Reincarnated as a Fox to Bring Revolution

Seeing the look of joy and astonishment on Mom's face and knowing that it was me that caused that felt amazing. If I could, I would want to experience this every day, but I also knew that would not be a good thing, so I was fine with only having it every now and then.

 

The stun that I just gave her, though, did not last long, and soon, she was running up to me and trapping me in a hug before asking me to come in for breakfast.

 

After that, instead of the sword practice I had expected, I was brought back to the library, where Mom handed me a new blank notebook and flipped the chalkboard to the other side.

 

For the current moment, this side was empty with nothing on it, but that immediately changed when Mom wrote on the top of the board, 'Basics of spellcraft.'

 

Compared to the lesson I knew was coming later, I much preferred this one and could not wait for her to start. Something that Mom seemed to understand all too well as she did not even wait for me to get ready before beginning the class.

 

This meant that as the day passed, I got a double dose of classes that, for some reason, ended early. However, I soon found out why as I was dragged into the house and thrown into the bathroom, only for me to see Mom take out the accursed brush and enter behind me.

 

By the time I returned to the world, I was lying on Mom's lap on a mat at the edge of the shrine.

 

Opening my eyes proved to be a mistake, though, as I was then brought to the house for breakfast and then thrown into an even harsher combat lesson today. This then proceeded to the now normal history lesson at the end of the day, followed by dinner and then cultivation in front of the shrine.

 

The next day was then followed by the same schedule as the day before yesterday, which then turned into a repeating pattern for the next three days.

 

By the morning of the fourth day, I noticed that my cores were full, so I initiated the breakthrough while paying attention to the situation of both my fourth core and my tail simultaneously.

 

This time, I was able to understand that the connections and space that I saw were still in the process of forming. The open space, though was not actually in my tail but was actually in my fourth core, and the space I was seeing was only a representation of a space like that being developed in my core.

 

My observations ended there, though, as I felt like my body was being stuffed full and was trying to burst apart at the seams.

 

I was wondering why this was happening when I remembered one of the world's history lessons that Mom had been giving me. Which now that I thought about it was more like lessons on common knowledge that had a bit more of a focus on history than anything.

 

Besides that, the lesson that I was remembering stated that certain cultivation techniques can also increase a person's body cultivation at the same time. The problem with these techniques is that if the person cultivating them does not practice a body cultivation technique with it, the power will build up in their bodies before it bursts.

 

So, if this is anything like that I am going to need to get my hands on a body cultivation technique as soon as possible.

 

Thankfully, I already had a way to get such things even though they were not in the library, but it would also mean that I needed to use my opportunity to have all the techniques for a certain subject.

 

I was planning on using that for something else, but I now had no choice because if I wanted to continue cultivating, which I always did, even passively. I am definitely going to need to have a body cultivation technique so my body will not explode.

 

With that, I got up from the ground to make my way back to the house for breakfast when I noticed that everything seemed taller than it should be.

 

Quickly checking my status showed me why.

[Deageing Curse: A curse placed upon you by the immortal origin realm cultivator Raina Lockheart.]

{This curse makes it so that as you cultivate to higher realms, your age decreases until you reach a specified age or the one who placed it removes it.}

[The age specified is 12 years of age. Your current age is 14]

 

After seeing the updated status, I was not sure if I liked having agreed to the new lower limit of the curse. Then, when I considered that girls had an earlier growth spurt than boys, I realized that I might really not like what came in the next stage of the curses activation.

 

Swallowing any more complaints I had about this I tried to calm down and walk towards the house only to instantly trip and fall.

 

It seemed that in my frustration, I had forgotten about the fact that the dress I was wearing today did not have any size-adapting features, at least not ones that were strong enough to make this big of a change.

 

I was also able to notice because of this that my assets were also getting smaller faster than I thought they would.

 

Trying to think of why that would happen, I remembered that for women, the age of puberty is around ten to thirteen years old and could last for up to five years. So if that were right then I would already have started to go backwards through that.

 

Thankfully, the de-aging process happened all in one burst and not slowly over time, or I would probably not have even agreed to keep the curse at all.

 

Picking up the part of my dress, which was now dragging on the ground, I carefully make my way back to the house.

 

When I walked through the front door, I made my way towards my bedroom to change my clothes.

 

This was different then what I would normally do as I usually went to the dining room for breakfast instead.

 

So, as with any unusual actions a person takes, it was noticed immediately. Luckily, I was able to make it up the stairs before anyone came out of the dining room to see what was going on.

 

However, I still needed to quickly dart into my bedroom as I heard someone making their way up the stairs. From the gait of that person's walk, I could safely assume that it was Mom walking up the stairs, but I did not want to wait to find out.

 

It was far too embarrassing to be noticed by someone in this state, even under normal circumstances, so I quickly closed the door behind me and locked it.

 

The lock on the door was fairly simple in the way that you could open it with any object that was small and flat enough to fit in the keyhole, but it was also an interior lock that was only meant to signal privacy and not keep someone out.

 

That meant that when Mom stopped in front of my door and turned the handle only for it not to move she could have simply used her Qi to easily open the door. However, she instead knocked on the door and asked through it, "Are you alright?"

 

I did not want to tip her off that something had happened and that I was now younger once again so I quickly said, "Yeah, I'm fine."

 

It was only after my words, though, that I noticed a problem. My voice had risen a few octaves and did not have the same mature tone that it used to.

 

I was not the only one to notice this as I soon heard Mom's response from the door. "Are you sure that you are alright? You did not come to the dining room for breakfast and your voice doesn't sound right."

 

The situation at this point was not something I wanted to be in, but I still needed to respond to her, so I said while trying to modify my voice to how it used to be, "I'm perfectly fine. I just wanted to change my clothes before breakfast."

 

My attempt at modifying my voice was horrible, and it was easy to tell that something was wrong, but I thankfully heard from the door, "Alright then, I will be waiting for you in the dining room."

 

It was not much and only offered me some time before I had to face her, but at least I could change my clothes.
