Arius who stopped laughing looked at Himari and put on a serious expression which turned the whole atmosphere depressing.
With a deep sigh Arius decided to get straight to the point and ask her about her little sister who was Rena's mom.
"Himari we need to talk about your little sister..."
He knew once he stepped onto this island he needed her to calm down and deal with the grief like an adult and not go on a rampage.
FUUUUUUUUUSSSSSSSHHHHHHHHH!!!
Himari didn't respond with her words but her mana was bursting out of her whole body causing sand to fly everywhere and water to break apart showing the ocean floor.
Arius merely stood there knowing she wouldn't be able to scratch him.
With a snap of his finger the gravity lifted off her body in an instant.
Being free from the pressure Himari's eyes turned bloodshot red, getting her body into a sprinting position she blasted forward with her nails aiming for Arius's throat.
While she shot forward her mind was in utter chaos.
``How dare a human bring up my little sister's death unforgivable!"
She was truly in a terrible mental state and could only result to violence.
All of that talk earlier and friendly banter disappeared in a second.
Arius looked at Himari coming toward him at a rapid speed, putting his hands behind his back as he waited for her nails to connect with his throat.
SLASH!
Himari slashed her nails across Arius's neck causing it to squirt blood on her clothes.
Ignoring that her clothes were covered in a little blood she looked at Arius and couldn't believe what she saw.
What she saw was Arius standing there peacefully like nothing ever happened to him. The blood from earlier was nowhere to be seen nor his wound on his neck!?
'Impossible!?'
Himari thought to herself expressing disbelief on her face with a small drip of sweat coming down her right cheek, backing up a little she blasted toward Arius this time aiming for his chest.
Again, Arius stood there with a calm expression still with his hands behind his back.
Pierce!
Himari's nails pierced through Arius's stomach like he was a piece of paper.
The spleen was pierced as well causing his whole stomach to drip with blood.
This time Himari didn't back away but instead looked Arius in the eyes thinking she would see pain but what she actually saw was disappointment.
'Why are you disappointed!?'
Himari thought to herself, confused why she asked herself that more rage erupted out of her and she began slashing inside Arius's stomach causing many organs to be destroyed.
The liver, gallbladder, large intestine and the small intestine were ripped apart spilling more blood on the sand.
Arius stood there the whole time without screaming nor speaking; he was like a statue.
Himari again looked at his face and again saw more disappointment.
Tears began to fall down her face as she began slashing away at Arius's body like he was a play dummy who could be roughened up.
Arius's skin was cut open, his arms were ripped off, his two legs were stomped on repeatedly but he still was quiet showing no ounce of pain.
At this point Himari was covered in his blood and her own sweat was wrapped around her body.
She began breathing heavily and went back to slashing him over and over until only a distorted looking Arius was left...
Finally backing away she fell backwards on her butt on the bloody sand and tried to catch her breath.
"Are you done?"
Himari who was breathing looked up and wasn't met with Arius's distorted looking body but was shocked to see his body brand new like no injury ever happened.
Her entire body shot up from the sand, pointing at him she couldn't help but ask.
"How are you alive!?"
Arius laughed a little before calming down and looking at her.
"You see I can't die to a mortal or a demigod I can only die to a god or existence above a god."
He answered the fox empress with a small smile.
Himari was about to speak but suddenly Arius appeared in front of her and hugged her tightly, leaning into her ear he whispered.
"I know you miss your little sister, but would she really like to see you act violent like this?"
Arius's words were a huge realism check for Himari who knew her little sister would be disappointed in her.
Just remembering how she acted in her den palace and just now by hurting Arius made Himari realize she was blinded by grief and she couldn't help but cry like a little girl into Arius's shoulders.
'I-I'm sor-sorry!'
Himari sobbed. Her throat felt swollen and she stuttered as she tried to speak the words in her head.
Even though she has lived for 200 years and experienced many things her heart couldn't help but cry.
Losing her little sister forever made her realize how much regret she has for becoming sick which put her in a deep sleep.
She asked herself if she didn't become sick could she have saved her little sister or would she not have died at all?
She couldn't answer this because it didn't happen, she did become sick and her little sister was now dead.
That was the reality of the situation.
After a couple of minutes Himari's eyes became swollen with dried tears on her reddish pinkish cheeks.
Detaching the hug she looked at Arius and got on her two knees and slammed her head into the sand.
"Arius, I have acted like a complete moron please hit me back or do the same amount of pain I have caused you!"
Himari begged with a guilty voice.
Arius shook his head and slowly got on one knee which placed him at her eye level.
"Raise your head."
Raising her head she was met with Arius's rose eyes which startled her a little.
Arius placed his hand on her head and stroked her soft fluffy fox ears.
"This is your punishment, let me enjoy your fox ears!"
He voiced his punishment to the embarrassed fox empress.
Himari didn't respond and only enjoyed the feeling of warmth on her fox ears.
Suddenly after 5 minutes Arius stopped and took his hand off her head and walked away leaving Himari a little disappointed.
'Why am I disappointed!?'
Himari yelled in her head, for the first time in her life she felt annoyed with a man for detaching his hand from her body.
Arius looked over his shoulders toward Himari.
"Are you coming or staying?"
Himari stopped talking in her head and looked back at Arius.
"Yes I'm coming."
Arius showed a bright smile which caused Himari to feel a little fussy.
"Great, then let's get back to the holy kingdom."
Himari nodded her head.
"Um..."
She walked over to Arius.
Seeing Himari was next to him, Arius snapped his finger and a medium sized portal appeared.
Both Himari and Arius walked through the portal to head back toward the holy kingdom.
