I was Betrayed then Reincarnated as a Kitsune Chapter 136: The King Arrives

[Luna POV]

The next couple of days was spent mostly in the kitchen preparing everything. When the chefs of the royal family arrived, they spent a while going around and checking everything so that they knew what was what and where was where. They then checked on the ingredients that I provided and were surprised by the wyvern at. A few days after that, other nobles started to arrive. I was now with Ophidia and the others waiting for the day of the wedding to arrive.

Im surprised that this much work goes into preparing for a wedding. Ive seen several of them from a distance, but never participated in the set up. (Velvet)

It is quite hectic, isnt it? (Soleil)

I was about to say sothing when I felt a powerful presence approaching the village.

Seems like Skadi is coming. (Luna)

Really! (Ophidia)

Yep. I wonder what she is doing though. (Luna)

It was then that mom ca to us.

Luna, co with , the royal family is arriving shortly. (Amagi)

And that answers that question. (Luna)

What do you an? (Amagi)

Dont worry about it. (Luna)

We moved to the village entrance just in ti to see an extrely ornanted carriage coming. From a distance, it looked like solid gold and silver.

I realize there is a aning to having sothing like that, but isnt that going a bit too far? (Luna)

While I know what youre trying to say and completely agree with it, please keep thoughts like that to yourself. (Amagi)

I will, but even if I didnt, none of us could be executed for lese majeste. We all technically have higher status than they do. (Luna)

Now that I think about it, youre right. But even then, its still rude. I didnt raise you to be rude. (Amagi)

Fair enough. By the way wheres dad? (Luna)

He rode out to greet them before they arrived. Its so tradition from a long ti ago. (Amagi)

Got it. By the way, once this is over, can you have Ana prepare a room close to Ophidias for Skadi? (Luna)

Sure thing. (Amagi)

As we were having this quiet conversation, dad rode up to us on a horse.

You actually look like a knight for once. (Luna)

Dont I always look like that? (Deacon)

No.

You agree with her, Amagi!? (Deacon)

I do. Normally, you only partially wear your armor, so it doesnt have the effect you think it does. (Amagi)

But wearing all of this all the ti would be a detrint. Anyway, as you can see, they are almost here. (Deacon)

As dad said this, the carriage that was surrounded by guards on horses and Skadi on foot entered the village. When she saw . Skadi gave a small wave in my direction and I did the sa. I then spoke to her telepathically.

et with us tonight when you are free.

She nodded at my ssage. It was then that the carriage slowed down and the door opened. Then a person stepped out. He was tall and had unkempt gray hair and eyes. Instead of a regular crown that you would expect to see on his head, he had a golden circlet instead. His wolf ears were constantly moving at every sound showing that he was vigilant.

I expected him to give off a regal feeling, but he just seems like a regular person.

{Thats because your common sense when it cos to important people is skewed. You already know several people even more important than so asly king.}

Thats true, but I guess I should at-wait, do I even need to play along? Im an S-rank adventurer as well.

I then started to ask mom and dad.

Hey, because of my S-rank status, will I need to bow in front of him? (Luna)

I dont know. (Amagi)

No clue. (Deacon)

I then looked over to Skadi and asked her the sa thing. Her response was shaking her head, implying that it was not necessary for to bow to the king of my ho country. This whole situation happened in the few seconds it took for the king to get off of the carriage and co to stand in front of us. Dad had already dismounted his horse and he and mom then kneeled in front of the king while I remained standing. The king silently looked at like he was assessing then grinned a bit.

I see. When I heard that there was an S-rank adventurer with the family na of Reed, I figured that it was soone related to Deacon, but to think I would et you so soon. The king then looked ant mom and dad. You may rise.

They did as he said and when they raised their faces, I could see dad had a smirk on his face.

I told you my daughter was special, didnt I, King Lobo? (Deacon)

Hahaha. You did many tis, even back when you hadnt t her yet. (Lobo)

I could see mom holding in a sigh.

Guess there is more to their relationship than I thought.

{Guess so. Im actually surprised your father never told you about his relationship with the king.}

You know how he is, always with the training. He probably forgot that he never told .

{Thats true.}

The king then looked over to mom.

And thank you, Amagi, for doing this for my son. (Lobo)

Its not a problem. (Amagi)

The king then looked back at and smiled.

Its nice to et you. I am King Lobo Savanna.

I am Luna Reed, or, as you might have heard, Luna of the Spectral Mists.

Well t. (Lobo)

He held his hand out for a handshake and I shook it. Once that was over, he turned around and went back to the carriage.

Now I must go back to acting like a king. We can talk again later. (Lobo)

He then climbed back into the carriage and it started moving again. Once the kings carriage was further into the village, I spoke my thoughts.

The way that ended make it feel like he owns the place. Is that how kings are supposed to act? (Luna)

This question caused mom to facepalm and dad to chuckle.

What? Doesnt this place technically belong to Tamamo? (Luna)

No. The shrine, belongs to the goddess. The village around the shrine belongs to us as a proxy to the king, so technically, he does own the village. And yes, that is how kings usually act. How did you not notice this when you t Dro? (Amagi)

I dont know. (Luna)

Pfft. Ahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! (Deacon)

*Sigh* The two of you are so alike. (Amagi)

And you love us for it. (Luna)

This made mom smile.

Naturally. (Amagi)

We then made our way back to the shrine.

Chaos Realm:

Atmos: Now that I think about it, Luna really does take after her parents in this life. Why is that?

Mortals change over ti. Just because she has the mories and personality from her past life doesn't an she won't change. She was around them for 15 years and unconsciously picked up so of their personality traits that mixed with what was already there.

Atmos: I see. I guess that's what makes watchin and ssing with mortals so much fun.

I agree. They are so much fun to watch and ss with. Like this one ti, I was bored so I decided to see what was going on down there and watched this one person that interested . He was down on his luck so I intervened a little by giving him an item. After that, a lot of things happened, both good and bad, and eventually he beca the first king of the Celestia Kingdom.

Atmos: Oh, I rember him! He really was exciting to watch, though I was always confused on how he would slip at random tis.

Yeah, that was . I was reading sothing from Luna's previous world where the main character used magic to make things slip and it amused , so I decided to try it out. It was great.

Atmos: Would you please teach that magic? It would be great to add that to my prank repertoire.

I'll teach it to you later.

Atmos: Thanks.
