I've Turned Into A Fox Girl?

123 Looming threat above

The tension was high between Clara and Shaman even though they had good intentions the trust between them still had not fully developed. Shaman also felt her relationship with Elysia was none of Clara's business. Doubly so considering that, with Clara being Shaman's only other female friend, she would surely earn Elysia's wrath for her interference.

Shaman did not want to imagine a scenario where Elysia lashes out at Clara, creating more conflict between them. Clara on the other hand wanted to help but at the same time understood why Shaman was not willing to let her help.

'Will Shaman be able to do anything on her own?' This question plagued Clara's mind as Shaman is the target of the obsession and as such would find it very hard to influence Elysia's mind.

Shaman let out a sigh as there was no point in staying upset or frustrated about the situation.

"Anyway, I will talk with her while we travel to the fox realm." Since they had a bit of travel ahead of them Shaman figured to use that time to have a proper chat with Elysia.

"The fox realm? Will I even be able to enter it seeing as they only let beastmen enter freely?" Clara never got permission from Himeko to leave the city, so of course she never even attempted to enter the Fox realm, and thus wasn't sure about its rules.

"Well you are not classed as a human anymore, I'm more worried about your position in demon society." Shaman was worried since demons seemed to be a rather rare race and from her knowledge are only allowed to stay in their territory.

"Oh, that shouldn't be an issue, I can change the colour of my horns, which is one of the main indicators of what kind of demon we are, but I don't know if other territories can tell the difference." Clara then changed the colour of her horns to purple to match her eyes.

"Now I should be seen as a low ranking noble in demon society." The new purple horns suited Clare and gave a more noble look to her.

Shaman stared at the horns, becoming suspicious of Clara's identity again. This couldn't possibly be an innate skill, as if all demons could do it, how could their horn colour hold any social meaning.

"Hmmm? Did you want to touch them?" Clara could read on Shaman's face that she was suspicious of Clara, but Clara had no way to explain it without revealing her identity.

"Oh? May I?" Shaman understood Clara was trying to change the subject, but she definitely was not going to turn down touching a demon's horns.

"Sure." Clara leaned forward a little so that Shaman would be able to properly reach her horns.

Although Clara was being considerate, seeing her having to lean forward for Shaman was an unfortunate reminder of her shortcomings. Still, this did not deter her from touching the now purple horns on Clara's head.

Shaman reached out, lightly touching them, making sure she does not harm Clara.

'Oh wow, it's super smooth.' Shaman was fascinated by the horns. As someone who came from a humans only world, she still had the feeling of everything being unreal.

"It looks like you have to marry me now." Clara had a grin on her face waiting for Shaman's reaction.

Shaman took a moment to think about what Clara had just said before responding.

"Well, that was my plan anyway." Shaman moved her hand under Clara's chin, but upon realising what she was doing she quickly backed away.

'AHHHH, what the fuck am doing, what came over me?' Shaman was bright red and Clara was not faring any better as she had frozen on the spot.

'I- I…. what is this feeling?' Clara had not expected Shaman to react like that and it sent a new sensation through her body.

"I-I'm sorry about that, I have no idea what came over me." Shaman apologized as it was the only thing she could do.

"I-its okay, I- ummm kinda lik- no never mind let's just move on." Clara was too shy to admit anything even though her face said everything.

"I think so too." Shaman was of the same opinion and although knowing what Clara was about to say, she did not want to make it any more awkward.

Shaman and Clara split apart from each other to do their own thing while waiting for Elysia to wake up.

Shaman had gone and spent all of the attribute points she had accumulated.

[Attributes]

Attribute points: 1060 -> 0

Vitality: 400 -> 600

Agility: 500 -> 650

Intelligence: 560 -> 710

Strength: 550 -> 750

Dexterity: 500 -> 710

Defense: 450 -> 600

Once again the feeling of using all her attribute points was bliss as the surge of energy and power flowed through her.

While Shaman was enjoying the feeling of levelling up, Clara had been playing around with the system and putting a lot of her belongings in the inventory that was provided.

