Chapter 95 – ❤ Aiko’s Change

Aiko returned to Grandmaster, she was now used to being beaten up and she even put a few scratches on the stick, which greatly satisfied her.

'Hmpf! Look you are no longer invincible!' Aiko felt proud.

The Grandmaster smiled gently. She lowered her Sword Qi on the sword so that Aiko wouldn't be as demotivated. As such Aiko was able to scratch it.

'It shouldn't matter if I do this, at least it will get her motivated.' The Grandmaster thought, but she didn't expect to have such a substantial effect.

Aiko went into a frenzy, she no longer wanted to scratch it, but slice it in half. As such she was trying to aim into that same spot again and again.

'At first, she was getting stronger and stronger for no reason, but now she is refining the technique, which is more beneficial in the long run.' The Grandmaster praised Aiko in her mind.

...

Like this little less than half a year passed and there was a sudden change.

Aiko collapsed on the floor mid-fight.

The Grandmaster was mid-thrust but was able to stop due to her flexibility and years of experience.

'What in the world?' The Grandmaster tilted her head, she didn't understand what was happening and was unable to read Aiko's mind.

'It can't be 'that', right?' The Grandmaster was concerned and took Aiko away into her abode.

Along the way, she met up with the Jade Fox. For some reason, the Jade Fox was paralysed once she saw Aiko motionless. The Grandmaster didn't say anything before entering her room.

She had her own protective formations which she activated before walking out. Those formations wouldn't be able to stop her, but any other intruder would be at least slowed down, which would allow her to kill them.

"What happened?" Mei asked with a neutral expression, but her voice was dripping with worry.

"Nothing bad, you don't have to worry." The Grandmaster smiled, but she said this on purpose like this. This would make Mei restless and she would wait in front of her place before Aiko exited.

'You need to make up finally, while Aiko didn't seem to be affected she worried about you a lot, so it's only natural that you should worry about her. Aren't you two close?' The Grandmaster questioned Jade Fox in her mind. She didn't transmit those sentences and walked away, leaving the restless Mei behind.

...

A month passed. Mei was still waiting outside, waiting for the doors to open.

Meanwhile, Aiko finally woke up and bumped her head on the nearby shelf.

"Auch." She clutched her head.

Aiko was startled at her voice as it didn't feel as childish as before and what was more... she felt kind of strange...

Aiko stared blankly. 'Everything got upgraded and the bonuses from Species also doubled... I should Evolve my Shadow class for better bonuses.' Aiko thought. 'Even my Abilities and Skills... whoa my Elemental Affinities also got a boost!' Aiko was overjoyed as the #### on Soul Affinity changed.

She looked at her body, noticing that she was much bigger than the previous, but not that big.

'Perhaps...' Aiko narrowed her eyes. She used the [Pseudo-Human Body(Prototype)] to turn into human form.

"Whoa..." Aiko was left speechless as now she was much bigger!

Her body now reached around 105-110cm. Her hair and everything also got longer, her tail was too long still. She could wrap the tail around her and some, which meant that the tail was also above the meter length. She would have to measure it later so it wouldn't get cut on accident.

'They are also bigger.' Aiko cupped her own chest, it was no longer flat and she even had nipples now. 'Whoa, now it feels more like a Human body.' Aiko nodded to herself.

'I also don't feel like I'm that much weaker...'

'Damn... that's too much, isn't it?! Why does the Human form have such a high multiplier for Beauty and Luck?!' Aiko frowned, but her mind was oddly clear. It felt as if something inside her changed, for better or worse.

'My lifespan also skyrocketed... but doesn't that mean I will take longer to reach adulthood? Do my life stages count through the lifespan?' Aiko pondered.

'It's good that I have a longer lifespan.' That was the only good thing she thought about. 'What about the rest...'

[Little Princess][Raises your likeability with females and older members.][Your Beauty is increased by 10,000 and Beauty per Level by 500 with Luck by 100!]

[Mischievous Juvenile][You have talent in teasing people and/or making other people suffer through your mischief.][Greatly increase the chance of success when doing Mischievous things!][Possibility to raise affection or sharply decline affection, use with care!]

[Juve-barian][You have proven to be a ruthless Barbarian!][Your 'weapons' can be imbued with Qi! (It is automatic)][Your Strength is increased by 1,000, and Strength per Level by 50!]

'The Little Princess is a bit too much isn't it...?' Aiko frowned. 'I'm almost at the million mark, how do I reduce it?!' Aiko felt bitter, but her senses were sharp.

'Someone is waiting outside, so this can wait...' Aiko thought.

She wanted to step outside, but she was still butt naked. 'Right, the token.'

She pressed that Sect Token, but nothing happened.

'...' Aiko looked around, but there were no clean bed sheets or anything.

Aiko peeked outside, seeing that it was just restless Mei she sighed and then smirked. 'Should I surprise her?' She had a mischievous grin on her lips.

She busted the door wide open announcing her arrival. "Mei~!" She jumped at Mei almost immediately since she was close by.

Mei turned around restlessly only to see something that resembled Aiko, but much bigger flying at her.

For some reason, she didn't have the urge to dodge the flying Human Fox. She caught the slightly grown-up Aiko and stared at her.

"Mei~" Aiko rubbed her face on Mei's bosom and grinned.

Mei checked out Aiko's body, she knew that it was Aiko since there were still two- wait three Beast Cores?! Mei felt dizzy, but the only saving grace was that Aiko had smaller- Ahem.

Mei snapped out of it and pinched Aiko's cheek, which didn't have much baby fat. "Where are your clothes rascal?!" She reprimanded Aiko.

'It's a good thing that I'm the only one here, but I have to teach her something about manners since she would charm about any other Cultivator.' Mei thought.

"It's bwoken." Aiko slurred her speech as she was pinched.

"Broken?" Mei tilted her head.

"Yeah." Aiko nodded, she was still cute, but for some reason, there was this unknown urge to bully this cutie, much more than it had previously.

Aiko touched the Sect Token, but it didn't do anything. "See?"

Mei frowned. "Go inside the room, I will bring you some clothes." Mei commanded, but Aiko was still glued to her.

Mei's brows twitched.

"hehe, itty bitties~" Aiko was still rubbing her face on those peeks.

*Whack*

"Auch." Aiko clutched her head which was bonked by Mei.

"Hmpf!" Mei stormed away.

"Why have I never realised how soft those are..." Aiko was still dreaming about them.

"Well~ I should have plenty of time to enjoy them in the future, but I have to be covert... Auch. That really hurt." Aiko clutched her head again, in her Human form she might not be that weak, but she was still much weaker than Mei.

"She could hold back a bit..." Aiko rubbed her head going inside the room.
