Seeing that Sky's mind was currently in a chaotic stage, the four tailed fox wanted to ease him. But she did not know how.
Sky was in a utterly desperate state and she did not have an idea that would let them escape from the werewolf. But she still had to console him or Sky might just break down.
She was once a level nine monster and had seem much more of this monster filled world. She must think of a way to calm down Sky, and also a way to escape from the werewolf.
She paced back and front in the first space, thinking. Suddenly her eyes fell on the unconscious body of Artha. She hit her forehead with her palm, feeling she was stupid until now.
[ why did not I think of such a simple solution.]
Why was Sky's mind in a turmoil. The reason was the unconscious Artha. If Artha was fine, then Sky's mind would not be disturbed by the werewolf. Sky was only disturbed because the time to save Artha was limited.
"Sky!" She called out.
"What? Did something happen? Did something happen to Artha?" Sky immediately tensed up.
Seeing Sky in this state, the four tailed fox felt a little sad. He was so sensitive right now, that she could not believe that he was the Sky who slaughtered his way through waves of monsters.
"No Sky! Everything is fine." She replied with a soothing tone.
This reply obviously calmed Sky a lot and he got to the point. "So, what do you want?"
"I have a method to cure Artha." She said and looked towards the WereWolf in the distance. Her eyes were brimming with hostility towards the WereWolf.
"What! You have a method!" Sky almost screamed at his left hand. Fortunately, seeing Sky shout, the werewolf just shook his head.
The WereWolf did not know that Sky possessed a individual space in his left arm. After all, space was a concept of the Gods. Lower level monsters like him did not know about such things.
Even when Sky had absorbed all the foxes into his arm's second space, the WereWolf just thought that Sky performed a sacrifice to a God, to let the foxes disappear. And the sacrifice was Sky's mobility.
He thought, the reason Sky was unable to move was because he sacrificed it to the God to have the God teleport the foxes.
So seeing Sky shout suddenly, he thought that Sky had finally turned crazy due to his methods.
[ Hump! That was easy.]
Sky was the easiest prey he had got his hands on until now. He was able to break Sky's mind in just one day. This made the WereWolf proud.
[ Did my torturing techniques improve. Nah! This human's mind was just too weak.]
He smiled at Sky with disdain.
.....
Seeing that he made a mistake, Sky lowered his voice and spoke again to confirm her words. "You have a method."
"I do, and it is very simple. It's just....." she paused thinking about her next choice of words. If she phrased it wrong, Sky might lose his mind.
"It's just?" As she guessed, Sky started to panic. It's just what? He screamed at her in his mind.
"It's just that the price is very heavy, but rest assured that no harm will be done to the foxes and Artha." She spoke slowly as she chose the right words.
Hearing this, Sky face immediately turned for better. " No matter how hard it is, I will pay any price for Artha. No need to think of price, just tell me."
But the four tailed fox did not tell him the method. "The price is something that you cannot imagine. So we can only use it as our last resort."
Sky's face immediately showed disappointment, but he hid it quickly and smiled. "Are you trying to console me?" He asked, his smile looking extremely sad.
Seeing that smile, the four tailed fox's heart clenched. Sky had always smiled carefreely in the past and this was her first time seeing his smile being this bitter.
"No sky! I am not deceiving you. I really have a method, but please don't ask me about it unless we don't have any other hope." She consoled him. She really did not lie about the method and it's heavy price.
Sky smiled again, but this time it looked a little less sad. Even though he had his doubts, he chose to believe the four tailed fox for now.
...
The next day the werewolf found Sky in a better state than before and was surprised.
[ Did something happen that gave him hope? Well, no matter. I will just smash it again.]
The werewolf once again had some female monsters called up in the afternoon.
Sky closed his eyes but he could not stop the noises from the females. He once again saw the illusion of Artha almost being ravaged by the werewolf and lost his control.
The werewolf just laughed seeing that Sky was giving him death glare as he played the female monsters to their deaths.
.....
At night, the four tailed fox started reassuring Sky about her method once again as Sky kept pestering her about it.
The whole day was torturous to him and he could not think about escaping from the level seven monster.
In order to ease Sky's mind, the four tailed fox started telling Sky how Artha was in her childhood days.
This calmed down Sky as he listened with extreme patience, not wanting to miss a single word.
