《My Elemental Shifter Girlfriend》 Chapter 1: The MC appears What a wonderful world this is, of course if you do not mention all the wars, monsters that roam or the evil people that take advantage of other people, this world is very peaceful and beautiful. In the world of Heimurinn there are many races that count as a sentient being; like elves, dwarves and also one is of course the humans. A being that generally has the same looks and body types but with their appearance they differ slightly, mostly between western, southern and eastern humans. I am one of those humans, with an average look of a western human, about below average height, I would say my body is very toned with muscle but you would not see that with my clothes on. My light brown blonde hair I usually try to keep it backwards but it won¡ät stay down, you can see me trying to comb it backwards every time after I take a bath. My looks, that would say blonde hair, white or fair skin and blue eyes, is very common in the human Kingdom of Riki, where I was born, in the northwestern part of the human realm, that would mean if I was in another nation they would already know where I am from before I introduced myself. Being born in the village of Phorbiv located near the eastern edge of Riki that borders the forest of wood elves called Alfur Skogur, or For¨ºt des Elfes in Elvish, I grew up in Phorbiv with the guidance of my parents. With the former profession of adventurers, my parents teached me swordsmanship, from my mother I learned mostly offensive styles, on the other hand, my father teached me defensive styles and when I was old enough, I decided I would follow in my parents footsteps and become an adventurer. Life as an adventurer is really an amazing experience, together with my skills in the sword and my best friend, I met many people old and new, I have been to many places and learned new things also, like how different monsters behave or how to make a tent with only one cloth and one stick, brr what a cold night that was. My best friend is coincidently a wood elf I had met in the forest when I was a child and after that meeting, we became friends and we played many times together through our childhood. He is a boy in my age with the characteristic pointed ears of the elves and the wood elves dark brown hair and eyes. Like many (generally almost all) wood elves, he excels in archery and small amounts of nature magic. You could be reading stolen content. Head to Royal Road for the genuine story. Our adventure days once brought us to a¡­ Suddenly I got interrupted in my absent-mindly state, which was reminiscing in the past, by a sweet female voice that kept calling my nickname. The female that the voice belonged to was a girl in my age had light green hair that reached a little longer than her waist and the green eyes that screamed at me to follow. Between those eyes is a small nose that you just want it to make a cute sneeze, under it is her smiling mouth that suits her and the things that hold her hair back are a pair of pointed ears similar to an elf but much shorter, about the length of the authors thumb. (Author: Hey!). Oops, sorry, that¡¯s right you are not supposed to be in the story¡­ She has a body that says that it is in the middle of development, she had a fair sized bust that did not move much in her light blue laced rigged dress that swayed against the wind that showed slightly her thighs with a tint of light green for a moment. That girl happens to be my love and also my girlfriend. ¡°Shu~, Shu!¡± Called the green haired girl running towards me. When she arrived she took my hand and started to pull before I could say anything. ¡°Come, hurry, I found something interesting!¡± She said with her eyes beaming, almost literally, telling me to hurry and I decided to give in to the girl and follow her wherever she would take me. Author Input: Honestly when his girlfriend came in the picture I was very troubled and I couldn¡ät come up with the words, my mind almost went blank there¡­ but as you should have noticed this literally is the MCs own words when describing things. I had to look up names on dresses just to know what he wanted to describe and I still have no clue what is the difference between a laced dress and a laced rigged dress? I guess the rigged one is tighter at the waist? Whatever, yeah, I have also no clue why he mentioned me, maybe because when I was figuring out her ears l was looking at my thumb and compared her ears length to an elf¡äs ear length. Just to assure you who reads, I will not appear again in the story only here in my inputs. I hope you liked and enjoyed the first chapter on this story. Ps: If you have questions you maybe could get some answers next chapter. It will come right after this :). Hopefully. Chapter 2: The spring of my heart We arrived at the river near the village that our adventure group decided to stay at, to spend the night before we travel again towards the guild headquarters in the capital. At the river she let go of my hand, ¡°no¡± went quickly through my mind when that happened, she walked closer to the river hunched down and picked up something. When she turned around I saw in her hands she was holding a dark green tortoise with yellow and black lines that made many complex patterns on its shell. The size of the tortoise signified it was about a year old and that is if you do not count why it is in this river. Sure, a horseback travel along this river to the ocean is two and a half days away, but these tortoises have their habitat about two full months south, by boat, of where the river flows out. So call me surprised.At that point I said ¡°That¡¯s strange, these types of tortoises have never been recorded this far north. I wonder how it got here.¡± The girl nodded ¡°This poor thing is very far from home.