Cultivation Struggles of a Lowly Fox

Chapter 214 – Finishing the Blood Fox

Aiko blinked a few times, it was unlikely that the system would give her something this nice, but she could not see the demerits of this.

She glanced at the Blood Fox and she could see certain red dots on her body. There was also a large gash on her back, the one that she tried to smooth out.

'Let's not touch the big one, but I wonder if I can do something about the others...' Aiko thought about it.

She gently touched a place on the Blood Fox's back.

"Mhm." The Blood Fox squirmed gently.

'Interesting...' Aiko nodded and picked up her Massage Tool. She wondered if she would be able to make the red area go away.

She used the gentlest 'gear' and placed it on the Blood Fox's back.

The Blood Fox was startled by the sudden sensation and her back arched, almost throwing Aiko over.

"What in the world..." Aiko tilted her head.

"It tickles..." The Blood Fox said gently, but Aiko could hear embarrassment in her voice.

"Hmmm..." Aiko frowned slightly, was she not allowed to touch the lower part of her back?

'Then how about the upper part?' Aiko tilted her head, her upper back was almost entirely red, especially around her shoulders.

She placed the Massage Tool on her upper back with the lowest setting. The Blood Fox gave a slight reaction, but nothing excessive like before.

Aiko nodded, she wouldn't be thrown over and she would be able to work on it.

She slowly worked on the red areas while the Blood Fox was giving soft purrs.

'This is amazing...' Aiko nodded slowly. She could see those parts disappear, but at the same time, it didn't take long until they returned.

She played around with the red areas and realised that some red parts would turn other parts into red parts.

Aiko would have to figure out this puzzle if she wanted to get rid of the red area...

...

She massaged the Blood Fox for a good 2 hours before she figured out the puzzle.

At this point, the Blood Fox had no resistance against Aiko's advances and just lay there moaning softly from the nice feeling.

Aiko finished working on her back and stood up. The Blood Fox had no intention of standing up and Aiko could not blame her.

'I'm not heavy, but after a few hours I wouldn't be able to stand up either.' Aiko chuckled.

She let the Blood Fox lay on the bed until she got up, but in the meantime she would play with the gift a bit more, introducing more gears and speed of the whirls.

What she realised after working on the Blood Fox's back was the fact that she couldn't use certain kinds of twists and whirls on her back, otherwise it would block other parts of her back.

That meant she would have to improve this Massage Tool a lot more, but she didn't have all that much time for it.

While she would make the best gift possible for Lady Liu, she also wanted to finish this mission, since she didn't want to meet up with more undead assassins. They were not nice to fight...

Aiko nodded gently. She would just do her best.

...

{Umbra Fox right after Aiko started her 'assault'}

The Umbra Fox squirmed on the roof. She didn't expect Aiko to be so assertive.

She was bothered by the Blood Fox's protests, yet it didn't take long for her to be turned into a moaning mess.

The Umbra Fox's mind spun. What if she was found out? Would she end up like the Blood Fox? And what was even happening inside that room??

The Umbra Fox gulped. She was unable to keep watch under these circumstances and she scurried inside her room...

...

{Blood Fox inside the room}

Aiko disassembled the whole thing and introduced more separate Runes, these would control the twist and speed of the whirl.

Allowing much finer control of the wand.

The Blood Fox supported her upper body with her arms. Her whole dress was a mess, yet Aiko paid no attention to her.

There was relief and dissatisfaction inside the Blood Fox. She was confused and annoyed by this, yet she could not do anything about it.

Aiko really paid no attention to them and she would have to live with this. She liked this part of Aiko, but at the same time... there was something wrong with it.

Everyone would stare at her and she was bothered by it, yet at this same moment she was bothered by the fact that she was not being stared at?

The Blood Fox shook her head and fixed her clothing.

She looked over at Aiko who was diligently working on her 'gift'.

The Blood Fox wanted to warn Aiko about this 'gift', but at the same time, she didn't have the heart to stop Aiko from finishing it.

Aiko looked like she was enjoying herself, which was somewhat rare these days.

She was either neutral or annoyed. She didn't do much and was bored often.

'It's good that she is back.' The Blood Fox stood up and realised that her back no longer hurt from the weight of her chest.

'... Incredible.' The Blood fox stretched and twisted her back, yet it no longer hurt.

'I take it back...' The Blood Fox narrowed her eyes. 'That's an incredible gift.' She nodded towards the diligent Aiko before leaving the room.

