Feferi gave a nod, smiling as she pulled her blade from the sand and pushed herself to her feet, "Very well, Roxanne, though to point out, I don't expect to win in all honesty, Rose spoke a great deal about your power, I simply wished to see if what she said was true... As well as to face you as an equal." she stated. Turning on her heel, she moved to the other end of the arena once more, before adjusting her stance, a hand placed behind her back, the other, her left hand, on the sword which she brought to the front of her, her eyes closing as she tried to remember how to wield this thing again...

The first strike was simple, but fast, almost impossibly so, but it was not a sword strike, but rather Feferi disappeared, appearing beside Roxy and swinging her leg around in an arch down on Roxy, followed by two quick stabs at the small body and finishing with a donkey kick before jumping back and into the same place she started, panting heavily and already under strain, but less so about the attacks she performed, more about the equipment she used.

And Roxanne stood still despite it all, head unbowed, her skin barely even broken, only her clothes hampered, "I liked this dress too..." She shook her head as she slowly and tiredly walked to Feferi, "Did you want me treating you as a true equal? To take this seriously? Or should I be going easy?" Her attendants have gone stock still terror hitting them.

She looked Feferi over, tossing aside her now ripped clothes, "So what'll it be Feferi? Want a child to beat you? Or an adult? I can choose you know. Someone had to teach your pet that sealing spell." Her eyes are inquisitive, now she's curious, will Fef take the easy loss, or the devestating loss? It was her choice and she should be glad she had it.

Feferi took a deep breath before smirking as she straightened her back, "Equals, Queen Roxanne... Your hardest, deliver it and I will take it." she replied before moving forwards slowly this time, the sword moving slow enough now for a green glow to be seen coming off it, while Feferi herself was seeming to slow down, as if her body was shifting her strengths around, this time, into strength. A thrust followed, quickly speeded up from the slowness that Feferi had while walking, and another before a punch would be delivered to the girl's chest, a yell coming from Feferi as she held her hand there, pressing her fist harder and harder before a flame of orange could be seen on her hand, only for her to leap back twice, panting once again as she held held her hand in front of her, pausing for a moment to take a deep breath. "Everyone, I want you to hear me, as while I might lose, this should not send you into a panic. I chose this because I want us to have powerful allies, I want them to see that while I am but a human, I am capable of as much as them, I do this so we can have a future." she insisted before she gripped her rapier with both hands, the blade turning white this time... Only for Feferi to suddenly be on the other side of the arena, panting heavily with a flash going from where she was before, through Roxanne out the other side. Righting herself, the baroness turned, walked to the center of the Arena and kneeled down, her sword being sheathed as she lifted the visor of the helmet. "There is my best, Roxanne, three years of my life were eaten by that attack..." she panted, "Now your's."

🌀
She shook her head and sighed, barely singed, "You silly little girl." She sighed lightly, "Well you asked for this. Just remember that." She stepped back, "I ask thee eternal time, my body shackled by the powers of creation, I beseech thee. Return my true body to me!" Light engulfed the arena in a heartbeat, Tamamo's body grown, DD cup breasts, standing at 5'9" rather than her previous diminutive, 4'6" Her legs long and slender, she had no cock, at present at least the power radiating off her body makes it evident if she wanted one, she could have it. "Pray you survive this little girl." She opens her fan a light spark fills the air before building into an ungodly inferno, the ninetails funeral pyre had been lit, set to roast and burn all before it into ash and nothingness. Roxanne's attendants both exchanged nervous glances, perhaps Feferi shouldn't have said best. The heat had already begun to melt some of the closer stone.

2015-03-03 10:44:34

Feferi simply sat there, in the middle of the inferno, she felt the blaze, she knew it was there and she watched as it turned the sand below them into molten glass, and while she sank into it, she did not scream, she didn't even feel any pain, instead, she just sat there, her hands on her knees as she accepted the worst that could be given, staying in the traditional eastern kneeling stance. The key to it all was the armour and it's key, the blade, an impressive little thing, it took the soul of the person who drew it from its scabbard and through it, they could control the body like a puppet, all it took was flexibility from the user's look at life... The whole key to it was that the blade was sheathed, which shielded Feferi for as long as she kept it sheathed, but despite it all, the body would still come out burned and scarred, there was no stopping that, but through it all, Feferi kneeled, taking the punishment to prove herself.

