After Gender Swapping, I Became the Daughter of a Yandere Mother with Animal Ears—With the Help of My Yandere Mom and Powerful Sister, I'll Live as a Fox Girl - Chapter 13: I Want to Moffle
“A request?”
“Yes… I need your help. Many of my kin are still fighting and suffering in our village… I want to save them.”
Ikoma looked up at me with earnest eyes, full of a desperate plea. I wanted to help her if I could, but I needed more power. The one who could save her was…
“Onee-chan, are you here?”
As I pondered, the sliding door unexpectedly opened, and Kohaku appeared.
“Kohaku…”
“Please help me!”
Before I could explain, Ikoma interjected loudly and knelt before Kohaku, clasping her hands together in supplication.
“Please, lend me your strength! My village will be destroyed if nothing is done…”
Kohaku said nothing, just silently looking down at her. I couldn’t read her expression.
“Onee-chan, what’s going on with her?”
“Magatsuhi attacked our village… She’s asking for help…”
“Hmm.”
After hearing my explanation, Kohaku turned back to Ikoma and then…
“I refuse.”
“…!?”
Ikoma was visibly shocked by Kohaku’s blunt response, her face reflecting deep despair.
“But why…?”
“Because there’s no benefit for me. I have my hands full protecting Onee-chan. Besides, it’s foolish to risk danger to help some youkai.”
“Youkai?”
Caught in the tense atmosphere, I couldn’t help but blurt out.
“Yes, Onee-chan didn’t know yet, did you? In this world, there are mainly humans, Magatsuhi, youkai, and others who don’t fit into these categories. And this dog here is a youkai.”
“Are we different?”
“Completely. We were born from human prayers, opposite of Magatsuhi. We’re like gods.”
“Eh, but you said you weren’t a god before…”
“Right. I don’t consider myself a god. But to explain it simply, ‘god’ is the easiest term to use.”
Kohaku spoke nonchalantly.
I see… If they were born from human faith, maybe they don’t owe anything to the youkai. But is that really okay…?
“Uhh…”
The color drained from Ikoma’s face, leaving her looking almost like a corpse. The situation that much cornered her.
“Please… I beg you… I’ll do anything… You can even sell my body if you want… So please…”
She finally broke down in tears, prostrating herself on the ground. Her figure was tragically pitiful.
“Please…”
She rubbed her forehead against the floor, yet Kohaku’s answer remained unchanged.
“I don’t want to. I’m not interested in your body.”
“But please…”
“Stop being so persistent…”
Kohaku, seemingly irritated, clicked her tongue and raised her right foot, apparently intending to kick her…
“Ah~~~~~!!! I want to fluff her so much!!!”
“Eh?”
Suddenly shouting out loud, I stopped Kohaku in her tracks. She froze, her eyes wide with shock.
“Uh…”
I was confused myself. I didn’t understand why I had acted like that. But I felt that if I didn’t do something right, I would regret it.
“Um… that… The dog girl’s tail, hands, ears… I want to fluff them all!!”
“…Huh?”
Kohaku looked utterly baffled at my words. It was a natural reaction. I didn’t even understand what I was saying…
