Another day like many others in the elder tales. The apocalypse as they called it had blown in and out of the rumors with many accepting it and coming to terms with it over time. Nisha from the begin on had not thought all too much about it, she just liked the feeling of the game and how it had become much less restricting from one day to the next with real life getting in between gaming sessions. Ah, she just had sat around for a day or two until hunger had forced her to take a bite out of the bland food everyone had been eating. though most people hated the food, Nisha was quite disinterested in food, since she was quite fixated on other parts of the game and as long as the virtual food gave her energy to go on and enough nutrients to do what she wanted... There was no reason why she had to look for other tastes, when the only taste she really wanted. Yes, that one taste on the tip of her tongue, the one she had nearly forgotten in real life, the taste of adventure and challenge. In her real life, she had gotten whatever she wanted, with little to no effort and her own body had only gotten her more, but here it counted what she did. She had taken a nice and slender body which could be seen as somewhat good looking, but nothing out of the ordinary.
The only thing she had really wanted and taken at creation was that foxtail, she had already felt it before from other foxtails and had fallen in love with the feeling. Even now, she was from time to time stroking over her tail which was wagging around if she wanted it or not, it was life breathing and yet very different. Pre apocalypse, she had not really cared much for it, but now it was one of her biggest points of joy in this world. She had started to occasionally consciously wag her tail and make it bend around her thin body as if to see if she could use it as a blanket. But it was so bushy and thick and hairy and unconsciously fell back down that it was not really a reliable warmth source or even that warm to begin with, even though it did warm up her body a little from where it was connected at her hip. She stretched and felt her tail stretching as well and getting a bit bushier in the process, like a cat´s tail when it gets anxious. Shaking her sleep off with some shrugging and slowly moving her shoulders up and down, she slowly felt like she could brave the day, the first one in a while, where she would go and beat some stuff up and maybe even level up in the process. Oh, and search for her brother she guessed. She had not spend too many thoughts about her brother since back then and still chuckled when she thought about how he had gotten trapped with what he would hate.
Chuckling, she left the place where she had slept. She had fallen asleep under the starry sky on the roof of a short building that looked like no one had lived inside of it for a few years and even before that only occasionally, roses were climbing over the walls and cracks had appeared here and there in the paint, the windows half fallen out of the frames. It had been nice that it had been a crystal clear night and there had been barely any sound, easing up the thinking process and making clear thoughts that much easier. Pondering about what she wanted to do, what she had to do and what she did not want to do. What she wanted to do was easy. Have as much fun as she could before someone found a way to leave and forced or made everyone leave this world. Nisha did not really like to think about it, since it also meant agreeing to the notion this dream like experience could be over at some point, but she was a realist when it came to problems and she knew that some people would definitely strive to find a way out of here and that people would leave at some point. Since making her new character, she had not looked for the people she had known and had also kind of forgotten most of their names, 'teehee', so she was off to a fresh start, just as she had wanted and maybe she had cleared her minds of names as such to prevent herself from trying to get items and becoming a general annoyance. What she had to do first was easy too, to get her character to a higher level, start having some fights with monsters and once a bit higher leveled with bosses and people too, yes, she planned to go there as well, either as a friendly sport or as a hobby of sorts. Maybe even get involved with stuff like events and guilds. Nisha usually hated to get involved with stuff, but in a game, events were the thing to do and she would hate herself if she saw some people running around with tons of event items while she did not know where they came from and knowing that she may never get that item at all. She had sighed and felt ill at ease about idling around like this for a while. There should have been tons of stuff going on and she had most likely missed some events regarding the sudden separation of theirs from thsi world and their virtual souls becoming stuck in the game. Nisha had laughed hard the first few moments after this happened, remembering all the games she had played with exactly this plot, but after finding out that she could die and revive, though she had not done so yet, she had felt a bit more relieved and felt that she could tackle this game anew right away. Only to get lured in by her tail and how she felt about the game. Oh and to find and annoy her brother should be something she should do soon-ish too.
