I've Turned Into A Fox Girl?
Chapter 268 No Longer Cute And Sorting Out Feelings
Shaman froze where she stood as she witnessed a completely different person open the door.
"I-is that you Silver?" Shaman was at a loss for words as the half-wolf person in front of her looked nothing like the cute small wolf boy, instead, it was a wolf man.
"Yes, it is me Mother? Did you get shorter again after evolving?"
"Oh my god." Shaman blinked a few times trying to process what she was seeing, hoping it was just an illusion. Silver was now well over at least 6 feet tall and had gained the physique of a well-trained body that most women would fawn over.
"What?" Silver felt rather awkward that his own mother was just staring at his body.
"Have you even looked in the mirror yet? Also, your voice is deeper now?" Shaman was shocked that Silver wasn't aware of his new looks and expected him to be freaking out.
"No? I just woke up right after you knocked. Although I feel like I did get a bit taller since I had to reach lower than usual." Silver thought to himself as it did seem like some changes happened, but he didn't think they were that big of a deal.
"Go. Look. Right now!" Shaman needed Silver to see the changes as his nonchalant reaction should really be illegal.
"Oh okay, one second then." Silver walked back into his room giving some time for Shaman to think.
'My cute cuddly boy is gone! Does that mean he is at the right age now and I shouldn't be so much against him pursuing Elanor? Is that even morally right? He isn't even a year old mentally.' Shaman fell down a spiral of thoughts and luckily Rea came to interject.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt[If you are concerned about his age, know that due to the nature of Silver's birth, I had linked his aging to his level, so right now he is about 20 and must reach tier 9 or 10 before he resumes aging like normal. I also did the same for you and anyone you gave the system to relative to your current age.]
[So do not worry you won't become old and wrinkly anytime soon and when you reach tier 10 you will be at your peak appearance. This is also the major reason why you enter an egg as it speeds aging and makes sure nothing goes wrong during the process.] Rea explained that the system was actually aging them, which Shaman had already assumed, but she didn't think it actually sped up the process, instead thinking it was more of a cosmetic change.
'But what about mental age? He has barely lived?' There was still one glaring issue that Shaman saw and that was emotional maturity. He may be an adult, but for all she knew, Silver is still a child just in a grown-up body.
[Haha do not worry, you underestimate what the system is capable of, I assure you Silver is emotionally mature, so expect some hard-hitting questions. Don't want to let him down as a mother now hehe~.] With that Rea seemingly disappeared leaving Shaman to drown in her thoughts.
'Urghhhhhh, damn you for being so unreasonably convenient!' Shaman cursed the system for being too good, but it did answer some questions she had even about herself.
'It probably explains why I seem more flirty than usual, the system is bringing out our true selves more and more with each evolution.' It made sense when paired with Rea's explanation, but Shaman felt like this was a little too fast.
"What the hell!!!" Silver's voice echoed from his room signifying he finally saw what he looked like.
"I understand why you looked so shocked now." Silver stumbled his way back to the door looking just as flabbergasted as Shaman.
"See!" Shaman was glad that Silver realised the drastic change and didn't feel like she was going crazy.
However, all the commotion that they were making caused Elanor to wander out of her room to see what was going on.
"The sun is hardly up and there is so much noise." Elanor leaned out of her door which was right next to Silver. In terms of looks, Elanor did not change much as she was much older than the rest of the party meaning she was already close to her peak.
That did not mean she didn't have any changes. Much like Shaman, Elanor had gained a more mature look to her.
Shaman and Silver both locked eyes with Elanor without saying a word.
"Hmm?" Elanor was confused as to why they suddenly stopped talking, but after rubbing her eyes, she finally noticed what happened with Silver.
"O-Oh my." Elanor's face instantly turned red, but she tried to cover it with her hand. Shaman squinted her eyes as she knew exactly what Elanor was thinking.
'Wait, technically Silver is an adult now… so I shouldn't be so stingy anymore? Arghhh! This feels so wrong yet so right.' Shaman was once again debating herself if she should step in or let it happen.
