No one knows, who first inhabited this world. Some say, the humans were the first. Some say, it were the monster girls. Others say, it were Ilias and her angels. But there is one more legend, one most have forgotten now.

This legend tells of giant, reptilian beings, the smaller ones as big as a house, the greatest among them the size of a mountain. Covered in scales harder than diamonds, breathing fire, claws that could tear metal apart. And with their wings, they were the masters of the sky. Yes, I´m talking about what you´re thinking right now. Those beings were called the Ancient Dragons. Their heritage can still be found today, in the dragon girls, in the dragonkin. But they say, there is one more. A man, seemingly normal, but with the power of the ancients. They say, one day he will rise and reclaim his old place as a legendary warrior. Others think, he will destroy the world we know. The truth is somewhere in between.

I was just a normal human man, living in a small village at the western coast of Sentora. The village was more than small, only two hundred people living there. The special thing, not only humans lived there. It was peaceful place, where humans and monsters could coexist. If you ask me, great thing, because honestly, fuck Ilias and her fucking commandments, she can shove this shit up her rear end. But not everyone liked that fact. A crazy warmonger, believing all monsters should be eradicated, hated this village. He hired an army of mercenary and started a war. We were clearly outnumbered, but we fought for our beliefs.

It was a morning like every other in that week. I pulled my sword and got ready for the attack. All those, that couldn´t fight, the old ones and the children, were hidden in the town hall. We believed them save there, a terrible mistake. The armies clashed, but while we tried to stop them, a small group of our enemies managed to break through and made their way to the town hall. It was a blood bath. They killed the elders and the children without hesitation and attacked our exposed back. We would´ve all died that day, if they didn´t help us. Out of nowhere, hundreds of kitsune decided to join. Wearing full armour, they attacked the mercenaries immediately. I don´t know, where they came from. I buried my sword in the chest of an enemy and turned around, only to see a black arrow. I don´t know who shoot it, I don´t even know if it was aimed at me. But it buried straight into my chest. I looked at it for a second and fell to my knees, before everything went black.

I don´t know what´s going on. I can just see white light, nothing else. Wait, there are voices.

"Why do we need to save him?" "I´ll explain it later. I just have this feeling." What? The hell is going on? "No mere human can survive this. He will die nonetheless." Well, screw you to, third voice. Whoever you are, just screw you. "He´s going to survive, I feel it." The second voice again. Who the hell is this? And what is going on? "How can you be sure, Tamamo?" First voice. And it appears the second voice is called Tamamo, though I have no idea, who this Tamamo-chick is. "He will either die, or be bound. We shall see. Now step back." What is this Tamamo trying? I have a somewhat bad feeling about this. "I ask thee, eternal time..." Bad feeling, bad feeling. This won´t end good for me. "My true body, shackled by the powers of creation, I beseech thee. Return my true body to me!" Whoa, I could feel the power, while almost dead. Now, if someone could tell me, what just fuck just happened, I would be really grateful. Wait someone´s getting closer. "Oh, my poor little human. If I wouldn´t feel this strong power in you, I would just let you die. But this world might need you." Well, forget it, fuck you too, Tamamo. "By my blood, I, Tamamo no Mae, the beautiful golden fur kitsune, bind thee. By my soul, I ask thee, become a guardian of this world. I bind thee upon me, for the realm of death will give thy soul back." Huh? I don´t want to be bind or some shit. Wait, I don´t want to die either. Fuck. Wait something´s touching my lips. Is she putting her finger in my mouth? Why? And why the fuck do I taste blood? "Now, return!" What? Wait, my vision... is going...

I slowly open my eyes. "Fuck, my head hurts like hell." I slowly sit up. "Wait, I can speak again. And see. Fuck yeah, I´m alive." I yell. Looking around, I realize I´m inside of a strange house, sitting on a giant bed. I see a mirror on the opposite wall and slowly make my way towards it, standing up from the bad. "Please, don´t look like a monster, please, still be human." I take a look at the mirror. Phew, still the old guy. 25 years old, 6 foot 5 tall, short orange hair and beard and full of muscles. "I´m still the same. Wait, why the fuck am I naked?" I say, only now realizing it. "Oh, I see you´re awake." I quickly cover my manly parts with my hands, before turning around. Only a few steps behind me is a blond kitsune, with one, two... NINE TAILS? But she´s so damn young? Is that normal? "I didn´t know, a girl was present. I would´ve dressed for the occasion," I try a joke. She let´s out a small laugh. "You didn´t really had the chance. Do you know, who I am?" I shake my head. "Honestly, I have no fucking idea." She looks disappointed for a second, but immediately cheers back up. "Well, I guess it´s just normal you can´t remember. I´m Tamamo." "You´re the chick that saved me," I burst out. She laughs. Kinda cute, this girl. "That´s right, I bound you and brought you back from the dead." I nod. "Well, what do you mean, bound?" "For now, you´re my servant." I look shocked for a second. "Well, I guess, I should find my clothes and start making tea, or something, if that´s the case." I´m about to leave, when she speaks back up. "No need for that. Resurrecting you, made me hungry. Right now, I could use a snack," she says, while licking her lips. It takes me a second to understand the meaning. With a small sigh I whisper to myself "Well, fuck my life. This will be taking forever."
