I've Turned Into A Fox Girl? - Chapter 100 [Bonus ] Himeko's Quest For Love

[A/N: The events in this chapter are not canon but just a bit of fun so don’t correlate this to the main story. So read this for enjoyment and don’t take it too seriously even if i make a plot hole just shhhhh, I know]

The morning sun rose to let light enter the room, Shaman and Elysia were currently snuggling up to each peacefully while the light slowly reached their bed.

Wolfy was at one end of the room enjoying the dog house he was given and performing his favourite activity, sleeping.

A small flame could be seen forming in the middle of the room till finally, it bursted out in a ball. The fire slowly went away to reveal a Himeko who was wearing an apron over what looked like red pyjamas that had small birds printed on them. She also held a pan and a ladle which in conclusion only means one thing.

*BANG* *BANG* *BANG* *BANG*

“Wakey, Wakey, time for breakfast.” Himeko banged the metal ladle and pan together causing Shaman and Elysia to shoot up awake with a small scream thinking they were getting attacked. Wolfy had covered his ears with his paws as he saw Himeko when he woke up and knew that they were not in immediate danger yet.

Shaman and Elysia both stood up on the bed hugging each other and quickly scanned the room. They spotted Himeko almost immediately and let out a sigh of relief but also pouted when looking at her.

“What the hell is with these rude awakenings, I’m gonna die of a heart attack before I die to Shaman giving me too much of a good time.” Elysia caused some eyebrows to raise as Shaman looked at her with embarrassment and wanted her to shut up. Himeko took a step back as she did not expect to hear that kind of response.

“What, I’m just being honest.” Elysia looked around confused as it was the truth and she had nothing to hide.

“JUST SHUT UP!” Shaman was bright red in the face and so she bonked Elysia causing her to fall back down on the bed.

Wolfy was giggling to himself as it was amusing to watch the scene unfold in front of him.

Himeko was slightly irritated as it reminded her of the deep hole in her heart. This deep hole represented the fact that she has never been able to score a relationship with anyone. It also caused her expression to change to one of someone who is about to explode.

“Breakfast. Now.” Himeko quickly left the room but shortly after she left the building started to shake a little and an explosion could be heard. Both Shaman and Elysia’s face paled as clearly Himeko was not happy with them.

However, Shaman was able to spot something out the window a black figure flying towards them.

“Oh shit.” Once Shaman realized that it was heading straight for them She quickly grabbed Elysia and jumped out of the way. Both Shaman and Elysia were on the ground together with Elysia being confused about what’s going on.

“Why did you pull me off the bed?” Elysia’s question would soon be answered as something flew through their window and crashed into their bed destroying it. Purple lightning could also be seen lingering around where the figure landed.

*cough* *cough*

Coughing could be heard from the now destroyed bed which made Shaman and Elysia even more worried as it was a person that flew through their window.

Taking the intuitive Shaman got up and went to help whoever crash-landed into their room.

“Clara?” Shaman was not sure as their face was completely black from soot but the similar attire of the black dress and purple gems embedded in it is what told her it was Clara.

“Holy. Fuck. Don’t use your lighting against an explosive Himeko, otherwise, you may get an explosion back as a gift.” Clara sat defeated as she explained what happened but what shocked Shaman the most was how the hell is she alive.

“How the hell are you alive?” Elysia asked what Shaman wanted to know as she was also shocked as well.

“Oh? Shaman and Elysia? Did I crash in your room?” Clara was finally aware of her surroundings and started to wipe all the soot that was covering her face.

“Yes but more importantly how are you alive?” Shaman curiosity was immeasurable and she needed answers.

“I braced myself with my lightning, I was able to slow myself down by attaching it to my surroundings. Sounds kind of contradictory as lightning is supposed to fast aha.” Clara scratched her head as it was rather hard to explain the full process.

Shaman could not believe it but she was glad either way that Clara was okay and was not overly hurt.

