The Forgotten Temple IX

The Forgotten Temple IX

He was even scared of himself bullying everyone at the altar? Albeit he didn't show it after the short battle with the priestess?

Killing Dragons who don't talk or have humanoid forms is easier than killing someone who did? And even then he felt awful!

But simply had to toss it aside to survive? Causing him after adorably kissing both Selphie's cheek and the still sleeping Lady Void's to then adorably get dressed and back into the same armor he had worn previously?

Causing him to then adorably nod before then noticing the armor itself was scratched and remnants of blood could still be seen causing him to then adorably wipe it off with cleaner he found for the starlight silver fixtures for emergency cases?

Causing him to then adorably wipe off everything resulting in it appearing how it was before?

Albeit the deeper scratches themselves still remained causing the young prince having liked them to then adorably nod once more before then leaving the room and going to the baths!

After walking down the hall for some time he was soon greeted by Yunari heading into the same direction.

"To think you'd be up so early too? Did you have a nightmare or was Lady Void the nightmare? Or perhaps you're like me hoping to take advantage of those blissful baths while they're still empty?"

"Who knows when Lady Sephy would make even more of our puppets Elves! Best take this opportunity while we can?"

Yunari playfully joked causing the young prince to then happily nod especially since there's a higher chance of a puppet randomly walking into the treasury and Lady Sephy to then turn said puppet into an Elf at every curious glance!

Causing both to then laugh at the thought as if brothers! At least until they finally enter the baths and the young prince deciding to join Yunari since he was still very much scared of meeting that Priestess he had spared!

Resulting in Yunari using a separate changing room in case the young prince was embarrassed for any number of reasons?

From his memories from the original Yunari his little sisters despite him treating them just were far to embarrassed to change and bath with him in the celestial baths?

In truth, he simply thought it was adorable and respected their decisions? While later such baths became rare?

He never truly understood why since despite being considered a playboy by a select few other he had never truly had cared due to them being his little sisters?

Albeit he did miss the bonding resulting in him wanting to show the young prince if he wanted to do just that it was fine! Perhaps if he had asked his sisters why and looked from their point of view it would've helped?

Causing the young prince after getting unchanged and getting into a two-piece golden bathing suit of several he had been gifted by Celes for his birthday since he hadn't actually worn one in water before and wondered how it felt?

And funnily enough, Yunari had wore what looked to be Elven white trunks causing both then laugh after noticing this fact!

And causing Yunari having finally relaxed to then enjoy the water while the young prince adorably shampooed his hair to then helplessly nod.

"Please don't take this to heart but.. are you truly a boy? My apologies! You remind me of one of my little sisters and couldn't leave such a thought in my mind!"

Yunari respectfully asked having wanted to ask him in the most respectful way possible! He was Lady Selphine's and if him being a boy was true then he was The First Prince of the Elves!

Despite fighting together who truly would know if he or she would take offense?

Causing the young prince to then adorably nod before then writing down all his titles and full and complete name with an empty inscription scroll he had taken out of his space ring before then adorably handing it to Yunari and to then continue adorably washing his hair.

Causing Yunari to then curiously nod before then reading just that? Surprising him to no end.

"Celestial Prince, The First Prince of The Elves, Dark Elves, and perhaps Elves in general? As for the holy titles? I don't believe I've ever seen so many before!"

"The First Holy Prince of The Temple of Selphine, Holy Prince of The Golden Temples and Golden Banks of Aurora, and wait-your both The Celestial Holy Emperor and Holy Consort of Lady Celestia?! I wonder what in Divinus happened for that to happen?"

"No offense intended! Then there's Imperial Princess Aurea Serpa and something about a 'Unique' Ophidian Ancestral Inheritance-"

Yunari surprisingly confessed having essentially been blindsided by so many! Before then immediately being cut off by Aurea.

"Aurel is a boy, and I'm a girl, accidents happen and Ancestral Ophidian Inheritances created by mother Klarine happen? I'm fourteen and he's eight so I suppose I shouldn't 'need' to explain why I've only showed up only twice throughout these antics?"

"As for what I wanted to add.. change your name to Vulpes since Vulpes Yunari Inari Vale Imperial Prince of The Celestial Empire and Prince of Vulpes sounds enough to differentiate from the 'original' you? You're welcome!"

Unauthorized use: this story is on Amazon without permission from the author. Report any sightings.

Aurea added before then quickly switching back to Aurel causing him to then helplessly smile causing Vulpes having simply accepted that since in truth it had indeed bothered him to keep the same name knowing there was another Yunari?

And since The Kingdom of Vulpes no longer exists he might as well? Causing him after some thought to reaffirm it once more.

"Aurea is truly impressive? As for the name itself I'd be happy to be named after my mother's home even if it goes by another name today?"

"Just like The Kingdom of Vulpes it appears I should follow its example and change mine as well? Thinking of which, what are your plans? You looked like you were on a mission earlier?"

Vulpes playfully asked causing the young prince to then adorably nod.

"Aurel needs to clear Secret Blight Ward? Ward isn't Selphie's Temple so for Aurel to be like Mommy and Noel Aurel will needs to clear!"

"Bu-But Aurel learned lesson so Aurel will find better solutions? I-I don't want to be the bully again.. Aurel's a good boy!"

The young prince worriedly confessed? Albeit he tried his best to talk like he normally would have with the bare minimum of stuttering and since he had only done so twice he was fairly happy in himself!

