Very soon.
From outside the grand hall, a group of lean Kitsune Youkais swaggered in.
It seems that the demise of Nyūdō is already known to the Kitsune Clan.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have come so quickly.
So fast that the Tanuki Demon side hadn't even reacted.
The Kitsune Clan leader this time was a male fox who appeared quite young.
Compared to other Tanuki Demons and Kitsune Youkais, this young male fox actually resembled a human more.
His beast ears atop his head and the tail behind him were conspicuously fluffy and white. He wore a scholar-like plain robe, with a jade pendant on his waist, and held a folding fan, radiating an air of a noble young man.
Okite Tanuki recognized him—
Fox Jūrokurō.
Originally the youngest son of Okite Tanuki's archenemy "Genkoko.".
However, Genkoko died a long time ago in the Matsuyama Castle incident, and Fox Jūrokurō took over his father's mantle, and now seems to be the actual leader of those Kitsune Clans on the edge of Iyo.
