Chapter 857 – Leaving for the last Clan

There were more elemental-based furs, but most of them were element-less. Mostly to improve the compatibility when the Foxes sleep inside those rooms.

You can have any mixture of Foxes inside a room with element-less fur, but once you add fur with an element, those numbers would drop drastically, especially if those Foxes don't want to 'live' with each other.

So it was safer to just pick simpler fur, than struggle with elemental fur.

Moon Aiko understood this and still found it fascinating. Maybe she could come up with fur with multiple elements? That should be possible, but how would it work? And what if those Foxes rolled around, what kind of effect would it do?

There were too many questions and possible variants that Moon Aiko understood that it was easier to go the simplest route, especially when they were pressed for time.

"They are of similar quality, but we also have high quality. We will probably sort through them and make some kind of small tournament to decide who would get the better furs once the Elders and individuals of similar standing are accommodated." The enthusiastic Fox smiled gently.

"There is a lot to keep in mind." Moon Aiko nodded her head. If it was up to her, she would just throw it inside and who would get it would get it, but she also understood that interpersonal relationships might crash because of this, so she was glad to not be part of this team.

"En. But it can be quite refreshing." The enthusiastic Fox smiled even more. It seemed like she liked this job a lot, and she was really good at it.

The other Foxes also let her talk to her heart's content, so much so that Moon Aiko wondered if this person was one of the Foxes that were undergoing rehabilitation.

'Well, as long as they are doing fine.' Moon Aiko wouldn't mention anything else, other than about the continental flying ship.

It was also important to gather some things before visiting the last Clan, since they were grumbling.

Something nice for a gift might be the difference between grumbling geezer and welcoming beauty.

...

Moon Aiko went around the experimental site for a while longer before deciding to get some snacks and go over to the Nightmare Owl Clan.

"Do you have everything?" Mei asked her. Her body was still creaking, but she was able to walk normally, so much so that nobody would question if she had a wild night or not.

This was good as this allowed her to keep her ego intact, while also enjoying her time with Aiko.

"I think?" Moon Aiko tilted her head. It would not be her doing all the work, but Witch Aiko, but since this was related to Souls, there was not much she could do.

'Well, even if something goes wrong, there is Uncle taking care of things.' Moon Aiko believed her Uncle would have no issues dealing with him, and it was not like he was in the right.

Those that Ascend to the Immortal World, should have no reason to come back down.

Sure, they might get the occasional mention with their name. That can be annoying, but then you could just use the Disaster Clouds to punish them for it.

'How do I even know that information?' Moon Aiko was momentarily confused, but then she just decided to forget about it. There was no way she knew this information, and it was probably her mind playing games with her.

"That doesn't suggest confidence." Mei pursed her lips. She already told Aiko to cause chaos, but there were no issues popping up. In other words-

'Something will happen over at the Clan...' But even if she knew this, there was very little she could do with this. It was Aiko and Ancestral Beast, if something got between them, it would be squished. Well, probably except the person that enslaved them.

'Hmmmm...' Mei was still worried, but seeing everyone playing around peacefully, she suddenly seemed quite pessimistic.

'It's for the best.' At least someone should be pessimistic about this situation.

"Everything will be fine. So far nothing has happened to Aiko, so nothing will happen moving forward." Dai Lu smiled at her.

"You are way too optimistic." Mei shook her head.

Moon Aiko gathered her things and observed the gentle bickering.

'I wonder what they would do if I invited them into 'that' place.' Moon Aiko pondered for a while, but then decided to forget about it. She still had a long way before she could invite anyone in and now that she reunited with them, she would feel quite sad if she couldn't be there with them.

"Do you have everything?" A familiar Nightmare Owl asked her gently.

"Déjà vu." Moon Aiko stared at him. "You look thinner."

"And whose fault is that?" The Nightmare Owl sighed.

"Not mine." Moon Aiko hummed as her colour slowly changed.

"And definitely not mine." Witch Aiko giggled, but everyone shuddered.

With her Soul strengthened to the limit. Her natural inclination and suppression was that much stronger.

However, if that was it, nobody would have such a startling reaction. At best, they would be taken aback, but Foxes visibly moved away from Aiko.

That was because with strengthened Soul, her tails exuded completely different energy, one that was dangerous enough that even being in its presence would make you want to back off.

Of course, Mei and others were not affected as they were tied to Aiko in one way or another, but that didn't mean they couldn't 'feel' 'it'.

"Just don't cause too big of a mess." Mei pursed her lips. She didn't want to approach Aiko in this form. 'How powerful is this form?' She was confused as Aiko should still be a bit weaker.

