I've Turned Into A Fox Girl? - Chapter 110 Elysia’s Family

The group was all together and Elysia was contemplating if she should also let Clara in on her origins.

‘She is going to be joining us anyway, so if anything Shaman can use her blessing a little earlier than expected.’ Elysia figured Clara would find out anyway so there was no use in hiding it.

“Woah Elysia, when did you start rocking a new colour, it honestly suits you.” Clara got a good look at Elysia and rather liked the red tips her hair had gotten.

“Aha thank you, but there is something important you should know about this certain colouring, I was just about to explain it to Shaman, but since we are all here, I will just tell everyone.” Elysia had also winked at Shaman to let her know that she was okay with it as she imagined Shaman was internally freaking out.

‘WHAT THE HELL, WHY DOES CLARA GET TO KNOW, EVEN THOUGH WE HAVE HARDLY KNOWN HER FOR A MONTH.’ Shaman was internally freaking out and felt a little jealous that Clara was going to know as well.

Shaman stared at Elysia with a little annoyance but Elysia ignored her knowing full well what she was thinking.

“Ohhh~ Please tell me.” Clara was too intrigued to notice Shaman’s annoyed look and waited patiently for Elysia to explain.

Elysia took a deep breath as she could feel the anxiety rise in her because was not sure how they were going to take the news.

“Before I begin, I do not associate with what I am about to tell you, as it’s rather something I wish wasn’t a part of me.” Elysia moved her tails in front of her so she could look at the red tips.

Shaman, Wolfy and Clara were paying close attention, seeing that the situation is going to be more than a bit of fur and eyes changing colour.

“Clara, you wouldn’t know this, but the colour of our tails signifies our social standing in fox society. For example, Shaman has black tipped fur which indicates she is nobility. It is hard to distinguish between the different families but that’s where names come into play.” Elysia’s brief overview caused Clara to look at Shaman as she was unaware that Shaman was of noble birth.

“Wait, why isn’t this common knowledge amongst everyone.” Shaman was rather confused as the fur patterns seemed obvious to her.

“Sham, you dumbass, remember that the fox realm is closed and they rarely contact other countries, let alone release information about their internal politics to outsiders.” Elysia almost yelled, but then she remembered that Shaman was rather ignorant of the world.

“Sham? Where did that come from, and you know even after reading all those books it really didn’t help with understanding this world.” Shaman was thrown back a little by the nickname but was not against it.

“Oops, I didn’t mean to call you that yet, but yes you are right, those books gave us more of a headache than actual knowledge.” Elysia held her head remembering the pain of absorbing that information.

Clara giggled a little as she knew most of the books that are in the library are just old fairy tales with vague explanations and couldn’t believe they spent their time there.

“Ahem, anyway, My point is, I am from a certain family in the fox realm and my black hair with the red tips represents a branch of that family. My red eyes are where it becomes problematic, it shows that I’m from the main family line.” Elysia’s words became a little shaky but she continued on.

“I do not know much of what my family has done. All I know is that my parents tried to escape it and e-ended up getting k-k-killed by my relatives. I only know this thanks to this small journal that I keep with me, which was written by my mother.” Elysia reached into her breasts pulling out a small journal.

‘Huh? Where the hell did she put that during sex?’ Shaman was rather confused on how Elysia was able to keep a small journal hidden but decided to let it slide because of how important it was to Elysia.

“In her journal, my mother talked about how they are the reason why the different races almost became extinct over a hundred years ago and that our family was supposedly wiped out by the current royal family. So that’s why Shaman’s family is in power as they were the ones to protect all fox kin as well as the other races of beastmen. So collectively they voted for that fox family to rule over all beastmen land, renaming those territories to the fox realm to commemorate the current royal family that has been in power since the massacre.” Elysia looked through the journal picking out points to explain what kind of family she originated from.

“There was a decree for any fox that had red tipped hair to be executed, and they had gotten most of the house, main and side branches alike. Only a few survived, keeping low and trying to rebuild the family in secret. I don’t know why my parents needed to escape, the journal only mentioned hiding me away when it was clear they were not going to make it. I was left all alone and didn’t know what to do. I distrusted both my relatives and the royal family, leaving me with no one to turn to” Elysia explained how she was too young at the time and did not have a proper understanding of her situation.

“Now this brings us to the present, Everybody thinks they are dead but from what my mother said, There are still a few members alive trying to revitalize the family. If they find out I’m alive, they are going to try to bring me back no matter the cost as I am a member from the main house, making me one of their most valuable assets. Although I do not know how they have been able to stay alive for this long, all I know is that their ideals haven’t changed and we must try to avoid them the best we can.” Elysia’s face was filled with worry, concerned about her future and what would happen if she was actually caught.

“There was also one last message in the journal from my mother. She told me “if you ever get the traits of the family, you need to make sure your remaining relatives never find you. Otherwise they will take you back and I don’t want to imagine what will happen to you.” Then the journal ends.” Elysia’s eyes threatened to tear up, but she refused to cry, holding back her tears as best she could.

Elysia closed the journal and put it away, as it was the last thing she had of her mother and looking at it any more would make her cry.

Shaman had no words and all she could do was go up and give Elysia a hug. Shaman also needed time to think as now there was the threat of another group coming after them.

‘Why the hell does everyone want our tails, can’t I just get strong peacefully without needing all this drama.’ Shaman complained mentally as everything was getting more dangerous as they leveled up.

Clara had also sat in silence as she thought about what Elysia had said. Wolfy wished he could hug Elysia but all he could do was rub his head against her leg.

‘Why did such an innocent girl get pulled into such a fucked up situation.’ Clara could not see Elysia being a part of such a ruthless family and felt a sense of duty to help the girls.

“T-thank you Shaman, I will tell you in more detail what happened with my parents but right now I dont think it’s a good time as we still haven’t cleared the dungeon.” Elysia realized that they hadn’t gotten the quest rewards, meaning that they still had more to clear.

“Oh shit you’re right, we really should get going then. Also it’s okay I will always be here to listen when you’re ready Elysia” Shaman understood why Elysia was so hesitant and was willing to be patient if Elysia needed more time before she told more of her story.

“FINALLY, I can show off.” Clara was excited to hear they were finally moving on.

“Pfffhahaha, Let’s get going, I want to kill something.” Elysia was eager so she could take her mind off her circumstance.

“Let’s hope this boss isn’t too hard for us.” Shaman felt the mood rise and was happy to see that Elysia was back to her normal self.

“Well uhh where do we go now though?” Wolfy asked the obvious question but the group genuinely didn’t know. Shaman and Elysia looked at Clara as she had been in the dungeon before.

“Don’t look at me I haven’t gotten this far, Himeko didn’t allow me to go further.” Clara put her hands up and answered quickly.ALL new 𝒄hapters 𝒐n n𝒐v(𝒆)lbin(.)com

Shaman and Elysia sighed as now they had to find the boss in a labyrinth-like crypt.
