Taka looked up to you waiting for your reply. She was only a kid and degrading her like this just to enter the deeper land ruled by Ryuga was not something you were willing to do. Instead, you call out the guards on their demands, “She is only a kid, how can you be that heartless!” “We have a strict policy of-” “A strict policy that implies you all can handle a little girl if she becomes a problem. Which she won’t and even if she did you are suggesting that you all could not deal with a small girl yourselves. How shameful of you, are you concerned that this small girl is capable of beating you all?!” You let out your feelings and hoped that the guards would see reason. The guards whispered to each other before speaking once again. “We have a strict policy on kitsune here though your qualms are well founded. Why if we could not handle one little girl then we might as well kill ourselves for being embarrassments to lady Ryuga. We only ask that you keep her close.” That was your intention anyways. Shiromitsu told you that he tried peace talks with Ryuga but she refused him simply because she detested the kitsune race. You still have no reason why, but by that fact along you can assume a kitsune was not safe on the streets by herself here. “Thank you, guardsman, for seeing reason.” You thank the guards and head into the town that lay between mountains.

The town was affluent with dragonkin, but also various bird species such as harpies and even a few sirens. Though these sirens seem much more mild mannered than the ones you remember. You receive a large number of looks as you stroll through the town. You were expecting that, but these looks tended to linger longer than when you were in Shirokami. You approach one of the locals in hope of finding information. “Hello there ms, would you mind if I asked you the fastest way to lady Ryuga’s castle?” She looks over your group, “And why should I answer you?” “I apologize for not explain fully.” You try to remain as polite as possible. In this land, it seems politeness will take you almost anywhere.”I had hoped to meet lady Ryuga and seek her wise advice on a matter. Not to mention lady Ryuga is renowned as a great leader in this land and not meeting her while here would be a waste.” The dragonkin looks pensive, to say the least, but she sighs and answeres your question regardless,“She lives in a spire that winds around the mountain top east of here. The best way to get to it is by taking the eastern path that splits from this one through the city.” “Thank you madam and we are sorry for bothering you.” The woman gazes down at Taka. Taka does her best to smile but the woman only looks disgusted, “Yeah, you should be.”

It might be best to watch around town and ask people their opinions on the situation. You tend to notice that most of these people are living pretty relaxed lives. There were children at play, people were working the fields as normal as you could imagine. People in the market square were shopping without a care. Yuki got excited when you went there but you had to talk her down. She already spent more than enough of your funds on clothes and accessories. Overall you would say that it was as if these people didn’t think there was a war going on let a half an hour away from their homes.

When you ask some people about how the war is going, how they are and their opinions on the other nations they largely say good, fine and that Tenji (Ryuga’s territory) was the best and they disliked Shirokami the worst. This whole prejudice against kitsune has you puzzled so you decided to take the chance and as a few people “They are tricksters!” “Nothing they say is the truth!” “ungrateful mongrels!” were the responses you got. Taka was hiding behind you all from then on. You did manage to get one older gentlemen who didn’t mind going into detail about the war. “The war has been raging for quite some time, but we have never faced attack, lord Ryuga is a kind leader and only wishes to protect her people. The other nations, however, are either liars, sinful, or crazy. You can’t trust any of them. I only hope that lady Ryuga will win this war soon. I want to be able to live to see her as lord of Wa”

After spending enough time in the town you head on the eastern path to Ryuga’s spire. You didn’t exactly where it was, but you figured a spire winding around a mountain was easy enough to find. As you travel you notice more and more dragonkin flying overhead and around nearby mountains. Must mean you are getting closer. Eventually, you come to a large wall that was built into two mountains sectioning off the rest of the path to the spire. You look up at what it was guarding. An ornate spire that wound around the mountain. It looked almost like a Chinese dragon was wrapped around it. It was made of almost pure jade and had other gems for detail embedded in the beast. It was one of the only sections of this land that had perfect blue skies above it with rays of sunlight that glistened the spire and only made it look more beautiful. Adrian is drooling over all the gems that could potentially be in there. You punch him lightly in the arm, to discourage stealing from alive people.

“Who goes there?!” you see a guard on the gate calling out to you all. You bow, “We are a group of travelers wishing an audience with the lord of Tenji, lady Ryuga.” “And what makes you think she would want to see you, let alone with that thing!” Taka ducts behind you after that comment. “We simply thought it would be a waste to travel to this lovely land without meeting the wise and kind Ryuga.” The guard thinks over what you said. “I will report to my higher-ups and see what they will allow.” “That would be most kind of you.” The guard leaves and you await their return with hopefully good news. “She seems to have a flair for vanity, this Ryuga” Rozalin comments on the lady’s ornate spire. “She is definitely a proud ruler, how that translate to her people skills will be interesting.” The guards return shortly, “You may enter, but I must have you hold onto your “thing” while inside. Lady Ryuga will either see you like that or the kitsune will have to wait outside.

The lord of Tenhi despises kitsune to her core it seems. Bringing Taka with you might cause tensions during talks but leaving her by herself in this land as an alternative is… a difficult decision.

Leaving Taka by herself is dangerous but going in with her could cause issues. “Everyone, stay here with Taka while I talk with Ryuga. “You can’t be serious!” Anna objects, “You are walking into a warlord's palace, by yourself?! Last time we almost got into a fight with the guards. If something like that happens again, you could be killed instantly. “It won’t come to that.” “How do you know?” This time, the voice came from Yuki. “How do you know nothing will happen,” “Because Yuki I have done this a bunch before, trust me I can take care of it.” “You can take care of it? Are you hearing yourself? You are taking on everything by yourself again!” “Yuki that isn’t what this is about, it's about protecting Taka.” “That doesn’t chance the fact that you are doing it alone, but fine if it's for Taka then I will let it go for now. Just… make sure to come back.” You placed your hand on Yuki’s shoulder. The thought of not coming back never crossed my mind.”

You now turn to the guards, “I will see Ryuga alone.” “That is acceptable.” The jade doors of the wall slowly open as you boldly stride into them. If Ryuga was as wise and kind as she has been made out to be hopefully these talks won’t turn sour and you’ll have to somehow fight your way out of the jade palace. There were 5 guards surrounding and leading you to the spire. As you imagined the entire spire was a large spiral staircase and Ryuga would be at its summit. You could have sworn that the climb took you an hour as you nearly collapse after taking the final step. The guards who escorted you, however, were barely breaking a sweat. Must be nice being a dragon that could fly. At the top of the staircase you were greeted by a large door which was painted in bright colors dragons soaring over what you could imagine was the land of Wa the others were below the dragon all looked to be paying reverence to the majestic creature. The guards slowly split the painting in two as the doors swung open. Inside this room, you found a beautiful woman, with ornate accessories covering her head to toe. She must have been wearing at least 3 or 4 layers of robes and her hair looked like it is cared for every single minute of everyday. And her diamond headdress only further added the beauty of her hair to her person. The woman seemed to be waited on by at least 3 different handmaidens who likely brought food to her and fanned on request without a moment of hesitation. “Lady Ryuga, it is truly a pleasure to meet such a distinguished one as you,” You bow respectfully to the warlord. “Yes quite, It is rare… to see a human in these lands, one has not come here in over hundreds of years, why are you here now?

Lady Ryuga, I am a traveler seeking to find out what killed the last ruler of Wa and why this war between the four of you have lasted this long.” “Hmm,non stop” She seems to mull over to answer you or not. She then nods, “The last lord died from someone’s foul play, likely Kakuri, that snake is one in every sense of the word, or it might have been Shiromitsu that lying filth. The night of his death was a meeting between the five of us. The old lord was quite old and wanted to ensure that use four could be at peace with each other. I lead the talks of peace but it was clear to the others that whoever got to be the next lord was the one to declare true peace. I started to address the people of the land rather than their lords and soon the old lord died. I think it was one of the threes desperate attempt to keep the people from unifying under me. It worked as everything fractured but this war has become tedious. I had hoped to win in a year at most, but each warlord had tricks hidden up their sleeves especially that Shiromitsu! The guile and in some cases non-stop aggression has fueled this war and it is only burning higher and brighter.”

“Lady Ryuga, you have made i clear that you dislike Shiromitsu, but what do you think of the others?” She scoffs, “Kakuri is a cunning creature, he only strikes when he knows he will win and looks for everyone opportunity to win. Shirabu is a brute, and takes pleasure in killings. How the old lord managed to reign her in I have no idea. “Thank you lord Ryuga, but if you don’t mind I have one other question.” “Again? How many do you have girl?” You might have more after this so you just say it plainly, “Why do you seem to hate kitsune so much.” Her face turns sour for a moment but then regains her beautiful solace like appearance. “Because they are liars, cheaters, and mischief makers. That Shiromitsu is the perfect example. He always played games even when the old lord was alive to gain more power for himself. “Kind Wolf” more like a “Filthy Weasel.” She pauses, “I am feeling exceptionally nice today. And I will warn you that your kitsune companion is lying to you about something, never trust them no matter how small, they will only slit your throat the moment you stop being useful to them and you let your guard down.”

