Yukina Freezis

"I have to write the rest of the story."

- Yukina Freesis

Yukina Freesis is a famous writer of the Freesis family. Writing stories since her youth, she published numerous classics during her lifetime. Among her most popular titles is "Daughter of Evil", written after investigating Princess Riliane and the Seven Deadly Sins.

Early Life
"If you like the life there, then you can become a nun. But I do hope you will come back to my home. Without you, Yukina will become lonely.”"

- Keel to Clarith

Born in EC 491, Yukina moved into the Freesis Mansion in Aceid, Elphegort while very young. Early on, she showed a love for reading and writing, which earned the attention of her father, Keel. Buying her Rollam bird feather pens, the child began writing her own stories or sometimes had the servants do so instead for her. Around EC 497, her mother read the story of Vampiress Vanika to Yukina, scaring the child. Despite knowing it was a work of fiction, the six year old was unable to sleep that night. In EC 499, she came under the care of Clarith and grew attached to her unique appearance and ability to serve her needs. When Keel returned from Princess Riliane's birthday party, Yukina ran straight into him, excited to hear he came back. Expressing her disappointment he didn't come see her first, Keel promised he would read her a story to make up for it. Months later, Yukina had woken up during one of her father's parties and yelled at Clarith for running in the halls.

During the Green Hunting, Yukina weeped when she said goodbye to Clarith while the Netsuma girl comforted her and promised to make her a cream cake when they saw each other again. Like the rest of her family, Yukina was imprisoned at the Lucifenian Royal Palace and was released months later, staying at Koopa's mansion. A few days later, Yukina met Germaine Avadonia and the one-eyed York as they arranged to meet with her father. Clarith later arrived and Yukina immediately clung to her leg in excitement. Led into another room, she watched silently with her mother, Mikina, as Clarith broke down in tears and asked if she was okay. On the day of Clarith's departure, Yukina cried and gave her a book with all her stories she had written, up till that point.

Life in Marlon
"Next, I’m going to write about The Daughter of Evil!"

- Yukina's resolve as a child

During the Lucifenian Revolution, Yukina and her family fled after the area was liberated by the Resistance and moved into the Freesis mansion in the Kingdom of Marlon. Sometime after, the family was visited by Elluka Clockworker and Gumillia. Living with them for several months, Yukina was often accompanied by Gumillia and played with. At some point, she was lectured by her for not using honorifics. Sometime after they left, Yukina was desperately writing when her father asked about it. She responded she was writing a snake and frog story and later was confused by her father's laughter while reading a letter. After finishing her story, she had Keel read it and told him she would write about The Daughter of Evil next, captivated by the recent Revolution against Riliane's reign. In EC 501, Yukina heard their names again when King Kyle added them to the Witch Hunt. As time passed, Yukina wrote numerous books that her father published, growing in fame as a novelist across Evillious. Due to her continued interest in the revolution, Yukina studied the event closely and its people involved.

Journey Abroad
"Eh? You ran away from home?" "I didn’t run away from home... I’m on a journey for knowledge."

- Germaine Avadonia and Yukina

Around EC 504, Yukina read the historical account of Will Jaques and became interested in his writings about the "Seven Deadly Sins" and those said to be possessed by them. Finding the name "Elluka Clockworker" included in the century-old text, Yukina became interested in researching the Sins and understanding exactly what happened with The Daughter of Evil and Kyle's current regime. Although opposed by her family to leave, Yukina snuck away from home and voyaged to Divine Levianta. While in the snowy northern country, she met a teenager who related the tales of Banica Conchita being possessed by a glass vessel of sin that made her into an "Evil Food Eater" and, skeptical the vessels even existed, didn't believe the tale. She later embarked towards the neighboring Asmodean, but the border guards refused to let her cross until she bribed them. Arriving in Asmodean, she investigated the Venomania Mansion ruins in Lasaland but found nothing. At some point, she met a group of mercenaries there and they instructed her in proper fencing and self-defense. Yukina continued on her journey and crossed over to Lucifenia. Restricted in many of her actions due to being a foreigner, the young writer decided to leave for the Beelzenian Empire.

Star-Shaped Fortress
"The soldiers at the fortress entrance say that Commander Mouchet is scary, like a monster, and cruel, like a demon. They say that the Commander orders them around like slaves! Miss Lily must also have suffered while working under that kind of person, right?"