¡± When I saw her face change from being happy to sad, I just could not stop my hand from patting her head. When I stroked through her green hair I mentioned ¡°There is probably an answer to this problem, but right now we will have to take it home someway, right?¡± When she heard this, her face immediately started to shine again, like a sun that started to climb the sky again after a night sleep. I needed only to lightly bend forward before I kissed her hairline. ¡°As I thought Aine is the cutest when she smiles, no matter what form you take.¡± At that remark the girl that I call Aine responded with a slight blush on her cheek ¡°You also say that I am the cutest when angry or embarrassed.¡± ¡°And that¡¯s what I mean whatever form you take¡± Is what I responded back. At that her already blushing cheeks became redder, I want to hug her. Oops that was close, would not want the poor tortoise be crushed between us. I took a closer look at the tortoise. Hmm, nope cannot figure it out, the gender that is, on the tortoise of course. ¡°Did you notice anything?¡± I paused before I would answer to her questioning look. ¡°No, it looks like it is absolutely healthy, no problems here. By the way, why were you here by the river? ¡± ¡°Oh, I thought that it would be nice to change near the river.¡± When she said that, something in my head clicked. ¡°Hehe, are you still going to change now?¡± When she heard my somewhat creepy laugh in the beginning, she started to pout with her adorable cheeks and stuttered. ¡°W-what d-do mean by that, you absolutely want to watch my other form more than this form surely!¡± After midway through the sentence her inferiority complex showed itself, what she feels towards herself, or rather at her other form. At that I carefully wrapped my arms around her, because a tortoise is still in her hands, and responded both gently and confident. ¡°You should know by now, no matter which of your forms you are, even if you turned into a troll, I will always love you because you are my heart and core.¡± After two and a half year together and she still does not acknowledge my love fully, I feel a little depressed but as long as I can be together with her, I do not mind what she thinks of me. Well maybe I get to see her transformation again as an apology, hehe. Not noticing my face change, probably, to a perverted smile, I could feel her head nod on my shoulder. At that I made my smile back to normal and slowly released her from my arms. I looked into her green eyes, the same green colour that is in her hair and if I looked around myself I would notice all around me the flowers before they blossom had the same green colour. It is a colour that tells me it is spring around me. She stretched out her hands for me to take the tortoise from her. ¡°This here is Shuyaku, be nice and stay in his hands while I change. Shu, you can call him Kilpi-Konna.¡± Find this and other great novels on the author''s preferred platform. Support original creators! ¡°How do you know it is a he?¡± I questioned, while I took the tortoise in my hand and started look for something distinctive. ¡°And why a so long name, wasn¡ät Kilpi enough?¡± ¡°Humph, both is a secret.¡± She tried to hold back a laugh but what came out sound more like a happy humph, well put aside her mysterious reasons, she reached the edge of the river and turned towards me smiling brightly. It was now her appearance started to change. The first change that I noticed was her feet¡¯s colour changed from a light green tone to a light blue tone and the change went up, all the way to her hairline where her green hair lost all the yellow in it and all that was left was a clear blue colour similar to the river behind her. I saw her eyes changed from the energetic sparkling green to the calm and relaxing sea blue. I also noted that her stature was different, of course I already knew before how much she changes between her forms, if her former self was like a somewhat younger girl in her growth spurt, this girl in front of me is my or maybe a little older than my age, that would say 19 years old (soon 20), with curves where men apparently want them to be. Just as a sidenote I don¡ät care much for appearance, except for my dream girl but more on that later, if they are sexy or cute that is just a plus for me. When I saw the last change with her ears that suddenly split three ways and they looked like something fishes have. Fins! That¡¯s what it is called. Now that her transformation was done, I noticed her dress was little tighter on her body, it feels like she flow towards me and when she reach me, I gave her back, umm, that¡¯s right Kilpi. In this form she even has the same height as me, well that just mean I can look into her endless sea that you find in her eyes without tilting my head. The girl before me right here is my girlfriends water form and even if her appearance and behavior have changed, I know that inside, she is still the same girl I talked to just a half minute ago. This young woman, Alkuaine Vaihtajan, is my Elemental Shifter girlfriend and her human boyfriend is a young man with the name of Shuyaku Nayak. That would be me. Author Input: Phew, finally done. I had trouble trying to figure out what she was going to pick up and maybe I regretted it a little because spelling tortoise is very annoying, thanks to copy paste everything went smoother:). Well the three coming chapters will be about her other forms and little more info what an Elemental Shifter is. Of course this will be pretty slow paced, even I think so¡­ Well you could say the fifth chapter is where the story will begin. Now those people that had questions from the former chapter and haven¡ät got their answer yet, you can ask in the comments I will answer as many as I can, and also if you notice something is wrong or don¡ät sound correct, that I maybe will need to correct, I will gladly look into it. I hoped you liked