Yoko was about to be swallowed by a black emotion.


　"Let's kill the others.

　No!

　No! Every last one of the people who killed my mother.

　The adventurer who killed my mother is already dead.

　Now I have the power to destroy them.

　Stop!


　Two wills are at war within Yohko.

　Yohko's desire for revenge on the human race led her to release the magical power stored in her tail.

　She has transformed into a nine-tailed fox and is determined to destroy the human village near Mt.

　Yohko's will, which had no intention of running amok, had no physical initiative, and there was nothing he could do about it.

　However, he couldn't release his magic power.

''What is this?''

　Every time he tried to release his magic power and return to his nine-tailed form, the back of his right hand hurt badly.

　Because of that, he couldn't get it to release its magic power well.

　The master-servant contract he had made with the human race had stopped Yoko from running amok.

''Such a thing!

　When he tried to cut off his right hand to break the contract...

　The words echoed in my head.

'Well then, Yoko, you're not allowed to maliciously attack a human unless I give you permission to do so.

Oh, my Lord...

　At Hurt's words, the initiative of her body shifted to Yoko's will, which had no intention of running off.


　d*mn the human race!
　Let's kill him first.

　It's not up to you.

　I am a full-bodied nine-tailed fox.
　There's no way I'm going to defeat a human.

　I may be perfect, but I'm no match for him.

　Enough!
　Don't you hate the humans?

　I do hate them.

　So what?

　My mother's avenger is dead.

　Now you will kill someone else's!

　I will not allow it.

　Even if you try to take over my body, the Lord will surely stop me.

　Even if you try to take over my body, the Lord will stop me.

　No, no!
　You should hate the race more than you do!
　If you do, I will destroy them!

　I cannot bear a grudge against my people.

　I can't do it because I love you, Lord!


　I'm not going to harm the humans because I love my Lord!

　And that's not all.

　I've been watching Haruto's seemingly insane power and various abilities for a long time now, and Yohko believes that if you rely on him, you can manage most things.

　He was hopeful, that it could be managed.


''I may be able to revive ... my mother.

　Oh, it can't be.
　My mother is dead, she was murdered!
　One hundred and ninety years ago!

It is true. But I immediately sealed up Mother's body. Because my mother took away my memories and gave me all the power she had left, I, who could not control my power, used a sealing technique that bound even my soul.

　Yoko touches Kikyou's seal.

'Here lies my mother's soul.

　Although it was only faint, he could feel that Kikyou's soul was trapped in the seal.

'Mother, I'm sorry I've kept you in this place for so long,'

　I did not intend to do this, but I sincerely apologize for having bound my soul for almost two hundred years.


'But it is because of that that I can revive my mother.

　I mean, even if there was a soul left, there is no way you could connect a soul with a body that has spent over a hundred years apart!　

You're still here. Can we get out of here now?　No more will I run out of control.

　Shut up!　My mother's return is a fantasy.
　There's no way she can!
　You know how much magic and complex magic manipulation is required to revive someone!

Of course. It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you need to revive your mother. I am the master.

　Oh, yes!
　Besides, you didn't even understand your power at the time and put a seal on it.
　Because of that, it has become a seal that even you can't break now!

"Hmm. My poor seal is as simple as my poor seal, and you can break it off without a hitch.

　Nah!
　But even if the seal was broken, that person wouldn't be able to revive my mother.
　An enormous amount of magical power would be required.
　That's exactly the kind of magic power that even my complete body, 'I', would not be enough!
　And besides, my mother is a disaster, a nine-tailed fox.

You don't understand anything. You don't know anything, do you? And you are a rare womanizer. He doesn't reject anything that comes his way. How could such a man not try to revive a beautiful woman like my mother?

　Yoko puts her hand on her head.

I have a lot of things to do now. Therefore, I have a lot of things to do now, so I'm going to let the "wicked me" that seeks to avenge my people sleep.

　What?　Stop...

　By brainwashing herself, Yoko sealed herself off from being consumed by the negative emotions and trying to run away.


'Well, let's go home now.

　Yoko lightly lifted the icicle where Kikiou was sealed and walked out of the cave.

　There were several books left behind by Kikyou in this cave, and Yoko had come to look for any hints of alter ego magic in them.

　However, if he could revive his mother, who had left the book behind, it would be best to ask her in person.


　Leaving the cave, Yoko reverted to her nine-tailed fox form.

　Then she carefully wrapped Kikiyo's seal with her tail and left Reizan, flying through the air just as she had come.