As a side quest kind of thing while there was nothing else going on. She smirked and wondered how he felt about being imprisoned here. He should have some fun too, even though she had definitely given him the wrong character to do so. And then the last thing had come to her mind, the last topic on her list, that which she absolutely did not want to do. She had even sat up with her knees below her chin and her tail wound around her feet. Looking into the sea of light some paces off as well as the sea of stars far away in the digital sky. She knew she did not want to die, if possible, even though it would most likely happen some times as a result of her recklessness or trying to get involved with things and people. To not fall in with any people who were boring and play friends or house or guild with them and that she at no point would give up doing whatever she wanted or thought would be fun. No matter the cost or sacrifice she had to go through to accomplish or attain what she wanted. Even if she had to do what she did not want to do. It was a pretty easy concept and yet, she feared that she would have to break earlier with her do not want list to get what she wanted than she believed, due to her staying absent for a while, guilds should be out there already formed after the apocalypse and waiting for eager adventurers. But just as her mind was about to wander off into sleep mode and her eyelids were slowly closing down, she felt a surge of energy as she thought about beating up monster again, even more so with other players who were interesting. She had played a healer before and had hated it, now as a samurai, she would finally be able to beat up things close and get her own hands dirty. Her eyes had closed and as soon as she woken up, she had felt hairs in her mouth as she had nibbled on her tail. Phooing them out of her mouth with great fervor, since they tasted weird, she had rubbed her eyes and looked into the sun for a second too long, before nearly rolling off the roof from rubbing her eyes hastily, feeling as if they were burning.
Blinking the sun spots in her eyes away, she held onto a ledge and slowly let herself fall on her feet. Not exactly elegantly, but it was not too bad. Her joints barely creaked from the fall, remembering her that she had to go and train finally to get them going again and maybe even strengthen her whole body, if she really wanted to become a tank it would do her no good to have a body that could not keep up with what she wanted of it. And here she was, finishing up her morning routine and looking at her quite empty inventory, she had spend too much time doing nothing to expect her inventory to show anything else but a yawning abyss of emptiness. And yet, it was a sight she wanted to imprint into her mind to call upon at some point when she was feeling like she may not have accomplished anything in Log Horizon. Even if it was just her inventory filling up by one slot or item, maybe gaining a single coin to the few she had, anything would be better than what she had now. Finishing her morning routine, she quit the menu and wondered where to go and after playing eenie meenie miney for a few idle seconds in her mind, she decided to just head straight for the field stretching in front of her and wander in a little until she saw some enemies.

Soon enough, she reached a small field and thought again about how stupid it would be if things would not respawn periodically in a game, ressources would be sparse and the war and strife from it would take much fun away from the game concept, it was nice to know that in log horizon such a sparseness was not preeminent or even present. Off in the distance she saw someone killing something that looked like a snake, but then noticed it was just a stretched slime, slowly pulling itself back together. Some distance away from him something respawned, apparently he was doing training just like Nisha was going to do, but was of a much higher level, seeing as he was able to kill them faster than they respawned. She kinda wished she could annoy him into talking with her by killing some of his prey, but seeing how huge the field was and how many monsters were crawling up and down the grassy green slopes and sometimes stopped to eat some of the grass around. She also realized that before she would get in his way, she would have to be a few levels higher and stronger than she was yet, at least until she got some chain skills for her samurai class. Right now she only had so few attacks and skills and even less in the means of stat, which meant, that she would have to do something about that first. Looking around Nisha saw a situation she had wanted to try out for some time, actually there were many more favorable situations, but as a solo player, she wanted to try out being in a disadvantage for a while, that way she could see how well her tank class held up. Pulling out her sword with her left and a grimoire dangling from her side on a hook from her right, she took one of the boars as her first enemy, while she would do something about the other one standing close to it as soon as the battle would start. She was quite weak, but with their one meter distance from each other, it was doubtful that she would not pull both at the same time, even if she produced as much aggro as a my little pony soundtrack cd. But it was exactly what Nisha had in mind to try out some of her skills. She estimated a few hits for each boar, seeing as they were roughly the same level as her. Swinging her sword a little to get a feel for it, she had since the apocalypse not swung her sword once and it felt a little bit more real now, which made it a little bit more interesting still.
