Chapter 11 Breaking And Entering
Shaman got up from the floor, getting changed into more of a stealthy attire.
Changing into black stockings with black shorts and a black shirt, she also puts on her dark blue jacket over the top for warmth.
'These clothes are basically the same that come from my world. Kinda glad since I don't think I could stand wearing clothes from the 1700s.' After getting changed Shaman went to the bathroom to look in a mirror to get a proper look at herself which she was yet to do.
'My white hair really does not help with this whole aesthetic of blending in with the darkness.' Shaman sighed as her white hair contrasted with the black and was not ideal for the stealth operation she was about to go on.
However, an idea sprung in her mind and she turned to Wolfy.
"Wolfy, if you can understand me, are you able to cover yourself in Shadows like a cloak?" Shaman tried talking with Wolfy but all he did was tilt his head.
Shaman tried playing charades with Wolfy trying to mimic a shadow covering her body with a towel. After trying for a few minutes Wolfy finally managed to understand and covered himself in Shadow, blending in with the darkness making it seem like something is there but not at the same time. A ding could be heard from the system as this was done.
[Wolfy has learnt a new skill: Shadow Cloak]
[Due to the user getting Wolfy to learn a new skill, it will become her own skill]
[Shadow Cloak]
[-2.5 MP a second when moving]
[-1 MP a second while standing]
[Hides oneself in its own shadow or the surroundings can bring others but will double the MP cost]
"It's all coming together." Shaman was excited and she tried to contain since she did not have time, but seeing Wolfy's tail wag, she couldn't help herself.
"OOHH you are just the best son, I don't know what I will do without you." Shaman vigorously pat Wolfy and hugged him. Wolfy licked Shaman's face in return and shared the excitement with Shaman.
Snapping back to reality Shaman coughed as she was thankful no one saw her like that.
"Ok Wolfy we are heading out now, we have to find some sick adults." Wolfy jumped on her head and Shaman quickly packed some food and water just in case.
Heading outside her apartment, Shaman stops at the edge of the balcony and had an idea.
"Why don't I try to do some parkour, I wanted to do all the cool roof jumping I saw online. Wolfy hold on because we going to jump." Wolfy understood her intentions and went down to her shoulders holding onto her Jacket.
Shaman got on top of the railing and jumped off it to the roof of a building that was next to hers.
'Well that was easy and it felt amazing. Wolfy seems like he can take it as long as I don't roll or do anything extreme. I may have to hold him if I want to do tricks.' Shaman continued to the south which was towards the slum area. She figured if she headed to the border of the slums it would be the ideal area for them to attack as no one really cared for the lower class in most societies.
*
After travelling via rooftop for 30 minutes she finally reaches the slums border.
Shaman the begin to wander around the slums slowly going to common spots where a typical abduction would take place via rooftop.
*
Another 30 minutes later
Shaman's ears picked up the sound of someone struggling and instantly headed in that direction but when she arrived she could see 2 people's silhouettes having a passionate moment through their window.
Shaman slowly turned around and left as her face had turned bright red and due to her wild imagination, she also had some spicy thoughts. But during her little fantasy, a scream could be heard that quickly interrupted Shaman's train of thought.
Thanks to Shaman's great hearing, she was able to hear which exact direction it came from and quickly headed towards it.
Luckily upon arriving in the general area she spotted 2 men carrying a woman who had a gag in her mouth and knew she had found her targets.
Shaman pursued them, fighting the urge to save the women.
After tailing them for 10 minutes they arrive at a run down factory. Shaman entered through a roof window and landed on the walkway above the 2 men.
'I would love to break in and enter because that sounds cooler but this is a stealth mission.'
Shaman observed the 2 men exit the factory, leaving the woman alone and having the moonlight shine brightly down on her. After 5 minutes footsteps echoed through the factory as a man in a hood came out, picking up the woman.
