In the shrine's dimly lit corridor, the youth embraced the kimono-clad golden-haired fox-eared classical beauty from behind in an aggressively intimate position.
Though she'd anticipated the youth would notice her earlier unusual behavior, when actually exposed, Yasaka couldn't help trembling.
"How do you know, Bokue..."
"I have my ways."
Bokue's fingers tightened slightly on those towering peaks, lowering his head to rest his chin on the golden-haired beauty's shoulder.
"But I know you have your reasons, Yasaka. So if possible, I hope you'll tell the truth now."
"..."
"Or should I go ask her directly?"
"No—wait!"
Hearing the youth intended to confront her sister directly, Yasaka involuntarily cried out softly.
Of course, Bokue didn't imdiately leave. He remained in place, quietly holding the golden-haired beauty, giving her sufficient ti to think.
After about five or six seconds, Yasaka's golden lashes—lowered in conflict—finally trembled.
"...I understand. I'll tell you everything, Bokue. Let's go to Kunou's room first... Kunou's original room."
"Alright."
Without hesitation, Bokue agreed imdiately. He swept the golden-haired beauty into his arms—one hand at her waist, the other under her knees—letting the soft kimono fabric outline Yasaka's mature, voluptuous curves as he strode directly toward Kunou's room.
❁❁❁❁❁❁❁❁
Scene shift—
They had arrived at Kunou's room.
As Bokue had expected, everything Yasaka said that afternoon about Kunou changing rooms was false. All the little fox shrine maiden's belongings remained in their original positions, clearly still in daily use.
But Yasaka bringing him here ant she'd truly decided to tell him everything.
Yasaka Shrine was a standard classical Japanese building. The bedroom had no chairs, so they sat directly on the tatami mats.
Well, technically only Bokue sat on the floor. Yasaka was forced to sit in the youth's embrace, squirming uncomfortably.
"Um... Bokue, please let down first. Kunou's still bathing but she'll be back soon. If she sees us like this..."
"Then I'll go ask your sister directly?"
"..."
With those words from Bokue, Yasaka—who'd been restless about her daughter potentially walking in after her bath—imdiately froze.
Teasing Yasaka occasionally feels quite nice.
Bokue thought to himself while tightening his arm around the golden-haired beauty's waist, making her lean almost all her weight into his embrace.
"So tell about your relationship with Hagoromo-Gitsune."
"Our... relationship..."
Yasaka rested her head against the youth's chest, her pale cheeks flushing from his scent.
"Would you believe if I said we're blood sisters?"
"That's hard to believe." Bokue skillfully played with the crimson peaks atop the golden-haired beauty's mountains through her kimono.
"After all... You and Hagoromo-Gitsune look nothing alike."
"I thought as much..."
Yasaka bit her lower lip, her eyes misting slightly.
"But Hagoromo-Gitsune and I truly are blood sisters. However, compared to with my exceptional talent, Hagoromo-Gitsune's talent was diocre from childhood. When I'd trained enough to take this human form, Hagoromo-Gitsune could barely manage human limbs. Even her facial features and fur retained their fox characteristics, and most of the ti she could only appear as a fox."
"Yet ordinary yokai only live for a few centuries. To prevent from living alone after her hundred years passed, Hagoromo-Gitsune created what you might call an unconventional Reincarnating thod—she turned herself into a reincarnating yokai."
"Reincarnating yokai?"
Bokue raised an eyebrow. This was his first ti hearing this concept.
"That's right."
Yasaka nodded gently, continuing.
"Normally, yokai are like humans—after death, they enter the cycle of reincarnation and beco soone else."
"But my sister is different. Using techniques she developed, she reincarnates repeatedly, awakening all her accumulated power, mories, and emotions from previous lives each ti. Through repeated reincarnations, she grows an additional tail each cycle until finally becoming a nine-tailed celestial fox like ."
"That sounds pretty good."
Bokue nodded in agreent.
Unlike traditional conservative views, he'd never thought manipulating reincarnation was shaful.
Like the Edo Tensei in Naruto—when Bokue watched that ani, he never felt it desecrated the dead.
It was just helping deceased people win resurrection matches. What was desecrating about that?
Real desecration would be planting control chips in reincarnated people's heads and making them do things that damaged their reputation in public.
Even considering Edo Tensei required sacrifices—that could be solved using death row inmates from prisons.
Think about it—trading the life of a heinous criminal for your deceased elder or friend's resurrection, letting them et and chat with you daily. Wouldn't you want that?
By the sa logic, Bokue didn't think Hagoromo-Gitsune inventing reincarnation just to stay with her sister was wrong.
So the question was—if she was just continuously reincarnating for improvent, how did the conflict between Hagoromo-Gitsune and the Keikain family arise?
As Bokue pondered this, Yasaka spoke again.
"Initially, Hagoromo-Gitsune's reincarnation went smoothly. She'd always find imdiately after each successful reincarnation."
"But about a thousand years ago, after entering reincarnation, Hagoromo-Gitsune didn't find . When I found her, her personality had completely changed—from gentle and kind to cold and ruthless. And she had a son nad Abe no Seii beside her."
"Could this be the legendary maternal protection instinct?"
Bokue guessed casually.
He'd heard that mother cats beca extrely aggressive after giving birth, entering instant hissing mode against anyone trying to approach their kittens.
"No, not at all." Yasaka shook her head decisively. "From my observations, that Abe no Seii isn't my sister's son at all. I... don't know what he actually is, but he's definitely extrely dangerous."
Hmm? So Abe no Seii isn't actually Hagoromo-Gitsune's son?
Bokue suddenly felt things were becoming increasingly intriguing.
It felt like listening to unofficial history—quite entertaining.
