I've Turned Into A Fox Girl?

With Elysia calmed down, we returned to the dining area, where the tension was still quite high. Silver didn't look too phased, but Elanor, Himeko and Luna were still unsure how they should feel.

"I'm just gonna put it out there, but my family gave the order for the execution of Elysia's family. It just so happened that Elysia wanted to get revenge for her parents. It is a morbid situation, but that's just what was meant to be." Having provided the missing context, I could see Elanor and Luna relaxing, not Himeko though.

"Couldn't there be a better way? That order was for the older generation of Elysia's family, so who is to say the young ones still hold the same values?" It was hard to disagree with Himeko as those were my first thoughts as well.

"I can say for sure they still held the values from back then. My grandfather had brainwashed them all in preparation for taking over the Fox Realm. From the journal I read it seems that was his next step once he found me. In reality, they were feral beasts waiting for orders to go wild."

"However, the Pope forced him to change his plans. Now they were meant to be a blood sacrifice for his summoning, but instead Alice got a meal of a lifetime." Elysia gave her own explanation, which was plausible, but it made me question why she thought our opinion of her would change.

I wondered why she hadn't told us this from the beginning. If there was no turning back from what her grandfather did, then it was probably best to put them out of their misery. Especially once the Pope got involved. If he got his hands on all those people he would have more than enough sacrifices.

"Hmm, I see. Looks like you put some thought into it." Himeko let out a sigh no longer pressing on about the issue. With all the tension dissipated, we dived back into our now slightly colder food before finishing up and heading to our rooms.

Of course, my room was a master bedroom with a massive bed large enough for Elysia Clara and me combined. The moment we entered I instantly pushed Elysia up against the wall so she wouldn't escape.

"Already?" Clara didn't quite understand what I was trying to do but that's beside the point.

"Tell me the truth, Elysia. What is really going on inside your head?" Her behaviour just didn't quite add up and I wanted to figure out why. She doesn't usually get hung up on emotions, but it has been a long time since we have seen each other.

'Maybe I'm overreacting.' I probably should cut Elysia some slack and comfort her, especially since this will be our first night together in just under a year.

"Argh! I can't hide anything from you." However, it seems like my suspicions were correct. Elysia held her face while breathing heavily, trying to decide what she should say.

"So? What's up?" I eagerly awaited her answers and hoped it wasn't anything bad.

"W-well to tell you the truth, I was really worried that you didn't love me anymore. I didn't really care about the whole genocide thing… it's just my thoughts went wild seeing your face like that." I couldn't believe this girl, I thought it was something much worse, but no, she was just lovesick.

"You fucking idiot." I shook my head while leaning in for a kiss to dispel any worries she may have had. It hadn't sunk in just how long it had been since last I'd seen her and I was starting to crave all the affection I missed out on.

"Fufu~ I think it's time we make up for some lost time." Clara had the right idea, just not at the right time.

"Woah, woah, slow down. As much as I want to get down and dirty, I think we will need to reserve a couple of days for that and now isn't the time." I didn't want to tease too much, but we needed to make sure we were at our best.

"Aww, come on, you just turned me on!!!" Elysia squirmed, her body already preparing to go down that road.

"Sorry, sorry. I almost got carried away, but it will be worth it when we have some time, alright? How about instead we talk about some future plans? I feel like we are getting close to our battle with the pope. Once that is over, we should finally have some free time." I knew I couldn't just say no so I opted for a talk we were yet to have.

I know Elysia wanted to officially marry, but there were also some other things we could do.

"Finnne~." Elysia pouted, she didn't complain much as she was clearly still excited being able to spend time together. Clara also looked disappointed, but her interest also peaked.

"This feels kind of wrong. We just killed Freja and Kiruya, but here we are having some kind of girls' night." Clara pointed out the contrast between what we were doing a couple of hours ago to our current relaxed situation and it was kind of weird.

"You can't say that now! You were halfway to undressing yourself when I pinned Elyisa to the wall!" Clara was clearly about to dive right in without even thinking.

"Okay, you got me." Clara raised her hands, as she couldn't argue with that.

"It sucks to think about, but in the grand scheme of things, Freja wasn't all that important to us. It would have been nice to have Kiruya around, but that's just how things have turned out." I felt sad about their deaths, but there was no reason to linger on those feelings more than needed.

"Who cares? I want this future talk." Elysia, being the heartless one as usual, jumped onto the bed with her tail wagging. She had her priorities and feeling sad was not one of them.

Me and Clara got onto the bed as well, forming a triangle.

"Yes, yes, the first thing I wanted to ask was if we wanted to have an actual kid. Is it even possible for us since we don't quite have the required anatomy?" This question has been in the back of my mind ever since me and Elysia started dating.

I always assumed it was a no, but I wondered if there was some kind of magic that allowed such a possibility.

"Woah, I was not expecting that." Clara was taken aback and it took her a few moments to register what I was saying.

"Hmm, I think there might be a way. I heard something about a mana infusion method that allows you to get someone pregnant, but it's very hard to do. If it was easy, anyone could just slap you and bam, you got a baby." I couldn't help but chuckle as I imagined slapping Elysia and Clara.

"We could always try it, but then I guess the next question is who-"

"I'll do it." Elysia didn't hesitate to offer herself up to go through such a process.

"Are you sure? It sounds like you didn't want to continue your bloodline." With the mass genocide we were just told of it did sound kind of counterintuitive.

"It doesn't matter, I killed them to put to rest the mistakes of our old bloodline. Nothing wrong about starting a new one with Shaman." Elysia latched onto my arm, hugging it tightly.

"If that's the case, maybe Clara and I can mix our mana so that way it's all our genes." I had no idea how that would work, so we need to ensure this doesn't end up deforming the baby In any way.

"That might work, but that would be quite the mix. A fox, dragon and demon girl sounds like a chimaera." Clara listing out all our traits made it sound like this was some kind of sick experiment.

"Why don't we just have 2 then? Clara, you will have to take the other one." It made the most sense, but only if Clara actually wanted to carry a baby.

"I-I… I don't know if I could… hmmmm, If that's what it takes, then fine." Clara fought with herself before blushing and giving in to Elysia's idea.

"We're getting ahead of ourselves, we have no idea if it's even possible." I needed to slow down the conversation. It's not like we were going to test it tonight, that would be way ahead of schedule.

"Damn, I was already thinking of names." Elysia was brought back to reality after getting a tad too excited.

"It's just something to think about. Plus, after everything is over, I might have to take up the throne depending on the condition of my parents." There were a lot of factors that needed to be considered, since defeating the Pope doesn't mean we can settle right away.

"Even then, aren't there those gods who have been watching us? I feel like they won't make our lives easy."

"You're right, Clara. The best outcome is that they just leave us alone, but if not, we may have some more problems on our hands. I don't know if it will involve you two, but they used me for something, that's for sure." There were so many unknowns about the gods that I didn't want to promise anything.

If I had a choice of dealing with them or living out my life, I would choose far and away from them. Whatever their problems are, I'm not getting involved as long as it doesn't endanger those around me.

"We don't need to think about that yet, let's just save your parents first." Elysia shrugged it off like it wasn't a big deal, making me kind of envious of her attitude. I wish I could just ignore it as well, but whenever I'm reminded it always makes me uneasy.
