Chapter 143 The New System [Interlude III]



-- POV Freya --

My mind was still fuzzy and as I kept my eyes closed I concentrated on calming my body and heart. I felt good, complete and even though I felt no change I was definitely different. I was lying on the ground and unlike when I had lost control, now everything seemed clearer in my mind. I still didn\'t understand what the memory from the red globe was, but it had motivated me for some unknown reason.

I breathed softly and felt the blood circulate throughout my body, I heard my heartbeat and an impressive influx of mana. It was no longer light and flowing like a quiet river, for this time my mana was dense, fast and almost unstoppable. I didn\'t know why but even my blood felt different, I couldn\'t explain it because it was a feeling but I was sure of it.

I was so quiet that I couldn\'t hear anything around me as if I had closed my ears to all outside noises. I was in my own world thinking about all the things that had happened but I had to reassure those who were worried first. I breathed in and out before finally answering my little sister who had been screaming in my ears non-stop since earlier.

[Freya !! Freya can you hear me ?!]

*Hai hai~ I\'m here all right ?*

[What the fuck happened ? You started losing control of your emotions and then nothing !]

Kira\'s voice was more angry than worried, and as I kept my eyes closed, I gradually began to feel what was around me again. The singular sound and smell of acid washed over me, the stillness of the cave we had arrived in and multiple quiet, sleepy breaths. As I stood still, before I answered my little sister, one question was important.

*Kira, how long have I been asleep this time ?*

[It\'s been a month !]

*What ?*

[I\'m just kidding, you deserve it ! It\'s only been a few hours, based on what Gaya said, it should be daylight in two or three hours. Now Freya, tell me what happened.]

I had been surprised by Kira\'s statement, but strangely enough not more so, because unlike usual I was much calmer. I felt as if nothing could shake me like earlier and a higher self-confidence was running through my mind. As I explained to my little sister what had happened, she remained silent and didn\'t dare say anything. Kira listened attentively to every sentence and once she was sure I had finished, she always answered me with her serious voice, not without difficulty.

[I-I...I\'m confused right now, you\'re going through so much that it\'s hard to keep up. At first...I...I thought you were going to lose control and destroy everything with your ice domain but...]

*That didn\'t happen*

[Yes, it even seemed like the best way to...unlock what was buried inside you but...that weird memory. I wonder who the young woman was...if only you could have had a name or even a face]

*Don\'t worry, I\'m sure this isn\'t the last time and I\'ll have other opportunities to discover this identity. For now I have to focus on my new changes even though...I don\'t know exactly what happened*

I didn\'t know what had really changed in me but I had clearly undergone some changes. As I slowly got to my feet and opened my eyes, I could see that I was still on my island while my soldiers were sleeping on the other platform. Ralph and Nina the dryad were watching over them and seemed so caught up in their conversations that they didn\'t notice I was awake.

*Perfect I should be safe before I have to answer their questions*

Before checking one by one the things we were already aware of, still sitting, I stretched my neck from left to right to make it crack. I felt partially numb but nothing abnormal after sitting like a statue on the stone floor. As I moved my arms in turn, each movement I made seemed to make my mana and blood flow much faster.

*Kira, this time you found yourself in a different space too ? Did you feel anything special ?*

I needed to know if my little sister had been left alone again like the last time in a dark space. Even if it was only a few hours, I couldn\'t help but imagine how she would have felt if that event had happened again. However, as Kira answered me, I always remained calm and unperturbed.

[Well, now that you mention it, unlike the last time and for some unknown reason, I was not in that same place. I was simply in a part of my soul, the same part I return to when I want to rest or leave you alone in your private moments]

*Mmmh it\'s better this way, if you could rest in a familiar place that\'s all that matters. Now, what could explain this different phenomenon is probably the fact that something happened during my changes and my journey in my memories*

[When you woke up, I seemed to have seen some odd notifications indeed, however I didn\'t pay attention to them too busy trying to bring you back to life !]

As I smiled imperceptibly, I opened my notification history to look at it now that I had time. The Commanders and Lieutenants were sleeping peacefully, far too tired from everything that had happened and as Kira had said it would still be dark outside so I didn\'t have to contact Shiro just yet.

-- PING --

[ Congratulations! The host killed a LV40 Nightmare Demon ! ]

[ You earn 160,400 EXP ]

[ Condition met to advance to next level (37) ]

[ Condition met to advance to next level (38) ]

[ Condition met to advance to next level (39) ]

[ Condition met to advance to next level (40) ]

[ Your HP and MP have increased ]

[ You have won the title: Empress of the three colors ]

[ You now have +300 attribute points ]

Up to here were the notifications I had received since my fight with the level 40 Demon. Everything was normal with the reward still being attribute points, my HP and MP increasing, and the EXP gain. However, the title I had received had activated, causing the whole series of events that had led me to this very moment.

*I guess I\'ll have to take care of it...*

[Wait onee-san ! When you woke up, I saw several notifications about a system error. It might be a good idea to check that out before you go through your usual process of distributing points and discovering new changes]

I hadn\'t forgotten those messages, which at the time of my awakening weren\'t the most important, but it must have been something special. Mentally scrolling through all my notifications, I finally came across the last ones that were displayed in front of me.

