Golden Fox with System

Song Forest - Near the [Ang Village].

"Try deflecting this!" Theo said, attacking Jka at a very fast speed.

Jka: "Auhaha, very easy." Jka said and dodged Theo's attack agilely. Right after, he threw a <Fireball> in Theo's direction, hitting him. Of course, he did not put much power in this attack so as not to seriously hurt Theo. So despite hitting Theo, he wasn't hurt.

This was the first time Theo had fought someone so good at controlling his strength, and seeing that Jka had a fair amount of it, Theo decided to use his affinity to attack as well.

Theo: "Block this then!" Theo said, concentrating [Lightning] in his mouth and attacking Jka.

Seeing this attack heading towards him, Jka got very surprised and scared and ran quickly to dodge.

"BOOM"

J: "Cough cough... T-Theo! Are you trying to kill me?!" he said in fear as he saw the small crater formed by Theo's attack.

"Oh, it was bad, I got carried away a little, Hehehe!" Theo said, laughing awkwardly.

Jka: "What 'Hehehe', that scared me to death!" Jka said angrily.

Theo: "Jka, I already said that I was wrong!"

"Auhaha, I'm just kidding," he said, "but this time, use less power to attack." Remembering the strength of Theo's attack, he couldn't stop reminding him. Since even if he didn't end up dying from the attack, he knew he wouldn't escape unharmed if it caught him.

"Yes, of course!" Theo replied.

Facing Theo, Jka began channelling his mana and took an aggressive stance. His mana soon ran down his body and into his claws. Theo had greater control over his mana, but he decided to wait for Jka to prepare. When Jka finished channelling his mana into his claws, he began to run towards Theo at high speed.

After that, no more words were spoken. Theo channelled mana on his hind legs and the ground exploded, forcing his paws to move towards Jka. Because of his impulse, Theo soon arrived in front of him. Without a moment's hesitation, his claws collided. "BOMMM!!" Creating great shock waves, and each of his sharp claws, gleamed sparking in all directions.

Because of the shock waves, many trees that were nearby were cut down. Soon after both were thrown more than 5 feet apart. Although they were thrown away from each other, they were not hurt.

Jka got ready again, but this time his claws were surrounded by flames, and then he started to run again towards Theo.

Looking at Jka approaching, Theo's claws began to be surrounded by [Darkness], and when the Jka got very close to him, their attacks collided once more. "POWWW!" Theo's [Darkness] attacks began had a huge pressure force on Jka. The moment Jka began to feel it, his face began to lose some colour, and soon after he retreated 8 steps, he looked at Theo in amazement.

Jka: "What.... what is this dark energy? How can it be so strong?" Jka asked, gasping in astonishment at Theo.

Looking at him, Theo noticed that his face was a little pale. Theo began to sweat cold, wondering if he exaggerated again.

"That's my element affinity [Darkness]!"Theo replied.

"[Darkness]? I've seen others use it, but I've never seen one so strong! "Said Jka, surprised.

Hearing Jka's answer, Theo imagined that his affinity for [Darkness] was strong and different because he managed to have a small advance in his cultivation technique.

He recalled he had a small advance in his cultivation technique <Primordial Darkness Ray>. He felt that his [Lightning] and [Darkness] had a quality increase in them. Even his control over the affinities increased by a very large margin.

"Auhaha, let it go, better head back, we've already been training for a long time, Klin and Yuki are probably worried." Said Jka laughing.

Theo: "Ah yes, right, let's head back!"

Walking back to [Ang Village] with Jka, Theo asked, "By the way, when will your dispute be for the position of [Clan Leader]?"

"It's still two months away, so I asked you to train with me!" Jka replied.

Theo: "Oh, so that's how it's like..." Hearing what Jka said, he thought there was still time for him to help Jka get stronger. He thought that if he gave him a cultivation technique, Jka would certainly to rise himself faster and the chance to be [Clan Leader] would be higher.