*Sigh* "So yeah, this is Silver." Shaman in the end gave up on having the debate since she already knew Elysia and most likely Clara would be all for Silver getting together with someone. If anything it was probably a good thing it was Elanor as it was someone Shaman could trust at the very least.
"Y-yep, that's me." Silver was also blushing since now that he was older mentally, the signs of attraction were a lot more obvious to him. This put Elanor and him in a sort of stalemate as Elanor couldn't stop staring while Silver couldn't look away either.
It made Shaman want to cover Silver's eyes to stop him from staring, but she refrained and wasn't even sure if she could reach him properly.
"W-well glad to see you all had a smooth evolution, that's all I wanted to check." Shaman didn't want to hang around for too long as the situation was almost too awkward to bear.
"Y-yeah thanks Mum." Silver wanted Shaman to stay for emotional support, but the words he really wanted to say did not come out. However, an Idea popped into his head which might help resolve the situation.
'Rea, please contact Mother Elysia and Clara to come out.' He wasn't sure if this would work in his favour, but it would at least get him out of this weird staring contest with Elanor.
[Sure thing, but I hope you're ready hehe~.] Rea did just as Silver said and shortly after Elysia and Clara came walking out of their room in a hurry. Shaman freaked out as this was quite an awkward situation to walk into.
"Ara~! I was not expecting this." Elysia being her usual self was quick to spot and realise what was going on, instantly taking advantage of the situation.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Damn Silver had another growth spurt overnight." Clara was shocked, but she was more amazed at how much he had developed.
Elanor though, was quick to see what Elysia had planned as the horny fox had an evil grin smeared across her face. So in a panic, Elanor quickly ran back into her room before things got out of hand.
"Awww what a missed opportunity. Anyway, I have to say Silver, you've become quite a handsome young man now." Elysia was disappointed that Elanor ran away, but she wasn't going to chase, so instead Elysia did a few circles around Silver to get a good look at the changes.
"Haha thanks, but it feels awkward being taller than you all now. To think I was looking up at you all not too long ago." Silver felt much better now that Elysia and Clara were here, but he also felt bad for Elanor who was clearly embarrassed by the situation.
"Too bad we are not back in Ebonscale, you would have been very popular amongst some of the women there." Clara remembered all the conversations she would hear from women when she was just out and about which mostly consisted of who was the hottest guard in the area.
"I wouldn't even be able to hold a conversation, let alone approach anyone." Silver thought about it for a moment and saw himself freezing up, unable to really speak while surrounded by women he didn't know.
"Oh well, that doesn't matter, clearly you have your eyes on Elanor." Elysia with a smug grin nudged her elbow into Silver.
"I-it isn't like that… okay maybe a little." Silver pouted as his face returned back to being red. He wanted to deny the allegations, but after a little bit of thought realised there was no denying it, especially in front of Elysia.
"Hang o-… nevermind." Shaman wanted to intervene, but she once again stopped herself.
"It's okay Shaman, I understand how you feel, but at this rate, we can't really stop it. I mean look at Elanor's face before she ran off… it's clear there was something there." Clara knew what Shaman wanted to do, so Clara tried to point out the reality of the situation. She also tried to comfort Shaman by going to her side and holding her hand.
"Will it really be okay?" Shaman didn't want to let go, but Silver quite literally outgrew the image Shaman wanted to keep.
"Of course it will be, it isn't like he is going to run away." Clara assured Shaman that even though Silver may have grown up, granted probably too fast, he wasn't going anywhere.
"I'm sure Silver would love your support, after all, he is your son." Elysia waved at Shaman, bringing to her attention Silver who had averted his eyes, looking like he was seeking approval.
"I…" Shaman second-guessed herself before speaking, but she thought back to how her parents were not the most open-minded and knew how suffocating it felt.
"A-as scary of a thought that you are already grown up, you can do whatever you like Silver. I may be worried sick as a mother, but don't let me stop you from liking someone. If anything, you've made an excellent choice in picking Elanor." Finally receiving his mother's words, Silver's face lit up as he ran at Shaman on impulse giving her a bear hug.
"Thank you Mother!"
