As Yumeko attempted to try and teach the [i]still young and totally fresh[/i] dark fox about military jargin, it became clear that such a thing was... Perhaps not the best investment of time... Then came the other question.. A much more... Delciate topic, to be sure... Miyuki's eyes narrowed a bit at the blonde fox's inquiry. She understood that she was trying to be tactful and polite, and was merely looking for a point of reference... But... Well.. It was a sore... Very sore... Thing to talk about for Miyuki. Something that she didn't enjoy either thinking about or discussing... But... "... I don't keep track of the humans' calendar or way of counting the centuries." She answered, with a sigh. "As for the Emperor... Which one? I've outlived several of them." She added, crossing her arms infront of her chest with a slight huff. She gave Yumeko a side-glance. "..: At the time of my... Slumber... The humans had just started riding those iron boxes that moved without horses." Cars. So, she'd been around to at least the early 1900's... Which was... Strange... By that time, most powerful mysticism and magic used by humans had long since faded into the realm of legends, superstittion or folktales... Sure, there might've still been some [i]secret[/i] orders or clans or whatever around, but they tood were usually substantially weaker and less capable than back in the old, old days... So just how... How had someone like Miyuki ended up being [i]removed[/i] from Earth's history for so long...? Perhaps it was best not to think about it. Regardless! The dark fox watched as Yumeko demonstrated this... Ass-ult rifle... It was... Strange... it looked like those old iron pipes that got filled with the black powder and then set on fire... But it could fire many more metal balls, and at much faster rate, all without needing to be reloaded inbetween each shot. An improvement, for sure. But... Well... Miyuki looked down the range, at the Goddess' results on the target... She looked back at Yumeko. A blank face. Miyuki was not impressed by this showing. Then the golden fox did something else. She put the rifle down, after.. Seemingly pulling it apart first? What? Why? ... Well, whatever... She was now pointing a finger at the target, instead of the 'rifle', and a small energy ball shot forth. Yumeko seemed very proud of this achievement. Miyuki was... Uhm... Well... Miyuki was still not impressed by this showing. "... So... You fight the invaders with these... Ass Rifles and your energy spheres?" She asked, tails flitting lightly fro side to side.
