“This reincarnation option might look like an easy choice, but there’s more to it than meets the eye, so we should think carefully. Let big bro analyze it for you...”
Just as You was about to analyze the reincarnation options that had popped up for Nai...
“Oh my god, isn’t it obvious? Big bro’s reincarnating first. Hehe.”
Nai raised a hand and tapped the second option: Black Fox.
Ding~ Reincarnate as a Black Fox? (Heh, this is pretty game-like. Confirm!)
“Hey, acting on impulse is the devil’s—”
Before You could finish, Nai had already completed the confirmation with her veteran left-and-right-hand controls. She’d been raring to go for ages...
Ding~ Constructing body... Entering hibernation shortly.
A long black strand coiled around Nai’s entire body. It passed through her tail and bound her limbs into an S-shape. The moment the black strand touched her fur, her body went limp. It wrapped around her whole head, too, leaving only a little fur and a pair of black fox ears drooping helplessly exposed.
“Hey, big bro... These black strands are making me... so sleepy... I wanna take a nap...”
After that weak little voice, Nai fell silent. You, standing nearby, shouted anxiously, but Nai couldn’t hear a thing. What happened next, though, left You stunned.
Nai’s body, wrapped in the black strands, began to change dramatically. The fur on her limbs first shed into glittering motes, and soft, pale skin began to grow where the fur had disappeared. Then her body slowly grew larger. As You looked at her wrapped-up head, thin black strands began slipping through gaps in the covering. They had to be hair—and she’d already grown the kind only humans had. Did that mean her transformation into a human-like form had succeeded?!
It looked like the transformation would take a while, so You lay down not far from Nai and kept a wary eye on their surroundings.
About half an hour later, the black strands wrapped around Nai began to fizzle and fade, eventually turning into a thin black undergarment.
“Huh? It’s over...”
Let’s go take a closer look.
“No way, reincarnation comes with clothes now? This is way more considerate than GE. Just think of all the money I spent on outfits when I reincarnated back then. Hehe... I wonder what my little sis looks like now.”
Watching his little sister finish reincarnating, You fixed his gaze on the motes of light still fading from her face. He had to admit, he was kind of looking forward to seeing what she’d look like.
“Hey, little sis. Wake up, wake up. Come on, let’s go fight a boss.”
“Aah~ Big bro, let me sleep a little longer... What! Fight a boss? Where?!”
A girl in thin black underwear sprang up from the stone path with a shout. Her half-open yellow-gray eyes stared ahead. The familiar room before her slowly blurred, turning into dark, rocky walls. Beside her, her big brother’s urging face gradually became that of a little white fox, staring at her blankly.
The girl raised a hand and rubbed her eyes.
“Ahh~ I just woke up... That felt so good. Big bro, were you calling me? Huh! My hands are back? And I have hair... Where did these clothes come from?”
Nai stared in disbelief at her soft, pale hands and tried clenching them. Then she touched her glossy black hair and the slight swell of her chest.
“Heh... hehehe... Hahaha... I really changed back~! (Even my bust is the same size... Tch~~)”
Nai was so excited that she had a smile on her face, and her fluffy black ears and long black tail were wagging like crazy. She didn’t even notice how adorable she looked.
“Ahem, little sis, check your stats first. (Holy crap, how is this possible? This adorable beastgirl is my little sister?!)”
Seeing what his little sister looked like now made You pretty happy, too. It meant he might have a chance to get his strong old body back. Just thinking about not having to be a fox cub anymore made him a little excited.
“Okay, big bro, but first...”
Nai bent down, reached out with both hands, and scooped up the totally bewildered You. Then she held him high in the air.
“Wow, I’ve wanted to hug you for so long, big bro! Wow, you’re so fluffy! Those ears, that tail! I’m so happy I could die!”
You was held in her arms, and the sweet scent of a girl drifted into his nose. Before he could react, his little sister was rubbing her face all over his, while her hands stroked his soft white tail.
“Hey, hey! Let go! Don’t touch my tail, it’s really sensitive! Ah—don’t you have one of your own?!”
You couldn’t break free, so all he could do was let his little sister have her way with him.
A few minutes later, she finally set You down and opened her status panel. By then, You had reached his limit and was sprawled on the ground.
