I've Turned Into A Fox Girl?



<Shaman POV> 

Right as I clashed swords with Tyso, a loud ding echoed in my head, followed by a system window appearing. In the brief moment that I was distracted, the hilt of a sword hit me directly on the forehead, knocking me back. 

I slid across the ground for a solid few seconds until I finally came to a stop.

"What happened?" Tyso appeared just in front of me with his hand out, reaching to help me up. 

"Sorry, I got a message from Elysia." Taking his hand while holding my forehead, I felt my head spin as I struggled not to fall over while getting up. Fortunately, Tyso was able to catch me and stabilise my footing. 

"Don't be sorry, I should be the one to apologise since I hit you so hard. I wasn't expecting you to lose concentration so suddenly." Tyso quickly placed his hand on my head and suddenly the pain vanished. 

"Thanks, is it alright if I check the message? It might be urgent." It was half a lie admittedly. If it was truly an emergency, Elysia would have used Lover's call. 

"Go ahead, we'll take a 10-minute break before continuing." Tyso gave his go-ahead and sat down on a rock at the edge of the arena. 

Now that I was free, I clicked on the pop-up and a screen I was very familiar with appeared. 

'Since when did the system gain proper text messaging software?' I instantly began to explore this new interface, which was a one-to-one replica of the one I used all the time back on earth. It even had emotes! 

'I can also have a profile? Feels like the system is just some kind of social media platform now.' I didn't know if this was Clara's doing, but this new chat UI is definitely an upgrade. 

'Maybe Clara activated it, but didn't test it out? Surely she would have come to me to consult about it. I can imagine her being extremely confused by all the different features this has.' After looking through everything the chat window had to offer, I got to reading Elysia's message. 

[Shamannnnn~ I made it safely to this underground city in which the entire population consists of Kitsune vampires. I do not know the extent of the city's military forces, but it seems my family is the only real threat here. However, from what I've learned, my interpretation of the whole thing is that this entire place is one massive sick cult. Anyway, on a more positive note, there is this really cute 13-year-old young maid here who I have officially adopted as my little sister.]

[Her name is Yumi, a regular human who was kidnapped and had her parents killed in exchange for her life… it reminded me of my younger self, so I hope to get her out and introduce her to a better life.]

'Despite being a crazy obsessed girlfriend, you are surprisingly sweet.' It made me smile to read that Elysia was caring for others. It was a step in the right direction and I can only hope she continues to help others. 

[With that out of the way, I have very important knowledge regarding Klaus the Pope. As you know Shaman, you found me just before I was sacrificed, and it turns out that was just one small piece of the puzzle. There are apparently more scattered around the continent and all of them together are meant to summon a tier 10 demon of some kind.] 

[I'm assuming this demon is not an ordinary one like Clara, but more of a killing machine meant to kill everyone in order to somehow revive his dead mistress. Wonder how I got this information? Plied it from the vampire that created my entire bloodline. Apparently she is currently entrapped by one of these circles which uses her as a power source.] 

'What the hell? This is huge… I'm going to have to tell Elaina right away about this.' There was no telling if this vampire was telling the truth, but since it is casually disclosing what might be the end of the world, it's at least worth looking into. Plus, this was Klaus who I can absolutely see going on a killing spree to achieve his goal. 

[That's all for now, but I have a question. The vampire proposed that I take her power by killing her, thereby also disrupting the Pope's plans, but I am not sure if I can trust her. She is definitely the one who created us Kitsune vampires and the power boost sounds tantalising, but I can't bring myself to do it. So I was wondering what you think I should do? I want to say yes, but I feel the consequences will be too great. Other than that, I love you Shaman~ please message me back soon (>w0)b]

I chuckled at the little text emote Elysia put at the end, but it made me wonder if she knew that there is a whole selection she can just choose from. 

'It's cuter though... Maybe I should start doing the same as well.' Looking at it again, it was much more unique than just regular faces, so why not adopt it as well? 

