"Lucky…?" Legs was shocked by the unexpected meeting.


    Lucky who was now far bigger than she was about a month ago raised her head arrogantly as she looked down at her master.


    She didn''t look down at Legs because she was now taller than him, she looked down at Legs because at this moment, she was standing on top another Fox whopletely defied nature and was as tall as Legs.


    Lucky looked down arrogantly at the familiar faces without saying a word.


    "…" Legs''s jaws dropped in shock.


    Knowing Lucky''s personality, he knew that she deliberately made their reunion to be this dramatic but he could not stop himself from being bbergasted.

    ----


    Legs was even more awed as he looked at this strange gang that Lucky showed up with out of nowhere.


    At this moment, Lucky was not alone but was with a gang of 7 foxes.


    Legs counted them in his head. ''A Red Fox, an Arctic Fox, a Tibetan Fox, a Gray Fox, a Ferrucyon Fox, a Dusicyon Avus, and the strange giant Hoary Fox''.


    Legs swallowed before turning to look at his pet. "Who are these?"


    Lucky''s eyes squinted in arrogance. "Do you admit defeat?"


    "Huh?" Legs was confused. "Defeat? Which defeat?"


    "Do you admit defeat now that I am the best, wisest, and strongest of all the beasts that you have?"


    "…"


    Lucky''s fur even seemed to stand on end arrogantly. "I am now a Grade D Fox, 4 of mypanions here are Grade D Foxes, the remaining 3 are pinnacle Grade E Foxes with special abilities".


    "I created an organization in the beast ne, I call it Lucky''s Society".


    "Redmane here is my Army Commander".


    "…"


    "In less than a month since we becameplete, we have taken the beast ne by storm. You see these scars on my face, they are remnants of the countless wars that I''ve fought in this month". Lucky stood taller arrogantly.


    "Using Redmane''s expert strategic nning, our greatest feat this month was killing a Grade C- Hell Eagle".


    "Legs". Lucky raised her head proudly. "What have you achieved this month?"


    "…"


    "Admit defeat now that I''m the best!"


    "…"


    Legs stood braindead for a few minutes as his brain registered everything that Lucky just said to him, the next moment he eruptedughing maniacally.


    "That''s why you f*cking left me to die despite knowing I was in danger?!"


    "Is that f*cking why?"


    "You ungrateful piece of sh*t!"


    Boom!


    Legs rushed towards Lucky but the giant Hoary Fox took one step forward, Legs paused as the Hoary Fox''s step made an impact like an earthquake.


    Legs chuckled. "Hey big guy, haha, can''t I y with you?"


    Legs took careful steps backward as he directed a look of greviance at Lucky. "That fellow just directed killing intent at me now".


    "Are these guys really your friends?"


    Luckyughed. "I won''t fall for your petty tricks, admit defeat".


    The next moment, the giant Hoary Fox spoke. "Admit defeat before her Royal Highness Lucky or face the consequences and die!"


    "…"


    "Haha". Legs scratched his head andughed. "Lucky, we''re buddies right? Are these guys serious right now?"

    Warning…!


    ----


    ''Genjutsu?!'' Legs''s heart skipped a beat.


    "Hey…, hey, I admit defeat!"


    He jumped. "I f*cking admit defeat!"


    "Lucky look at me!" Legs ran closer to his pet. "Damn, why did you change? You know you mean the whole world to me right?"


    "You know I''ve always believed in your potential, you''re the best, you know you''re my first love right?"


    Lucky tried to act nonchnt but she could not, she blushed. "Really?"


    "Yeah, of course, Predator I''m speaking the truth right?"


    Having been looking at the Yellow Fox since, Predator finally confirmed that this was his missing friend. Without giving a damn about Legs or even the 7 foxes, Predator swaggered forward before pushing the giant fox away.


    He jumped at Lucky the next moment as he roared.


    Lucky tsked in disdain. "You''re still so yful, aren''t you ashamed?"


    "Roar!"


    All the foxes were rmed as they got prepared to tear the Nightmare Beast into pieces but Lucky reacted fast enough to stop them. "Hey, stop, they''re family".


    …


    A few minutester, they gathered round a bonfire in the beast ne.


    "Uhh…, so, these guys, are they your subordinates or what because for some reason they give me Naruto''s 7 ninja swordsmen vibes?"


    Lucky tilted her head in confusion. "What''s Naruto?"


    "Ahh…" Legs finally remembered where he was. "Never mind, I think my brain just strayed off there".


    "So, who are they really? They were calling you royalty".


    Lucky raised her head proudly. "They''re my friends".


    "After leaving you, I sought for ways to be a Grade D beast myself but it was hard, not until I met Redmane though".


    "He imed that I had royalty bloodline and that he could help me fulfill my potential. I was injured then so after he saved me, I trusted him".


    "He helped me be a Grade D beast in less than a week".


    "After that, he started exining how unique I was to me. He said that I had the potential to be a 9-tailed fox and that he''ll help me".


    "He said ording to history, 7panions were perfect for the 9-tailed fox and that once they know my identity, they''ll follow me voluntarily".


    "He helped me find the remaining 6 and like he said, they were not only powerful and talented, they agreed to follow me once they knew my identity".


    "I told you I was special".


    "I know". Legs smiled as he rubbed Lucky''s head.


    "No rubbing of heads!"


    "Hey, you''re no fun. You know, when I rub your head, research says that you grow stronger faster, it will help you pull the distance from Predator".


    "Really?"


    "Yeah".


    "Then rub my head".


    As Legs rubbed Lucky''s head and as the fox purred, he directed a suspicious look at the red fox that casuallyid down a few distance away.


    ''Who are you?'' He thought.


    In Darvis and the part of the beast ne that was connected here, Legs believed that no human or beast could identify Lucky.


    Lucky even had to evolve once before he identified her real potential. For this red fox to identify her 9-tailed potential, it was definitely no ordinary fox.


    ''Damn, Lucky is just a few months old and you guys are hitting on her already? Perverse foxes, I''ll definitely unveil your real identity though''.


    Amid Legs''s thoughts, Lucky suddenly made a demand.


    "Legs".


    "Huh?"


    "Use that ability of yours to grant me the ability to be the leader of a herd".


    "Ahh…" Legs was surprised by her demands, then heughed. "But that is only possible if you are my contracted beast".


    "I know but our rtionship is even closer than your contracted beasts, I believe it will work".


    Legs smiled and raised his brows. "So now you''re finally admitting how close we are right?"


    "Get lost!"


    "Hahaha". Legsughed his heart out. "Let me try it though".


    Legs sat upright before cing his right hand on Lucky''s head.

    You have activated active ability: God of the Herd

    Legs watched and waited in anticipation


    The next moment, his virtual interface lit up again.

    Congrattions…
