I walked outside of the tent to find the entire village of fox-kin being burnt.
There were fox-kin burnt into the ground, all charred up.
It was a horrible sight.
The flames consumed several tents and the forest around the village, and there were several humans around, they looked just like earth's humans. Their presences emanated strong Rank 2 and above Mana Cores, and they wore magic armor and torches, alongside magic weapons.
The fox-kin in this village were all weak, barely at the Initial Stage, some at the Middle Stage of Rank 1. This body hasn't even awakened its mana core yet, so she was a very weak mortal.
However, I suddenly realized something.
<Despite being a mortal in this dream, the Dream Fox Venerable was a Reincarnated soul, due to this, she possesses three Unique Skills at her disposal. Those are [Dream Magic], [Advanced Calculation Speed], and [Spirit Creator]>
These Unique Skills already sound overpowered… But I have no idea how to use them.
<Apparently, Dream Magic has been created in this world thanks to that Unique Skill, Advanced Calculation Speed aids her as a passive skill that enhances the speed of her thought processing and calculation, and Spirit Creator lets her create spirits through the use of Mana and imagination.>
Wow, she can just create spirits?!
<Nonetheless, our usage of it is very poor at this stage.>
I knew it, it was going to be hard.
As I lurked outside, I saw how the Humans were fighting against a few Fox-kin, they were using everything they could, but the humans overpowered them and slaughtered them.
Ahh…
This is terrible, even as a reincarnated person…
Suddenly, my own body began to move on its own, tears began to flow out of her eyes as she saw in disbelief the fox-kin man that died before her.
"F-Father!!!"
It seems that it was in auto mode because she rushed back to her father who had received a sharp spear made of wind into his chest, he was bleeding and had a terrible wound, a whole hole on his chest, I don't know how he was still somehow alive.
"Belle… Run… R-Run away…"
"No, I can't let you die! Papa! I can… I can heal you!"
The girl suddenly tried to use Spirit Creator to create a spirit that could help her heal, but her mana pool was abysmal, and she failed miserably.
Suddenly, I gained control once more.
A human noticed us and pointed his finger at us, a blade made of shadows was materialized and fired directly towards me.
Fucking monster, she's a little girl!
I had no time to help her father, I quickly ran away and jumped out by releasing icy winds from my legs, which I managed to evade!
BOOOOMMM!
The shadow blade reached her father, however, as it exploded, and his entire body was splattered across the entire floor.
A horrifying scene that a little girl shouldn't see.
The girl's expression changed in horror, her eyes were sinking into her skull as she gritted her teeth, anger pouring into her heart as she glanced resentfully at the human.
"You bastard!!!"
"Tch, what an annoying kid…"
The mage slowly walked towards us as another came at his side.
"A little girl? We could sell her for slavery. I bet some eccentric old man would like her in his harem."
"You're right, she's quite pretty…"
Shit!
I gained control of my body once more and ran for my life!
I ran and ran, without stopping.
However, these two bastards were incredibly fast, they reached up to me in no time!
"Come on, don't make this difficult for us!"
They surrounded me from behind and in front, the girl suddenly got in four legs, roaring and groaning like a wild fox, her hair became sharp, and she looked feral.
"GGRAA!"
She went berserk, as I suddenly gained control once more!
Fuck! Winter Magic!
I used whatever mana this girl had and conjured a spear made of ice, firing it directly into the bastard's face!
"Eh?!"
CLAAASH!
"UAAGGH…!"
The spear wasn't strong enough, and it was small, but it impaled his left eye and made him cry in agony, the other was left surprised, as he tried to catch me. Because they wanted me alive, they were not going serious on me, this gave the girl an opportunity to get through it!
However, the girl chose to escape, jumping over the wounded man's head and leaping deep into the forest.
Looking back at her burnt village, tears didn't stop pouring from her eyes. And I too shared her sorrow.
As I dived into the forest, I seem to have lost control once more, the girl continued to escape across the forest, surviving however she could, sleeping inside hollow trees, hiding from grisly bears, and hunting horned rabbits.
<It seems that you've completed the first scenario.>
So there are scenarios? How many?
<It is unknown, but through analyzing the structure of the dream, a part of it is missing, it has dissipated, approximately, around 20%... if we calculate it based on it, there might be four more trials before the last one, where you must die at the end…>
I see, thank you. You're very useful, without you, I would be a goner.
<You're also skilled, Drake. Now, by reading the signatures and fluctuations of the dream land's cloud, it apparently is about to begin a new scenario, be ready.>
And it started right away.
After the girl survived for around four years in the wild, she suddenly found a human town right next to the outskirts of the immense forest where she was living in.
Was the Fox Venerable born in Midgard? There are a lot of humans…
She had trained a lot in these four years and had even grasped the ability to finally create up to two Spirits, but their power doesn't exceed hers, so she has to be very intelligent in how to use them. Her dream magic had barely developed though, even with her powerful mind, they're confusing and make her dizzy, she cannot employ them correctly yet.
She looked over the village and then, I gained control of her.
What should I do?
