The Fox Goddess



No one was able to tell if what Yuki had just swallowed is making her any better after all, Yuki's main injury is her Soul Veins and they wouldn't be able to tell if she was recovering or not because they are too weak. They needed to be at least Saint Rank and higher, or if they have a high connection with the Soul they would be tell and analyze another person's Soul Realm after taking a look at them. But currently, there are only three people within them who could see what is happening in Yuki's Soul Veins, and there was just good news.

"It actually worked! Your Pill is amazing Celeste! It healed all of Yuki's Soul Veins that got disconnected and blocked from her Soul Realm! How can I ever thank you, please tell me if you need something, I will definitely help you with it!" Ayame held both of Celeste's hands with teary-eyed as she constantly thanks Celeste for healing Yuki.

"You don't need to thank me Goddess Ayame, I just did what is right and that is to help Yuki. I don't want to see her hurt and in pain and I know the pain of being injured by the Soul Veins and just remembering it makes me shiver because of how painful it is, every move you do will cause pain especially when you use your Mana/Qi, it will bring pain that is more than you can imagine." Celeste shrugged it off but her words served as a warning and a reminder to all of them, no one knew that damage in the Soul can be that painful. Of course, they knew that it would be extremely painful, but it looks like what they imagined at first is wrong. It was even beyond that.

"Mommy! Are you in pain, where? Please tell us, I will help you!" Aika without any hesitation already arrived in front of Yuki and hugged her tightly and in Yuki's arms she was already crying once again. After hearing Celeste's words she instantly got a bad premonition inside of her heart and after she heard all of her sentences she already that all this time her Mommy was in pain while all of them were kept in the dark because Yuki has simply the same reasons as Aika, she doesn't want for any of them to get worried especially Ayame.

"Ahhh… don't worry about me, Aika. I'm fine. It's not even that painful for me anyway. Plus… I have a high pain tolerance. I can handle this much pain because of it." Yuki silently patted Aika's head with her hand, even though she ate Celeste's Pill it can only do much because what it heals is the most wounded part of the body and it wasn't even a question of what is the worst injury Yuki has. But without her even realizing it, she once again found herself surrounded by everyone even the little phoenix who didn't hide also dropped in Yuki's head and spread its wings all around her.

"Even if you say that, how can we not worry about you? Even if you have a high pain tolerance, we are not the same as you! Just the thought of someone in our family in pain is a miserable feeling that we don't ever want to feel. So please, I hope that none of us hides the fact that they are sick or in pain because it will only make us worry." Kurokami whimpered as she leans her body to Yuki while lowering herself to get even closer to a hug but it wasn't just her it was everyone.

"Okay! I'm wrong, just don't kneel on the ground. I don't like seeing any of you do that." Yuki said quickly as she held all of them up with her Ice because she doesn't want to see any of them kneeling on the ground and when she did so, she found that the pain that she felt earlier has vanished completely. When she first lit up the entire place with her Ice, she felt pain in her whole body but because of her abnormally high pain tolerance she didn't react much to it, but if it was any other person, they would have already got on the ground screaming in pain.

"You better keep your promise okay, or else all of us we'll be mad at you!" Kurokami puffed her cheeks as she turned around but even so, she had a smile on her face and so as everyone. Soon after, the forest was covered with laughter as everyone was finally back in their mood, Yuki and the rest then returned to their table once again but she didn't expect all of the food that she has prepared to be already gone. She had originally thought that it would last until tomorrow but it seems that she had miscalculated.

"Ahh… we ran out of food and drinks for the kids. Do any of you guys have some on your Spatial Ring?" Yuki casually asked as there was no more food for them to eat. In all, she was not worried about herself because she can still drink some of her wine, but the same thing can't be said with the three children here. There was absolutely no way that she would give them wine even if they are thirsty. But just as she expected none of them carry such things because they were cultivators and bringing food and drinks is only a waste of storage.

"Ummm… Yuki, I cooked some food. Would you like to try them?" Suddenly, the quiet Celeste suddenly raised a question and asked if she could bring out her home-cooked food for everyone to eat. She has already prepared this in advance after knowing that Yuki would be eating out in the forest, so she went straight home and tried her best to cook which was something she haven't tried. But with the help of Alisha, she was able to make some delicious foods. But when Yuki stared at her, she got even more nervous and embarrassed as she then quickly added.

"You don't need to worry, I got help from my Mother who is an excellent cook! But if you don't want to eat them, it's also fine…" Celeste had no confidence in her cooking so she was a little tense and afraid that she might disappoint Yuki because of her cooking, but before the person she was afraid of could even say something. Kurokami already jumped in and said something.

"I want to eat it! I want to have a taste of your cooking, so can you bring it out for me, Amane?" Celeste was shocked because Kurokami wasn't even shy at all and directly called her by her first name. But even so, she showed a smile full of gratitude as her confidence slowly goes up, and without further ado, she showed the dishes that she made for all of them.

"Wow… All of them look delicious, right sis Fumiko?" Kurokami added and without any hesitation, she grabbed her chopsticks and picked up a piece of meat, and put it in her mouth. The piece of meat was slightly tough but the taste was just right for her taste, and the toughness of the meat isn't that much of a problem anyway considering that she was a complete beginner.

"It's delicious! You have a talent for this, Amane! If you cook some more, I'm sure that you will get a lot better at it!" Fumiko also tasted Amane's cooking but she tasted a fish dish that was grilled, unlike the meat which was stewed. It also has problems as it was a little bland but other than that, she doesn't have much to say to it.

"Thank you… I'm glad that all of you liked it. But I hope you can be honest with me and say the mistakes that I made with these dishes." Amane was happy that they liked her food but even so, she knows that there are some problems with her food but she was happy enough to get complimented by them. And soon after everyone also started to eat her food and there were just some common mistakes that were already good enough for a beginner, like undercooked vegetables, bland food, and other common mistakes in cooking. But even so, none of them complained that much because it was already enough for them. And in the corner of her eyes, she saw Yuki pick up her chopsticks and also ate a piece of meat, this got her nervous once again.

"It's good…" Yuki gave her comment as she didn't drop her utensils and only continued eating which made Amane's heart flutter in happiness.
