Tanuki Rise of the Yokai Clan

Chapter 166: True Form

With everything that had been decided, Kaval, Ellen, and Gido left this village. They planned to leave by walking, but Tamazuki said, "Do you want me to send you back?"

"Eh?" 3x

Ignoring their confusion, Tamazuki said, "Don't bite your tongue." Anyway, he had owned a lot of things for Ellen, and he could also trust the three of them, so he used his "Shukichi" to teleport to the Blumund Kingdom.

"....." 3x

The three saw their surroundings melt like wax, and the scenery around them changed into the Royal Capital of the Blumund Kingdom.

"Then, I will go back first."

Tamazuki was about to leave, but he was stopped by Ellen.

"Don't forget to visit me! Once a week!" Ellen wanted more, but when she thought how fierce he was in bed, she decided that he should visit her once a week. If they did more, she was afraid that she might not be able to walk.

"Okay, okay."

Tamazuki patted her head, kissed her, then left.

"..."

Ellen touched her lips, watching the spot where he left, and let out a long sigh. She should have expected this, but she had to say it was rather hard to accept as she hoped that she could be his only one. Yet, it didn't matter since the official wife should be hers, okay?

Nevertheless, Gido and Kaval wondered what they should do as the bodyguards in charge of protecting Ellen; yet what Ellen didn't know, her father also tasked the two of them to report in case a bastard tried to seduce Ellen. However, it was too late. Before they realized this, a bastard had already slipped under their radar, so what could they do now?

Gido and Kaval looked at each other and decided to pretend not to see anything.

Yes, that's right!

That's the best way.

Meanwhile, Tamazuki returned, and as expected, he saw everyone in the same spot.

"Yo!"

"....." Everyone.

"Don't "yo" me, bastard!" Rimuru was startled when Tamazuki suddenly disappeared.

"...is that a teleportation?" Shizu asked curiously.

"No, it's an ancient martial art."

"Ancient martial arts?"

"Shukuchi, have you heard of it?"

"Shukuchi?" 2x

Shizu and Rimuru were familiar with this term, but the rest differed. However, it didn't matter how strong he was; the better their lives were.

The thought of those hobgoblins was simple since what they wanted was just a stable life. Even if they had evolved, they remembered how hard their lives were when they were just goblins, so they treasured this stable life of them much. They loved and respected Rimuru, who changed them, so naturally, Tamazuki, who was Rimuru's nephew, was also loved and respected by them.

"But... is it alright for you to leave her?" Shizu couldn't help but ask. She could tell that Ellen loved him so much, yet was it okay for him to leave Ellen just like that?

"Yeah, aren't you too heartless to leave her just like that?" Rimuru also thought the same. If possible, he wanted to bang as many girls as he wanted to, especially when he didn't have a chance to use his "saber" in his previous world, so when he had an opportunity to be reincarnated, he thought to graduate from his virginity. Unfortunately, he was slime, so he lost his "saber."

Tamazuki had such a wonderful girl, yet he just left her like that.

Frankly, Rimuru was speechless and also jealous, but he didn't get that angry since he knew Tamazuki wasn't a human.

"It's okay. She might not be able to accept my form after all." Tamazuki smiled bitterly.

"True form?" 2x

This word quickly made Rimuru understand everything. 'Ah...' He wasn't sure whether it was possible for a human and a monster to be together, but he also understood Tamazuki's worry.

"What do you mean?" Shizu, who didn't know Tamazuki's true identity, was confused.

"Shizu-san, I won't lie to you, but like Uncle, I am also a monster." Tamazuki was frank.

"A monster? Are you also reincarnated into a monster?" Shizu was surprised.

"That's right." Tamazuki looked at Shizu and asked, "Do you want to see my true form?"

"Yes."

There was no hesitation in Shizu's words, and she looked at him with clear eyes.

"...you will be disappointed."

"I won't." Shizu shook her head softly. "No matter what your form is, my feelings won't change."

"..."

Tamazuki stared at Shizu's eyes and saw that those eyes didn't waver even for a moment. He let out a helpless sigh, then said, "Then, look at this."

After a moment of hesitation, he turned into his youkai form, and once again, his monster form was shown to the world.

"..."

At that moment, the world lost its voice.

Everyone was trembling in fear, awe, and also worship, especially those who saw his form for the first time.

His form was beautiful, yet fierce, like a god of beasts.

His mere presence was enough to shake their entire souls.

The Tempest Wolves and the first villagers were okay since it wasn't their first time to see this form, but those new villagers, the group of dwarfs, and Rimuru were speechless.

HUGE!

This was what they thought the moment they saw him.

With a weight towering 18 meters and a length of 40 meters, this form alone was enough to intimidate anyone.

Rimuru once again realized that Tamazuki might have a complex about his figure, and it was also why Tamazuki kept his figure in the chibi form. Nevertheless, even though he was shocked, he was better than most of them as he had seen Veldora. Similar to Tamazuki, Veldora's body was also huge.

Still, Rimuru understood this might be Tamazuki's complex.

Yet, to the surprise of everyone, Shizu stepped forward. Her expression didn't change even if she saw him in this form. Instead, she stepped forward, hugged his mouth with her feeble arms tightly, and rubbed her face.

"...what are you doing?"

When Tamazuki talked, he showed his sharp fangs, which were enough to tear even a mountain.

"See? Even with all of this, my feelings won't change."

"....."

Tamazuki wasn't sure how someone could stay pure even at such an advanced age. He let out a helpless sigh before he turned into his hybrid form, becoming an existence closer to a god itself.

"Then, do what you want."

"I will do that."

As he let out a helpless sigh, Shizu smiled.

Still, because of this, the legend of "White Murder" or the "Ultimate One" might appear because of his existence.

Tamazuki had a lot of things to do, and even with all of that, it didn't mean that he stopped to help with the development of the village. He could tell that Shizu understood that he was hiding something, or she just pretended that she didn't see anything.

Nevertheless, Shizu's presence was welcomed, and no one mistreated her because she was a human. Instead, all of them looked at them with respect, but the female goblinas might be a bit jealous of Shizu.

At night, when he was about to rest, someone knocked on the door of his room. Shizu was also living in his house that he created with his leaf as their house wasn't ready.

However, it was normal as the destruction just happened in the village, and everyone started to build everything from scratch. Moreover, instead of the house, they prioritized the sewage, water supply, waste management, and anything that couldn't be seen by eyes as they were the most important to build a comfortable city.

If they built a house first, it would be troublesome as they might need to renovate in case they needed to add something.

For him, it was an easy thing, and with the help of the group of dwarfs and the workers from the hobgoblins, everything moved in the right direction.

"....."

Only Rimuru wondered whether it was okay for him not to do anything.

Still, because of this, Shizu stayed with him and could create his own house with his leaf transmutation.

When he opened his door, he saw Shizu was there.

"What's wrong?"

She lowered her head as her fingers kept moving, blushing, seemingly nervous, yet after a moment, she made up her mind.

"...I can't sleep."

"Then, sleep with me."

As for what they planned to do?

Was there a need to explain?
