Kitsune In Another World's
Chapter 17 [The Kitsune's Responsibility]

The Capital of the Kingdom of Amamiya

The swift rain that fell, covered the sobs of the girl's cry perfectly. Thick red blood scattered everywhere, receding with the flow of water. No matter if her body was wet with rainwater, the girl still silently hugged the cold corpse in her hands.

"......."

It took a few minutes before the girl took off her embrace. He got up with the corpse in the sling of his arm. Put the body in one of the houses so he doesn't get too wet.

After the corpse of the young girl was laid on the long table, the girl closed her eyes slowly. He left the body in a clean condition.

The kitsune girl, Kitsuna Mio again stood in silence at the place of death of the corpse. Mio lowered her head, seeing a sword that was already clean of blood by the rainwater. Katana is quite light compared to other katana, plus the coat of arms of the Amamiya Royal Family was taken from the ground.

"...... I. I must take responsibility."

Mio left this place with Hotaru's katana in her hand. His eyes as he left the place looked very sad and full of guilt.

No one has led her away. The Kitsune's goal is only one.

"I'm sorry. everyone. I will definitely finish this with my own hands."

TAP TAP TAP

KRAUUKKK KRAUUKKK KRAUUKKK

Mio stood with a katana in her hand. Not far from him, there was a giant spider monster with an upper human body attached to its head. Around the monster, many corpses were damaged whose body parts had already been eaten.

Mio's eyes exuded a heart-wrenching, slicing feeling.

"Kazu-nii's..."

CLIIINGGGGG

Katana Mio shone along with a sharp gaze from her. Mio did not give Kazuha time to realize his whereabouts. Mio quickly ran over and swung her sword towards Kazuha's neck.

SLAAASSSHHHHHH

In just a split second, Kazuha who was unaware of Mio's whereabouts and was busy eating the corpse, split his head from his body. Mio deliberately did so quickly so that Kazuha would not feel any pain

TEST TEST TEST

"I'm sorry... Kazu-nii. I just want to say it."

Mio slashed her sword so that the blood that stuck to it fell. Kazuha's head lay near him. It was a strange situation because Kazuha's head smiled as if despite his suffering.

Perhaps many wonder why Mio did not cure them alone rather than kill him. Answer's simple. Because it's impossible. There are many reasons that make it impossible. One of them, staying alive will not fix anything and will only torture them. Then awakening them with Mio's strength was also impossible. He who knows it the most, if to awaken them, it takes the power of creatures beyond the limits.

Mio glanced at her hands and sword that were dirty with blood.

"......."

"I was only lucky because of Kazu-nii's most unstable condition. For Kota-nii and Lilia-nee, it definitely won't be this easy."

Without wasting any longer, Mio immediately went to the place of her other brother. He himself knows that there is not much time. Before he could come to his senses, his consciousness was already almost consumed out by his darkness mana. If time went on any longer, the darkness would swallow them completely.

And when that happened, the strength of beings outside the boundaries was also useless. They would be entirely bloodthirsty monsters that the enemy might take advantage of for other assassinations. Rather than letting that happen, Mio was already determined to rest her sisters with her own hands.

Right now, the City was already within his reach. The tengu man was sitting at the top of the pyramid of corpses while wiping his katana. The moon shines brightly right in front of him without any cover like buildings or trees.

Mio exhaled for a moment and was directly on the horses of quick attack. The girl intended to end the City like she had when she ended Kazuha. Yet...

CLAAAANGGGGG

"What are you doing, sister?" ask the City with an emphasis.

Mio's heart trembled, but her gaze did not change.

"......"

Seeing Mio not answering him, City became annoyed. The young man slashed his sword until Mio was forced to retreat a few steps back. The city's large and bushy black wings raised it high.

"My jaw! What the hell are you doing?"

"......"

Again Mio just silently did not answer. Mio made use of a location filled with piled corpses and rocks high enough that in a few jumps, she could reach out to the City and attack it with all her might.

