Chapter 72 The Immortal Kitsune

72 The Immortal Kitsune

Mal had always found Luna Autumn to be incredibly beautiful.

But as she stood before him right now, he could not help but find her even more enchanting than before.

Her usual loose and frilly kimono had been discarded and traded in for a set of tactical clothes.

She wore simple black combat pants that were tucked into a pair of dark boots.

Her upper body consisted of a long sleeved black shirt with a sleek metallic vest covering up her large chest.

The milky white hair that she was famous for had been restrained into a beautiful French braid that hung delicately off her shoulder.

But the greatest surprises for Mal were the fluffy fox ears on top of her head and nine swaying tails behind her back.

Without even meaning to, Luna had left her young protege completely starstruck.

"Damn..."

Luna let out an mused giggle as she covered her mouth with her clawed fingers. "Are you saying. that because I caught you about to do something foolish or because you like my appearance?"

"Like doesn't quite cut it..." He muttered under his breath.

With Luna's new appendages on top of her head, she of course heard him and her heart began to flutter with excitement.

"GROOOOOAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!"

The pair were suddenly reminded of their less than friendly surroundings as their ears were filled with the roaring of the now irritable ice giant.

'I nearly forgot that we weren't alone... That's a bit embarrassing.' Luna thought shyly.

The bewitching guild master glanced overhead at the glass ceiling that was separating them from the outside world.

"Hey Mal, think you could help me out here a bit?" She asked as she pointed to the sky.

It didn't take him very long to grasp her meaning and soon enough his body was returning back to it's normal appearance.

He thought he'd feel a bit colder since his shirt had been ripped after transforming but strangely enough, he found that it was actually rather bearable.

Closing his eyes and taking a deep breath, Mal focused on his connection to Nyx and allowed his consciousness to drift off into the night.

The third travelled all the way between the eyes of the still reeling ice giant, and all three creatures came to a dead stop.

Luna sighed in relief and let her body float back down to the ground where she landed a few feet away from a stunned Malachi.

She couldn't help but smirk as she saw the stunned look on his face, and a sense of pride began to well up from within her chest.

In her entire life, she had received a lot of looks from a lot of different men, and had thought herself It was the way he looked at her when they were alone, as if there was no one in the world above or 14:12

equal to her in terms of beauty or importance.

used to it by now.

But somehow the look that Mal was giving her now was different from all of them, and she didn't quite understand why at first.

But after a moment, she remembered a conversation that she'd had with Sei about one of the reasons why she fell in love with Malachi.

It was the way he looked at her when they were alone, as if there was no one in the world above or equal to her in terms of beauty or importance.

'Now I understand what she meant... No wonder she has already fallen so far.'

"It's rude to just stare at me like that you know?" Luna said with a joking smile. "You could at least tell me what you thought of my performance."

Luna's transformation finally became undone and the tattoo on her forehead began to glow with a bright light.

A small white fox jumped directly out of her tattoo and grew to it's normal cute size before finding it's usual place in Luna's arms.

"Kyuuu!!"

BOOM!

The arrows embedded within the heads of the icy enemies finally exploded, and three columns of bright blue fire swallowed their bodies whole.

Standing in front of three pillars of flame and lovingly stroking her pet, Luna looked nothing short of mesmerizing and left Mal able to form a complete sentence.
