I've Turned Into A Fox Girl?

– Present time –

<Shaman POV>

"So yeah, that's how we got together." Silver looked around nervously, unsure of the kind of response I would give.

Personally, I was glaring at the necklace Silver had given Elanor, which explains why there was a sudden dent in our gold. With the counter always on my stat screen, I felt like it had gone down suddenly and I never knew why or if I was just crazy.

"Since when did my son have so much game... Clara, please tell me I was that romantic as well." However, what shocked me the most was just how well Silver managed to handle the date. It made me wonder how the hell did Clara end up falling for me? I knew Elysia was just crazy, so I couldn't really get a good answer out of her.

"U-umm… I wouldn't say romantic, but I can say you were very… forward when we first met. I'm honestly surprised Elysia didn't try to murder me with the unintentional flirting you did." Clara tried to sound like she was laying it gently, but it struck me right in the heart.

"Urghhhh, did my romantic genesis skip me or something?" I planted my face on the table feeling absolutely inadequate.

"W-well if it weren't for the fact that you are two-timing I would have found you endearing, Shaman. I just don't swing that way usually." Surprisingly, Elanor spoke up, but I don't know if she contributed to my dread or eased it.

"How am I meant to feel when that is coming from my son's girlfriend. I feel like I should be mad, but at the same time grateful." I raised my head, looking Elanor directly in the eyes, trying to decide.

"D-does it matter? Let's just move on. She is my girlfriend and that's that." Silver tried to defuse the situation, but a part of me wanted to keep going. No, I need to put this episode of motherly crisis behind me. I should be trying to make sure things will work out for them. freёwebnovel.com

'I still haven't actually learned the kind of life-spans demi-humans have, so I should ask if life-span will be an issue since Elves live at least for 1000 years in this world.'

"Just one last thing that has plagued my mind this entire time. What are you going to do about the gap in lifespan?"

"Hmm? That really isn't an issue. Since I'm a pure demi-human from your blood, I can live for at least 500 years, and with Elan-"

"Shh, don't say my real age!" As Silver was giving me an answer, Elanor quickly interrupted him right before he said how old Elanor was.

'Wait, is she actually a lot older than 22? There is no way she is like 220 or something.'

"Hold on, how long will I live for? I thought maybe 200, but I thought we just had regular human life-spans." I figured we had a slightly increased one, but with Silver being able to go to 500, surely he doesn't outlive me so easily.

"Wait, you don't know? I thought after merging you would know." Clara looked at me confused, as if I should know, but it's something I never questioned.

"I believe royal kitsune like yourself can live for up to 1000 years like elves. Although unlike us elves, kitsune don't physically age, so you tend to die before reaching that point." Elanor had the answer, which I wasn't expecting.

"Same with us demons, we can live a really long time, but life gets too boring so we pass it on or we are just too reckless." Clara co-confirmed this, as her race also lived for that long.

"Is that why you are okay with being in this throuple with Elysia? We live for so long that it just spices things up." I was having a culture shock of my life and to live for so long, I don't know what the hell I'll do with all this time.

'Maybe that explains why there is such a slow progression of power in this world. They have so much time that there is no need to rush… I guess I could retire early, but then I have at least like 950 years left to spend.'

'Oh my god, this is so fucked up.' Once I had a perspective of just how much time I had left, it almost felt insignificant what I was doing now.

"It looks like the wires in her brain have fired."

"She is from another world and she was human before, so it probably would come as a shock to have your life-span increase by 10 times."

While I was processing this new information, the rest of them were talking amongst themselves about me.

<Few days later>

After finding out that my son has a girlfriend, we eventually moved onto what happened with Clara, but she was dragged out by Elaina. I of course tried to probe her at night, but Clara wanted to show off in battle when she gets the chance.

However, one thing for sure was that Clara with a dragon tail was a great addition but also a curse. Unlike me and Elysia's soft tail, it can be a little annoying to have scales brush up against you while you sleep. Thankfully, Clara could use some mana to hide it, but like having all of my fox tails out, it is much more comfortable to have it out.

As for what today's plans were, Elaina decided to send us out to free my parents. I wasn't sure if I was ready for such a fight, but I had reached close enough to Tier 10 that Elaina was confident. Realistically, I was in the tier 10 range, but I still hadn't reached my max level yet.

The four of us all gathered at the edge of the castle, looking in the direction we would be heading, waiting for Elaina's go signal.

"Any news from Elysia?" While we waited, Clara asked about Elysia. I didn't want to think about it, but for some reason, a few months ago, Elysia stopped sending text messages. It still said she read them and I could view her status screen, but I didn't know how she was doing mentally.

I was tempted to use the lover's call, but I just needed to trust that Elysia would be okay. I had informed her of what we were doing today, but she had yet to read the message. It is early in the morning so maybe she is just asleep.

"No, as per usual... The system says she's fine, but I'm really starting to doubt it." I couldn't deny that a part of me was stressed out and wanted to head to this underground city just to make sure she was okay.

"We have the system under our control, right? So it isn't like it can lie to us." Silver made a great point, which was reassuring, but I needed to see Elysia with my own eyes.

"Perhaps once she reads it, she will use that teleportation skill you guys have." Elanor made a pretty good guess, as that was the agreed upon way for Elysia to return. However, I don't know if it would be a good idea for her to return in the middle of the mission.

"Maybe, we will just have to see." It wasn't our focus, but as soon as we are finished with Freja and we save my parents, I am going straight for Elyisa.

"Alright, everyone, you are free to go. Remember what we discussed yesterday and avoid fighting if you can. Do not be fooled by that bitch of a wolf, she is very resourceful, as you may know. Now I wish you luck on your mission and do not hesitate to break the SOS stones. With that said, go!" Elaina's voice suddenly echoed within our heads, speaking to us telepathically.

It was, of course one way, so we couldn't argue.

"No time to waste, let's get going."

<Elysia POV>

"Elysiaaaa when are we going to leave this place? I thought after killing everyone, we would be done." Alice floated around the study, completely bored out of her mind.

"Soon,I'm not finished yet." I kept concentrating on the image I had in my mind, trying to recreate a magic circle.

"You said that last week! Even the maids have run out of things to do." I just decided to ignore Alice because I needed to focus.

"ELYSIA!"

"SHUT UP, WILL YOU?! Once I finish, we will be able to leave this place, but I can't when you pester me nonstop like a fucking baby, or would you rather be stuck here forever?" I glared at Alice in the sky and two blood spikes emerged from the floor, only stopping a few inches away from her throat.

Alice froze in the air, petrified and didn't dare speak another word, so I retracted the blood spikes.

'Soon Shaman… I'll break this barrier and finally get to see you my beloved, just a little bit longer.'