- Yukina to Commander Liliane Mouchet

After Yukina travelled to Retasan Fortress, she checked in at the Half Moon Pavillion and stayed there for three days before heading towards the fortress' for Beelzenia. While walking through the city streets, her hat flew in the wind and rushed to pick it up when a blond-headed soldier did so for her and she thanked her before running off again. At first, she was prevented from entering Beelzenia but the fortress commander, Liliane Mouchet, helped Yukina pass through the entrance. Stopped at the front gate, one of the two guards told her she wasn't allowed and, pressing him for why, was stated it was military problems. Told she wasn't allowed to know the details, she told the arrogant soldier that Marlon must have had a hard time controlling guards like him. Faced with the guard's outburst, the other guard approached her and kindly apologized, explaining it was classified. Placing a gold coin in his hand, she asked if there really was no way to pass but the guard returned the bribe, saying Commander Mouchet would kill him if the "demon" officer knew he accepted it. Giving up, Yukina returned to the hotel.

After explaining she already paid the  bill, the owner returned her identification papers and Yukina headed to the bar. Paying the waiter two coins for a white Rollam bird meal, Yukina spied the blond-haired soldier from earlier and thanked her again. The writer joined the soldier and she spoke about her experience at Retasan when her meal arrived. Asked about why she went toward the gates, Yukina explained her situation and the soldier elaborated on the political friction between Marlon's Lucifenia and Beelzenia. When the blond woman mentioned higher-ups saying Beelzenia was harboring criminals, Yukina pressed her to know more but she said it was classified and said it was likely war would break out, hence why traffick to and from Beelzenia was limited. Angered that such a small issues was halting her journey, she punched the table and cursed that it was an excuse for them to expand their territory. Realizing her blunder, she was surprised when the soldier laughed and agreed with her.

Grateful, she explained how poorly she was treated at the gate and criticized Commander Mouchet for being so awful. Remembering her manners, Yukina asked for the soldier's name and she said she was called "Lily". The child then ranted how Lily must have suffered under Mouchet's cruelty the guards mentioned and that sensible people like her should be leading them instead. at that moment, a soldier entered to discuss military matters with Lily and addressed her as "Commander Mouchet" before leaving. As the revelation came over her, Yukina aksed for Lily's full name and, when she stated it was "Liliane Mouchet", the child immediately apologized but the commander encouraged her to eat before the food grew cold.

Over the course of five days, Yukina was constantly spending her time with Commander Mouchet while walking through the streets, learning about her father, Gaston, and character. On the fifth day, Liliane promised to help Yukina get to Beelzenia. While window shopping later on, Liliane asked if she needed a new pair of shoes and Yukina noted the commander's good mood. Brushing her off, Liliane said they should focus on their goal and asked why she wanted to go to the Red Country. Yukina responded that she wished to visit the ancient city there, though not an enthusiast. Coming up with a plan, Yukina tried posing a question and Liliane asked if she had wanted another pair of shoes. Brushing aside she would like them but could still use her old one, she inquired if they could send a messenger to Beelzenia. The army commander asked why due to the danger and she explained her elation to Keel and how they could use her Freesis name as weight and the surprised Liliane agreed, sending out the messenger that day.

Eighteen days later, Yukina awoke to the sound of Liliane shouting outside and the soldier quickly stomped into her room, demanding she get dressed. The writer obeyed and asked why Lily wanted her suitcase and Mouchet replied Yukina was heading abroad. On their way towards the gate, Lily explained that her name didn't cover it but that her acquaintance to Keel pushed the plan's success. At the gates, Yukina watched as Liliane hurriedly barked orders for the gates to be opened. Curious, Yukina asked why she was hurrying her out and the commander explained that King Kyle ordered troops to arrive that afternoon and it was difficult to get her visa approved. Yukina thanked her again and Lily told her to folow the road to Rockbane and that, if she was stopped, she should show the guard her permit, given the paper. Excited that she was heading to "Vampiress Vanika's" area, Yukina accepted Lily's advice to stay alive and be wary of impending war and headed out into Beelzenia. source

Meeting the Past
"It’s decided! I want to live together with everyone!"

