-- POV Freya --
Now that the "contract" thing was settled, it was ti to get her seal off. I had managed to save ti by finishing this mission quickly, but Gaya's ti was still running out. She was continuously releasing a huge amount of mana into the cave and with her damaged circuits her body was losing life.
*Kira, do you know how I'm supposed to do this? The seal is no longer powered by the 3 bags of EXP but those chains are still there.*
[Don't worry, it should be quick enough. Go to the altar where Gaya is and use your "Devouring Chaos" skill on the chains. This way you should get so EXP to level up and at the sa ti get rid of the rest of the magic that is hindering Gaya].
*Okay I see the picture.*
"Gaya, I'm finally going to keep my promise, just wait a bit and you'll be free!"*
"YES!"
I calmly walked over to the crimson scaled dragoness who was not hiding her joy and threw my chaos skill at the chains. They began to crackle and hum as I could feel a considerable amount of mana seeping through the black mist and boosting my stats, it was fast...very fast.
"How do you manage to do that?? That's amazing!!!"
Gaya saw for the first ti using a skill other than ice still without incantation and didn't seem to believe it. She was wide-eyed as the chains gradually dissipated absorbed by my chaos.
"Freya..who are you really?"
"Hahaha ~ ?.... a future empress."
I didn't want to tell her everything about my system, the mission given by Goddess Titania and my past yet. I was still a little scared, all this was new to , but maybe one day she would agree to listen to , I was strangely not closed to the idea.
While I was still lost in my thoughts, a series of notifications started ringing in my mind.
-- PING --
[ You earn 245,000 EXP ]
[ Condition t to advance to next level (22) ]
[ Condition t to advance to next level (23) ]
[ Condition t to advance to next level (24) ]
[ Condition t to advance to next level (25) ]
.....
After several minutes the last of them were displayed as the chains finally disappeared from Gaya's body. With a dull crack, the magic was gone. That was it, the work was done and Gaya was now free
[ Condition t to advance to next level (30) ]
[ The Devouring Chaos skill is now level 4 ]
*Phew I think it's over...*
-- PING --
[ Host is currently at level 30 - Would you like to upgrade? ]
[ YES/NO ]
I finally had the ssage I was looking forward to the most. In a few monts I would evolve my race for the first ti and discover my human form. But before that, I had to make sure that Gaya was okay.
She was now standing and towering over , she was still weak but I could feel that she was happy to finally be free.
"This is it...I'm free...Freya... thanks you !!"
I couldn't even imagine what it was like to be locked up for 10 years without being able to talk to anyone, move...without being able to live. After all she had been through, I was happy to see her smile. How long had I been like this?
*It all started with Kira* I thought with a laugh.
[Huh? What?]
*Ah hum... nothing*
As I watched Gaya, I could see that she was trying to move her limbs one by one to exercise her muscles. Her scales on her wrists, ankles and neck were still damaged and even torn off.
"How do you plan to heal?"
"Don't worry Freya, I'll heal by letting my body feed on your mana, that's the advantage of being bound...I an engaged. However, I think I need to get so sleep as the process is quite grueling."
I could understand her, regenerating her circuits and body even with my help must take a lot of mana and right now hers wasn't stable.
"Mmh no worries, I was planning to evolve. If you wake up before I do, don't be surprised at what you'll see."
"All right! Be careful. On that note...see you later..aww."
The fact that we were engaged hadn't changed much so far because we had agreed to get to know each other and so far everything was going great. What I didn't know was that Gaya was taking things very seriously and that her heart had already more or less decided.
[So it's ti?]
*Hell yeah !*
[ The host is currently at level 30 - Would you like to proceed with the evolution? ]
[ YES/NO ]
Taking a deep breath as I stood in the far corner of the room, I validated my answer.
*YES*
At that mont, a dark purple light appeared at my heart, then enveloped my entire body in a blinding beam. I could no longer see, hear or feel anything, my senses had disappeared. My consciousness faded as I fell into a deep sleep.