[ SYSTEM ERROR ]

[ System rebooting in progress...30%...60%...80%...99% ]

[ System rebooting is 100% successful ]

[ The Empress system has become Freya\'s system. From now on, no third party will be allowed to interact without the host\'s consent anymore ]

There had been a glitch in the system at the time I had experienced this strange phenomenon and as I read the messages in front of me, one word in particular seemed more important than the others.

*Anymore ?*

That word meant everything and obviously the first person that came to mind was Titania. Of course I had no real proof that she was the one interacting with my system and then she was the one who gave it to me so it might seem normal but not to me. I continued to have doubts about this Goddess and her real intentions but now I was thinking more clearly.

[I know what you\'re thinking, but...as I said earlier, let\'s focus on the present and what\'s ahead of us in this place...]

*Yeah, don\'t worry, I\'m not gonna repeat what happened*

For the moment, unlike earlier, I didn\'t feel like responding with violence, let alone the fact that it was all uncertain. I didn\'t know either when I would be facing Titania again and for some unknown reason now I wanted to play. I wanted to use all this information, my intelligence, my strength and my unique race to take her at her own game if it turned out that I was indeed her pawn.

*I\'ll think about this later, right now I need to figure out what happened to the system*

[I\'ll do my best to help you onee-san !]

*Thanks, little sister*

I had not yet opened the system itself as I was only in the history and as I tried to open my status, messages I had never seen before were displayed.

[ Welcome to the Freya System ! ]

[ Many changes have been made, the host is now in full control of her system ]

[ This new system is now based on the deep nature (soul) of the host and can evolve with her throughout her quest for power ]

These notifications confirmed 100% the theory of a third party being able to interact with my old system, but that was no longer the case. What interested me for the moment were these famous modifications that seemed to have been made to my program. Now I had confirmation from the name and the messages that the system was now mine, but to be honest I didn\'t really know what that meant.

[Onee-san ! Look at this !]

While I was thinking, Kira opened my status page, obviously still able to help me and interact with it to my great relief. My little sister was not to be counted as a third party as her soul was trapped in mine, in the eyes of the system we were one. As I read my page, I could see that indeed, many things had changed.

*My titles "Empress of the three colors" and "Blessed by Titania, Goddess of Endless Chaos and Eternal Frozen Hell" are crossed out. Which confirms at least one thing, the title given by Titania was probably used to manage a part of the system from a distance...*

[I agree but Freya, that\'s not all ! Look at your name and the new line that\'s been added above your titles !]

I was doing as Kira had indicated and to my surprise, it didn\'t just say my name but the letter L followed by question marks similar to Shiro\'s. Further down, I could also read that I now had a unique title but that it was also locked, controlled by a percentage gauge. These were the only two visible changes at the moment, but already very important.

*If the system is based on my nature and soul it is not surprising to see this, however it also means that I carry something important inside me. I knew it !*

[For the system to add new things by just analyzing your entire being and what it represents, it does indeed mean that you may be more than you thought...no actually, YOU ARE more than you thought !]

Everything Kira had said was true, and the thought had been on my mind since my second encounter with Titania. The day I had that strange dream, I had asked the Goddess who I was and why I was sent back in time but I never got an answer. Deep down after all that had happened I was sure that there were many secrets surrounding my existence as well.

The rest of my status was the same, proving that I had not evolved but simply expanded my potential. Which one ? I didn\'t know yet, but I had clearly felt some changes. Not to mention the strange feeling my mana and blood gave me, these changes were more mental than physical. To find out what else the new system could do for me would take practice.

Unlike a few hours ago, I felt much more patient and less directly affected like before. I didn\'t really know what had changed in me but I liked the new me. As I finished looking at my status, I put a hand under my chin before addressing Kira.

*Kira ? During my fight with the Demon, did you also feel all those sensations that went through me? His aura that thrilled me and that unknown strength that came over me in that moment ? I\'m pretty sure I unlocked something*

[Yes, I felt all that. Obviously not as intensely as you did, but yes, and I can tell you with certainty that your Demon side has awakened and what happened to you has probably pushed the system to change. However, I never thought it was possible]

Of course my little sister didn\'t have all the answers, but in the last few days the system had completely exceeded her expectations and what she knew of it. Now it had my name on it and all of this represented my new path, my destiny that I wanted to control and my soul now in tune with itself.

[What could have triggered all this ? How could a title disassociate you from the Goddess if it comes from her powers in the first place ? Everything happened since you fought that Demon but... why now ?]

*That\'s because the real trigger wasn\'t my fight but my red memory*

That memory was the key and had made me grow mentally as now so much seemed to surpass my first impression of this world. Armed with my new Freya System, I was more than determined to get out quickly of this place and find the answers to all my questions while I waited to face Titania once more.

I still didn\'t know who I really was, why this was happening, but it was time to turn the whole game board upside down and let it be known that no one could ever control me.
