I've Turned Into A Fox Girl?

*GROWLS* Multiple wolves growled from behind the bush making it hard to tell how many there were.

7 wolves exited from behind the bush with one looking like an older wolf while the remaining 6 looked almost identical.

'Okay calm down Shaman, surely you can fight them off, This is my first day in this world and it will not be the last.' Shaman was beginning to panic as the number of wolves scared her.

'I should use my inspect skill on old looking wolf and see if I'm about to die or not' Shaman activated the skill inspect on the old wolf and a system screen appeared in front of her.

[Wild wolf leader]

[Tier 1 Leader]

[HP: 200/200]

[Leader of wolves, will have 3 to 7 wolves accompany it at all times and will not attack unless it threatened or attacked first]

'Great, well at least it's still tier 1 and not some higher tier that only the experienced adventurers could handle.'However, Shaman still looked around to see if there was a way to escape if needed, but before she could find anything, 5 of the wolves started to dash towards her.

'Oh, Shit' Not having much time to think Shaman dashed forward head-on and jumped into the air. This confused the wolves for a second not knowing what to do.

As Shaman landed on the ground she slashed down on one of the wolves that halted their movements, decapitating it.

[Monster kills 4/5]

'Did not realize how sharp this blade is, sorry system for being angry at you, this is some quality weaponry.' Shaman expected the blade to not be that good of quality , but despite the poor grade, it was high quality.

Not wanting to waste any more time Shaman dashed towards the next wolf, however, as Shaman went to slash at it, the wolf caught the blade with its teeth.

'Oh come on, I just chopped through a neck and now teeth are stopping me.' Shaman pulled back dodging the other 3 wolves that took the opportunity to pounce at her all crashed into each other.

'I guess they are not low-tier beasts for nothing.' Shaman found the scenario rather amusing seeing the wolves crash into each other and it dawned on her that they are the lowest of the tiers.

Shaman taking advantage of the situation quickly killed 2 of the wolves by slashing them across the neck.

[Quest complete, 5 beats have been killed]

[rewards have been distributed]

The same sensation from before flowed through Shaman, rejuvenating some of her energy.

'That's nice getting a free energy boost, better allocate my stats now before they start their next attack.

[new skill Sword dash acquired]

'!!!!' Shaman was shocked to see the skill appear and did not know what to think.

'Wait my stats, no time to look at the skill.' Shaman quickly dismissed the menu and allocated her newly acquired 10 attribute points

Vitality: 10

Agility: 12 -> 16

Intelligence:15

Strength: 10 -> 13

Dexterity: 8

Defense: 5 -> 8

'Now with 4 wolves left, it's time to finish them off.' Shaman had now completely lost the feeling of dying to the wolves and was prepared to take them head-on. However, the wolves had retreated and the older-looking one had come forward like it was going to protect them.

Shaman instantly felt bad as it showed clear emotion within the wolves, but she needed to survive so there was no time to feel bad for them.

'At least it's fair and I can test out my new skill, I should be able to one-shot it but I don't know how strong the old wolf is.' Shaman prepared to use the skill as an opening move to gauge how effective the skill was and to test it out.

Shaman activated sword dash and her body instinctively perform the skill dashing forward while slashing towards the wolf leader. The wolf leader leapt backwards but was still hit by the slash leaving a deep cut across its face.

This had enraged the wolf as its eyes began to glow slightly red showing it entered a different state.

"Tch" Shaman clicks her tongue.

'Of course, it's not that easy.' The now enraged wolf dash forward putting Shaman on the defensive, having to block the Jaw and being pushed back by the wolf's advances.

"Just because I gave you a slight cut doesn't mean you can get your spit on my face." Shaman got annoyed by the saliva that came from the mouth of the wolf and so she pushed back when she blocked another one of its jaw attacks causing it to fall over on its back.

Shaman activated sword dash once again to go for the kill. Slashing down Shaman beheaded the leader wolf in one quick motion.

The other 3 wolves seeing their leader dead ran away and knew they had no hope of surviving if they were to fight.

Shaman feeling exhausted walked over to a tree sitting on the ground while checking the drops she got.

