I was Betrayed then Reincarnated as a Kitsune

Chapter 235: A Day in the Divine Domain

[Tamamo POV]

After a long and lovely bath with Atmos, we dressed ourselves and left my home for the day.  I quickly told Luna that I would be with Atmos and she told me to have fun.  After walking through the portal Atmos made, we emerged on the streets of one of the most popular places in the divine domain.

{You know, I cant wait to see Lunas reaction to this place.}

I agree.  So far, shes only ever been to your place, right? (Atmos)

{That and the small slice of Greys place.}

Oh yeah, his office is counted as his place.  I keep forgetting that since we cant really go there. (Atmos)

{Yes, well lets get going.}

Yep yep. (Atmos)

We started waking down the street.  This particular part of the divine domain was under the jurisdiction of the gods of commerce, economics, crafting, and other similar Authorities.  It was a bustling place with building along each side of an almost endless road.  Buildings were stacked on top of one another and at several different angles, some of them even floated.  As we walked, Atmos looked at one of the floating buildings and then asked me a question.

Now that I think of it, its been a while since the gods of crafting and architecture have asked you for any gravity gems, hasnt it? (Atmos)

{When Luna showed up, I mass produced a few trillion of them so no one would bother me.}

Ahh, makes sense, but Im surprised that they havent run out yet, if I remember correctly, they use those up like water found by a thirsty human in the desert. (Atmos)

{I told them to use them sparingly.}

We stopped walking as the ground shook a little as a whole section of the street in front of us moved and a new row of buildings replaced the last set.

Oo, how about we go there?  Seems like some of the goddesses of beauty made some new products. (Atmos)

{Lets go then.  Ive been meaning to get some more oils for my tails.  While I appreciate what Luna brings me, one small bottle is hardly enough for ten tails.}

The two of us walked into one of the newly appeared shops.  A small bell above the door chimed as we walked into the shop.

Welcome, oh, Lady Tamamo, Lady Atmos, its been too long.

{Indeed it has.}

Mmm-hmmm. (Atmos)

Are you here for some oils for your tails, Lady Tamamo?

{I am.  What my wife brings me from the mortal world isnt enough for all 10 of them.}

I see.  Wait, 10?  Didnt you only have nine last time?

{Yeah, seems like the maximum is 10, it grew at some point last year.}

Well, it looks stunning.  It really completes your look as well.  I bet the other kitsune goddesses will be jealous.

Yeah, but then again, they have always been jealous of Tamamo. (Atmos)

True enough.  Every time they come here its always, this and that about how they want this many tails and has that silver one started to wrinkle up like the old bat she is.  Honestly, it gets really annoying.

{Im not old.  And also, please never say that in front of my wife, shell get mad at them if she hears that.}

This chapter upload first at NovelUsb.Com

Yeah, I bet Luna would go on a scolding spree if she knew about this. (Atmos)

Your wife is the new demigod thats been going around the mortal world, right?

{Thatd be her.}

Honestly, shed give us goddesses of beauty a run for out money.  Its just a shame she hardly cares for her appearance.  I mean, with all due respect, she hardly needs to use any makeup or anything, but just think of what shed look like if she used some.  The same goes for you, Lady Tamamo.  In fact, now that I get a closer look at you, your tails and hair are pristine.  I mean, they always were, but now it perfect or very close to it.

Thank Luna for that one too.  She got a unique skill that makes her the best of the best when it comes to taking care of stuff like Tamamos hair and tails. (Atmos)

I see.  You simply must let me meet her at some point in time.  Id love to sit and chat with her.  And, if what Lady Atmos said is true, then Id love to get some tips on hair care.

{Ill see what I can do when she ascends.}

Thank you so much.

I bought several bottles of oils for my tails and Atmos bought some skin products.  We then left the shop and started walking again.  As we went, buildings moved, the street changed several times, and some buildings shuffled back to make room for others.  We came up to another shop that we wanted to stop at.  As we entered, the smell of food hit us.  We walked up and sat down at the counter.  Shortly after, the God id Culinary Arts came out from the kitchen.

Well, well, its been a while since Ive seen your faces.

{Indeed.  Whats it been, 18 years?}

19. (Atmos)

{Right.}

Huh, its felt like longer.  Anyway, anything I can interest the two of you in?

{Something simple would be nice.}

Ill have the same. (Atmos)

Alrighty then, itll be right out.

She went back into the kitchen and several minutes later she came back carrying two plates in her hand.

Here you go.

We thanked her and started to eat.  It was as good as always, but after trying Lunas cooking, this seemed to be missing something.

{Have you gotten over your slump?}

Not yet.  For the life of me, I just cant figure out what to do.

Hmmm.  I think youll figure it out soon.  Give it like10 more years or something. (Atmos)

Oh, thats a lot sooner than I was thinking you would say.

{Well, I wish you luck.}

Thanks.

We finished up and left.  After going around for a little while longer and visiting some shops here and there, we decided to go somewhere else.  We walked through a portal and ended up in one of the scenic areas of the divine domain.  This one in particular was a vast plain with rolling hills and a nice gentle breeze.  Trees of all sizes were scattered around the place and in the distance you could hear the sounds of small brooks.