and enjoyed this second chapter and I hope you will continue to read this story. Chapter 3: The hard love Noticing the warm sun shine on my sleeping face, I open my eyes and see a chestnut coloured wooden ceiling. As I feel the cold presence coming from my left side, I shudder for a moment and turn my head towards it. Beside me I find an extremely cold but beautiful young woman, she is cold literally, just touching her skin feels like the cold but new fallen snow, that you can probably find outside right now. With her chiseled white face in profile I study the specimen, with a smile. Her long snow coloured hair that looks like if she stood up it would reach her waist, her long eyelashes is really noticeably in this angle. When I draw my eyes downwards, I see her high cheekbone, the nose as it points towards the ceiling and her slightly light pink mouth beneath it. Continuing to follow her frame downwards I notice two hills under the blanket, maybe noticing the stares, the cool beauty open her eyes. Turning her head she notice me, in those very light blue eyes with specks of white, you could almost see yourself in a blizzard when captivated by them. Just for a moment there, I forgot about myself. ¡°God morning, my snow princess.¡± ¡°Mmh¡± With a short reply and no change in her expression, she starts to climb out of the bed. With her silk white nightgown clinging on top of her bust, she walks towards the dressing screen. Man, even when there are not any changes in her face, I know she still blushes on the inside, I almost could not keep my hands from embracing her. Even in this form I just want to hug her all day long, especially now when it seems her skin is so cold that it looked like it would freeze but the sad truth is in this form she will never feel cold, maybe to warmth. ¡°Aine, do feel when it gets warmer in that form?¡± With a short moment of silence before she answers back. ¡°Beside big warm changes, one would be your embrace.¡± Wow, now she made me flabbergasted and I probably am blushing too. Damn girl, you should not make a boy come and assault you right now, with that cue I started to put clothes on me. Noticing again the shining sun through the windows, I see the snow covered village. As a fair amount of people traversing through the snow trying to get to work and the small children that play in it, it is a usual morning vision in small villages like this. Hearing a small sound in the room, I turn around and see a sight for sore eyes. Standing there in light brown leather shoulder pads that covers from her wrists up to her shoulder and then goes down again to meet on her back and strapped together below her bust, with a thick white cloth dress beneath it and some leather pants on her long legs. Getting closer to the chiseled white face of this girl, by stretching on my toes a little, my lips connect to her light pink cold lips. Feeling like my lips had frozen on hers, like when you lick on a cold metal when you are young, I managed to separate from hers. Been together a little more than a year and I see now why I had such problems when I confessed to her. She had back then just changed her form to this when I had gather my courage to ask, well with a determined mind and stubbornness, I managed to gain her affection even in this icy form, even though it took about a month... How did I know it was her when she had changed form? I will tell you that at a later time. If you encounter this narrative on Amazon, note that it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it.This girl here is an Elemental shifter, a sentient being that controls the elements with their body and mind. They are one of the best beings that can control elements, the only disadvantage they have is; they can only control one element at a time. To compensate it they go through all of their forms at least once in the time they call a year, in other words when they have gone through all of their forms, they count that the same way we humans count our age. I have under the year gather information regarding on her changes/forms and this is what I have collected so far. Alkuaine follows something I call a season cycle where you can know which of her forms she will have, often by noticing what time of the year it is, there is also some elemental forms that is excluded from the cycle. For example right now it is in the middle of the winter and she has her snow white cold form of the ice element as her present appearance and soon when the snow starts melting, she will transform herself into her form of the earth element. Her appearance and behavior change depending which form she has. Right now she is about a half head taller than me and almost literally an ice cold warrior princess, with firm muscles and a slim body that moves gracefully and controlled, and her earth form is like a steadfast exotic warrior from the south, well I think she is exotic maybe because I am from Riki, and if you touched her skin in either of both forms it would feel pretty hard but firm. Her earth form has a more robust build, and she is just below my height. Like the humans from the United Tribes of Eyvinmoerkin on the southern edge of the human realm whose features are dark brown, no matter where you look on their body, some even are so dark you could call them black. She has the same feature but with a cuter and smaller frame, no matter how you mention it, except for one area. Of course do not mention that I said that to her, her inferiority complex would kick in when mentioning of her smaller forms. Probably because I went silent and absent-mindly, which I find especially often in her presence, my girlfriend started to drag me by the collar downstairs to meet up with our comrades in the same adventure group. Author Input: When I find myself wondering how I will transcend to describing her earth form, I was pretty