(Altheria April 3 580 Imperial Calander time 12:50 p.m.)
(Rina POV)
What does he mean it will take 1 or 2 hours? It's been what half an hour and we are almost at the city.
{Rina, I think he thought we would walk in human form, not run-in wolf form.}
Oh, that makes sense.
{Rina, you need to transform now and put on the cloak you stored in the [Dimensional Storage].}
Do I hhaavvee tttooo.
{Yes, or do you want to get attacked by everyone?}
Fine, but I'm not wearing the hood.
{I never said you should.}
[Shapeshifting(Humanoid)]
*Flash*
*Fwm*
There, now to where everyone is standing.
(10 minutes later)
Ugh, this is so boring. Just standing here and moving forward when others move forward. There is nothing to do. You know anything I could do while I wait Snow?
{All I could think of is playing with magic, Kear, or messing around with skills}
I guess I'll call the youngest wolf.
"[Summon-youngest wolf]"(Rina)
"You called leader?"(?)
"How old are you?"(Rina)
"Me? I'm almost 7 months old."(?)
"Wait, you're almost as young as me!?"(Rina)
"Yes?"(?)
"Ok it's decided then you are going to be my friend now."(Rina)
"W-Wait leader I couldn't dare do such a thing as be an equal to you."(?)
"Too late it's already decided. What's your gender?"(Rina)
"ok. I'm a girl, leader."(?)
"Then I'll name you Kari."(Rina)
*Swish Swish*x2
"Thank you le-"(Kari)
"Rina, call me Rina. We're friends now so drop formalities."(Rina)
"Bu-(STARE), fine Rina."(Kari)
"What was that you're going to have to speak up."(Rina)
"rina"(Kari)
"What was that? Speak up."(Rina)
"I said fine Rina!!"(Kari)
"Ow, you didn't need to yell in my ears. That hurts you know. How would you like it if I yelled in your ears."(Rina)
*Ggrrr*
"Kari, are you ok? Why are you growling?"(Rina)
{Hey Rina, look around you.} Oh.
"Um, why are we being surrounded?"(Rina)
Hmm none of them feel like they could do much. At least that's what [Sense Presence] says. I could kill all of them with a single ice spell. Hell, even Kear could kill them.
"Hey, kid get away from that white wolf!"(?)
"*Head tilt* Why would I do that?"(Rina)
"Why. Because it's aggressive and just tried to attack you!"(?)
"Huh? Her attack me. Are you crazy or stupid?"(Rina)
"Kid were you not paying attention!?"(?)
"Kari, go back [Summon-subspace]. There now calm down. That was just one of my contracts. I got bored and summoned her and I teased her a bit too much, so she yelled at me."(Rina)
"Hold on. That would mean you can understand her. There are very few who can do that. Kid, can you change into a beast form?"(?)
"By beast form do you mean the form of a wolf or something?"(Rina)
"Yep."(?)
"Then yes I can."(Rina)
*Flash*
"Well, that's rare to see. You're the first Beastman I've met with the [Shapeshifting(Beast)] skill."(?)
It's actually [Shapeshifting(Humanoid)] but whatever.
*Flash*
Ugh still hate it.
"So can I go in?"(Rina)
"First put something on!"(?)
"Oh right."(Rina)
*Slash*
*Fwm*
"Better?"(Rina)
"Not really. You got anything else to wear?"(?)
"Nope. Just have this. I mean like an hour ago I didn't even have this."(Rina)
"Then where did you get that?"(?)
"An Elf adventurer gave it to me for the same reason as you. Because I was naked."(Rina)
"Was his name Wyn by chance?"(?)
"Yep."(Rina)
"Hmm, I'll let you in but go straight to the adventurer's guild."(?)
"Ok. But how do I get there?"(Rina)
"You just got to go straight to the city square then turn left. It's the building that says "Adventurer's guild" on it. Also, I need your name real quick."(?)
[point marked on map]
"Ok. Bye and my name is Rina."
----------------------------------------
(10 minutes later)
(? POV)
"Hey, you got some orders from the demon king herself. That is if you meet a Wolf Beastman girl of around the age of 12 that goes by the name Rina, you are to escort her to the castle gates."(?)