'This is so convenient, I no longer have to deal with such a tiny storage ring anymore.' Clara looked at the storage ring on her hand and could not help but be baffled by the size difference.

Clara was celebrating for all the uses of the system since it made life easier and thanks to the guidance of Rea she was able to understand anything she didn't quite get.

A few hours had passed and the boredom was high amongst the 2 girls while they waited for Elysia.

To pass their time the peacefully sleeping Wolfy had been attacked by the pats of both Clara and Shaman. Wolfy was confused about what was going on but was weakened by the wonderful patting he was getting.

"Pffhaha he is so cute~" Shaman grinned while patting Wolfy and watching his failed attempts to resist.

"His silver fur is so soft, how the hell does he keep it like that?" Clara was rather jealous of how soft his hair was and couldn't stop patting it.

"No idea but I am not complaining." Shaman had no idea how Wolfy was able to keep such hygienic standards but it was something she did not need to know.

"Should we change his name to Silver instead of just Wolfy since he is more of a vicious wolf than a cub now?" Clara was reminded how basic his name was and figured it might be good to change it.

"Hmmm, it's really up to him if he likes the name, but I have to agree I like it and it represents all the silver fur he has been getting as he gets stronger." Shaman figured the silver fur that was showing was due to him being a moon wolf and the distinct features of that race will be shining through soon.

"Let me think about it, I am not entirely sure if I can let go of Wolfy but Silver does sound a lot cooler." The pats had eased off and Wolfy was able to somewhat think straight.

"That's understandable, take as much time as you need." Shaman then gave one last pat before standing. Clara had stayed next to Wolfy, Changing her position to slowly pat along his back.

Shaman looked over to Elysia and could see that she was finally waking up from her evolution.

"Finally." Shaman walked over to Elysia's egg and waited for her to break free.

High above the sky of Ebonscale stood a woman and a man that wore the same clothes as the pope but in black.

A system window could be seen in front of him presenting him with a list. The man scrolled it as if looking for something.

"Ah, here it is." The man pulled back his hoodie revealing his blonde hair and red blood eyes.

The pope clicked on his system, then quickly yanked on the chain he had in his hand pulling Himeko closer.

"Ah~"

"Tch what a dirty dog, anyway let's get this damned cursed object and little demon girl." An enormous spear made of pure black shadows was created above him and was aimed directly at the tower in the middle.

"I don't sense anyone in the building." The pope then launched the spear at light speed devouring the tower in a matter of seconds. Instead of the tower getting blasted to pieces, it was absorbed into the black shadows cleanly erasing it from existence.

"Come along now trash you have an item to give me." The pope began to descend to the ground with Himeko as the screams of civilians and the shouting of guards could slowly be heard in the background.

'Hmmm I don't sense the demon girl anywhere in the city, did Himeko plan for this.' The pope was using his mana to scan the entire city but was unable to find the demon girl.

"Tch." The pope clicked his tongue and out of frustration kicked Himeko in the face. However, Himeko did not wince or complain, but instead looked like she was rather enjoying it.

"Show me where the cursed item is so we can get out of here before people arrive." The pope put the hood over his head. Like a sniffer dog, Himeko began leading the way to the cursed object.

With the tower gone, only its empty base remained, in which Himeko quickly found the stairs leading down below ground level.

The Pope and Himeko climbed deep underground until finally reaching a door that required a special insignia to open.

"What good little puppy you are." The pope reached into his inventory and pulled out Himeko's insignia and slotted it into the door.

The door slowly opened to reveal a small spinning ball that had red glowing engravings.

"HAHAHA, this dark aura, it's the exact thing I need, one down and 5 more to go." The pope started to become ecstatic.

"The Eden of control is now in my hands, it's unfortunate that I cannot forcefully control people quickly with the item but this will definitely make the process much easier." A sinister grin appeared on the pope as he looked at Himeko who was already under his control. But with the added cursed object there was very little chance that Himeko may ever be free of his control.

'Good job my love, remember this is all for the greater good of this world and never forget your mission.'