She smirked as she threw up her weapon and stepped back to see it fall and stick in the earth. Seems it was still sharp enough to cut, good. Getting the weapon back, she stepped a bit closer to the peacefully feeding animals, which looked menacing still to a level one player, she remembered. She sighed and got into her stance, only to let go of it again and wonder how she should jump into battle from now on, it had to be something that felt good. Something that got her going and made her feel like she was in battle, something that weighed something like a battle cry that shook her heart and soul... What the hell was she even thinking about, a frown had come to her face and she was scolding herself for putting more emphasis into something serious than having fun just beating the crap out of these monsters and raking in the stuff they would drop. She stepped closer still to the monster and saw how they slowly turned, but Nisha had already begun to use her grimoire, a small ball of energy, glowing in blue light, was slowly created and looked quite miniscule for a weapon, but it was an attack and due to her being a foxtail, it should at least have some effect even though she was not a sorcerer class, but a bona fide tank as a samurai. Why she could use this? Very easy, she was a scribe instead as a subclass, which meant, she could not only read grimoires and write quite pretty, but also use this grimoire, without penalties holding her back and it complimented her being a foxtail as well. The shot resulting looked like nothing special, but also kind of cool at that moment, since she was actually a class that had mostly physical attacks, so having something in her repertoire that helped her kill stuff was definitely nice to have around. Looking at the ball as it impacted in a blue spray, she went to ready herself for the boars that had now gone to lower their tusks threatingly, while racing at her, it was as if everything was going so much slower, as she felt the rush coming from her being in battle once more, finally, already. It was time to butt heads with boars.

Nisha was only facing one boar, as if the other one, though it looked just as threatening, was not even in her field of vision as it all happened, but her right hand, right after the magic shot had been glowing white for a while and just before they were in slashing range, a beam of light shot directly at the boar, she was not targeting. The other special skill she had gotten from a subclass. This time it was the exorcist one though. It had sounded cool and gave her a nice little nifty technique, with which she could hurt ghosts and stuff, which she did not really... liked, or rather was quite scared of since... since she could remember, she had no fear of darkness, but of ghosts and ghoststories. And then there was the secondary ability which came into effect now, aside from just getting away from what scared her. The light reached the boar and it immediately seemed to lose interest in it´s target, namely Nisha, it´s head veering off couse away from Nisha and stopping quite harshly in it´s tracks. Making her target, the other boar, the only threat for a short amount of time, while the other one was deaggroed. Nisha had waited long enough, time for the next rush, she thought and her frown from before, from thinking too much about serious stuff that did not fit into this world suddenly vanished and was replaced with a grin that went from ear to ear. Her heart and breath, which seemed to have stopped for a moment there suddenly burst into action, as she began to move her arm in a swinging motion while doing a little bull twirl, she had so often seen on the television, she must have looked like a little blade tornado as she turned. Nisha sliced into the head of the boar and felt how her sword went along it´s flank and stopped only short of it´s tail, crackling out of the digistructure. Nisha in the mean time had spun away from the charging boar, just like they always did with those silly little rags they held in front of bulls. What were those people called again, torre... Tole...? She could not remember and did not mind all too much, since her mind was cluttered with what to do now, so she kicked the after thought from her twirl out right away. She had chosen the site where the other boar was now looking at her in a kind of confused matter to spin toward, Nisha quickly stepped behind it to have something in between her and the charging boar. The important thing was to stop or slow down the charge a little so she could get a hit in easier than before.
And just as she had planned, the boar stopped the charge just a meter before it´s ally and slowed down trying to get around the obstacle posed by it´s peaceful ally. Nisha used the slowness of the trodding boar to poke it a bit with her sword and see it´s hp plummet slowly but surely. A samurai was not a damage per second or burst damage class after all, it was a tank and soloing with a tank needed a bit more strategy than, poke it, if it dies you are good, if not you are dead. A tank had to preserve it´s power and protect whoever was in their party, but also take care of themself, so that the healer could focus on the weak of health damage dealer. but sicne she was not in a party, but soloing, health would not come back to her anytime soon. With that in mind, she had to keep her health up as good as she could since she would not even restore much health inside of a battle and had to wait until after to see some heightened effect, even more so at her level. At least she had only to deal with one boar for now, or so she had thought as suddenly she felt a twitch of the boar beside her more than she saw it. Seems like her playtime with one boar was up. The real fight started now and would go on till the end, since the cooldown on her exorcist skill was too high to use it repeatedly. using the ball of magic she had conjured up again for a last attack before she had to jump back, she sent it at the boar she had now down to about half health. Just barely evading the tusk of the boar with the full health bar that seemed to have shook off it´s daze. It was going to be a long fight against these two with her level and yet she had already more fun than she had had in the last few days of just sitting around and kind of sulking about nothing in particular, but that her tail was too fluffy and that she had no idea where to start until a deadline came along she had set herself.