- Yukina

Along the road, one of the checkpoint guards reported Yukina was summoned to the Imperial City but she ignored the call. Once she arrived at Rockbane, the young novelist went to the city center and looked through her outdated map. Finding her way to the Conchita Mansion atop the mountainside ruins, Yukina searched for Banica's vessel of sin but came up with nothing. After taking out her notepad, she sighed by the lack of "drama" and couldn't write anything. While gawking at the landscape, she heard someone approach, noting she should have received the summons. Failing to put off she must've wandered into the wrong castle, the green-haired woman said she shouldn't worry her father and Yukina angrily barked she should mind her own business. When the woman responded she hadn't change and should use honorifics with her, Yukina recognized it was Gumillia and immediately embraced her friend.

The two then stayed at a hotel in the north-western region of the empire. During lunch the next day, Gumillia agreed to help Yukina meet  the revolutionary hero, Germaine Avadonia. After their meal, they set out to meet with Chartette Langley. Although Gumillia suggested they take a carriage, Yukina insisted they take the short walk towards the meeting place. As they traveled, Yukina questioned if the sorceress was bothered by it and she replied she didn't mind. When the child noted how different she looked, wearing glasses, Gumillia asked if it was strange and Yukina said it suited her. The young writer then questioned why she wasn't in a far eastern kingdom and Gumillia explained how she was called to serve the Emperor and that Elluka had gone missing. Afterwards, she asked if the mage was alright, given the Witch Hunt. Gumillia then confirmed for the child that she had helped Yukina enter the country and asked why she bothered to come. Omitting mention of Sin, Yukina said it was for knowledge and expressed concern if she didn't go to the city, though Gumillia brushed it off as her orders and that she knew the child wouldn't listen.

Although insulted, Yukina brushed it aside when they arrived at the cemetary and Gumillia explained both she and the Langley Troops lived there. Meeting Chartette, Yukina introduced herself and was suddenly barraged by the soldier's excitement to have met her favorite author befoer Gumillia sent her flying with a tombstone. Concerned, she asked if Chartette was alright and Gumillia assured her she was tough. Journeying to the camps together, Yukina noted Chartette's revolutionary heroism and asked about the details of her fight with Mariam Futapie. At the camps, Yukina aksed to look around a bit but Chartette said that Germaine was perhaps at the headquarters. Led there by the batallian commander, Chartette explained how the original resistance army became Beelzenian soldiers but noted that was what she had heard, since she only joined a year ago and was immediately made captain. Although Yukina was impressed, Gumillia whispered to her that there weren't any other candidates.

After Yukina asked what she was doing before, Chartette said she, like Yukina, liked to travel, and they entered the headquarters. Reintroduced to York, she happily took his hand and recounted their last meeting. Seeing his prosthetic leg, she asked what happened and he explained that one of Lucifenian's female commanders broke it with a lance. York then got caught up in an argument with Minage before the green-haired male introduced himself and Yukina recounted his contributions to the revolution's success. When York learned the child wanted to meet Germaine, he questioned her and half-lied that she wanted Germaine's interview for a future story about The Daughter of Evil. Although finding it unneessary, he told her to try looking around and Yukina obliged. As Gumillia departed, Yukina promised to visit her again when she had free time.

Seeing Chartette was busy and torn over whether to work or continue guiding her, Yukina bowed out and looked around the encampment. Noticing movement by the trees, she checked to find Germaine passed out. As the woman mumbled, Yukina said she'd call for help but her skirt was grabbed by Germaine, mumbling her nightmare aloud. Once Yukina sat her up against the tree, Germaine apologized for her drunk stupor and Yukina lectured her for drinking during the day. After she reintroduced herself, Germaine asked how Keel was doing and Yukina admitted she didn't know since her journey, insisting she didn't run away. When the swordswoman mentioned she travelled as well, Yukina asked if it was with Chartette and Germaine affirmed it. Pressing her about what troubles she faced after leaving, Yukina asked about the Witch Hunt and Germaine's reported intentions of rebellion. The swordswoman denied the claim as mere fabrication, and stated Kyle had suddenly been trying to eradicate both her and the Resistance.

