MMORPG: I was BUGGED-Chapter 347: Satomi, the Nine Tailed Kitsune

"Believe us, Lady Satomi."

Xin opened his mouth to say more but couldn’t think of anything else to add. He wasn’t charismatic, nor was he talkative, so he kept his voice shut tight.

On the side, Victor and Seraphim struggled to hold back their laughter. They knew that Lord Scrooge wanted to express something but failed miserably due to his silent nature.

On the side, Hilda rubbed her eyes, attempting to shake off the drowsiness from her system.

Meanwhile, Sylvan’s excitement was still through the roof as he tried to peek behind the curtain while kneeling on the floor, attempting to catch a glimpse of Lady Satomi.

While fidgeting here and there to take a peek, he muttered at Lord Scrooge, "Idiot, just because you tell her to believe in you, doesn’t mean she’ll do it. Maybe a quest would change her heart? Or perhaps me?"

Victor was about to step in to convince Satomi when the servants, who were like statues until then, suddenly moved.

The white fox servants moved with a deliberate grace, their actions slow and purposeful as they began to pull the curtain.

Victor and the rest were taken aback by the sudden movement move.

While Sylvan’s head wanted to burst from holding his breath.

Xin, too, found himself surprised by the scene. He hadn’t anticipated that merely conversing with Satomi would prompt such a response.

In his expectation, he assumed a more straightforward agreement, not the theatrics of revealing the mythical figure behind the curtain.

As the magical curtain was slowly drawn aside, the anticipation in the hall reached a crescendo.

The white fox servants, with their elegant and measured movements, deliberately pulled the curtain. The fabric glided over the stage like a gentle breeze, revealing bit by bit the grandeur that lay beyond.

As the curtain reached its final position, the room fell into an immediate hush.

The collective gasps and held breaths created a profound silence that seemed to amplify the moment.

Xin and the others were still kneeling on the floor, and gazed in awe at the majestic figure now revealed before them.

Lady Satomi emerged into view, and the sheer scale of her presence was breathtaking.

She was colossal, nearly reaching the height of the ceiling, her aura radiating throughout the hall. The nine bushy white tails behind her swayed with a grace that seemed to defy the laws of physics, and her white fox ears adorned her head, adding an endearing touch to her countenance.

Satomi possessed the face of a maiden, and her beauty was beyond compare. Her skin, a pristine shade of porcelain white, seemed to glow softly, accentuating the divine nature of her being. Her matte white hair cascaded down in elegant waves, flowing like a waterfall of silk.

Her eyes, the shade of brilliant blue jewels, held a profound wisdom that spoke of centuries of existence. They gleamed with a mysterious depth, revealing an understanding of the world that surpassed mortal comprehension.

Satomi’s gaze, though intense, carried a sense of tranquility that put the onlookers at ease. Her brows were mere thick dots, a minimalist touch that enhanced the purity of her expression.

Despite the simplicity, her face bore a timeless beauty that captured the essence of both wisdom and ethereal charm.

Xin and the others, now fully aware of the legendary figure before them, were enraptured by the sight.

The profound silence continued, allowing the magnitude of the moment to settle in.

Victor, Seraphim, Sylvan, and even Xin found themselves spellbound by the presence of Lady Satomi.

On the side, Hilda scoffed, muttering to herself, "I’m far more beautiful. She only has so many tails while I have my muscles."

The white fox servants returned to their stoic positions after revealing Satomi. The hall remained in a state of hushed reverence, awaiting the words of the mythical being who presided over Yamamura Village.

After a brief pause, Satomi spoke, her voice echoing through the hall with a soft resonance that carried both power and grace.

"I see . . . then looks like I just have to trust you," she said, winking at Lord Scrooge’s way.

Sitting in a close row, no one could determine the target of that wink. Sylvan, however, assumed it was aimed at him and promptly fainted on the spot, blood oozing from his nose.

"Ah . . . this is heaven. She’s more awesome than in the books I have read," he uttered with a love-struck expression.

Victor and Seraphim were baffled as to why the fox leader suddenly changed her stance. One moment she was distrusting, and the next she revealed her appearance and let them stay here and explored.

"I have observed the ebb and flow of time, witnessed the conflicts between our kind and yours. The scars of those encounters run deep, etched into the very essence of our existence," Satomi continued.

Satomi’s gaze, though compassionate, hinted at the pain and sorrow that came with the passage of centuries.

Her eyes, like windows to a distant past, reflected the complexities of coexistence between Yokais and humanoids.

"You stand before me, seeking understanding, seeking a bridge between our worlds. Your words carry sincerity, and I sense a genuine desire for harmony. However, actions speak louder than words."

As she spoke, the giant drapery began to gently slide back into place, concealing Satomi from view once again.

The hall, though returning to a state of silence, now held an air of contemplation.

Xin and the others, still on their knees, exchanged glances, recognizing that their encounter with Satomi had ended.

Xin was surprised that he could only max his relationship level with her up to [Friends]. Was there something specific he needed to do to completely max out his relationship level with her?

This was the first time that such a limitation had occurred with an NPC, and Xin wondered if there were other NPCs with similar restrictions.

It seemed like he still needed to explore his abilities and find out.

As the curtain closed, Lady Satomi’s mystical voice continued, "If you truly seek harmony, you must prove your intentions. Complete quests and help the Yokais in the village and demonstrate your commitment to understanding our ways and respecting the delicate balance that exists between our realms."
