I've Turned Into A Fox Girl?



<Elysia POV> 

"At least you weren't lying that you were sealed." Stepping off the insignia, I walked down the rocky path towards the red magic circle that illuminated the entire room. Alice sat in the middle with chains tying her to the ground, making it impossible for her to make any movements except for her head. 

"Why would I? I just want to be free of these chains and the world." It felt weird to hear Alice's voice outside of my head. It certainly proved they were the same person as dungeon Alice. Although their voices were slightly different, it was close enough for me.

"I can still read your thoughts and my protection is still in effect, so don't do that weird thing. We may be underground, but Alucard does have access to this room." Alice was right. I may be in a hidden place, but I can't get complacent yet.

"I understand. Is the magic circle safe to walk on or am I going to have to kill you from here?" I stood right before the glowing circle, not daring to touch it just in case there was some kind of trap waiting for me. 

"I don't know, but I recommend not getting any closer. Plus I don't want to ruin your impression of my beautiful self." Alice's pride shone through, but little did she know I could see her clearly. Unlike her dungeon counterpart, Alice had blood-red hair and was much more voluptuous, which I could easily see because the clothes she had were all ripped from years of wear. 

"Geh, did you have to think that? Let me stay pretty in your mind!" Alice clearly didn't want to be seen in such a rough state, but that was too late. However, I couldn't deny this kind of scene was hot. If Shaman was in this kind of situation I would definitely take advantage of it. 

"Stop it with the lewd thoughts! I, the great Alice, will not be taken advantage of by my offspring!" 

*Sigh* "I'm not interested in you Alice. My one and only is Shaman so don't get it twisted. Also, you look great for someone who has been locked away for a hundred years so I have no idea what you're talking about." The state of her clothes may have made her seem haggard, but a more careful look revealed she looked completely fine with no damage or dirt on her body. 

"R-really? I haven't seen what I looked like so I thought I was just a complete mess." Alice tried to look at herself, but her own body proportions blocked her view, not to mention the inability to turn her body wasn't helping things. 

"Yes. Can't you see through my eyes anyway?" I'm almost certain Alice had the ability to see what I was seeing, so I don't see why she wasn't making use of it now. 

Corpses were able to easily pass through, but for someone alive like Alice, there haven't been any successful cases. 

"Thank you. Even if you fail, I'll be happy knowing you tried." Alice smiled, showing a feeling of contentment on her face. 

"You've provided more help than I ever expected, so I should be thanking you instead Alice." We had been stalling for long enough so I summoned my brand-new bow and loaded it with a fire arrow. My hands shook as I considered Alice a friend, but this is what I must do to free her and help the world. 

I also took this chance while I prepared my shot to take a photo of the magic circle with the system, as someone back in the demon lands might be able to decode it.

"Hmph, of course, I, the great Alice, would help her own kin… Now put me to rest and save the other Alice for me." 

"Wait!!!" Right before I could let go of the string, a sudden yell came from the elevator. Spinning around on my feet, I pointed my bow at the source, ready to kill whoever it was. To my surprise, it was the dungeon version of Alice.

"Alice!?" Me and the restrained Alice spoke in unison, confused as to how the hell she made it down here. 

"Please don't kill her! I heard everything!" As she ran down the rocky path, she almost tripped over, but she caught herself and slid on her feet until she was right in front of me.

"What is your intention here? Answer me before I shoot an arrow into your head!" It was an empty threat, as this Alice was no doubt much stronger than I was, but I still wanted to be in control of the situation. 

"T-tell me, what is going on? How is that person me? What is this dungeon thing you mentioned and… what was that about taking me out of it?" Alice looked at me with confusing and pleading eyes that wanted answers. 

'I can use this to my advantage. This might be my chance to convince her to leave.' It was poor timing, but this very well could be a blessing in disguise. I hadn't inherited Alice's power yet, but it might make it easier to convince Alice if she speaks to her older self. 

*Sigh* "I knew I should have been more careful. The one person I couldn't sense was myself since we are technically one and the same." 

"W-woah you do sound like me." Seeing the two Alices talk with each other felt awkward, as they had the same voice. If I wasn't seeing the two versions of Alice facing each other in front of me, I would have though Alice was talking to herself. 

"I'll explain everything so sit tight, Elysia." Lowering my bow, I stepped to the side letting the younger Alice talk to her older self. I didn't know what kind of outcome would come from this, but I hope it wasn't a mistake for young Alice to come down here.