Shaman quietly followed the man trying her best not to get caught. The man led her to a staircase that suddenly opened which seeming leads to an underground base. Shaman knew that it was the base and now had to use a shadow cloak from now on.
After activating the shadow cloak alongside Wolfy, Shaman quickly made her way down from the walkway and dashed past the man going down the stairs.
The man looked around thinking since he felt a presence and thought he saw something move but was unable to see anything. Thinking it was just stress and was starting to get paranoid he quickly entered the underground cavern shutting it behind him.
After Shaman entered she looked around for a room she could hide in so she could reserve her mana. Travelling down the hallway of the underground base she found a room that seemed to be used for storing food. Shaman quickly entered and undid her shadow cloak and thanks to her improved agility, it increased her speed, so she was able to only use a quarter of her mana.
After letting her MP restore close to full she went to leave the room, but before she could leave she heard people talking.
Shaman stood back to get ready to activate her shadow cloak and listened in on the guards.
"That stupid bitch still won't listen to us no matter how much we hit or yell at her, it's a shame we can't do anything more as the boss said we are not allowed to cross that line."
"It is a shame but I honestly don't see the point in keeping her alive, just dump her with the rest of the bodies."
"You have a point but clearly the boss has a plan for her so unless she complies she is useless and we will have to do the sacrifice anyway."
'Huh, a sacrifice? are they gathering young girls to summon something.' Shaman swallowed her saliva as her first thoughts were that of a demonic ritual.
"We could go back down the hall to have one last shot since she will most likely be killed tomorrow, so hopefully we can use her fox fur for something."
"No point heading back, let's just head to bed." The men's voices were now too quiet to hear as they were now too far away for Shaman to hear.
Shaman's eyes widen in shock as it was another Fox girl like her. Something inside her that she had no control over her was compelling her to save the mentioned fox girl. Shaman did not reject this feeling that had suddenly appeared and waited for a few minutes before continuing through the base.
'Judging from that conversation the girl that was taken is most likely dead by now.' Shaman gripped her fists in anger as she wanted to save the girl, but it seemed like they killed them as soon as they are taken.
'I must save that fox girl and get out of here, even if I can't stop the sacrifice I must save her while I'm here.' Shaman knowing that there was at least one person alive she was determined to save them.
However, what was only known to the man that ran the underground operation, is that the ritual they were performing required the blood of a fox girl. The reason the girl was kept alive since the ritual required the body to use as a vessel for what they were going to summon. But it is hard to come by fox girls as most stay in the fox realm for their safety and so finding one outside the territory that doesn't have fighting capabilities were rare.
Only the leader of the cult knew this and that is why he put more importance on the imprisoned fox girl.

Shaman was heading down the hallway trying to find the room that the young fox girl was in so she could break her out.
After travelling through the hallway with a few close calls and sparsely using her shadow cloak her ears picked a young girl crying. Thinking that was her she instantly made her way to the room.
As soon as Shaman had approached the room the girl suddenly stopped crying which made her suspicious but she still proceeded with caution.
'This must be her cell. Although she stopped crying she might have been able to sense that I was here.' Shaman approached the door and looked through the small window to see a badly beaten black-haired fox girl that looked 18-19 curled in the corner of the room.
Shaman's heart ached upon seeing this and to her surprise, the men had left the door unlocked.
'Are they that confident that no one is going to break in?' Shaman was extremely confused by this as the girl would have been able to walk straight out, but she guessed they had patrols all night making it impossible for a defenceless girl to escape.
The fox girl looked up to see a beautiful white twin-tail fox girl sneak in. Hope filled her eyes and tears started to form again as she finally seemed to be getting saved.
Changing into black stockings with black shorts and a black shirt, she also puts on her dark blue jacket over the top for warmth.
'These clothes are basically the same that come from my world. Kinda glad since I don't think I could stand wearing clothes from the 1700s.' After getting changed Shaman went to the bathroom to look in a mirror to get a proper look at herself which she was yet to do.
