The Fox Goddess

"Of course, that is our plan. Once you enter, I'll give you the things that you need to know in order to get what you want, and after that, you can do anything you want from there on. I'm just here to remind you that please don't do anything else after you enter, just focus on getting it because it's not just you who wants to get it. There are actually a lot of people who want it, but you have a direct advantage since they don't know where it is exactly, plus I'm also going to help you in some ways." Momozano acted as if she couldn't feel the murderous aura that Yuki was releasing toward her and acted as if nothing was happening.

"Don't worry about that, I know what to do," Yuki answered nonchalantly as she turned towards Aika and said goodbye one more time it was finally time for them to get separated just like her daughter, she also wanted to finish acquiring this Inheritance as fast as possible because there was another Inheritance that she needs to get. But she's still going to enjoy her stay on Nightingale as it was the homeworld of Kurokami and it means that she would finally be able to meet her parents.

And that was something she had been wanting to do quickly because she was quite skeptical about them. Normally she wouldn't be interested in such things, meeting her parents was of course important as she would ask for their consent first and all that, but she was skeptical about it because when she brought up the talk about Kurokami's parents, she seemed hesitant. And she even saw some lingering fear in her eyes when she refused to talk about it. But what Kurokami told her was that her parents were strict but kind parents to her which she didn't believe because she wouldn't show such emotion if they were really like that.

But all of that was just a hunch for now, she needed to see for herself what kind of family she had, but what she did know was that it was going to be troublesome as Kurokami is a princess. Knowing that she was a princess gives her more of a reason to be skeptical as if she was really being abused it means that she was not a favored child by her parents and it must be one of her siblings who will most likely take the throne, but if Kurokami ever wants it, she doesn't mind helping a hand as doing it was as easy as flipping her hand.

If there was some abuse that has been happening, she wouldn't let it slide, and even if they were her birth parents, Yuki couldn't give a fuck about that as she is going to teach them a very important lesson. But killing them was not an option as knowing how kind and caring Kurokami was, she wouldn't want that to happen even if she was being abused by them.

After saying her goodbye, she stood to the side and let the others say their own goodbye as it was finally time for them to separate. Her heart felt heavy but she couldn't show any weakness now because it would only make things worse. So she merely sighed deeply before retrieving the Fox Mask from her Spatial ring and putting it on to hide her face. When the rest were finally done saying their goodbye, Yuki gave Aika another Spatial Ring that was full of everything that she needed, and after giving everything that was needed, she took Amane for a quick and last talk.

"Take care of her, alright? I trust you to take care of her. She's one of the most important people in my life right now and I can't bear to see her sad or in any pain, okay?" Yuki said calmly as she gazed at the sky with her deep and cold red eyes, but Amane couldn't see what kind of face she was making right now.

"You don't need to tell me that, I will do everything that I can so that she can grow more. I promise you that once she comes back to all of you, she has already mastered using her Time Manipulation, but that is not the only thing. I will also teach her everything that I know about the other Elements. When she comes back, she will still be what you want her to be." Amane swore to Yuki, but what she got in response was something she didn't expect.

"Don't phrase it like that, it makes me look bad. Just say we, since both of us don't want to stay like what she is today. She's our daughter, she shares my blood and yours, and that makes both of us. And… Thank you for accepting my selfish request, but if it's alright, I'm going to make another selfish request." Yuki took a deep breath as she looked straight into Amane's eyes and asked something which caught Amane off guard.

"Wha… what is it?" Amane was for some reason nervous when she heard how serious Yuki was talking and she had a hunch because she seemed to know what she was going to request from her.

"Don't… I mean don't let your parents get close with Aika. At least not for now, after all, I have not forgotten what they have done to me, especially your Mother who tried to kill her." Yuki calmly said her request which was something that Amane had already accepted. And this was a thing that she also wanted to ask Yuki about because she felt that there was still room to change. She doesn't want her parents to be away with her grandparents, so she was actually going to ask permission from Yuki to let Aika meet them, but now that she was requesting the opposite, she was conflicted about what she should do about it.

"I know what you are thinking… and before you ask me. I'll approve of it but under one condition. When those two visit her, they should never, I mean never tell who they are in front of her. Even if Aika gets suspicious just deny it for whatever reason you can think of until they learn their lesson, I will never let Aika know who they really are, and that she only has two grandparents who are my two Mothers, nothing more, nothing less. Also… they are only allowed to visit once a month, if I find out that they have been visiting for more than that, I can guarantee you that I will never let them meet her again." Yuki calmly explained. She also knows what Amane was thinking and she got ahead of her and explained it.

She was not easily going to forget what they had done and she was the type of person who likes to hold onto grudges, so this is something she is not going to pass. Yuki wants them to suffer by having that kind of feeling, even if they are playing with Aika, their granddaughter doesn't know who they are but they are just two people who are kind and want to play with her. But she was still not done with her request.

"Also, apart from meeting Aika just once a month, they are also not allowed to interfere in whatever she is doing. They are not allowed to influence her in any way, give hints, or spoil her. The only thing that they can do is play for a bit and just chat with her, that's it. Now that is the end of my request for your parents, now for yours, but don't worry. It's not something absurd." Yuki was still not done and continued with her request.

"This is the training regime that she needs to follow. I have already divided it into a whole week, and in that week's time, she has something to do each day. You can't change this in any way, because this would be the best for her. And lastly, for my last request… take as many pictures as you can with her and send them to me." Yuki's final request wasn't absurd and she could do all of them easily, especially the last one which she actually finds cute.

"I have no problem with all of those, I will definitely do all of them."
