-- POV Freya --
It had been a week now since we had organized the positions and people were really starting to adjust. Everyone was healed as fortunately no one had been seriously injured. Most were malnourished and needed to eat, drink and rest. During this period of time, I had not been idle and had finished organizing what remained to be seen.
Each position had a leader who would be responsible for everyone and would report to those in charge to make it easier. So I had appointed the other members who were now appearing in my Kingdom menu.
For the management and all that was administrative Gaya had offered to be close to me and help me with it in all circumstances when our Kingdom grew. The chief of the assassins was Luna, the one of the physicians was Caipy and for the guardians it was obviously Ynir and Persea. As for the other positions, they were almost all new faces.
For the cooking section there was a half-rabbit named Irrena, she had been chosen by the others because her cooking was divine. I myself was very much in favor of this choice because Gaya, Shiro and I were obviously eating her food every day.
For the manufacturers section, the leader was a half-spider named Taegen. He was the oldest of his race and wove the best threads. His skills were exceptional and the clothes he created with the others were beautiful. Taegen produced yarn from his lower half which was that of a spider that had 6 legs and brown hairs running all over it.
For the section of those who volunteered to take care of the children, Viana, Naia's mother, was the leader. She had volunteered and the others had accepted. When we arrived near the sea, I planned to build an orphanage that would also be a school for the children to learn. Not all the children were orphans because out of the 25, 5 were with their families including little Hans. These children would only come to learn just like Shiro but I wanted to create an environment that would be conducive to their development.
For the building section, there were several leaders because each one excelled in a field. Tar and Kan two minotaur twins for carpentry, Naghel and Eurytion two centaurs for architecture. All four of them shared the organization of the workers, of which Naia's father was a part, and were already preparing plans for the buildings that I had asked them to do.
As for the farming, there were also two leaders, an elf named Ylindros and a half-rabbit named Kayla. They would both be in charge of managing the crops, making sure everything was going well and giving directions to the other farmers. Although each was an expert in the field, good organization required one or more section leaders.
We didn't have a blacksmith yet, so that left hunting, which was led by a male wolf named Wol. There were five of them in all and they were white wolves from the same clan of which Wol was the leader.

All of them were now in my Kingdom menu so I could contact them at any time by telepathy no matter where I was. The connection could only be made by me thanks to the system, but this function was one of the enormous strengths of this menu. I could also access their status at any time as long as their names were in the system.
*Things are starting to go really well. I think we can leave here tomorrow morning !*
[It's true, this week has been exhausting for you, but the result is worth it. Now all you have to do is set up your kingdom and name it].
I still hadn't found a name and since we weren't really at the place where I wanted to start building, I had even used that as an excuse to get out of the way.
During this week I also took the opportunity to allocate my 300 attribute points that had been lying dormant for far too long.
____
Strength: 340 > 390
Defense: 336 > 386
Agility : 350 > 400
Stamina: 353 > 403
Speed : 342 > 392
Intelligence : 340 > 390

I had simply assigned 50 points everywhere so that there was not too much difference. My strength was such that I could crack a small mountain with one punch. My skin was as tough as steel while my reflexes, flexibility, agility and speed were in the realm of the impossible. I didn't think I was the strongest person in the world, but as I gained more and more attribute points, my skills rose to levels unattainable by any race in this world.
I had not done this in front of everyone but rather hidden in the tent so that no one could see me because no one knew yet about my two elements and my special course. The female commanders had a lot of questions and guessed that I was special, but I could see that they didn't dare to ask for fear of making me angry. For the moment I hadn't planned to tell them yet, and my chaos element wasn't really as useful as my ice element, to my great misfortune. That said, Kira had informed me that it was possible that I would develop a chaos attack and defense skill, which was a new thing to add to my long list.
The girls' training had also been a success. When I met them, they were all level 15 except for Naia who was level 10. Today, by training them relentlessly, I was able to increase their levels by two points each. Each commander was personally in charge of training their soldiers who also benefited from the advantage of my system. They were weaker and started from scratch, but I knew that their efforts would pay off one day, as would their determination.
As I had announced at the commanders' meeting, the girls also trained with me in their spare time. We would go into the forest many times to hunt for creatures that could earn them EXP and then end the day fighting against me.
During these times, I would always take the opportunity to explain to each of them what was wrong with their stances, attacks or reactions.