-- POV Gaya --
As I slowly awoke from my restful sleep, I could feel my body being much stronger and healthier than it had been a few hours ago. My scales were a bright crimson red and the ones that were torn or damaged were all healed and present.
"I'm not dreaming am I?"
I no longer needed to speak telepathically either and my voice echoed around the room. All of this had only been possible because of one person...Freya...my savior and fiancée. When I looked into her eyes, I could tell that she had not had a simple life. Her eyes did not belong to soone who was recently born and yet it seed that way. Freya was a mystery to .
I wanted to protect her and I wanted to lighten the burden she seed to carry for a very long ti. Despite her imposing presence, her cold and lodious voice and her imperial air, she had a heart like everyone else.
*Even if her heart is broken, I will be the one to fix it!*
I was determined in my mission. I hadn't known her for long, but as soon as I had seen her for the first ti, a desire to follow her had co over . Maybe it was fate...no...it was fate.
Coming to my senses I searched the room for a sign of that black she-wolf...she wasn't there. Moving into the darkness to check again, I saw a form lying in the corner, a human form.
"A human here? No way !!"
Cautiously approaching, I could see the unknown figure moving. The woman lying there seed to be waking up and scanning her body. She was from behind, so I couldn't see her face and she still hadn't noticed .
"1...2...1...2...Test...Test"
"..."
"How good it feels to finally speak out loud!"
I would recognize that voice in a thousand ! Firm, cold, majestic and full of confidence.
"Fr...Freya?"
As she turned and walked towards , I could finally see her human appearance. I was speechless and my heart began to beat furiously in my chest.
"So? How do I look?"
She was about 5'7" tall, and had long, dark hair that reached down to her waist. It had the distinction of having a white streak in it, though, which must have matched the white hair she had on her back in her wolf form. Freya had a perfect white skin, slightly pink, which brought out the intensity of her eyes. Deep dark violet eyes, piercing and glowing with dangerous ferocity. Her face showed no emotion, but I knew that the day I'll see her smile in this form..my heart would surely stop.
I wanted to see her pink lips smile...and in all my dragon life, this was the first ti I had seen such an incredible woman. She was beautiful...gorgeous, of a cold beauty, srizing and supernatural.
"You...you are beautiful.."
I could hardly speak in the face of this woman with such a strong presence and beauty. I was breathless, my heart was racing and I couldn't turn my head away from her face. Mine was heating up as I told myself she was far too beautiful...dangerously beautiful.
"Oh and look!"
Freya was unaware of her beauty and as I watched, she flashed two black wolf ears on her head, a tail on her lower back and two horns on each end of her forehead.
"This is my original humanoid form, but I can make these features disappear at will to look more like a human."
In front of stood a moon-perfectly beautiful she-wolf woman of about 26 years old.
Slowly coming to, a sudden detail jumped out at ...she was naked.

-- POV Freya ---
As I showed my new form to Gaya, I looked at the notifications I had recently received.
-- PING --

So much information was listed I didn't even know where to start! While I was thinking about how to proceed, Gaya spoke up.
"Freya...wouldn't it be better if you returned to your wolf form for now?"
"Eh? Why?"
Gaya was agitated and kept looking at only to look away imdiately.
"Um..Freya you don't have any clothes on."
[Ara ara ~ I have my back turned for five minutes and you are already naked in front of your fiancée !?]
Ignoring Kira's mockery, I lowered my head and as a strand of hair fell over my face, I saw that I was naked. I didn't really care but it seed to disturb Gaya. I hadn't seen myself in this form yet so I didn't really know what I looked like. Maybe I was ugly, or maybe I had a scar on my face...who knows.
Returning to my wolf form, I could see that once again I had grown. I was no longer 5 feet tall, but rather 5'7", I was as tall as I was in my human form. I was a giant wolf the size of a polar bear. The rest hadn't changed much so I decided to check in with Gaya.
"So Gaya, how are you feeling?"
[She certainly seems to have recovered well !]
"I'm in great shape! It will be a while before I can take my humanoid form as my MPs are slowly regenerating but I already feel like I'm saved and out of the woods."
"That's good to hear, perfect! For starters, is it possible for you to downsize? I'd like to look for a human city if possible so I can get there."
Now that I was level 30, I had decided to look for a human city because I had learned from Daggus that one was not too far from here. The plan was to settle down in an inn to finally check all my changes comfortably. To tell the truth I was longing for a bath and I couldn't stand sleeping outside or in an unhealthy cave. I wanted to leave right away.
"I can reduce my height to 1 ter, but I couldn't do more for the mont."
The dragoness shrank again and again to finally beco smaller than , she was a mini version of herself.
[Awwwww!]
She was pretty adorable I must admit.
"Yosh ! Hop on my back, I'll explain the rest of our journey on the way."
Gaya hesitated and seed nervous. Her reaction made chuckle.
"Eh? I...really? But you said that..."
"Kufufufu ~ Co on up I'm not going to eat you."
And so Gaya, Kira and I were off to find our first human city. Beware, the empress is coming!
