After everyone fixed the huge mess Koto did, they turned their attentions back to Fuyuhana. She felt embarrassed with all that attention so she simply stared at the floor and started thinking. "Eh? What's wrong, Yuyun~?" Koto asked, looking worried at the girl, who seemed to snap out of her deep thoughts. "You all seem very kind and gentle…" her mom smiled at this and Myoue looked at the other direction, in a childish manner "I am truly glad I am part of this family yet I still have some questions… I do not wish to be rude but can you, please, answer some of my questions before we decide how our future together will be like?" she pleaded looking at everyone. At last, her eyes rested on Inari, who seemed annoyed yet she did not know why. "You all made a fuss over her and didn't tell her anything?" he stated "It's not like you made a better job." Myoue said, a sarcastic tone in his voice.
"That's alright. As long as I get my answers, there's no need to fight." Fuyuhana said a worried look in her face. "Well, I guess this is my takeaway. Everyone, can you give us a moment or two, please?" her mom said, as refined and polite as ever. Without hesitation, everybody left the room and Koto took a glance over her shoulder to look at Fuyuhana and smiled.
One they were alone, Fuyuhana opened her mouth to ask but her mom held up a hand as if to say that she was going to explain everything "Let me finish and once I do so, you can ask anything. Is that fine for you?" she requested, a kind smile lifting up her features. Fuyuhana simply nodded and smiled as well. "Inari is a god whose work was create life. Once he finished his work, he got troubled and decided he did not want to live anymore. Once he is immortal, that is quite a difficult achievement." Fuyuhana listened carefully and did not take her eyes away from her mother as she continued the explanation "Koto and Myoue then bargained with his father-you may call him grampa-to let Inari live, once grampa considered ending his existence, and he, the god of creation, decided to take Inari's powers away and give them to both Koto and Myoue. As expected, Koto refused them and so he decided to create another god. His daughter. This god would replace Inari's role and would become the life goddess. And he after creating her, he decided it would be better for her to live here, with us. That goddess is you, Fuyuhana." her mom looked serious and concerned. A little bit shocked, Fuyuhana widened her eyes and stayed like that for a while.
Standing up, her mom opened a drawer and took a large mirror from within it. Coming closer, she showed Fuyuhana something else. The girl already received a lot to think of from today and lady Koto wanted to give her something else to think of so she could relax a bit. Fuyuhana looked at her own image and was not surprised to see a slim girl with average height, deep purple eyes, long, silver colored hair that reached her knees and that was wearing a flowered pattern kimono. "So… things are like this?" Fuyuhana mumbled. "We will give you some time to think. But, for now, please rest. You had a long and rough day." her mom gave her a hug and left the room as well.
Looking at the door, Fuyuhana found a small futon lying there. She stood up, walked over to it, the signs of the earlier destruction now gone, and prepared the futon. 'How do I know what a god is…? And why do I also know how to prepare a futon? It came so naturally… like breathing.' she wondered. Soon, under the warm covers that protected her from the piercing winter air, her eyelids begun to fell heavy and the warmth of the futon made her feel sleepy.
Upon seeing her sleeping form, everyone-they were behind the shojis because of their worry that she would turn mad or something due to the load of information she received-left their hideout to look out for her. "Who will teach her how to use her powers?" A asked, poking his nose. Everyone turned to Inari, who sighed upon seeing their exited expressions, with the exception of Kurama. "Let's decide tomorrow, although we all seem to have an answer." he ended the matter.
