The Fox Goddess

"Nothing, I just wanted to talk to you. If you can, please bring this down?" Lian coughed awkwardly, as she looked at the sharp and thin Ice Threads.

"Why did you bring someone with you?" Yuki refused and began to put the Ice Threads closer to them.

"Don't worry! She is my close friend, she will definitely not tell anyone about Aika!" Lian shielded Akane from Yuki after seeing her cold eyes staring at Akane. She became extremely nervous when she found Yuki was releasing her bloodlust at them.

"Are you sure?" Yuki asked as she pointed at Akane who had a pale face, and was sweating a lot. But she didn't dare to move, because she is afraid that she might really die if she did.

"Yes, I can assure you with my life." Lian promised.

"If you are ever wrong, and words leak out about Aika. I will make a move against your family, remember that." Yuki then disables her bloodlust and looks back at Aika who has just woken up.

"Did you have a good sleep?"

"Yes, but why are you here Big sis Lian?"

"Don't worry about me, oh yes. This is Akane. She is my childhood friend." Lian introduced Akane who was on her knees and was breathing hard, almost all of her tiredness disappeared when she felt Yuki's stare at her.

"Hello!" Aika greeted Akane.

Then the three of them began to talk by themselves, the two didn't talk to Yuki for now as they can feel that she is still quite angry for suddenly barging in. And 10 minutes before they started their class again, Lian finally found her courage to speak to Yuki.

"Yuki, can I talk to you about the upcoming Academy Wars?"

"Why are you bringing this up? It's still not a year, at most we still have 10-11 Months left." Yuki asked.

"Well, it's because the Academy Wars has been postponed. It's happening soon now, two weeks from now." Lian finally let out her concern.

"So, what's your point? We made a deal about that already, as long as you can get me inside the Sect Wars, I'll be happy to help you at the Academy Wars." Yuki said with a huff.

"Actually the Sect Wars is cancelled. But please still help us fight! I will do anything you ask me for!" Lian grabbed Yuki's arms and held it suddenly.

"Why do you need to touch me?" Yuki forced her arms out of Lian's grasp, and glared at her.

"Then what can you do to me?" Yuki smirked and waited for Lian to answer.

Meanwhile Akane who was listening to the both of them talk was rather surprised to see that her childhood friend was begging someone to do something for them. She was a Princess, one just cannot refuse them as they are the Royal Family, but of course Yuki was different. She was the sole reason that they only won the war against Royal Destruction, so the Royal Family will have to bend if they want Yuki to do something for them.

"Mommy." Suddenly Yuki felt Aika tugging at her sleeve with a scared expression on her face.

"What's wrong?" Yuki placed her on her lap to calm her down, then when Yuki saw that Aika was pointing at something she looked at it and saw King Dagart.

"This guy… What the hell do you want?" Yuki's cold voice rang in the Garden, Lian and Akane also turned their heads and saw King Dagart walking with a few people behind him.

"Father!" Lian went forward to King and hugged him, meanwhile Akane kneeled in one knee for a humble greeting.

"I greet his Majesty!'

"Come on now, is that how you speak to your Uncle?" King Dagart teased Akane.

"U- Uncle." Akane corrected her words with a reddened face.

"Aika, does this guy scare you? Do you want me to send him away?" Yuki ignored them and asked Aika a question that shocked all the people that King Dagart brought. And because they don't know Yuki's contribution and how strong she is they immediately released their Aura at Yuki, which also affected Aika.

"Don't do anything. It's fine." Before the Royal Guards behind can react to Yuki, King Dagart raised his hand to stop them.

"But, King! She is being disrespectful to you." The woman who seems the leader of the Royal Guards spoke up in an agitated voice.

"Shut up, you don't know who she is. This is my order as you're King! Don't be disrespectful to this Lady when you see her, instead show her hospitality!" The King ordered all of them which they had no choice but to obey since it's the King's orders.

"Hello Yuki, it's nice to see you again." King Dagart raised his arms for a handshake, but when he saw that Yuki was looking at him with cold eyes, he shuddered. He then let go of the idea for a handshake and just greeted her.