“If you don’t mind lady Ryuga what games did Shiromitsu play?” “Political games, forging alliances stabbing others in the back. All he cared about was his own gain, he would turn on his own mother if he had the opportunity. One time he even fooled me into believing he had a god idea to bring everyone together when really he was plotting my own downfall. Sneaky bastard uses a guise to get his way.” You get an odd thought, “Could it be that Shromitsu is a woman pretending to be a man with their screen divider?” “No that is not the case, he is a snake who hides his face to maintain an advantage in talks that is all.” She sighs and places her hand on her face. “But that is enough of that man,”

“What of the former lord of war instead? Did he not leave an heir or have no descendants.” That is not how it works in the land of Wa. The most powerful lord becomes ruler and manages all the other lords. Though when a lord dies this leads to wars most often. They are always quite short as there is one clear powerhouse. But the old lord wished us to cooperate and divided our power equally resulting in this big mess. The system is flawed, as evident from our current situation but it has been tradition and tradition.”

“It is clear that you came here for questions and I answered, but now it is time for me to ask you little one.” “Of course Lord Ryuga” “Will you and your entourage join this war? Not only from your armor but from your stance I can tell you have seasoned many battles. You intend to meddle in our islands affairs at some point. Perhaps aid the side you feel is most just. Well, I can tell you truthfully in the land of Wa wars require no one to be just. You fight and you die all the same. You may seek out the other lords for audiences such as this, but you will learn only the same. You and your colorful group of companions are unknowns and could sway this stagnant affair. Just hope you choose the right side if you do join.” You were a bit confused, she warned you, but she never asked… “Lady Ryuga do you intend to ask me to join your cause?” “No I don’t” She simply replied “?” “You don’t want me to help you?” “If I asked you wouldn’t answer, I am not blind to what you are doing. You will decide your own course of action, not me. But if you do wish to join me I will not turn you away.”

Do you intend on joining the war?

“I originally came here lord Ryuga out of curiosity but seeing as things are I want help in some way. How that is I do not yet know as I intend to talk with all four lords before arriving at a decision.” You laid out your honest feelings, you didn’t know if it would satisfy the warlord but you answered all the same. “Very well, then you best leave here and continue your journey.” “Thank you for your time lady Ryuga.” The guards look at you and you get the message that it was time to leave

You make your way back through the spire and Ryuga’s guards acted normally. Thankfully going downstairs is a lot easier than going up and you were back on the ground in no time. The guards continued to escort you as you head to the wall with your friends hopefully on the other side. Once opened you did see your friends but there was one extra among them. A harpy like girl with green and yellow erratic hair about her. “So I was all like sreeeeeee, and then they were all like booooooom!” this figure spoke. “Awesome! What next?!” Adrian happily replied. Seems like this person was trying to recount a story but only Adrian seems to be the one that follows. “What about you human what awesome things have you done.” She asked the young man. “Well, I fought off slavers, helped raise a revolution and the best part.” He prepares his hands. “I can do this!” He shoots geysers of flames from his palms and the girl seems ecstatic.” “Ahh, that is soooo coooool!” “RIGHT?!” Whoever this new girl was she was hitting it off with Adrian. But it was time to interrupt their conversation. “Alright guys sorry about that, and you might you be young miss?” “Me I work for Ryuga and was bored so I came to chat with these eccentric foreigners. The young man here proved the only one refined enough to understand my conversational ways.” “Great…” You look over to Adrian and he gives you a thumbs up. “Well, I better get back to Ryuga, Human what is your name! “Me? Well, my name is-” “No not you, you.” She points at Adrian. “Oh my name is Adrian and I follow our leader.” “Adrian eh? I’ll have to remember it, my name is Raiko come by sometime.” With that, the bird left. You were a little surprised at what just happened, “So uhh… what happened?” “Everyone agreeing states, “I have no idea.” Besides Adrian who answers, “Met a nice girl who was flying on her way back to the spire,” Taka jumps in, “That wasn’t just a girl that was Raiko! You know the one that erased a small section of woods off the map?!” “Really?!” You Adrian responded in equal amazement.You never would have expected one of Ryuga’s most powerful tools to be like that, or hit it off with Adrian.

Well, this can be talked about later, for now, we should decide where to go next.

You think about heading to Shirabu and her demons in the east, she is the closest to you after all. Though maybe you want to be careful if her reputation does precede her this might get hairy. “Alright everyone we are going to go to Shirabu in the east, but we must be on guard.” “Rodger that,” Anna affirmed. She was already on guard while we were here, but now she pretends to be “super” on guard.

Before you head out, though, “So Adrian you had a nice time with that girl.” “We only talked for like 10 minutes while you were away but overall yeah I thought she was nice.” “You uhh want to stay here and hang out with her?” He turns red, “W-W-What?! I always go with you guys, and how would I know I would be safe here on my own.” “Rozalin leans in, “Simple. All you have to do is stay on her good side. If you need some tips, though…” She begins to whisper in Adrian's ear but Aki pulls her away from him, “Don’t listen to her, just be yourself with this, granted you should be careful since you would be close to Ryuga.” You address their concerns, “Ryuga is a smart leader, she will not harm you in any way regardless if Raiko doesn’t want you there.” “Are you sure?”

“Well…” Adrian shifts his eyes around. “I guess I can stay here for a bit….” “What?!” Yuki yelled. “Are you just okay with being left in potentially enemy territory while we head out like this?” You again speak, “Trust me Yuki he will be fine. “How do you know that?” “I just do, Adrian you should have some fun every now and again. We are heading to the Eastern territory, but we will come for you once we finish our tour. “O-Okay?” You give him a quick pat on the shoulder smile and face him toward the spire. Adrian stumbles as he walks to the gate and announces his entrance to meet with Raiko. The guards open up and you see a yellow light flash from the spire down to the ground behind the wall.

Adrian is by himself now, but hopefully, he will be alright. He should be, you didn’t want to say it in front of him but Ryuga knows you might become her ally so she would keep him safe. Even if you become her enemy she would hold him hostage to keep you from attacking her. It was kind of a jerk thing to do to make someone a contingency in a war but hopefully, he at least enjoys himself. “For the rest of use, we will head to the eastern country.”

You just silently made your way through the towns. You were walking near the border of the two territories when you notice another skirmish was taking place.

She loves to fight small fry like this?” “I don’t know!” one of the others yell, “She hasn’t been responding to our calls.”

Best to keep moving. You head further into the demon territory but so far it is relatively peaceful, well as peaceful as worsening black landscapes and storm clouds can be. You heard the constant skittering a small animals which you had no idea what or where they were. The ground rumbled under your feet occasionally and the trees in the forest slowly looked more and more decayed and rotted. After a bit of walking the rumbling of the ground intesified. Through the trees you could start to see a dark plain with a hole 50 men riding horses. Tehr was one energetic one in the ground shouting something or other. You get the feeling that this happens a lot here.

Surprisingly your journey into the lands was not too rough. Seems most of the raids and skirmishes take place on the borders were as the inner territory is relatively peaceful, if not a little dark in tone. You now come up to a small village where familiarly the guards there stop you. Two oni, one red the other blue say to you. Now what is a human of all things doing here?” “I didn’t know there were any of them left Hans.” “There ain’t supposed to be Franz, but I wonder if they be squishy like the lord tells us.” You sensed your opportunity, “You mentioned lord Shirabu, Could I seek an audience with her?” “You mean you wants to talk? Well I don’t know how well that will go for ya, but the lord does enjoy her challenges.” “Challenges? We just wanted to talk to lord Shirabu.” “Don’t worry human she will accept your challenge, she always does.” “That's too bad Franz I wanted to fight the human myself.” “Can’t be helped the lord always looks for a chance to stretch her legs. The two oni mildly complain to each other as they let you pass. “One last thing” you called to the guards, “Were is lord Shirabu?” “She in the castle?” He looks to his companion as if he didn’t know. “Yeah the castle east of here!” The other one yells. “Thanks?”

That was certainly interesting, you were glad you got in easy but it felt a little off. “Hey Taka do the demons always act like this?” “They are usually rowdy like the ones on the border but the tradition of honor on this island is strong everywhere. If you challenged their lord only they could address it.” “But I didn’t challenger her at all! I just wanted to talk.” “Apparently that was enough for her.” “But she wasn’t even there for it!” I guess we’ll just have to wait and see what she is like.

As you walk through the town you notice that it seems a lot like a normal village only bleaker and most people have demon horns or tails and questionable temperaments, “Hye Nessera was your old village like this. “Yes, it was relatively peaceful, more so than this one though.” Interesting.

