《Mail Fox Tales》The 2nd Delivery: Chapter 1
Advertisement
Monday had snuck up on Eva much more quickly then she had expected. Kurt had spent most of the afternoon with them at the shrine and gotten to know everyone there. Though luckily he had declined when Komaki had invited him to stay for dinner and some drinks afterwards. Eva wasn’t sure if she would have been able to sit in this class and pretend to listen otherwise.
Not that the topic of the biology behind yeast fermenting sugar into alcohol wasn’t interesting mind you. But given that she had written exams on this already, and even given some lectures to lower semesters on it, Eva was confident there wasn’t anything new.
Instead she had been using the time to look up more information, well as much as there was on the internet at least, about the weekend cruise she had been invited to.
The shipping company that owned the boat regularly offered weekend trips. A lot of which were basically the same as the one she had been invited to. It was a simple weekend trip from Osaka around some nearby islands and then back to Osaka.
Well at least the scenery will be nice. Eva mused as her research, and the lecture, neared its end. Though hopefully I’ll get more than a nice trip out of it.
With the class over, she quickly packed her things and headed out of the building. Deciding to make the most of her rather long break before the next class, Eva moved to leave the campus. After walking a few minutes , she ducked into an empty alley and took the small bundle she had picked up in the morning out of her bag. Realizing the shrine it was headed for was only a few more streets down the road, she decided to just walk there.

It only took a few more minutes to get there. And she even managed to grab some dango for lunch on the way. Though the moment she stepped onto the shrine grounds, after washing her hands and rinsing her mouth of course, the former human realized a minor issue with her approach. The delivery was supposed to be dropped off in the Honden. Unsure how to tackle that issue right then and there, Eva decided to walk to the shrine’s donation box for now and pretend to give a short prayer. Most of the grounds around her was taken up by an immaculately kept gravel garden. Following the only path across it, she noticed how none of the visitors seemed to pay the handful of Miko tending to the shrine grounds any attention.
Ducking behind a corner to be out of sight from most people, Eva Transformed her clothes to match the outfits worn by the Miko, then she circled around the building she had hid behind. Common visitors would now probably not spare her a second glance with her clothes and quickly tied ponytail matching the other girls working here. While those working at the shrine would probably notice her soon, they were hopefully aware of the duty she was carrying out. And if they had an issue with the mailfox doing her job, they might be working the wrong job. Eva thought to herself as she quickly walked to the Honden to deliver her package.
Sliding the door open barely enough to get in, she kept her gaze to the floor. After all, this chamber was only opened to the public a few times each year. Not to mention that she did not want to disturb anyone actually living here. But as she slid the door closed behind her, only silence greeted her. Unsure where to leave the delivery, Eva decided to follow her gut and put it before a small mirror mounted on a moderately sized podest.

Her work finished, Eva decided to leave quietly, careful not to disturb anything. Of course, as she stepped outside a stern looking priest was about to come in after her. As he saw the young woman step outside he began to speak rapidly.
While the Kitsune could not follow his words, the quiet but angry tone of his voice conveyed enough of his meaning. After making sure there were no others nearby, she slowly let her ears take on a more vulpine appearance. It took a moment for the priest to notice the change, but as the ears flicked towards him, he slowed down, his tone becoming more neutral.
“Who are you? And what were you doing inside?”
“Just your average divine messenger.” Eva began to reply with a smile. “I thought a fox running across the gardens would draw more attention then a miko. So I delivered in this guise.” “Hmph.Then I ask you to leave now that your duties are fulfilled.” The priest finished grumpily, before turning away and returning to his normal obligations. Doing as she was asked, Eva turned to leave. But before she had gotten far a raven came flying right towards her mumbling fast and excitedly in Japanese.