I went pale after hearing that. And went even paler at who said it. It was the captain of the knights in Altheria.
"Uuh, I might have already let her in."(?)
"You did what!? Do you know where she went?!"(Knight Captain)
"The Adventurer's Guild. Did she do something wrong?"(?)
"Fuck this is bad. You fool! You might have just doomed us all!"(Knight Captain)
"What? But she is just a harmless 12-year-old."(?)
"If that collar on her neck comes off, she will destroy this whole city killing everyone in it! That collar is sealing her memories and once it comes off, she will stop at nothing and kill and destroy till her target is dead! I have to get there before they take it off of her."(Knight Captain)
"She can't be that bad. She seems more behaved than my own younger siblings."(?)
----------------------------------------
(9 minutes earlier)
(Rina POV)
Oh, here it is. There seems to be a lot of people going in and out of the building. I guess I'll just follow the next person in.
Well, that was easy. They didn't even care I was behind them. Now, where do I go?
{I think you should go to the area that says information and registry. There doesn't seem to be many people over there.}
Ok.
*Step Step Step*
Ugh waiting again!? But at least there are only 2 people in front of me.
(2 minutes later)
"Next. Next!"(?)
"Down here."(Rina)
"Oh. What brings you here?"(?)
Is what the girl at the end of the place said. She smells weird.
"I was told to come here by a person at the beginning of the city."(Rina)
This book was originally published on Royal Road. Check it out there for the real experience.
"Beginning of the city? You mean the gate?"(?)
"Maybe?"(Rina)
"Well, if the gate guard told you to come here it means you don't have any form of ID. So, probably sent you here to get one."(?)
{Rina, don't forget Blaze also said we should register as an adventurer.} Oh right. He did say that.
"Can I register as an adventurer."(Rina)
"Why would you want to do that?"(?)
"I was told I should do that and level up to get this thing off of me."(Rina)
I then lift up the collar around my neck.
"Oh, gods! Which bastard would put a slave collar on such a young child!?"(?)
Everyone in the building then turned their heads to see what the commotion was about and everyone in the building started saying something about hunting down the bastard who put such a disgusting thing on a young child.
"Um, what's a slave collar?"(Rina)
"Honey, that's what's on your neck."(?)
"Huh? No, it's not. It's a collar of sealing."(Rina)
"It's a what!? Why would they use a collar of sealing!?"(?)
"I don't know."(Rina)
"Hold on how do you know what it is?"(?)
"I checked what it is with a skill."(Rina)
"Hmm, wait here for like 4 minutes. Okay?"(?)
"Okay."(Rina)
(4 minutes later)
"Is this the girl you wanted me to check?"(?)
"Yes, can you check what the collar is?"(?)
"Shouldn't be too hard. [Appraisal]"(?)
"So, the results?"(?)
"She's right it is a collar of sealing. This is both good and bad. Good because removing them is simple and we just need to get anyone with the [Tamer] job or a higher version. It's bad because who the fuck would use a collar of sealing for what they were trying to do. The only conclusion I can think of is that someone tried to kidnap her and used this so she wouldn't struggle. And they didn't know of the fault in this thing is that they can still run even with it on with enough willpower."(?)
"Ok. I'll go find a [Tamer] I'll be right back."(?)
"*Eye sparkling* Am I going to get my memories back?"(Rina)
*Swish Swish Swish*
"Yes, little one you will get them back."(?)
"Yay!"
*Swish Swish Swish Swish*
(1 minute later)
"I'm back and I found an [Advanced Tamer]."(?)
I jumped up from my seat.
"Really!!?? Can I get my memories back!?"(Rina)
*Swish Swish Swish Swish Swish Swish*
"Hahaha, an energetic one you are. Ya, I'll be the one to release you."(?)
Said a woman with black wolf ears. She feels trustworthy from her scent.
"Really!? You're not lying right?"(Rina)
"Haha, no I promise I'm not lying. I'll even tell you, my name. It's Azura I'm an A-rank adventurer. So, if anyone is mean come to me, I'll beat them up."(Azura)
"I'm Rina. And I'm not that weak, hmph."(Rina)
"Hmhm, sure Rina. Now let's get started. Are you ready it's going to hurt when the memories come flooding back."(Azura)
"*Gulp* Do it. I need my memories back."(Rina)
Just as Azura was about to remove it a guy comes rushing in.