But it wasn't as easy as Mio had expected. Because the physical strength of Kota and Mio is not much different, it is clear that Kota will excel because he can use his wings to attack from a place that is not affordable to Mio.

"Are you bored because everyone here is dead?" ask the City again.

Mio kept her mouth shut. The girl continued to attack Kota despite knowing her actions were futile because Kota could easily dodge and instead the City attack was difficult to avoid Mio.

"Ck, now you're ignoring me!? All right, I'll follow your will!" angry City.

CLAAAANGGGGG

TASSSSSSSKKKK

CTAAAAAAAAANNGGGG

SLAAAAAAASHHHH

The night's battle did not end quickly. It is true that the city is very profitable here. But that does not mean Mio can be defeated easily. The reason is hard to understand. Because no matter what injuries Kota gives Mio, it's strange that Mio doesn't care about any of it.

"Obviously Mio felt the pain. The proof was that his eyes twitched a few times when the wound was deep enough. But why did his movements remain smooth!!? Does he not care if he dies!!?" pissed City.

Just like Kota said, Mio did feel pain for every wound she got. The girl simply held back and ignored the pain. He doesn't care about the others. There was only his purpose in his mind. Even so, it does not mean Mio does not care if she dies.

"I can't die yet! At least until my goal is done!!" inner Mio was full of determination.

"Sad..."

The twang of the katana against the katana occasionally sounds beautiful and occasionally sounds exciting. Under the moon that shines perfectly round, the two of them did not budge at all. Luckily inside the barrier, the magic of the Youkai cannot be used. Otherwise, surely the Amamiya Kingdom would have been reduced to rubble by now.

"Huhh.. huh....haa..."

Mio's out of breath. His stamina was depleted just for the sake of reaching the City. If added to the injuries on his body, his condition was clearly not fine.

Miko's beautiful, graceful and neat clothes were torn everywhere and soiled by blood. Her golden blonde hair was messy and her hands became rough from holding the sword for too long.

Since his fight with the City, it had already passed by almost a day and now it had started the afternoon. They kept fighting swords without rest, eating or drinking. Mio herself realized she had reached the limit. But he didn't give up at all. On the other hand City continued to try to kill Mio quickly for this fight to end soon. But Mio managed to dodge most of the fatal attacks that City had launched.

Being aware of each other is already on the limit. Kota and Mio both intend to end everything in one attack. The two took a few steps back and put up their best horses. The city with its two swords was already intending to scatter Mio from the air. While Mio only uses the basic horses Kendo taught the Master to him first. But don't think that Mio's attack will be weaker. The girl gave it her all in this final attack.

Without a cue, without any referee marking, the two drove towards each other at the same time.

SLAAASSSHHHHHH

No one spoke, only silence under the setting sun. Both Mio and City had launched their attacks. Now the two are looking back at each other.

"Hugh..."

Despite vomiting blood, Mio's expression remained calm. The limp leg was instantly unable to support his body.

His body collapsed, hitting the ground violently. Blood also flowed out from his left arm which was neatly cut off by the City sword. Seeing his sister collapsing because of his attack, Kota did not respond to anything and just silently looked from afar.

The Tengu smiled warmly, "This is your victory."

A little equipment, not unwilling to respond, the city could not respond. Although he was the only one who could stand, it was clearly the City's defeat. It could be seen that Katana Mio was not in her hands. Because the katana had already penetrated right in the heart of the City.

On the brink of his death, Kota took the time to see the twilight sky he had loved since childhood.

"Thank you. and sorry..."

"Because I've let you bear it all alone."

Mio was trembling on the ground. Not because the wound from his truncated arm was very painful, but because his heart was unable to withstand this much more. Mio's tears were flowing uncontrollably. He lost his beloved junior in a music game and lost both of his older brothers in less than 2 days, how could he who was mentally just a 15-year-old bear all of that at once?

"Ughhh.. hiks... Kazu-nii's chat... Ni-city..."
