Chapter 229 The You Know What

Part 2

”Miko (Shrine Maidens)” of the Fox God are special being who are respected by the organization. However, this was not because they were competent, but probably because of their symbolic aspect.

Sora is not the only “Miko (Shrine Maiden)” of the Fox God. So it is quite possible that if she makes any major mistake, she could be quietly erased.

It is outrageous to make a mistake when judging the “Byakko (White Fox)”, the one at the top of the organization.? Because it was the very reason for the “Miko’s (Shrine Maidens)” existences.

The “Byakko’s (White Fox)” mask was the real one. Normally, there would be room for consideration, but when the other party is 《Strange Grief (Nageki no Borei)》 , the archenemy of the 『Nine Tails Shadow Fox (Kyubi no Kage Kitsune)』 , then the story is different.

Long story short, Sora, was deceived. On her first mission, she had been entangled in an elaborate and cunning scheme.

Moreover, the man who deceived Sora was even encouraging her to tell the truth.

There was no way I could tell the truth. I would be killed for sure. Even if they didn’t kill me, they would imprison me for sure.

And me being imprisoned is not always better than death. You never know what they will do to you.

I am sure the rest of the “Miko (Shrine Maidens)” group will not help me as I had screwed up.

The option to get off the ship was already gone from Sora.

Sora doesn’t want to die yet. She was born and raised as a “Miko (Shrine Maiden)”, and she won’t accept that she would be killed even though she did nothing wrong.

It may be an unbecoming thought for a “Miko (Shrine Maiden)”, but the mask was definitely real. So, Sora isn’t at fault.

The person who holds the mask of the god is an object of devotion. It is the basis of the Fox-God “Miko (Shrine Maiden)”.

At some point, the meaning changed and we began to serve the 『Nine-Tails Shadow Fox (Kyubi no Kage Kitsune)』, but this was wrong in the first place.

I am just returning to our roots. It is Sora’s mission to return to what it should be. Sora isn’t at fault.

I am just going back to the way it should be. Yes, as an organization serving the new “Byakko-sama (White Fox)”――As the 『Ten-Tails of Fried Tofu (Juubi no Aburaage)』, we will follow his will and expand our Inari Sushi nationwide! Sora isn’t at fault!

“…………” (Sora)

Maybe I should stop being a “Miko (Shrine Maiden)”, was what Sora thought.

However, a Fox-God “Miko (Shrine Maiden)” is not something you can quit just because you want to leave, and even if you do quit――The organization will definitely come after her if they realize that what Sora said was a mistake.

“How is it Cry-san? I had a lot of trouble but――Here’s what we were talking about.” (Sytry)

“I am amazed you were able to get it ready on such a short notice.” (Cry)

Unaware of Sora’s feelings, 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》had a blank and ignorant but loathsome look on his face.

We were taken to a small building a little outside of the center of town.

Maybe because it was originally a coffee shop, the first thing you see is a kitchen that looks out of place. It seemed to have a shared space as well. If she had prepared the kitchen after listening to those incomprehensible instructions, then her management skill is extraordinary.

Would I have to live in hiding for now? Would a change of clothes and a change of hairstyle be able to deceive them a little?

However, the organization planned a major operation in Cleat. Sora is just a “Miko (Shrine Maiden)”, so she doesn’t know the details, but an operation managed by a Seventh Tails must be quite a big one.

The fake “Byakko-sama (White Fox)”――No, the “Shin Byakko-sama (True White Fox)” said that he was short of manpower due to the plan, but Gaff――A thief with a long history of warfare will surely carry out the operation even with that problem.

If I say something wrong, I might even be caught up in his plan.

“I have also prepared the Aburaage! We are going, to make Inari Sushi Bento, right? Preparing everything was very difficult! As it is rarely eaten in this area――” (Sytry)

“Eh? Seriously, you really have everything ready?” (Cry)

“!?” (Sytry)

I have to make a move. There is already no place for me in the original organization. I have to survive somehow――No, serving the “Shin Byakko-sama (True White Fox)” is Sora’s destiny! Sora isn’t at fault!

Forcing myself to cheer up, I clench my fists and raise my face. I raise my voice full of determination.

“”Byakko-sama (White Fox), I am at your service. I, the “Miko (Shrine Maiden)” Sora Zoro, intend to serve the “Shin no Byakko-sama (True White Fox)” with all my heart and soul. Please protect me. Please treat me kindlyyy!! By the way, I, cannot, cookkk! I’ve never done it beforeee!” (Sora)

Isn’t it unreasonable to conquer the world by making Aburaage? What on earth are you thinking? What is the goal of the divine strategist that needs to make me fall from my position!?

I can feel my eyes *guruguru* spinning. I don’t know what’s going on at all. Even so, the “Shin Byakko-sama (True White Fox)” frowned at Sora, who tried desperately to support the idea.

And then Sytry said with a troubled look on her face.

“Cry-san, the thing I hate the most is…… Deficit.” (Sytry)

“…… And the thing you like the most?” (Cry)

.

“That is of course………… The you know what. Cry-san should do more of the you know what with me.” (Sytry)

“Hahahahaha, your jokes are so funny, Sytry.” (Cry)

“Fufufufufu…… Preparing everything was very difficult. But this is all for the you know what, Cry-san. For, the, you, know, what!” (Sytry)

Is it really gonna be alright? I wonder how far ahead “Shin Byakko-sama (True White Fox)” really thought this through?

In the first place, does this “Byakko-sama (White Fox)” understand that the reason why Sora was able to be dispatched so quickly was because there was a possibility that the real one will appear during this operation?

Sora looked at “Byakko-sama (White Fox)” who smiled while looking at the pouty Sytry, but immediately gave up thinking about him.

After all, there is nothing that Sora, a simple “Miko (Shrine Maiden)” can do about it.

TL notes:

Thanks for reading!

Sora still trying to run away from reality!

Your only way to survive now is to conquer the world by selling Inari Sushi Bento!

Tchao à plus!

Footnotes

Shin Byakko-sama : Here Sora changed from 白狐? (Byakko) to 真白狐 (True White Fox) which can be read as Shin Byakko or Mashiro Kitsune which also means White Fox.