*Bam*
"Everyone stop what you're doing!"(Knight Captain)
"Did something happen?"(Rina)
"I don't know. Why would the Knight Captain come here for?"(Azura)
"Has anyone seen a young wolf girl that goes by the name Rina?"(Knight Captain)
My ears go down and my tail goes in between my legs. And I hide behind Azura.
"*Teary eyed* Am I in trouble?"(Rina)
"Did you do something wrong?"(Azura)
"No. Not that I know of. The only thing I can think of is when I poked too much fun at Kari, and she got mad and yelled at me."(Rina)
"Who's Kari?"(Azura)
"I'll show you. [Summon-Kari]"(Rina)
"Yes, Le-Rina."(Kari)
"Kari this is Azura. Azura this is Kari."(Rina)
"You can use taming and summoning magic!?"(Azura)
"(Scared) Is that bad? Am I in trouble?"(Rina)
"*Sigh* Sorry for yelling. No, you're not in trouble. It's just rare for anyone to be able to use any form of that magic. So, I was shocked and happy about it."(Azura)
"(Happy Smile) You're not mad at me!? I didn't do anything wrong!?"(Rina)
*Swish Swish Swish*
"Why is she acting like that? Was she being abused by her family?"(Azura)
I then covered my ears, closed my eyes, and started shaking my head.
"NO! No, don't say that! They were not like that!
(Crying) Aagh, no mom, dad, brothers, sisters please don't leave me. Not again."(Rina)
"*Crotches down and hugs* Hey, hey, Rina calm down. Rina, can you hear me?"(Azura)
"(Confused) Huh? Azura what's going on? Why are you holding me?"(Rina)
"Rina, what do you remember?"(Azura)
"Hmm, the knight guy came looking for me, I showed Kari to you, you yelled, then you mumbled about something, and everything goes blurry. Then, you were holding me."(Rina)
Hey Snow, do you remember what happened? {Nope my memory is the same as yours.} Ok.
"Do you know what happened Kari? Kari!"(Rina)
"(Spooked) *Looks left and right* Huh!? What's going on!?"(Kari)
"Do you know what just happened?"(Rina)
"Did something happen? I was too focused on that man. *Glare* He's dangerous."(Kari)
"Kari, doesn't know either. *Head tilt* Why do you ask? "(Rina)
"It's ok if you don't know. I won't be mad."(Azura)
"Really?"(Rina)
"Yes. (Rub Rub)
*Swish Swish Swish Swish Swish Swish*
It seems like you like your head rubbed"(Azura)
"You're not the first to tell me that today."(Rina)
"Hahaha!"(Azura)
*Stomp Stomp Stomp*
"So, your Rina?"(Knight Captain)
*Grip*
My ears went down, and my tail went in between my legs again, but this time I gripped onto Azura like I was about to die. And it seems she noticed my change in mood.
"Hey! Back the fuck up or we are going to have a problem."(Azura)
"Ma'am calm down."(Knight Captain)
"I will once you back the fuck up."(Azura)
*Ggrrr*(Kari)
"Fine, fine. I'll back up."(Knight Captain)
*Step Step*
"Better?"(Knight Captain)
What the group didn't know was that every adventurer had their hands on their weapons in case he tried anything funny. If he did, he would have got jumped by every adventurer there.
"Now, can we talk?"(Knight Captain)
"Fine. Why are you looking for her?"(Azura)
"To make sure that collar isn't taken off and take her to the castle."(Knight Captain)
"Why can't we take the collar off? And why are you trying to take her to the castle?"(Azura)
"Whoa there calm your killing intent you're scaring her more."(Knight Captain)
*Ding*
[Fear resistance level 4 has risen to level 6]
*Ding*
[Mental attack resistance 3 has risen to level 5]
"HAAH HAAH"(Rina)
"Sorry Rina I didn't mean to hurt you. He just made me so mad. He's trying to take you away without a reason and he wants you to keep the collar on."(Azura)
"NO! I want this thing off. I want my memories. I want to remember my family. I don't want to be stuck like this forever."(Rina)
"Haah, why did I suddenly become the bad guy and make the kid cry."(Knight Captain)
"Then why are you trying to keep the collar on her and why are you trying to take her to the castle."(Azura)
"For the first, I can't say just know everyone will be in danger if the collar comes off and as for the castle. The demon king wants to see her."(Knight Captain)
I don't trust him his scent tells me not to trust him.
