Kitsune

The kitsune are a race of foxes with numerous tails, each tail signifying the power of the kitsune. This particular one has only two, which means it is relatively weak by monster standards; however she should not be underestimated, and normal humans would struggle to oppose her.

In Chapter 1, Luka encounters the Kitsune in the Treasure Cave, having been separated from her leader, Tamamo. She is too dimwitted and accidentally reveals to Luka to be assisting Tamamo, having revealed it when she met him. However, she refuses him to let him by.
 After a battle, the sealed Kitsune bites Luka and runs off, only to be trapped by a Spider Girl. Luka does the heroic act and defeats the Spider Girl, only to be bitten again.
When Luka meets Tamamo, she unseals the Kitsune and his heroic act from earlier allows him to claim the Poseidon’s Bell.

In Chapter 2, after Luka averts the crisis in Yamatai Village, then returns to the town and heads to the Fox Shrine, the same Kitsune from the Treasure Cave is in Tamamo’s place, and recognizes the "hero" from before. She is then bullied by Alice who picks her tails and steals her thin fried tofu.

In Chapter 3, after Luka averts the crisis in Yamatai Village again and returns to the town's Fox Shrine, the Kitsune is still there. Alice then gives her tofu, but it turns out to be too spicy for her to handle.
 Later, Kitsune is seen in the Monster Lord’s Castle, helping Tamamo decipher Promestein's discs that detail her evil plots.
