As the demonic power shifted, these fox tails stretched out freely, swaying gently, appearing exceptionally beautiful.

More demonic energy coalesced into a white kimono, covering her body.

Finally, as her physical form solidified, she opened her eyes and looked around with a slightly bewildered expression.

Soon, she saw Mitsuko standing on the ground of the territory square.

Her eyes widened, and she leaped downwards, almost pouncing on Mitsuko, rushing into her arms. She hugged Mitsuko's waist, buried her face in her chest, and tears welled up in her eyes: "Mitsuko!"

"Waaah, Mitsuko, I miss you so much, Mitsuko!"

"I...I feel like I've slept for a long time! I can feel your presence all around me, but I can't see you, and I can't reassemble my body."

"I...I'm finally back now, and I've seen you again, sob sob sob."

Tamamo cried, her little face streaked with tears, and clung tightly to Mitsuko.

Mitsuko opened her mouth as if to say something, but then shook her head and didn't speak. She simply held Tamamo's waist and gently stroked Tamamo's slender and delicate back.

On the other side, Morikawa Yu, Hiizuki, and Ryoko also watched Tamamo successfully recover.

Mitsuko looked at Morikawa Yu and smiled.

Morikawa Yuya smiled.

However, as he looked at Tamamo, he sensed something was amiss.

After crying for a while, Tamamo seemed to have discovered something and gently sniffed it in Mitsuko's arms.

Then she looked up, searching around, and finally her gaze settled on him. Looking at him, a hint of doubt appeared in her still tearful eyes.

This scene looked somewhat familiar to him, as if it were similar to when he first met her and Mitsuko in the realm of divine history, and when Tamamo discovered the demonic mark of the great fox on his body.

Senkawa Yu sensed something was wrong and immediately grabbed Hiiyue's hand.

Chapter 668 Are you going to abandon me again?

Tamamo noticed his actions, and her eyes showed even more confusion.

She snuggled into Mitsuko's arms, sniffled, wiped away the tears in her eyes, stopped sobbing, and pointed at Morikawa Yu towards Mitsuko.

"Mizuko, who...who is he?"

Mizuko paused for a moment, then looked at Morikawa Yu.

She wanted to explain Morikawa Yu's identity to Tamamo, but then paused and fell into a brief silence.

She was just thinking about how to persuade Tamamo to accept Morikawa Yu, but because Tamamo's demonic power had changed, she was so worried about whether Tamamo could be successfully revived that she forgot how to explain Morikawa Yu to Tamamo.

She hasn't figured out how to tell Tamamo about Morikawa Yu yet.

If she were to directly introduce Morikawa Yu's identity to Tamamo, it could very likely cause the newly revived Tamamo to have an emotional breakdown.

However, her silence made Tamamo clearly sense that something was wrong.

Tears welled up in Tamamo's eyes again.

She sobbed, "Mizuko...Mizuko, are you going to abandon me again?"

Mitsuko was taken aback.

Although she was a little taken aback, she looked down at Tamamo, gently patted Tamamo's back, and said softly, "How could that be? How could I not want you?"

Tamamo: "Then why do you smell like him?"

She looked at Morikawa Yu: "It's him! You smell like him everywhere, I can smell it clearly. What's your relationship with him?"

Just now, she was holding Mitsuko and telling her about her feelings of being asleep for a thousand years and unable to be revived, but she smelled a scent on Mitsuko that did not belong to her.

Some of the scents resembled those of Hiizuki, but most of the scents clearly came from Morikawa Yu.

It could even be said that apart from the scent of Hiizuki, Mitsuko's entire body smelled of Morikawa Yu, just like when she was with Mitsuko before.

This made her a little uncomfortable.

She knew she had been asleep for a long time, or rather, a very long time, so long that everything around her felt completely unfamiliar.

But she didn't expect that when she woke up again, Mitsuko seemed to have a new lover, and their relationship was just as close as hers with Mitsuko before.

So who is she?

She's awake now, but Mitsuko has a new lover. Does that mean she still can't be with Mitsuko, and Mitsuko will still ignore her and leave her to live alone?

Mitsuko remained silent for a moment.

She thought for a moment, considering how to bring it up with Tamamo.

Finally, she put her arm around Tamamo's waist and whispered to him, "He...he is someone who is just as important to me as you are."

Tamamo couldn't help but widen her eyes, her beautiful, water-blue eyes looking at Mitsuko, then at Morikawa Yu standing on the other side, before turning her head back in a daze.

"Someone as important as me...as important as me?"

When did you gain someone who is just as important as me?

"fraud!"

"You said I would always be the most important person in your heart, so why is there someone else who is just as important as me?"

She opened her eyes wide, hugged Mitsuko, and tears streamed down her face.

Mitsuko shook her head and sighed: "More than a thousand years have passed now, Tamamo. It's not like so many years ago when everyone was hostile to us, and only a few of us from the Age of Gods cherished each other."

"he......."

"I don't care, I can't accept this, sob, Mitsuko, you can't leave me, and you can't be with him either." Tamamo interrupted her, hugging her tightly, as if she were hanging on Mitsuko's body, her tail also tightly wrapped around Mitsuko's tail.

Mitsuko was taken aback.

Suddenly, she understood what Tamamo was worried about.

She wanted to tell Tamamo that she would treat Morikawa Yu the same way she would treat her, but Tamamo seemed to think that she didn't want her anymore, which was why she was so sad.

But how could she possibly give up Tamamo?

"How could I bear to leave you, you idiot?" She sighed, cupping Tamamo's round and adorable face in her hands. "I never intended to abandon you, otherwise I wouldn't be so eager to revive you."

Tamamo sobbed, "Then why did you say he was as important as me?"