>>506049

You might want to hang around town like in Tenhi to figure out more about this place. You were concerned about people challenging you because you all were newcomers. You were right to be concerned as many people show up to challenge you to one on one brawls. You didn’t have to answer them but if you wanted to be more in touch with the populace you might want to. “I’ll do it,” Victoria cracks her knuckles. “Thanks, Victoria just try not to kill people,” Anna piped up, “Hmph if she is fighting then I will too.” “Heh,” Victoria scoffs “Shall it be the usual pipsqueak?” “You mean your usual defeat?” “Over my dead body!” After delivery, that line Victoria belts one of your demon challengers in the face. Anna seems upset, “I didn’t say we were starting yet!” “We’re starting.” “Why you!” Anna and Victoria then begin to hover around you as you walk through town. Beating up anyone who tries to mess with you while counting how many people the each took out.

While you were surrounded by a whirling storm of fists and hurtful comments you managed to talk with some of the crowd, well most of them were interested in challenging you so you had Nessera talk to some of her own people. “So what is the general word on the streets Nessera?” “Word is that lord Shirabu commonly fights on the front lines herself but her advisors are instructing her not to. She is said to be cooped up in her castle and restless. Making your challenge probably all the more welcoming to her.” “Good to know… Taka, is there anything about demon traditions you know of” “Hmm,” the young kitsune scratches her head, “They like drinking?” She tilts her head in uncertainty. Well, it’s something.

After causing a whirlwind of beat up men and women you think it is time to head toward Shirabu’s castle. After Anna and Victoria’s magnificent display it didn’t seem like many people wanted to mess with you. Well except Anna and Victoria messing with each other. But that was nothing new. “Another tie?!” “No way I beat up 15 there was no way you got 15 as well. I counted both of ours!” “Fat chance pipsqueak, you’re just trying to make up for not being able to keep up.” “grrrrr.” Anna holds herself back and stews in her own anger. She might need to redirect it at another soon. You think in the distance you can see your destination, a dark castle which looked straight out of gothic European architecture. Tall, pointy and overly elaborate arches. The castle was black and you could swear that a permanent thunder cloud was stationed over it.

You should think about how you are going to go about approaching Shirabu.

Challenging someone as like Shirabu if she is as bloodthirsty as people make her out to be to a fight would not be a wise decision. If it comes to it maybe you can play her in a game of chess or another board game you were good at. Though a thought occurred to you, what if Shirabu was younger than you? She has advisors as most rulers do but she is confined to a castle by them. Could that mean she has yet to come into age? If so maybe you could use this to your advantage. Maybe if you act like your favorite vampiress you can get somewhere. Just maybe.

You continue your march toward the dark castle when you notice that unlike Ryuga’s tower or Shiromitsu’s castle there were no guards at all. You walk straight up to the castle doors and announce, “Uhh… I have come to speak with lord Shirabu.” The doors just open on their own. Spooky. In the main audience chamber though you meet a tall and skinny man of dark complexion. Lord Shirabu is not accepting chats at the moment.” “Well, this chat might end up being a challenge.” “Truly? She would enjoy stretching her legs and killing someone for a change of sitting in this dark place. I will fetch her immediately.”

That was the easiest you have had it with the warlords. It seems the demons care almost nothing about defensive protocols or maybe Shirabu is so confident in herself she doesn’t need them.

Either way, your “Talks” will begin soon.

You know she will accept your challenge, but it will be to a game of checkers not a game of combat. You could still “kill” at checkers by just being better than the other player but it might take some convincing to get the demon lord to play.

From one of the dark staircases you hear footsteps coming down the stairs, “So who is it that I get to kill today?” Lord Shirabu spoke as the demon walked down to meet her opponent. You had to pinch yourself because there was no way that your random thought could have been right and Lord Shirabu is a young girl. She couldn’t look over 8 years old, had long flowing blond hair. Beautiful white skin with a simple but commanding black and red dress. The one accessory that did spook you a bit was the bloodied katana she was carrying slung over her shoulder. “Well!” she goads the audience.

You really tried to hold it in but there was no way, not in the face of this, “Oh my god you are just so adorable!” It was as if you teleported to the demon lord as you sprinted to her in record time. “hehe, “ You pet and pat the head of the young demoness. “Whaaaaaaaaa?” She seems quite confused. But after a minute she gets what is happening and swings down her katana at you. It was a jerky swing so you were able to jump back and dodge it easily. “D-Do not treat me as a child. “The demon spoke as she was rubbing her head as if to cleanse it off your touch. You prepared your best Mother voice, “I am sorry darling but you just looked so cute, can you really blame me?” Again she seemed shocked. She points her Katana at you “S-Stop it! You came here to challenge me and I will see you dead!” small drops of blood fell off the katana. You double checked yourself real fast but you had no wounds. Yet it was freshly bloodied.

She seems to be wavering slightly when you treated her like that. Maybe you can channel Mother and Rozalin some more to convince her to not fight you. “Let’s be honestly darling, you liked it when I petted you and treated you like that.” “D-Did not!” “This wouldn’t be so hard on yourself if you just were honest.” You started walking forward as the young demon continued to increase the velocity of her shaky wrist. “S-S-Stay back! I have not received the official challenge so just say so so that I can kill you!” “Alright, I got a challenge.” “Finally!” The shaky wrist was stabilizing as she could let loose her bloodlust. “The challenge I had in mind would be me petting you and talking." The blade fell from her hands. "If I win you will have to talk with me about everything.” “Her wists and almost her entire body shakes rapidly. If you hunch was right she would accept and either way, her pride shouldn’t let her decline. “F-F-Fine! But if I win I kill you.”

“Now let’s begin.” She looks up at you with disdain. “You place your hand on her head and she keeps her disdaining glare in direct eye contact. “Now how have you been here in the castle?” She was taken back by the question. “Uhhh… bored, I haven’t gotten to kill anything until just...now” “That’s sad, a ruler like you should be able to do as she sees fit, for the good of the people after all.” “And I kept telling them that but noooooo, ‘you’re too valuable’ they said. Glad, I got to kill one on the way here.” So that’s why her sword was bloody, this little girl was kinda scary but you can’t let that stop you. Your petting skills were being put to the test and you continued your assault. “That’s too sad darling, you will just have to pay the enemy back ten times when you finally get out.” “Y-Yeah, ahh,” You increased the momentum of your palm and you could tell she was enjoying it. She was wavering, it was time for the killing technique. You shift yourself to behind the young demon and embraced her with your hand still on her head patting away, “Don’t worry Shirabu, you can tell big sis anything. I’ll make sure you will get out of here someday.” “mmmhhhm, Y-Yeah…” You feel the girl relax in your arms. But then there is a sudden stiffening of her body. She stops all movement and you hear, “no no no you will…. Not…she stiffened in a last-ditch effort of resistance. She held everything inside, her movements and even her breath. Nothing was going to break her, but this resistance only made you apply more pressure. You hand shifted from soft gentle pats to rough ruffling. “N-No…..” The two sensations which shifted rapidly combined with your ever tightening hug was slowly whittling away at her. “It’s okay Shirabu, just listen to your big sis and I’ll make sure you are well taken care of, we can even go out and play(kill) together.” After a second she releases all her tension. She realized that resistance was no longer possible, “Ahhhhhhhh,” she exhales as she turns to warm jelly in your arms. “Ha...ha...ha..” she was heavily breathing, “Y-Y-You… win...Onee-chan.”

The little demon looked to be in between consciousness and she looked like she would fall asleep in your arms at any moment. She looked like she was about to nuzzle in.

You should let her sleep, after what she went through she is pretty blissed out and you don’t want to ruin that for her. You keep her in your lap, though.

She was even cuter while she was asleep. “So Taka, what is a Onee-chan?” You noticed that Taka appears rather stunned at what just happened. Not just her but Rozalin, Nessera and even Aki looked speechless. “W-What?” “You just petted a demon lord to sleep,” Taka utters. “Yeah?” “I just….I can’t... how?!” She is flabbergasted. You look to your petting hand. You clench and unclench your fist. Did you always have this power?” “I just can’t even….” She sits down and holds her hand to her forehead. “Hooooooooooowwwwwww?” She probably needs some time to cool down. Which is fine cause you had to wait for Shirabu to wake up regardless.

You friends come up to you, “I must say I am impressed young one, we all knew you had the ability to talk but your finger work seems to be top notch,” Nessera admitted. “Fufu, maybe she can give me lessons sometimes,” Rozalin stretches her hands. You then hear a voice in your head, “I had no idea you could adopt my persona so quickly and effectively. Darling, you are truly something, but there were plenty of missteps , first you need to to have them fall into your arms not take charge yourself, then you-” You tune her out, “Whatever.”

There isn’t much you can do while you wait for her to get up so you might as well think of some questions or what to do when she does get up

>Questions (what)
>Actually Shirabu I was wondering if you want to go get some exercise with me
>Write in

>>508640
Let us ask her some questions when she wakes up. That was the terms of our challenge. Ask her about this War? Why it has lasted so long? If she has tried to talk to the other lords? What happened to the old lord? Opinions of other lords? How she became lord even though she looks so young? What she wants to do to these lands? That sort of thing

We should continue with light petting while asking these questions. It seems to calm her down and makes her more receptive to questioning.