'This vampire does sound interesting, though. It is definitely hard to trust them. Then again for vampires who can live for an eternity, surely at some point there's little meaning left in life. She is also being kept imprisoned against her will, and it's not like that's a life worth living.' 

It was a tricky situation. Could they take a vampire's word at face value, or was it all some kind of elaborate trap to take over Elysia's body. 

'I'll need more information about the process before I can make a real judgement, but for now it doesn't seem she's in any immediate danger. What I'm most concerned about is the magic circle that contains the vampire. Need to make sure it isn't some kind of bait and switch.'

'For now, let's just tell Tyso the news, he will be able to tell Elaina quicker than I could.' 

"Hey Tyso!" I walked over to the edge of the arena, where he sat peacefully meditating. 

"Coming to cut your break short?" Tyso slightly lifted up his hat to make eye contact with me as well as grabbing his sword, ready to continue the training. 

"No I have just received word from Elysia about Klaus and some of his plans." This instantly piqued Tyso's interest, causing him to stand up and wait for what I had to say. 

"Apparently, he plans to summon a tier 10 demon on this continent by spreading a whole bunch of summoning circles all across the continent. I do not know their locations, but I can confirm they exist. I actually encountered one in the city of Victoria which is where I met Elysia." Dropping the news, Tyso fell into deep thought before speaking up. 

"Hmm, this is deeply concerning. If he plans to summon a demon from the depths of hell then there are very few to pick from, and they are all world-ending beings." I can imagine it is a lot to take in, but I was just glad that he didn't question the validity of the news. 

"I do not know too much more other than that he plans to use this as a way to revive his dead mistress." 

"Thank you, I will pass this on to Elaina right away and we will most likely investigate the one you saw in Victoria." Tyso held a couple of fingers to his head, seemingly sending a telepathic message. 

"Alright, Elaina said to come with me, she wants to talk about it in more detail." Tyso held out his hand so he could take us to her and so I grabbed it, vanishing on the spot.

<The Captial> 

In a lavish bedroom that resided in the tallest building of the capital, Klaus was lying in bed convulsing in pain. He squirmed and shook back and forth, trying to bear the consequences of letting a god take over his body. 

The fight with Elaina and Freja caused severe repercussions for his body, leaving him bedridden for at least a few months. 

"That bitch Freja! She had to ruin my plan to kill the demon queen just so she could prove to the other leaders that she was against me. I can't deny she has been useful, but damn is she irritating!" Klaus seethed with rage, as expected from someone who always gets his way. Even his admiral scheme ended up as a flop. All those who were not aligned with him were meant to die, yet some still escaped. 

The fight was a total bust, Still, at least Freja knew not to go too far. If she didn't miss that last attack, Klaus wouldn't have made it out alive.

"Sounds like you are enjoying yourself." Lucifer's voice echoed inside of Klaus' head with an amused mocking tone. 

"Shut up, you useless god! How much longer do I need to wait before I can release Lilith!" Hearing the same old complaints once again Lucifer let out a long exasperated sigh. 

"She will be released soon, but only when you are able to summon the calamity Apollyon onto this damn world." Lucifer's voice was filled with a hint of frustration, as there had been many delays. 

"You know I am close, but I'm still missing the demon queen's blo- Arghh Fuck!!." Klaus curled up in pain as it felt like his veins were on fire. 

"Tch, well hurry. The biggest threat to your plan is steadily working to reach their full potential. There is no telling when she will reach tier 10. Zeus lost connection with the subject so we can no longer monitor her progress." Lucifer informed Klaus of the news which he couldn't care less about. 

"Whatever, I can handle it." Klaus still tried to act tough despite looking like a complete mess. 

"I'll send Persephone to heal you, so you better not disappoint me again, Klaus." Lucifer's presence vanished, leaving Klaus in excruciating pain. 

"I swear, once Litith is back, I will hunt every single god down for daring to ever look down on me!"