On the way to the [Dog Clan], Theo noticed a large, well-built building. Curious about this place, Theo asked: "Jka, what's in this building?"

Jka: "This is the [Monkey Clan]'s Auction House. Because they are good with their hands, they auction lots of things made by them."

Hearing what Jka said, "To think there was even an auction in this [Village]," Theo thought, filled with surprise and curiosity at what was being auctioned.

Thinking about something Theo asked, "And what is used as a currency then?"

"Of course, it is forbidden to try to negotiate with [Magic Cores] of the people of our [Ang Village], if they do that, depending on the situation, they may even be killed!" He said in a serious tone, and continue to speak "But most of the [Magic Cores] are from chaotic (Animals)."

"Chaotic (Animals)?" Theo asked doubtfully.

Seeing Theo nodding, admitting he had no knowledge of it, he said: "Chaotic (Animals), they are (Animals) who ate [Magic Cores] and lost their sanity. The redder their eyes are, the more ferocious and brutal." Seeing that Theo was paying close attention, Jka continued "Although the chaotic (Animals) are wild, they are not stupid. They would try their best to avoid groups of (Animals), and only attack those who are in a smaller group, or alone. So catching them up is extremely difficult. "

"Wow! And to think that there are (Animals) like this..." Theo then remembered the many times he was attacked by (Animals), all with red eyes. But before, he thought it was normal, and now hearing Jka talking about it, Theo realized that his lack of knowledge was too great, but he decided not to think about it much now.

Remembering something Theo asked, "Ah right, if I want to put items in this auction, can I too?"

Jka: "Yes you can!"

Hearing Jka confirm Theo was glad to know that he would be able to deal with the [Magic Cores] if he put them in the auction house. He thought of shopping a few things in [System Store] after, that wouldn't catch a lot of attention, then going back to [Ang Village] and getting some [Magic Cores] like that.

Pkai: "You're back!" Said the same [Clan Dog] guard from yesterday. Today when Theo and Jka had left to train, Theo came to know that the name of this guard was called Pkai.

Jka: "Auhaha! Yes, we're back, if I continued to fight Theo I wouldn't even be able to get up the next day!" He said with a loud laugh.

Pkai: "Oh, is he that strong?" He asked in surprise, knowing that Jka was strong for his level.

Jka: "Yes, he is!"

Pkai: "Then Theo"

"I'll be training with him whenever I come back to the [Village]!" Theo said.

Pkai: "Aye, will your partner soon have a breakthrough in cultivating Theo?! Congrats!"

Theo: "Thank you!" Theo smiled.

Jka: "Auhaha, let's get going? See you later, Pkai."

Pkai: "Okay, rest well Young Master, Theo!"

Theo: "See you later." Theo said, and they started to head for Jka's house.

After walking for eight minutes, Jka and Theo arrived in front of the house and were greeted by Klin and Yuki.

"Looks like they're doing great!" Theo thought happily.

Yuki soon arrived in front of Theo and began rubbing her face on his chest, while being happy with his arrival.

Looking at Yuki, Theo could feel she was very close to the Student Kingdom.

Yuki: "??"

Theo: "Oh, it's nothing, I'm just glad that you're almost in the next Kingdom... that's it!" He said.

Hearing this. Yuki was very happy. And snuggled further into Theo's chest, her ears and fox's tail began to wag because she was very happy at that moment.

Theo smiled gently at Yuki, watching her act like this. He thought she was very cute right now.

-------------

After they entered the house and talked for a while. Theo said, "We're going back now, but I promise we'll come back to visit you!"

"Don't you want to stay here any longer?" Jka asked, wanting them to stay.

"Hm... I have some things to solve" Theo replied.

Jka and Klin seemed a little sad with Theo and Yuki's departure but soon Jka started to laugh and said, "Then it can't be helped, but you have to come back for us to talk and I want my rematch!"

Theo: "Okay. I will do that!"

After saying goodbye to them, Theo and Yuki left the [Ang Village]. Theo and Yuki started running towards the [Cave].
