Chapter 39: Taming The Cloud Moon Fox

As she opened her eyes, she immediately jumped into the air and attacked Kenji with a swift punch.

"Ah!" Kenji exclaimed, as he realized that he had just been hit right in the nose!

"Children, get behind me!" the lady said, looking at Kenji menacingly. But when she realized that the kids were just staring at her, as if she had said the strangest words, she understood something was off.

"I said get behind me and let me deal with this man!" she said once more, this time with a stricter expression.

"Why would they get behind you when you just hit their father?!" Kenji said, bearing through the pain in his nose.

"Wha—" The lady suddenly had a strange expression on her face as she heard Kenji’s words. "Their father? You mean that they’re your children?" she asked, her gaze inquisitive.

"Yes, their father! I mean, I had just helped you, and you repay me with a punch?!" Kenji said, a vein bulging at the side of his head.

Hearing his words, her eyes immediately turned cold. "If you’re their father, then doesn’t that mean that you left them here? When they were about to be raped by those disgusting humans?" she said, a bit of anger and fierceness in her voice.

"Wait, rape? You mean they were about to rape my babies?!" Kenji was shocked to the core by this revelation. If he had known about this sooner, he wouldn’t have cared; he would have torn off the heads of those people!

"Yes, ra—" Before she could finish her sentence, she fell back to the ground weakly.

As she was about to hit the ground, Kenji’s firm, masculine hands caught her in time. "Oh yeah, I almost forgot that the pill was still active in you," Kenji said as he scratched his head.

"You mean the Chaos Bind Pill is still in me?" she asked weakly, her eyes fluttering, as if she were about to fall asleep.

Kenji nodded at her words, and immediately, a wave of dread crossed through her body, making her even weaker. "So this is the end. This is how my bloodline and race will end? Ha! I thought I would be the one to continue this... I thought I could," she said, depressed by the revelation of her impending death.

"Well, I could cure you,"

Kenji’s words were like a bolt of lightning to her. Did he just say that he could cure her? He could save her from the effects of the Chaos Bind Pill?

"Really? You have a Somber Willow herb with you?!" she asked, her voice holding on to a strand of hope.

"Well, no. I don’t even know what a Somber Willow herb is," Kenji said, scratching his head again.

Immediately, her last strand of hope was cut off. The only thing she knew that could cure her from the effects of the Chaos Bind Pill was a Somber Willow herb. And if he didn’t have any of that, then her fate had already been set in stone.

She was going to meet death today.

"Although I don’t have that, hmm, Somber Willow herb, I still have another way of curing you, and this way is guaranteed," Kenji said with confidence laced in his voice.

"You mean you can cure me without using the Somber Willow herb? How?! Just tell me what to do, and I’ll do it," she said, hope reinstigating itself in her heart.

"That might be a bit difficult," Kenji said with a raised eyebrow. "Are you sure you’re willing to do anything to cure yourself?" Kenji asked, a wave of seriousness cloaking his face.

"Yes! Cough! I’ll do... anything," she said, her voice becoming weaker by the second.

"We don’t have much time left," he said in an alarmed tone. "We have to do it now; we have to begin the taming sequence."

Immediately, his sentence went through her ears, another wave of shock, just like lightning striking her rushed through her body. "T—taming sequence? As in you’re going to make me your contracted beast?" she asked for confirmation.

"That’s the only way to help you. I have a special ability. If I permanently tame a beast, then that said beast would have all of her illnesses and ailments cured, no matter what her condition is at that moment," Kenji said solemnly.

Hearing his words, her eyes brightened up, like a dying flame being poured fuel to ignite!

"Then let’s do it! What are you waiting for?!" she asked, her voice showing enthusiasm for the process.

Kenji was surprised by her enthusiasm. "Why do you seem so excited? I thought beasts like you were really proud and wouldn’t even let themselves be touched by a tamer, not to mention actually being tamed?" Kenji said, a bit confused by the turn of events.

Hearing his words, she shook her head. "It’s not like that. I had already sworn my life to whosoever comes to save me. So no matter what now, I have no choice. It’s better to feel happy about the situation than to be sad and moody about it. Besides, if I don’t do this, then I’m truly doomed," she said, explaining the reason for her enthusiasm.

With a soft smile, Kenji got up. "Alright then, let’s do this!"

•••••[The Children’s Joint Mindscape]

"Adults are weird, brother Leo. One minute, they look really sad, and the next, they seem excited," Pheia said, a bit confused.

"I know, right? That’s why I never want to grow up because I’ll be weird just like them, and besides, I won’t be able to stay next to Kenji-sama anymore," Leo said in response.

"What? When we grow up, we will have to leave Kenji-sama?!" Leia said, alarmed by the revelation.

"Didn’t you know? When we grow up, we would have to go away from Kenji-sama and go do adult things somewhere far away," Pheia said, as if stating the obvious.

"What?! I don’t want to stay away from Kenji-sama! I’m never going to grow up!" Leia said, her mind fully resolute.

"Yeah! We’ll never grow up!" Leo and Pheia said simultaneously, their minds resolute about the topic.

But unbeknownst to them, growing up isn’t a choice they can make. They still have to leave their tiny, cute bodies and become strong warriors!

••••••••

Kenji knelt before the Cloud Moon Fox, his hand hovering over her delicate form as the final stage of the taming contract loomed. In his palm, a faint, glowing sigil began to swirl—an intricate mix of golden and silver light, pulsating as though alive.

"By the bonds of fate and the will of my soul," Kenji murmured, his voice steady yet resonant, echoing with power. With each word, the magic in his palm grew brighter, sending ripples of energy into the air.

Suddenly, a large, radiant magic circle materialized beneath them, its intricate runes shimmering with hues of gold, silver, and a faint blush of pink, representing the Fox’s legendary bloodline. The circle expanded outward, marking the entire area with a glowing boundary. The runes began to move—rotating, intertwining—forming a mesmerizing dance of light.

As the circle took shape, a second, smaller magic circle appeared above the Cloud Moon Fox, directly mirroring the one below. Both circles began spinning, faster and faster, drawing streams of ethereal energy from their surroundings into their cores. The air crackled with an electrifying hum, and small particles of light floated upward like fireflies.

Kenji closed his eyes, his voice growing louder as he chanted, each word infused with intent and resolve.

"By my essence, I vow to protect and cherish; by your will, our destinies entwine. Speak your name, and let our bond be forged!"

The moment his final word left his lips, the energy between the two magic circles surged.

With her breath heavy, she spoke her name, "Haruka."

Immediately, streams of light connected the top and bottom circles, creating an intricate three-dimensional web of glowing threads. The threads wrapped around the Cloud Moon Fox, binding her gently yet firmly in radiant bands of light.

The Fox’s eyes flickered open, glowing with the same hue as the magic. She let out a soft growl, almost melodic, as her energy synchronized with Kenji’s. A final surge of power cascaded through the area, and the light from the circles converged into a single point—Kenji’s palm. The symbol on his hand burned brightly before imprinting itself onto the Fox’s forehead, marking the completion of the contract.

The glow faded, leaving a serene stillness in its wake. The magic circles disappeared, and the mark on Kenji’s hand now shone faintly before fading into a subtle outline—a permanent reminder of their bond.

The Cloud Moon Fox stood, her strength fully restored, her eyes meeting Kenji’s with newfound loyalty. With a graceful bow of her head, she acknowledged her tamer.

"My Master,"