At least so far all her swings had been hits and all theirs miss due to Nisha´s impeccable logic and ability to trick the system. But now that they teamed up, to keep it up and stay full health would be more difficult even impossible, if Nisha could not play her cards right. She focused back on the fight, boar1 was down halfway and boar2 was still at full life, she had used one of the two active skills she could use and it was still in cooldown for a while. And her other skill, she did not want to use right away. It was a skill that gave her a one hit shield, but if she could keep it as a trump it would work better, since it did not really grant her any better combat abilities aside from the shield. And right now, she was glad she did not have to use that skill anyway. Even though she was wearing some starter armor befitting a tank, chainmail instead of plate though, since it was less restricting than plate and much less hard on her speed she needed as a samurai. So she could use her armor rating as well, seeing how at least boar1 was charging her now and boar2 was staying a bit back, she decided to go full in and try something crazy. Just because she felt like it and knew that if she ever wanted to try something and maybe look stupid, it was when she had a level one character or if no one was looking, since both of these had been fulfiled, try out time. Instead of dodging the boar1, she jumped over it, as if she was jumping over the back of someone or over those horseback things they used in gym class to jump over. Seeing as she was quite fit in the game at least, she estimated she could pull it off. And there she was in the air, her legs stretched to the front and her tail sliding over the face and back of the boar1. And then landing, a bit harder since she had to keep balance and make sure, she did not run into boar2, but she stumbled, swung her katana and shot a ball of magic behind her.
Her katana just barely scraped boar2 and did not even took a small bar of health away, while boar1 was hit right in the back with the magical projectile and it´s health bar dropped sharply below half. Not yet red, but at least enough to make Nisha feel accomplished about bringing it down to this point while not having lost health yet. Nisha used her fast stumble to quickly get to the back of boar2 and finally got a grip. But woe, due to her tail, her balance was way off and because her ears were so high up, everything sounded a little bit weirder as well, making sounds and distances blur a little. But now she slowly regained herself, just in time to see boar2 finishing it´s turning around and facing Nisha as well. But there was little time for her to evade or block, since her arms were flailing around a little to keep her standing up. And so, the tusk bit into her thigh deeply and sharply. Wincing with not real pain, but presumed digital pain, she stuck her katana into the head of the boar and saw how it´s health plummeted. After two such strikes, the boar suddenly turned, pulled it´s tusk out of her leg and ran toward it´s friend. Both now at around the same health. Most likely they would both charge as one next and Nisha did not see any possibility to escape and she did not feel like running anyway. Maybe it was time for her trump card after all, seeing how if she did not have a good armor rating for a level 1 and quite some health due to being a samurai would have meant something worse than just this much health. Her grandstanding might just have hurt her more, looking at her health, the tusk had taken a nice little chunk with it. A bit more than a quarter of it were missing and would be missed dearly. But she had no use for such thoughts, since she was boiling on the inside, just thinking that a low level monster had taken so much health was nothing to laugh at for her, but definitely something everyone else could have a nice laugh at, even more so if they knew she was not really new to the game. She readied herself for the next attack and collected herself a little with breathing slowly in and out and then awaited the two boars, with her right hand holding the book up and a small blue energy ball hovering over it already. Here they came charging.

