The world of the nine-tailed fox and the world of humans

03 Are they all gumiho?

The landlord called me out, so I followed him, but why was he calling me? Is it about the rent? But I remember clearly that we finished talking over the phone and text...?

"My lady."

"yes?"

"Close your eyes and tell me what you feel."

"Yes?.. Ah... yes."

-Ssuk

I closed my eyes and was wandering around, not knowing what to feel, when suddenly a very sweet scent came over me. It wasn't the smell of perfume or body wash, but the scent of a fox. And it was incredibly strong, and each scent was different.

What the heck? Did you bring a fox in front of me? I wasn't told to open my eyes, but I have to. If I keep going like this, I might get really drunk on the scent and do something.

"Hmm..."

"Uh...your eyes..."

"Um...excuse me...landlord..."

"...uh?"

"Over there, back there..."

"...ah."

When I opened my eyes, there was the landlord in front of me, and I don't know if the boarders behind him had changed or disappeared, but there were no boarders, and instead, there were 12 foxes. No, 12 thousand tigers. I was so surprised that my eyes changed, and the landlord said, "You...eyes..."

When I took out the hand mirror, my eyes had turned purple, and I saw myself unconsciously frowning, perhaps because I was annoyed by the scent. My fangs were also sticking out... I looked like a fox whose fur was standing on end because it was so angry.

After the 12 thousand dogs waggled their tails a few times, the boarders appeared again and I was so flustered that I couldn't even speak. Uh...uh...like this. Ha...

"It's a fox."

"Welcome, heroine. Welcome to the boarding house where only nine-tailed foxes live."

"yes..?"

"Welcome to the boarding house where only gumihos live. We are all gumihos."

"It's not me...ugh!!"

"Ugh...what is this? When you're surprised, your tail comes out first...can you untie this for me?"

"Ah...yes..."

"Whew... I'm starting to feel better now. Can you briefly explain the title system and what a noble clan is?"

"Um... I'll go first! Hi~ My name is Yoon Jeong-han, and call me oppa! I'm Baek Mi-ho."

"Oh, yes, Jeonghan oppa."

"Hello~ My name is Hong Ji-soo and I'm Baek Mi-ho. Do you know that the guy called the landlord over there is Choi Seung-cheol? He's also Black Mi-ho. Just call me Oppa~"

"Ah, yes."

"That bastard Hong Ji-soo... Those two and I are 2400 years old. I'll introduce myself next. It'll take a long time."

"Oh, okay.. hehe"

"Well, from the left, Moon Jun-hwi, Kwon Soon-young, Jeon Won-woo, and Lee Ji-hoon. They're all the same age as you, so just call them "who are you?" Except for Lee Ji-hoon, they're all called "Heukmiho."

"Oh, I understand!"

"Next, from the right, Myeongho, Mingyu, Seokmin, Seungkwan, Hansol, and Chan. They're younger than you. Seungkwan is the black fox except for Myeongho."

"Ah. Do you want to call me older sister..?"

"We don't care! We'll call you older sister!"

"Oh, okay, Seung-kwan."

"Then everyone disperse. Ah, we all know you're a black fox anyway. You don't have to hide your tail and ears. The female protagonist is a black fox."

"yes..."

Suddenly, I was startled from behind, and I ended up strangling the landlord with my tail. I was so sorry, what should I do... As I listened, the tension gradually relaxed, and my fangs came back in and my eyes returned to normal. I told you not to hide it, so I have no intention of hiding it.

By the way, there are extremely few white foxes... only about 4... Wow, 10 out of 14 are black foxes? This will be tough... It feels like a storm has been brewing since day one. I've memorized their names, faces, and ages, so adjusting won't be difficult.