much at the end of my wits trying to figure it out. Well the result is what you just read, I also get concerned if the description of her is enough or lacking almost all the time when I write about her, because the story is like literally about her (all the time). As you should have noted in this chapter we have moved back in time, about a year. Hopefully I managed to present how different her behavior is between her forms. That¡¯s right if you had all of her forms on a line they would more or less look like sisters, with the exception how different their colours are and body sizes. Anyway thanks for reading and apparently you liked the story (intro) so far. Hope you enjoyed and liked this chapter too. Help?: Also I have problem picturing her eyes in her wood form, because either they should represent fruits or be brown like wood is, I have no clues guys, please if you want to help my mind to decide, I would be really happy to finally let this problem get out of my head. Chapter 4: The fast changes in affection A wind blowing. As two persons stands near the edge of a cliff, outside a cave, on top a mountain. They were looking at the sunrise, with the wind making their loose clothes and hair sway back and forth. The bigger figure was standing behind the smaller frame, locking his hands in front of the other figure. As the girl leaned her head on his chest, with the colour of grey with a green hue her hair got trapped between their bodies and stopped swaying with the wind. With a petit body of a girl before it will grow and turn her into a woman, was the girl of my life. I, the man behind her, started to notice she was beginning to get restless, because as a wind she never stays in one place and is almost always moving. Well we have been standing like this for about five minutes, waiting for the sun and now that it has showed itself, she wants to go to the next thing. It is not exactly her fault that the wind behaves like this, but that is the influence on her in this specific form. I moved my hands to her shoulders and turned her slowly to face me. With the sun behind her back making an aura around her, she turned her head around, looking up at me, what I noticed immediately was her serene skyblue eyes looking into mine, dragging me inside her sky that is filled with white clouds drifting past. As I manage to fly back to my own body, I lean forward hoping that our lips will touch each other and she responds back by placing her arms around my head bringing me closer. As a heritage from the elemental shifter race her appearance and behavior changes depending on which elemental her form takes after. Records and history have told that the first elemental shifters that was recognized as a sentient race still had the appearances as their closest cousins the elemental golems, well before that they were not even recognized separately and both were called elementals, but when the first elemental shifter made contact with the ruler of wood elves at that time they became recognized both separately and as a sentient being. As they can live very long lives there have not been any who could correctly record how long they live, but it has been proven that they can die in two ways. One through complete mana depletion, that is very hard because everything has mana inside no matter if it can be controlled or not and if anything lost all of its mana it will die, the only elemental shifter that¡¯s recorded by this death was the one who made the first contact with the wood elf ruler. The second reason is by exposing it extremely towards the conflicting element that would say, when an elemental shifter has the form of ice and is subjected to a very high temperature or if they are in their fire form inside a body of water. Through centuries they have manage to change their appearance to look like the more civilized races that would say humans, the elfkins, dwarfs, the waterkins etcetera, but their behavior and disadvantage, at said elemental, have not changed. As a living example of that, I have been exposed to it many times. You might be reading a pirated copy. Look for the official release to support the author. This happened almost a year ago. We had at that time almost been in a relationship for a year and I had asked her if we could spend the night together on the day we first met as commemorating it and she accepted, in her magic form, more on that form later. Then she had followed her ¡°cycle¡± and changed her form to the thunder element the next day. Just to make it clear in this form, her frame is the same size as her wind form. Me being an idiot in a moment on that day decided to compliment her small frame in this form by saying. ¡°What do you say about sleeping with me tonight too?¡± I knew that she was very embarrassed when the night was mentioned and I decided to add. ¡°and this time I will be able to embrace your whole body.¡± If I had not said that last thing I would have slept in a warm bed together with her, instead of laying on hard ground outside of the inn, literally toasted. Well even at that moment when I had said that I knew, I will regret this. By turning around as fast as lighting she faced me and her fist moving towards my stomach, I manage to look into her raging yellow eyes half-covered with her periwinkle coloured hair that emitted a little, before I felt all the electricity go through my body making it collapse on the spot and small spasm surfaced here and there, while my conscience disappeared slowly. Next morning outside the inn with our adventuring group of comrades waking me up was not one of my best moments in my life. Noticing the sun has risen a little more, we could hear my best friend Tir voice coming from the cave behind us saying that they are done and we can now return. Reminding me Aine manage to slip through my grasp and started to walk relaxed with a