The Fox Goddess

"Of course, I am richer than you, while you are still crying and wishing for something from your Mother. I'm already a successful woman that you can only dream about~" Yuki's voice was like a gust of wind as it just brushed her ear, but instead of feeling warm because of it, Amane only felt rage within her as she could feel every ounce of mockery in Yuki's words.

"This woman…" Amane tries to calm herself down as he takes multiple deep breaths and begins to think of other thoughts to distract herself from being outraged by Yuki's words. But Yuki was no longer near her as she was already facing all of the people who just come, so she couldn't help Amane not be enraged anymore.

She was wearing the same mask that she showed to the two Elders so that there would be less chance of a conflict and even though the same two Elders were among them, she could see that the two were quite inferior compared to the rest. She already has information about this matter, that Elder Bai and Elder Yu have a lower standing in the Human Kingdom Elder's Table which shocked her a bit because those groups of people were the strongest and maybe in fact the true Ruler of the Human Kingdom, not even the Ryu Family who are part of the Royal Family who have been the only Family to rule the Human Race since the beginning of times in the Mystic Dragon Heaven.

"So… what is the concern of the Elders this time? I thought I made it clear that I want no one to disturb me while I'm here. Or was I still not clear at that time?" Yuki said in a clear cold voice as she released her bloodlust to all of them since using it doesn't strain her body. She used more than 50% of what her real bloodlust would feel like, and when that aura came crashing down at them, they all puked a handful of blood.

"Wait! Please calm down my Lady! We didn't mean to disturb your stay here, we promise. It's just that the current King wants to meet you personally to have a private talk with you and he sent us here to relay you this message." Elder Yu explained quickly as he tried to compose himself as best that he could, but no matter how hard he tried, he just couldn't calm down, not unless that feeling of death still lingered around them. He has met with death a lot of times already in all his life. There was some time when he almost died, but luck struck him and he survived all of it. And even with all of that experience, the moment he felt Yuki's bloodlust, he almost collapsed because it was simply too terrifying and powerful at the same time.

"Do you think I'm a child? You expect me to believe your words when all that comes out of your mouth is pure bullshit? I'll ask one more time considering that I had a good impression on you two, what is your purpose here?" Yuki didn't believe anything they said that easily as she just kept putting pressure on them as sooner or later they would just reveal why they were sent here.

"Lady! Please, believe me, I'm telling the truth. The King merely ordered us to give you something and some words. As for why the other Elders of the Table are here, they came with us because they were curious to know who you are!" Elder Yu pleaded as he showed the utmost sincerity and to even prove their innocence, he brought out a token from his Spatial Ring and showed it to Yuki to show that what he said is true.

"This is the token that the King has tasked us to give you. We cannot see the contents as it contains special information for the Lady to see. Please see it for yourself." Elder Yu said weakly as every second passed, he felt his body collapsing. But it was not just him, everyone felt that they were getting weaker both mentally and physically, and the pressure on them was simply too strong for them to handle. And if the pressure doesn't disappear, they'll faint or it could lead to their deaths after being exposed to such a strong bloodlust.

Yuki said nothing as she just stopped releasing her bloodlust on them and accepted the Token from Elder Yu because of her germaphobic tendencies. She cleaned it using Magic Circles, and even though she had the Gloves that Ayame created which cleaned everything she touched, the thought of dirtying herself by touching something still lingers.

Normally, the Elders would have found her actions to be disrespectful, but after the show of power by Yuki, they were finally terrified, especially those who just come today. At first, none of them believed Elder Bai and Elder Yu's story that a mere Beast was capable of bringing out strength that is as strong or stronger than them, but after meeting Yuki, their view of her has been turned around. And even though Yuki didn't show that much, it was enough to make them feel fear down to their bones, just her aura was enough to destroy all of them.

When Yuki injected her powers inside the Token, she felt a sudden shift in it, and moments later, a holographic man was floating on top of the Token.

"If you are seeing and hearing this, then my Elders have done a great job. My name is Ryu Carro, I'm the current King of the Human Kingdom. Lady, I have heard from both Elder Yu and Elder Bai that you have helped out the Human Kingdom by giving us some vital information, and for your help, I would like to repay your kindness. Please come to the Palace if you have any time, I can assure you that you are of utmost welcome and I would be happy to accommodate you in your stay." The King's message was heard and the Elders sighed in relief since they were finally trusted by Yuki.

"I see… then I'm sorry if I have lashed out on you. You see, I'm not in the best mood right now. Please forgive me for bringing you into my anger as compensation, I'll go with you to meet the current King since it looks like there are a lot of things that he wants to talk about, especially about the Ice Beast that has attacked your Kingdom." Yuki said in an ashamed voice as she lowered her head slightly and apologized to them, she even said that she was willing to go with them.

"No, it's our fault, Lady. We came uninvited and caused you trouble. And we would like to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for agreeing with our selfish desires. Please say the time and date and we will definitely prepare for your visit." Elder Bai shook his head as he didn't feel offended at all by Yuki's actions since he also felt that something was wrong as soon as he met Yuki, she wasn't the same person that he remembered meeting a day ago. However, that was because Yuki was just acting normal and today she was just not in a real good mood after waking up late and they even added to it by coming and disturbing her.

"No need for such things, I'll go today since I'll be busy in the following days. I will not be able to meet your King at a later date. So I'll just go now, but I will only stay for a few hours, as I still need to attend to some other things on my side. Would that be alright?" Yuki asked as she threw the Token back to Elder Yu and asked if it was alright that she would just stay for a few hours.

"Of course, there is no problem with that! I'm sure he would be delighted if he knew you would be coming today." One of the high-ranking members of the Elder Table took this chance to build a relationship and answered Yuki's question.

"If that is the case, then I'll follow you." Yuki smiled behind her mask as she got what she wanted. Since the chickens were willing to go inside the Dragon's Den, then of course she would need to welcome them accordingly.
