"Clean up the chamber and fill it with the body preserver liquid," Aoi ordered. "I can't wait to imagine Kirari's face when she finds her wife with her heart dug out."

Amanozako laughed along with him. "Indeed."

"Her heart is already starting to give out high levels of Kitsune powers," Aoi marveled. "I'll only absorb them once everything has been given out. Guard the entrace with Level 64 Tanukis. Even if we have not seen the full extent of Kirari's power, those guards will definitely serve as a challenge to her and delay her."

Sayaka opened her eyes to find herself in a dark place, a galaxy in the skies above, filled with stars.

"Ah, you're finally here."

Sayaka turned, eyes widening. "The other me......Kanako......"

Kanako smiled. "I'm glad you made it."

"Kirari----"

"It's alright, I'll preserve your soul here until I've fully awakened. Then, I can bring her and Sachiko here to bring you back, to bring us back."

"Kanako," Sayaka said, touched. "You always act tough but you always protect me."

Kanako waved her away dismissively. "Nonsense, and......I want to be called 'Sayaka' too, sometimes."

"Oh......thank you then, Sayaka," Sayaka said smiling.

Kanako nodded. "I'll send you to the galaxy, you'll be asleep until the time comes."

"Hm."

Kirari eyes started to turn pure black, her claws protracting and her fangs sharpening deadly, a murderous black aura around her.

'Sayaka......how dare you...how dare you take her away from me!'

She unleashed a blast of power, hitting everyone within a few metres around her.

"Rari," Ririka whimpered fearfully.

The Queen had finally shown her true powers.

With a snarl, the Queen blasted herself into the skies, towards the Tanuki Realm. Her wife's death had allowed her to find the place.

No one will be spared.

No one was allowed to lay a finger even on a strand of her wife's hair and get away with it.

The Queen arrived at the entrance. The moment she arrived, all the Tanukis immediately exploded into thin air, her power so great that they couldn't even blink before they were killed.

Aoi's eyes widened with terror as he watched from the inside.

He turned to Amanozako. "Speed up the process----"

He was cut off when Amanozako exploded as well, before Aoi felt an excruciating pain in his heart.

The Queen walked towards him.

Aoi heard multiple voices as she spoke.

"Aoi Mibuomi," the Queen chuckled. "How dare you have the nerve to touch my wife. Don't worry, you won't die as quickly as the others."

Aoi smirked. "From what I've heard, all Kitsune foxes are small in size, compared to Tanukis, I could easily crush you."

"Is that what you think? I'll have you know that I'm an exception."

Aoi gasped in horro as the Queen transformed.

She was gigantic in her animal form, 85 feet tall.