little laid-back attitude towards the slope that descends the mountain. Author Input: A short chapter appeared. Well when I wrote the last word I felt satisfied and I had started on this chapter right after I had posted the third chapter, but I got stuck when writing on the first (is it called?) paragraph just because I couldn¡ät make up my mind about her eyes in her wood form and yesterday I flipped a coin to decide. Now that is settled I can write next chapter also :). I have some sad news, I¡äm sorry, I will of course post next chapter and hopefully the 6th chapter by the end of next week, but the sad news is I don¡ät know if I will be able to post after next week because I will live with my relatives and work all through summer, so maybe if I can find time to and in some way post chapters during summer will be considered lucky. Well either way I hope you liked/enjoyed this chapter also. Chapter 5: The warm feelings blossom and The mysterious mood elementals Seeing Kilpi move towards the waves on the beach, I have the feeling that now would be a good time to finally say it, the moment that I have been waiting for some time now. Reacting to my stares, the girl in front of me turns her head a little to face me. Looking with her fiery orange-red eyes she sees that there is something I want to say. Suddenly a wind came from the open ocean and pulled her waist long scarlet red hair towards me just enough to reach me. The salty ocean smell mixed together with the sweet spicy fragrance of tangerine and chili, reaching my nose at the same time. I closed my eyes to grasp my surroundings and muster my strength. ¡°This is it¡±. I open my eyes and I see the girl has also resolved herself. I crouch down my left knee on the warm sand, look up at her and pull forward a mana tool in the form of a silver-white ring. Her eyes show her surprise look, and before she manages to control herself, I say. ¡°Aine, our relationship is now more than two and a half years and I know, that you know, I love you even deeper than the deepest of my core. So, I ask you, do you love me enough to spend the rest of my life, together with me as my wife?¡± She does not answer immediately and turn her head slightly to make it seem she will find the answer somewhere in the jungle behind me. As the silence is growing the more anguish I am feeling. I know that it has not even gone a second, but in some way, I want to know right now. I started to think what went wrong or does she not love me after all, in my moment of panic, I happened to blurt out. ¡°If you want time to-¡± Interrupted by the small sound of the girl, she whispered. ¡°Yes.¡± Standing up not believing my ears, I try to confirm by looking at her face. Even with her skin being dark redbrown, you can clearly see her blushing red cheeks trying to hide behind the fluttering scarlet hair. While her head keeps nodding and her voice getting stronger and louder. ¡°Yes, yes, yes, yes! How many times do I haft to say it?¡± Her question stupefied me, apparently my face could not keep up with her answer and that¡¯s why she kept saying yes and started to become angry. Before I know it my body throws itself against hers, and with my hands connecting behind her back I pull her body against mine almost as hard as I can. As her anger resigning, she put her hands behind me and pushes me even closer. We stand like that for almost an eternity, or at least it felt liked it, and when we separate, we awkwardly turn our heads towards the sea and start waving with one of our hands to wave goodbye to little Kilpi the tortoise, but our other hands is connected with each other in an embrace. 2 months later. Finally back to the capital in the Kingdom of Sudvur. During the journey, I and Aine never separated, although we were stuck on a boat almost all the time, she had also changed from her fire form to her wooden form during the journey. This form is her biggest, not in that way! With her body that takes second place in areas all over her body, compared to her other forms, with only her length as a shared second place with her ice form, you will understand what I mean by biggest. As we get off the boat, holding hands and one of her fingers is now occupied by a silver-white ring, with her waist long dark leafgreen hair moves together with the incoming ocean winds that keeps getting in front of her face. As I noticed this I helped by stroking her hair behind her elf-like ears with my available hand, making a charming smile back towards me for my help. Getting to the piers end, I made us stop near the entrance to the capital and grabbed her other hand. I had made the resolve to ask the question that I found probably harder to ask than my proposal. Taking one last big breath before I asked. ¡°I know this will be a very hard favor to grant, but I really want to marry all of you, so when there is one form you have never let me be near once, except for the first time we met, that¡¯s why I now ask of you to have that form during the wedding day.