I've Turned Into A Fox Girl?

Chapter 185 Shadowy Execution



Silver, splitting off to his own section, felt a bit nervous as he would be facing opponents that would be more on par with his level.

'It won't be as easy as that beast tamer dungeon.' Reminding himself not to get overconfident, Silver already found himself in the centre.

"Whoops I didn't attract their attention." Silver only had a few elves following him as he was too busy in his thoughts to create any noise.

'Maybe I can do this quietly. No, that would take too long.' Silver thought about going around the town using his shadows to kill the elves silently, but it would take him forever.

'I guess yelling will just have to do.' Silver had no other option as he had no skills that could help him make noise.

"HEY, YOU DARK ELF BASTARDS, COME AND GET ME!!!" Yelling as loud as he can, he could already hear movement as small groups of elves started converging toward him.

'Hopefully that's enough.' Silver didn't want to kill his throat, so while he waited, he went to deal with the first few elves that followed him.

Spinning the scythe in his hand, he watched a few elves charge at him with knives and gardening tools.

Putting the artificial sun to his back, Silver stopped his scythe and raised it up high, casting its shadow on the ground before him, awaiting the oncoming elves. Once they stepped onto the shadow, Silver stabbed the ground with his scythe. The shadow erupted from the ground in response, shooting out shadow spikes that resembled a scythe's blade. The elves were all skewered and killed with ease, giving some time for Silver to prepare for the rest of the elves.

Recalling back the shadow, Silver looked around where the elves were coming from, so he could plan where to go next. Spotting a group of elves coming from a market area first, Silver jumped into his shadow and made his way to the elves.

Once he was under their feet, like he did with the previous elves, he shot up shadow spikes killing most of them while also coming out to finish off the last elf himself. Having killed 5 more elves, Silver saw the next wave coming, but this time there were a lot more elves than he could take out at once.

The group of 15 elves saw Silver surrounded by dead bodies and rushed forward, making their way over to him in a frenzy. However, just as they reached him, Silver disappeared in his shadow, confusing them.

Shortly after, at the back of the group of elves, a couple of elf heads were decapitated. The others turned around, but as soon as they did more elves were killed. Realising that the enemy would always attack from behind, they quickly formed a circle, but this only worked in Silver's favour.

Appearing in the middle of the circle, Silver spun on his feet and cleanly cut all the elves in half. Blood splattered everywhere tainting his silver hair. He tried to avoid that but was unable to get in his shadow quick enough.

'Damn it, I'm going to need Mother to wash my hair with her water.' Silver wanted to avoid getting bloody as it was annoying to clean.

Silver, now having dealt with a lot of the basic elves, was left with only a single group of 25 elves. 5 of which were guards and the rest being normal.

The elves looked around for Silver, but they were only able to see the corpses of their own kind which infuriated them even more.

Silver knew the guards were trouble, so he decided to target them first, but upon exiting his shadow to execute one, he suddenly turned around.

The guard thrusted his spear at the exact location where Silver would come out, yet it hit nothing as Silver managed to get back in his shadow.

Breathing heavily, Silver needed a moment to calm down as he didn't expect the guard to respond so quickly.

'Okay so I can't sneak up on them.' Silver tried to figure out what he would do as getting the jump on them was now virtually impossible.

'I will just have to fight head on, but I need to get rid of the fodder first.' Silver was not idle for too long, making his way to the part of the group where the normal elves were gathered. However, the normal dark elves were spreading out to look for Silver as they knew he was close, but were unaware he was in their shadows.

Silver jumped out of the shadow of one of the elves, sliced them in half and then spun on his feet. Extending out his scythe as far as he could, he managed to hit a couple more elves before the guards rushed him with their spears.

Silver repeated this process, but the guards were getting quicker, learning Silver's attack patterns and preparing attacks where shadows extended. When only a few last normal elves remained, the guards prepared themselves once more for retaliation, aiming to hit silver when he comes out for the last remaining elf.

However, Silver knew this, so he made sure the last elf would be close to a building so he would be able to exit the shadow without getting hit.

Jumping out of the side of the building, Silver swung down with his scythe and pierced the head of the elf while still in mid-air. The guards were already striking back, but they did not expect Silver to come out from above and miscalculated their trajectory. Blades of wind passed just below silver, who leveraged his scythe, still stuck in the elf's body, to push himself away from the projectiles, only getting scratched on his back.

Silver fell to his knees in pain as there was a massive cut on his back that kept bleeding. The guards charged at Silver, but he quickly went back into his shadow to get back to safety.

'Damn it that hurt, I should have just instantly gone back into the shadows.' Silver regretted staying out as he thought he would have time to counterattack, but instead it backfired, getting him hurt.

Taking a moment to recover, he came out of the shadows behind a building and wrapped himself in bandages trying to stop the bleeding as much as he could.

Once he was done, he got back up and quickly returned to where the guards were. Taking a different approach, Silver decided to fight them head-on as sneaking up on them was not going to work.

Coming out in front of the guards, Silver prepared for their attack and as he predicted they came charging at him. Silver hit the bottom of his scythe on the ground, letting its shadow extend and drown the nearby area. This was inspired by Shaman's sword domain move. Although it cost mana to do what Silver was doing, he still wanted to create a domain.

[Shadow domain]

However, the system recognised it as its own skill, releasing him from the burden of using a constant stream of mana.

The guards did not care for the shadow as it did not pose an immediate threat to them. Before they could reach him, Silver threw his scythe into the shadow as if it was consumed by the darkness. This only made Silver seem more vulnerable, making the elves get more cocky.

Silver smirked as he pointed up with his finger and his scythe came out of the shadows slicing right through one of the guards. This caused the other elves to halt their charge as they expected more to come out of the ground.

Silver, seeing they were now distracted, sprinted towards them, jumped up in the air and grabbed onto his scythe.

Coming back down, Silver's trajectory brought him right on top of another guard. The guard saw the danger from above, but missed the one from below. Shadow spikes shot out from the domain, hitting his lower half and disrupting his movement. Being unable to move the elf watched Silver swing and decapitate him.

The other elves realised that there were no attacks coming from the ground so their attention was back on Silver.

The 3 remaining elves all thrusted their spears at Silver, but he was able to easily dodge them by sinking part of his body into the shadows. While he was low he swung at the legs of one of the elves causing the elf to fall. Flippin his scythe upwards, he let the elf fall onto the blade, getting skewered to death.

The other 2 elves redirected their efforts to ranged attacks, sending wind slashes, but Silver disappeared before those reached him.

Shortly after his disappearance shadow spikes emerged, aiming for the last 2 elves' feet, but they were able to barely dodge them. Coming out of the shadow once more, Silver was the one to charge at them.

The elves went to move back, but a shadow wall was suddenly erected behind them blocking them from moving away. However, the wall itself became yet another course of attack as spikes came out of it, piercing the shoulders of the 2 elves.

While the elves were screaming out in pain, Silver had free range to kill the elves, and so he swung horizontally killing the two elves in one swing.

Dispelling the domain, Silver managed to clear his area, although not without consequence.

"Hope mother doesn't get angry." Silver knew he only needed a small heal, but knowing his mother, she would freak out and go on a rampage.

"Oh well I should quickly get to the centre and wait for the others." Silver didn't want to waste time as the quicker he got to the centre, the quicker he could rest.