Yukina then noted how Kyle believed she murdered Michaela to incite the revolution and Germaine questioned how she knew this information. Lying, she said she heard it during her journey and asked if it was true that she murdered Michaela, explaining her relationship to her. Promising she just wanted to know the truth, Germained conceded that she never even met the green-haired Diva. After a long stare, Yukina said she believed her, earning Germaine;s anger that she didn't know anything about her or anything else. Although having already planned it out, Yukina pretended to think about how she could better acquaint herself with the warrior, deciding to live together with the troops. When Germaine objected, Yukina noted how the Freesis Firm's financial assistance kept them going, that Captain Chartette was a huge fan of hers, and that even the royal family was supported by Keel. Admitting she wasn't ashamed to use her family relations as collateral, the stunned Germaine called her an evil girl and gave up her opposition.

Touring Beelzenia
"Who knows, it might not be long before we are officially at war with Lucifenia..."

- Chartette to Yukina

Soon after, Yukina met with the Beelzenian Emperor and receieved permission from him to stay at the Langley Troops, along with his promise not to reveal her location to Keel. Deciding to tour Beelzenia while investigating Banica Conchita, Yukina informed the Emperor and he introduced her to Duke Oruhari, an expert on Banica. Over time, the Duke took Yukina across Grabia to visit places associated with the famed Evil Food Eater while also reading more on her history. Learning that the Emperor of the time entrusted a sorceress with investigating Banica, Yukina suspected a connection to Elluka but found nothing else useful to her research. Towards the end of this period, Chartette related how she worked as a maid at the Lucifenian Royal Palace before the revolution.

Two weeks since she first met the Langley Troops, Duke Oruhari took the writer to the New Moon Sea and described its history to her. When the Duke asked what she would like to next, she replied she would drop her investigation into Banica and focus on Princess Riliane. Thanking him, the Duke encouraged her to return when she had free time and Yukina teased that he said that to other girls as well. Insulted, he reiterated his words were sincere and she played along. Saying she'd return when she had the time, she laughed alongside him before returning to the Langley Encampment.

At some point, she and Gumillia agreed to see each other at the capital the next afternoon. At the Langley encampment the next day, Yukina saw Chartette speaking about something serious to a soldier while she arranged her past few days of notes. Checking her watch, Yukina finished getting ready when Chartette finished her meeting, saying she just need to report to the capital. Expressing she was heading there too, Chartette said they should go together and grabbed her hand before walking them towards the city. As they walked through the graveyard, the scared Yukina asked if the soldiers they passed were her subordinates as well, trying to ignore the frightening atmosphere. Chartette answered they were but weren't defending at the moment and Yukina pressed for details, though told it was classified.

When Chartette halted, she asked what was wrong but the soldier only threw some branches into the fog ahead and they saw a figure ahead. Seeing a golden-haired woman in a Marlon uniform approach them, Yukina hid behind Chartette in fear of her hostile smile. Yukina then watched as the two exchanged banter about their past as maids and how the blond woman killed Chartette's men on the border because the peace treaty between Marlon and Beelzenia was annulled. The woman then shifted her attention to Yukina, wondering where she met her before and Yukina apologized that she didn't remember.

When the Marlon officer introduced herself as Ney Futapie, Yukina was about to introduce herself in turn but Chartette stopped her, demanding Ney leave or she'd fight her. Ney then mentioned how Chartette killed her mother and Yukina remembered the golden-haired assassin's identity. As the maniacal Ney suddenly toasted to them with a wine glass, saying Chartette would drink with Allen and the others later, Yukina responded in confusion that her name wasn't Allen. After the manic Marlon officer poured the glass upon the ground and it began to shake, Chartette and Yukina agreed to flee and headed towards Rockbane.

The White Army
"Doesn’t that person bother you? He looked very strange as if all rationality was gone." "I doubt he was even human."

- Yukina and Chartette

The two arrived in Rockbane and, after regaining her breath, Yukina asked what just happened. Yukina then proposed they continue on to the capital and see if Gumillia knew anything about the situation and Chartette agreed. As they trudged on, Chartette expressed her disbelief that Ney became a Marlon soldier and Yukina, about to ask about the topic, stopped herself since Chartette wa sin the same position. The two continued conversing about Ney's off behavior when a woman's scream was heard. Rushing over to its source, they saw the panicking citizens run from a group of figures in the distance. The Beelzenian commander, worried it was a crazed drunkard, told Yukina to stay while she handled the situation and Yukina watched the confrontation, worried it might have been Germaine. Seeing their struggle ensue, Yukina approached them and realized the figure was a pale, naked man and cried out that it was a monster when it looked at her. Chartette told her to run and the writer said she couldn't fight the creature weaponless.

