POV Narrator
'Being the Eight True Heros is too hard!' Vinny thought and slump dowm into her chair and tiredly sighed at the amount of responsibility her master has given her before she died
'Subject 0000, subject 723 and Hiko Yokai' Vinny exclaim in her thought
'These three subject are the only Subject that survive the experiment, its unfortunate that Subject 723 and 0000 are hostile towards us' Vinny shock her head in disappointment
'I hope Hiko can convince Subject 0000 or Subject 723 to be our Allies, even if some conditions have to be met' Vinny thought, she hope that Hiko could convince them as she's the only Subject that is friendly

"System how much time do I have left?" I asked the system
[8 month before mission Expire]
"Eh? Only Eight months left?" I exclaim a bit surprise,
"Then I better hurry up!.." I jumped down the chair and glance at the few planted tree and large bushes but I didn't care about that
"Advance Angel Wing! Here we goooo!" I shouted excitedly, I unfolded my wings and prepared to fly, all the way to the training ground
*Swoooosh!*
With a flap of my wings I flew above the mansion in just a few second "Waahahahhhhahaha!" With a laugh I flap my wings and flew across the mansion heading towards the training ground, I put my right hand forward just like how Superman would have done it
"Hahahahaha!" I laughted childishly and stare at the purple grass and red tree below, with a wide smile "So this is how superman see the world!" I shouted and prepared for my landing on the training ground
After a few more minute of flying and messing around, I finally saw the training ground below, I immediately dive down feet first! Without thinking about the consequences,
*Booom!*
[-1 HP]
Dust clouded the area blocking everyone's sight, the dust slowly cleared and revealed Hiko in a hero pose
[+1 HP cause by [Health Regeneration]
"Muahahahahaahahaha! That was fun!" I exclaim, and got rid of the dirt on my clothes
*Clap* *Clap*" -Unknown
Hearing a clapping sound behind me, I hurriedly turn around and saw...a woman in a maid dress?
"What a wonderful entrance!" -Maid
"Ahmm..who are you?" I asked in confusion, the maid had purple hair and purple eyes, beside her hip was a katana? Weird, I never seen a maid with a katana before
"Oh my how immature of me... I am Freya, Vinny-Sama Personal Battle Maid...show some respect" Freya introduce herself and mutter the last part
'Freya? Where have I heard that name before?' I thought as I felt a sense of familiarity with the name
'Freya, Freya...freeeeeeyaaaa...Ah Hah! I know! It was the butler that said it! I think he said that Freya is a replacement while his gone right?' I thought as I remember where I heard that name before
"Nice to meet you to! Freya-San!" I exclaim while waving my hand towards her
"So Freya! Why are you here?" I asked her in curiosity but I think I know the answered why she's here
"That old butler made me replace him, your stuck with me for the time being" Freya with a annoyed tone in her voice, she seem to not like the butler from her tone of annoyance
"Okay! You can stay outside the training ground! " I bluntly said and shoo her away, she grunted in annoyance and walked away towards the entrance of the training ground while glaring at me
"Now that she's gone, let's test the new skill and evolve it to Advance Rank!" With that I open the Inventory and pull out a Teddy bear
"I start with Telekinesis first! Before trying out the other one" I nodded at that word and began to focus and imagine some kind of energy to surround the teddy bear in front of me
"Telekinesis! Living bear technique!" With a Chuunibyou line, the teddy bear started to be surrounded by a gray aura in all direction
[-1.000 MP]
'Hehehehe! Looks like all that year of watching anime and reading manga was worth it!' -Hiko
[+500 MP cause by [Advance Mana Regeneration]
I focus on that gray energy thingy and made the teddy bear slowly stand up on both of its leg, after it stabilise itself I focus and tried to imagine the teddy bear to slowly walk towards me
"Stop!" With a shout The teddy bear stop mid action without hesitation, I nodded in satisfaction and began to focus on imagining the teddy bear to raise its hand high in the air, and it did just that, the teddy bear raise both of its hand since I didn't imagine which hand it should lift,
"Ow! Ow! Ow!" I hold my head and lost focus, the gray aura around it disappeared, making the teddy bear fall down face first
"Ahhh! My head hurrrtt~" I complained almost kneeling on the ground at this point
[+500 MP cause by [Advance Mana Regeneration]
"System! Why didn't you tell me that it will cause headache!" I complained at the system, I hold my head and tried to massage it to ease the pain
[Host didn't ask]
"..." I gazes at the screen at a lost for words
"Hmght! " I hummed and ignore the system from now on
[...]
I pointed at the teddy bear and shouted "Now! Activate Telekinesis! " I activated Telekinesis again and the gray aura surrounded the teddy bear after a few second it completely envelop the teddy bear
[-1.000 MP]
I imagine the teddy bear to stand up, the teddy bear slowly stood on both of its lag in front of me and stabilise itself
"Mhm!" With a satisfied nod I focus my mind and tried to make the teddy bear float above the ground, the teddy bear feet slowly rise a few inches from the ground and stabilise itself again
"This is much more easier then Mastering Angel Wing.." I exclaim as I recalled the amount of time I broke my own spine....just because I flap my wing a little to hard
"*Shiver* atleast I got Pain Resistance and evoled Angel Wing to Advance Angel Wing, so it wasn't all for nothing" I comforted myself and focus back on mastering Telekinesis for the time being
"Now Fly towards me!" I commended as the teddy bear slowly fly towards my direction with ease,

