"Really now?" Kyuusei materialized out of nowhere and peered close to the queen's face with a disgusted facial expression. "From what I saw and heard, you MERPEOPLE don't even know how to thank someone, much less ask for help."

Kurogane came as well, separating the nine-tailed fox from the mermaid queen, "Back off, you two. Let's go, Kyuusei." The wolf dragged the rampaging fox away, following their master and the half-god.