2015-03-03 10:50:44
🌀
And Roxanne sighed, reverting to normal, "It's pretty clear who won, go see my attendants about fixing you up. I have a festival to enjoy!" And off Tamamo pranced her attendants giving hushed apologies as they began to transfer energy to Feferi to both heal her woubds, and make up for her earlier recklessness. The people in the arena utterly terrified by what transpired, a sweet little kid had become a god and burned the arena and sand to glass, the walls from the stands melted. And Roxanne just pranced off not a care in the world, Rose wasn't lying about the moodswings at all.

2015-03-03 10:55:53

Feferi pushed herself to her feet before stepping up and out of the now cooling glass floor, waving off the attendants with a smile as she removed the helmet from her head, her hair scrorched, with only a small amount of her pony tail left. "I'm fine, I am but a bit charred." she explained, only to pause and remove her right gauntlet, wincing as she saw the worse wound by far, her entire hand alive with embers, smiling awkwardly to the attendants before thanking them when they healed it. Walking from the Arena, she took a deep breath before laughing as she heard the cheering for the adorable little Kitsune, but instead of joining the festival, she moved off, heading towards the plains, where a hill stood that over looked the entire small town, allowing a perfect view of it all.

2015-03-03 10:59:42
🌀
The attendants their job done, go back to taking care of Roxanne, a fluttering of wings is heard as Porrim sits next to her, "WAS THAT THE GOLDEN KITSUNE? THE ONE THE FIRST MONSTER LORD MADE?!" Seems someone's flabbergasted, "She's supposed to be sealed! How is..." She pauses, "mother of Rose Lalonde..." Seems she caught on, that was an unintended risk. Porrim just sits down, "You meet some strange people Feferi, be glad most of them are kind." She sighs and shakes her head. "You think you know a lamia..." She sighs, "Still no sign of her, if she's gone North she's probably at the castle by now. Can't imagine why she's there." She lays back, "Still hurt? Or did you want to work out stress on your new wife?" She gave a grin, trying to cheer Feferi up.

2015-03-03 11:08:35
●
Feferi gave a shake of the head, "Not a word, Porrim or I will kill you... You've seen the power I can wield, and though my offense is not as powerful as that of the Golden Kistune, my defense is enough for me to take you on and live." she growled, "Rose made me promise."

A sigh came from her lips as the other questions came up, "I'm... Fine, a bit hurt, but fine, as for new wife... I doubt it, she wasn't impressed with me at all, I could tell." she muttered. "As for the stress... No, it's still there, I need Rose back now... I need the succubi and their forces at my back... Word from the Capital says my mother's growing restless, the Dark Scar's been reported to have reignited, embers flow upon the winds out of it." she stated, it being both metaphorical and literal, as the forges of the city were placed high, allowing the embers to escape into the sky, a sign of horrible things to come. "... I came out here hoping that she would have felt Roxanne's seal break, even if it was for a moment..." she muttered, having pieced together that it was roughly the same way that Roxanne found Rose after Rose broke her seal.

2015-03-03 11:15:32
🌀
She sighed standing up, "Well if it helps, I have two lovely little stress balls that belong to you, do as you like with them no matter how rough." She takes slow breaths, "Even if you want to outright crush them. They're your toys after all." She gulped, ready for the worst. "As for your mother I doubt she could stand up to Rose if you're being honest. She'd easily outproduce soldiers, monstrous loyal... It'd be a bloodbath." She gulped, expecting the punishment any minute, she got off scot-free for mind control, but mind control and blabbing her mouth, and offering them? Well it was highly unlikely she'd be walking right after this. She took a deep breath, "It's your call, they're yours after all."

2015-03-03 11:22:48
●
"No, they're yours." she simply stated as she drew the blade of her rapier from the scabbard. "I personally am not in a stable place at the moment... Rose can't do that any longer... She gave those rights away, or something along those lines, the point is, she's no longer who you think she is." she stated, speaking of waht she knew, rather than what she assumed. "She gave that up for a reason, and there's no way she would take that up again... I think she's watching things unfold currently, she has the power to, even in her sealed form... Most likely she knows I almost spilled it to you when we were counting the pay for the humans... My point is that she's most likely going to check on someone." she finished with a sigh, looking at the strange blade.

"Do you know of the demon contracts?" she asked, turning to look at the queen before shaking her head, "I doubt it, they were forbidden from even humans talking about them years ago... back, way back, at the start of the City we're going to wage war against, this continent was split into three sides, well, four really, there was a single city in the middle that was an independent trade city... There was a large war between the three larger territories, they used a forbidden weapon too, a demon contract... I won't go into specifics for the sake of the monsters not finding out how to find the demon contract, lest they have one too, but word has it, if one feels an extreme hatred towards god when they enstate their contract, they don't transform into a monster as most do, but rather, they turn into a demon weapon..." She finished, holding the blade in her hand with a smirk on her lips, "Legend has it, this is an ancestor of mine..."

