I've Turned Into A Fox Girl?

The group had been exploring the dungeon for over 30 minutes, going through the endless hallways trying to find the boss room. They had ended up in the same hall multiple times as if they were continuously going in circles. The entrance to the crypt had also been passed by many times and the more the group walked the more confused they got.

Currently they were in the middle of the hall where Elysia had fought the skeleton knight, trying to think of ways to get to the boss in the labyrinth they found themselves in.

"AHHH, this is so frustrating." Clara was having it the worst as she was getting impatient and wanted to fight something already.

"You can say that again." Shaman rubbed her forehead, trying to think of a way but it seemed like it was a loop no matter how they tried to explore the hallways.

"Should we just try blowing up the place?" Elysia figured it would be easier to destroy the place and force their way to the boss.

"Honestly that sounds like the best idea we got." Shaman was not against this idea as any damage in the dungeons would revert once they left and even if not, they were leaving the city anyway.

"Well if that's the case I'll go first." Clara's pent up frustration was finally exploding and she found the idea of destroying the place a fun way to vent her anger. Clara slammed the ground as hard as she could with her foot causing the hall to shake from it.

However the rumbling didn't stop and kept going longer than expected.

"Uhhh, Clara, what did you do?" The shaking hadn't stopped and Shaman was a little concerned for what was about to happen.

The shakes grew more violent and the floor started to break apart.

"I didn't mean for this kind of destruction." Clara didn't expect the whole place to start falling apart, which was not a part of her demolition plan.

"Shit we need to move." Shaman realised that the floor started to cave in.

But before the group could react, the floor shattered like glass below them and they began to fall.

The group saw a massive open space below them with an imposing throne at its end. The edges of the room were adorned with old rusted weapons and armour highlighting the outline of the room.

Due to them falling from such a great height they had a brief moment where they could examine the room before hitting the ground.

On the throne was what caught everyone's attention as a huge set of black armour sat on top of the throne. The same purple mist could be seen extending out of the armour and going into the walls.

The group were approaching the ground quickly and needed to stop themselves from crashing into it.

Clara was next to Wolfy so she was able to grab a hold of him and use her whip blades to reduce their speed by using it like a grapple hook, making their landing easy. Shaman was rather impressed with Clara's way of using her weapon and did not expect it.

However Shaman forgot she was falling for a moment but she quickly got back to not dying by gravity.

Shaman grabbed Elysia and held her around the waist. Elysia was a little embarrassed and was half expecting a princess carry.

Shaman shot her wind towards the ground, pushing away from it. This slowed their speed significantly, giving them more time to react. Shaman then used some of the falling rubble to conjure ice and create a slide under their feet. Shaman slid on the ice slide she was creating, with Elysia now in a princess carry. This allowed Shaman and Elysia to safely get to the ground.

Once they were close to the ground Shaman dropped off of the ice slide and landed in the middle of the room. Clara, using the holes in the wall to hook her whip blades, climbed down the wall with ease. Clara jumped off the wall landing next to Shaman and Elysia with Wolfy in hand. Clara put down Wolfy and stood next to Shaman waiting on what to do next. Wolfy however was a little dizzy as he felt like he went on a rollercoaster ride and needed a moment to let the dizziness calm down.

"Jeez you jumped far." Shaman was a little shocked by how far Clara was able to jump as the room was the size of a football field making the walls rather far from the middle.

"Well my whip blades have a lot of different uses hehe~." Clara felt proud of her whip blade proficiency as she has spent countless days practicing.

'This just makes me want to get lighting as well, I know earth has its uses and is an underrated element but like everything else sounds so much cooler.' Shaman complained mentally as there were so many elements she wanted to learn but had to pick and choose which to learn.

[Shaman, I hope you know you can't learn every element as you need a fundamental understanding on how it works.] Rea had just talked for the first time in a while which surprised Shaman a little.

'I guessed that much but I still want to learn space magic or even time if I can.' Shaman began to get ambitious with what she could learn which caused Rea to laugh.

[Pfffhahaha good luck with that, your lucky you're from another world otherwise it would be impossible, unless you were innately attuned with the time element, which is like 1 in a trillion]

'STILL POSSIBLE.' Shaman still held hope for overpowered magic as already having 4 elements wasn't enough.

[Anyway, Elysia looks like she is going to die of embarrassment and the dungeon boss is going to wake up soon, so stay alert, Rea out!]

Shaman looked at Elysia whose face was completely red of embarrassment.

'AHHHHH I can't believe I am being carried by Shaman like a princess, I could die happy.' Elysia was very giddy and happy as one of her many fantasies was coming true.

This didn't last long as Shaman dropped Elysia on the ground causing her to snap out of her embarrassment. Clara couldn't help but chuckle at Elysia as the drastic change in her expressions was amusing.

"OI! What was that for!" Elysia did not appreciate this treatment and when she saw Shaman's smug face, she knew she was being toyed with.

"Grrr." Elysia growled at Shaman as she knew if she said anything else, Shaman was going to turn her words against her.

"Aww how cute but sadly as much as I would like to play I think the dungeon boss is now waking up." Shaman's face went from playful to serious as she looked up at the husk of armour.

Everyone began to look at the armour to see what Shaman was talking about and indeed the boss seemed to be awakening. Elysia got up from the ground and quickly pulled out her bow, everyone else had also followed her lead and took out their weapons readying for battle.

The purple mist that was coming out of the armour started to rush back inside it, and from all across the room more mist started leaking out, heading straight towards the armour. As if collecting all the souls in one place the armour started filling up with purple mist, becoming one massive entity.

Shaman was very concerned on how to fight the boss as it was at least over 10 metres tall. With this massive armour coming to life, the group knew it was going to be a very destructive and hard battle.

A detail Shaman also noticed was that the mist began to turn into a flesh, creating a body for the armour. This prompted Shaman to use her inspect skill to see what kind of monster they are dealing with.

[Yollorn]

[Dungeon boss - the crypt under the cathedral]

[Tier 5 - leader]

[A monster that can change its form from mist to flesh, is able to break away parts of its body to mist and control puppets out of armour or skeletons.]

Everything had just clicked in Shaman's head, that all the monsters that were controlled by this purple mist were just an extension of the boss itself creating its own monsters for the dungeon.

The mist had finished turning into flesh and it began to move. First Yollorn reached behind the throne pulling out a gigantic sword about half its size and slammed it in front of him. A gust of wind was caused by this, making everyone cover their eyes from the dust that was being blown up.

The boss slouched over letting out a cold raspy breath and its eyes glowed a dark red, while glaring at the group as if analysing them.

It slowly got up from its throne, now completely dwarfing the group. This did not leave the group much hope as they wondered how the hell are they meant to fight something this big.
