Mikon~ has arrived!

One moment I'm trying my damn hardest to roll for Tamamo and the next thing I know I awaken in a strange forest, one that oddly enough seems like a peaceful one.

Yes, a peaceful one, if it wasn't for the sight of a rabbit snapping a tree in half with a kick while chasing down a poor Tanuki. And yes the Tanuki moves as fast as pikachu when high on ketchup except without all the lighting and stuff.

Over all a nice and exciting experience. That was a week ago.

So what have I been doing? Well for starters I might've panicked like a normal person, so after screaming my lungs out and crying, running away from a near death experience, getting traumatized I finally decided. 'You know what? Fuck this world, fuck whatever being that put me in this, I'm gonna survive like the coward I am!'

And that's how my adventure started…except without me having to explain how I slowly gain more experience in survival skills.

God bless humanity and their stubbornness to survive.

Did you know that raw meet is actually delicious? What? You mean it's disgusting for you? Well, your loss.

Taking a bite my ears twitch at the sound of branches being crushed.

Right I forgot to say, I have fox ears and a tail, did I also mention Im in a girls body? No? Well now you know.

Turning to look at the trespasser that dared to disturb my heavenly meal I find a Tanuki looking at me while I eat it's parent, or is it it's mate?

Dunno, I never studied Tanuki biology. Grabbing a sizable chunk of meat that's been drained of blood, I look at the Tanuki and he looks at the meat in my hands.

I stare at him and he stares at me, I throw him the meat and he quickly bites down on it.

And that's how I met my first friend in this world.

Another week has passed, and another week that I can proudly say, progress has been made! Why such happiness you ask? Well, like any isekai protagonist I have found civilization!!! That's right? I too am now part of society.

But first, am I actually allowed? What do I mean by that? Well just look at me, im naked! Naked without a single piece of cloth.

I only realized after having seen another person wearing clothes did it become apparent that I was showing my body to the world.

Strangely enough I didn't feel shame nor excitement. I think I need help in the emotional department.

Well, I'll steal some clothes, but what about my extra body parts? Are they allowed or are we discriminated.

If we are…."okay Tanuki, we are going back." I ain't sneaking into a place that has guards unless my sneak skill is high enough.

Just when I was about to turn around my ears twitch and I find myself looking at what seems to be bandits attacking a single person, now this is where the dude gets mugged and dies, but my instincts, which have helped me survive till now tell me it's a different story.

Choosing to observe I watch the bandit leader blabber on while his mooks say how he's in the Fighting Spirit Rank or something.

Wait….oh…oh! Oh! It's a cultivation world.

At that revelation I ignore the event and proceed to go back to my home with Tanuki at my side and think.

If I'm in a world that cultivates to immortality, Godhood or some shit like that, then what do I do?

"Tanuki, I, Tamamo, follower of Tamamo-no-Mae have a plan! We are gonna cultivate and I shall become the number one Mikon~ of this world" and once I do, all is right in this world!

And yes I just crowned myself as Tamamo in a Chinese setting.

Thinking back, how do I cultivate? Well I sat down, cross my legs and decided to start 'feeling' the…is it Qi? Mana? Life force?

Well I am feeling something. Deciding to draw upon it I start feeling something within me heat up as the surrounding 'Life' starts flowing through me and straight into my 'core'.

A core that's located somewhere deep within in my heart but at the same time not, deciding to do something new I start tugging at my 'core'. Little by little the 'Life' starts coming out and I slowly start circulating it before leaving it as is once it starts flowing with my blood, revitalizing my body to a new degree.

With a small twitch of my ears I slam my tail into the ground, creating a small crater once I move my tail away.

"Oh yea, I can understand the benefits of cultivating" looking at the small crater that I could never do with pure physical force until now left me feeling ecstatic and excited.

That is until my stomach rumbled for food. Right, biology.

Even in another world I can't escape it.

Rumble.

Shut up will you! Fuck sake at least let me enjoy my new found power.

And so me and Tanuki hunt down a couple of rabbits along with his own kind. Yes, Tanuki is a hardcore survivor. Even his own kind aren't spared from his wrath of gluttonous hunger.

Must be why we turn into friends so quickly. If I'm hungry then he's hungry, if I understand his pain then he too must understand mine.

Friend ship, it's so nice.

Hunting down prey was easy now that my body was strengthen to such degree that my hearing, eyesight, nose and other bodily attributes received a boost that makes me wonder how I lived in such poor body conditions.

Once me and Tanuki rounded them up, we cut off their skin, went to a nearby river, rinsed said skin and then we hanged them on the trees along with their bones, it may seem ominous but it does wonders considering it's basically us marking our territory.

Then we start eating it raw.

It took a while for me to eat it with blood but once I got it I never once stop. Why you ask? Well I'm thinking that this body I reincarnated into is affecting me, for one bathing in the sun can be considered a pastime for me, I'm more lazy and mischievous? I think, not sure but laziness is a definite.

I spend my days lazying around while playing with Tanuki.

…my personality hasn't changed that much huh? Wait, that's right! It's easier to kill things now…no…I got used to it as a necessity and now I hunt for fun.

Have I alway been like this? Does it matter if something like that changes? If I can kill and control myself then it's fine, so long as it doesn't kill me or fuck up something along the lines then these gradual changes are of no consequence to me.

Well, so long as I don't lose sight of my goal. Survival and cultivation are a means to an end. My End goal shall be…it was becoming the number one Mikon~ right?

It's a stupid goal but fuck it, I've got nothing to do and it might change in the future, since the future is never set in stone, unless it is…

You know what? I'll just enjoy life as I please, and like many other protagonist before me I have set my first flag for trouble. Joy.