[wolf cores x3 (tier 1)]

[leader wolf core x1 (tier 2)]

[wolf claws x2 (tier 1)]

[wolf egg x1 (tier 1)]

'I CAN HAVE A PET WOLF.' Shaman's eyes lit up upon reading the last of the drops as ti looked like she will be able to have a cute little wolf companion.

'Wait it's an egg, aren't wolves mammals?'

[When getting an egg of an animal no matter their type they will become your companion and are in an egg just for protection and nutrients since they have no mother]

[Wolf egg]

[Hatches in 23:57:24]

[Warning: will be forcibly brought out of inventory 10 mins before it hatches]

'YES!! I have something to look forward to, but I will say using 2 sword dashes is exhausting.' Shaman did not feel like moving at all and was satisfied with what she has accomplished so far.

*

Shaman took a 10 min break with no issues but before she could stand up Shaman felt same pressure from before getting to the adventurers guild.

Sweat instantly started to roll down her face and Shaman quickly rolled to the side dodging a blade that was now deeply embedded within the tree where her head was.

"Damn." An annoyed voice came from the bushes ahead.

Shaman immediately stood up and drew her sword ready for whoever it was behind the bush. Adrenaline rushed through her and her heart rate increased rapidly since she just survived a near-death experience. Without the natural instincts she had seemingly gotten from her new body, she was glad that she was able to avoid danger with it and live for at least another 5 seconds.

'That was way too close, should I run or try to fight and will I even be able to kill him, he seemed like someone experienced.' contemplating on what to do, a new quest appears.

[Side quest: kill or survive]

[Kill the man that has threatened your life]

[Rewards]

3 level ups

intermediate box x1

New skill

[Escape him]

[Rewards]

nothing

'I should probably run as I feel the rewards are telling me that the quest is a lot harder and it's even giving me an option to run. I also don't think I can handle killing a person.' Shaman shook a little at the thought as taking a person's life was not something she thought she had to do.

During these thoughts, the man charged at Shaman with 2 daggers.

The man had a hood and mask covering his face, he also had rags for clothes making him look homeless.

Shaman without a choice to run dashed to the side parrying one of the daggers. However, the man was quicker and slashed her arm with the other dagger, leaving a deep cut on her forearm.

"Hey, little girl, why don't you stand still for me."

"Shut up!!"

'Crap this guy is strong and I can't tank hits otherwise I might die here' Shaman gritted her teeth trying to not focus on the pain.

The man spun around throwing one of the daggers at Shaman and she barely blocked it skimming her cheek.

Shaman, who was distracted by the dagger, the man took the opening to dash in front of her. Shaman brought her focus back and activated sword dash which caught the hooded man off guard.

The man was unable to block the attack and Shaman was able to leave a deep cut across the man's chest.

"ARHH!!" The man screamed in pain from the deep cut on his chest.

Not letting this opportunity go, Shaman was blinded by the will to survive and stabbed the man through the chest killing him.

Shaman pulled out the sword from the man's chest and was trembling. Shaman fell to her knees as it sunk in she had just killed someone.

"Why." Shaman's voice was shaky.

'Why was I targeted, I wanted to avoid killing.' Shaman felt frustrated as the thought had occurred to her she might need to kill, but couldn't understand why so soon.

The man had fallen in front of Shaman and the mask he wore had fallen down revealing his face.

To her shock, it was one of the knights that had taken the person who tried to stab Shaman. Making her even more confused, this had also pushed Shaman to cry as the faith that she was going to put into the world was already crumbling.

'Was this all planned and is that knight I spoke to in this as well.' Questions plagued Shaman's mind thinking that things were conveniently placed out to lead her here just to kill and for what reason?

After grieving for a while Shaman finally came back to reality and wiped her tears away and saw the quest complete pop-up.

'I really need to toughen up, I knew this day would come but not so soon, I don't even want to touch the body but I might take that pouch for my profits.' Shaman slowly reaches out, still trembling a little and the pouch of coins was transferred to her inventory.

Shaman considered taking the man's equipment, but she felt sick looking at it so she decided to leave it.

Shaman then turned to leave and pulled out her map to make her way back to the city. Shaman decided to slowly walk as she still is not done coping with murdering someone and just wanted to fall over and sleep it away.