Aiko had her toy to play with and she would give an amazing gift to Lady Liu, so she didn't have any reason to stop Aiko from continuing.

...

The Blood Fox went outside the room, but she could not find the Umbra Fox.

She walked around the courtyard only to hear faint moans from a certain room.

"What a naughty little Fox." The Blood Fox licked her lips. She was fascinated by the fact that the Umbra Fox turned into a pervert.

...

{Aiko alone inside a room}

Aiko finished tinkering with her gift and looked towards the bed.

"Huh..." Aiko was a little startled that the Blood Fox was nowhere to be seen.

'Was I working so hard that I ignored her completely?' Aiko felt slightly bad about that part.

'I should probably go talk to her later.' Aiko first needed to patch a few things.

She needed to assemble it first, since she finished her tinkering. It would be bad if she lost any parts.

Store it inside her Storage Ring so it's safe.

With that finished, she was able to leave the room.

Finding the Blood Fox was an easy thing to do, since Aiko had sensitive senses. Picking up a trail was easy for her to do, not to mention this courtyard was quite small, so it would be impossible for them to hide from her.

Aiko located the Blood Fox quite quickly. She was sipping tea, but this time there was no buzzing sound.

Aiko stepped closer and the Blood Fox reacted to her.

"Morning." The Blood Fox smiled gently.

"Oh." Aiko completely ignored the fact that she worked throughout the night. "Morning." Aiko smiled back.

"How are you feeling?" Aiko asked the Blood Fox.

"Very good, it's a very good gift." The Blood Fox smile bloomed; her shoulders and back no longer, so she gave it high evaluation.

"That's good." Aiko nodded and noticed the Blood Fox fidgeting.

"What's wrong?" She asked her.

"Would it be possible to create more of them?" The Blood Fox asked Aiko. She had a desire to possess it.

Aiko thought about it. "If we have the materials, there shouldn't be a problem."

She would be able to improve it over time until she perfected it, which would be the perfect situation for her.

Aiko would be able to tinker with things once again and make money that she would be able to spend... on something.

'Mei needs a lot of Herbs, so we can use money on that.' Aiko gently nodded. She would be learning more practical alchemy once she returned, so she should gather means of creating funds for it.

Aiko sat down next to the Blood Fox. The Blood Fox immediately poured her tea and they sipped it together.

"Where is the Umbra Fox?" Aiko asked.

"Outside shopping for food." The Blood Fox smiled softly. "She was gathering snacks that we could recreate."

"And she didn't even invite us..." Aiko clicked her tongue and shook her head.

"She did invite us, but you have ignored us." The Blood Fox giggled.

Aiko awkwardly coughed. She didn't expect that her hyper-focused mind would just filter everything out.

"Well... I'm sorry." Aiko felt quite bad about it, since she wouldn't be able to taste those snacks.

"She will be coming back soon, she will also bring back some snacks for us." The Blood Fox said gently.

Aiko's ears immediately perked up. She was slightly hungry and it would be great if she ate something delicious~.

Aiko nodded. "Good, good~" She giggled.

"By the way, are you ready to leave or do you want to do anything else in this Capital?" Aiko asked the Blood Fox.

"Hmmm..." The Blood Fox paused. No matter how much she thought about it, she was unable to think of anything that would hold her back.

"Not really." The Blood Fox said, shaking her head. "Humans are not all that amusing and their only redeeming feature is their food." She shrugged like she didn't care at all about this whole thing.

Aiko nodded, but before she could respond, the bush rustled.

They both snapped towards it.

"I was found out, huh?" A male voice drifted from it.

"In that case, I will-" He was making a monologue, but Aiko interrupted him.

"It's that shit-covered animal!" Aiko suddenly yelled.

The Smelly Wind choked. "I'm not shit covered!"

The Blood Fox covered her nose. "Go away, you have already contaminated our courtyard."

He got blow after blow into his fragile ego.

"You-" He was taken aback by their insults.

"You stink like a 100-year pile of diarrhoea!" Aiko proclaimed. "You walk like you have the shits!"

Aiko scoffed. "You choke up like diarrhoea in the middle of the run!"

The Smelly Wind was so hurt that he considered walking back, but he couldn't really back down.

He was unable to hurt that Human that hurt him and this little Fox was an annoying eyesore the whole time.

She stole most of the spotlight, be it good or bad. Nobody paid any attention to him, since everyone believed the only thing going for him was his bad smell!

He was upset, enraged even, but at the same time, he was unable to take his revenge since that Human was too strong...!
