The Life Hacker System - 43 Your Majesties
Making her way through the palace, Aurora now realised just how obscenely big the palace was; especially considering only the royals were allowed to live there.
As she proceeded forward she took in the sights.
Majestic marble sculptures.
The most beautiful porcelain china.
Relics from civilisations long extinct.
Statues of great warriors who once lived.
She felt like she’d fell into some sort of illusion with all of the treasures surrounding her as she walked, which only became greater as she reached the doors to the throne room.
Standing before her were two giant doors carved out of ancient wood, which was, at the very least several millennia old. Next to the doors were two ordinary looking warriors in light leather armour, one male and one female, though they looked ordinary the power they were give off was anything but that.
Seeing Aurora standing before the doors, they gave each other a quick nod which was followed by both of them standing and calling out respectfully.
“Your Majesties, your guest has arrived.”
Only for a voice to reply back seemingly casually.
“Send her in.”
“As you wish.”
Not another word left the mouths of the two warriors as the doors were pushed open.
Aurora stepped into the throne room only to be greeted with a room that was so grand it belittled every other throne room that had ever existed, even the ones in myth. This was only emphasised by the pressure weighing down on her.
Arriving at the thrones of the queens, Aurora knelt and didn’t dare raise her head for fear of being disrespectful or being destroyed.
That was until a fairy like voice was head from one of the two thrones.
“You may stand child.”
To Aurora the voice sounded mystical almost magical as it drifted comfortable to her ears. Not wanting to be seen as rude she complied at once but still kept her head bowed.
A second voice was now heard. This one, though fairy like, was filled with power.
“Raise your head child, we do not appreciate talking to the top of it.”
Aurora’s head snapped up, her mind blown from the sight befell her.
She screamed like a fan girl internally at the two Queens. She thought that everyone who had met them before had greatly underestimated their beauty. The two before could only be described as goddesses.
One wore dark black medieval assassin style armour with a dagger strapped to her ankle and a dark blood red crown on her head. Her hair raven black, her eyes shone with a pure red lustre.
The other wore a loose fitting white kimono with a katana lent against her throne. The same crown sat upon her head. Her hair pure white, her eyes also shining with a pure red lustre.
Aurora stood there in a daze until the queen with a dagger spoke. Not knowing their names Aurora just decided to name them Dagger Queen and Katana Queen internally.
“You’re here to make a report and give us a letter, correct?
“That is correct, your Highness.”
“And what are you reporting about?” Asked Dagger Queen.
“One Taka Everlast, Your Highness.”
“Hmm, an interesting case that one… continue with your report.” Spoke Katana Queen.
“I was asked to observe subject Everlast and once enough information was gathered I was to capture or kill the subject depending on my decision.”
Katana Queen spoke.
“And what are your findings?”
“Initially he seemed normal, well smart, very smart, nay ridiculously smart but other than that normal.”
“So what changed?” Katana Queen asked curiously.
“He did, your Majesty.”
“Explain?”
“A fight broke out in a research lab he was visiting. One Abigail Joseph over stepped her bounds and unleashed what I could only describe as a monster.”
The Queens eyes widened in surprise before nodding for Aurora to continue.
“After seeing this, I decided to confront him, to test him and if he failed, to kill him.”
“And?”
Aurora let out a very deep sigh, much to the surprise of both Queens.
“I miscalculated…. Badly. He was far more powerful than had been reported. To begin with I held the advantage but in the later staged of the fight I was massively out classed. Especially when he transformed.”
“Transformed? Transformed into what exactly?” Asked Dagger Queen.
“Some form of wolf. Initially I thought him to be a werewolf but he was far too powerful to even be a Gaia wolf.”
“But they’re the strongest werewolf, scratch that they’re the strongest were creature to exist and you’re saying he’s a wolf but far stronger than even them?”
Aurora simply nodded.
Both Queens became lost in thought.
“So he beat you?”
“Yes, your majesty.”
Dagger Queen just nodded.
“And what happened after the fight?”
“He took me to a place to heal, spoke to me and then asked me to give you this letter.”
“Hmm curious indeed…. Did anything else happen while you were there?” Katana Queen asked curiously. She could tell Aurora was holding something back.
“May I speak freely your majesty?”
“You may.”
“Mister Everlast is accompanied by a wolf. I didn’t think it was anything at the time but after I was brought to heal, that wolf came and visited me…”
“And?” Dagger Queen asked now curious.
“That wolf is some kind of being.”
“What do you mean by that?”
“She was a wolf then she was a person.”
“So a supernatural then?” Asked Dagger Queen.
“NO.” Aurora shouted accidentally.
Both Queens’s eyes widened at the sudden outburst. Aurora quickly apologised.
“No she can’t be supernatural.”
“And why is that?”
“Because she’s far too powerful.”
“How powerful exactly?” Asked Katana Queen as her eyes narrowed.
“If I may be so bold your majesties. She’s at the very minimum at your levels of strength.”
“WHAT?” Dagger Queen stood in shock.
“You’re speaking the truth?” Questioned the other Queen. Aurora simply nodded.
“The letter is with you? If it is hand in over quickly.” asked Dagger Queen.
Aurora quickly handed the letter over. Both Queens opened it and read the contents.
…
Dear your Queenynesses,
I don’t like being fucked with.
Next time you want to send someone to kill me be prepared for the consequences because I won’t be so nice next time.
I’ll be making a visit to your royal establishment soon, so put the banners out and await the great me.
Oh and make sure Maya is safe because if she’s not be prepared to be DESTROYED.
Yours sincerely,
Taka-The bringer of Ragnarok
P.S
Fen says hi.
P.P.S
Fen says she’s coming with me when I visit.
P.P.P.S
Fen says she doesn’t like you guys.
…
They thanked Aurora and quickly sent her away. Once she’d left silence filled the throne room.
The Katana Queen was the first to break the silence.
“I do believe we may have brought trouble to our doors.”
“I believe you are right.” The dagger Queen agreed as she nodded.

Hi guys i’m thinking about changing how the attributes are levelled. Instead of numbers I was thinking a more wuxia based levelling system. So when Taka’s attributes hit 1,000 he’d enter a realm for example, the bronze or elementary realm. Anyone got any suggestions for this? All help appreciated 😀
Don’t forget to support me with power stones.
Comment, Rate, Review :D.
Thanks for reading. XD