¡± Pleading into her distinctive heterochromatic eyes, with her left eye being a colour of a ripe red apple and her right eye with the colour of peaches, they in some way contrast to her dark barkbrown skin making them stand out more. I know that what I asked has in some way gotten to the taboo area in our relationship and by confirming that is her reaction. You could see that in her face how much she was against it and wanted to refuse as soon she knew what my question meant. Ok, maybe some explanation is in order first. Beside her ¡°cycle¡± elements as I call them, there exist more elements that she can take the form of that she does not need to follow the ¡°cycle¡± with. The elemental shifters do not only differ in their ¡°humanoid¡± forms appearance, but they also have different specific and amount of elements, for example Aine is one of the few that have over ten elemental forms, with her nature element power manifest in two different forms making her have 11 elemental forms. Beside she also can take the rare form of the magic element and according to her it is only hereditary. In this form she becomes the same height as me and her hair and eyes get the colour of amethysts, also this form gives her ears the same shape and size as the elves and a fair skin-colour on her body with an amethyst coloured crystal in the middle of her forehead. Still that is one of her ¡°mood¡± elementals, what I call these forms because she can turn into them anytime when she wants, another is her metal form. This is her tallest form by a small margin to the next tallest forms, with a grey-silver hair that are like needles on the hair end, it is because her hair in this form is composed of steel. With a body more like a warrior, she still does have some womanly charms excluding her chest area which is not completely flat, she has a light skin tone with a tint of grey and possess the hard skin like her earth and ice form. You would notice her resolute in her grey-silver coloured eyes that she is ready to strike in case of any threats and her behavior in her magic form being more composed and calculating. Well her third mood elemental form was the one I met first and this form also happens to look like the girl of my dreams. I was lost and separated from my group in the middle of a dungeon, this was one of the worst things that can happen during a dungeon quest and the worst would be stumbling in on the dungeon leader while being naked and unprepared for it. Through my lost wandering I found a small room filled with broken furniture, in a quick glance I saw something shine in the middle of the mess of furniture, while I hesitated, I tried to figure out if there could be traps in the mess and decided there could not be any traps inside the mess. Although I should have thought about the mess as a whole, maybe being the trap itself. When I reached the middle of the room where I saw it had shone, I saw a sword standing there with its tip of the blade being stuck firmly in the floor. It was a beautiful curved blade, which is commonly used in the eastern human realm, it had a pattern of flower petals going along the blade. I became intrigued by it and took the light pink coloured hilt and pulled it out of the floor, as I did the floor started to shine activating a mana circle. I jumped toward the room¡äs entrance, where I had entered, but before I manage to escape through the open entrance, the mana circle activated. It was like all my energy and power just got sucked out of me and I collapsed on the floor, while I tried to move and speak, I only manage to make feeble sound with my throat. I could not perceive the time so I did not know how long I been like this, I could only feel my last life energy being drained from me. How I wished someone would come and save this foolish person, even better if it was my adventure group but as a rule if separated everyone should as fast as possible get to the gathering spot, the spot that was agreed beforehand. As my conscience started to fade also, I made a last hopeful wish that I would survive¡­ and there she was, she looked exactly like the angel of my dreams, with a long darker shade of purple hair and darker tanned skin colour, she said something and her hand came closer. Believing that the angel would take me to the afterlife I tried to reach her hand but my body did not listen, thinking that my body tried to keep me away from my angel, I miraculous found some energy in the body, I then gathered it all subconsciously in my arm trying to reach her hand. If you stumble upon this tale on Amazon, it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it. Without knowing why the bed was so hard, I opened my eyes to see the rock ceiling of a dungeon, getting even more confused I tried to recall the most recent memory I had. Remembering that we were doing a dungeon quest and we got separated, then I remembered the trap and my dream girl came and saved me, at that I tried to get up but my body did not move on bit. Suddenly a woman¡äs voice entered my ears. ¡°Your body won¡ät respond for a quite some time, it is trying to gather and produce back your life energy.¡± At least managing to turn my eyes I see a purple silhouette in the corner of my eye, trying to move my mouth to ask who she was failed immediately with only making unrecognizing noise with my throat. ¡°Don¡ät do anything.¡± She responded to my groan. Turning around she started to get closer with something in her hands, as I got surprised by that she was really the dream girl that had reached out her hand, she sat beside me and gently lifted my head to pour what contained in the small bowl she held. ¡°Here drink this water with herbs.¡± While feeling the water run down my throat without any hindering, I looked at her face, by thinking I must be dreaming, she was identical to the girl I had dreams about, this was to surreal. Noticing my stare her eyes focused on mine, being entranced by the dark green eyes with some specks of lighter shades in them, I could not leave my sight from them. When she noticed that she had given me all of the water, she put my head down again. As I fell into slumber when she stood up and walked away from me. When I finally manage to move my body like normal, I pushed up myself and looked toward the woman who was sitting on a rock, I picked up the curved sword, that had become the reason all this happened, and walked towards her. Turning her head to face me she notices the sword laying on my hands, I kneeled and tried to be as humble as possible while presenting her the sword. ¡°I can¡ät express how grateful I am for saving me and taking care of me, that¡äs why you can have the sword as a gift as my thanks.