-- POV Freya --

She looked at me with her beautiful eyes as I continued.

"You told me that you don\'t have parents and I would like to take care of you. So if you want, I can become your mom..."

Little Shiro just stood there without saying anything as her eyes started to cry. Before I could even add anything, she was throwing herself at me screaming and crying in her little voice.

"MOM...MOM...MOM...!"

Shiro was crying in my arms as she repeated the word she never had a chance to say before. She now had a family.

[Onee-san...I have to say it\'s pretty touching...]

Gaya was watching the scene from the other side of the bed but I could see a small tear running down her dragon face as she smiled.

"Sshhh everything is fine...now we are all one big family."

[Onee-san, she fell asleep. This little one must have been sleep deprived for quite a while to sleep so often. I wonder how she held up]

I put Shiro down on the bed still asleep from the emotion and fatigue accumulated during her little life.

A family. Reflecting on my words I thought it was time to tell Gaya where I came from and who I had in my mind.

*Kira...it\'s time !!*

[Yes..]

"Gaya...today I trust you enough to tell you who I am."

Her face lit up as if she had been waiting for this for a long time as I sat down beside her. I was ready to finally tell her my whole story.

-- POV Gaya --

I had been listening to Freya tell me her story, her past life and her goals in this world for over an hour now. I was shocked but not surprised...I knew in my heart all along that she was different. Even without knowing about her chaos and ice elements, as soon as she stepped into the cave where I was sealed, I knew.

I finally knew who my fiancée was and what her purpose was. I also knew that underneath her cold and domineering exterior was a heart ready to love those she deemed worthy of trust.

Freya was like that, the sweetest to her loved ones and the cruelest to her enemies. Because yes, her gentleness did not prevent her from being cruel to anyone who dared to anger her.

"There..you know everything."

I wasn\'t angry, I was just happy that she finally trusted me fully to tell me all this. Even though as a dragon I did and always would see me as her wife, I couldn\'t help but hope that one day she would see me the same way.

"It\'s still crazy that you possess a unique system and course bestowed by a Goddess !"

I was proud and at the same time scared of Freya\'s power. I, who had once been a dragon feared by all, couldn\'t help but feel very small next to her. And yet she had only recently been born.

*Sigh my fiancée is amazing..*

Looking at Freya I remembered the part where she was telling me about her little sister.

"So uh...I can\'t hear you but I\'m delighted to know you Kira, thanks for taking care of Freya and always helping her."

The black haired beauty kept silent as she seemed to converse with Kira then opened her mouth.

"She\'s delighted too and she congratulates you on uh...our engagement."

I felt my cheeks redden and heat up as I heard Freya say those words.

"I...thank you."

*I hope I can take my humanoid form soon enough, it\'s kind of hard to get close to her as a little dragon. It\'s kind of...weird.*

While I was lost in my thoughts, a very important piece of information connected in my mind to my horror.

"Freya...if I understand correctly your system also allows you to access other people\'s information right?"

"Yes that\'s it, why?"

"Do you by any chance...I\'m just saying...but have you seen my age?"

"Yes."

There she was, still with her impassive face as her answer felt like a stab in my heart.

*Arg system, why did you betray me ?*

As I cried inwardly, Freya spoke in a warmer voice.

"No matter how old you are, I remind you that I am 25 years old, not a few days old. Unless you are an old grandmother in your human form there is no problem kufufufu ~"

Freya was still the same, confident, strong and impossible to unsettle. This thought made me smile as I saw her smile warmly back at me for the first time. I had seen her smile at Shiro before, but seeing her smile as she looked into my eyes was a totally different experience. I told myself that my heart would stop if I saw her smile in this form and it did. Her smile....her smile was as dazzling as the full moon she loved so much.

*Damn...I sure do love her.*

-- POV Freya --

Gaya looked at me with incredibly soft eyes. I had never noticed it before but her amber eyes were really beautiful.

Coming to my senses, I decided to explain to Gaya my desire to go to the Dark Forest to save and help the races in trouble there rather than capture them as stated in the mission. Being in the know now about the system and everything else, it wasn\'t hard to tell her about my desire to start gathering subordinates.

"That\'s a great idea! When do you think we\'ll leave?"

"I would say in two days. I need to buy things for the trip, food, clothes, weapons.."

"I\'m sorry I can\'t help you right now...I\'ll get my human form back in two or three days if everything goes well. Until then I can only wait."

I could see that she felt guilty, but she still had to rest because her health was more important.

"It\'s nothing don\'t worry. I\'ll get little Shiro to help me and we\'ll be done in no time."

Saying that, I could see my adorable little girl waking up as she looked around. Stroking her hair and face, I asked her with a smile.

"Did you sleep well ?"