"Isn't it because you don't want me anymore that you've found someone else who's just as important as me? Tell me! Doesn't he listen to you, doesn't cling to you, doesn't make you hate him, doesn't..."

Mitsuko interrupted Tamamo: "Listen to me first, Tamamo."

She now understands completely.

Tamamo really misunderstood her.

However, this cannot be blamed on Tamamo.

After all, Tamamo had only been resurrected after more than a thousand years, so she knew nothing and felt completely unfamiliar with everything around her.

Of the five people present, Tamamo only recognized her and Hishitsuki, and did not recognize Morikawa Yu and Ryoko.

Now that Tamamo has been resurrected, it is discovered that she carries the scents of Hizuki and Morikawa Yu, just like when the three of them played together a thousand years ago, she carried the scents of Tamamo and Hizuki.

Tamamo would definitely feel that Morikawa Yu has taken her place.

But that's not what she thought.

She wanted Tamamo to stay by her side, and Morikawa Yu also liked Tamamo very much. To keep Tamamo by their side, they needed Tamamo's first blood to improve her physique and become a half-demon immortal.

Both she and Morikawa Yu would not let Tamamo leave them, for both reason and emotion.

Therefore, Tamamo's worries were just unfounded.

As for whether Tamamo can accept her relationship with Morikawa Yu, she feels that as long as Tamamo realizes that "husband" and lover are different concepts, it will be fine.

They are lovers, and Morikawa Yu is their husband; there is no conflict between them.

Morikawa Yuya would definitely be happy that they would become his wives, after all, Tamamo is so cute and well-behaved, she just likes to be jealous and is a little clingy, she doesn't really hate or dislike him.

So we still need to make things clear with Tamamo.

It's good that you've explained it clearly.

She gently stroked Tamamo's back, hugged Tamamo tightly in her arms, and said softly to Tamamo, "Listen to me, Tamamo."

"I don't intend to abandon you; I want to keep you by my side."

"I just told you that to let you know that he is just like you. You are both the most important people to me, and I can't bear to live without the two of you by my side."

"I hope you can be with me and him."

"And you still remember what happened back then, right?" Mitsuko's tone changed, and she said in a deep voice, "That night, Asaka told you that I wanted to become the god of humanity and that I didn't want you anymore."

"But it was actually a conspiracy."

"How could I possibly not want you? Even if I were to become the god of humanity, I would still care more about you."

"But you little fool actually believed it and caused such a huge disaster that I couldn't even save you, allowing the remnants of the Divine Era to succeed in their conspiracy."

Tears welled up in Tamamo's eyes again.

She also thought of the night before she fell into a deep sleep.

She was alone at home waiting for Mitsuko to return when she heard someone knocking on the door and discovered it was a cat-shaped yokai.

The other party claimed to be the messenger of Mitsuko Shrine, who was about to become the ruler of Kansai, and informed her of Mitsuko Shrine's decree, telling her to return to the deep mountains of Kansai alone.

She didn't believe what the other party said at all, but she couldn't refute the evidence they presented. She felt distressed and couldn't accept it, so she wanted to destroy Heian-kyo and Kansai so that Mitsuko wouldn't be able to become the head priest.

But after she vented her anger, she found that her power seemed to be out of control, her consciousness became hazy, and she could hardly control her power.

Then she saw Mitsuko return, wanting to save her, but she couldn't. She could only kill her and refine her.

She felt a sense of satisfaction at the time, thinking to herself, "Now you must regret abandoning me." But after falling into a deep sleep, unable to see Mitsuko, she began to regret her actions, feeling that she shouldn't have been so hasty.

Chapter 669 Should I call you husband too?

She should confront Mitsuko directly instead of believing her side of the story.

Then, she began to regret it more and more.

But she felt unable to revive from her slumber and unable to reassemble her body.

Just now, she finally felt the strange restraints on her body disappear, and she was finally able to solidify her body.

She saw Mitsuko and decided to let bygones be bygones, and apologized to Mitsuko.

But she suddenly noticed that Mitsuko seemed to have a different scent, which came from the person standing next to her. Mitsuko even said that the person was just as important as her.

With tears in her eyes and her cheeks puffed out, she looked at Mitsuko.

Mizuko sighed softly, "Listen to me, Tamamo, it was actually a conspiracy."

"That monster was actually a victim as well."

“She thought that after doing that I would become the god of their Kansai, but she didn’t expect that she was tricked, and so was I.”

“If you hadn’t believed her, we could have returned safely to the deep mountains of Kansai. But you destroyed Heian-kyo, and I was forced to become the god of Kansai. I sealed myself away for over nine hundred years, using my divine power to create a divine incarnation for that remnant of the Age of Gods.”

She hugged Tamamo's waist and told him about the things that had happened over the years.

"...Fortunately, someone avenged us."

Mitsuko looked at Morikawa Yu and smiled.

Tamamo's gaze followed Mitsuko's as she looked at Morikawa Yu, her wariness and vigilance mixed with a hint of curiosity.

"You're not lying to me, are you, Mitsuko?"

Mitsuko pinched her cheek: "Of course not, why would I lie to you?"

"He avenged us. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have had such a good opportunity to kill that remnant of the Divine Era. And if it weren't for him, I should have committed suicide to wait for you to be revived together."

"But you should have recovered long ago."

“If I had committed suicide back then, and you had been resurrected, you would have had to wait several hundred years for me to be resurrected, and you would have had to spend those hundreds of years alone.”

Upon hearing this, Tamamo instinctively hugged Mitsuko tightly.

Mizuko shook her head: "But it's all good now. I'm still alive, you've recovered, and there's also Hitsuki."

She looked at Hiyue and patted Tamamo on the shoulder.