“Anyway, do you have a shower I could borrow? I’m kind of covered in black shit.” Clara stood letting the dust and broken parts of the bed fall off. Shaman sighed as this was a complete rollercoaster of a morning.

“Yes there is a bathroom next to the kitchen and you are welcome to use it, just make sure to not leave a trail.” Shaman gave directions and contemplated if they should have gone before Clara went.

“Thanks!” Clara smiled and gave them a thumbs-up before leaving to go take a shower to clean herself.

Wolfy had walked over to Shaman and Elysia to inform them of what they should be doing.

“I think we need to head downstairs otherwise we may become a flying Clara.” Wolfy’s words put Shaman and Elysia in a small panic as they quickly rushed to put some casual clothes on.

They got ready as quickly as they could and rushed downstairs to the main kitchen and sat down at the table.

They waited patiently for Himeko as she was currently cooking with the same pan and ladle. Shaman leaned over to Elysia to whisper something.

“Did Himeko teleport to where Clara was and throw her through our window to only come back and begin cooking?” Shaman was confused by how quick things were happening as it seemed like as soon as Himeko sent Clara flying she went straight to cooking.

“I guess you could say she had to quickly erupt in Clara’s face.” Elysia made an attempt at a joke but all it gained was an unimpressed look from Shaman.

“Not funny.” Shaman shook her head and leaned on the beach in her chair.

“What?!?! I thought it was funny.” Elysia was chuckling a little at her own joke causing Shaman to facepalm. However, things would be cut short as Himeko marched out of the kitchen with breakfast in hand.

They were given pancakes which was a surprise to Shaman as it was the food she was quite familiar with and did not expect it to exist in this world.

‘I keep telling myself it’s an alternate world but I can’t help feeling surprised every time something is oddly similar.’ Shaman’s expectations as she has read many fantasy novels has somewhat warped her perception of what things will be like.

Himeko sat down and placed the pancakes in front of Elysia and Shaman while giving Wolfy some meat.

They began to dig in but the first bite they took they instantly started to choke. Both Shaman and Elysia jumped out of their chairs coughing and spitting out the pancake they had just eaten.

“What *cough* the fuck *cough* did you put in it, tasted like vinegar.” Shaman was struggling as she always hated vinegar and having it feel like she ate pure vinegar could not help almost vomit.

“Well, that was for making me jealous and don’t worry that is just the first pancake, the rest are fine.” Himeko smiled as she watched the 2 girls suffer.

Elysia on the other hand was not having it and so she picked up the chair and threw it at Himeko. The chair headed straight for Himeko’s face but sadly it was futile as Himeko caught the chair with ease and placed it down next to her.

“Don’t get too hasty now. I will reward you if you help me.” Himeko had put her hands together and waited for their response.

“What do you want?” Shaman wanted this over with as the taste still lingered in her mouth.

“I am glad you are on board, I want you to help me find a boyfriend.” Himeko got straight to the point causing both Shaman and Elysia to stare blankly at her, even Wolfy who was usually too invested in his meat had to stop and lookup.

“You want us to help you?” Elysia could not comprehend this as literally they have no experience and this was with boys which made it even harder.

“Yes.”

“Well we do not have much experience with this, I don’t know how we are meant to help.” Shaman thought back to her high school days where she heard gossip about boys but since she was rather quiet she never really engaged in dating.

“Doesn’t matter, I just need you to help me scout out one.” Himeko declared what she wanted them to do which made Shaman and Elysia’s job easier.

Clara had walked in when Himeko declared this but was more interested in the pancakes on the table. She walked up to the table and began to reach out for one to take a bite.

When she entered all everyone could do was watch as she approached the pancakes and slowly took a bite. Everyone wanted to stop her but the urge to see her suffer was greater so they waited.

Everyone watched as Clara began to eat the pancake. Clara took a massive bite but as soon as she bit into it, the vinegar invaded her mouth causing her to throw the pancake. Clara had thrown the pancake so fast that she even used her lighting to throw it harder.

