Path Of Eternity

Chapter 10

"It's too early for this." Yuto groaned as he followed Yasaka along the cobblestone path. He rubbed the dust out of his eyes and stared annoyed at the rocky path.

"Well I figured you would appreciate an early start to your day, and that you two would want to see your new place." She covered her mouth to hide the sly smile she donned. "Though I must say I was more surprised than I should have been seeing you two in bed together. Not surprised that Tamamo sleeps naked."

"Why should I hide my amazing body from my Master." Yuto blushed and looked away from the foxes. Tamamo smiled and grabbed his hand, leading him along.

It didn't take long to arrive at their destination. The scenery of the city's morning lights made for a beautiful view that distracted the trio as they walked.

"Well, here we are." Yasaka turned towards the two and motioned towards the house behind them.

It was a simple one story house with an open backyard that led into the woods. It seemed to combine the old carpentry style with a more modern one, combined with a small pond in the front and a cobblestone pathway.

The inside seemed to match the outside, with a spacious living room that split off into a few different hallways. The kitchen was connected to the open living room with a state of the art fridge and oven.

"All of this...is ours?" Yuto asked as he inspected the house, even the appliances were up to date.

"Not at all. This place has been abandoned for some time and the cost could have been worse, of course since you work for me so I'll give you a discount." She winked at the two.

It was mainly Yuto who wanted a location close to the castle should something happen. If one were to look down the road they would see said castle just down the road. A small walk if either wanted to visit.

"Is this place also furnished?" Yuto asked, wandering off before Yasaka could respond.

"It... is actually. The food will be your responsibility, as well as any personal touches you would like to add."

Tamamo walked around observing the inside, seemingly pleased, she answered the older fox. "A little bigger than I would have liked, but it'll do. I'm sure Yuto would appreciate the extra space."

"I'm sure you'll make use of it too. Just try not to make too big of a mess with your activities." She smiled at Tamamo.

"You won't have to worry about that, we keep it in the bedroom. Unless one of us is feeling frisky." She smiled back.

"The back yard is pretty open, we can probably add more there later when we make some money." Yuto said, suddenly outside.

"When did- please come back inside." Tamamo said, making the blonde walk back inside.

Yasaka gave him a weird look. "You have plenty of money, you realize this right?"

"I know I have a bank account if that's what you mean." He said, inspecting the appliances in the kitchen. They all seemed pretty standard.

Yasaka rolled her eyes and handed her phone over to Yuto. His eyes went wide when he saw the numbers on the screen. Tamamo looked over his shoulder and whistled. "Looks like it went up a bit since last time."

"I guess I have been technically working for you huh. This should be enough to get by for a while." It was a modest amount considering who was hosting them, though it still somehow came close to what one Rin Tohsaka had on standby.

Yasaka shrugged. "You have been doing jobs for me: keeping an eye on Kunou, the little odd jobs you complete for me, and then there's what happened with Shuten. Simple compensation is no big deal."