It took Three Weeks to evolve [Manipulate Element] To [Elemental Manipulation], During this Four weeks the butler didn't come back to check up on me
"I should go and take a shower" I said, as I saw that my dress is a bit dirty
The battle maid Freya doesn't seem to like me and she would always find the opportunity to criticise me, but atleast she give me food and didn't hit me like one of those princess romance manga
"Doesn't matter! I will leave this game world sooner or later!" I exclaim with determination in my tone, once I find a way to leave this game world then I wouldn't have to worry about these petty thing anymore
I was dragged into this game world and died by some unknown mistake that a higher being made, it does not matter that the servant hate me nor does the criticism from Freya hurt me cause all of that will become meaningless once I leave this Game World and come back to the real world!
But in order to do that...I need to get Stronger and gain more Allies

"???" I stare in confusion at the Reward section
"How did it went from 50K to 100K?! I swear I remember it being 50k LP so why did it raise to 100k? " I asked in confusion, maybe the system has a answered to that
[+10 Point for being able to remember]
[Some unknown being had risen the reward]
"Unknown being again? Can you tell me who this unknown being is?" I asked the system with a curious tone
[Information related to the Unknown being is unavailable to the Loli system]

"??!" Hiko eyes widen in surprise
"Potion of Regeneration!? When did I obtain that!?" Hiko asked in surprise and regret at the same time
If she had known about that, then she wouldn't have wasted her time evolving her skill to advance rank skill
[Potion of Regeneration] Was obtain in the [Beginner Box]
The system answered Hiko question
"I remember now! How foolish am I? How can I forget about such a Important item!" Hiko exclaim in regret at not looking at the Inventory and instead went to evolve Her skill impulsively without thinking of checking the inventory at all
"Freya-San! Can you guide me to Subject 0000 Room?" Hiko shouted as loud as she can
*step* *step* *step*
Some footstep could be heard from behind her, Hiko turn around and saw Freya-San in her maid uniform attire
"What is it." Freya exclaim coldly, but once she saw Hiko dirty appearance, her face quickly change to a disgusted look
"Ew, with this behaviour of yours, no wonder no servant like you, especially your Demonic Eyes" -Freya
Hiko face darken at her words, Hiko eyes lost their light and become a cold eerie red gazes
"Take me to Subject 0000 Room" Hiko repeated her word devoid of any politeness she once had
"Hmght! Why don't you go there yourself." Freya scoffed as she cross her arms
'System check her Status' Hiko thought as she feel a strange emotion inside her stirring but she ignore it

"Return Home...." Hiko muttered as she stare at the Reward section, her hand tremble with excitement
"If I kill Freya...then will I be able to Return Back with [Return Home]?" Hiko muttered and read the information again
'But I never killed anyone before...not even in my past life' Hiko hesitate but her desire of going home was higher then her Moral, especially when her mother is still in the hospital waiting for her return
"Hahahaha" Hiko laughted as the strange feeling inside her had become even stronger
She felt it, she knows what this feeling is...it was the feeling of Desire...The desire to save her mother
"Tch! A race like you will never be appreciate" Freya insulted Hiko
Hiko eyes turn lifeless as she stare directly at Freya gaze, a gray and red surrounded Hiko body as a killing intent shot out at Freya figure
Freya Flinched and took a step back "Those eyes! It can't be!" Freya exclaim her eyes retracted and her body began to tremble as she recalled the time she saw those same Crimson eyes

Freya watched as the world burned down in front of her, her house, her friend....Everything was burning in front of her very own eyes
Freya glare at the person in front of her, "Subject 0000! You ##### I ######### Kill you!!" Freya tried to rush at him but couldn't as her body was restraint by the spear that impaled both of her arms against the ground
"Hateful words, but no action....I Curse you to eternal pain" Subject 0000 raise her right hand and a Spear materialise from it

Freya heard some kind of explosion and saw that something had knock away Subject 0000

"Wha..What....How...How did you..." Freya eyes widen, from beginning to end, she didn't feel Hiko presence at all, it was as if she was fighting a spirit race or a the ghost race she fought many time in the past
