Chapter 413: Snow Fox Girl
"Is it fun to bully me?" Nell pursed her lips as she adjusted her body towel.
"Bully? That's the wrong word. I prefer to call it teasing you to pass the time. Now that I'm bored, I need to recharge my Elysianium." Elena went away from Nell and headed toward Elysia. She wanted to hear a cute moan once again while Elysia was relaxed and careless.
"Kyah!"
"Iyaa!? Huh?"
Elena did manage to make Elysia moaned by being surprised at what her finger did. However, another girl's voice sounded not far from them.
With a bit of surprise, Elena and Elysia turned to the source of the voice. About ten meters from their position, there was a girl with snow-white hair and golden eyes soaking in the hot spring as well.
The thing that attracted the most attention was that the white-haired girl had a pair of cat ears on top of her head, nekomimi.
"Huh? I'm sure we didn't see anyone but us here. Did she just arrive or was she there from the start? Were we too careless to not notice her?" Elena tilted her head and looked at Elysia.
"Mm, I think it was us who were too careless. Maybe, this girl just arrived when we were careless and also she came in stealth." Elysia nodded in agreement. She was still blushing fiercely, but she couldn't make a complaint because of the sudden change in events.
"Hmm?" Rhea and Nell also looked to the side curiously.
"Wha- How did you get in here without my permission? What do you mean by me coming here in stealth? This is my exclusive place! Also, why are you soaking in a hot spring in a towel!? That's against the norm!" The white-haired girl emphasized her words to convey her annoyance.
"Huh? Of course, it's for the sake of 'family friendly'. We have a small child here. Look at you, so indecent and rated 18 plus. Don't you have any shame and decency?" Elena pointed at the obvious with an arrogant expression.
"Grrr..." The white-haired girl covered her breasts and her private with her hands. She blushed slightly and put on her towel as fast as lightning, then she replied. "I am the owner of this exclusive onsen! You all don't have my permission, so get out of here right now or I will act to throw you out! I am so strong and mighty."
"Oh-o~ I don't see the ownership of this place anywhere, though? We could even enter here so easily, with or without your permission." Elena grinned, then made a random symbol on a nearby rock. "See, I've marked this place, so this place is mine. You newcomer must follow the rules and ask my permission to enter this hot springs chamber."
"That doesn't apply! I've marked this whole place with my scent. This entire onsen chamber is mine." The white-haired girl spread her arms in response.
"Oh my, that's awful. Did you pee all over this place to give off that scent? Ew..." Elena pretended to be a little surprised, but she immediately wore a disgusted expression.
"Cho, what- I don't have to do that to leave my scent. Unlike the dogs or unintelligence animals, I just need to rub my body into every corner of this place!" The white-haired girl gasped and felt angry to be accused like that.
"Is that so? So, what would you like to do?" Elena shrugged her shoulders as if she didn't want to know.
"Get out of here! While I still have compassion because you are all women." The white-haired girl pointed toward the exit.
"What if we refuse? Nee, little one, this strange white-haired girl said that this hot springs chamber belongs to her. Didn't you say that this place has not been discovered by anyone?" Elena tilted her head and refused. She turned to Nell for clarity.
"I don't know, I feel like this girl only discovered this place recently. Maybe a day or two ago. I discovered this hot springs chamber two weeks ago. I named this place the Blessings Spot before you even came here. So, you have no right to claim ownership of this place, naive little girl." Nell tapped her cheek with her finger and concluded.
The white-haired girl gasped. It was true, and she couldn't deny it. She did only find this place two days ago, but had they found this place since two weeks ago? What if they were just told lies?
"Naive little girl? Say that to yourself, little fairy. If you all don't want to leave, then only violence can be done. I was at Saint-level, if you need to know. You foreign races shouldn't be here." The white-haired girl emitted her purple energy aura while grinning.
Seeing that everyone was silent, the white-haired girl became overconfident and arrogant about it. She thought that she was the superior one. "Shaa, yes, fear me. I'm fierce and strong. Oh, I've changed my mind now, you need to leave your treasure behind and get away from here. You've made me angry."