>>508640
"So Taka are you a spy or the daughter of the lord of the kitsunes?"

>>508664
Also ask if she would be interested in peace with the Other lords.

>>508675
"Actually, why don't you write a challengeletter and I go to deliver it to [insert lord name here]?"

>>508689
No need to cause havoc yet. We just need to know if she is open to peace. No need for causing challenges.

>>508709
"Now that I think about it, it must make the demons very angry the dragons just keep summoning the Thunderbird to win the fights."

>>508736
Are you just trying to start havoc? Happy demon good. Just questions. No need to cause anger and more war.

So which one of them are we doing here?

>>508771
Why not all? As long as the demon girl doesn't wake up yet the MC could be thinking out loud.

>>508778

You could think of a few questions, your typical run of questions involving the war but you really just wanted to know how she became the lord of this realm when she is so young.

Though while you are waiting, “Hmm we can spin this in a way to aid us, we can write a challenge letter and deliver it to a lord, or maybe we can help them deal with that thunderbird, but we have to consider if someone here is a spy. The kitsune are resource-” you now realize you were thinking out loud, “Whoops, sorry guys I got a little ahead of myself. Taka is upset, “You think I am a spy!” “No, no, no I was just thinking that someone could be…” “YOU MEAN ME!” “It was only a theory Taka I don’t think you are a spy, Lord Shiromitsu seems to be quite clever and if anyone would have spies it would be him.” “And I am his agent? I came with you guys for fun, and adventure, not to be accused of being a spy!” “Taka you are being drastic, all I said was…

“I am sorry Taka, I was just being paranoid.” That won’t be enough so you’ll have to explain fully.” “You see Taka, there are shadows, spirits, something that are in my head. They talk to me and I can block them out but it has cause some… effects. I just let my head get ahead of me sometimes. I am sorry Taka for even considering it.” Taka doesn’t say anything but instead looks over to your friends. They all nod confirming your story. Yuki even speaks up, “She means well in everything she does, but she is overworked to death and now is… tired I’d say.” Taka sighs, “Fine.” Taka crosses her arms and sits down. Now I guess you can only wait for the demon lord to wake up.

After a few hours of passing time by Shirabu awakens, “mhhhmmm, who’s for breakfast,” Hopefully she is just groggy or this might end poorly, “Ohh Onee-chan” she looks down and blushes, “You… don’t have to keep holding me you know.” “Alright,” You help her to her feet and give her one last pat on the head for good measure “So like we agreed you will answers some of my questions, first one being, “What is an Onee-chan?” “Ohh it is the traditional word for elder sister, it is quite old but I like it. My parents were always heavy on tradition.” “Speaking of parents, where are they and how old are you?” “I am I think 57 years old.” “I am sorry what?!” This time, Taka explains, “The demon lords have always had long lifespans. The ruling family can have a natural life of upward to 600 years, though they are still mortal and can be killed.” “Which is what happened to my parents! Those rats plotted to kill them!” She throws her arms around in a semi-cute anger. “What do you mean?” “One of those three plotted to kill my parents to weaken our position” Her blue eyes turn red, “But I sure am showing them what happens when you mess with us. “Their fields are burning, their people fear for their lives as we burn the villages and devour the remains. Hahaha! Oh.” Her eyes turn back to normal. “So do you want to rule over all of the lands or are you consumed with vengeance! Here eyes turn red again, “I want to watch those three burn, I will stab them while hold them one by one by their hair so I see the light leave their eyes. That would make me ruler in the process."

How do you know that one of the lords killed your parent?

>>508876
"They died only a year after the old lord died. The timing is too consequential and I saw them bloodied and beaten, blood dripping from their many stab wounds. It was unlikely that the lords themselves committed the act but whoever did represent one of them. Mother and Father, we well liked in the country as they kept all of my people in check and in good temperament. It had to have been one of those bastards." She picks up her sword. "So which one are we going to kill first?"

>>508886
Uh. None right now. Personally I am hoping to resolve this a little more peacefully. But we will definitely figure out who killed you parents. and they will be brought to justice.

But if you want to work out some aggression a sparing match could be interesting. Not to the death or to wound or anything, just some training. Never fought a demon before.

>>508894
"Peacefully? Tell me how they peacefully solved the situation by killing my family. The others are the same, none of them will back down. Killing them is the only option, and I promise to crush the one responsible for my family deaths. I only wish I was a necromancer so I could raise and kill them again, and again." Probably not a good idea to tell her you are one.

"You wanna go a bit Onee-chan? If you fight as good as you talk this ought to be good, but I can't promise..." here eyes flash red, "You won't be hurting after this."

You know a spar with a dangerous enemy might be just what you need. You haven't actually gotten into a real fight with your new weapons and equipment and maybe you can give it a good test. “Alright, Shirabu let’s go.” She licks her lips, “Alright…” You all just travelled outside the castle. You faced opposite of the small demon. She held her katana nonchalantly in one hand, somehow blood was still refreshing dripping off it, but you didn’t want to know where that question led. “So what are the rules for a spar here in your land.” “There aren’t any, treat this as a fight, and I won’t kill you.” “Alright…” She readies herself as you do the same. “Don’t disappoint me Onee-chan.” She rushes headlong at you.

Shirabu goes for an overhead slash but you were able to brace with the combined strength of your blade and sword breaker. You feel the weight of a boulder bearing down on you as you block and you have to further brace your stance just to withstand the blow. You didn’t have to try and fight right now, the first step to winning is knowing the opponent, especially their fighting styles.

“Not bad,” she huffs as she drops her weapon. It was entangled in your sword breaker but this was, unfortunately, a sword you didn’t want to break so you tossed both the weapons aside, but you kept note of where it was. Shirabu says, “This will get boring if you just stand there Onee-chan.” She leans down to the floor on all fours. After analyzing her surroundings she sets off. You had never seen anything so fast that wasn’t Auriel's time magic. You see brief images of her dashing from side to side in a zigzag pattern toward you. She delivers with that speed a punch to your solar plexus. Again you manage to brace but you are sent sliding back almost three feet.

“So, have you decided to try yet? Or am I going to need to get more serious?”

Defense wasn’t getting you anywhere so it was time for some offense. You firmly grasp your blade in two hands and run toward your opponent. She was unarmed which typically would give you an advantage but this little girl seemed more than capable of dealing with the handicap. You swing your blade down she goes for a low shot to your legs but you shift to the side and she slides by you. “A feint eh? Not bad but you’ll have to work harder to actually hit me.” You were in a bit of a pickle you needed to stay agile enough to dodge but at the same time, you needed to be able to hit her. You widen your stance to prepare once again to attack. This time, Shirabu charges first. You meet her charge but when she lunges you jump over her and swing down, scraping her in the arm. That blow did not phase her as she turns immediately to grab you by the ankle, but she just barely misses.

Damn! There has to be some way to fight and defend at the same time. Wait just maybe… You throw your arm to the ground and sprout a group of skeletons under your command. “Haha,” the demon laughs, “You are a necromancer? Well then let's see just how this goes.” These skeletons would only be fodder for her but fodder is distracting. The skeletons fan out around the girl while you close in once again. As the skeletons one by stagger their charges. Your skeletons reach her first but are getting easily batted away with single blows that shatter their shambling bones. In one of her attacks though you come down with your swing. Nicking her again but this time in the back. “Good GOOD” she calls as she finishes off the last of the skeletons.

Shirabu, at unheard of speeds, dashes to her weapon and almost kicks it up onto her shoulder. “Let’s finish this Onee-chan.” She leans down and sprints straight toward you. This charge of hers was different from before she kept accelerating and there looked to be a red trail of blood behind her every step. Her eyes were glowing the same eerie color and she smiled with bloodthirsty excitement. You had to either block or dodge this attack somehow, but it felt as if the ground was trembling from Shirabu’s strides. You did your best to brace and prepared to parry.

Shirabu’s strike came from the side, you did manage to block but the force of the initial strike broke your arm. The blade was not finished though as it slide across yours which was forced now almost against your chest to keep it from hitting vitals. You vitals were protected but the blade's swing continued and cut off your other arm at the shoulder cleanly. You fell backwards onto the ground. Blood flowing from your shoulder. Shirabu stood above you panting and licking the blood which flew from the severing of your limb. “Ha…. ahh… ha...Thanks Onee-chan. I needed that."

Ther thanks were bitter as you were left bleeding out on the ground. “I knew this was a bad idea!” Yuki said sprinting over to you. “Damn, why did you have to be so careless like this!” She places her hands on you and the warm holy glow extends over your entire body.

So she heals us so much we become younger?

I dunno, but that would be awesome.

>>511097
Or she removes our ability to do necromancy... who knows? Is a nat 30 and our little sister wasn't aiming to kill us.

