Fenrir's Journey : I Shall Devour The Heavens! 29 Observation

Now that she had a.s.sumed a human form, Fenrir moved on to the next step of the plan she had formed. She wanted to be able to obtain information from one of the human Cities but, learning her lesson previously, Fenrir wanted to first observe how other people acted. Even if she looked human, people might think she is strange if her behavior didn't meet their expectations. Thus, in order to complete her disguise, Fenrir began skulking around the outskirts of the City she had located and began secretly following those that wandered outside its tall walls.

Since she needed to know how to act like a girl, most of the people Fenrir followed were groups of women that would often head off into the forest to hunt monsters. Fenrir had noticed that there were very different types of people in the world, though it was the same in her previous one. Just as there had been Adventurers, Merchants, Business Owners, and Civilians in her previous world, Fenrir noticed this one had Cultivators, Mercenaries, Merchants, and Civilians. There were various other businesses as well, but Fenrir noticed they were generally owned and operated by Cultivators and Merchants, many wearing the same kind of clothing.

That was another thing Fenrir had noticed through her observation, that people generally wore clothing that designated their profession. Male Cultivators generally wore neat and stylish robes that made them look something feminine and girly, at least in Fenrir's opinion. Some of them even wore makeup on their faces to give themselves the appearance of fair skin, even though they tried to act prideful and arrogant. As for the females, Fenrir noticed that there were only a few ways in which the girls styled their hair, even if they were Cultivators. The way they dressed was also very similar, though the differences between Civilians and Cultivators were very easily seen.

Civilian women would often wear linen robes, somewhat similar to the clothing from the Far East, but with a slightly different aesthetic. Their hairstyles were usually neatly arranged into a bun, with trimmed bangs and long fringe locks framing their faces. Very few women ever wore their hair down, unless they were from one of the various 'Sects' Fenrir had come to learn about. These women usually let their hair grow freely down their backs and, though they would style it into ornate patterns as well, there was almost always a long length flowing down the ornamental gowns they wore.

Fenrir didn't really understand why everyone was so 'similar' to each other but, after recalling the studies she had done in the past, Fenrir believed it was just a cultural thing. She didn't think it was so important to clearly define your status to others, but status itself seemed to be 'very' important in this world. Not only the girly men, but most of the doll-like girls would generally have a large number of people escorting them everywhere they went. Fenrir's frows would furrow every time she saw so many 'servants' waiting on these young men and women, many of which seemed severely lacking in character...

After observing such people for a long period of time, Fenrir realized how fortunate she had been to have a kind and caring Master. In this world, there were people that would draw the long swords at their waist and simply cut off the heads of people who offended them. Since the offense was usually something 'fabricated' by the arrogant people, Fenrir had grown to dislike this world even more, especially after witnessing one of the girly men 'taking' a girl that had been on a date with another man. When she resisted, the girly man ended up stabbing the girl's boyfriend, laughing all the while the man bled out on the ground. That day, Fenrir added several more kills to the number she would have to apologize to her Master for...