The pancake flew at high speeds right at Himeko’s face and due to the high speed, she was unable to dodge it. Himeko also had not seen it coming so all she could do was sit there and take the pancake to the face.

Shaman, Elysia and Wolfy all started dying laughing at the reaction of Clara and at Himeko who had a vinegar pancake on her face.

“HAHAHA OMG, CLARA, I CAN’T.” Shaman was on her knees laughing as her reaction was priceless. Elysia had also joined laughing on the floor holding her stomach.

Himeko had just sat there as she had a slightly burnt vinegar pancake on her face and could not believe what was happening.

Clara on the other hand was coughing like crazy trying her best to get rid of the lingering taste.

“WHO THE FUCK MADE THESE!!!” Clara screamed out as she needed answers and wanted to kill whoever made them.

This caused the room to quickly go silent as a fight might happen between Clara and Himeko.

“Ahem.” Himeko had cleared her throat and the pancake on her face had fallen on the table. Clara turned around and saw Himeko sitting there with her legs crossed staring at her with a friendly smile.

Clara’s angry face instantly stiffened as Himeko’s face was the sign of danger and if she went any further she may get another trip through the sky. Clara had also knelt on the floor as she also realized where the thrown pancake landed.

Shaman and Elysia also followed Clara’s actions as they were laughing at her and if they continued they may also join the trip to the sky with Clara.

Himeko stood up and walked in front of the girls that were kneeling she was glad that they realized what they had done.

“Good, now that you are here Clara you can also join the girls in their mission today.” Himeko had a smirk as Clara had already done this before but it turned out horrible since all she would bring back were snobs that only wanted her wealth.

Clara paled a little as she did not expect she would be being dragged along with the girls as the last time she did a personal request for Himeko she wasn’t able to move for a week since she did such a horrible job.

“You are going out in the city and finding a suitable boyfriend for me by the time the sun falls, do you understand?” Himeko stood in the middle of them waiting for an answer.

They all nodded as cold sweat started to go down their face since Himeko let out some of her aura.

“Now be a bunch of good girls and go out there for me or I might prepare you for something worse.” Himeko clicked her fingers kicking the girls and Wolfy out of the tower with her flames. They each find themselves kneeling at the front door once the flames subsided.

Everyone gasped for air as they did not even realize they held their breath for so long.

​ “Dammit, she is no fun.” Clara was the first to speak as she was very fond of annoying people but Himeko was someone who if you do one thing wrong you set off a nuclear explosion.

“You can say that again.” Shaman had always wanted to bug Himeko but there was always that air of danger if she ever did.

“Well, I guess we should get a boyfriend for Himeko then.” Elysia wanted to get this over with as the sooner they find one the quicker they can get rid of the stress.

“How are we going to even find a suitable guy?” Wolfy was rather worried as it seemed like there was no guy in the world who would be able to handle her.

“We just have to try.” Clara stood up with confidence as now she had a team to find the right man, unlike last time.

Shaman and Elysia looked up to her in hope as Clara was the only one who knew Himeko really well.

“Let us head to the city. It should be about the time people start heading out.” Clara looked towards the sun and was able to guess the time.

“Why is it that people only go out at certain times?” Shaman had noticed this before as it was dead silent when they entered.

“Oh? That’s because there is a curfew and unless it is urgent you should stay inside. It’s mainly due to the recent tension with the church and makes my work easier so don’t worry about it.” Clara made a brief explanation of what was going on which sounded reasonable.

“That explains why it was so quiet but I still find it odd.” Shaman still felt like there was more to it but she did not want to pry.

“As she said, don’t worry about it, it’s not our business.” Elysia did not want to get involved as it sounded like a headache and this was a human territory problem, not theirs.

“Good point, well Clara, got any hotspots to visit.” Shaman shared the same feelings with Elysia.

Clara nodded at Shaman’s question and pointed in a direction.

“Well let us be off then.” Clara took charge as she knew the city like the back of her hand. The rest followed her in search of a suitable man.

