Chapter 25: Unveiling The Old Mysteries and Secrets, The Old Oya is Back
Oya didn't know how long she kept standing motionless in her position like this, however once her mind restored its freedom to think again and everything inside it was revolutionary changed.
"I'm not the only one who is trying to help him."
The first thing she muttered was these words, as this was her main concern right now. She discovered the presence of other girls, girls who weren't lower than her in beauty or personality or strength.
In fact she felt some weakness when she thought about those girls. She knew she was the latest addition to Rioneed's harem, his eleven wife. However she also knew all this happened because of her.
After all she wasn't in her past life a human, which was a strange fact that made her soul ever tremble.
She was once a demon, a high level fiend that fell in love with a mere human. He was a human, but she was ready to let everything she had and abandon all the glory and prestigious life in her clan and move to live beside him.
She fell in love, fell in it from head to toe. Now when she looked at all these past events, she didn't feel regret. Even in this life where she was reincarnated as a human, she still fell in love with him.
Despite she had no memory at all, her soul was always thirsty for him. that made her feel relief, her love and risk for it in the past wasn't groundless. That was the right act for her to do.
But she also knew now all the disasters that fell upon Rioneed and his harem, including her, came because of her.
She was the origin of this ordeal. That wasn't because she was forbidden for a demon to fall in love with humans, but it was because of what she knew.
She knew many facts, hidden facts that were hidden from all humans. Rioneed wasn't just a mere human, as he was one of the strongest humans in his time.
He was one of the few leaders of the human race that made the demon clan wary, and by joining him that made them more restless.
And so the old war erupted, a war that was destined to be lost from the start. She knew she couldn't tell Rioneed back then by all the info she knew, or even try to point towards the hidden facts even from far.
She was under a heavy restriction curse that had no solution except by death. This fact was known only to a handful of people inside the demon clan, and all of them were her true family members.
And from the face of things and the long strings of past events she realized that her family members didn't stand forth to defend her. They kept the knowledge of the restriction curse hidden, and thus everything began to deteriorate on an increasing scale.
However right now she felt gratitude for them, as their short sighted retribution and punishment had paved the road to her to break free of that curse.
She couldn't break free from it without being killed, and now after dying for real and got reincarnation again, and after regaining her true old memories back, she was finally free from that curse effect.
She was now free, and she could tell Rioneed, or Ibro about all the hidden facts she knew.
The only problem now was that she didn't know where Ibro went. She felt some pain and loss, as she had some vague feeling about the direction her love went to.
He must have met some of his old wives, although he didn't remember them as his wives, the true loving souls would be attracted together. She had to be prepared, as more wives would regain their memories as she did.
The fight over Ibro had just begun.
'I have finished viewing the memories you gave to me, and I know what happened in the past.'
She said to herself, or to her system. Although she got many memories, she didn't know why her past self was here in the form of a system. That was still a mystery to her.
'Good, before I grant you your reward, tell me do you have any questions about the past?'
Oya remained silent, as she had already many unanswered questions, however she started with the most urgent one in her mind right now.
'I-Is he ok?'
'Oh, even after reincarnation my other self is still in love with him. that man… never mind, anyway I don't know where he is or what he is doing right now. But I can tell you for sure that he is ok. If anything happened to him, then you will be subjected to a death penalty of the trial,' the system replied to her.
'So, as long as I'm alive he is well, right?'
'That's the simple way to assess this situation,' the system replied, 'Do you have any other questions?'
'Why are you here as a system? I didn't find anything related to that in the memories you gave me,' Oya asked her second question.
'That's a thing that was forgotten from my mind as well. As you know by now, I had interfered in the trial to save him from the rough start that was forced by the four clans. And as a price for that, I lost many memories as a punishment.
All I can tell you is this isn't a unique thing to me, as all other wives had their own systems as well. We have a strong competition going on here and so you need to work hard, work harder as I'm sure there is another wife who got her system activated at the same time as you did.'
Oya felt some threats coming from her system words. She knew she wasn't the only one with the system, in fact her system was originally the last to be activated. However now she was somehow reassured and pressured at the same time.
'Is she Maya?'
Oya had a hot figure in her mind, the first wife ever for Rioneed. She was the son of a noble and ancient human family. She had a very high esteem and pride, so they both were enemies in the past.
The moments of fight between herself and Maya were numerous. Nearly each time they were all alone without Rioneed, the atmosphere became explosive and they both ended up with severe wounds.
'Yes, you guessed it right. Also it won't be long before others to regain their old memories and activate their systems as well.'
Oya took a deep breath as the old self of her began to show up again. She was a stubborn and very strong girl. Although her only disadvantage back then had been eliminated now, which was her demon origin. Now she was totally human.
So, she was ready for this all open war with any harem no matter who she was.
'Can you help me become stronger then? I want to become the strongest ever beside him,' Oya muttered declaring her own intentions.
'Sure, I have planned everything out for you. You have more advantage than anyone else,' the system said.
'Why do you say that?' Oya asked.
'It's because you are in the crucial universe, the universe that everything must end up at. So, building your empire here would put you in a stronger position than anyone else,' the system replied with great enthusiasm.
