The Fox Goddess

"Thank you for all of your help… I'm really glad to be a part of this Family, especially to you, Mother. You were the one who helped me in the darkest moments of my life when Mommy Alfina died, I didn't understand anything at first but as I grew up I gradually begin to know what Death means, and once I know that, I fell into the deep darkness. Adding the horrible Life that I got when I was sent to the Lizard Tribe, my mind becomes darker and darker, I feel depressed and wanted to end myself. But all of that changed when I met one person… and that person was you, Mother. I am very grateful for that, and I hope you can continue supporting me in the future." Yumie said as a single tear drops out of her right eye, she then hugs Yuki's body tightly but it was still gentle.

"You don't need to worry about such a thing as I said… I will always be by your side when you need it." Yuki raised both of her little arms as she returns the hug to Yumie. After a few seconds, she lets go but leaned in closer to kiss Yumie's forehead shocking the little girl. But all of that soon vanished as it turned into another burst of emotion, she felt even more loved by everyone, and she even felt like she wasn't deserving of such love. What has she done in her life to receive such affection and love? She met Yuki by chance, and their first meeting was not very pleasant, but all of that changed, she was loved by her and even treat as her child. Even if Yuki had another child such as Katsumi, she was still given the same treatment as before, she was spoiled and loved, and if it was ever a dream, she wouldn't want to wake up ever again. But all of that changed when Aika arrived in their life, Yumie is not going to lie to herself, but she got envious when her Mother was spending more time with Aika and not her, and Katsumi. Even though she keeps telling herself that Aika is her Mother's blood-related child, so her position in their family is much higher than hers, she soon realizes that her new little Sister was very fragile because she was much younger than them.

But that is not everything that made her change her mind about Aika, it was her kindness, gentleness, and cuteness that change her view of Aika. She was a young and naive child, but she was kind to everyone that she meet, it doesn't matter who they are, even if they were a criminal, she would still treat them kindly like she does with everyone. Her entire view of Aika changed when she tried to do something to her, though she knew that it was wrong to cause something to happen to Aika that could potentially hurt her, she did this out of jealousy towards her little Sister. She tried to purposely make Aika trip her feet to fall to the ground which she successfully did, but because she was so nervous at that time she was caught by her Mother in the act, though it was already too late as Aika has already fallen scraping her knees as an outcome. She was preparing to be scolded, but she only got a pat on the head from Yuki and when her Mother did that, she felt teary as extreme guilt built up inside of her, but what she doesn't know was that Yuki is also feeling bad because it was her fault for making Yumie feel jealous pus and from that point, she fixed herself in doing things.

And just as she was expecting to be hated because of what she did to her little sister, she didn't get any hate at all. She was even forgiven by Aika, she hugged her calmly as she then let Yumie do what she wants. Even though she doesn't understand why her big sister did something to hurt her, she didn't hate her at all, she forgave her because she knows that everyone could make mistakes just like what her Mommy told her, and she felt that what happened in this incident is a mistake that her big sister did, she knows that Yumie purposely tripped her but she let go all of it. This action of Aika of being kind towards the person who had bad intentions towards her made a wave of guilt flood deep inside Yumie's heart, but it was healed by Aika's love and kindness. From this moment on, she would try her best to be the best elder sister possible for her two sisters.

"I'm all fine now… Thank you for all of your help, Mother, Katsumi, and Aika. If not for all of you, I would still pain from remembering Mommy Alfina, but all of that changes because of you. If Mother and also my two cute little sisters want to know what was my life when I was with my Mommy Alfina, I can tell you guys, you don't need to worry about me, I'm fine about telling you." Yumie smiled as she then removes herself from Yuki's embrace and sat down on the bed as she waited for the three of them to answer. She was fine now telling them everything about her past, if this was before, she wouldn't speak anything because just remembering even a second of those memory causes a terrifying nightmare for her.

"I won't force you if you are still scared to tell anything about it, but if you think that you can say anything about your past. I'm glad to listen to your story, because of all the investigations that I did for you, I'm sorry if I never said anything about investigating you, Yumie. I found that you are the daughter and the future Queen of all Hydra Race. Though the most interesting I found about you is that you previously lived in the Niflheim, the Heaven where the true Rulers are the ones with Power, amidst all of the destruction, it is the most beautiful Heaven." Yuki said with a straight face, but her words caused a ruckus inside the room. Yumie was shocked that her Mother has already got a bit of information about her, while Katsumi and Aika had the same reaction, they were excited to know that their eldest sister was the future Queen of an entire Race.

"You're going to be the Queen!?" The two of them were exhilarated as both of them jumped to Yumie's side and hugged both of her arms. Yumie's little size was swallowed by the two, especially Katsumi who was abnormally tall for her size, her breast was touching together with Yumie's arm causing a glare from Yuki.

"Wow… Mother, your team is amazing, I can't believe that you have gotten so much information about me." Yumie said with a slight chuckle as she took out an earring that she had always been wearing since she got her Human form. It was an earring that shows that she is a part of the Royal Family, but that is not all that it shows, it shows who has the highest authority in the Hydra Race. But before Yuki could react to her eldest daughter's words, Yumie has already spoken and explained everything that everyone should know about her.

"My full name is, Cronsi Yumie, the previous princess of the Hydra Race. My Father is the King of the Hydra Race, his name is Cronsi Samael, and my Mother Cronsi Alfina is the Queen. My family has the highest authority in the Hydra Race, but it doesn't work like any normal Royal Palace where only the Royal Family could be the Queen/King, in the Hydra Race everyone could become the Ruler as long as it is in a fair fight, to be the new Ruler you need to Kill the current one. And that is what exactly happened, my family was killed by the challenger, they cheated, but we cannot do anything because they were too strong, but as long as I have this earring. I'm the only one who is allowed to Rule the Hydra Race." Yumie explained to all of them which caused a great shock to her two sisters, but Yuki only nodded in response because of the information that she got from the people that she hire.

"But my life before all of that was very happy and fun, I grew up with everything that I want. But both of my parents have taught me well so that I wouldn't be astray and be a spoiled kid in the future who would only rely on my parents. Even if I can have everything I want, I followed Momm Alfina's words and didn't ask for everything I want." Yumie smiled a bit sadly as a flood of memories begins to surge through her mind causing a creep of sadness in her heart.

"Mommy Alfina was trying her best at that time when we were being raided so that I wouldn't be exposed to all of the killings that were happening around us. But it didn't last because in the end I was also affected, and ultimately I watched my Father and Mother die right in front of me while trying to protect me from the intruders. The only reason that I came here is that Mommy Alfina used all of her remaining strength to transport me here." Yumie still couldn't help herself shedding a tear when remembering that specific part of her life.