>Kiss Yuki, she earned it.

>>511123
Probably just going to get our arm back. Having all of our limbs functioning would be nice.

>>511143
Sounds good.

Kiss Yuki

>>511091
>Roll a nat20
>Lose out on an improved mental and physical state and some combat experiene
>Good thing
:^)

>>511158
Her holy magic is direct oposite of our necromancy, but her curing the curse would be a tad much.

So maybe we can't use necromancy for a while?

>>511180
>We roll a nat20
>Having literally anything negative happen in response for us
:^)

>>511193
Yuki used holy magic in necromancer, is super effective!

But really we cannot revive our parents right with necromancy and we mostly use it to create disposable mooks.

But whatever.

>>511211
We can totally revive our parents right now with necromancy. You just need to "slightly" change your definition of alive.

>>511211
What the fuck are you going on about.
Having us lose abilities as a result of us rolling a nat20 is fucking stupid.

>>511223
Shut up and vote to kiss Yuki, she earned it

Yuki yells, “Someone grab me her arm!” “On it!” Anna dashed over to your arm and despite looking grossed out carried it over to her as fast as she could. “Place it next to her shoulder.” “Okay.”

The warm glow radiating off of Yuki’s hands turns hot. The pain you felt moments ago when your arm flew from your body vanished. “Come on!” Yuki gritted her teeth in frustration. The magic she was outputting was closing your wound but that wasn’t enough, she needed to reattach your limb. “Come on, Come on, Come on, COME ON!” she yelled. The next moment the warm glow Yuki radiated burned brighter and brighter yellow. It became blinding to all around as it looked like Yuki was channeling the Sun’s own image. You felt a surge of warmth, comfort, and safety. During this intense beam of light and after a minute the beam slowly dimmed until the glow emanating from Yuki stopped altogether. You looked over to your arm, it was back! You clenched your fist while bending your arm and it felt perfect, there were no signs of wear at all. Strangely enough your other arm that was only broken seemed fixed too. You could move it just as easily even though you were sure Shirabu shattered most of the bones in your arm.

You sit up from your position with your arms spread wide in joy. You turned your torso and hugged Yuki as hard as you can. “Thank you so much, Yuki!” You could not believe the power Yuki had within her and your appreciation for her help was overflowing. “Yuki I could just…” You pull back from you hug and kiss Yuki on the lips in your moment of bliss. “Thanks, Yuki, I don’t know what I would do without you.” You smiled at your best friend, but she didn’t return one. “Yuki?” You expected her to at least acknowledge the kiss you gave her but her head was hung low and her eyes looked dim. She said weakly, “Yeah, no proble-” She collapses into your arms. “Yuki?” She didn’t respond, “Yuki?!” You turn her over to see her face properly. She looked unconscious. “Someone get her some help!” Your friends all dash over but Aki takes over for her care. The basilisk puts the back of her claw against Yuki's forehead and another on her chest. “She has a fever, but she is breathing and has a heartbeat. She’ll be fine but she needs rest and care.” You breathe a sigh of relief.

Shirabu comes up to you all, “Onee-chan, I’m sorry I got carried away....” She hangs her head,” in an apologetic fashion.

>>511418
That works.

Also appleguy what were you saying about the spar?

>>511436
Yes.

He made a whole rant about it just being a spar and we almost lost an arm.

>>511436
>>511447
I only operate on what I know or assume at the time.
If I knew ahead of time that this would happen of course I wouldn't suggest a spar. But I didn't know this would happen.

>>511457
Some people asumed correctly that fighting a DEMON LORD even as a spar was a bad idea, but noo...

>>511457
We warned you bro, we warned you about the stairs.

>>511466
And yet none of these people were around when we voted. Do you want me to just admit I messed up and made a bad call. Then cool, my error. If you want to stop such things in the future then be here for the votes. But talking about how it was a bad vote way later on doesn't change anything.

They voted for a board game then there was another vote were the DM put a vote for a spar despite the board game vote made previously. What are you guys, five? We have to lock away everything dangerous less you drink the cleaning supplies?

The reasons we voted for a board game still applied, as in, we were a mere human facing the leader of a race of demons.

>Protests saying we were jerks to monkey boy
>Then protests when we give a chance for monkey boy to get laid with someone who is not the MC and leave him someplace were he is somewhat safer than in the road.

>>511515
So the theme of the day is read the damn posts. So read them. The sparing came after the whole board game stuff. We beat the challenge by petting her then voted to have a sparing match as some training. There was nothing attached to this. This was not a replacement for the board game. Why do people keep bringing up the board game plan. That plan is super in the past. Are we going to also mention how we should have gotten more info and not have trusted the Grand General of the mermaids.

>>511522
I protest the monkey boy part because you are calling him Monkey boy, still.
Further more how do you know he is safe. #Remenbertobeproperlyparanoid2016
He is probably dead. Which is probably my fault somehow.

Can we decide to stay and sleep in the same room with Aki and Yuki? So we can watch over Yuki and Aki can watch over us?

Sorry guys its gonna be a bit some things came up

You looked at the demon and then back at Yuki. “It’s okay, you’ll just have to apologize to Yuki when she wakes up.” The demon still hangs her head low. You reach out and rub her head a bit. “I told you it’s okay , you just got a little carried away during the spar, you’re a demon, after all, just try to be a bit more careful in the future. For Onee-chan’s sake, okay? “Mmmh!” Shirabu smiles and nods her head. “In which case, we should head back to my castle for now. I have plenty of rooms available and if my advisors say otherwise I’ll just “exercise” my right of rule.” She grins.

“Alright.” You stand and pick up Yuki and carry her over back to the castle. Inside you found Yuki a room immediately and set her down on a bed.

Looks like you get to enjoy the hospitality of a demon lord tonight. Hopefully, it will all go smoothly but you think on what would be best to do tonight.

After placing her in her bed you take a long look a Yuki’s face. She has the face of enthusiasm and a caretaker. She had cared for you ever since you were young and her bright personality has always brought a smile to your indifferent face. She has always had your best intentions at heart and cares about you more than anything else. You think again that you were truly lucky to have her as your best friend. The more that you look at her, though… You bring your hand to her face and part her hair so you could see her face more clearly. The more you look at her, the more beautiful she becomes. You feel a small beat slowly rising in your chest. You take Yuki’s hand into your own. Her hands are quite warm, likely from that intense spell she managed to cast. The same warmth that saved you… you slowly run your thumb up and down the back of her hand to feel more of her warmth. Just minutes ago you kissed her. You were high on joy and adrenaline when she healed your arm, but maybe now that was more than mere impulse. You have never thought about it too much until now but, you are feeling something more for Yuki. You two were best friends and had always been close but right now, you want to be closer. You couldn’t discuss your feelings properly with her asleep but you say quietly under your breath to her. “I think I love you Yuki,” You bring her hand up to your face and lightly kiss it before setting it down at her side.

After a few seconds of reflection, you got up and left her sleeping peacefully. You had to confront these feeling sooner or later but first, there was someone you had to talk to. “Aki,” you call to your basilisk companion. “Is it okay if we talk?” “Of course,” Aki hugs you, “I was terrified you know… your arm was severed and you were bleeding out. I wanted to rush to your side like Yuki but she is the healer here. But now that you’re safe and with me, I don’t want to let you go.” You would return Aki’s hug normally but right now you had something important to discuss. “Aki, do you, remember when we talked about sharing feelings and that I would ask you first?” “?” She seems a bit confused but she is waiting for you to continue.” “Well…. I…. uhh….” You scratch your head nervously. You may be 15 now but age alone doesn’t prepare you for moments like these. “I think… I love Yuki.”

Aki freezes. It was like her body was suddenly encased in ice, and no matter how much she tried she wouldn’t be able to thaw herself. “Aki... “ “She holds, “Aki? Aki please you need to at least hear me out.” After these words, she slowly sets you down and she curls up in front of you. There was the beginning of tears forming in her eyes, “Are you… breaking up with me?” “No! Heavens no! I would never want that!” "Then what do you mean by ‘you think you are in love with Yuki.’” “I meant to say 'Aswell', I love you, Aki, truly but I might love Yuki in the same way…” “Do you love her more than me?” You could see the droplets running down her face now. "What? that isn't what I am-" "I saw you kiss her, openly in front of everyone, *sniff* we never...." She pauses and looks down, "Am I not enough? *sniff* is there something wrong with me?

Aki…
>Convince her that you want to love her and Yuki equally d20+4
>Yes Aki, I am breaking up with you
>Write in

>>511969
Let us just say that we are confused at this moment and need time to think about our feelings. But we should also reassure her that we love her and don't want to lose her.

>>512022

“Aki,,, why would you even think that? I love you and would never want to lose you.” You hug her. “I am… confused and don’t know what to think. Which is why I wanted to talk to you about it. I thought maybe you might be able to tell me what this was and if there was anyone who should know about my feelings it has to be you.” You hold her a little tighter. “Aki I know what I said was jarring and I’m sorry if I ever made you feel that way, just please give me some time to sort these things out.”

