Fate/Fool Chapter 18

I spent the next few days just relaxing with Tamamo going into full pampering wife mode that almost got to be too much... Except Tamamo knew exactly how to be as clinging as possible with it being smothering.

Or, her beauty and sheer charisma disarmed any possible frustration and anger out of me before it could build up as she hung off me for the entire day except for when I took a show.

Honestly, I expected her to barge into the shower to wash my back or something... But at seeing my honestly confused expression after getting out of the shower. Tamamo just giggled and spoke without shame that she was an 'honest' woman and wanted her man to invite her to eat him as it were.

Especially since we hadn't consummated our union in her own words.

Still, it was a good day to just relax and clear my head.

And as I relaxed and cleared my head, I realized that besides my Six Eye's that allowed me to see through Magecraft and so many other things. I had... Kinda neglected my 'main' cheat as it were in the Fool Pathway.

But although the Fool Pathway and Pathways in general have extremely high potential and power towards the end of the levels. Right now, especially for the Fool pathway, it wasn't useful for combat in much if anyway.

The air bullet, and other magical tricks that the Sequence 7, Magician could use were nothing compared to the Red, Blue, and Hollow Purple I could already conjure up. But there was one important fact that I had glossed over.

As I enhanced my Beyonder features in going through the Sequences, my mana would become far more dense and powerful. Eventually becoming Authority as my power became more eldritch from the Human texture of this world.

'But there is one major issue with all this... If I do become a high level Beyonder, it would be fucking really awkward if Gaia and Alaya decide to blast me out of the world for becoming an Outsider.' I thought awkwardly as I swished the elixer for the 8th Clown Sequence of the Fool Pathway.

The elixer was a mix of gold, yellow, and red, with distinctly separate colors at their boundaries as the colors had differing levels of thickness. With bubbles churning and fizzing within the liquid that rose up from the bottom to the top.

"Hmm, an interesting potion. I am afraid that potions and elixirs aren't something I am too familiar with, though." Tamamo pouted as she inspected the potion in her perview as my wife and a Caster.

I gave a wry smile as I doubted even Medea would be able to get much... Or maybe she would get too much out of my elixers as they were tainted with eldritch logic.

Still, I took the phial filled with eldritch power and I downed it with a shudder that reminded me all too much of when my sponsor gave me the core of the Fool's pathway.

I shuddered with Tamamo holding my arm as I could 'See' as my soul twisted with my innards twisted even further and becoming more elastic as I transformed into a 'clown'.

The Clown Sequence was rather odd for the Pathways as it didn't unlock for the user much in the way of new magical spells. Instead, it gave the user a complete sense of control over their body while also strengthening the body and giving it an insane level of flexibility and grace.

In terms of strengthening my body, it didn't give me a lot of strength in the true sense. I may have gained like double the base strength of a normal human. But it was the extreme grace, flexibility, and complete body control that was the most valuable part of this.

As it allowed me to enhance my own body with the local Reinforcement magic by at least twice I previously could!

I took a piece of paper I had on the side... And my face twitched as I used the single spell that was unlocked with reaching the Clown Sequence.

'This is why I didn't bother with spending days making the elixer... Getting a spell to harden only paper into knives at the level of steel durability is fucking stupid.' 

I shook my head in amusement as with my Six Eye's I could do that already if not better. 

Still, my mana was more potent now, and even Tamamo shifted as her eyebrows pinched and she said softly. "Darling... You need to be careful of those magus hussies! If they learn how potent your Od is, they will steal your bloodline!"

My lips twitched as I knew she was afraid of some hussies throwing themselves at me... Not me being stolen away and hidden in an evil basement or something like that.

"I will be careful Tamamo... But if you are always with me, then how could any of those hussies sink their claws into me." I said softly as I took her hand into my own.

Our fingers naturally intertwined, with Tamamo giggling softly as she brought our conjoined hands together to her face where she kissed the back of my hand.

"Hmm, you little flirt... You know exactly how to speak to helpless maidens like me don't you?" She said with her softly glowing eye's slitted with that visible eye staring into my own with a heavy pressure.

But without a moment of hesitation, I softly pulled Tamamo into my lap with her tails swirling around my chest as I pulled her back into my chest with my free arm wrapping around her chest as I whispered into the kitsune ear that flicked as my soft breath and words hit them.

"If you are always sitting in my lap, and we are holding hands... How could any hussy get between a wife and her husband?"

And I could feel a great tremor run through Tamamo's body before she made a deep hum and she said in a husky whisper that even aimed away from me made smile wryly. "Truly... This Tamamo's darling is too smooth with a maiden's heart. I won't be able to let you out of my sight for but a moment lest you impregnate half of the Clock Tower!"
