I've Turned Into A Fox Girl?-Chapter 20 Consequences Of Using Too Much Mana

?Elysia had arrived back at their apartment in a hurry as she was panicking. The amount of MP used was more than Shaman could handle and the backlash would be immense. She did not go to any medical ward because that was asking to get caught as she was sure guards would arrive and if a patient with fried mana circuits came in she would be a prime suspect.

'I need to get some healing items, I'm glad that the system allowed us to have a shared account for our finances since for some reason the system saw our bond deepened again and it allowed us to share our money.' Elysia had put Shaman on her bed and could see her orange hair slowly turning back white but her face was full of pain.

A system notification went off.

[Quest: Repair Shaman's mana circuits]

[Either buy the flower of extreme fire or go to the tallest peak in the beast forest to pluck the flower from the nest of Azar]

[Rewards]

Shamans' everlasting gratitude ;)

Elysia was happy to see the quest but could not help but think that the system is playing with her.

'A great reward that I would die for but do I really need to go into the territory of a tier 7 leader firebird, that's just suicided.' Elysia shivered a little since the thought of fighting a tier 7 leader was just a dream.

'Also System did you have to wink at.' Elysia did not actually know the system could talk and was surprised when it responded.

[Just trying to help achieve your goal hehe~]

Although there was no voice she could hear a cheeky brat behind those words.

'Anyway I need to get a move on, I should get some medicine to relieve some pain.' Elysia first went to go buy medicine that could relieve the pain so she could have some peace of mind.

Elysia rushed to the auction house with Wolfy as it would be more logical to find mana circuit medicine at the adventurer guild since they use mana.

After arriving she quickly ordered any medicine that could relieve the pain, she had also ordered a few hundred arrows as she planned on going out to level up and get the funds to pay for the flower so Elysia had a look to see what it would cost for the flower. 𝒇𝘳ℯℯ𝚠𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜ѵ𝑒𝙡.co𝑚

Elysia's brain fried a little as although she expected it, seeing the number made her want to throw up.

[Flower of extreme fire]

[Price: 500 gold coins]

'That's so many hours of hunting, I have no idea how long Shaman can last, I am almost tempted to just sneak into the nest and do a hit and run.' Then Elysia stopped for a moment.

'Doesn't Wolfy have a shadow cloak, maybe we can get into the nest and just be able to leave without being hunted by the Azar?' Elysia thought she had a great idea but forgot the skill is too low level so no matter if cloaked or not it would be ineffective.

'Looks like I'm risking my life for her, I better also get my level up and do some hunting while I am out and I should also get Wolfy to level up.'

Elysia had received the medicine and rushed back home.

She could see that Shaman was still in pain due to her expression and her hair had completely turned back to white.

Elysia quickly applied the medicine and could already see that she looked better and was not in pain.

'Ok, I need to get a move on and get this flower.' Elysia had also tried feeding Shaman some small food and water and was able to get her to eat a little.

Elysia got ready and prepared for a few nights of food as she planned to stay in the forest during the night and only come back to apply for more medicine and feed Shaman.

"Okay I should be no longer than 2 or 3 days and I should have the flower, if not I hope I can get enough gold before it is too late." Elysia had spoken to Shaman hoping she could hear her. She also noticed after killing the tier 4 she had gained 2 levels and 10 attribute points from the quest but since she did hurt Raven she had also gained another 3 level ups from just EXP. She put most of her points into INT as she was going to need to use more powerful shots as she plans to hunt tier 2 leaders within the forest while travelling to the mountain that's in the middle of the forest.

'I wish I got more but all I did was shoot a few arrows and distract her so you could say my contribution was 10% or even less.' Although a little disappointed in herself she was now using this opportunity to pay back her debt to Shaman.

'Now that she is unconscious, maybe I can get my revenge.' Elysia had a grin as she remembered what Shaman had done to her when she passed out.

Elysia went to Shaman's face and gave her a kiss on her forehead.

"There now we are even, Wolfy let's go." Wolfy had jumped on Elysia and they both headed out to the forest.

"WHAT!! Raven has been killed and they raided our underground facility." A handsome nobleman in his study was yelling at what looked like a butler.

"Yes we just received a report that over 100 of our men and Raven have been murdered, we do not know who but all we know is that Raven was burnt to ashes in an ally way." The man was sweating bullets as the nobleman was ready to strike anyone and he did not want to be on the receiving end.

"How can a mere city that only has tier 1, 2 and maybe a tier 3 kill a tier 4, it was the whole reason we came here because most people are weak."

"It was also reported that tier 5 mana waves were detected in the ally way."

"A TIER 5! What are they doing here and why are they meddling with our business." The nobleman was furious as his entire face was red and veins could be seen all over his face.

"Call off the sacrifice and report this to the higher-ups we need to deal with this tier 5 before we can proceed and DO IT NOW!!" The man sat down and was rubbing his temples as the butler exited in a hurry.

"I swear I will murder whoever did this myself."

***

Shaman who was laying in bed was stuck in her own head.

'What's going on.' Shaman was in a daze as she was floating in a sort space-like dimension.

'I create a new skill, use all my mana and wake up here, don't tell me I died and going through reincarnation again.' Shaman could not understand what was going on and couldn't come up with a conclusion as this went against what her ideas of reincarnation could be.

A System message rang out. 𝑓re𝘦𝔀𝗲𝘣𝘯𝘰νℯ𝒍.c𝗼ｍ

[You are in your own head, currently sleeping physically]

'Oh looks like I am alive but not in a good state, Hey system, can you tell what's going on.'

[currently, Elysia and Wolfy are heading to the forest to retrieve a flower of extreme fire that is located in the nest of a tier 7 leader Azar]

'WHAT! that's suicide.' Shaman started to panic as they were walking into a death trap.

'I did not want her to risk her life for me and yet she went ahead doing that.' Shaman had started to cry at Elysia's actions since they were not needed.

'Oh that stupid idiot, she is giving me reasons to fall for her and I might actually have fallen in love, even if she does not get the flower the thought alone and attempting was enough.' Shaman had now realized her feelings as the lengths Elysia is going for had really touched Shaman and she was willing to make that relationship a reality.

Wiping away her tears she continued to ask the system what happened to her.

[Due to creating a tier 5 skill your body could not handle it the so the system reduced it but in the end, you used all your mana at once causing your mana circuits to be fried but not permanently and that is why Elysia had set out to get the item to heal your circuits]

'can't my passive regeneration heal it.'

[If you are willing to wait 6 months then go ahead]

'okay never mind.' Shaman was happy to hear that she would be able to recover no matter what but still being out of action is going to suck.

'I guess all I can do is wait, hey system can I access my stats and allocate my points I got from killing the tier 4.' Shaman wanted to at least do something and since the system worked she also wanted to browse the skill menu and get some new skills as well as use her attribute points.

[You can browse the skill menu and use your 2 skill selects but if you allocate your attribute points it will only cause more harm than good may be killing you instantly]

Shaman shuttered a little and it made sense as when using her attribute points she could feel changes in her body so she did not dare to attempt to use her points.

so instead she began browsing for a new skill.