Just then, Chartette defeated the creature with her rocket glove and Yukina, stunned by the weapon she witnessed, leaned against the wall to process it. Getting a closer look at the monster's appearance, she realized it had a bloodied mouth and, realizing the meaning, asked Chartette if she was hurt but the soldier brushed it off as a graze, standing between her and the monster. The soldier asked if anyone was nearby and Yukina said they must have all seeked refuge. Using this as their change to escape, they ran until they reached a wine bar. Asked if she was alright with all the running, she replied she was fine despite her exhaustion. Seeing the monster didn't follow them, Yukina questioned the creatures rationality and Chartette expressed doubt it was human. When she mentioned treating it's attack, Yukina shivered at the image of the creature's bloodied mouth.

She then inquired what weapon Chartette had used and she explained it was only for emergencies and that her broadsword was being repaired. As Chartette was about to look for help, she stopped and headed inside the wine bar and Yukina followed. Finding Germaine inside, Chartette attempted to wake her while Yukina noticed the amount of wine she consumed before passing out. The novelist, seeing Germaine's sword, asked if they could borrow it and Chartette said she wasn't skilled with fencing, though Yukina retorted it was better than nothing. Once the soldier took the weapon, Yukina saw the creature at the window and cried out to Chartette. With the bar keeper in shock and Germaine drunk, Yukina was told to close and lock all the doors and window while Chartette fought off the monster. Wishing her luck, Yukina did as she was told. While comforting the bar keeper, the old lady said the creature was her son who had died of the Goula disease. When the fight was over and a knock came at the door, Yukina checked before letting the victories Chartette back in.

After a small rest at the bar, they sent for a wagon to take the monster away and, asked about her mood, Yukina said she'd talk about the details later. While collecting her thoughts, she saw the Beelzenian army heading towards Rockbane and pointed it out to Chartette. As the tired pair approached the Imperial City, Yukina noted to Chartette the army's fatigue, seeing the soldiers retreating from the massive undead army. Finally inside the capital, they met with Duke Oruhari, asking if she was alright, and Yukina asked why he was in the city. Learning all the nobles were convening to discuss the white monster threat, Yukina was given a room to wait for Gumillia in. As she waited for Gumillia to finishing speaking with the Emperor, Duke Oruhari waited with her and explained they called them "undead soldiers" from the Vampiress Vanika tale and believed the dead were reanimated, since the Emperor's father was leading the army.

Chartette then entered, having finished her report, and Yukina asked about their next course of action. Chartette suggested they had to prepare for battle then notified her that Gumillia was too busy to see her. Yukina responded that she'd tag along with her instead but Oruhari refused, stating she needed to be kept safe during the emergency and remain in the city. Although trying to object, the Duke stated it was the Emperor's will and Chartette agreed; as the two parted, Yukina wished her well. Escorted to her room by an attendant, she looked at the furnishings and became frustrated by the situation.

Aiding the Battle
"I intend to stay in this country for some time..." "Well anyway, it’s useless to leave the country... The next step is to usher in a real war."

- Yukina and Lily

Three days later, Yukina snuck out from the Imperial City and became a medic for the Langley Troops. As they fought in the streets of Rockbane, she gave the soldiers food and water while congratulating them for their hard work and attending to their injuries. Germaine approached her and asked why she wasn't at the capital, advising she stay away from the front lines. Saying she just wanted to help, Yukina asked if she was being a burden but Germaine denied it, retorting she was actually a big help, although noting York might not like the idea. Yukina also admitted it was also a rare experience and Germaine sighed at how she treated war like a game. Soon after, the group was approached by Liliane Mouchet on horseback, an undead soldier impaled on her lance, and she announced that she the "former" commander of Retasan desired an audience with the Emperor.

Following Lily back to the Imperial City, she met up with Gumillia and told her about her and Chartette's experience with Ney. Asking if Ney was responsible for the undead soldiers, she speculated it was possible and asked if Yukina wanted some black tea and she complied. Noting how great it was, Gumillia agreed and laughed. The writer noted how differently she acted and Gumillia, brushing it off, stated Ney herself didn't have the magic power to revive the dead. Yukina then suggested that the wine glass or wine might have been special and Yukina shivered at the thought of it reanimating corpses. as Gumillia comforted her, she explained that her investigations into the undead soldier's bodies uncovered that they all died of the Goula disease. Connecting the dots, Yukina considered it was the vessel of sin, the "Glass of Conchita".

