I've Turned Into A Fox Girl?

The group appeared in front of the dungeon and the guards in front of the door moved out of the way while also pulling on a lever that started to open the door. The guards bowed and Himeko began to walk through the door.

Shaman, Elysia and Wolfy followed her and they started to descend stairs just like in Cholden. After a short walk they found themselves in what looked like a massive graveyard which was the size of a few football fields put together with a few churches scattered around. The entire place was also lit by what looked like a moon making it rather dark but enough light to see around you just fine. One noticeable detail was a massive cathedral which was at the end of the room. Shaman assumed that the cathedral is the entry to the next floor and is where the skeleton knight is located.

"Alright in each of these churches except the large cathedral at the back will have Terikin in them and I want you to hunt as many as you can. I will be right behind you basically yelling instructions at you about what you should be doing while you fight." Himeko explained her outline on what she wanted to do.

Shaman and Elysia nodded and with confirmation Himeko pointed to the first church.

"Well what are you waiting for? We have some hunting to do."

Shaman, Elysia and Wolfy then began to run to the first church going through all the random graves.

'This is odd, it's like the entire floor is covered in graves that have been placed randomly.' Shaman thought that there was something more to the graves but was unable to determine what it was.

However Shaman's suspicions were confirmed when a purple ghost-like monster shot up from one of the graves they walked over.

"Holy shit." Shaman got jump scared and jumped away, Elysia and Wolfy halted their movements and turned around.

Suddenly a bunch of Terikin started to emerge from the graves surrounding them. They could be seen slowly dragging themselves up like zombies and only half of their body was visible.

Himeko smirked as she knew that this was going to happen and wanted to see what they would do in a surprise situation and also guide them on what they should do.

The tattoo on Shaman's hand appeared and soon after Kotetsu appeared in Shaman's hand. Elysia Pulled out her bow and Wolfy went into the shadows ready to fight and luckily to how dark the place is Wolfy would have no issues moving around.

"Let's not waste time and get killing." Shaman wanted to get the numbers down as much as she could, this was also the go sign for Elysia and Wolfy to start attacking.

Shaman dashed back to the Terikan that appeared beneath her feet first as it was the closest one.

It was still halfway in the ground as it seemed like it was stuck in the ground so Shaman Slashed down on its head to see if a normal attack would work.

Shaman's sword collided with the head and what Shaman thought would just go straight through instead got stuck like she was trying to cut through a dense piece of slime. Shaman tried to pull away but was unable to and the Terikin started to scream.

"ARHHHHHHH." A screeching ghostly howl rang through the ears of everyone nearby causing Shaman to wince in pain a little but she did not let go of her sword.

Shaman quickly realized that Physical attack won't kill it so she activated the ice infinity and froze the Terikin through the ice on the blade. Shaman then smashed the Terikin and saw that there was a glowing purple core that was broken alongside it.

'So it is the core that is keeping them alive.' This was a key detail and could save them a lot of mana when fighting this many.

"Elysia, Wolfy, aim for the purple core inside their bodies, that's their weak point!" Shaman shouted this as it could especially help Elysia as she only uses elemental arrows which in the long run can suck up a lot of mana.

Himeko was so far impressed by what Shaman has done so far and has not had the need to point out anything. The only thing she could pick up on was technique. She found Shaman's style of fighting very free which is good as it is flexible but it's hard to master and without a foundation of a style it can lead to sloppy movement.

'I think I will get instructor Stein to teach her the Ado foundation of katana's.' Himeko had also used this exercise as a way to find which teacher would suit them the best.

'I wish I could train them individually but sadly I only know how to use a greatsword.' Himeko wanted to train them personally but she is unable to cover all bases.

Elysia nodded and began to look for the core Shaman mentioned. Due to the purple body it was hard to notice but Elysia was able to locate a darker patch in the stomach.

Elysia took aim using a low cost fire arrow to test what kind of power she would need. Elysia fired the shot as it sped through the air and pierced the core with ease leaving a hole in the Terikin. The Terikin slowly faded away till only the purple core was left.

Elysia was happy as she could really feel the upgraded fire that she had acquired.

Elysia then went on to snipe a few more Terikin before they got out of the ground.

"Hahaha~." Elysia began to laugh a little as she was enjoying herself a little too much.

Wolfy, who had been in the shadows, heard what he needed to aim for and began to approach some of the emerging Terikin.

Wolfy got behind one and planned to use his shadow sword but instead he wanted to try something else out. Wolfy knew he was going to get the scythe as a weapon and wanted to try it using his shadows.

Wolfy appeared behind the Terikin that was still pulling themselves up and began to imagine the scythe. It was a success as the scythe appeared in his mouth just like the sword. Wolfy was able to manipulate so that it could bend and turn to his will.

Wolfy turned his head and slashed upwards with the scythe piercing the core.

'Hmm this doesn't feel right, let's try using it another way.' Wolfy was not comfortable with using a scythe with his mouth and planned to try a different way.

'Since I can move the shadow itself, why don't I make the blade come from the ground.' Wolfy liked this idea and so he moved on to the next one quickly.

Wolfy began to control the Shadows and made sure to have control of the ones under the ghost. Once he was in range and was in control he manifested the scythe to shoot from the ground. This time it provided much better results as a shadow blade came from the ground piercing through the body of the Terikin killing it.

'Now that was cool.' Wolfy liked what he just did and wanted to experiment a little more.

At this point most of the Terikin were out of the ground and all of them screeched at the same time causing everyone to halt their movements again. This time Shaman had to cover her ears as it was rather unbearable. Elysia and Wolfy also did the same thing and they waited for it to be over.

Once the screaming was finished they were able to concentrate again but this distraction allowed the Terikin to group up and begin to all attack at once. There were about 50 Terikin that formed a circle around the group and floated just above the ground ready to fly at them.

Shaman's first thought was about the quest and thought it was rather easy.

'I wonder why it is such a low number?' Shaman did not have time to think about it as Himeko shouted from the sky.

"All of you Group up and defend each other's backs!" Himeko spoke up for the first time and They all followed her orders straight away.

"Well Elysia I hope you can shoot enough arrows." Shaman and Elysia leaned up against each other and exchanged a few words.

"Fuhuhu~ I hope you can slash quickly enough to kill them." Elysia drawed her bow and already began the attack due to her range advantage.

"Tch." Shaman clicked her tongue as she would have to use a bit of mana to use a long range skill strong enough to kill one and was rather jealous of Elysia's current advantage.

"Wolfy will you be okay?" Shaman was the most worried about him as he was more of a single target kind of class.

'I have an idea and I think you will like it very much.' Wolfy spoke with confidence as he had an idea for a new skill and could not wait to try it out.

"I can't wait, let's get to killing shall we." Shaman smiled and dashed forward as the Terikin were now close enough for Shaman to be able to deal with while also protecting Elysia and Wolfy.

The fight against the horde had begun and Himeko could not wait to see them in action again.