“I never ever want to lose you Aki, and I am sorry for scaring you two times in one day like this.” “Okay…” She sounds a little hesitant, but she does hug you back. You do need to sort out your feelings, but you can only hope that whatever you end up deciding is the right choice.

You head to bed shortly after that. You were both physically and now emotionally drained and just wanted to sleep. You went to your room that Shirabu said was just for you. It was quite large with a huge king sized bed. There were fancy decorations set about. Fine hide rugs, velvet curtains with a dim light of candles in the corner. The burning wax left a distinct tinge in your nostrils as you walked over to your bed for the night. “This really is way too big, but I guess it gives you space to really sprawl out. You start to take off your clothes before heading to bed when you are suddenly jumped on from the back. “Huh?” “Onee-chan I’m glad you are here, now we can sleep together like sisters always do!” Shirabu said happily. Do they? You think back. Lily and you did sleep together a couple times, but you were both like 5 and 7 years old. You look down at the giddy young demon who seems to be earnestly excited for tonight, even if it was just you two laying down next to each other. “Alright, but just because you are so cute.” you pat her on the head, “hehe!” The two of you prepare for bed in your own ways. You just simply change into your pajamas and Shirabu just jumped in after you and nuzzled up close and got comfortable. You wish you had this child's carefree attitude when it came to things. It still amazes you that they young demon lord has such staunch personalities, One was an earnest child who longed for family. The other is a bloodthirsty avenger who takes pleasure in fighting and kills indiscriminately. Just being near her could be a danger, but for some odd reason sitting in this bed with her just felt good. You did want the best for this kid and maybe you could even bring out more of her cute side if you try.

>>512191

Before heading off to dreamland though you think about what is going to happen tomorrow. You think you did more than enough talking with the demon lord regarding the way which means Kakuri in the north would be the wisest option. Though it seems Shirabu is eager to get out and fight on the front lines.

>Simply head to Kakuri, leave Shirabu here and tell her to go nuts
>Head to Kakuri, leave Shirabu here and tell her to stay in the castle for now
>Ride out with Shirabu and cause some chaos for Kakuri, make him come to you.
>Head somewhere else on the island
>Write in

Last post for the night. Don't know when I will be able to start running tomorrow but expect it to be between 11:30am-1pm PST

>>512194
>Head to Kakuri, leave Shirabu here and tell her to stay in the castle for now

>>512196
>You heard everyone said that the snake Lord was... a snake in personality. Maybe you should find out some more before you go to see him? Just because the other Lords have been honorable so far doesn't mean Kakuri will be. Plus you are mentally tired and you could rest a few days. Why not stay a day or three at the castle? That also let's you sort things with Aki and Yuki. Plus you prefer it was one of those two ( or the two of them) the one who took your virginity away and not some random monster.

This works >>512353, but also sent someone to see if Adrian is okay. Otherwise I agree with this plan. Also have Anna and Victoria defeat as many challengers as they can un one day to increase your reputation among the demons. I think the Imps shouls be the ones to go as they csn turn invisible and are basically our ninja. Does this work?

So it would basically be:

>Find out more about Lord Kakuri,
just because the other Lords have been honorable so far doesn't mean Kakuri will be.
>Have Anna and Victoria win as many fights as they can by day to make your reputation strong amongst demons.
>Sent the ninja imps to check on Adrian since they can turn invisible.

Kakuri by hearsay has been only described as a snake both in body and spirit. You thought when you started that Shirabu would be the most dangerous warlord, but maybe Kakuri was the true threat. Perhaps it would be best to remain here for a bit and gather a bit more information if you can. You also needed some time to properly sort out your own feelings with Yuki and Aki. Not to mention the fallout that might occur because of it.

You fell asleep that night with Shirabu in her surprisingly comfy bed. The next morning you greeted your team outside of Yuki’s room. She was still but Aki checked her fever and it was subsiding rapidly. “That’s good, let's stay here for a day or two everyone we need to regroup for when we go to Kakuri. For now, though I will stay and make sure Yuki is alright. Your friends seem to understand and all start to turn away to wonder the castle. Anna and Victoria get into another “conversation” about the usual, “So you wanna go blow some time?” “Doing the usual?” “Yup, let’s race to 25.” “You’re on!” They head out of the castle you would be concerned if it wasn’t those two but just in case, “Rozalin could you be kind and make sure they don’t get into too much trouble.” “You say that but is there much I can really do to stop them?” “You can at least defuses situations.” Which was all you could really hope for.

There was something else on your mind, “Nessera” “Yes young one?” “Would you mind going to Ryuga’s and checking in on Adrian. I feel a bit bad for leaving him like that and want to make sure he is okay.” “Stealthfully I assume?” “Of course,” “Very well, though that monkey should be able to get out of dangerous situations. He has a knack for doing that.” You give a small grimace at her offhand remark, as she flies off.

>>513170

Now then, you sit by Yuki’s side waiting for her to awaken. When she does you have to talk to her about many things, but maybe first we can go and do something fun. “I got it!” “Shirabu?” “Yes, Onee-chan?” “Do you got into town much?” “Occasionally but usually my advisors bring me things I need,” “Well do you know of a place that sells clothing?” “Ehhh,” She looks down at her dress, “I think I know the place where my parents got me this, it was in a nearby town.” Perfect.

After another hour you heard Yuki groan and shift around in her bed. You jump up and grab her hand. “Yuki? Are you okay?” “eehhh, my head...hurts.” She mutters as she slowly awakens. She places a hand on her head as she sits up. “What happened?” “You healed my wound but in the process must have used up a lot of your energy. You passed out shortly after and now we are here.” “Oh… sorry about that.” “Sorry? You don’t need to apologize for anything, you got my arm back and your actions made me realize… things. Anyways you should rest for a bit before getting up, I know just the thing for you after a hard day of work yesterday.” “Hmm?” “hehe,” You laugh as you point your finger out the window of the room to a nearby town. You then boisterously shout, “SHOPPING OF COURSE!”

The MC today should
>Stay at the castle and sort out their feelings (how?)
>Go shopping with Yuki, Taka, and Shirabu
>Go out and meet up with Victoria, Anna, and Rozalin and maybe blow off some steam
>The Joy of Sculpting with Aki
>Write in

>>513173
>Go shopping with Yuki, Taka, and Shirabu
It would make Yuki happy. And spending time with people helps with figuring out feelings.

>>513185

“Shopping?” She still seems to be a bit out of it. “With who? Where?” “With me, Taka and Shirabu and over there.” you held you pointing position. “Me too?” Shirabu points to herself. “Wait!” you hear a yell behind you. You think I am going with her, again?!” Taka uproars. “Come on Taka, it could not have been that bad, and this time you are going with a seasoned veteran. And a new friend.” “Friend?” Shirabu again points to herself. “Yes. Think of today as a bonding experience, and part of your making up to Yuki for yesterday. “ “Alright, speaking of which,” The demon child walks over to Yuki, “I am terribly sorry for putting you into a situation.” Yuki makes her vibrant smile. “It’s okay Shirabu, just be more careful next time.” Yuki then smiles mischievously, “hehe, but you will be the first today.” “The first what?” the demon asks. You lean down and whisper to her, “Brace yourself, your repentance is neigh.” What do you mean by tha-” Yuki jumps from her seat grabs Shirabu’s arm and sprints off. “Whaaaaaaaaaaaa-!!!” The demon yelled in futility. Taka shivered at the familiar sight. You put your hand on her shoulder, “It’s okay, I’m here for you.” The kitsune hung her head low, in resignation for what is to come.

You were surprised at first at how fast Yuki bounced back but her consumer mentality propelled her forward. All signs of fatigue were gone as you four ran from store to store. It must have been quite a sight for the locals as 3 girls were sprinting between clothing and accessory stands. Not to mention one of the three girls was dragging their lord behind them so quickly the lord's feet never touched the ground while Yuki was in motion. “Onee-chan! I want to get off Yuki’s wild ride!” We all do Shirabu, we all do…

Yuki put all of you through the works as you expected, the worst victim, this time, was Shirabu. “Ahh, we just need a tinge of cuteness to match this set of clothing, the contrast of this jewel matches perfectly with your image!” The young warlord was covered in jewels and was trying on different combinations of hats, clothes, jewels, necklaces imaginable. “How about a dark sun hat… No that wouldn’t do we would have to reorganize everything…. Ahh! Of course! What we need are pink ribbons! It's perfect it contrasts the black but blends with the red! All we need is a proper hair style.” Shirabu through it all stood there assaulted. She was a powerful demon warlord but her commitment to apologize and with you present kept her from screaming. She looks at you and mimes with her mouth “Help… Me…” “Just a bit more,” You give her a thumbs up.