Facing the two boars, she wondered what she should do if they would crash through her just like that, not even really notice her and send her flying. It was definitely not something she wanted to think about if she could choose, since it was definitely a possibility and an outcome she wanted to avoid if possible. But just imagining her body flying off into the distance and seeing all the monster below her would most likely be an interesting sight. Yes, Nisha had a weird view on some things and could even find humor in herself dying in a way that could be considered interesting or humorous. Well, only one way to make sure that her flying and turning into a twinkling star did not happen, use speed and power to overwhelm and maybe even defeat both monster at the same time. Most likely she needed two strikes from either grimoire or katana to finish either boar1 or boar2 off. Well, time to go for her next skill, activating it, she felt how lightning embraced her and slowly blanketed her whole body, fused with her even and made her faster. The name was some kind of foreign word, most likely lightning armor, or that was what Nisha would called it from now. It just felt like an armor or a second skin, even though it had also another effect aside from the armor. It made her faster for fifteen seconds, quite useful, but only if you know that the battle would be decided in those fifteen seconds. Because after that, she would have to wait thirty more seconds to use it again and since she only had this one skill from her samurai class, it would be a one shot, one way or another. But she did not plan to drag it out longer than those fifteen seconds, but with her level, it would be difficult to keep it lower than the max she guessed, even though she could just speed of afterwards to do something else. But seeing her skill, she wondered how good it would be against higher level monster, the armor was not that protective and the movement speed boost was nice, but all in all, she did not really see the capacity she could use it to for them. She knew how tough they got, but no fight was as exhausting as your first with a new character, even more so in a game that simulated reality as much as log horizon. Enemies always tended to be more difficult even in the beginning in those games to give the player a better feel and for them to try out many different things.
She breathed in and saw the two boars start their charge. But Nisha was ready for it, she would just wait for them here and take them by the tusks or however that saying went, now she was at least fast enough to get out of danger fast enough if the situation called for it. At least she felt like she was more into the battle now, immersed, the first few swings had been weirdly awkward for her. As if trying out an extra finger or extra appendages or just, who knows, maybe an extra ear or something. And even though she was still getting used to it and it slowly started to feel right, there was still a way to go and some more goals to reach. Looking back up at the boars, she started to move now. They were close enough and would not stop before their charge was through, again she saw herself high in the air. She had played football in middle school and had kinda liked the free way they played until tactics had come into it, but she really liked the maneuver that top players sometimes pulled off. Another thing she tried out, leaning left to trick the opponent into going to the left of her body and then lightning fast... or at least faster than normal, running right and flanking the two of them, while targeting boar1, bombarding it with a single blue magical bolt and a stretched out katana, deeply rooting itself into the beast and dragging itself with it as the boar fell to the ground and slid over the ground before exploding into dozens of coin and experience orbs. Nisha grinned at the sight and turned to see the boar2 who had run a half circle and was now coming at Nisha again. Time to really lay it on thick, Nisha thought, back to her having fun self and ran at the boar, thinking: 'let´s decide this with a stand-off'. Wondering how weird and stupid this showdown would look to someone else. But the other guy had left her field of vision and so far no one else had gotten on the field to train. If that was good or not would be a question for after Nisha was either sent flying or killed the boar. Two thirds were left on her fifteen seconds and Nisha knew she could not drag this on much longer. She began rushing at the enemy and stretched her katana in front of her own body, just like a tusk and conjured up a magic bolt in her right hand, hovering over her grimoire.

If she timed it right, she would be able to kill it before it could even scrape away the armor part of her skill and maybe already target the next monster. Though she had not had much time in between, she knew that there was at least some slimes waiting around and somewhere in the distance, she had seen another group of boars. But for now it was alla bout the boar right in front of her, since the so called apocalypse, everything had felt more real than before, just like now, just that right now, adrenaline was also shooting into her system and making her feel everything more strongly. Just like how the tip of the blade of her katana roughly pierced the forehead of the boar, the impact of the magic bullet was something she could not feel, but she definitely felt how the blade bent slightly and then stuck into the digital fragments of the boar, splitting them and taking the rest of the health of the boar. It was an exhiliarating feeling as she flew through the boar as it exploded into hundreds of things, coins, experience balls and just the exploding biits of the boar.
And there, just behind the boar, she saw it, just a few dozen feet off, a slime was slimeing around. Using the last few seconds of her movement boost, she sprinted over in full motion. Not stopping for anything, as she drew her sword in a circular motion through the slime in the second she reached it. Globs of slime flew everywhere. And Nisha enjoyed it quite a bit now that it finally turned into something that was more to her liking, before it had seemed like work and more like a tutorial to her. But now things seemed to flow pretty much into each other, slowly working itself into routine, making Nisha hope that she would level up soon and get new skills, because the two active ones she could use would get boring after a while, experimenting was not really fun if you only had two things to mix. Doing a backflip after hitting the slime, Nisha landed somewhat less gracefully on her hand and one knee.