2015-03-03 11:43:31
🌀
And out came a slithering, "Interestin confession. If you must know I checked my estate." And there was Rose, "Disappointed but not surprised. I had a lovely visit with my descendant. She called me a usurper so I bitch slapped her out the window. Had to check my old records." She sighed, "And get away from Roxanne. Who I take it you," She looked at Feferi, "Suicidally fought and egged on to her true form?" She rubs her temples, "What am I going to do with you? I leave for a week and you throw yourself at a demigod." She patted Feferi's head, "Just had to be sure of something. Nothing important."

2015-03-03 11:50:51
●
"I want to prove myself." she stated, not saying anything more, instead she sheathed the blade again, the green and red metal hissing as it slide back into place. "So, I did my best to do so, Demigod aside." She state. "And only one knows it, not much else to say." she explained, the stress of the last week having forced Feferi to reconsider several ideas. "Rose, kindly punch the queen in the testicles, she was the one that eavesdropped on a conversation that I had quietly with the queen after all." she stated, smirking to herself as she gave the command.

"But that aside, Rose, I need you to go to the succubus Queen and send a message informing that I offer her people land in exchange for protection as long as they serve under me as the Alruane queen and the Harpy queen have done so... We need the soldiers, and I don't want you to be forced into anything."

2015-03-03 11:55:55
🌀
She snorted, her fist sinking into Porrim's balls, she crumples in pain, "Your mother has bigger problems than us. As do we. I wanted to check in on Black Rose's remains, but something about them boggled my mind." She mused slightly, rubbing under her chin. "That there were none. I know Heinrich was supposed to have obliterated her, but there should have been a corpse." She sighed, "I have a sneaking suspicion that we might be meeting her." She looks over at Feferi, "Only good monster is a dead monster according to your god, but the next best thing is one human's would despise." She sighs, "We may well have written off Rosalin IV too soon. Which is why the succubus queen is busy checking on the loyalties of other monsters."

2015-03-03 12:03:20
●
She gave a slow nod as she considered it before looking back at Rose with a raised eyebrow, "You suspect the Black Scar is where she's hiding I take it? Or perhaps something a little more heavy handed? Perhaps she's the admiral who is controlling my mother?" She asked, only to pat the spot next to her on the ground, adjusting the helmet that was there originally, instead, placing it to her other side as she looked at the festival, smiling as she saw a glimpse of the Demigod herself playing with several children.

2015-03-03 12:06:41
🌀
She sat down, "That depends, what does the admiral look like? Female or male?" She cleared her throat, "And I think your god hasn't had enough monster genocide, and brought my dead descendant to fight for her. They likely both have a double cross planned. Which means that the trump card goes to the actual god." She shook her head with a saddened sigh. "Essentially? We're looking at potential world wide devestation. I might just have to get back in business at this rate." She laid back, "I can probably fix my mistake and kill her this time. Won't be peace while she breathes. Traitors suspected are being brought here."

2015-03-03 12:13:43
●
She raised an eyebrow as she heard it, picking up the helmet once more and slotting it onto Rose's head instead. "Let me lead, Rose, you retired from that live, remember?" she pointed out before pressing a hand to her scabbard. "... Even if I have to kill myself while using this, I refuse to allow you to be involved." she muttered before taking a deep breath, "The admiral looked masculine, but illusion magic could be a possibility if she's as strong as you seem to think." she pointed out, "And PLEASE stop calling her 'my god' because I don't worship her, I know that they exist, but they hate monsters, I see no reason to, thus a disagreement is formed." she pointed out, before sighing, only to roll over and hug the girl without a word, letting her actions tell Rose how much she missed her.

2015-03-03 12:17:57
🌀
She laid back sighing as she ruffled Feferi's hair, "If a god's involved they both ought to be. If someone is going to kill her, it has to be me, we came to be together. She ought to see the one she saw when she awoke for the first time when she sleeps for the last." She yawns, "Regardless she probably doesn't think I'm around anymore." She chuckles, "Roxanne will stick around things got interesting here." She hrms, "If they're preparing weapons they're probably drawing attention away from something they're up to." She then smacks the back of Feferi's head, "No killing yourself using your weaponized ancestors either. if we're fighting a deranged god, Roxanne knows deserters from her last campaign."

