Chapter 161: Bewitching Demon Fox!

Bewitching Demon Foxes were cunning, possessed charm skills, and widespread attacks. They were challenging to deal with under normal circumstances.

“No wonder there’s a lack of students training with these beasts. I might’ve been too careless with this,” Moss said in a self-deprecating manner.

Since Moss was already there, he should just go along with it. With his Holy Belief around, the foxes’ additional damage was nothing to him as long as he could hold them off for twenty minutes.

Moss and the foxes were in a stalemate for a while. Then, as if sensing something, the foxes activated their Charm skill and launched a wide-ranged attack on Moss.

Moss instantly felt a strange sensation in his body. It was like an invisible force had attracted him. He could not help but approach the foxes. However, his knight’s spirit responded and activated when he stepped forward.

Moss instantly felt his spiritual power growing, and his mind became more focused. He quickly summoned a shield as he began to use his Beast Communication.

Still, Moss did not sense the foxes’ intentions to interact with him, only frenzy.

At that time, some students realized someone was fighting the Bewitching Demon Foxes, so some curious students gathered to watch.

Meanwhile, a big screen outside the colosseum showed everything that happened. Despite that, the people inside the colosseum could not see what was happening outside.

“Isn’t that B-666?”

“It seems B-666 is in a tough situation.”

“Luckily, he chose the lower-rank option. Otherwise, he would be in a more dire situation.”

“We have a show to watch!”

The surrounding students became excited when they saw the foxes surrounding Moss. Perhaps it was because the students only wanted to enjoy the show and not overthink it. The students thought seeing someone stuck between a rock and a hard place was interesting.

“D*mn! B-666 is fighting back!” Someone among the students shouted, attracting more students and some instructors to watch.

Moss, in the colosseum, had recovered from his dilemma. Two minutes later, his Holy Belief began to take effect, reducing his opponents’ damage by 10% as his battle intent grew more potent. Meanwhile, Moss constantly activated his knight spirit along with his potential.

The fluctuations between Moss’s buffs made him increasingly clear-headed.

“B-666 is retaliating! Am I hallucinating?!”

“This turn of events is swift and impressive!”

“We even have problems with Red Flame White Tigers, let alone Bewitching Demon Foxes!”

“Come on, B-666!”

The students began to cheer and chant for Moss when they saw him turn the situation around.

Although Moss’s attack had forced the foxes’ to retreat, they refused to back down. The lead fox increased her spiritual power and reactivated her Charm.

The lead fox had increased the potency of her charm, but its effects on Moss still got weaker as the battle progressed. On the contrary, Moss only became more assertive, which surprised the surrounding students.

“Is the fox going easy on B-666, or is B-666 getting braver as the battle progresses?”

“That doesn’t make sense.”

Faced with such a situation, the Bewitching Demon Foxes became flustered as Moss threw their attack formation into chaos. The foxes would occasionally yelp at each other.

Moss could feel their emotions, so he activated his Beast Communication again. He did not want to kill or even injure the foxes because the rules did not allow it.

Moss only thought of continuously fighting them because he learned that the foxes were a more intelligent species of Magical Beasts. They preferred to use their spiritual powers before activating their skills, so they could gain control of their opponent and make it impossible for them to win.

However, it was undoubtedly excellent for Moss because he could better his spiritual power. He could win as long as the foxes could not control him.

When Moss thought his Beast Communication had failed again, he suddenly felt a sense of concern and anxiety from the foxes. He was delighted and immediately replied inwardly, “I just want to spar, not hurt you.”

Meanwhile, he was worried the foxes would not understand or sense his intentions, so he continuously gestured toward the foxes to see if they understood him.

Ultimately, he could not figure out if the foxes could understand his intentions or gestures. In short, the foxes’ hostility toward Moss had receded. The foxes only sat around wagging their tails and did not attack.

‘This is the first time I’ve succeeded. My Beast Communication has finally come into effect!’ The results greatly encouraged Moss.

Noticing this, Moss continued to use his Beast Communication and gestured non-stop. However, he was probably the only one who understood his gestures.

The students watching outside did not know Moss possessed a Beast Communication skill. They all thought he knew sign language after what they saw. Moss could affect the foxes with just one gesture.

“That’s strange. I thought the foxes used Charm.”

“Is it me, or did B-666 stun the foxes with a wave of his hand?”

The surrounding instructors were also highly shocked when they saw how Moss interacted with the foxes.

Although the foxes were not as strong as other beasts in raw power, their spiritual power was more potent than most. The foxes would have an easier time charming opponents with low spiritual power and then defeat them whenever their opponent drops their guard.

Still, neither side launched attacks on the other and seemed to be at peace.

“How bizarre!”

“Is B-666’s spiritual power that potent?”

The instructors knew that the foxes could more or less affect a level 20 to 30 student. Still, a student who was strong enough could defeat the foxes. Even so, one would not feel good after getting bewitched by a fox, so very few were willing to take the initiative to fight.

Although the other students had fought other beasts multiple times, no one had ever encountered a situation like Moss’s. Still, the students were shocked that they could witness a level 20 knight battle the foxes in such a way.

Nonetheless, Moss’s spiritual power was not as high as the instructors had imagined. They did not know Moss had evolved into a Holy Knight and had gained Beast Communication and Holy Belief.

Everyone watched silently as the Bewitching Demon Foxes received some information and returned to their cage.

Moss exited the colosseum in disappointment. However, to everyone’s surprise, Moss pressed the middle-ranked button this time.

“What?!”

“The lower-rank option was already tough to deal with, yet B-666 dares to challenge the middle-rank foxes?!”

“I admire him!”

Amidst the students’ exclamations, Moss reentered the colosseum. Then 20 Bewitching Demon Foxes burst from their cages while yelping. When they saw Moss, a few started yelping at each other.

However, the foxes that received the other foxes’ commands did not seem to react. After yelping a few more times, the foxes charged at Moss. But as they fought, a similar thing as the previous fight happened.

Moss and the foxes stopped attacking, and the foxes sat on the ground to look at the human as he continuously gestured. Then the foxes retreated into their cage.

Afterward, Moss exited the colosseum and pressed the upper-ranked button. Although thirty foxes appeared this time, they repeated the same scene during the two previous occasions.

When Moss pressed the lower-ranked button again, the previous ten foxes did not attack after exiting their cage. They simply sat around and returned to their cages.

“What the heck is going on?!”

“I think B-666 is training them!”

“It’s like B-666 had drilled some sense into the foxes!”

“Yeah, the foxes aren’t fighting at all!”

The surrounding students discussed animatedly and were shocked at what had happened. However, Moss was unwilling to leave because he had fallen in love with that colosseum.

After a few training rounds, Moss sensed the foxes transmitting something.

“Is he playing us like monkeys?!”

“He doesn’t want to hurt us anyway.”

“We’ll just stand around. I don’t think that man will do anything to us.”

Even though Moss was unwilling to leave, he had no choice but to exit the colosseum reluctantly.