After Gumillia was called away by a servant, Liliane entered and noted how she hadn't fled with the war. Yukina commented that Lily was always in high spirits but she retorted she had lost her military job. The young writer then asked who was commanding Retasan and she stated it was Ney and Yukina expressed her surprise for escaping from Lucifenia to Beelzenia. After explaining how she left and beheaded the revived former Emperor as a gift for the current Emperor's protection, Yukina asked if she wanted some tea but Lily instead inquired about coffee and the child asked a maid to bring her some. Saying the coffee would be late, Liliane brushed it off and asked what Yukina planned to do. The child replied she planned to say in the country for a little while and Lily noted it was useless to leave anyway, revealing the Emperor planned to attack Retasan Fortress the next day.

Soon after, Duke Oruhari voiced his disapproval for Yukina leaving the city. Deciding to allow her to remain on the battlefield if he kept tabs on her, the Duke introduced her to Bruno, not knowing he was her former butler. The child took advantage of the situation and had Bruno collect information on the battle's progress while she stayed at a hotel in Rockbane. Since Germaine wasn't participating in the fighting, she tried several times to talk to her but gave up due to her drunken stupors. After Bruno reported what he learned, she thanked him and told him to continue investigating, paying him handsomely. Although the butler explained he occassionally worked an informant, given his skills, Yukina reiterated that she didn't expect to encounter him. Exspressing disbelief in his answer that it was fate, she half-joked that her father may have hired him to watch her and, earning Bruno's laughter. When she pressed if she was right or wrong, he half-answered it was both then left.

Traveling to the Rockbane bar to see Germaine, the writer was surprised to see Lily there as well and asked if they were acquaintances but Lily stated they only encountered each other at the Battle of Rollam during the revolution. Noting how exciting and dramatic it was to see former enemies drinking together, she took out her notepad and listened to their conversation. As Liliane continued to pressure Germaine for not fighting, Yukina politely interjected that even before the undead army invaded, Germaine was already a big help for Beelzenia. As their debate continued, Germaine angrily denied she began the revolution to avenge her father and Yukina again interrupted to confirm that her father was Leonhart Avadonia of the Three Heroes. Lily answered her and explained that Princess Riliane was assumed to have killed him. With their argument reaching a close, Yukina finished jotting down notes before Lily left. Three days later, Bruno reported how the deadlock between Beelzenia and Marlon was broken and Germaine, her fighting spirit rekindled, staged nightly raids to undermine the fortress' defenses.

Praeludium of Red
Yukina found Gumillia, who told her that she intended to pay Kyle Marlon a visit and had enlisted Germaine as her bodyguard. Yukina offered to tag along, being the daughter of the family that had close ties with Kyle.

With Gumillia and Germaine disguised as her attendants, Yukina visited Kyle at the Lucifenian Royal Palace. Kyle saw that Yukina had slipped away from her family but assumed that she had only done so to see the world. Kyle then showed Yukina his hand mirror, which was one of the Four Mirrors of Lucifenia, and proposed that Yukina should stay for the night. During the night, Kyle found out Germaine and realized that Yukina deceived him and ordered her arrest. Yukina and Gumillia escaped through a secret passage in Riliane's room. Tracking them, Kyle succumbed to the Demon of Pride and transformed into a six-winged beast. Fleeing into Held's Forest, Yukina witnessed the entire battle against Kyle.

Yukina's younger brother, Shaw, suddenly appeared, who apparently had gone off as well to search for Yukina. Feeling that Keel was worried sick, Yukina had to go back to her family. With Kyle, Gumillia, and Germaine, Yukina boarded a ship bound for Marlon and wriote in her notebook about her adventure.

Praefatio of Blue
During the trip to Marlon, Kyle's ship suddenly became under attack by pirates until they were fended off and killed by a giant octopus. Despite the danger, Yukina was quite fascinated by it. Arriving in Marlon, Yukina was afraid about what her parents would do to her since she had sneaked out without permission. However, Keel welcomed her back with tears of joy. Keel then invited Yukina's friends over to dinner.