"Oh. So what? Just try it and we'll see what happens." Elena replied with a deadpan expression. She then leaned right next to Elysia and ignored the white-haired girl.
At the same time, she created a transparent yet disguised protective barrier covering her group of four.
"You asked for that. Blame your ignorance and stupidity for ignoring my warnings and making me angry!" The white-haired girl felt belittled and humiliated. Her ego was brushed, and she just wanted to teach these ignorants a few lessons.
*Bam*
The powerful magic and impressive speed were simply stopped by the invisible barrier. The white-haired girl crashed with a violent momentum before getting close to her target. Her head was dizzy, the world was spinning, and she staggered backward.
*Shine*
The transparent barrier gleamed a little as if laughing at the poor girl.
"What was that? A barrier? Nice try, but it won't block my mighty magic power! Ha!" The white-haired girl made a ball of purplish fire in her hand and threw it at the gleamed barrier.
*Bang!*
An explosion occurred, but it died down instantly without any damage to the barrier. Only ripples and splashes of water occurred because of it.
However, it startled Zach and the other beasts. They rushed over to check what had happened to the Goddesses in the hot spring with the highest level.
Among them all, Gio was the fastest to get there. One thing on his mind, maybe, an intruder wanted to disturb his divine master. It couldn't be forgiven!
"What you're doing is pointless. Please don't try to do anything that could harm us or we need to take strict action against you, miss. Be a good girl and sit there. We'll have a good talk." Elysia narrowed her eyes slightly and emitted a golden energy aura to frighten the white-haired girl.
Elena was amused to watch the white-haired girl's silly yet funny behavior.
"Ah-oh, sorry, I-I didn't mean to hurt you. It's all because of that golden-haired woman over there. I just-" The white-haired girl stuttered as her eyes widened to see the golden energy aura. She was scared to death because she almost attacked a divine being!
"Shut up, and sit there in peace. This hot springs chamber is not owned by anyone as it is a blessing from nature. This place was named by the one who discovered this place before you, so take that as a conclusion." Elysia immediately cut off the white-haired girl's words.
"Ahm, mm..." The white-haired girl immediately sat down and soaked in the hot spring. She gulped her saliva with nervousness and fear that came over.
"Graoo!"
"What happened?"
"An intruder? How dare you disturb the almighty ones! Come and face this daddy! Rawr."
Gio, Vanessa, and Zach immediately checked the surroundings. However, there was no sign of battle taking place. Apart from the one with the cat-eared girl over there, there was no other oddity.
"Hehe, it's no problem whatsoever. Just a little beastkin that came sneaking in. Oh, this catgirl has seven tails apparently." Elena waved her hand at the beasts. Yet, her attention was drawn to the white-haired girl's tails.
"I'm not a catgirl, but a snow foxgirl! I'm a seven-tailed snow fox! Grr..." The white-haired girl growled. She felt that she was framed by the golden-haired woman to offend the divine being.
"O-ya? A fox, fufu... Do you like schemes and anything sneaky petty? I need to be careful with your every word." Elene covered her mouth with a slight giggle.
Elysia just rolled her eyes to hear that. Apparently, Elena still wanted to make fun of this white-haired girl.
"..." The white-haired girl chose to remain silent. She knew that she would only get angrier and lose herself just to talk to this golden-haired woman.
[| Lv. 163 | Saint Snow Fox | Yuuki | Female (411) | HP: 268,100 / 269,900 | EP: 378,300 / 378,800 |]
[| STR: 36 | AGI: 88 | VIT: 31 | INT: 53 |]
Elysia checked the status of the white-haired girl, then greeted the snow fox girl. "Your name is Yuuki, right? Let's ignore what just happened. We don't mean anything other than to rest here for a while. Can you tell us a little bit about you and this place? How did you get here?"
"Ye-yes, my name is Yuuki. I am a reclusive fox girl from the snow village far north. I happened to arrive at this secluded place two days ago and have already designated this place as my lair. I've even built a house in this cave..." Yuuki loosened her shoulders because she thought this place would be taken over and she would be kicked out.
