Chapter 182-3
[Part 3/4]
"You foolish girl. You really used this technique without understanding it, didn't you? It's astonishing, really, that with such a mind, you managed to activate it... What a ridiculous youkai power. Or should I say, divine power?"
"What on earth...?"
As the white fox was about to ask her step-sister another question about her illusion, the situation suddenly changed. A black torrent rushed past her cheek, followed by a scream—a young man's scream. Realizing what was happening, the white fox turned around and let out a silent cry.
In the distance, she saw a young man being blown away by the black fox's tail. The conversation between the black and white half-sisters was interrupted by the punishment dealt to the lowlife who tried to exploit the moment.
"What?!"
"How rude! Interrupting our conversation like that... It's not allowed. You shouldn't be swayed by the lowly monkey's sweet talk. It's a disgrace to the name of the youkai fox to be fooled by such words. We are the ones who bewitch and drive people mad, not the other way around."
The black fox acts first, not giving the white fox a chance to plot. From behind, she forces her fingers into the white fox's mouth. The black fox's slender fingers invade her tongue, inner cheek, and white teeth, stirring up saliva. She teases and dominates the white fox. If the white fox tries to spit it out, her tongue gets pinched, forcing her to submit.
The violation goes beyond just her mouth. The black fox's sharp claws grab one of her breasts through the glove. Her slender neck is licked by a red tongue. Nine black tails caress the white fox's belly, grip her waist, and entwine her legs. They stroke her tail, twist into her inner thighs, restrain her, dominate her, stimulate her, making her convulse and then relax. She is subdued.
"Ugh...!""Hehe, good girl, good girl. You're so obedient. Is that why you believed the monkey's words? You need some education, don't you?"
The white fox doesn't fall, but her limbs are completely relaxed, leaving her powerless. The black fox coos at her white, young sibling like a baby, then wraps her arms around her. She stretches out her arms, shades her eyes, and points them towards the man lying in the snow.
"No... Stop..."
"It's okay, leave it to me. I'll make it quick. A cheap monkey with sweet words can be easily forgotten with a little fire. Hehe, or should I overwrite you instead?"
"Wh...?"
The white fox, powerless and turned into a puppet, could not resist the black fox that sweetly manipulated her. Any faint struggle was meaningless. Slowly, the paws of the two foxes were pointed at the man trying to stand up. And then...
"Ambushes are so uncouth, okay!?"
The black fox turned back, releasing the white fox. Three needles came rushing in at sonic speed. They were coated with poison, and she swatted them away. Something was lurking. Hidden? Who was it?
"No, this is... stealing and interfering? You've got some guts, huh?"
She clicked her tongue as she watched the needles bounce and stab into the snow, "dispersing" into nothing. She returned her gaze to the monkey, who was recovering and glaring with a fierce look.
...This guy is a burden. This guy is a wedge. This guy is the starting point. It's getting worse. Before she get any more involved and things get messy, she should drive him out. Or should she just deal with him?
"...!!"
"Stop, please...!!"
A surge of youkai energy flooded the area. Even an adult would faint or lose control in the face of such overwhelming power, but the young man stood firm as if he was used to it. The abandoned white fox begged the black fox to stop what was about to happen, but her pleas went ignored. The black fox had no intention of showing mercy to the determined monkey before her.
Before the monster within the monkey could stir again, she would take him down... that was a firm decision.
"!? What is this...?"
As the black fox attempted to use some kind of technique, she looked up at the sky, furrowing her brow in the face of "pressure."
"Eh...!?"
"What the!!?"
Both the white fox and the young man sensed it. Something was coming from the cloudy sky.
A shadow emerged from the thick, dark clouds. Its sound sliced through the air. The presence of something important was approaching.
Everyone braced themselves for what was about to come from above. And it had finally arrived.
'(*^_^*) Anyone can steal my gaze; I am the ultimate idol!!"
"...Huh?"
It was a silly comment that made them feel a bit lost. Someone replied in a dazed way. And then it came. The big white spider showed up. She dropped down from above. The only difference was its size.
...A giant spider, as big as a hill, dove down with a happy face.
'(* ^_^) I'm here to stand tall!!'
The giant spider stood proudly on the ground. It struck a pose. Everyone around fell silent. The spider looked around with a blank expression. And then....
'( : `д: ´) Congratulations, Tanganeko-sensei (タンガンネコ?), on your promotion!!'
"Now, what are we talking about here!!"
The black fox unleashed a curse flame at the spider and made a quick comment. A clash followed, marking the start of their fierce battle.
"...Well, they should have said that during the last update, right?"
That was the young man's murmur as he witnessed the sudden life-and-death struggle right in front of him....
* * *
It was truly a natural disaster. Flames poured down like rain, while fox-shaped lightning streaked through the sky, accompanied by torrents and waves of mud. Trees shot up from the ground, and rock avalanches crashed down around them. Water bullets filled the entire scene, creating chaos everywhere.
'( ^ ^ ) Are you planning to fight me!!'
The giant stupid spider took the full brunt of the attack, but it showed no signs of pain or fear. With a smug look, it slowly moved forward, and then it spat out spider silk.
'( ; : `д: ´) Nagoshi No Harae!!'
"Ugh!!"
The high-pressure, supersonic spider silk was as hard as steel, sweeping away everything in its path. It sliced through the snowy field, shredding everything around it. Just a slight touch from those thin threads could sever a limb.
The black fox barely managed to scatter illusions in every direction, dancing through the storm of spider silk. It unleashed its magic, scattering away before the spider's exoskeleton, remaining unharmed.
"This is a pain...!!"
'Σ(>Д<) How can a maiden be caught in this mess!!'
"I'm a maiden too, you know...!!?"
The furious, angry spider launched more attacks, and the black fox elegantly dodged them while cursing. Both sides were stuck in a stalemate, lacking a decisive blow against each other... only the damage around them kept growing.
"Ugh, this is just chaotic...!!?"
And there I was, peeking from my hiding spot, astonished by this epic showdown. I really wanted someone to explain what was going on.
"..."
After checking once more from the snowy hill to see that the shockwaves weren't reaching me, I turned my gaze to the princess or the mother and the little fox I was holding. Unfortunately, the former was still unable to recover from her headache, and the latter was too confused and shaken to say anything.
'Shall I explain it?'
"That would help──Wait, why are you here?"
'To explain that, I need to describe the current situation in this space. It might take a while, okay?'
It was a familiar-sounding response to my question directed at the hummingbird perched on my shoulder.
"Whoa...!? Y-yes, please tell me!?"
