I've Turned Into A Fox Girl? Chapter 360: Feeling Free

Once back on the throne, I did the sa for my father as I did my mother. Thankfully, nothing went wrong and the gem perford as expected.

Just like my mother, my father looked around, confused as to why everyone else seed frozen until his eyes landed on .

I felt my breath hitch for a mont as I tried my best not to cry, but I didn't know if I could hold it in much longer. My heart beat rapidly as I awaited what my father would say. Deep inside, a part of wondered if he would even recognise the new .

"S-Shaman?" He reached out with his hand but was hesitant, as if unsure if I was even real.

"Yes, it's Dad." I gestured towards my mother and Elysia who nodded in confirmation. It seed he got sowhat of an understanding of the situation, but before I could get another word out he rushed towards .

He wrapped his arms around and hugged tightly. I was taken aback, as I didn't expect that kind of reaction from him. However, the next few words that he spoke pushed over the edge.

"You've grown so much, I don't know what has happened exactly, but know I am proud of you for even making it back here." My father probably didn't even know the half of it, much less how long it had been, yet he hasn't hesitated to shower with his affection, hitting right in the heart.

"I-I…" I couldn't keep the strong front any longer, tears sliding down my cheeks. My mother ca up from behind, hugging and Dad while caressing my head.

"You've had a long journey, dear. It sounds far from over, but for now, you can forget about it and relax." My mother whispered into my ear and I just lted into their embrace. I began to sob uncontrollably as I finally let out all my tension and worries, which had accumulated over so much ti of being unsure about my family's well being. The part that had rged with my soul was flaring as well, bursting with emotion as well as relief.

Even Elysia, who would be jealous under any circumstance, was teary-eyed watching everything, which was a surprise.

"I-I thought you guys might have d-died *sob* I wouldn't have known what to do if y-you were gone." I couldn't deny that this thought had always been there at the back of my mind, but I refused to acknowledge it up till now. I was afraid that if I thought about it too much, I wouldn't be able to bring myself to co here.

"Well, you saved us and we are both alive and well."

"We can't thank you enough, Shaman. Who knows how much longer we could have survived in the stasis, but that doesn't matter now."

My parents held tight, constantly reassuring while I sobbed my heart out. Experience tales at m v|l e'-

After exhausting all my tears, I was able to calm down and get to explaining the current situation to my father. We sat on the floor of the throne room as I couldn't be bothered moving after crying so much.

I elaborated further on what was going on outside and the current status of the world. Surprisingly, they weren't too shocked, though they only got frozen 3 to 4 years ago, so they might have had so inkling of what the pope was planning.

"I see, so Klaus really is going through with it. He must have snapped around the ti we got frozen." My father spoke out loud, making curious what his relationship was with him.

"Indeed, ever since he lost his partner, he took an interest in black magic." My mother gave a little more context on why the pope has gone down such an insane path. I couldn't help but laugh internally at how simple the reason was.

"Did you two know him personally?" I wanted to know, as my father might have been friends with the pope.

"Your father did since he… how do we put this?" My mother seed to be unsure if she should disclose so information, which only raised my curiosity.

"There isn't a reason to hide it, we can tell her." I was left more confused, as I didn't know what it could be that they were hiding. My father then turned to and looked directly into my eyes, shifting his tone.

"It may be hard to believe, but Freja, Klaus and I were all teleported here from another world together. We were all granted separate systems that gave us an edge over everyone else." Explaining the secret, I was honestly shocked by the news that my father was also from another world.

"It may be hard to grasp, but I can vouch he is telling the truth." Mother chid in. Not that she needed to, as I was stunned for completely different reasons than what they thought.

"T-this is probably a good ti to ntion that I also ca from said world as well." I wasn't sure what their reaction would be. Would they even still think of as their daughter?

"WHAT!?" Both of them shouted in confusion.

"Don't freak out! I am still your daughter, my na was the sa in the previous world and I more or less rged souls with the Shaman in this body." I quickly gave a brief description of what happened, hoping I didn't just screw up.

"We know you are still our daughter, but we didn't think you would get a reincarnated soul." It seems like I misinterpreted their reaction, as my father seed to know why, or at least what had happened to .

"Reincarnated soul?" I thought I knew everything, but it sounds like I'm missing a couple of pieces.

"Looks like you won the bet Makoto." My mother sighed and I was left more confused.

"Okay, I'll explain everything, but let's go sowhere more comfortable than the floor. I also want to know who your lady friend is." Both my parents got up from the ground as Elysia, who was behind , offered her hand.

I took it, but Elysia refused to let go even after helping up, probably to subtly show my father what our relationship was. I looked back and saw him raising an eyebrow, with my mother quickly whispering into his ear.

He widened his eyes for a mont before nodding his head in so kind of approval.

Having returned to the dining room, my mother had filled my father on our current predicant. However, he didn't have any ideas on how to resolve it as of yet, so right now we just had to wait for Clara and the others to arrive.

I also introduced Elysia and gave her backstory. Surprisingly, my father gave a much more welcoming reaction.

"I didn't expect you to date a Dahlia, but seeing as those outdated fools are dead, I don't see a problem with it. If anything you should be rewarded since they had a bounty on them, but that can co later." It was reassuring to hear, but I had yet to tell them I was dating Clara, the demon lands queen's sister.

"Not to ntion you have great taste in wom-." Before he could finish the sentence, he got smacked in the back of his head and slamd into the table by my mother.

"I'm right here you pervert of a husband." My mother pouted which was kind of cute, but also terrifying as that smack had a lot of strength behind it.

"Yeah don't look at like that, I'm only for Shaman's eyes!" Elysia quickly hugged from behind, trying to use as cover from my father's gaze.

"Owww, good to see nothing has changed despite being frozen for years." Despite rubbing the back of his head, he seed in good spirits rather than upset.

"Anyway, I should also tell you that there is one more." I wasn't sure how to co clean about it. I'm royalty in this world, so my marital status will not remain a secret for long. Thus, having more than one wife seed unlikely to be accepted.

"One more what?" I caught the curiosity of both of my parents, who both stared at , awaiting an explanation and only adding to the pressure.

"I may be in a three-way relationship with Clara, the demon queen's sister." I couldn't help but feel afraid of their reaction despite them being accepting of everything so far.

"Wait, wait, Clara, the demon girl Hiko took in?" My mother instantly recognised the na.

"Interesting, my daughter is building a harem." My father pushed up his glasses, looking proud that I have 2 girlfriends.

"Yes, it's the Clara you are thinking of." I ignored what my father said, as I instantly realised he was a degenerate and wanted to preserve what was left of his old image in my mind.

"Now that's a twist I didn't expect to hear today." My mother rubbed her forehead, processing everything.

"If anything, that's great news, I always wondered what a kitsune mixed with demon genes would look like." My father was already thinking of the future. Hearing that I couldn't help but blush as we had only recently talked about having kids.

"Don't you dare think about getting a concubine, otherwise I'll kick you out." My mother glared at my father, knowing exactly what he was actually thinking.

"I wasn't thinking that! Anyway, I think that's great, Shaman. I know you are probably wondering if it's okay to have such a relationship, but luckily here it doesn't matter. Cross-race is a bit of a grey area, but you have nothing to worry about." Just like that, my father dispelled all of my worries. Perhaps it was a benefit that he was also from another world, as I'm sure similar thoughts have crossed his mind before.

"I'm glad to hear that. Anyways, now it's your turn. What did you an by a 'reincarnated soul'?" I could guess what it ant of course, but I felt like there was more to it than just reincarnation.