The next morning, Yukina learned from Keel that Prim Marlon and the mage Abyss I.R. had been responsible for manipulating the events that transpired. Yukina apologised to Keel for sneaking away to find out the truth by herself. Keel told her that it's alright, and then told her that Ney and Elluka, who was thought to be dead, had been spotted in the Metropolis.

While Keel left to find Kyle, Yukina was visited by Elluka, who had a red cat on her shoulder. Gumillia, who had been staying over with Yukina, wishes to talk to Elluka and the two of them left the house. Feeling that something was not right, Yukina rushed over to Germaine and told her that there were three strange things:
 * 1) Elluka had called Yukina, "Keel's daughter". Elluka should've known who she is by that time.
 * 2) Elluka had called Gumillia, "Gumillia-chan". Elluka would not call her that.
 * 3) When Yukina offered Elluka black tea, she refused. However, Elluka actually liked black tea.

Germaine was skeptical but then a sharp noise was heard, Yukina and Germaine ran over to find Gumillia and Elluka locked in a battle. It turns out that "Elluka" was actually Abyss I.R.. After a brief struggle, the real Elluka (who was currently possessing Gumillia) regained her body back. Elluka then explained to Yukina why she had disappeared.

Yukina eavesdropped on a conversation between Kyle and Keel, and learned that Kyle intended to confront Prim Marlon once and for all. Yukina begged Kyle to let her come too because she didn't want him to go off alone. Kyle persuaded her to stay back, saying that it was important for her to live in order to convey her story. After sharing a tender moment, Yukina promised to wait for Kyle.

While searching for Mikina, who had mysteriously disappeared, Yukina traveled back to Lucifenia to pay her friend Clarith a visit. She met Germaine again on the way and Germaine decided to tag along with her. Arriving at the monastery, Yukina and Clarith happily reunited and Yukina asks Clarith if she could stay over for a while. Yukina also met Riliane, under her pseudonym "Rin". Yukina was curious about the fact that Germaine and "Rin" were shocked at the sight of each other so Clarith decided to let Yukina know the truth about Riliane.

Following Riliane's leads, Yukina went off to search for Mikina. As night fell, Yukina set off towards the beach and discovered Germaine and Mikina, only to find out that Abyss I.R. had possessed Mikina. Germaine then uncovered Abyss I.R.'s red cat, which was hiding in a cabin. As Germaine rushed after the cat, Mikina somehow managed to regain control of her body for a while and confessed to Yukina what she had done, just before Abyss I.R. silences her.

Abyss I.R. then used the Marlon Spoon to trap Yukina in a prison of blue fire. Anguished by her mother's confession and fearing the end, Yukina solemnly proclaimed that "her story is over". Suddenly, Allen Avadonia's spirit called upon her, comforting her and encouraging her to live in order to tell the whole world the truth. Yukina pleaded with Allen to help her. Allen tells Yukina that he couldn't, but he would let his sisters help.

Sure enough, Riliane appeared and attempted to steal the Marlon Spoon from Abyss I.R., forcing her to release Yukina from her fiery prison. Yukina then witnessed Allen manifesting alongside Germaine. In the end, Germaine managed to stab the cat and Abyss I.R. was defeated. Yukina rushed over to her collapsed mother, hoping that she was okay.

Later Life
Afterwards, Yukina continued writing, publishing multiple stories that gained popularity in her time. Sometime later, she reunited with Kyle and the two began to cohabitate in Lucifenia. Determined to fulfill her promise on the beach, Yukina continuously worked on her story about Riliane and the Seven Deadly Sins before finally finishing the work, titled "Daughter of Evil". Despite living with Kyle, the two never openly shared a marital relationship.

Legacy
By the time of her death, Yukina had written and published over a hundred different books and even more stories that had never been published. Her unpublished works would later be traded and sold on the market at high prices for collectors. Yukina's fame immortalized her in Evillious' history, known over four centuries later for her works as a novelist. Her most popular stories were compiled as the Freesis Fairytales, considered fiction. One of the fairytales, Daughter of Evil, reached widespread popularity during the time of Gallerian Marlon due to its change to historical events and inclusion of magic and elements of conspiracy.

Personality and Traits
Yukina was a curious and independent girl, enthusiastic about learning and discovering new things. As a child, she was very lonely due to her parent's attention to her little brother, Shaw, and often acted out as a result, trying to get attention from one the household servants to be her playmate. Early on, Yukina expressed an interest in reading and writing and later came to believe the power of the pen was greater than that of the sword. Although normally polite, Yukina sometimes spoke out rashly due to her beliefs.