>>513328

You focus your attention back now to your energetic best friend. She always was at her brightest at times like this. “Hey Yuki, do you want to help me pick out some necklaces?” “Of course!” You and Yuki look over a small stand, “So what were you thinking? Diamond, ruby? Pearls.” she shakes her head, no it's still a little early for pearls.” She raced through hundreds of possibilities in her head, all while speaking rapid fire to herself. Looking at her like this you couldn't help but chuckle, “Haha.” “Whats wrong?” Yuki asks. “Heh, nothing just though about how you look so happy when we are out doing things like.” “Why of course! Fashion is bot a mandatory part of our lives and perfecting it is my goal, it will always be a joy to work like this.” “Haha, yeah you’re right.” You to Yuki and then down at the necklaces in front of you. “Hey, Yuki….” “Yes?”

“Yes?” Yuki looked at you expectantly. Before answering you looked down at your friendship locket you had. “Do you remember back when you told me you loved someone but they didn’t know.” “Y-Yeah, but where is this coming from? We are shopping right now. “I know Yuki I just... “ You take a deep breath, “When you talked about that… you were talking about me weren’t you.” Yuki’s eyes go a bit wide and the ruby necklace she was holding slipped out of her hands onto the stand. “W-What are you saying?” “I am saying that I know you love me Yuki.” “huh,” she is processing what is happening. She reaches back down for the necklace and plays it off, “I don’t know what you are…” her hands start shaking and she can’t seem to get a grip on the gem. “D-Damnit.” She breathes heavily, “I need to use the restroom.” she darts off. “Yuki!” Last time when Aki did this you didn’t know whether to run after her or not, this time, you knew you had to.

You were about to take off after her when you hear behind you. “Where is Yuki going, Onee-chan?” Shirabu and Taka are together waiting for their next barrage, but it won’t come just yet.” “She went off on her own, I’ll have to grab her, but you two can head home for the day you have been through enough.” “Praise the abyss!” The young lord yelled as she skipped off home. “Praise the great fox!” and Taka joins her in the skip back to the castle. Now time to get back to it.

“Yuki wait!” she was in the distance and you had to wade through crowds to get to her. “Yuki! Please stop!” you shouted as you shoved your way through the streets. She ran down an alley. You caught up only a minute after her as it happened to be a dead end. Yuki had her head in her arm and was leaning into the wall, please go away,” she says softly.

“Yuki please I just want to talk with you about this.” You steel yourself, “Yuki, the reason I asked is because I realize now that I... “ you close your eyes for a second, “I love you too.” She looks up at you, as you slowly walk toward her. “When you healed me yesterday I kissed you in joy and when you passed out I cried out in panic. That kiss wasn’t fake and my feelings for you now go beyond what we had as best friends. You reached your best friend and embraced her. “I’ll say it again Yuki. I love you.” She seems stunned and her arms hang limply between yours.

“It’s true, I do love you for longer than you could imagine, but… why now?” “Because, the more I am with you, the more attracted I feel, your charms, your personality, your demeanor all of it. You and I have always been close but right now... “ You strengthen your hug, “I want to be closer. You always know how to talk to me and help me when I am down. I love everything about you Yuki, it just took me time to understand my own feelings. But now…” You pull away from your hug just enough to kiss her, unlike your kiss yesterday this one lasted much longer. You felt incredibly warm and Yuki’s arms slowly wrapping themselves around you. When you finally pull back Yuki was the first to speak, “I love you, but this timing…” You admit that the timing wasn’t ideal in the slightest but you already talked with her about this. “Yuki I said I could be open to anything involving love and relationships remember, well now I love you, and I love Aki. I want both of you to be happy and so we can all be happy together.” “hehe, how idealistic, but what if I want you all to myself now” She squeezes you tightly.

“Yuki, I want everyone to be happy and I think you can understand that Aki would be 10x happier if I was with her.” At least, as she is now. “But I don’t want to lose you either Yuki, so please do this for me.” You kiss her again. You make contanct but she pulls away before you do. “That really isn’t fair, you talking like that and kissing me, but... it would be best for everyone right now.” Thank you so much Yuki, you plant a huge kiss of Joy on her. “Mphmmm?” She was surprised by your suddenness. You hug and swing her around. “I love you Yuki, thank you for always understanding me.” “Hehe, just try not to get too carried away like usual.” No promises, but you were just too happy right now. Not only did she accept your feelings but she also accepted your wish to share yourself with Aki! How could you not overreact, if only a little?

After your moment of jubilation, you and Yuki hold hands as you walk back to the castle. “You know…” Yuki starts, “I actually liked you for quite a long time.” “Oh? How long? “A bit after we met,” “?! but we were only 8 years old at the time!” “hehe, it's a little silly when you think about it like that, but when I first saw you I thought you were the prettiest boy I had ever seen. You had such a nice face, slender limbs, and you had a matching kind personality. After our first couple days together I found out you were actually a girl but your entire demeanor still said boy to me.” You were getting red, you remember that in the past literally, everyone you met thought you were a boy. It wasn’t until you met with Yuki that people started thinking of you as a girl. “Hehe, I remember yelling at the other boys ‘she’s a girl can’t you tell?!’ when only a short time before that I thought the same thing. After learning you you were though I thought ‘look how cool this girl is, not caring about her appearance, and rolling with the boy cover.’ I was always a girly girl, I liked everything pink and I was playing dress up as soon as I could walk. So your contrast was so, staunch, striking and vibrant. I wanted initially to learn more about you, understand you.”

>>514009

Yuki looks up the to the sky, “Do you remember the day when those boys tried to steal my necklace and toys and you scared them off and you said, 'We can't let them try that ever again.' Or the time my dad came home extra late from work and I couldn’t get back into my house. You stayed with me for almost six hours saying, ‘It’s okay Yuki you’ll just have to stay at my place, for now, I’ll make sure you are safe.’ What about the time you argued with an adult who knocked me over when we were riding our bikes. You yelled at the man and you even helped me fix my bike and clean my scrapes. What I learned from all that was that you were simply a beautiful person. You didn’t need people to tell you that, and you didn’t want people to tell you that because of your appearance, but I always knew.” Her fingers rub against yours. “I then made it my mission to make you as beautiful as I knew you were on the inside, on the outside. I knew you wouldn’t care, but it was something that only I could understand and do for you. Since then 5 years have passed, and here we are, stuck in a strange land together. Over that time I became enthralled with you. I always wanted you to be happy, to have fun, to enjoy and better yourself. And forever I would be with you. Even now I feel that way.” Yuki turns her head to look you in the eyes, “It was slow at first, but now, I love you so much…” “Yuki…” You meet again for another kiss as you enjoy your stroll back to the castle.

When you got closer to the castle you let go of Yuki’s hand, you didn’t want people to jump to conclusions without first talking to Aki about all this. When you meet up with everyone you noticed that Anna and Victoria were badly bruised up but were laughing away as they remember the day, “You remember that one idiot that tried to hit you with a rubber mallet?” “Haha, or that one girl that tried to beat me by only slapping my face.” At least it looked like they enjoyed themselves even if their bodies didn’t. “Overall I would say it went well they each defeated 15 opponents and now have a ‘reputation’” Rozalin informed you. Nessera isn’t back yet with your report but you figure it would take here a while to get to Ryuga and back regardless. Shirabu was flaunting her new clothes that were just a fine black and red dress with some pink ribbons mixed with her red jewelry. You couldn’t see Taka, though, she got off easy from Yuki today, maybe she is concerned she might try and collect her due when we got back.

Looked to be a pretty average night at the castle and you figured you had enough time to get something small done before you head to bed.

Hmmm, you really do wonder where Taka she came back with Shirabu so maybe she knew. “Shirabu, do you know where Taka went?” “Ohh she went to her room as soon as we got back, said something about safety from the fashion animal or something weird.” Sounds about right. You head to Taka’s room and give her door a loud knock. “Taka are you in there?” There isn’t an answer. You try again, ‘Taka!”... … … still nothing. You reach for the door handle and it was unlocked. You slowly open the door and peer into the room. You see Taka laying in bed asleep. Must have been a rough day for the little girl.

Looking around you notice that the window to her room was just barely ajar and there a small piece of paper of paper near where Taka is sleeping. Also, Taka seems to be quite still for a sleeping. Usually, there is a bit of movement when you inhale and exhale but maybe Taka was just so small it didn’t make any difference. Or maybe….

>>514232
"She isn't here isn't she?" The thing is, if the Taka in bed is fake, then what should you do? Both demons and Kitsune could do a trick like this, but the demons seem to be mostly of the battle crazy type. So did Tara leave on her own or was kidnapped?

Maybe you could ask Mother or the old man. Do you still have that thing he have you to talk to him?

