Intimate talk

Finally, the war for the Holy Grail began, all the masters had already called on their servants and began to prepare for the upcoming battles, I was no exception, but before that I wanted to introduce the fox girl to all the inhabitants of my house. Since my parents now live permanently in Germany, leaving Thea and me alone, while saying "You are already an adult, so you will definitely be able to take care of yourself." at the same time, my relatively small age did not bother them. Oh what carefree parents?

Well, I went a little wrong.

Having risen together with Tamamo into a more spacious bright room, we are met by two girls sitting on the sofa. A beautiful white-haired girl of about 18 years old in a maid uniform and a little black-haired girl of about 6 years old were having fun until they turned their attention to two people walking in their direction. The first one was well known to them - the dark-haired young man is the owner of this house, their friend, hero, as well as the one who can be considered more than a friend and master. Behind him was another man - kopeck piece. But can you call her human? All that distinguished her from people was her wagging fox tail and fox ears.

When they stood in the center of the room, the two who were sitting on the sofa jumped up and approached them.

"Sir, you did it. Congratulations!" - the white-haired girl said sincerely joyfully.

Tamamo's ears twitched slightly when she heard the word 'Master', peeked out from behind her master and looked inquiringly at the girl, and then at her master.

"Congratulations," the girl said sincerely.

"Thank you," the young man said and crouched down so that he was on the same level with the girl and stroked his head in gratitude.

"Ugh uh uh uh" the girl purred like a cat from stroking her head.

"Thea, you can call me by my first name." asked her master.

"Alright Itsuki" Thea said.

"So since we're all here, I propose to start our acquaintance."

"Firstly, let me introduce your new neighbor, as well as a member of our family (if I may say so), Tamamo-no-Mae, a kitsune that I called to participate in war for the Holy Grail."

"Next, I'd like to introduce Teya. Teya is my personal maid and also.... my mistress," Itsuki introduced cheerfully.

If he was having fun, then the girl next to him wasn't having so much fun. Her ears pressed against her head, and her tail stopped wagging from side to side.

"Itsuki, please don't say such shameful things!" all red shouted Thea while covering her face with her hands.

"Ha ha ha ha ha, sorry, sorry, this was just a joke," the hero says with a loud laugh, addressing two girls at once.

"Ahem.. like I said earlier, Thea is my maid."

"Next, I'd like to introduce you to the last occupant of this house, Sakura. Sakura is umm... you can consider her my little sister," I said to Tamama.

"It's nice to meet you all," Tomama said, regaining her cheerful mood.

"Nice to meet you," the girls said in unison.

"Well, since you all met, how about having dinner?"

"I'm for"

"Why not"

"I don't mind"

After 20 minutes, everyone was already sitting at the table, but dinner took place in complete silence.

'And what am I to do with you? You never say what will happen if I leave you alone? Maybe then you'll talk?' - soared in the head of the young man.

"Eh... thanks for the meal, but I'll have to leave you, I still have things to do today" – Itsuki said and got up from the table and embroidered out of the house. The girls continued to eat. A few minutes later, one hyperactive fox could not stand the oppressive silence .

"Thea, right?"

"Yes"

"Can you tell me what kind of master he is?"

"What kind of person? MMM ... well, you know or not, but he is only 14 years old, however, in his appearance, mind and character, one cannot say so. Since childhood, he has demonstrated his abilities in understanding the world. I don't remember the moments when he could cry "He never lost heart and if something did not work out, he asked for advice, not help in anything. He learned to walk, speak, write and read very quickly. Then he began to demonstrate his knowledge in mathematics, later in history and literature. Having achieved At the age of 10, one could see the absolute boundary between him and a child of his age.Itsuki knows that he is extraordinary , but he is not proud of it.Besides his knowledge, he also has outstanding physical abilities.As he himself said, he wants to participate in the war on the front lines together with his servant, that is, with you. Well, last but not least is that he is ready to help everyone who needs it. Well, probably all that can be said." Thea said.

Tamamo attentively listened to the whole story with her ears pricked up.

"Wow, you've been so detailed about him. Can I ask you one more question then?"

"Ask."

"What relationship do you have with the master?"

"As Itsuki mentioned, I am the maid that his family took to provide for his needs. Gradually, we talked more and more, and also walked around gradually getting to know each other."

"What about another type of relationship?"

"If you ask about love, then it's hard to say, we've known each other for a very long time, so it's hard to say here. If you ask if I like him, then I will answer yes."

Tamamo listened to everything and made mental notes to herself.

"And how is Sakura related to him, if I understand correctly, she is not his sister."

"Her situation is more difficult."

"Itsuki-san saved me." Sakura joined in the conversation.

"Saved?"

"Yes, I did. My ex-family abandoned me, they sold me to another family, and Itsuki-san took me away. At first it was scary and uncomfortable, but he was always there, helped me get comfortable in a new place, told funny stories, played with me and devoted all his time to me. He became my hero, who saved me from loneliness and fear." Sakura concluded.

"...." - Tamamo was sincerely sorry for the girl, so she got up from her seat and hugged her without restraining herself.