2015-03-03 12:25:51
●
Feferi didn't even wince from the hit to the head, instead, she just placed her hand her hand on the handle, "I'm a human, Rose, I can't promise anything... Besides, if you end up needing a weapon, wouldn't you want one that fits to your nature...?" She pointed out, trying to imply what she really meant. "Hatred towards a god can be a strong thing, as can love... I'm curious to see how things go myself." She admitted, but didn't say anything more, instead, she pushed herself to her feet with a groan, her knees aching. "... I need an army, Rose, and I can't wait eight years for one, in a year, my mother will be marching across the land and at my doorstep, I don't want you fighting a battle against humans... No, this is a fight for mortals, mortals that I want to lead into battle." she stated strongly.

2015-03-03 12:33:27
🌀
She sighed, "Fine fine. Just expect other monsters upon your doorstep. Their betrayal real or imagined, will have to be made up for." She patted Feferi's head lightly, "I'll see if Roxanne can convince some heavenly deserters to take up arms. If a war between gods is coming, we'll need them." She mused, "As for your mother's army? There's little need to worry. Roxanne and Porrim are here, more than enough to rip a battlefield asunder." She finally sat up, "I suggest you enjoy your next year, an army will be amassed, I have my suspicions about who might have betrayed monster kind." She stretched out cracking her neck, "Expect royalty to be dragged in for a while."

2015-03-03 20:21:28
●
She gave a nod slowly before sighing, "I suppose I should look into getting a blade different to this one, lest I be left with nothing else..." The girl looked defeated, as despite the fact that she had just gotten her main trick back... She was still unable to do anything but kick and scream in comparison to most of the rulers... "I'm fucking weak, Rose... I need someway to be stronger for my people..." she muttered before raising an eyebrow, "And in case you forgot, royalty is already been dragged in." She pointed out, gesturing to the poor harpy that was cradling her nuts. "As well as your mother and the Queen Dolorosa."

2015-03-04 07:53:45
🌀
She looked over, eyes half closed, "Well I suspect the mermaid queen, fairy queen, and elf queen." She shook her head, "500 years ago the Western desert kingdom used to be forest land owned by the fairies and elves, humans came in deforested." She sighed lightly, "You see, it lead to desertification, and well, they're still pissed about it." She sighed lightly, "Which is probably why the king's daughter has gone missing." She shook her head, "If they're going poetically, they'll turn her into a monser, which will SPECTACULARLY BACKFIRE, because on a one in a million chance, the king's ancestor slept with a sphinx. And produced a boy. Short version? They try it, she likely turns into a queen class or higher monsyer, and completely and utterly destroys them." She clears her throat, "And the mermaid queen is jaded because of discrimination after she saved a sailor, had a kid with him then watched him die later without anyone helping." She sighs, "Did I ever tell you omniscience is a pain in the ass? If monsters are involved, I know about it."

2015-03-04 08:06:07

"You never mentioned it in all honesty, though I take it it's a hive-mind effect to a degree...? And if that's the case, can't you just find out who the betrayer will be since that's related to demons?" she pointed out before shaking her head and just flopping onto her back, a groan coming to her lips. "You didn't answer my question though about becoming stronger... As no matter how many allies I gather, no matter how strong they are, an alliance is only as strong as the main link, which currently is me... I'm stressing over only a few, and yet, I need more, I need more everything and I just can't get it." She pointed out, wanting to know just how the fuck she was going to survive all this...

2015-03-04 08:12:34
🌀
She sighed lightly, "Right I'll train you eventually. As for the traitor thing? I have a bit of a blind spot for my family, they borrow my power which makes them incredibly difficult to follow. If they get close enough, it blanks out others, plus you want to try keeping track of thousands of lifeforms at once? I tend to tune it out." She yawns, "Other than that those are the ones I know have grudges. You can have fun with Roxanne I'm going to be busy trying rebels and putting them to work under threat of death or mutilation. A monster lord's work is never really done." She ponders for a moment, "I could also see about getting the elementals to work for you." She stretches out once more. "Talk to Roxanne about the spirits locations. Sylph Salamander Undine and Gnome. By Undine I mean the first one not the newer ones. Each one controls their respective element, wind, earth, fire, water."

2015-03-04 08:26:55

She sighed, rolling her eyes as she heard the girl telling her what to do, "Yes, yes, I know, the creatures that infused the hero's of the mana sword with their magical power." she muttered, rather annoyed she was being lectured on something she actually knew, "And you shouldn't avoid your mother, Rose, while she does tease, she cares for you." she pointed out before pushing herself to her feet, starting down the hill with a lazy wave, "Feel free to play with my wife, Rose, and return the helmet to my office before you head out." She yelled back, intending to head into the town to enjoy the festival a bit, she needed the cheering up, and she also knew her people needed to see her after her defeat in the arena...