**

“Hey, would you be interested in going on a date with Himeko Ado?” Clara was asking people who were walking down the street.

“You mean the Himeko Ado.” The man’s face paled a little at the thought of going on a date with Himeko.

“Yep.” Clara responded in a cheerful tone but after she confirmed it the man started to sweat and was looking for a way out.

“What’s wrong sir?” Clara was confused but she had gotten this reaction many times already and did not know why.

“I’m sorry I can not go.” The man quickly bowed and started to run away from Clara

*sigh* Clara let out a sigh as this was the 23rd person to run away.

“Why don’t people want to date her?” Clara could not wrap her head around it.

Shaman and Elysia on the other hand were laughing as they still found the reaction funny.

“I think it is because no one will be able to withstand her presence let alone strength.” Shaman quickly stopped her laughter and figured it had to do with her overbearing presence and unless you become a strong adventurer, you would not be able to survive.

“I guess you are right but they can at least give it a shot can’t they.” Clara was sure that they did not need to be strong, if anything it would be better if it was someone weak as it would allow Himeko to take full care of them without having to worry.

**

“Hey Clara, where is Elysia?” Shaman looked around as they were currently going through a food court of sorts.

“I thought she was next to you?” Clara was not paying attention as she was more focused on finding a suitable partner.

“Wolfy?” Shaman looked at Wolfy who was dozing off but quickly shook awake when his name was called out.

“Huh?” Wolfy looked at Shaman with confusion wondering what was happening.

“Oh no.” Shaman did not need to ask Wolfy to know Elysia had gone wandering off.

‘Shit now that I’m aware of it, my anxiety is coming back.’ Shaman could feel the gripping feeling in her heart and began to stress a little.

Clara could see that Shaman was a little distressed and went to Shaman’s side.

“Hey? Are you alright?” Clara was not aware of Shaman’s trauma and if she were separated from Elysia she would begin to have a panic attack and breakdown.

“We need to find Elysia otherwise I am going to break down.” Shaman grabbed ahold of Clara’s arm which calmed her down a little.

Clara had blushed a little as this was a rather new experience for her as she never really had contact with people other than for work or requests by Himeko.

“Okay let’s go.” Clara shook her head to rid herself of this feeling and started to backtrack. She did not ask any questions about what was happening with Shaman and just let her hold on as they walked.

*

They had been walking down the street for an hour with no signs of Elysia and Shaman was getting more stressed by the minute. Her grip on Clara was tighter as it was the only thing keeping her from breaking down.

Wolfy had also started to search on his own to make things faster but they still had no luck in finding her.

However, they did not have to wait much longer as an explosion could be heard behind them.

Flames erupted from a restaurant and yelling could be heard.

“HOW DARE YOU PUT CHILI’S IN MY FOOD, I SPECIFICALLY ASKED FOR NONE!!!” Elysia’s voice rang out as the restaurant was being set ablaze and part of the building destroyed.

Shaman hearing her voice quickly sprinted to the explosion. Clara and Wolfy followed Shaman, also worried about what was going on.

Shaman arrived and she could see Elysia standing on a table yelling at a bunch of staff members of the restaurant.

“HOW CAN YOU FUCK UP SO BADLY, THIS IS FOOD WE ARE TALKING ABOUT AND EACH DISH MUST BE CAREFULLY MADE TO THE CUSTOMER’S NEEDS.” Elysia was scolding the chiefs for their mistakes with some of them almost crying.

Shaman was shocked at what she was seeing and saw Elysia’s golden eyes glow with a slight red.

“Elysia!” Shaman did not care either way and jumped into her hugging her from behind.

“Huh? Shaman, what are you doing here.” Elysia was wondering why Shaman was here as she only planned to quickly visit a restaurant to try out some food.

“You idiot, I almost had a breakdown.” Shaman’s eyes started to tear up as she looked up to Elysia.