{Oh, its been a while since Ive been here.  Its as calming as usual.}

Yeah.  I thought itd be better than the hovering mountains or inverted sea. (Atmos)

{Indeed, though the sea does kind of sound nice.}

Save it for when Luna is here.  I bet shell enjoy seeing you in a swimsuit. (Atmos)

{Indeed.  Just remembering Luna in one makes me feel things.}

Of course, you could also change your place into a small beach and the both of you could do that. (Atmos)

{Some other time.}

We started walking toward one of the trees that had the perfect amount of shade underneath it.  It rested beside one of the brooks and was a perfect spot for an afternoon nap.  We sat down and looked up at the sky through the leaves.

Tamamo, how are you feeling now? (Atmos)

{Better.  Its just all the things I saw yesterday that I couldnt interfere with got to me.}

Heh.  Its been a while since that happened.  I think the first time was when you had only one tail. (Atmos)

{Ufufu.  How long ago was that?  Like, 300000 years?}

No, it was310000 years. (Atmos)

{Oh yeah, it was the first time I witnesses a Fiend season.}

Yep.  By the way, how are you going to handle Luna when she actually sees her first Fiend season?  Shes like you are, so shell want to step in most likely. (Atmos)

{Hopefully I can distract her from it for the duration for the first few times.  After she gets completely used to just what living for eternity means, then Ill ease her into it.}

So, youre going to use the same method I did with Grey. (Atmos)

{It worked for you, and Luna and Grey have similar personalities, so itll probably work for her.}

True enough. (Atmos)

{Speaking of you and Grey, how are things?}

Great.  Since he met Luna, hes been happier and more affectionate as well.  I think its because he now has a close friend that actually understands some of the things he says and does. (Atmos)

{Well, you are getting there with how many things you watch at THEIR place.}

Thats also true.  Guess being who they are has its perks. (Atmos)

{Yeah.  As for me and Luna, were also doing good.  Ive found that Luna is somehow getting even better at pampering me.}

Haha.  Thats nice.  I kind of cant wait for her to ascend either.  I mean, shes kind of a kindred spirit when it comes to messing with people, so I look forward to seeing what we can get up to when we put our heads together. (Atmos)

{Ufufu.  Just make sure she doesnt become as infamous as you do.  I want her to be able to walk around here without people hiding from her.}

Honestly, they need to get over it already.  Its not like I mess with them THAT much anymore.  (Atmos)

{You forgot the for now part.}

I did, didnt I.  Oh well, Ill give it a little while longer before turning my antic back to the divine domain.  Gotta make my quota and all that. (Atmos)

I leaned my head on Atmoss shoulder and she moved her hand to pet my head.

This reminds me of the old times when we would come here all the time. (Atmos)

{Indeed, big sis Atmos.}

Hahahaha.  How long has it been since youve called me that?  Too long. (Atmos)

{Haha.  Maybe if you actually acted like a big sister, then Id call you that more.}

Hey!  I try sometimes. (Atmos)

{That sometimes is the problem.  If you acted a little more seriously, then maybe Luna would respect you more than she does already.}

She respects me at all?  Thats a surprise. (Atmos)

{Why?  She knows you try in your own way.  I mean, the world hasnt fallen into complete chaos, so you must be doing SOMETHING right.  So what if you act the way you do.  I prefer you this way after all and so does Luna.  Shes said so many nice things about you to me you know.}

Like what? (Atmos)

{Ufufufu.  Ill keep that to myself.  Spend some time with Luna and maybe shell tell you herself.}

No fair, you cant say something like that and then not tell me at least one thing. (Atmos)

{Well, I just did.}

Hmph!  Oh, by the way, this was brought up earlier, but what should we do about the other kitsune goddesses?  I know for a fact that Luna will want to smack them around a bit the second they meet. (Atmos)

{Ill deal with them later.  They need to realize that there is no reason to get jealous over the number of tails we have.}

How many are any of them up to now anyway? (Atmos)

{I dont know about currently, but the last time any of us saw each other, one of them had I think four.}

Pffft.  Then they will definitely dislike Luna.  I mean, shes already at seven and has made significant progress on getting her tenth. (Atmos)

{Well, they can get over it.  And if they call me old again, Ill show them what an angry kitsune is actually like.}

I shall pray for them. (Atmos)

{Who would even answer that?}

Umm.  Someone? (Atmos)

{Ufufufu.  Want to head back now?  Ill prepare us some tea and we can see what kind of troubles Luna has caused Deacon.}

Sounds fun.  Lets go. (Atmos)

We stood up and left the ever-expanding plains through a shining door.

Chaos Realm:

Fenrir: Order, can I ask for some advice?

Order: Any time.

Fenrir:  What do you think Mio would like to see more?  The Diamond Mountains, or the Sanctuary of Clouds?

Order: Well, going by the names alone, she'd probably just instantly fall asleep in the Sanctuary of Clouds, so I'd go for the Diamond Mountains.  But are you sure you want to bring her there so soon?

Fenrir: Oh, I wasn't asking about this for any time soon, this was for when we finally start seeing each other all the time.  I already know where I want to show her when we have our next date.

Order: Ah.  Then like I said, go for the Diamond Mountains.

Fenrir: Got it.

Order: Just out of curiosity, how far have you planned?

Fenrir: Hmmm.  I've got all the way up to about 400 years into the future planned.  Just between you and me, I feel like once we get married, we'll be busy for a few years.

Order: Understandable.