Ralph often tended to be overconfident and let her guard down to attack. She needed to be more strategic, which would make her all the more formidable because she already had a keen and calculating mind. The hybrid woman also needed to learn not to push her body too hard because her rage to win prevented her from taking a critical look at her condition. That's why Ralph had been hurt by Grim, the first time because he had managed to fake it and the second time because she had found herself more exhausted than expected.
Nixia had to work on her weak point close combat, in order to be able to deal with all situations. Her technique of hypnotic movements with her snake tail was very practical but she had to be able to react at 360 degrees. The lamia worked on her dead spots while perfecting her already exceptional control of her black flames lances.
Emilia was undoubtedly the most gifted because even without magic, her strength coupled with her agility and speed almost surpassed even Ralph's technique. Her mastery of the sword was also incredible, but she lacked stamina and more precise movements, which was her weak point in a fight that lasted. When she had fought Jessica, the cat woman had relied on strength, sometimes giving useless blows that made her get tired. Emilia was almost cornered by the enemy while she was exhausted and without her mental steel things could have turned out badly.
Luna was good at sneaky, deadly attacks, but her weakness was numbers. The day I met her, despite the difference in levels and numbers, she still managed to hold her own against four mercenaries. The idea was to train her to face several opponents with her weapons and her element to get her used to dealing with such situations. As a spy and assassin, it was quite possible that in the future such events would occur due to unforeseen circumstances. So Luna could not always rely on her discretion.
Trioa was trained by Gaya who could help her to fight in the air. In this field I was not really of much use so I was only content to throw ice spikes from the ground. The gray-haired half-wyvern had good control of her wings so her training consisted only of following Gaya through the forest as she flew at high speed avoiding the trees and the dragoness' attacks.
Thorunn as a vampire had strength, the wind element and good speed. What she lacked was experience in combat as she relied too much on her vampire strength and canines to kill. But if a stronger enemy were to come along, she would end up in big trouble too. The vampire was now the commander of the versatile attack section of the army, so she had to be powerful in hand-to-hand combat as well.
Ynir and Persea were training together to perfect their teamwork. The dryad was also working on hand-to-hand attacks while the butterfly woman was working on her light element by strengthening her illusions. She didn't have much strength compared to the others, so for the moment it was Persea who took care of this part, supported by Ynir's magic.
Naïa, due to her youth, lacked experience in everything and was training sometimes with me and sometimes with the other commanders. She was working hard to catch up with them and her naive and airheaded spirit was gradually changing into a focused and determined spirit not to give up.
Finally, Caipy spent most of her time collecting plants and teaching her small group all the secrets of nature. Her training was also essential because even though her section was less combat oriented, she had to learn to fight. The dark elf used her knowledge of different poisons to compensate for her lack of experience which was very clever while training.
These numerous fights had also been very beneficial for me because I had managed to increase the level of several of my skills by using them. My "infernal ice spikes" skill had risen to level 6, my "ice wall" to level 5 and my "demonic aura of the Empress" to level 5 as well.
[I'm impressed by the number of things you can do. If I were you, I'd be exhausted, slumped in bed].
Indeed, for a week we were all living a rather strenuous lifestyle as we prepared to leave the mountains at the same time. I had told the whole camp a few days ago and we were finally ready to leave and set up our kingdom by the sea.
While I was in the tent resting and thinking about everything we had done during this week, my dragoness wife slowly came in to talk to me.
"Freya, I think everything is ready ! They are just waiting for your orders, as for me I have been ready to go for a while."
"Perfect, thank you."
I couldn't leave my daughter again, my responsibilities and my subordinates for the moment so Gaya had offered to go and get those who were still in her old cave in the Forest of Syn. She knew the way well and was strong enough to protect them on the way back. I was a little skeptical at first but I couldn't handle everything and I had to trust her, I had to believe in her strength and her ability to return without a single injury.
"I would contact you every day by telepathy, morning, noon and night. If you should not answer, I will not hesitate to come. If anything should happen to you..."
I couldn't finish my sentence as my eyes glowed more and more wildly as my body grew cold. I knew that if Gaya got hurt, I would totally lose my temper like I had never lost it before.
"Don't worry honey, I'm strong don't forget that ! You don't have to be the only one carrying the burden of an entire Kingdom, I'm here too. I promise you I'll be back with those you saved in Yarlford before you even have time to worry."
She hugged me as she whispered her words and my heart soothed.
"Promise me..."
"I promise."
