Legend of the Devil Fox
015
The power of No. 08, the last mana stone, has lifted me to a higher level of existence.
The same thing happened when I assimilated which stone No. 17. I went through the ranking process completely, while still gaining the corresponding magic power.
[City] lv40
[Ras: Fox Mistral Neige] [Greater Demon (High Rank)]
[Which points: 4000/4000] 1760↑

[Racial Skills: Whiteflame, limitbreak, HavenSlash]
[Human Form (Wonders of the World)]

[White flame]The white flame that freezes and burns the user's opponent can turn into a cold mist to attack the opponent .Usage: 100 mp~
Well. But basically, I gained a great deal of Mana and combat power.
However, the most drastic change came from the new power I gained from No. 08: [Materialization].
Before, my human form was just a thin layer of weightless paper. Now, I have obtained real flesh and blood, made from the matter of this world.
My body is handled a little differently than before. To be honest, I think a body with substance and weight is actually easier to use. I curled up and flexed my fingers, trying to feel my new self.
"…Anza? Is that you?" I heard Simp calling from somewhere, confused in his voice.
I grew up again. I see about 15 now, about 160 centimeters. Ten centimeters taller than when I first got this outfit, which means my belly button would peek out from under the tip of my blouse every time I moved, and my knee-length skirt is pretty much like a mini skirt now.
Children this age grow up so fast, they can get an adult face in just one year.Merca, looking at me in amazement, returned to herself when she heard Orto's speech. Just when he's going to talk …
*zig!*
My sword flew into the head of the spider in the corner of my view, foiling the plan that the spider was about to execute. The iron bar sank half way into his shell and broke.
So ordinary iron won't be able to withstand the spider carapace or my current strength.
Now, I just need to make a little fog to get a full view of the surroundings. I kept checking myself, while still keeping an eye on the carapace spider.
The spider also noticed me, noticing my changes. But not anymore; they started moving. I replied with a calm step forward.
Just as I passed by Orto, mouth still agape and standing still, I spoke.
“...iya I'm Anza.”
"Eh..." He was shocked by another surprise.
I jumped up, my steps stomping the ground sped up and brought me to a close distance with the spider in an instant. The alert spider immediately scattered and started firing magic bullets from all sides.
Mist gushed from me, weaved itself into a robe to hide me from sight, and surrounded the Spiders.
The range and thickness of my fog has increased by leaps and bounds. As soon as the fog disappeared, the spider beneath me was nothing more than a frozen statue, disappearing like a grain of light.
Two spiders instantly started shooting again, while the other two slid around me, swiping their claws in a pincer attack.
I stretched my mist cloak into a thin mist, sucking heat from the surroundings.
Everything that moves requires energy, whether it is a living being, a machine, or an avatar. And where there is kinetic energy, there is heat. Not like I really understand how it works.
Their movements quickly blunt. I locked one of them, froze its entire shell and crushed it with my claws.
The remaining three spiders decided to leave the close combat. They tried to escape from the fog, their weapons were still firing to suppress me.
But I don't really need the cold mist to slow them down. My speed doubled with an explosive boost in the combat power I gained.
So I did. Fortunately they did not shoot the fireball instead. I grabbed a large rock in the air and exerted all my strength to make a throwback. It didn't even barely hit any of them, but the sight was still enough to shock a spider into hesitation. I clung to him, froze, stabbed, drained his magic mana.
As my target fell, the other two suddenly stopped moving. They restarted a moment later, but this time, their movements were strange.
What the hell's going on? Do they change using AI controllers? I don't really understand their intentions. If all they want is a simple indiscriminate slaughter, then AI will probably work just fine. But using an army with a predictable attack pattern against me? They don't even need to worry.
I lured them out, dodged their attacks, then froze them directly with both hands. The last two spiders died without much fanfare.
“... Phew.”
The spider is not a problem. If anything, they caused more trouble for the Orto group than me.
Most of the participants died, and the rest on the dying could not fight. I guess it was for them, the event they planned couldn't possibly fail.
When I started getting closer. Some players were aware of their shock and prepared their weapons when they noticed my gaze. Orto and Maxim seemed to want to say something. Celine, who used to be very chatty when we talked about the Mana stone, now glared at me in silence. He looks frustrated.
... good, whatever. I don't have to be friends with them anyway. And it would be better for them if they also stayed away from the terrifying monsters.
If anything, I'm more curious about secret beta testers. Why are they here?
Did the company find a connection between me and the real-life body ? If so, then the time I have will quickly run out.
This deadline must remain in force.I will not give up. Never does.
I left the players behind me and headed for my final target: The World Tree.
“...I swear, I'll make him call me darling next time we meet!” Orto spoke from a distance
... Is he still talking about that? Not possible, not in a million years.

Earthier.
One day, on a popular video sharing site, a certain video was uploaded by a player of World of Yggdrasia, a VRMMORPG that was still in its infancy. That's very prudent.
A Fox beastman girl who looked to be around 15 years old. The value of the in-game reward for his capture is 5rb gold which is equivalent to 200rb USD
Snow-white fine hair, bright red eyes, charming tail fox ears, and a cute face. It doesn't take long for a video to reach a million views.
Footage showing a black spider was cut from the site soon after it was uploaded, for some reason, but the scene of its battle against the players is still intact. The spectators were not afraid of his atrocities occurring; if anything, it only caused his popularity to skyrocket. Both beta players and those waiting for the official release around the world are crazy about it. They call him 'Fluffy Fox'.
Another video uploaded by a player named Orto with the title “Collection of Glares and Roasts” also gets a very large number of views. More and more people expressed a desire to be insulted by the fox. Even rumors were born, that one would be blessed with luck if one met him in the game. Some already make fan-made model sculptures.
The only one who was unconscious was the fox itself.

The secret research center.
“... huh. Haha, AAAAHAHAHA! Jesus, what the fuck?! They were experimental, of course, but were destroyed just by a little girl ?! ” Vice Director Jhon chuckled, his eyes staring at the monitor.
His laughter shook Audrey's stomach. Still, he's talking. “...D-Vice Director?”
Even he could not predict this outcome. Avatars may be experimental models, but they have proven themselves to have the same power as modern light tanks. The girl must have had some problems at first, yet once she obtained the Mana stone, she finished off five experimental models in an instant.
Several drones currently chasing him have been shot down. His whereabouts are now unknown.
“The last two avatars got the data, right? Start upgrading military monster avatars with it right now! Stop the other unnecessary data collection, we only need to hunt the fox. Gosh, I can't wait to dissect that girl!” John commanded, sounding very optimistic.
Then the smile of the mad scientist turned to Audrey.
“Audrey, you're the best secretary ever! I can kiss you just for finding such an amazing tester for us! All right, I got another job for you. Check vital signs No. 13 at the collection facility. We will immediately corner the fox, so if the girl shows any reaction, let me know immediately. I'll dissect it myself!"
"…understood." said Audrey
Audrey thought she saw a glimpse of madness in her eyes. Still, he bowed, looking like a submissive subordinate.
Just a few days later, the development of a special military monster avatar to fight the Foxes was completed. Their designation is MO-03-B. Fifty Army soldiers participated in Operation: Fox hunt.(fox hunt).