"~♪" However, Danji was now very affectionate to Aiko. She hugged her happily, completely ignoring that pressure.

No, rather she was quite excited about that pressure. She would love it if Aiko messed her up a bit.

Witch Aiko didn't mind that hug. Those soft pillows pressing against her back were simply divine and there was no need to rob herself of that feeling.

"She can't come with us as the poisons are too powerful." The Nightmare Owl could only accommodate one person, so it would be an issue if more came.

"I know, don't worry." Witch Aiko chuckled seductively, making Foxes around feel confused.

On one hand, they really wanted to get away from this Aiko, but on another hand, they really wanted to be messed up by her.

Danji stuck out her tongue. She didn't like parting with her favourite, but it couldn't be helped.

'She will reward me later.' Danji was kind and hardworking, so she would get her time with Aiko, surely.

Witch Aiko patted Danji, who just closed her eyes and laid her ears flat. It was obvious that if they were alone then Danji would be even more affectionate and submissive, but nobody thought about that.

Danji was always stern looking with great ideas, but slave-like drive. Seeing her like this, they just thought that Danji really liked Aiko. They wouldn't believe anyone if they told them that Danji was like a pet in the bed.

"Okay, I think I have everything." Witch Aiko chuckled. Her voice caressing everyone's ears.

Some blushed while others were already fantasising. This Dark Aiko was simply out of this world when it came to seduction.

"That doesn't inspire confidence." The Nightmare Owl pursed his lips. He didn't want to go back and forth if it was not necessary.

"Déjà vu." Witch Aiko giggled. "Let's just go. At worst, we will be running around." She licked her lips, making the Nightmare Owl flinch.

They slowly left the premises, making the confused Foxes chatter loudly.

"D-did you see that?""I think I need new underwear...""Gosh... I want her to mess me up...""Do you think Jade Fox would approve?""If you have a death wish.""Come on, sharing is caring..."

They chattered away while Mei and the group were confused.

"Was Aiko always like this?" Wanshu tilted her head, but Yuxi was just wiping her saliva, holding Wanshu's sleeve.

"Yes, yes..." Wanshu rolled her eyes. Yuxi was completely taken in by this Dark Aiko...

'I don't like it.' This wouldn't be the first time this happened, but Wanshu was apprehensive because Aiko felt like a Demonic Fox.

Sharing Yuxi with the 'White' Aiko was fine, she didn't feel demonic at all, but this Dark Aiko was definitely a Demonic Fox.

'This is my territory...' Wanshu had mixed emotions. She still liked Aiko and was glad she was taken in, but at the same time she didn't want to share her cupcake with other Demonic Foxes.

Wanshu discreetly glanced at Danji. She was wondering how she was coping with this, maybe asking her would be better?

But the answer was... something she didn't expect.

"It's impossible to have her to myself. Or rather my body would break down." Danji knew this before everyone else, because she was a Demonic Fox. She could estimate her stamina and if she could manage.

Sure, she jumped the cannon first, but that was because she didn't want to be left behind and also so that Aiko understands her determination.

"..." Wanshu was even more confused, but she didn't want to engage with Dark Aiko if possible...

...

"Do you really have everything?" The Nightmare Owl asked again.

"Gosh, can you stop?" Witch Aiko sighed. This was like the 20th time. "One day slow down won't matter much."

"... My sister believes the owner will be coming over." The Nightmare Owl shared his worry.

"... What?" Witch Aiko looked at him. "Is that even possible?"

"They can Descend, but it will take a toll on them. But I heard some things happened." The Nightmare Owl was concerned about this whole situation.

'I happened.' Witch Aiko pursed her lips.

Well, Moon Aiko just took a few things, like they always do... maybe burned a few things...

'Well, shit happens.' Witch Aiko didn't think much of it. If they came, they came. If they didn't come, she would come. Or something like that?

"There is nothing to worry about. I will be quick." Witch Aiko smiled. They were still inside a forest, but the lights were slowly dimming. Or rather the forest was growing thicker and thicker.

The moisture was subtly increasing, but what was noticeable were the rising fumes.

"Those are toxic, so don't breathe too much-" The Nightmare Owl was trying to warn her, but Aiko was taking the biggest huffs down her lungs.

"Lovely place~!" Witch Aiko hummed happily. She quite liked this place as it improved her physique, and maybe it could also improve other parts of her body.

"... You are really crazy." The Nightmare Owl was speechless.

"Don't say it 3 times or I might smooch you." Witch Aiko giggled as she was breathing in those toxic fumes.

"..." The Nightmare Owl was completely silent.

"Hey, that was a joke. I have no interest in guys." Witch Aiko rolled her eyes. She didn't expect him to chicken away...