¡± With a little raspy voice I manage to say all that, while she showed a complicated expression whether she should accept or not and to make my point across I said as steadfast as I could. ¡°Please!¡± With little choice she nodded and accepted the sword, noticing that she had gloves on her hands, we both stood up. I observed that she was a little taller than me when we stood next to each other. We had agreed that we would leave the dungeon together to be on the safe side. Well we soon found the exit and we parted ways. Or that was how it was supposed to happened, because instead of parting from each other I decided to follow her in the shadows. After having shadowing her for a week, sometimes I lost her but I in some lucky way I manage to find her shortly after, and this time she tried to really shake me off. Well I lost her when she left the village she was staying at, so I started to walk towards the nearest forest to hunt because I thought that I had lost her for good this time. To my surprise when I got close to a glade I saw her stand on the opposite side of it while standing still. I soon saw something amazing, she changed completely to a different person that had waist long snow white hair instead of her former dark purple hair and she also became taller. That moment became the biggest turning point in my life because of what I had observed, it made me determined that this woman is the love of my life. Back to the present I intended to use the trick again. By showing my determined mind I used a steadfast voice, noticing my eyes she knew what I was going to say. ¡°Please!¡± Seeing that her mind was wavering but not nearly enough, I added. ¡°You only need to be in that form for the ceremony, you won¡ät need to be in that form longer than that.¡± Watching her last defenses shatter because she knew I will be stubborn till she will agree, she caves in and nods to accept my suggesting. Author Input: Good day to you all, after have read it couple of times now I have made some word additions and subtracting. If you remembered the second chapter, this here is the continuation from there and now the story will progress forward instead of staying in the past. In the middle of writing this I noticed that I had never mentioned her hair being straight and as a sidenote if you haven¡ät catch up that her hair is always little longer than her waist in all her forms. Well when I began to write this story I had decided that she would possess all of the elements in that world, but I changed it while writing this chapter that her elements wasn¡¯t all of them and that she had a high amount of forms instead, I also decided that an average elemental shifter has about 6-8 forms. There were two more things that changed while I wrote this chapter; first was the sword he gave her, I was originally thinking to give her that sword later as a wedding gift, but apparently I used it to become the reason that they meet. The second is that I¡äm withholding the information of the form that looks like his dream girl, I had originally planned to give you that info during this chapter but the important information, that would say the elemental and his relationship with it during the two years they been together, disappeared during me writing this, maybe I was too tired to mention it. Well instead it becomes more like a cliffhanger(?) or something in that style. Now before this input becomes longer than my chapter, what do you think about him being stubborn about things she doesn¡¯t want to do and is there some more elements that she doesn¡¯t have that you wanted her to have, ps. light and darkness doesn¡¯t count in this world as an element. Hope you enjoyed/liked this chapter also and if you remember my chapter four¡äs input I will post chapter six next week before I move to my relatives. Chapter 6: The double date The big day is getting closer, the wedding day. Well before it arrives we decided to take easy and relaxing requests from the adventure guild and this time we are going together with Tir and his girlfriend. You have not forgotten Tir Alarc right? my wood elf best/childhood friend remember, well he had asked a dark elf woman, that had joined our adventure group last year, to go on a date with him and as to help him we turned an easy dungeon quest into a double date. I and Aine were waiting on the gathering spot that we had agreed on, she wore a purple dress that magicians usually are wearing, soon we saw the two silhouettes in the distance walking out of the forest and you could see that one was talking to the other. The one that kept talking was a male that was in his early twenties, he had a tousled, very, dark brown chin length hair that hang loose around his head with his elven long ears holding some of it behind. With a slim, athletic body with fair skin he was little shorter than the woman next to him. The woman, who looked to be in her middle twenties in human standards, has a flowing silver hair that reach down to her shoulder blades and with the skin colour being dark grey with a tone of blue she had also a slim and athletic body. While they got closer Tir was still looking at her face, with his dark brown eyes and was talking about something I could not discern what it was about. When they were close enough, he finally noticed that her black eyes were looking at me and Aine, he turned his head and started to wave towards us. ¡°Hello, Shu and Aine, thanks for offering this double date.¡± ¡°No problem, we are your friends so of course we would help both of you.