Chapter 52 Moving Forward

Inside Shaman and Elysia's apartment 2 eggs began to shake and slowly form cracks. After 5 minutes of shaking Elysia was first to break out and a few seconds later Shaman broke out as well.

Elysia let out a yawn as evolving took a considerable amount of energy despite being asleep for many hours. Shaman had also done the same thing and stood up and to Elysia's surprise it looked like Shaman had grown in height which was about 6'1 making her a half a head taller than Elysia.

Shaman glanced over and was wondering why Elysia had a confused expression. Her first conclusion was that something went wrong with the evolution but could not see or feel anything wrong with her body. However Elysia was looking at Shaman in awe as the added height Shaman gained made her more elegant and defined her body more.

"She is beautiful." Elysia muttered which caught Shaman's attention.

"What was that?" Shaman looked at Elysia looking for answers as she was curious why Elysia who was sitting on the floor was being so unresponsive and was entranced by something.

"You're beautiful!" Elysia spoke in a louder voice and Shaman ended up blushing at Elysia's comment and became a little shy.

"Well I can say the same about you." Shaman responded as now that she was not worrying about herself, she could see that Elysia looked more mature.

"Well I don't think I had that big of a change unlike you hehe~." Elysia looked at herself and could not spot any major differences and was more curious about how Shaman would react to her new gained height.

"What? Tell me, what has changed?" Shaman knelt down to Elysia grabbing her shoulders wanting answers.

"jeeez go look in a mirror and see if you can see yourself." Elysia waved her off as it was not as big of a deal that she was making it.

Shaman dashed off to the bathroom and went to look in the mirror to see what Elysia was talking about.

"MY HEIGHT IS COMING BACK." A shout could be heard from the bathroom and Elysia could not help but crack up laughing as that was not the response she was expecting. Shaman heard her laughing and poked her head through the door.

"What's so funny?" Shaman was not impressed as she thought Elysia was laughing at her and so she glared at her.

"Oh my I did not expect that reaction out of you I thought you would have hated being tall but instead it was the opposite." Elysia stopped rolling on the floor and sat up and looked at Shaman.

"hmph." Shame looked away as her reaction was a little absurd and could not get annoyed at Elysia so instead she explained herself.

"Well that's because I used to be really tall before I got transported and was one of the things I took pride in." Shaman was happy that she gained some of her height but also still a little disappointed that she was not back to how she was back at home.

"Fair enough but how tall were you, surely you were not that much taller than you are now." Elysia had not seen many tall women so it was odd for her to imagine.

"Well seeing how this door is probably just over 2 meters tall, if I was in my old body I would be almost hitting my head on it." Shaman casually explained her height as the door was a good reference to imagine her height.

Elysia on the other hand could not believe what she heard as it was unheard of for people to be that tall unless they are a descendant of the giants..

"It's nothing that special, it is just how I was and let me tell as the races evolve they tend to grow taller and taller so expect a lot more people to eventually get as tall as me naturally." Shaman saw Elysia's shocked expression and she could tell that in today's age it was unnatural to be as tall as she was.

"oh okay." Elysia snapped out of it and finally stood up.

"Shall we eat this egg and go for a bath?" Elysia wanted to head to bed but felt dirty.

"Sure." Shaman did not see why not and so they went for a bath.

*

After the bath Shaman Realized that her clothes do not fit her as well and is going to need to go out to buy some. Luckily her coat and some small pieces of clothing fit but her T-shirts and some pants she had.

"uhhh Elysia, I'm going to need to go get some new clothes since it seems like I have out grown them." Shaman called out to Elysia who was already dressed and was waiting for Shaman to finish up.

"Yay! is it okay if I choose your clothes?" Elysia was eager to go shopping as it was something she never got to do and really enjoyed it whenever she did, so the opportunity to pick out clothes for Shaman was a dream.

"Sure but as long as it is nothing too fancy or extravagant, just some nice clothes and a bit of casual wear will do." Shaman was a little worried as Elysia's fashion sense was not something she wanted to trust.

"okaayyy but hurry up, I want to sleeeeep." Elysia was excited but was too tired to show it and wanted Shaman to hurry up and get in bed.

Shaman finally came out with her top looking a little small on her giving her a mid drift. Elysia could not help but chuckle a little which made Shaman go bright red of embarrassment.

Shaman lightly tapped Elysia's head to get her to stop and jumped in bed.

"Hurry up and sleep." Shaman snuggled into Elysia as it was now her favourite place to be. Elysia hugged Shaman and they both went to sleep for the rest of the night.

*

The afternoon arrived and the 2 girls were still fast asleep. Wolfy, who had been chilling on the bed minding his own business, walked over to Elysia and Shaman. Wolfy knew they should be awake by now and so he decided to jump up and try to wake them up. Wolfy landed on Shaman's stomach causing Shaman to shoot awake dragging Elysia with her. This caused Elysia to wake up as she had just been flung by Shaman and was now disoriented.

"What was that?" Shaman was confused but then she saw Wolfy who was looking at her with happy eyes trying to hide the fact he did it.

"It was you." Shaman glared at Wolfy which made Wolfy start to run away. Shaman got out of bed to chase Wolfy around the apartment but due to wolfy being a beast he was a lot harder to catch than just a normal dog. Elysia however was still dizzy from being suddenly woken up and laid in bed, in an awkward position while she recovered.

*

After Shaman finally caught Wolfy she was able to tell him off.

Shaman, after telling Wolfy off, dragged Elysia out of bed since it was already the afternoon and they needed to talk about what to do next and what skills they should get.

"Okay so we need to decide if we stay here to take on the tier 5 dungeon or we move to a different city since at this rate surely someone who is running this weird cult has caught onto us and we may need to move once again." Shaman was worried that they may take notice which was the opposite they wanted.

"I feel like we could move cities as I do want to leave this region as soon as possible as being in a human dominant territory makes me uncomfortable." Due to Elysia's horrible experience with humans she would do anything to get out of Elysium.

"Fair but where should we go since we need to make sure we go to a place where we can level up and get stronger." Shaman pulled out a map she acquired of all the places and by pointing at it the system was able to give small details about the city and the general tier of the place.

"Oh how about Ebonscale, that place is tier 5 and also gets us closer to the elf territory." Elysia pointed at the map showing what seemed to be a place with a lot of forest and mountains.

"This place seems alright but the travel time is a bit much so we should take today to prepare and get supplies needed and head out tomorrow or the day after." Despite it going to be a couple day trip it was better than staying in one place.

"That sounds like a plan, so about those clothes." Elysia had a grin as she had not forgotten Shaman was in need of some clothes so she wanted to go out shopping as soon as possible.

Shaman got worried as the grin on Elysia's face scared Shaman a little as she was unsure what to come when it came to Elysia choosing clothes for her.
