Chapter 228 Dangerous Organizations ③
Part 2
“So what does this mean?” (Sora)
“I got the wrong person?” (Sora)
“But the mask is the real one?” (Sora)
“But I misjudged the “Byakko-sama (White Fox)”?” (Sora)
“But the god’s mask was a real one?” (Sora)
“As a priestess, am I not right?” (Sora)
“But he isn’t the Boss?” (Sora)
“Is the organization…… Wrong?” (Sora)
“Even though…… It was my very first joooob.” (Sora)
Sora *butsubutsu* mumbled and muttered as if she was trying to organize her thoughts.
Isn’t it fine either way? Everyone makes mistakes, even I make mistakes all the time.
What’s important is the future. It wasn’t like someone would die because of that mistake, so just take it easy.
Eventually, Sora stood up as if she had gathered her thoughts.
She wobbled for a moment as if she was dizzy, but recovered quickly and glared at me.
Tears were gathered at the edges of her eyes. Her transparent eyes showed me wearing my fox mask. Then Sora said.
“You are………… You are, indubitably, “Byakko-sama (White Fox)”, desu.” (Sora)
“Eh? You are wrong, tho’? I am just a Hunter who happened to have the mask.” (Cry)
Have you been listening to me so far or what?
In response to my answer, Sora clenched her fist and pointed her finger at me.
“I’m not wrong. I have decided. You are――The one whom the Fox-God recognized and has received the sacred artifact, the “Byakko-sama (White Fox-sama)” desuu!” (Sora)
“Eh!? You are wrong, tho’.” (Cry)
“In the first place, if the mask is real then the person wearing it is real, too! That’s what I learned all my life! I am a priestess1, a “Miko (Shrine Maiden)” of the venerable Fox-God. I was raised to be so. You cannot――Deceive my eyes. Neveeer!” (Sora)
“I see. Well, that is………… Amazing.” (Cry)
She keeps being stubborn.
What’s a “Miko (Shrine Maiden)” of the venerable Fox-God…… What kind of club is the (Temp) Fox Mask Fan Club? Is it fun? Maybe I should join too.
No, but if I join the Fox Mask Fan Club, then I will be the “Byakko-sama (White Fox)”? And I will have to swear absolute obedience to it? I absolutely don’t want that.
“To resume, I――Did not make a mistake.” (Sora)
“No, you are wrong, tho’.” (Cry)
“I didn’t even have any thoughts of harming the organization. If anyone says that I am wrong, then they are traitors.” (Sora)
…… Huh? Maybe she is…… Trying to hide her mistake? Maybe she is…… A bad girl?
I feel very sympathetic towards her. I am also unrivaled when it comes to having improv answers.
Sora’s eyes were *guruguru* spinning around. She was also *daradara* sweating profusely. But even so, Sora clenched her fists and raised them vigorously.
“This will be a new organization with at the top the new “Byakko-sama (White Fox)” that was recognized by the Fox-God. Its name is………… “Ten-Tails Shadow Fox (Juubi no Kage Kitsune)”. We have one more tail, so we are better than them, desuu.” (Sora)
“No, no, no, this is not good.” (Cry)
“Eh!?” (Sora)
『Ten Tails Shadow Fox (Juubi no Kage Kitsune)』. It is such an ominous name. In the first place, since the Emperor’s escort, the word “fox” does not have a good image, and there is also a possibility that it could be mistaken for a criminal organization.
Names are important. I have regretted many times that I chose 《Strange Grief (Nageki no Borei)》 as my Party name. Now, I am so used to it that I don’t even think about changing it anymore, but when I first became a Hunter, we were mistaken for a Red Party many times because of its name and were chased by them.
I am stupid, but not stupid enough to make the same mistake twice.
I declared to Sora who was blinking widely.
“The name is not good. We will be――” (Cry)
“――Yes, the 『Ten-Tails of Fried Tofu (Juubi no Aburaage)』.” (Cry)
“!? “Ten-Tails of… Fried Tofuuu (Juubi no Aburaage)”!?” (Sora)
Sora made a hysterical voice, but I am serious.
“Yes. “Ten-Tails of Fried Tofu (Juubi no Aburaage)”. Aburaage are great you know, sometimes they even save your life.” (Cry)
In fact, it had actually allowed me to avoid some conflict. Delicious foods are good. Deliciousness is what will save the world.
“No wayyy…… The name of our secret organization is 『Ten-Tails of Fried Tofu (Juubi no Aburaage)』 ? Don’t you have any naming sense?” (Sora)
Sora argued back. A secret organization? Did you say a secret organization?
I crossed my arms and said with a badass expression. Too bad I can’t show it to her as my face was hidden by the fox mask.
“Secret organization……? No, I don’t plan it to be secret. What we are going to do is to create delicious 『Inari Sushi Bento』. The goal is to expand nationwide.” (Cry)
“!? !??? A-Are you serious!?” (Sora)
What we are going to do is to make Aburaage. We are going to make delicious 『Inari Sushi Bento』 with a White Fox as a brand.
Of course, I will not do it, but the Phantoms in the 『Lost Inn』 seem to love Inari Sushi, so it is perfect.
Today I am――Brilliant.
TL notes:
Thanks for reading!
Sora went from sacred Miko to making Inari Sushi Bento for a Level 8 Hunter! (Totally would buy their Bento tho’)
Is this what you call a carrier boost!? XD
And as always, Cry, nice naming sense!
Tchao à plus!
