Arpious of the Planes

[Wisp Fox]

[A type of fox that is mainly centered around [Fire Control]. The fire this fox produces is blue and allows it to travel through thin surfaces.]

"Master what did you to your eyes...?" Kumo said.

"Uhhh nothing it's just that they got hurt... yeah hurt..." I said timidly.

Nevermind that the voice that I heard through [Mind Control] was a women's voice and it sounded very mature. Her appearance didn't match her voice so I was kind of shocked when she started to talk. I'm assuming Kumo told her about me since she knows how to communicate with me and knows my name. Also, what did she say about her being the last wisp fox?

"Wait... last wisp fox, like your the only one left in existence," I said.

"Yes, my... tribe was the last one of wisp foxes until..." said Flame with tears welling up next to her eyes.

"Whatever I don't want to hear your complaints but I'm not bringing you with us. You should be happy that Kumo showed some mercy to you while I was asleep otherwise I would've eaten you," I say sternly.

This made her start to burst out in tears because she was probably hoping to vent some of her feelings but, I couldn't care less I just want to find somewhere to stay and start growing stronger. Kumo starts to frown because even though she expresses her feeling more honestly now she can't go against my decision, but this didn't stop her from trying to persuade me.

"Master is there any way for her to come with us, she could be of use," says Kumo with puppy dog eyes.

"... I'll bring her but only if she's not like this soooo... just say what you want to say," I said.

"We lived on the outskirts of [Waterfall Hills] in a cave that was enough to fit all 60 of us. I was the chief's daughter of our tribe and everybody loved me. We were definitely aware that we were the only ones left of our kind because of the story told by our ancestors about bears ravaging our homes. But I was naive and didn't believe in those stories and focused on the present and trying to take over the position of my dad. I never actually thought that bears would come to invade our cave. We tried to push them back but they were too strong even though we outnumbered them. Eventually when defeat was clear everybody made a path for me outside the cave telling me to survive and make sure our species doesn't become extinct. Even though I refused they forcefully pushed me out and all I could do was run away in the opposite direction. I ran for quite a while until I lost all of my stamina and fell into the river which was the last of what I remembered," said Flame.

"Cool, but if you want to come with us become my servant," I say coldly.

Flame was very hesitant because she has the pride of the daughter of a chief but eventually, she swallows her pride and accepts my condition.

[Would you like to make [Flame] your servant?]

Yes

...

[Congratulations [Flame] is now your servant?]

[Would you like to name her?]

"I'm just going to pick a name since I don't want to waste any more time,"

"Yes, ma'am," Flame replies.

Homura, that should be good since it means flame.

[Wisp Fox has been granted a name by Arpious]

[Wisp Fox is now Homura]

I look over to Homura and check her status...

"All right let's go,"

Homura and Kumo both nod and we make our way to the waterfall that blocks our exit. None of us have water control so we can only risk it and jump straight through it. I count down from 3 and on go we jump through the water into the air. I look down and see a beautiful spectacle. There are no trees and the waterfall gushes into a lake right below us. Even though I called it a lake it wasn't that big, only about the width and length of a regular house.

*Splash*

Thankfully the water was deep enough that we wouldn't hit the bottom when we dove in. As we start paddling our way to land I feel something wrap around my legs and try to pull me under the water. I take a deep breath before it drags me underwater and I look down to see what was trying to kill me... constrictor koi. The snakes as its whiskers have already wrapped around my legs but I already was putting my countermeasure in place. I use [Thunderbolt] which fries the fish instantly but I didn't really think about myself. The electricity runs throughout the water killing the fish but also shocking me. I feel every muscle in my body seize up like their cramping and feel my body burn everywhere.

[1000 XP gained]

[You leveled up]

[You gained the following skill]

[Lightning Resistance]

[Discarding extra XP]

[Evolution available]

[Select evolution]

I don't even glimpse at the notifications instead I try to wiggle my way to Homura so I can get back to land safely. Kumo goes ahead and grabs the fish for dinner.

When we get to land safely my body starts to loosen up and start to move again. Kumo finally finishes dragging the fish out of the water and we immediately devour it.

[Gained the following skills]

[Body Modification: Aquatic Lungs]

[Water Control]

I've been getting so many skills lately I wish I could like, fuse them together to maybe get stronger skills, hope I can do that in the future... possibly. Also, I got another body modification this time its [Body Modification: Aquatic Lungs] which probably lets me breathe underwater. Isn't there something like pain nullification in this world I could use that right now, but I guess that would be kind of overpowered.

I use [Body Modification: Aquatic Lungs] and feel a burning sensation in my chest no itchiness but it feels like my chest is on fire. I somehow manage to suppress my scream but I started rolling on the ground and gave the excuse that I was hungry to Kumo.

Was it me or did she just roll her eyes?

We were still hungry so Homura went hunting for some food and brought back an Aqua Boa. I used this chance to see if I can inspect a dead thing and I was able to confirm it.

[Aqua Boa]

[These Boas mainly live near water but never actually enter the body of water because they are unable to swim.]

After we finished eating I checked my status while Kumo and Homura discuss something.

[Titles: [Blessed by ********* ****** of *************] [Savage Assassin] [Heartless]

Oh, I can evolve let's do that right now.

Before I could do that though, Homura gestures for me to sleep on her since she's kind of like a pillow. I lay my head down on her body and confirm the evolution.

[Would you like to evolve?]

Yes

[Select evolution]

...

[Dark Siren]

[Thunder Siren]

[Cursed Pelican]

...

Can I inspect these, before I couldn't because of my raging headache but now I feel like I can?

[Dark Siren]

[A new species that has never existed before]

[Specializes in dark magic (Shadow Control, Mind Control, Petrification) and also has above-average speed and strength]

[Gain a human body with wings attached to your back and instead of feet you have talons]

[High chance of future evolution choices]

Oooooo I can have a human body and it has a high chance for future evolutions. Alright, let's move on to the next one, Thunder Siren.

[Thunder Siren]

[A new species that has never existed before]

[This species fuses with your lightning trait creating a new species]

[Specializes in lightning magic and speed]

[Gain a human body with wings attached to your back and instead of feet you have talons]

[Low chance of future evolution choices]

This one seems alright and not really what I'm looking for since it has a low chance for its future evolutions. Even though I might be weak for a while over time I can become the strongest in existence, which is why I want a high chance for future evolutions. NEXT!

[Cursed Pelican]

[A jack of all trades besides your incredibly above average strength]

[Allows you to use forbidden magic that would normally kill the user]

[No chance of future evolution choices]

That forbidden magic looks tempting until I saw that I can't evolve anymore... what a turn-off.

So it's between Dark Siren and Thunder Siren... probably Dark Siren. With Dark Siren I can specialize in more than one type of control... or magic I don't know, it doesn't make any sense. Also with the high chance of future evolution, it's a no-brainer.

[Dark Siren Selected]

[Would you like to evolve?]

[Yes] [No]

Yes

I instantly pass out after selecting yes.

A/N - Oh yeah the siren I'm going for is the bird from Greek mythology. There is a fish, siren, mermaid thing so don't get confused with that. If you want to search it up put "Siren Bird." I'm not going to use its exact appearance but just mix it up a bit. That future evolution choice idea was from "Epic of Caterpillar" if you haven't read it you should definitely check it out.
