Chapter 67 Moving In

"Alright let me show you to your room." Himeko was not taking no for an answer from Shaman.

"You really don't have to, we can always rent a place or stay at an inn." Shaman on the other hand did not want to burden Himeko with looking after them after she already agreed to training them.

"Oh come on, are you really going to reject your Auntie like that."

"But we hardly know you and this does not feel like a fight." Shaman had an uneasy feeling and was still not 100% trusting of Himeko.

'I bet she is going to die in order to save me in the future, I have to stay clear of her otherwise she will lose her life.' Once again Shaman was basing her assumptions on novels she has read and could tell Himeko is the type of character to die in order for the protagonist to live.

Himeko walked up to Shaman and grabbed her by the cheek, Shaman began to squirm and try to fight back.

"You are staying here, end of story." Himeko began to be fed up with Shaman's theatrics.

"Yes ma'am." Shaman had resigned quickly and Elysia began to laugh as the sight of Shaman being almost picked by the cheeked was amusing.

"Since you two are dating I assume you don't mind if you share a bed and so it is easier to do your nightly duties." Himeko poked out her tongue and winked at Elysia which caused her to go bright red.

"yes." Elysia stopped laughing as she did not believe it was that obvious that they were doing that kind of thing and spoke in a low voice.

Himeko looked over at Wolfy who had been silently laying there the whole time minding his own business.

"I'll make sure your familiar gets a soundproof space so he isn't disturbed." Himeko also noticed the breed of Wolfy was quite odd and could tell it was an intelligent beast but headed it no more attention.

Shaman on the other hand got a good hit on Himeko's forehead causing her to finally get free from Himeko's grasp.

"Ow!" Himeko was now annoyed and as she was about to try to grab Shaman to stop her from running, an Ice wall suddenly formed in front of her hand.

"Ohoh~ that's a third element now." Himeko was even more intrigued by Shaman's capabilities as this was now the third element she as shown.

[Ice Wall]

[Create a dense wall of ice to stop a physical attack.]

[Cost: Varies depending on the density of the ice]

Shaman created a basic ice skill and used her wind to boost herself away from Himeko. Shaman headed towards the wall and turned around to face Himeko.

However Himeko could not be seen but suddenly a hand grabbed Shaman's shoulder from behind.

"A 4th element, you sure are a bag of treats aren't you." Himeko was ecstatic as Shaman is one of the few people in the world who can even wield 4 elements and if Shaman managed to become a top rank adventurer she would be a monster on the battlefield.

"I already agreed to stay, no need to treat me like a child." Shaman pouted as she felt powerless and could not help but feel like she was being played with.

"How cute~." Himeko poked Shaman's cheek and Elysia was now on the floor laughing as for once Shaman does not have the upper hand.

"Oh shut up Elysia." Shaman had gone red as she was being embarrassed in front of Elysia.

"Alright enough fooling around there is a lot I want to teach you tomorrow and I want you well rested, so follow me." Himeko began to walk to one side of the room.

Shaman went to Elysia to help her up but not without smacking her on the head for laughing at her and then they followed Himeko to the side of the room.

Instead of using the ball of fire Himeko usually uses, she pushed on one of the support beams in the wall, shortly after mechanical sounds could be heard and the wall started to open.

"Seeing as you girls can't travel like I can, you can use the stairs instead." Himeko then began to walk down the staircase that wrapped around the building till they reached the floor below.

"This will be your room and just so you know you are in the middle of the tower so you still get a great view of the city." Himeko opened the room which was rather bare, only having a bed and a basic kitchen.

"I did not expect visitors so bear with me and I'm sure you brought along some belongings so make yourself at home at home." Shaman, Elysia and Wolfy walked into the room and got familiar with the surroundings.

"I will come back tomorrow with a soundproof kennel just for you buddy." Himeko squatted down and petted Wolfy. Wolfy gave a positive response and could not wait to have a peaceful night sleep without being disturbed.

"Well if you need anything I will be upstairs so make sure you get enough sleep because I will be coming down to drag out no matter how much sleep you get." With that said Himeko clicked her fingers and vanished from the spot.

"Well at least we got out accommodation sorted." Things still felt surreal to Shaman as they will be getting personal training from a tier 10 expert.

"Well I did not expect she would be related to your family." Elysia had already found her way to the kitchen and began to unpack all of her cooking equipment.

"It is nice to know that I have a place to come back to, though the news about my Fox parents being trapped does raise many questions." Shaman thought back to the black and can only assume it might be the key to getting inside the black dome.

"Well I guess that means we just have to get stronger before we go to the Fox realm." Elysia had already begun to cook dinner as the sun could be seen setting outside the window.

"It sucks knowing we can't do anything till we are stronger." Despite it not being her actual parents she still felt a sense of duty to go and protect them.

"Well lets hope this training can speedrun us to a higher tier." Elysia hoped that by training with Himeko they would get a significant boost in levels.

"I don't think we will gain levels but we definitely upgrade our combat ability, lets hope she can also teach Wolfy a few things." Shaman only expects her skills and tier with her current elements to get a significant boost.

"It would be nice If I could get trained with my shadows to be an assassin as that seems to really fit me." Wolfy was already a fan of Himeko and hoped he could improve his usefulness on the battlefield.

"Well unless you get a human body I don't really know how she would teach a Wolf." Elysia wanted Himeko to teach Wolfy as well but did not know how it worked.

"Well, let's hope we can get something for him anyway." Shaman believed even though he may not get physical training he could at least learn the theory behind it.

"I can't wait to get a human form." Wolfy was a little envious as it seemed very convenient to have one.

"We just have to wait and see and who knows it might be one of those secret missions that you have to do to get one." Shaman assumed that there had to be a prerequisite in order for Wolfy to obtain a human form.

"Why don't we ask Rea?" Elysia figured they could just ask since Rea is the system.

"Sorry but I can't answer that question and you are just going to have to find out yourselves hehe~" Rea responded and Elysia went back to cooking dinner.

"Just as I thought." Shaman assumed this outcome as usually Rea would answer without them even asking so it was expected.

"Oh don't be like that Shaman, I only hide information because it would just make your life too easy."

"But why?" Shaman figured that system was trying to help her not challenge her.

"Well that's because Aki-." Rea was suddenly cut off.

"huh?" Shaman was confused but then she realized that Rea almost told them the name of what might be a god/higher being that is in control.

"Elysia what did Rea say?" Shaman did not catch what Rea had said as the realization of what Rea was saying distracted her.

"What?" Elysia had actually not been paying attention as she was too busy cooking them dinner.

"Wolfy?" Shaman looked at Wolfy but Wolfy shook his head.

"How the hell did we miss that, it could have been crucial information." Shaman could not believe it but despite not knowing the name it was confirmation that there was a presence beyond this world watching them.

"Well do you want to be worrying about that right now." Elysia did not see the point of bothering with it as they had more pressing issues.

"I... I guess you are right." Shaman could not deny what Elysia said but it was still bugging her that there was now a possibility of finding out why she was transported to this world.

"Come on don't be all gloomy, here Dinner is just about ready so let's eat." Elysia was also rather curious but knew that they wouldn't be getting any information anytime soon and was better just to focus on what's in front of them.

'I should just leave it be, I will get my answers once I reach tier 10.' Shaman knew something was going to happen when she reached that tier so her determination to get there had grown as it may give her the answers she is looking for.
