I was Betrayed then Reincarnated as a Kitsune

Chapter 183: Nyapocolypse

[Mio POV]

When we split up with Lunya, we turned right and started sneaking our way down the hallway nya.  It was empty so far, but we stayed quiet just in case some people were there nya.  I stopped everyone before we turned the corner to see if there were any enemies waiting for us, but there werent any nya.  I motioned for us to continue and we did nya.  We looked into every room we passed by and I killed any pirates we came across nya.  Eventually we found a heavy iron door that was guarded by two large pirates nya.  I melted into the shadows and stabbed them nya.

Thats this half of the floor taken care of nya.  I bet Lunya is already done with the second half nya. (Mio)

Can you pick locks Mio? (Velvet)

Yep nya.  But we should check it one of these two has the key first nya. (Mio)

Skadi crouched down and started going through the dead pirates pockets before standing back up with a ring of keys nya.  She then got to testing which key fit in the keyhole nya.  After several tries, she finally got the right one and the door swung open with a slight screech of metal nya.  I started leading the way again as we walked down the stairs nya.  When we reached the bottom nya, we ended up in a room piled high with treasures nya.  Chests, gold, jewels, and more were scattered everywhere nya.  Further in was a cage with a woman sitting behind the bars and her arms shackled above her nya.  I looked around to make sure no one else was in there before we made our way over to the woman nya.

Hello nya.  Are you ok nya? (Mio)

!!!???

The chains started to rattle as the woman shook nya.  In her eyes was the look of fear nya.

%^*%$%^*&

Does anyone speak mermaid nya? (Mio)

She asked if we came here to mock and torment her again. (Skadi)

When Skadi interpreted her words for us, I felt immense rage at these pirates nya.

^@%$&&@& !&@$&*@#^ (Skadi)

When Skadi said whatever she did, the mermaids eyes gained a bit more light to them nya.

%&^$&^$^&^$&***&%&$&%$^&

Skadi then started messing with the key ring again, looking for the key to the cage nya.  Once she got the correct one, she opened the cage and started to unshackle the mermaid nya.  Once she was free, Skadi handed her a potion to heal her wrists that were injured from the shackles nya.

%*%#^%^&^**^^$$^%^^^^^**&%*&% (Skadi)

&^%&%&*&!!!

The mermaid then hugged Skadi before moving on to hugging the rest of us nya.  Tears were running down her cheeks nya.

*%%*&&%*&?

*(&%%^$$$^##^&% (Skadi)

Whatever Skadi said surprised the mermaid nya.  She then looked up toward the roof and clasped her hands in front of her in a way that looked like she was praying nya.

Lets go and see if Luna is done now.  Well figure out where to go from here once we meet back up. (Skadi)

Lets go then. (Velvet)

We started to make our way back the way we came nya.  Once we climbed up the stairs, we started looking for the staircase to the next floor nya.  I could see that the mermaid was trembling again, but that was understandable nya.  When we found the staircase, we went up to find the floor empty nya.  We then went up to the third floor and started looking around it nya.  When we found a large ornate door that was slightly open, we opened it the rest of the way to see Lunya passed out on the desk nya.

Lunya, are you ok nya? (Mio)

She didnt respond nya.

Oh, seems like she hit level 60. (Velvet)

How can you tell nya? (Mio)

Look at the number of tails. (Velvet)

I looked at Lunyas back to see another tail hanging limply beside her already existing one nya.

&((^%*^$$?

^(&%$^^% (Skadi)

What did she ask, Skadi? (Ophidia)

She asked if Luna was alright. (Skadi)

{Oh, hello the rest of you.  Velvet, can you move Luna to a more comfortable place please?}

I will. (Velvet)

When did you get back, Goddess nya? (Mio)

{Right after Luna leveled up.  She managed to explain the rough details of what happened before passing out.}

Thats good.  It saves us time then. (Skadi)

Skadi then looked at the mermaid and started speaking again nya.

%*^%(*&%%$#&%((*? (Skadi)

**^$$^&[email protected]^%#&^&

*&%^*&^$&*&%%&^$^*^$^$^$^^^#@[email protected]^&&^ (Skadi)

The mermaid nodded her head after Skadi finished speaking then the two of them started to walk towards the door nya.

