I've Turned Into A Fox Girl?

Once back on the throne, I did the same for my father as I did my mother. Thankfully, nothing went wrong and the gem performed as expected.

Just like my mother, my father looked around, confused as to why everyone else seemed frozen until his eyes landed on me.

I felt my breath hitch for a moment as I tried my best not to cry, but I didn't know if I could hold it in much longer. My heart beat rapidly as I awaited what my father would say. Deep inside, a part of me wondered if he would even recognise the new me.

"S-Shaman?" He reached out with his hand but was hesitant, as if unsure if I was even real.

"Yes, it's me Dad." I gestured towards my mother and Elysia who nodded in confirmation. It seemed he got somewhat of an understanding of the situation, but before I could get another word out he rushed towards me.

He wrapped his arms around me and hugged me tightly. I was taken aback, as I didn't expect that kind of reaction from him. However, the next few words that he spoke pushed me over the edge.

"You've grown so much, I don't know what has happened exactly, but know I am proud of you for even making it back here." My father probably didn't even know the half of it, much less how long it had been, yet he hasn't hesitated to shower me with his affection, hitting me right in the heart.

"I-I…" I couldn't keep the strong front any longer, tears sliding down my cheeks. My mother came up from behind, hugging me and Dad while caressing my head.

"You've had a long journey, dear. It sounds far from over, but for now, you can forget about it and relax." My mother whispered into my ear and I just melted into their embrace. I began to sob uncontrollably as I finally let out all my tension and worries, which had accumulated over so much time of being unsure about my family's well being. The part that had merged with my soul was flaring as well, bursting with emotion as well as relief.

Even Elysia, who would be jealous under any circumstance, was teary-eyed watching everything, which was a surprise.

"I-I thought you guys might have d-died *sob* I wouldn't have known what to do if y-you were gone." I couldn't deny that this thought had always been there at the back of my mind, but I refused to acknowledge it up till now. I was afraid that if I thought about it too much, I wouldn't be able to bring myself to come here.

"Well, you saved us and we are both alive and well."

"We can't thank you enough, Shaman. Who knows how much longer we could have survived in the stasis, but that doesn't matter now."

My parents held me tight, constantly reassuring me while I sobbed my heart out. Experience tales at m v|l e'-NovelBin.net

After exhausting all my tears, I was able to calm down and get to explaining the current situation to my father. We sat on the floor of the throne room as I couldn't be bothered moving after crying so much.

I elaborated further on what was going on outside and the current status of the world. Surprisingly, they weren't too shocked, though they only got frozen 3 to 4 years ago, so they might have had some inkling of what the pope was planning.

"I see, so Klaus really is going through with it. He must have snapped around the time we got frozen." My father spoke out loud, making me curious what his relationship was with him.

"Indeed, ever since he lost his partner, he took an interest in black magic." My mother gave a little more context on why the pope has gone down such an insane path. I couldn't help but laugh internally at how simple the reason was.

"Did you two know him personally?" I wanted to know, as my father might have been friends with the pope.

"Your father did since he… how do we put this?" My mother seemed to be unsure if she should disclose some information, which only raised my curiosity.

"There isn't a reason to hide it, we can tell her." I was left more confused, as I didn't know what it could be that they were hiding. My father then turned to me and looked directly into my eyes, shifting his tone.

"It may be hard to believe, but Freja, Klaus and I were all teleported here from another world together. We were all granted separate systems that gave us an edge over everyone else." Explaining the secret, I was honestly shocked by the news that my father was also from another world.

"It may be hard to grasp, but I can vouch he is telling the truth." Mother chimed in. Not that she needed to, as I was stunned for completely different reasons than what they thought.

"T-this is probably a good time to mention that I also came from said world as well." I wasn't sure what their reaction would be. Would they even still think of me as their daughter?

"WHAT!?" Both of them shouted in confusion.

"Don't freak out! I am still your daughter, my name was the same in the previous world and I more or less merged souls with the Shaman in this body." I quickly gave a brief description of what happened, hoping I didn't just screw up.

"We know you are still our daughter, but we didn't think you would get a reincarnated soul." It seems like I misinterpreted their reaction, as my father seemed to know why, or at least what had happened to me.

"Reincarnated soul?" I thought I knew everything, but it sounds like I'm missing a couple of pieces.

"Looks like you won the bet Makoto." My mother sighed and I was left more confused.

"Okay, I'll explain everything, but let's go somewhere more comfortable than the floor. I also want to know who your lady friend is." Both my parents got up from the ground as Elysia, who was behind me, offered her hand.

I took it, but Elysia refused to let go even after helping me up, probably to subtly show my father what our relationship was. I looked back and saw him raising an eyebrow, with my mother quickly whispering into his ear.

He widened his eyes for a moment before nodding his head in some kind of approval.

Having returned to the dining room, my mother had filled my father on our current predicament. However, he didn't have any ideas on how to resolve it as of yet, so right now we just had to wait for Clara and the others to arrive.

I also introduced Elysia and gave her backstory. Surprisingly, my father gave a much more welcoming reaction.

"I didn't expect you to date a Dahlia, but seeing as those outdated fools are dead, I don't see a problem with it. If anything you should be rewarded since they had a bounty on them, but that can come later." It was reassuring to hear, but I had yet to tell them I was dating Clara, the demon lands queen's sister.

"Not to mention you have great taste in wom-." Before he could finish the sentence, he got smacked in the back of his head and slammed into the table by my mother.

"I'm right here you pervert of a husband." My mother pouted which was kind of cute, but also terrifying as that smack had a lot of strength behind it.

"Yeah don't look at me like that, I'm only for Shaman's eyes!" Elysia quickly hugged me from behind, trying to use me as cover from my father's gaze.

"Owww, good to see nothing has changed despite being frozen for years." Despite rubbing the back of his head, he seemed in good spirits rather than upset.

"Anyway, I should also tell you that there is one more." I wasn't sure how to come clean about it. I'm royalty in this world, so my marital status will not remain a secret for long. Thus, having more than one wife seemed unlikely to be accepted.

"One more what?" I caught the curiosity of both of my parents, who both stared at me, awaiting an explanation and only adding to the pressure.

"I may be in a three-way relationship with Clara, the demon queen's sister." I couldn't help but feel afraid of their reaction despite them being accepting of everything so far.

"Wait, wait, Clara, the demon girl Himeko took in?" My mother instantly recognised the name.

"Interesting, my daughter is building a harem." My father pushed up his glasses, looking proud that I have 2 girlfriends.

"Yes, it's the Clara you are thinking of." I ignored what my father said, as I instantly realised he was a degenerate and wanted to preserve what was left of his old image in my mind.

"Now that's a twist I didn't expect to hear today." My mother rubbed her forehead, processing everything.

"If anything, that's great news, I always wondered what a kitsune mixed with demon genes would look like." My father was already thinking of the future. Hearing that I couldn't help but blush as we had only recently talked about having kids.

"Don't you dare think about getting a concubine, otherwise I'll kick you out." My mother glared at my father, knowing exactly what he was actually thinking.

"I wasn't thinking that! Anyway, I think that's great, Shaman. I know you are probably wondering if it's okay to have such a relationship, but luckily here it doesn't matter. Cross-race is a bit of a grey area, but you have nothing to worry about." Just like that, my father dispelled all of my worries. Perhaps it was a benefit that he was also from another world, as I'm sure similar thoughts have crossed his mind before.

"I'm glad to hear that. Anyways, now it's your turn. What did you mean by a 'reincarnated soul'?" I could guess what it meant of course, but I felt like there was more to it than just reincarnation.