>>514232

Something fishy could be going on here. You quietly draw your weapon and walk over to the bed. The still Taka remains still as you close in step by step. When you reach the bed you now see that the Taka in bed was actually a few stuffed pillows. You then examine the paper, but you are careful not to touch it just in case magic is at work here. The paper turns out to be a small note which reads, “If she has zingli hak su Shirabu then kusdf lok tara continue to ishmein drei. The paper was clouded in a faint blue haze that covered words on the paper. An illusion spell of sorts probably to prevent others from reading the paper though you were able to make out at least a few words. All of this was incredibly troubling, but you can’t waste your energy on going on a wild chase at the moment, but maybe you can goad her out somehow. “Aww, that’s too bad. Shirabu made some delicious deep-fried-tofu she called Aburaage or something, I figured Taka would have figured she would have wanted some. Oh well. You slowly walk back out the room close the door and sheathe your weapons. There wasn’t much else to do so you might as well just return to the dinner table.

“Where did you go? Aki asks when you return to the dining room, “Just the restroom,” You sit down at the table and prepare to eat the meal Shirabu’s servants managed to whip up. It was actually a fine fish fillet. You had some reservations about demon fish fillet but after Victoria dove right in and didn’t die you figured it said. You begin eating when you hear a running come down the hall. “Sorry I am late everyone, did I miss the food?” your young kitsune said energetically.

She is probably up to something but you also want to throw her off her game. “You didn’t miss it Taka, in fact, you are just in time.” “Alright!” She sits down at the and readies her weapons of choice for devouring a hearty meal, “bring on the to..” She takes a good look at what was being served in front of her, “fu…” She looks up at you across the table. You smile, she frowns. “Disappointed Taka, I would have figured you the type to enjoy fish, though this might just be a blind stereotype of mine.” She “laughs” at your dumb comment, “Ha. ha. Don’t worry I love fish!” She starts eating at the speed of light, and she is moving her body to a better position to get up for the chair. “Try not to eat so fast you choke. You might miss my special announcement.” “Special announcement?!” Yuki blushes. Errr not quite yet Yuki, but no matter. Taka has her eyes locked on you and awaits your announcement. Dramatically stand up and hold your cup up in front of you. “I have decided that I will officially adopt Taka! Though I don’t like the idea of being called a mom so you’ll just have to be my little sister with Shirabu.” “Another Onee-Chan?!” Shirabu lights up at your claim.” All of your other friends appear concerned. “Uhhh, are you sure you can jut do that?” Anna asks while looking for confirmation from another. “I guess?” Rozalin shrugged. There were surprised but nothing compared to the surprise of Taka who yelled loudly, “WHAT?!” “Now Taka I know this is sudden but I just wanted to let you know how much of a good addition I thought you have been to the team so I wanted to make it permanent if possible.” “O-Oh really….” She is clearly jarred as you would expect anyone to be after they just declared adopted but this works. “Well, I have to think it over,” Taka manages to spit out. “I mean I am glad you want to take me with you, but it has been maybe a week, this is too sudden.” “Awww, no second Onee-chan…” Shirabu hangs her head in disappointment. “W-Well I said I would think about it right? For now, we should just eat our dinner as normal, we can talk about this later.” “Agreed” you sit back down and “enjoy” your meal. Taka seems to be a least 100 different shades of confused but stays through all of dinner.

>>514565

After dinner is finished most of your friends head off to their respective rooms, Shirabu even waves at you to join her in her room like last night. You wanted to talk to Aki tonight, but right now you had to address another issue right in front of you. “So…” The kitsune remains seated across from you, “What was that all about?”

“What are you saying Taka, I am genuine when I say I want to adopt you. You are just so cute after all” She looks dismissive, You sigh, “You see Taka a few months ago I lost my family.” You paused for a moment, you only wanted to do it for dramatic effect but you truly did feel a tear welling up in your eye when you remember that day. You wipe away the tear before continuing, “I was taken here by a vampire and in the process, my family was killed. I appreciate my friends more than anything, but I also want to form a family. I am sorry I brought this onto you so suddenly but please would you at least consider it." We got clothes, food, and even friends around your age here. This is ultimately a selfish request of mine, but I also believe you might enjoy yourself as you have been these past few days."

The kitsune looks you up and down as if she is judging both you and your story. Your game with the kitsune depended on this one interaction. You were barely lying but if she is a spy or informant or whatever she would be judgemental no matter the situation. Taka sighs, “Alright, I’ll stick with you guys for a while longer.” “Wonderful!” You run over to where Taka was sitting and give her a big hug. You have been doing this a lot recently. “Ahhh, try not to choke your new sister now would you?” “Sorry just got a little excited there. Though I am not going to be excited as her. “Hmm?” The demon lord of the castle walks back into the dining room, “Onee-chan are we going to bed yet, I am tired.” You point at Taka, Shirabu questions, “Nee-chan?” Taka looks to you and points at herself “Nee-chan?!” You smile give her a thumbs up before Shirabu jumps onto the kitsune, “Nee-chan!” you and the young lord share a small giggle as you carry your newly acquired sisters back for bed. “W-Wait a minute we are sleeping together?!” Taka says nervously while fidgeting. “It's the rules Nee-chan!" Sisters always sleep together!” The demon asserts. “I’m not so sure about that…” “Ahh!” Shirabu jumps onto her new sister. “Nee-chan your so fluffy! She rubs Taka's tail. “Ahh, no don’t touch there!” “hehe.” For a setting intended for sleep, it was quite lively, but that had to end. “Now you two play nice.” “Okay Onee-chan” Shirabu puts her attention back onto you as you lay down and she curls up next to you. Taka lays down on the opposite side facing away from you.

While looking at Taka you think about the situation. The thought of Taka betraying you all hurts but you need to know more before getting accusatory. For now, she has agreed to be your sister which may be exactly what she wants if she is spying on you. You are pretty sure you fooled her into thinking you were sincere. Part of you was. But the other part of you knows that spying on a spy who doesn’t know you are spying on them is far better than her running off on you. “Good night you two.” You pet both Shirabu and Taka’;s heads before heading to sleep.

The second day in the demon lord’s castle was drawing close but what do you intend to do with that time tomorrow.

We have been delaying this way too long already.

We need to resolve this fast, no way a random monster will be our first!

You wake up the next morning still next to your new sisters. Shirabu was still was attached to you and Taka was laying off by herself. As you sit up and rub your eyes you think that the best thing to do today is talking to Aki about the whole situation with you, her and Yuki. “Augghh I hope it goes right,” “What goes right Onee-chan?” The demon yawns as she wakes up still hanging onto you. “Nothing important,” you rub her head in reassurance, “Just make sure you and Taka get along okay?” “Okay!” Hopefully, they could find something pleasant to do during the day, you doubt Taka would try anything if she was malicious toward you and even if she did Shirabu would just kill her on the spot.

You get up stretch and head out to the main hall where most of your friends were at. Anna and Victoria were going to rest today, which made sense given how they beat up almost half of a small village. Yuki was working on her fashions and today it seems Serena was her victim. Tessera still hasn’t come back yet hopefully she does soon or else you might have another problem. For now, though you turn your attention to one of the women you love, “Aki is it alright if I talk to you for a bit.” “Sure, but you’ll have to help me with some sculpting today.” “I can try.” You wanted to talk with Aki alone, for a bit you thought it might be easier to talk to her with Yuki but you might be indirectly pressuring her into a decision. You walk off with Aki outside to the main courtyard where she donned her beret and sunglasses, cracked her claws to limber up and put claws to clay. All the while she had her trusty and nerve racketed assistant.

How are you going to talk to Aki about the situation?

Hmm, you think what you should say in this situation but maybe it will work itself out while you help her sculpt. Aki talks chat you up when preparing, “Did you have anything in mind for art today, I always think it is fun asking others to see what you end up creating together.” “Hmmm,” you remember one of your teachers showing you a picture of a famous statue in Italy made by some famous guy who you think might have been a member of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, but you didn’t know for sure if turtles were allowed to sculpt in the past. “I have an idea it is a human man. “Ohh really? Like Adrian,” “Yeah but older and naked.” “N-Naked?” “Yes for the beauty of the anonymit- I mean anatomy!” Yeah, that one. “If you say so…” You kind know how the sculpture looks but it was just a well-toned human man so it can’t be too hard to mess up.

While working on your hopeful masterpiece you make small talk with Aki, “So how was your day yesterday?” “Boring,” she huffs, “You went off with everyone but at least I had Serena to spend some time with.” “That girl really does love you doesn’t she?” “Hehe, almost as much as I love you.” you a cough in surprise at her statement and you feel a winding up in your chest as you think, “That just isn’t fair Aki…” She smiles away as you work but you know for sure she hasn’t forgotten you told her about your feelings for Yuki, maybe she is upset about you going out with Yuki yesterday. “Sorry for not spending too much time with you yesterday, I wanted to make sure Yuki was alright after what happened.” “If you say so…” She brushes off your attempted explanation with a slightly annoyed voice. Yeah, she’s upset. “Listen, Aki, we need to talk about all this.” “Indeed you do,” you can feel her making upset eyes at you through her mask. You take a deep breath, “Aki…
