(Artoria PoV)
I make a chain around the neck of my new doggie, then drag him towards me. He grips the leash around his neck, in a effort to not choke to death, but finds himself alleviated by the sensation soon after.
When I have dragged him in front of me, I kick him in the stomach, just for the fun of it. I have to limit my power carefully, so I don't accidentally kill him.
"Kuh!" He speaks, or well groans...
"Take me to the control room." I say without emotion. He makes an effort to stand up, even though he's still in pain. I am satisfied when I see that.
I kick the door down and indicate him to show the way, so he gets in front of me and starts walking. So now a naked man, who has a chain around his neck, is being walked like a dog, by a woman in underwear. Certainly a strange sight, but I couldn't care less.
While we walk, I fall into thought. I'm a lot stronger now that I went through the metamorphosis to a demigod, or whatever it was, that the strange lady said. I don't know exactly how much stronger I became, but I do know that I changed at a fundamental level.
The memories I regained are incomplete. I have no recollection of my childhood up to the point I became a Dea. There are also holes in my memory since then. Small as they may be, they are still memories I have lost.
However with me regaining my memories, I also gained new ones and some information. I gained memories of me fighting all kinds of different creatures. These memories are very extensive, I feel as if I have been fighting a hundred years. But they are not just memories I gained. It's like I really fought for a hundred years and gained all that experience in fighting. So now even if I hadn't gained all this new power, I would have been incomparably stronger anyway, since my fighting skills have improved.
I also gained information on my abilities and how to best use them. I gained information about my new race, more indepth information about the world and more. Most of it is boring trivia to be honest. But some of it is incredibly useful.
I open up my the system in my necklace and check my status page. Man, how long has it been, since I've activated the necklace...
Name: Artoria Lucifer

Lex Talionis- Bound Weapon(Sword)
Divine Arith tree vines- Bound vines(NEW)
Snow- Familiar(Frost serpent)
------------------------
All of my abilities got stronger and I also got a few new ones. I got holy light and bestowal as the new ones. Holy light is self explanatory, it's the same as my cryokinesis. It grants me the ability to manipulate holy light. This is probably the most broken ability I have now.
Next Bestowal allows me to make someone a paladin. It doesn't matter who it is, if I use this ability on someone, I will make them my paladin. They will become completely loyal to me and will recieve supernatural powers. Of course they can reject my bestowal, if they desire. I need acceptance from the person to make them my paladin.
The Divine Arith tree vines are the floral, tribalistic tattoo on my left arm and chest. Should I use them, they come out of my left hand.
Similarly my sword, Lex Talionis, is the sword tattoo on my right forearm. I bought it from the system for an insane price, ages ago. And snow is the serpent tattoo on my back. I can summon and unsummon her.
"Hey you. Walk on all fours." I tell my doggie and kick him in the back lightly. He stumbles and looks at me, but obeys.
We continue walking toward the control room. Whenever there is a door in the way, I kick it open.
Soon a bunch of armed men appear. Foosh, I kill them all instantly. I have no idea if they were regular men or physically enhanced ones. How do you know if one ant is stronger than the other? In the end they're all just ants compared to me.
Soon we reach the control room unhindered. My doggie is shivering whether due to fear or the cold.
I kick the door open and discover two men inside. I conjure ice balls inside their stomachs and make them bigger. The two men explode.
Since my cryokinesis evolved into frost arcana, I can manipulate water and ice much more freely. I could kill them just by freezing all their liquids instantly. I don't even have to make contact with them in any form.
"Doggie sit." I give him a simple command and enter the room.
I quickly check the computers and the drawers for the plans of this building. I've been using my doggie as a tour guide, but he's annoying, so I would much rather find my own way.
"Tch, doggie come here." I say. He walks over to me on all fours. I stomp on him to relieve some stress.
"Much better." Then I continue searching.
I find the building plans within minutes and quickly memorize them. Then I leave the room and drag doggie with me. He has breathing issues, since I'm not gentle in using his leash. Honestly I could just kill him, but I have a feeling it would turn out amusing if I took him along hahaha.
Me and an unfortunate man, who is having the worst day of his life, tear through the building, killing anyone in our way.
....
-Inside the Haines mansion-
Samuel Haines is sitting in his office and doing his daily work, when a knock on the door is heard.
"Come in." He says.
A man holding a tablet, enters the room and bows. "Mr. Haines, there has been an emergency inside the Box. A prisoner has gone rogue."
"Hmm?" Samuel frowns and crosses his arms. "Which prisoner?"
"It's Artoria Lucifer sir." The man says and hands Samuel the tablet.
Samuel looks at the tablet and sees the video feeds inside the Box. He sees Artoria walking, in her underwear, while holding a chain, that's tied to a naked man, walking on all fours. She's literally tearing through walls and doors that stand in the way. Making her way to the canteen.
An amused smile formes on Samuels face. "So she got her powers back huh..."
He looks at the man. "Send in our Dea units and capture her." He says.
"Right away sir." The man leaves immediately.
Samuel isn't worried about it, since he believes his Deas will take care of her. Even if they couldn't, the Box is insanely hard to get out from. Artoria wouldn't be able to leave anyway in his opinion. Lastly if all else fails, he can just hit a button and the Box will explode.
He continues watching the video feeds on the tablet, keeping his eye on his soon to be subordinate.
....
I yawn, as I finally find the elevator that leads to the canteen. Massive props to whoever built this place. It's almost fucking impossible to navigate it.
I caused a whole lot of unnecessary destruction since I got lost for a bit and then got angry. The good thing is that no one is getting in my way anymore, so I guess that is a win.
I press the elevator button and wait patiently. Soon I hear a ding and the door opens. Then we take the elevator down to the canteen.
Once the doors open, I find a lot of people staring at me. It's the residents. Apparently they are done with their lunch and are trying to get back into their rooms. They look at us like 2 UFO's. I guess our clothing choice is quite unique, so I don't blame them.
I walk past them and head deeper into the canteen, looking for my usual spot. Finally I spot my target. A huge man sitting and eating.
"Oi Jorgen, finish your food and let's get out of here." I say without greeting him, while leaning on the table.
He looks at me with slight suprise. "What is the meaning of this, Artoria?"
"Long story short, I regained my powers and memories. Now I'm breaking out of here and taking you along with me." I explain casually, grabbing a piece of meat from his tray.
"Then I will come with you." He decides. I nod and wait for him to finish his food.
The naked man, chained to me is looking at us eith an aggrieved expression. He feels like he's been abused and forgotten, like some prostitute.
