章 50: Book Two: Chapter Nineteen: Aoi's Secrets Part 2/Megumi's Promise Part 1

Aren't you cocky? Lilith asked. I'd rather be cocky than spineless. Aoi replied. I wonder why he chose you out of all beings? Lilith asked. The soul of a man or woman who has felt like they have lost everything wielded his power. In return for giving them the means of revenge or vengeance. Aoi replied. You are the first to comprehend his power. I commend you for doing your research. Lilith replied. I am tired of you looking down on me. Aoi replied. You know you need to stop looking down on him, my queen. Asmodeus replied. He comes from the royal Luxurian Family of the original Luxurians. Asmodeus replied. So he shares her abilities? Lilith asked. Can I ask you a question? Aoi asked. What would you like to ask of me? Lilith asked. Why is Kuroyuri after me? Aoi asked. Well, the raw destructive power you possess. My husband's power is like a boost. Lilith replied. I looked through the crack of the door and saw Lilith. She is so beautiful. Young lady, I have sensed you are eavesdropping. Lilith replied. As soon as she said that, I appeared before her. Your child, are you related to my old friend, Hajime? Lilith asked. I've never heard of her. I replied. Don't worry. The child she left behind must be an adult now or a grandmother. Lilith replied. Wait, you mean the fox that was cursed to have a child with a human as her punishment? You are right; she is alive and among the living. Aoi replied. Do you know that child? I asked. I mean, she has been here this whole time, masking her presence. Aoi replied. I saw a woman come out of a rift. It has been a while, Lady Lilith. Megumi replied. Mom, I never saw you with white ears, hair, and a tail before. I replied. Well, a certain festival is about to play out, and let's say a certain succubus queen knows something. Megumi replied. Why aren't you sneaky like your mom? Lilith replied. Your saying that because I look just like her when she ensnared my dad thirty-nine years ago on this night. Megumi replied. Mom, what are you talking about? I asked. Your mom is the daughter of an infamous fox who would seduce men by transforming into her human form. They say she grew fond of a man, but he was the son of the village priest. Aoi replied. Mom? I asked. Well, Miki, you have come for that promise. Lilith asked.