If he were to know that he would take massive damage. As someone especially a kid saying his scent is untrustworthy would hurt his pride.
"Demon king? Azura is this city ruled by a demon king?"(Rina)
"Not just this city but the country is ruled by a demon king. But I thought she stays in her territory in Cinith, not Altheria."(Azura)
"Which demon king rules this country?"(Rina)
"That would be the demon king of fluff."(Azura)
"[Summon-all]"(Rina)
"You called master?"(Kear)
"I'm not going. Nope nope nope. I refuse."(Rina)
"Huh? Why did you summon so many wolves?"(Azura)
"Because I refuse to go to her. From what I know she's weird and I don't want her by me."(Rina)
"Have you met her?"(Azura)
"No, but I have her blessing, and, in that message, she gave me the feeling I should stay away from her."(Rina)
"Wait you have a blessing!?"(Azura)
"I have three actually. Is that bad?"(Rina)
"No that's great. But how did you get her blessing?"(Azura)
"I don't know. My memories are sealed remember. But if I had to guess it has to do with this."(Rina)
*Flash*
"Oh, that's rare. A Beastman that can turn into a beast form. You're the third person I know that can do that."(Azura)
"Who's the other 2?"
{Rina she's no-}
"That would be a friend of mine and me.
*Flash*
I can also take a wolf form."(Azura)
Woah, she looks almost the same as Kear with green eyes and their height is the same. The only thing different is gender and Azura is black instead of white.
"Wow, you look like a black female version of Kear."(Rina)
"Who's Kear?"(Azura)
"That would be me."(Kear)
Azura then looked over at Kear.
"Woah, we really do look similar. Except your male and white, and I'm female and black. Bet if you were a Demi-human, you wouldn't look half bad."(Azura)
"It should be possible to get a human form."(Kear)
"And how would you know that?"(Azura)
"The master has one."(Kear)
"That's because she is a Demi-Human."(Azura)
"Huh? Who told you that? She isn't a Demi-Human but a beast and a mystic beast at that."(Kear)
"Kear! You can't go around telling everyone about that! You could get me in trouble if you go around telling everyone that!"(Rina)
"So, what he said was true then. Then who are you really?"(Azura)
My ears fall flat, I look down, and my tail goes in between my legs again.
"Sorry I didn't tell you the whole truth about me. But Wyn said that if I told anyone I'd get in trouble for it. So, I didn't say everything.
I'm Rina Frostfang the last of the True Fenrir race. In the description of my race, it said I was the last one left. I don't know where the others are. They are just gone. I'm sorry for not telling you. *Teary Eyed*"(Rina)
"Haah, calm down. I'm not mad it's just the first time I've heard of a True Fenrir coming to a city."(Azura)
"Actually, the others did go to cities as that's how I have my skill. As it's something called an inherited skill. And it was a widespread skill among the race it ended up an inherit skill."(Rina)
"Well, I wasn't expecting that reveal."(Azura)
"Sorry to interrupt whatever's happening here but can we continue our talk from before?"(Knight Captain)
"Right there was that too. One more question how old are you, Rina?"(Azura)
"6 months old. *Head tilt* Why do you ask?"(Rina)
"I was just confirming because you are small in both forms which means you are a kid. And since you are a wolf that would mean you're around the age of 12 years old for human standards."(Azura)
"I still don't get it but whatever."(Rina)
"Well, let's change back."(Azura)
"I don't want ttoo. It's uncomfortable."(Rina)
{Rina, you know you have to. So, stop fighting it and just do it.}
"Ffiinnee. I'll do it."(Rina)
*Flash Flash*
"Rina why aren't you wearing any clothes."(Azura)
"Right got to take that out."(Rina)
"Everyone look the fuck away if you don't want me to rip your eyes out!"(Azura)
Everyone at that moment looked away for they knew she was not lying when she said that.