"How is your stay going ? Did you learn a lot?" King Dagart tried to be polite with her.

​ "Apologise to her first, she is scared of you." Yuki pointed to Aika who was hugging her legs and was shivering while hiding herself by using Yuki's body.

"That-"

"Hey, aren't you going too far!? He is the King, why does our King have to apologise?" The woman began to argue with Yuki, which made Lian and King Dagart feel anxious.

"Even your beloved and respectful King don't dare to talk to me like that. And you expect me to listen to a dog barking at me? You must have been spoiled too much by your owner." Yuki glared at King Dagart.

"What did I just say Duchess Ava!? Even if you are a Duchess and are the leader of the Royal Guards, I will punish you!" King Dagart warned her again.

"I'm sorry, please forgive my rudeness." Duchess Ava bowed at Yuki as a sign of apology.

"Don't be scared Aika, this Man is all talk but he cannot fight." Yuki tried to console Aika, she then glared at King Dagart.

"APOLOGISE, I still remember what you did to her. Don't expect me to forget that easily." Yuki talked in a much colder voice.

"Wait, Okay! Little Aika, can you talk with me for a second?" King Dagart softened his voice when he tried to talk to Aika.

Aika, who heard King Dagart's softened voice, slowly calmed down. Aika then peeked her head out of Yuki's legs and looked at him. But her eyes still contained a little bit of fear that everyone saw.

"I'm sorry Aika if I was rude and hurt you when I talked to you a week ago. I hope you can forgive this old man." King Dagart said.

"Old Man? But you still look young, King?." Aika called King Dagart by his name that made Yuki raise her eyebrows.

"Sweetie, you don't have to call this guy King. You can call him Uncle Mirel." Yuki patted her head.

"Really? But Mommy I heard that he is the King, and isn't the King supposed to be the highest position?" Aika looked at Yuki with questions.

"Don't worry about that. She can call you Uncle Mirel, RIGHT?" Yuki leaked out a little amount of her bloodlust.

"Yes of course! I don't mind it, you can call me anything you want Aika." King Dagart quickly said to please Yuki.

"See, you can call her whatever you want."

"Then can I call you Big brother?" Aika looked at him with hoping eyes, but before he could react Yuki interjected.

"Don't be fooled by his looks, Aika. This person is already old, you can even call him grandpa if you want." Yuki chuckled, but her words struck King Dagarts heart.

'Grandpa?'

"Grandpa? But he looks so young." Aika finally came out from Yuki's legs.

"Even if someone looks young, that might be fake. A person will get more beautiful as she gets stronger, this will also preserve and make someone age longer. Do you understand me?" Yuki smiled at her, then seeing Aika nod happily she patted her head.

"You are so smart!"

"Hehehe, But then does that mean Mommy is also old? Then doesn't that mean that you're older than Uncle Mirel or Big sis Aria since you're much more beautiful?" Aika looked very confused and looked adorable, but her words hurt Yuki.

"Me old? No, I'm only 26 years old." Yuki explains quickly. She used her real age combined with the time that she spent here which is more than half a year now.

"Really?"

"Of course I would never lie to you." Yuki said.

"Yeah, you understand now? There are people that are naturally born beautiful even if they are young. Like me, and you. You are beautiful and cute, but you are still 8yrs old." Yuki showed her an example.

"I'm beautiful and cute?" Aika looked at Yuki with a shocked expression.

"Of course, but you don't have to worry about this. I promise you that you will grow very beautiful like me, as you have my blood in you. And you also have your mothers genes with you." Yuki said, but her words caused an uproar to everyone's mind.

"Yuki's spouse is a WOMAN!?" Those words rang into Lian's and Akane's mind.

"Yeah, Fairy Mother is very beautiful. But you said that she is already in a happy place called heaven." Suddenly Aika's mood went down when her mother was mentioned.

Yuki's eyes darken when that happened, and also the mood around them. Suddenly it became sullen, and sad.

"Aika you can call me Uncle Mirel!" King Dagart said to lift the mood.

"Okay!" Suddenly Aika's mood came back, she also became close with King Dagart.