She had imagined it differently in her mind and was now seeing the result of not planning it through, having put too much trust into her body in this world. Sure it would get stronger, but right now she should not do too many crazy over the top stuff. Spinning turning wheeling around, she saw the slime extend and rip off a little bit of her health, quite less than what the boar had done, most likely it had been of a higher level, but it did take some health away. Another unfortunate beginner mistake, she had done before as well. Actually, she should stop thinking like that, if she was going to be living in this body for a while. thinking about what she had done before would only bog her down and drag her with the memory, best give herself a fresh start and just do whatever nooby kind of stuff she wanted to do. Who knew how long she would be caught in this body, so she should at least give it as much of a chance than the real thing.

Sighing, Nisha took a step back to get away from the slimes attack and throw a magical bolt at it. It felt weird to know that she could attack at multiple ranges but also had quite some health, since she was in the tank class. But if she really wanted to solo most of the stuff she had in mind, she needed an all around ness anyway, some kind of attack that she could use on things that were just a little bit to tough or resistant to physical attacks. Like ghosts... A shiver ran down her spine as she thought about it and she wondered if it had been really a good idea to take exorcism class. Well, she had taken it because it would help her against what she feared most, but it would also mean that she was supposed to cope with her fear and also take out ghosts, right? Just thinking about it, she wondered if she should look for some kind of key or box in the options to hide her subclasses to her friend list. Though, then again, the skill she had gotten from it was very handy and she could see herself using it quite often to support and help a group or herself in tight situations, either to gain a few moments of respite to drink a potion or wait for a cooldown or just have a second to herself, but in the end, she knew she would have to go and do exorcist stuff.
The only downside of being caught in this body especially, since she did not plan to exchange classes any time soon, since it would take quite some immersion away, she was stuck with having to face them. Just from the momentary thinking about ghosts, she had now goosebumps all over her body or would have had, if her digital body would have been able to. Breathing in sharply, she calmed herself and readied her blade again, moving forward toward the slime, maneuvering the puddles of slime goo all around, that was looking like it would dissolve her flimsy shoes or boots or whatever they were supposed to be in the matter of seconds if she stepped into it. Her armor was after all just as shoddy as the rest of her equipment, if you could even call it that. Stabbing the slime from a somewhat nice distance, Nisha backed away right after to evade clumps of it spraying everywhere. It was already down to half health and so far had been much more boring and easier than getting the boars, at least it was slow and did not have as much attacking burst power. Maybe two or more stabs and magic bolts and it would be done with and Nisha could take on some more of them, at least it was mindless work and she could think and do some stuff in the meantime. Nisha just hoped that it would net her some nice experience and money while doing so. Stepping in to take a stab and shoot a bolt of magic, she got hit by some goo lying around and suffered some more damage, but in comparison to what the slime lost it was barely even on her radar. it seemed like she had really walked into a nice training field for people her level, even though it did not really feel all that challenging it was at least less boring, than looking how her tail slowly moved according to her thought and slowly brushed over things and felt all... weird while doing so, even though it had been pretty interesting when she had done it, now it was a very boring idea she had come up with and would not do again. Ever again.

Repeating steps one to something, Nisha finished off the slime and phewed. It was good, since she could use a quick little break, even though she had just done maybe two or three minutes of fighting, she felt exhausted alright. Her only way of training in the real world had been... Well, nothing really, she had just done some light exercises every day and had not mattered all too much about it otherwise. Sure,s he had always wanted to do more and had tried out many a things, but none of them had ever come close to feel interesting to her. Horse riding had been too shaky and very boring, sitting on a horse and watching it do everything was not very curious after all, and even if she had to control it around it was not a sport she had in mind when picking one of her favorites. Tennis was more interesting, but she hated the sportswear that seemed to be mandatory and how people grunted when they hit a ball, as if they could not just shut up about it. Too much running hurt her back, so most of those sports were out of the questions as well. Nisha in real life had always adored fight styles, but actually trying to learn one had not worked out as she had hoped since she did not have a knack for it in her. At least not when it came to the practical part, in her mind it always worked out the way she had wanted it to. So she had become stuck with volleyball and gymnastics and even though they were boring as watching paint dry on a television channel about growing grass, it was better than nothing. But now, she could finally live all of her fantasy out in this world.