Yukina was very humble and preferred to avoid using the weight her Freesis name carried, trying her best to avoid using it while abroad. Despite this, she had no qualms with using what she could to her benefit when necessary. As part of her curious personality, she enjoyed traveling to see different places and experience different climates and cultures. However, she was not entirely naive and willingly participated in shady dealings to achieve her goals. Because of her traumatic experience as child with the story of Vampiress Vanika and her undead, Yukina suffered coimetrophobia and was anxious of being in cemeteries, regardless of the time of day.

Skills and Abilities
"Ms. Yukina’s written stories are very interesting. For a nine year old to write such a story, she really is a genius!"

- Clarith

From an early age, Yukina had a love for writing stories and her parents built upon her talents when she was a child. By the time she turned 14, Yukina's early works already gained her mild popularity and her abilities made her famous in literary history. Like her father, Yukina was very perceptive and a capable investigator, although her abilities to gather information were partially due to the Freesis Firm's information network. While in Asmodean, Yukina learned swordplay but was not an extremely skilled practitioner.

Character Connections
Keel Freesis: Yukina's father. Yukina had a close relationship with her father and enjoyed spending time with him, having him read to her or showing him her latest written works. She was willing to disobey him if necessary, such as in going out on her quest to discover the truth, but worried over his reaction to her doing so and did not want him to worry.

Mikina Freesis: Yukina's mother. Yukina loved her mother deeply and was concerned by her later disappearance, traveling to Lucifenia to find her. She was horribly shocked and demoralized to discover the wrongdoings that Mikina had committed under Prim and Abyss I.R's influence, but the girl easily forgave her mother.

Shaw Freesis: Yukina's younger brother. Despite feeling frustrated by her parent's constant attention to Shaw, he and Yukina had a close relationship as siblings. This relationship is demonstrated as the latter was able to be persuaded by the former to return home, while Shaw had traveled all the way to Lucifenia to find her.

Clarith: Yukina's caretaker and later friend. Yukina became enamoured of Clarith's appearance and enjoyed spending time with her while writing or playing games, appreciating the company when her parents were unable to spend as much time with her. Yukina was noticeably upset when Clarith had to leave the Freesis' employ and would visit her in the monastery.

Germaine Avadonia: A traveling companion of Yukina. Yukina had a high opinion of Germaine's character, believing her a great hero for her role in the Lucifenian Revolution and appreciating her great swordsmanship. The two became close over the course of Yukina's quest and she was thankful for Germaine coming to her aid on multiple occasions.

Kyle Marlon: A friend of Yukina. Yukina and Kyle became friends as an extension of his friendship with her father, and the two became close over the course of her quest to find the truth. Yukina cared deeply for Kyle's well-being and wished to aid him with his endeavours, such as his confrontation of Prim. She enjoyed spending time with him, choosing to live together with him in Lucifenia after they were reunited.

Gumillia: A friend of Yukina's. Yukina enjoyed spending time with Gumillia when the latter temporarily lived in the Freesis mansion, although she had difficulty remembering her years later. Yukina was delighted to see Gumillia again in her travels and stayed with the girl for some time, curious about how she'd changed over the years.

Chartette Langley: Yukina's biggest fan. Yukina was appreciative of Chartette's tour of Beelzenia and looked to her swordsmanship for protection when threatened by Ney, the two becoming good acquaintances.

Liliane Mouchet: A woman that helped Yukina. Yukina was appreciative of Liliane's aid getting her through Retasan Fortress and the two became good friends over the days they spent together, Yukina running into her many times afterwards.

Conceptualization and Origin

 * Yukina's name is inspired by the name of her representative Vocaloid, Yuki, sharing the same four letters in its beginning.
 * Yukina's personal belief that the pen is mightier than the sword is a reference to Edward Bulwer-Lytton, a popular English writer who coined the phrase.
 * The Freesis Fairytales may be inspired by the Brothers Grimm's fairytales, reaching similar fame well beyond their lifetime.

Curiosities

 * Several songs by mothy are confirmed to be Freesis Fairytales; in The Daughter of Evil series, excerpts from the fairytales are placed at the beginning of several of the light novels.
