At your service, my queen. 🗿
Oh, right. Going by the Perfect Memento, she's pretty much the queen among the Beast Yо̄kai – the apex predator. And it's not a description for nine-tailed foxes in general too. It is Ran in particular who stands at the top.
Huh... interesting. By the footnote, "Ran" is not her real name. It's the name Yukari gave her. Huh? But, but... very recently in UDoALG, Yūma called her...
久しぶりだな 藍、 今は八雲藍だったか？
What if... what if it's not something as trivial as Yukari just giving the Yakumo name to her? What if it's the case of a different pronunciation? The name of the shikigami is Ran. The name of the nine-tailed fox... is Ai! So the full line from Yūma might just be...
Long time no see... Ai, though these days I suppose it's Yakumo Ran?