Walking over to a tree, she climbed upuntil she hit a branch that looked like it could hold her and watched the sun rise a little. It was really a nice day, the wind had a gentle breeze and the sun was not shining too much, even though it may change over the course of the day. Nisha saw the boars respawning as well as the slime she had killed and finally decided to go and do stuff again. Slowly coming down from the tree, she nearly stepped on a slime that was flowing into her general direction for whatever ai reasons there may be. Quickly Nisha turned and tried to get away, but her tail got caught in the slime and aggroed it as well as inge her tail a little and take some of her lifepoints. She had mostly regenerated all of them with out of battle health regen, but it was still annoying that her tail had a separate hitbox. And that was the point where she found something out, just as she was getting annoyed about her tail it suddenly vanished as if it had never been there, as well as that her hair suddenly got longer. Quickly, she took a few more steps back and felt her hair as well as her head, it felt real and yet not really there. Like an illusion, but Nisha did remember as she had read teh race description for fox tail that they were supposed to be from japanese myths and hadn´t kitsune always been trickster in the stories? Well, this was quite interesting actually. It meant another possible way of annoying someone by swapping out like this. A smirk appeared on her face as she quickly dealt with the slime in front of her. It was really getting easier as she went along and with her finding out one thing after the next, it was no wonder she really started to like this body, it was more interesting than she could have imagined.

While finishing off slimes here and there, she played around a little with the macro to take on the form of a foxgirl and changing to a human form after. It was funny how she could still feel her tail and ears on her head while being transformed, even though they had no effect on the world anymore, maybe she should just always use her human form while in battle.Less hitboxes meant more chances. But then again, a little more challenge was what she wanted. Actually, now that she was thinking about it, some slime sprayed around as she struck one of the three in front of her looking not really invested in the fight, was there racism in the world of log horizon? Nisha could not really imagine it happening, but it was a certain thing that happened just like strife and war, humans could not jump out of their skin and being human also meant to be somewhat judgemental against people different from yourself. And even if some people said they were absolutely not racist, they would have another quirk somewhere which made them just as unlikeable as anyone else. In the end, humanity was just a huge mush of people. Thinking such heavy things, she let her blade come down again against another slime, which were now slowly surrounding her, firing off a bolt of magic at another, she walked slowly around positioning hits and dealing some damage right and left, her eyes looking somewhere far away and her mind wandering, searching for unexplored terrain. Just to bring down her sword once more and clear her eyes as she nearly slapped her forehead. Her brother, Nisha wondered what he was doing and where he was tumbling around, but for the live of herself, she could not think of the name of his character and it was not his real name. Nisha wondered if he had already died, maybe he had and she could laugh at him for it, it was just too hilarious how she had tricked him into taking a summoner.
Just remembering made Nisha snigger in delight at her brothers misfortune, as her tail popped into existence again. She could see him trying to poke things with a stick or something just to get some enjoyment out of it or trying to find humor in sending some low level monster at his enemies and letting it fight instead. Maybe it was really time to see what he was doing and if he was still around here or was moping somewhere and not doing anything, though Nisha could not imagine her big brother doing something like that. He was just as ressourceful as Nisha when it came to it and after all they were family, even though they did not look like it in the game. Bringing her sword down again and shooting some more magic bolts, she saw that due to her not paying attention, her health was down to half and she quickly finished off the slimes around her. Now that Nisha thought about it, she wondered if he would be mad about it, or just take it as he always did with his sisters jokes. Just this time it was something that would have some consequences for quite some time and even though she liked teasing and annoying people, she did not like to screw people over or someone being angry with her. Arara, that would be a hassle, Nisha thought and her will to look for her brother rapidly decreased again. She sighed as the last slime exploded into coins and stuff and sat down on the ground, with her arms around her knees and looking around, wondering if she should look around in the city for some kinda quest for now to get her mind off things. Well, she was indeed getting hungry, however that worked and since she did not bring any food with her, seeing how her inventory had been empty, she needed to head back to even get some. Well, time to pack up nothing and wade through all the goo that scattered the ground, hopefully without stepping into it again.
