The Legend of the ruthless Empress Freya

94 The humiliation of Sarah II [Dark Forest War II - Part X]

-- POV Sarah --

*What...*

In just a few minutes, so much information had come to my mind that was now filled with so many feelings and questions. First of all, what was Vig and this Alayna doing with these monsters ? I had seen her face for the first time and she reminded me of someone but I could not remember who. I didn't have the time nor the desire to search my memory because I was too stunned because this woman had taught me. In addition to being among them, they had exposed our plans to these dirty subraces, but for what purpose ? Were they planning to betray them afterwards to take over all these races ?

*Incomprehensible !*

I had the impression that the human race had been soiled by these two traitors and that the immaculate pages of its history were now stained. It had never occurred to me to ally myself with them, even if it was to betray them later. The very idea of talking to a subrace as equals made me want to vomit. Since we had arrived in the forest, people kept on mocking us, trampling on our values, our beliefs and humiliating us.

*They are abnormal. They must have gone mad !*

As my gaze burned at Vig and Alayna, the face of the Princess of Zal finally appeared in my mind. Could it be ? I was in a nightmare. Why would the Princess of our Kingdom be here ? I was confused, angry, and felt the urge to scream out this cluster of evil thoughts. Was I witnessing the beginning of the end of the world ? I didn't even have time to say a word when the subrace called the Empress spoke again. Her next words sent a chill through my blood as a painful truth entered my heart.

"Oh by the way ~ I'm the one who killed your little brother Kirk. I broke his will, cut off his legs, ripped out his heart and crushed his skull. He used a fire whip and thought he was all powerful but he was pretty weak and whiny in the end kufufu~ If the little brother wasn't even worth it, maybe the big sister will raise the bar, right ?"

This monster had said these words with a sadistic, amused and cruel smile. Everything she had described was running through my head as I could very easily imagine my little brother suffering horribly before he died.

"You...everything...everything is your fault !"

The murderess who had coldly murdered my little brother, stood before me and offered me a chance to avenge him. My thoughts were more vivid than ever, and being unconscious earlier, had helped me regain my wits and strength for what was to come. My thought flow was no longer focused on the many bad news but on this last one that kept spinning in my head. My hatred was growing against this monster, against these subraces and this whole forest that deserved to perish.

"That's it. That's right, take out your anger and frustrations and come fight me !"

*I...I will kill her...*

Still with her mocking and extremely calm tone, the monster woman was creating a cage of ice but none of that mattered to me. Nothing else mattered as a powerful energy flowed through my body and I picked up the black blade at my feet. I wanted to do to her exactly what she had done to Kirk and more. I didn't care if I died at the end of our fight, I wanted to avenge, to purge, to kill, to slaughter, to burn, to annihilate this scum of a woman from the face of the world.

*Your smile will disappear along with your existence !*

I was not alone, John was by my side and together we had a chance to defeat her. As we moved towards the bitch, she jumped up to transform into a beast I had never seen before.

"What..."

This subrace was indeed a creature from hell and not just any creature, a she-wolf. Her size was much larger than a normal wolf and she could almost look down on me. I didn't dare admit it to myself but this monster terrified me but not even a hundred of these demonic beasts would stop me.

*She...she is far too dangerous...we..we must kill her for the sake of humanity !*

Trembling but still determined, I hesitantly walked over to this half-human who was not one anymore, to face her. John was still standing beside me and had drawn his heavy sword and nodded at me. He looked more terrified than I did but easily understood the stakes of this fight. It was going to be the hardest of our lives, the deadliest, and on our actions depended the future of our superior race.

*The fate of our world is at stake now*

We had been chosen by the Gods to get rid of this monster that was threatening our existence. It was our destiny, our mission and our role as the chosen ones. The whole universe wanted to see me avenge my brother and become the one to free the humans.

"Come here !"

The she-wolf was impressive, but I wasn't letting myself be intimidated any more than I already was. I had to be quick and efficient even though I was convinced that my years of experience would not serve me well. She was imposing and always had a sneer on her beastly face, making her huge fangs glow in the night.

"Let's go !"

I trusted John because I knew he was someone who could be counted on, so I didn't need to talk to him. We had known each other for several years and he was even the strongest after me in our group, we were perfect to defeat her. Running in her direction, I used all my power directly to finish this fight as soon as possible.

*In a battle against non-humans and savages, you have to focus on speed because even with our level, we are far from matching the physicality of these subraces*

The she-wolf still stood still and watched us approach calmly as her fur rippled in the cool wind. With a precise movement of my arm, the blade in my hand went to her head as John moved behind her for a surprise attack. Before I could even reach her, my companion was propelled into the air with a single swipe of her tail as the beast dodged my deadly attack.

*Tsk*

John wasn't hugely injured just stunned and as he got to his feet, I approached him while keeping an eye on our enemy.

"We need to be fast and very powerful. We should strike at the same time in the same place to kill this creature from the underworld !"

With the strength of his sword and my strength, we would be well able to wound her and then wear her down and deliver the final blow. My companion nodded as he replied in a whisper so that no one could hear us.

"Leader you...can we really do this ?"

