199-Unsealing the mother fox




 
Oh, my Lord, that's not...

 Yoko was surprised to see that Hurt had started using resurrection magic.

 The chanting was heel, but the effect was definitely that of Resurrection.

 Normally, only a few of those who specialize in recovery magic would be able to use the resurrection magic, but Hurt, a wise man, began to use it as a matter of course.

 That he was able to feel the existence of a soul.

 And for Sage Hurt, who had seen Luca (the dragon priestess) and Seira (the saint) use Resurrection many times, it was easy for him to recreate the structure of that magic with a large number of combinations of magic in small pieces.

 The perfectly recreated resurrection magic brought Kikiou's soul, which was trapped in Yoko's seal, back to its original body.

 Without any problems, Kikiou's resuscitation was complete.

 Except that his body is still sealed...


Oh, it's a seal. It's Yoko's, right?

 From the magic power that made up the seal, Hurt realized that the ice that sealed this beautiful woman was Yoko's magic.

''Uh-huh. But since I used the magic power my mother gave me to develop the sealing technique, even I can't break it now...''

Yeah. Then I'll untie you.

Can you solve it?

I don't think so. You mean the seal that you put on her when she was little? I'm sorry to say it, but there are quite a few rough edges here and there that are easy to solve.

 Harto touches the ice that traps Kikiyo.

 As a characteristic of a sage, he is sensitive to the magical power of others. With that, Hurt finds a weak spot in Yoko's seal and pours an enormous amount of magical power into it, forcing him to create a path.

 It's an image of being in a maze where you know which direction the goal is in, and then moving in a straight line towards the goal while destroying all the walls of the maze.

 Halt easily solved Yoko's sealing technique, which would take several years to solve even if a few advanced mages were gathered together.


 About ten seconds after Hurt touched the ice.

 The ice broke.

 From inside, Kikyou fell toward Hurt.

''Oops!''

 He received her body.

 ─ At the same time, Halt is deprived of a large amount of magic power by Kikyou.

 At this time, Kikyou was unconscious, but due to her characteristics as a nine-tailed fox, she sucked magic power from the surroundings in order to recover herself.

 It was a good thing Hurt was the one who touched Kikiou in the first place.

 If it hadn't been him, Kikiou would have sucked out all his magic and life energy and died.

 Two hundred years of sealing and the rebirth of his damaged soul had drained Kikiou of his magic and life energy to a great extent.

 Having absorbed a large amount of Harut's magical power, he managed to recover enough to regain consciousness.


''......This place?

 Kikyou opened her eyes.

 He still seemed to have no strength in his body, and he couldn't stand without being lightly supported by Hurt, but otherwise he looked fine.

''It's nice to meet you, I'm Halt. Your daughter asked me to revive you.

Musume?
'Mother!'

 Yoko hugged Kikiou.

 I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but I think it's a good idea.



It was the Lord who brought you back to life.

You're a... concubine?

I'm glad you were able to revive him. I'm glad we were able to bring you back from the dead. You're a nine-tailed fox, aren't you?

"──What?

 The tension on Kikyou's face.

 She was a full-bodied nine-tailed fox, but for one reason or another, she wasn't out of control and had never attacked a human.

 Still, she understood that if she was exposed as a nine-tailed fox, she would be attacked by a human.

 The nine-tailed fox, which could be a disaster for humans, was an enemy to be defeated when it could be defeated.


 I have to take my daughter and run away now - that's what I think, but my body is not strong enough to do so.

 Now, Yohko is supporting me and I am able to stand up, but I don't think I will be able to run.

 At the very least, I want to let my daughter escape.

It is true that she is a nine-tailed fox and when she recovers, she will serve you for the rest of her life. Therefore, will you please let my daughter alone?

Yes?

 Hurt wasn't sure what Kikyou was talking about.

'Why do you have to let Yoko go?'

That's not...

 Kikyou thought that Hurt was saying that he wouldn't let Yoko get away - that is, he would definitely defeat her.

'Oh, do you think I'm going to attack you?

Mother, don't you worry about that.

Why?

She's my wife.
Yes.

What...

 Kikyou couldn't believe it.

 His own daughter had been united to a human race that was the same as his(her) own(her) own(her) own(her) own(her) own(her) own(her) own(her) own(her) own(her) own(her) own(her) own(her) own(her) own(her) own(her) own(her) own(her) own(her) own(her) own(her) own(her) own(her) own(her) own(her) own(her) own(her) own(her) own(her) own(her) own(her) own(her) own(her) own(her).

 I know how hard it is.

 That's why I couldn't believe it.

'You are Yohko's mother, right? Greetings again. I'm Halt-Elnor. I heard that nine-tailed foxes can heal most of their injuries and fatigue if they absorb magic power. First of all, please use my magic power to recover.

 With that, Hurt held out his hand to Kikyou.

'Shh, but...'

 Kikyou was puzzled.

 For some reason, his strength has recovered a bit, but he still absorbs magic power himself.

 Especially since the nine-tailed fox, which is in a state of magical power depletion, absorbs enough magical power to make a human die with just a touch.

 And yet...

Mother, the Lord will be fine.
Yeah, I'll be fine.

 Hurt takes the liberty of grabbing Kikyou's hand.

'Ah!'

 Magic flows in from the Halt.

'Oh, please don't! Any more and you will die!

 As far as Kikyou knew, he had sucked out a magic power that was close to the limit of what one human race could hold.

 And yet, Hurt doesn't let go of his hand.

''Hmm, it's not very efficient with just a hand, after all.''
Oh, no...

 Harto hugged Kikyou.

 For his part, he thought it was just a light hug to give his magic power quickly.

 But to Kikiou, it was the warmth of the opposite s*x for the second(ish) time in his life.

 And then...

"Hmm?

 A large amount of Halt's flowed in.

 It's not a bad idea to have a good time.

 You will be able to get a lot more than the maximum amount of magic, and this is what causes the symptoms of magic sickness.

 Kikyou's body was enveloped in pleasure.

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no...

 Making an incredibly sweet voice even to himself, Kikiou clung to Hurt's body.

 Hurt, who misunderstood that as an appeal by Kikiou to give more magic power, sent more magic power to him.

''──?''

 Kikyou struggled to endure not to make a winning sound in front of her daughter, Yohko.

 That effort is broken by a wise man who doesn't understand anything.

''Mmmm!

 Kikyou's sweet scream, which would excite anyone who heard the man, echoed around the area.