Ill be back.  Ill take her back to her home and explain to the mermaid what happened.  Ill be gone for two days at most, so wait for me here.  Ophidia, you can go and report to the guild about us completing the quest.  Take Soleil with you and rank up as well. (Skadi)

Alright, Soleil, lets go. (Ophidia)

Ok.  Well be back. (Soleil)

Skadi and the mermaid then left the room and Ophidia and Soleil vanished nya.  Now it was just me, Velvet, and Lunya nya.

{So, will the two of you explain in more detail everything that I missed today?}

Well, you know we got a quest to take out pirates.  This is the end of that quest.  We, with Skadis help walked on the bottom of the sea until we found one of the pirates ships.  Then we attached ourselves to it and Luna made them come back to their hideout. (Velvet)

After that, we waited for the pirates to drink themselves silly nya.  Once that happened, Lunya and I snuck around and killed them nya.  Lunya got information that they had captured a mermaid, so we came to this mansion of the pirate island nya.  We split up and Lunya took care of all the pirates on one half of the bottom floor and all of the second and third floor nya.  We rescued the mermaid and then came to look for Lunya nya. (Mio)

{I see.  You were all so busy, Im kind of sad I missed it.}

Eh, most of this wasnt really anything special nya.  Just stabbing some people and sneaking around nya.  Oh, and apparently Velvet finally gave in nya. (Mio)

{About time.}

Hey, at least talk about that when Im not here. (Velvet)

Uuugh. (Luna)

{Oh?  Is she waking up already?}

We looked over to Lunya who was now laying on a bed in a different room nya.  She slowly opened her eyes nya, but they were unfocused nya.

Hmmmm? (Luna)

She started to look around the room before frowning nya.

Hmph. (Luna)

A small opening in space opened next to Lunya and a fox plush came out of it nya.

Hehehe. (Luna)

Lunya then fell back onto the bed asleep nya.

Well, nya.  That happened nya. (Mio)

{Indeed.  But it was cute.}

Indeed. (Velvet)

So, what do we do now nya? (Mio)

I guess we just wait for Luna to wake up and the others to come back. (Velvet)

True nya.  Goddess, do you know how long it will be before Lunya wakes up nya? (Mio)

{If I go by my own experience, then shell wake up tomorrow.  My sixth tails didnt knock me out for very long.  Oh, and the two of you should start using my name.  Mio is my Apostle and Velvet is Lunas, so there is no sense in not using it.  You can tell Ophidia and Soleil as well when they get back.  Plus, if we go by Lunas logic, were all going to be family, so why keep standing on ceremony?}

Alright nya.  Good to be working with you, Goddess Tamamo nya. (Mio)

Indeed. (Velvet)

{Ufufufu.}

Like that, we spent the whatever night was left looking around the room Lunya was in as well as the room we found her in nya.  Several hours later, Ophidia and Soleil came back nya.  Once they were back, Velvet and Soleil went down to the place we found all the treasure in to make not of what was in there nya.  Ophidia was looking out of the window at the jungle with a hungry look in her eyes nya.

Im going to hunt some stuff.  Im hungry and I dont have any food in my inventory.  Its all in masters. (Ophidia)

Why not just teleport somewhere and buy some nya? (Mio)

Wheres the fun in that? (Ophidia)

I see your point nya. (Mio)

Ophidia left the mansion and went into the jungle nya.  Now it was just me and Lunya nya.  I was about to walk to another room to take a nap when Lunya started to move around nya.

Uugghh.  Damn tail pain, it gets worse every time. (Luna)

Morning sleepyhead nya. (Mio)

Hey Mio, how long was I out? (Luna)

About a day nya.  The sunset is soon nya.  Ophidia is out hunting stuff, Velvet and Soleil are taking stock of the treasure, and Skadi went to return the mermaid to her home nya. (Mio)

Sounds good.  Now, to check my stats. (Luna)

Chaos Realm:

Atmos: Hey Tamamo, what did Fenrir want?

Tamamo: She came over to congratulate me on finding my fated one and just to see me.  She's gotten bored and was looking for something to do.  She'll be around a lot more, so expect her to come and visit you sometime.

Fenrir and Atmos are on good terms?  That's a surprise.

Atmos: Hey!

Tamamo: You know how Atmos is, if someone is fluffy enough, she won't jeopardize her chance to be on their good side.

Order: I see, so that's how you keep her from pranking you.  Noted.

Atmos: I wouldn't prank you anyway.  I don't think any would ever work on you with the Authority of Order and all.

Order: That's also good to know.