*Slash*
*Fwm*
"There I'm wearing something."(Rina)
"Don't you have more to wear?"(Azura)
"You're also not the first to ask that either. And no, I only have this. Wyn gave it to me when we met."(Rina)
"So basically, you've been wearing that this whole time."(Azura)
"Yep"(Rina)
"Haah, I'll give you some of my old clothes. But we'll have to go to my house first."(Azura)
"Is it far?"(Rina)
"No, it's only like a 3-minute walk from here."(Azura)
"Then let's go. [Summon-Subspace]"(Rina)
"Sure. You can't be walking around practically naked."(Azura)
"One question. Do you have anything that doesn't restrict my tail."(Rina)
"Hahaha! Rina they are my old clothes so, of course, they have tail holes, or I wouldn't have used them."(Azura)
'"Oh. Right."(Rina)
"Well let's go. Also, you won't have to store them every time you change your form. Don't think I didn't notice the little space rifts you've been cutting with mana."(Azura)
"Then where do they go?"(Rina)
"You probably didn't notice but, it becomes a colored collar. The color depends on what the wearer wants so I chose black because it's easy to get blood off of it and it matches my fur. But it can really be any color you want."(Azura)
"Ok!"(Rina)
"Hey. Wait we're not done here."(Knight Captain)
"Hey guys! Seems like we got a pervert over here trying to force a kid to stay with almost no clothes on!"(Azura)
"What!? We'll crush him!!"
"Fine you can leave, but I'm coming with you."(Knight Captain)
"Fine but you're staying in the living room and waiting till she is dressed got it?!"(Azura)
"I'm 100% fine with that. I wouldn't want to see that anyway. I'm married so no thanks."(Knight Captain)
(3 minutes later)
"Close the door on your way in. I'm going to help her get dressed."(Azura)
"Why would you dress her she should be fine by herself?"(Knight Captain)
"To make sure you don't try peaking at her."(Azura)
"I already said I'm married, and I have no interest in that kind of stuff!"(Knight Captain)
"Says the person who has been arrested multiple times for walking around with a little girl."(Azura)
"That's my wife and she's older than me! Why does no one believe me when I say that!? She's also the one who proposed to me not the other way around!"(Knight Captain)
"*Glare* Sure. Sure, whatever you say."(Azura)
"It's the truth! Why do I have to suffer like this for accepting a marriage proposal!?"(Knight Captain)
I think I'm actually starting to feel bad for him now.
"Well let's go get you changed."(Azura)
"Ok."(Rina)
*Step Step*x2
*Click*
*Shew Rustle*
*Thump*
"Here this should be good. I've been meaning to get rid of them, but you can have them."(Azura)
"Thanks!"(Rina)
What she gave me was some pants, some underwear, a white shirt, and a cloak and it had holes for my ears and tail same with the pants and underwear. There were some I don't know, shoes? And some socks. And something else I have no clue what it is.
"Hey, Azura what are these."(Rina)
"Well, those on the floor are boots and the thing in your hand is a bra."(Azura)
"What's that?"(Rina)
"It's something you wear on your chest."(Azura)
"Why?"(Rina)
"Rina, I'm not explaining any further just know you need to wear it and not to show anyone else. Okay?"(Azura)
"Okay. But how do I put it on?"(Rina)
"Haa, this is going to take a while."(Azura)
(20 long minutes later)
"Haa, that took forever. How is it that you could do everything, but just couldn't wrap your head around the way to put a bra on."(Azura)
"sorry"(Rina)
"I'm not mad. It's just mind-boggling how it took you 19 minutes to understand how to put it on."(Azura)
"sorry"(Rina)
*Bop*
"Ow! What was that for!?"(Rina)
"Stop saying sor-. Why are you crying?! Did I hit you too hard?!"(Azura)
"Huh? What are yo-, Why am I crying?"(Rina)
"Huh? You don't know why you're crying?"(Azura)
"No. It wasn't that hard of a hit. Yet I started crying."(Rina)
"Are you ok?"(Azura)
"I feel just fine. Oh, it stopped."(Rina)
"I guess it might have to do with your memories."(Azura)
"Now I want them more than ever."(Rina)
"First let's see what he wants."(Azura)'
"Ok."(Rina)