“Oh shit, I forgot about that, I just smelled the food here and could not help and investigate.” Elysia let out a weak laugh but their reunion was interrupted as Clara appeared behind Elysia and smacked her in the back of the head with her hand.

Shaman was now supporting Elysia as the smack from Clara had almost knocked her out.

“Sorry for the inconvenience. I will get this black-haired fox to help you fix your restaurant.” Clara was speaking to the staff and was also punishing Elysia.

“What?” Elysia regained her balance and heard what Clara said.

“You are going to help these lovely staff members clean the store the best you can.” Clara smiled as she was furious at what Elysia had done. What Elysia did not know was the restaurant she destroyed was actually her favourite one.

Elysia could see that she had no other choice as to if Clara got any answer other than a yes a hit to the back of the head will not be the only thing she will get.

“Yes.” Elysia resigned to Clara’s will as it was her fault and there was no reasonable way to get out of it.

**

The group were once again roaming the city looking for a partner after they cleaned the store but no one has yet to accept the offer𝑅êạd new chapt𝒆rs on no/v/e/l𝒃in(.)com

Shaman looked at where the sun was and when she did she started to panic a little as they were running out of time.

Shaman had also looked at Elysia as the delay was a cause of Elysia’s actions

“What?” Elysia was confused why she was being stared at. Shaman took a deep breath as she remembered how on their trip around the city they lost Elysia.

“If it wasn’t for you getting lost and causing a mess for a few hours just because you wanted to ‘sample’ the Ebonscale delicacies we may have been a bit more efficient!” Despite saying samples Elysia had gone to almost every restaurant they went past and had a full meal each time so she could get inspiration for her future meals.

What ended up happening instead was Elysia getting lost in the city and because she accidentally ordered a meal that was too spicy, she ended up destroying the joint because it was too hot for her and she got mad at the chiefs.

“Yes, and because we destroyed it we had to help fix it.” Veins could be seen popping out of Clara’s head as she was reminded why they are running out of time and not only that Elysia destroyed her favourite restaurant.

“And you said. “we will have enough time, pleaseeee help me, Shaman.” I should’ve said NO!” Shaman was regretting helping Elysia halfway through the cleaning and wished she just continued her search with Clara but in the end, they ended up helping.

“I’m sorry.” Elysia was looking at the floor and slowly started to eat the kebabs she had brought.

“ENOUGH!” Clara shouted as there was no time arguing with each other and they needed to hurry.

**

It was night time and they had returned to the tower without anyone, their heads were low as they entered and saw Himeko sitting in the middle waiting.

“So how did it go?” Himeko was rather excited but when she saw the state of the girls her excitement went away.

“We could not find you a date.” Clara was the first to speak up about their results which caused Shaman and Elysia to lower their heads even more. Wolfy was already on the floor waiting for the punishment although he did not do much and was not a part of it he was still going to be on the receiving end.

Himeko let out a sigh as she half expected this but thought with extra help she would be more successful this time.

“How about you go out by yourself, maybe if you talk to the people, maybe someone will actually want to date you and not run away from you.” Shaman still did not like how they had to go out for Himeko as this was her problem yet they were the ones that had to go find a date.

Clara looked back in dread as this was the exact same thing she said last time which had gotten her in a sorry state.

Himeko hearing the same words again burst out in flames causing everyone to pale and start to run for the door.

“Shit I should have just kept my mouth shut.” Shaman was having major regrets but before they could reach the door Himeko had exploded the first floor by smashing the ground with her foot. This had sent the group flying through the door and into the air while still on fire.

They all crashed, causing the destruction of some houses. But luckily they were able to break their fall so they would not die but in the end they still got injured.

Their entire bodies were sore from the landing and could hardly move from the position they were in.

“Okay, let’s not piss her off.” Shaman had learnt her lesson the very hard way and was not excited for the next few days.

The entire group was feeling regret as they now knew for next time to just keep their mouth shut otherwise they might become tomorrow night’s meal.
