system.*

Despite the reincarnation I was still direct and unkind but who cares I'm currently a fucking Demon Wolf! Why should I act more gentle than when I was human when I'm not even human anymore! But I'll still try to be nice to Kira as much as possible...after all she's going to be stuck with me and I with her...a good understanding is important.

While I was lost in my thoughts, I heard Kira's soft, monotonous voice in my head.

[To access the system by yourself, think very hard about the word STATUS]

*Pfff way too cliché...but simple and effective. STATUS !*

-- PING --

A screen opened in front of me, showing me all the information about me.

Slightly bent over and squinting my eyes, I carefully examined the screen that had suddenly materialized out of nowhere.

*Kira, explain all this to me with more details ! ....Please*

As I said this simple word, I could feel chills run down my spine. It was obviously not in my nature to ask so nicely! At that moment I hoped I would never have to do this with other people if at all possible.

[Right away! So as you can see, your status defines your current state, you can see your strength, agility, defense etc. For now everything you see can change, the level of course but also the MPs and HP. For the moment you should know your skills in more detail, I will explain the rest once you are ready].

*Mmmh* I nodded my head in agreement.

*Kira, open the skills page so I can read the details*

[Done Freya-Sama]

A new window was now open where my status was displayed a few seconds ago. This one included all my skills but unlike the previous system window, descriptions had been added.

*So let's see...first let's look at the skills I automatically acquired due to my course and race.*

[- Claws (Lvl 1) - Inflicts damage to the opponent by using the power of the paws to shred].

[- Bite (Lvl 1) - Inflicts damage to the opponent by using the power of the jaw to crush].

*Mmh, these two skills seem pretty logical and basic to me considering my current race. However it is also possible to upgrade them, I wouldn't have any trouble using them, I think...so far no disappointments. As I progress in this world, I could gain new ones and make them evolve through combat. Let's see what happens next.*

[Ice Creation (Lvl 1) - Creates ice from nothing. The host can create anything but it spends MPs, the more the skill evolves the more endless the possibilities].

*Ara ~ Ice, huh? Mmh that's pretty interesting. Kira! My MPs are 175, how much do I spend using "ice creation"? And how can I upgrade this skill?*

[You have two skills that you got directly from the Goddess Titania. Before explaining in detail, you should know that in this world each being with mana can only use one element. Mana is the energy that surrounds you, you can feel it going through your body if you concentrate enough. It allows you to use magic].

*Only one element ? But I have two...*

[This is one of the many advantages of your Freya-Sama race. How much mana you spend when using "ice creation" depends on what you create. For example, a ball of ice will spend much less mana than if you decide to create 10 balls of ice].

As I listened carefully to Kira's explanation, an excitement that I hadn't felt in a long time began to sprout in my soul. Like a child who has found a new toy, I began to ask all sorts of questions, overwhelmed for the first time by the prospect of using magic.

*Kira, would I be able to create ice meteorites or even giant spikes that would fall on the enemy? Or create an impenetrable blizzard or an ice throne!*

[Freya-Sama, you will certainly be able to create all of these, however your MP supply must increase as your skill evolves. To do so, regular use will allow you to evolve your current or future skills. So I suggest you to test each one to better familiarize yourself with your new body as well as your new skills].

*Okay, I think I understood very well, finally it's exactly like the video games in my old reality! I'll keep reading my skills, I'll call you if I need you!*

[Yes Freya-Sama]

*For now, the most important thing is to understand everything so that you don't make mistakes later on that could result in death. I was reincarnated this time, but I don't think it will happen again! My long years in the yakuza have given me a pretty good sense of adaptation, but the threat is still real. I must become stronger in order to protect myself and achieve my goals as Empress!*

Lost in my thoughts, I continued to go through the list of skills in order to familiarize myself with all the skills of my new one.

[Devouring Chaos (Lv 1) - Allows you to absorb anything without leaving any trace (body, magic etc). Can also be used by the host to harvest more EXP. Can also harvest more attribute points to allocate later (str, agi, vit etc) only from a corpse of higher level than the host].

*Ooh! So this is my skill from the chaos element! It seems to me that it is rather practical, I could recover more exp by absorbing the corpses of my victims what will allow me to have some in addition to the exp resulting from the kill. So for the moment I have an ice skill of offensive type and a chaos skill of type... support? We'll have to test all that !*

As I continued my reading, a skill caught my attention!

[Humanoid form (blocked) - host must evolve to lvl 30 (when evolving to major demon)].

I wasn't dreaming, the word "humanoid" was floating in front of my head making me want to explode with anger. Was this a skill to become human again? Or was it just to take the form of one? Feeling my animosity rising, Kira spoke up on her own for the first time since we met.

[Forgive me for interjecting, but this skill will not make you human Freya-Sama! You have already become a Wolf Demon and nothing can change that now. The humanoid form will allow you to walk on two legs and have two arms just like a human, which is slightly more convenient for you if you want to infiltrate human cities for example. However remember...you are no longer human].

Taking the time to calm down, I decided to continue to go through the rest of my skills, which this time concerned the so-called "innate" ones, i acquired during my past life on Earth. They can't evolve or change, because they are engraved in my soul and my body.

[Fighting techniques (lvl max) - fighting techniques learned during the years spent in the yakuza. (blocked please acquire humanoid skill)].

[- Katana Mastery (max lvl) - skill mastered and perfected for over 10 years. (blocked please acquire the humanoid skill)]

[- Commander (lvl max) - allows the host to use her leadership skill learned during her year as the head of a large criminal organization. Held by the soul

of a ruthless conqueror. ]

The first two were blocked due to the fact that I'm only in my original Wolf Demon form at the moment. It makes sense, no one has ever seen a Wolf wielding a katana or using kungfu. This idea made me smile slightly at the ridiculous image of a wolf with a katana standing on its two legs. The last skill was not really of any use to me at the moment, but I knew that there would be a day when I would be surrounded by my subordinates as Empress.

After thinking it over and closing my status, I began to observe my surroundings for the second time and noticed again how peaceful this place was. I decided to look around the clearing to see a little further on a cave that could later serve as my shelter! When I arrived near the cave, I felt the presence of no dangerous or potentially deadly animals for a cute wolf like me.

*Yosh! This cave will be my home from now on! And for now, it's time to test my skills !*

And so, with unwavering confidence and excitement, I headed into the forest to train and explore.

*Finally, the story of my great adventure begins!*

The Wolf Demon Freya takes her first step into the world that will one day know her as the ruthless Ice Empress Freya!