Surprising Vulpes having noticed how proud the young prince was at this fact fairly quickly causing him to then proudly pat his head before then remembering The Blight Ward bit?

Surprising him even more having actually visited there at the beginning of it all.

Causing him to then curiously pause before then happily nodding.

"That place is.. let's just say even when I was a strange fusion spiritual puppet fusion creeped me out and equally terrified me!"

"Thankfully the numbness of being a puppet helped greatly but what was there didn't clearly belong 'in' or 'near' a temple even if they had seamlessly managed to copy the temple's architecture perhaps to make it look less unsuspecting?"

"Which to any ordinary person would seem as such but when you feel the chaotic magic, terrifying aura and begin to see what you're walking into it'll be far too late! A real man can feel fear and simply not show it! It's all about the 'appearance' of fearlessness!"

Vulpes honestly explained before then diving back into the explanation.

"Unless you're a numb battle-hardened monster or perhaps an Empress such as that of Klarine, Kassandra, and maybe even Empress Emilia of The Elfin Empire you'd feel the same fear!"

"Of course, there are exceptions like battle maniacs and so forth?"

Vulpes honestly explained further surprising the young prince having learned to do just that recently before then adorably pausing at The Elfin Empire bit? Was mommy Emilia an Empress?!

Or did they only share the same name like Celestial Queen Luna and The Dark Elf Luna?

She is The Lord Commander of The Elfin Guard after all? Thinking of which he missed his mommy, Emilia! Mommy Emilia was just different from his other mommies! So of course he loved her!

Causing him to then quickly remember The Blight Ward before then curiously rinsing off his hair and Vulpes to then helplessly nod.

"I have no real plans as of now so I'll be joining you if you'd allow it?"

Vulpes playfully added causing the young prince to then curiously nod.

"Aurel wants to focus on swordsmanship? So no magic an-and only help if Aurel can't beat bullies!"

The young prince adorably explained causing Vulpes to then nod once more.

"Understood! I highly doubt that place would be the same as we left it along with everything that had already happened? So I'd suggest asking Lady Vina herself? In all fairness information gathering from ungodly sources isn't at all cheating! It's just practical!"

"Thinking of which I used to communicate with a Demoness who was located in The Sealed End of The Endless Abyss?"

"Forgot what kind or what her status entailed? Something about being an Overlord of some kind? In any case, I used to always do the ritual and connected to my old magepad!"

Vulpes curiously added.

"Unfortunately there was only Magebook but I still managed somehow? She even offered to give me a body if I were to ever visit the Endless Abyss! I miss her! Apologies! I might have gone a 'little' off topic?"

"The lesson being you can contract Sealed Demons and even at rare times summon them and use them for information gathering! I'll teach you the specifics later if you'd like?"

Vulpes curiously explained even further surprising the young prince causing him to then excitedly nod especially after learning you could talk to sealed demons! Along with the concept of information gathering!

After the bath and getting dressed once more both had soon arrived to The Infirmary surprising Lady Austine.

Before then gently nodding causing Lady Vina to then excitedly smile and throw her book to the foot of the bed to accept such hugs from her little sister.

"So cute! But why isn't little sister asleep? Did my little sister have a nightmare?!"

Vina worriedly asked causing the young prince to then adorably shake his head before then trying his best to remember the time since everyone had already asked the same?

Resulting in Vulpes showing him his pocket watch surprising the young prince having realized it was three at night! Causing him to then adorably pause before then helplessly smiling.

"I-I couldn't sleep? I'm sorry big sister! But Aurel needs to clear Blight Ward to continue training! Could big sister help with info-Information gathering?"

The young prince guilty asked having realized he was the bully bothering everyone at night causing Lady Vina to then adorably giggle and hug her little sister even tighter despite the pain.

"So cute! Of course, I'll tell my little sister! I only told the little sister about my cacoons but what I might have 'forgotten' to mention was that big sister 'might' have attempted to replicate Blight Queens and myself!"

"So it's overrun with blight-infused husks! If they're outside of their cocoons then they're failures! Except for everyone you see now?"

"After creating the Priestesses I left the projects as they were! Not all of them were successful and those who were weren't supposed to leave their cocoons and remain asleep until I woke them up! Which big sister hadn't so those bullies are rebelling!"

Vina adorably clarified.

"They won't attack me or my other children but they will if my little sister went down there? From what I feel now only Seven Low-Level Legendary Realms and one one thousand husks, and other failed projects are scattered in there!"

"Thankfully it's so few since I had thousands of cocoons sleeping! And since they haven't bothered them, big sister had simply ignored them! But that's all big sister can say at the moment? Big sister is in no real condition to travel!"

"Oh and little sister must know that not all of them will attack little sister so you can talk some while those who attack on sight are extra failures!"

Vina adorably explained in depth as both an example of information gathering and simply information? Causing the young prince to then adorably nod and Vulpes to then freeze! She did WHAT?!

Blight Queens are already expressly forbidden and attempting to create one is already the highest known crime but 'also' attempting to replicate herself and The Queen of Senex?!

That was simply global war crimes bent on genocide just waiting to happen causing him to then helplessly calm down and Vina to then adorably giggle.

"I'll send my little sister with another little sister! Little sister might know her!"

Vina adorably added surprising both and causing Vulpes to then sweat having seen who it was and the young prince to then guiltily become teary before then hiding under Vina's blanket!