¡± By reminding them we are their friends and if they were in problem we would always offer help, like I think they would do the same to us. To make us start moving towards the dungeon, the dark elf named Lune Brillante said with a serious tone. ¡°Let¡¯s go and clear this dungeon quest¡± What the girls do not know is that when our adventure group still only consisted of three persons me, my friend and our third group member, who is male by the way, we did this dungeon quest and after completing the quest we found there was a romantic place innermost of the dungeon and we will use that today as a dating place. Well the only monsters that infest this dungeon are spiders and bull moths, which are moths that are big as a grown man. After have entered the dungeon I noticed that I in some way did not fit in the appearance within the group, because Aine was in her magic form which also gives her the symbolic long ears of elves so I was the only one who did not have any ears that tilts backwards out from the head. Suddenly Aine asked me because what I discovered changed my expression. ¡°Is everything alright Shu?¡± ¡°Yup, I only remembered something that isn¡¯t important.¡± As I answered her concern, I felt her hand release the tension in it. On her finger is the mana tool, I gave her when I proposed, which has shrunken down to fit on her smaller finger in this form than her wood form. When I requested it to be made, I also asked to give it some extra functions, one be able to change size to fit the wearer, another to know where a specific beings core is located, mine, and it can also only be worn by one person. Most mana tools is made by a compound of silver and mithril usual called manite or mana metal, as its properties are able to conduct the mana easy through it and that is why it can be controlled easily with mana when making tools, but it is also very durable maybe not as good as mithril though. Hearing the hiss of a spider ahead of us, we take our stances and brandish our weapons. I use a double-edged longsword to fight, but the others in this group use different weapons. Tir is our archer, as he uses bow and arrow, but he also has some knowledge in nature magic that he use when it is needed, while Lune unsheathes her two daggers that are strapped on each side of her hip and run to the side or to the back of the enemies and stab them with her daggers. Aine has always almost her sword with her that I had given her when we first met, but most of her forms are more like a mage than a warrior and because of her race she also does not need a medium to make it easier to channel her mana to the element, although those forms that fights like a warrior then she will use the sword. The element of magic is very special, not only is it hereditary for the Elemental Shifters, because what it is, is the pure mana control in physical form, that would say it is purely mana that take shape. So you either need to be able to only manipulate the mana without to disturb other elements or have so much mana that it would not be disturbed while gathering it. Enjoying the story? Show your support by reading it on the official site. With me in the forefront while Lune being close to me for assisting and Aine some steps behind that propels mana crystals against the enemies in front of me and arrows that sweeps to the enemies further back that were shot by Tir, is the formation we used throughout the dungeon and reached the innermost part of the dungeon pretty fast. Me and Tir before we entered the room/cave smirked at each other, while thinking what expressions they would make. When we two entered a small opening hidden in the dungeon wall, they followed after and when we got exposed to the beauty, even as the second time, was breathtaking. Inside were there a large field with flowers in every colour you could imagine and clear blue lake surrounded by the field, a small faint light that reminded of the moonlight, although it is day time and there were a ceiling, lit in this place. To traverse around the lake would take about a quarter of a day while going from one end of the field to the other side¡äs end would almost take a full day. I could hear the staggering noises the two made behind us, snapping out of my astonishment I make a small push with my elbow against Tir, snapping him out of it also. Then I turn around and say. ¡°What do our ladies say that we take our date and picnic here? Would you have any objections?¡± Both had not completely composed themselves and could only shake their head as they had no objections. This must have been the first time I have seen this expression on their faces. After having composed ourselves we moved to the edge of the lake and settled down on the flower-covered ground. We chatted among ourselves a little while eating the picnic and absorbing the view around us. We picked some flowers to make wreaths of flowers with all of the rainbows colours. You could hear Tir talking to Lune about this place beside us and I had curled up together with Aine with flowers on our heads. We had apparently underestimated how big of an impact this place would give, because both women said this was the most beautiful place they had ever seen in their life and I would almost agree on that. Because I know something more beautiful and it is in my arms right now, looking at the same scenery as me. Author Input: Well I finished this in the middle of the night and here are some info regarding some things. First is that request in the story are more or less quests for adventurers and dungeon quest is conquering of a dungeon. Second is that magic is what we would call arcane magic, that would say controlling only mana and you can replace the word magic to arcane during the last two chapters, if you didn¡ät understand his/mine explanation during the chapter. Now we have arrived to the point were this is the promised chapter I would post before going to my relatives, so if I¡äm lucky I maybe be able to post a chapter during summer but the odds are very low, well after summer I will begin writing/posting this story again and I hope you will look forward to it. I hope you enjoyed/liked this chapter and you to have a really good summer.
