I've Turned Into A Fox Girl?

Shaman who had just observed the dream finds herself in the floating mindspace she usually is in when looking through princess Shaman's memories.

[Soooo, how was it?]

"Is that who I am going to meet if I head into the Freya forest? Also who the hell names a forest after themselves, they must be narcissistic or something?" Shaman had many questions about Freja and it seemed like Rea purposely showed her this specific memory to prepare her for what's to come.

[fufu~ it was the one memory that you really needed to see. There are others, but they are about you studying your innate element which you should only look into after you evolve.]

"Oh yeah i was wondering why I couldn't use that dust element but it looks like it was behind a memory wall." Shaman always wondered if her race had any innate skills and was a little disappointed when she didn't seem to have any.

[Yes most things will come back to you at a later date. You just need to continue on your journey] Rea's presence then suddenly vanishes causing Shaman to be brought back to reality.

Shaman quickly shot up from where she was laying down as being suddenly pulled from inside her mind was unnerving.

Wolfy and Elysia both turned to Shaman as they weren't expecting her to wake up so soon and so suddenly.

'Urggg that was not a nice feeling, anyway it looks like my attack worked seeing that no fighting is going on.' Shaman looked around, noticing that the room had no boss and everyone was sitting around except Elysia who was busy cooking.

"AHHH, Sham you're awake, I would hug you right now but the kitchen needs attending." Elysia wanted to run up to Shaman but right now her hands were tied to the kitchen. Shaman giggled and waved at Elysia. She was glad Elysia had her priorities straight since she could smell the food which made her feel hungry.

"Hello Mama." Wolfy kept his distance as he was rather embarrassed to call Shaman mama as he felt it wasn't formal enough. Shaman was a little shocked to hear the change but nonetheless found it cute and liked it either way.

"Hello there my cute son." Shaman could tell Wolfy was embarrassed and could not help but make it worse for Wolfy. Wolfy hearing the words my cute son caused him to turn around and put his paws on his ears. Shaman laughed alongside Elysia who was also within earshot of the conversation.

Shaman looked over to Clara to see that she was lost in thought and by her face seemed like she was troubled by something. Shaman debated whether she should go talk to Clara or not as she understood Clara was going through a lot of changes and may need time to process everything.

<Clara POV>

'Dammit ShaSha is awake, I thought I would have more time to think about it.' Clara was panicking a little as now she felt obligated to come up with an answer to whether or not she should stay.

'AHHHHHHH, this is killing me, my heart is telling me to go with them but my mind is worried it could be too dangerous.'

'I really want to stay, they were nothing but nice and even now they respect my space, they are the kind of people I want to be around.' Clara was now trying to persuade herself into staying as she had a strong desire to remain with them.

'Considering both Shaman and Elysia's families likely hate each other, if those two can still get along then surely I can open up to them as well. I don't have to do it now, maybe a little later once I get to know them a bit better.' Clara was starting to slowly convince herself but was going to need a lot more time to confirm her thoughts and feelings.

'Maybe I should start off with a random topic, we are resting so it doesn't hurt to make some small talk, that way at least I can see how they will treat me.' Clara had a few ideas in mind to start a conversation so she could at least begin to know them properly.

'Hopefully I get more time to think, I am not ready for this at all.' Clara's internal panic continued. Luckily for her, Shaman could tell she needed time and didn't approach her.

<Shaman POV>

'I will wait till after some food to talk to Clara, for now let's check on my status and see if I can evolve.'

Shaman Shiroi

[Race: 4 tailed Fox Girl]

[Level: 100+ 10]

[Attributes]

Unspent points: 560 [A/N: 400 points from quest]

Vitality: 400 +30

'YESSS, level 100, I can finally evolve to tier 5.' Shaman was excited to see that she reached 100 after a long month of killing terikins and even surpassed it after killing the boss.

'Maybe after I evolve I will talk to Clara, at least by then she will have had more time to think things out.' Shaman figured it wouldn't hurt to let Clara have some more time.

Elysia who was in her small portable kitchen had finally finished making food and brought out bowls for everyone. Elysia dropped Clara's bowl next to her as she was still stuck in thought and seemingly did not notice Elysia drop by.

Elysia gave Wolfy a small bowl of meat and he immediately got to work, devouring the whole thing in a few seconds. Elysia was a little shocked by the speed but was also not surprised as Wolfy was always a glutton when it came to meat.

Elysia then went over to Shaman and sat down next to her while also handing over Shaman's bowl.

Elysia had prepared what looked like ramen and Shaman's eyes lit up with excitement as it was one of her favorites. Elysia felt proud seeing the excitement on Shaman's face, knowing she made the right choice when choosing the meal.

Shaman ate rather quickly like Wolfy since she had not eaten since leaving for the dungeon.

"Gahhhh, that was so good, Elysia, you need to cook this more often." Shaman was feeling blissful and satisfied now regretting that she ate it so quickly.

"Pffhaha, sure." Elysia found Shaman's reaction cute and on the inside Elysia was fangirling.

'AHHHH, Sham is sooo CUUTTEE!'

"Well anyway I am going to evolve using the 100 million Terikin cores I swear we have and once I'm done you can evolve." Shaman was keen on evolving, seeing as the dungeon was practically empty. The only monsters left were outside, making it rather safe to stay down below.

"Oh okay that's fine but are you sure you want to do it now?" Elysia was thinking about Clara seeing them as their process of getting to the next tier is unconventional and would be rather weird.

[I will grant her a system like you, but at the moment she needs time to think about what she wants to do] Shaman told Elysia through Rea not to ruin the surprise for Clara who could be listening although unlikely seeing as she hasn't touched her food yet, instead gazing off into space.

"Ohhhh, good idea, aight I will wait for you to finish then before I also evolve." Elysia understood and was all for the idea.

"Well don't cause any problems while I'm sleeping." Shaman said this half jokingly but was also a little worried Elysia might do something stupid.

"No need to worry, I will just hang out with Wolfy, maybe sleep as the fatigue is starting to catch up to me a little." Elysia felt like sleeping but also knew she had to somewhat keep an eye on Clara, just in case.

"Sweet, love you Elysia." Shaman then pressed yes to evolve and began her evolution to tier 5.

"Love you too." Elysia let out a sigh as she wanted to cuddle with Shaman but was unable to.

Elysia had finished her food and put the bowls away in the inventory for now to clean later. She then grabbed her tails and carefully inspected their red tips.

'The one thing I was afraid of happening and now it has become a reality.' Elysia patted her own tail while thinking about the journal that her mother left her with.

'Let's hope the Freya forest is a place we can actually settle down in for a while without being bothered by my relatives.' 3 of Elysia's tails disappeared and she looked over at Clara who had stood up and started walking over to Elysia.

Elysia instantly became cautious but looking at Clara's face Elysia could tell she was a little nervous which caused Elysia to drop her guard down a little.

"So, how did you and Shaman get together?" Clara asked a random question which threw Elysia off as it was completely unexpected.