I could see he was starting to doubt but now was not the time as we had a heavy responsibility weighing on our shoulders. As I planted my emerald gaze in his, I grabbed his shoulders before speaking.

"Listen John, we are the chosen ones of this world ! If our destiny has brought us here, it is to put an end to this calamity. Never has a beast like this been seen in the world and I'm sure that if we were to die, humanity would perish !"

"...I..."

"Don't think ! Don't you want to avenge my brother and all our brothers in arms ? If we allow this creature to expand her empire, it is not only them that we condemn but our entire race !"

My eyes glowed as John nodded in response.

"Leader, throw me at her."

"Very well."

Grabbing his shoulders more firmly, I lifted my companion to throw him towards our enemy. He had his sword in front of him, pointing directly at the heart of this fake Empress bastard.

"You'll have to do more than that !"

As the beast named Freya spoke, it straightened up on two legs before sending one at John who was coming at full speed. With a thud and a pile of dust, in a split second he was on the ground. Without giving him a chance to get up, the she-wolf would sink her dagger-like fangs into one of his legs.

"Aaaarg !"

Blood spurted out and stained its long teeth a scarlet red as my friend howled in pain. Without further ado, I threw myself at her in turn, avoiding the pawing blow that was intended for me. This horror was certainly bigger but that left me a chance to touch her at a strategic place.

*Now !*

After dodging her blow, I slid on the ground to get under her belly, taking care to raise my arms to tear a maximum of flesh. The blade she had given me at the beginning was effective and plunged into the fur before cutting her belly.

*Oh yes...*

It was my turn to be splashed with her blood as she jumped again to land further away from me. The young woman who was not, unfortunately had not screamed but blood was flowing from her wound.

"It seems that my weapon is really exceptional, I didn't think it was capable of hurting me. You attacked me, now it's my turn !"

Her hair bristled as she ran in our direction. The trash creature seemed to almost fly and every step she took broke the ground and stained it with blood. John still stood his ground despite his deep wound and wielded his sword with courage and determination.

"John, we are heroes ! Look out, she's coming !"

The she-wolf was still as graceful as she was in her human form, despite her size and appearance, but she didn't seem as flexible. John was swinging his sword back and forth to keep her from approaching him, while I was running for her to follow me.

*That's right, follow me, you dirty dog !*

The beast kept coming closer and closer to me, I could feel her hot breath on the back of my neck as I abruptly turned around to stick my blade into her skull.

"Predictable.."

It was impossible to dodge the weapon that was at that moment only inches from her skin and yet she did. Turning her paws instantly, she had also turned around to strike my outstretched arms and her sword with her tail.

"Aaarg my arms !"

Her tail was hard and had hit me hard causing me to drop the black-bladed sword. Right after that, with a powerful back paw, it was my turn to fly several feet before hitting the ice cage with my back.

"Uuurg !"

I didn't have time to get up before fangs dug into my leather armor before tearing it off. My top had ripped with it and I was left in my underwear as the subraces outside the cage snickered. Never had I been so humiliated and I could feel my face redden with shame and anger.

"You !"

My arms were shaking and every time I leaned on them it felt like a hammer was hitting me, so intense was the pain.

"You managed to hurt me, but in the end you lack of gumption, just like your little brother !"

The mention of Kirk rang out to me as I screamed, drawing on my strength to get up. I was in pain, I was ashamed, I was soiled, humiliated but I had to kill this horrible creature that was threatening all of our lives. I was shaking but I still managed to get the weapon back while glancing at John who seemed hypnotized by my almost naked body.

*This is a joke..?*

Suddenly, the she-wolf rushed at me to bite my leg in turn. In a movement to avoid it, I slipped and found myself face down on the ground, unable to understand what had happened. What I felt next was a pain even more intense than the one in my arms, in my foot. As I lowered my head, the monster's fangs were sunk deep into my right foot and I could hear the flesh ripping.

"AAAAAAAARGH !"

A gut-wrenching scream came from my mouth as I saw my foot detach from my body with a cracking sound and slimy sound. My head was spinning, my body was cold, sweaty, my vision was blurring and a black veil was obscuring my view. I had never felt such pain. Had Kirk felt this too ?

"Tsk..bitter."

While my mind could only think of two things, revenge and escape. The voice of my tormentor echoed near me. The she-wolf had spat out my foot with disdain and was licking her lips softly and meticulously, keeping her monstrous eyes on me.

*Wasn't I a chosen one ? It wasn't supposed to be like this !*

As I felt my spirit leave, ice appeared on the end of my leg to stop the bleeding. Lifting my head, the huge face of the beast stood only inches from mine and froze my blood. I could feel her hot breath that smelled of blood and I could even see shreds of my flesh, stuck in her teeth as she spoke.

"I won't allow you to die just yet..."

Deep down I felt that it wasn't over yet and I never thought I would do this but I had to live. I hadn't given up on my revenge, but I didn't want to die.

"Please...I didn't kill anyone in this forest...let me join you.."

I had just uttered this sentence to get out of it. I wanted to join them and destroy them from the inside but by saying those words I was giving up my pride as a human. I was humiliated and scorned.