Shiro was sitting on the bed and she finally spoke.

"I...I slept well..thanks mom."

[Arrg I think I\'m going to die from too much cuteness. Don\'t worry my little Shiro, when auntie gets a body she\'ll hug you all the time !]

*What kind of nonsense are you talking about ?*

[Oi ! Hurry up and find me a body, I want to hold her !!]

*And what about me ?*

[First her...then you !]

*Aaah I\'m touched in the heart ! Meanwhile I can do this and you can\'t !*

As I said these words in my mind, I gently grabbed Shiro by the waist to hug her again.

"M..mom?"

"Yes sweetie?"

"I..can I really talk now?"

Nodding to her I began to explain that it wasn\'t wrong to talk and that it was only those silly humans who wanted to hurt her.

Despite her young age and lack of vocabulary, I noticed that Shiro was a very bright and intelligent child. She was a quick learner and quick to understand.

"Thank you for saving me mom...also thank you little dragon Gaya for making me laugh."

My little moon said these words as she stood in the room moving her body from right to left like her tail while looking down shyly.

[So cute...]

*Dangerously cute !*

We were all in awe of this innocent little girl. As I was telling her that we were going to leave soon and that I had to prepare the trip, she didn\'t want to let go of my jacket and wanted to accompany me. If I had known at that moment what was going to happen...I would never have let her come with me.

We were on the city street, still wearing our cloak and hood to be inconspicuous. Shiro was holding my hand and walking beside me. I had offered to carry her earlier, but she had refused, saying she didn\'t want to bother me.

It was slowly getting dark and the lights of the city were getting brighter. As we passed a small empty alley to go faster, I felt Shiro\'s hand shaking uncontrollably. In the distance, a group of children stood there and watched her, giggling, while my daughter held on tightly to my jacket.

Instantly understanding what was going on, I took her and hugged her tightly before walking over to the children.

"Is there a problem?"

The tallest boy who looked about 14 turned around and said to me.

"No Ma\'am, but the thing you are holding in your hands is not human. If you want, we can get rid of it for you."

Upon hearing these words, I flinched...what had he just said just now?

"Is it you who used to hit her for her hair?" I asked calmly.

"Yes yes it is me!"

He said this proudly before continuing with even more gusto.

"The last few days I haven\'t found her, it\'s a pity because I had planned to cut her hair and burn her arms with a burning iron, I heard it\'s funny! If you want, you can come see. Just give me that trash."

Putting Shiro gently on the floor, I whispered in her ear.

"Sweetie, close your eyes and cover your ears okay? I promise you everything will be okay."

Seeing that she had done as I asked, I slowly stood up before removing my hood to reveal my violet eyes glowing in the night like two gems. I only stared at the boy as I slowly walked forward while the other children ran off. The one who had been talking a lot a moment ago was mute and frozen in place. Reaching his height, his cruel words still echoing in my head, I grabbed both his wrists with my hands as he began to scream from my overly strong grip.

"So it was with those filthy little hands that you were beating my daughter? Interesting. Yet they\'re nothing special and are actually pretty weak."

I continued to squeeze his wrists as the cracking of his bones could be heard. He was screaming and crying but I didn\'t care, I could finally vent my anger despite my impassive and inexpressive face.

[Onee-san, you\'re scary when you\'re angry...]

*Oh ? right now I\'m pretty calm...you\'ve never seen me angry Kira.*

Loosening my grip and leaving his wrists scrambled, I brought my face close to him showing him my sadistic smile that hadn\'t appeared in a long time...too long.

"It\'s a lot less fun being the victim isn\'t it? I don\'t want to get too much attention so you\'re lucky tonight, I\'ll just make sure you can\'t walk or hold a fork anymore."

Licking my lips, with a light kick, I broke his right leg and then his left.

"If I hadn\'t controlled my strength at that moment, you would have already lost your life, your body on one side and your legs on the other."

Turning around to retrieve Shiro my heart stopped...she had disappeared. Only a piece of paper was lying on the ground where she was standing a few minutes ago.

[ AUCTION - SLAVES

Come and buy half-human slaves with unusual physical features. Meet at the mansion of Lord Fillbert Harker, who will be your host tonight ! ]

As I read these words, a murderous aura burst from my body and spread throughout the area...this time I was angry. I knew that Shiro had been kidnapped for that hair while I was far too focused on the young boy. I hadn\'t even paid attention to her, it was all my fault.

I had to kill, purge, and exterminate these humans who had dared to touch Shiro after promising her that everything would be okay.

"None of you will leave this mansion alive...I will show no mercy."

I then headed towards the mansion at breakneck speed, readying my ice and my fists. This night was going to be a bloody night dictated by my wrath.
