Inside the Dreamscape, Jaune was having a hard time with the monsters. Low stats killed him, but thanks to the Nine-Tails, he can keep up when releasing 10% of his strength. Why? Because…

[Jaune Arc

Occupation: None, Level: 200, Race: Kitsune I (Transcendent Species)

Mana: 16500(100), Attack: 21500(100), Defense: 16500(100),

Agility: 21500(100), Intelligence: 15500, Luck: 15500,

Divine Energy: 10/10

BP:10000]

When Jaune is fused with Nine-Tails, his stats are boosted by 10x. Releasing 10% of his strength would bring out his full power in Kitsune form. He never imagined how powerful Nine-Tails was.

Amber was looking at Jaune. She said, "I thought you said your stats were sealed?"

Jaune replied, "It is! I didn't know my Kitsune form enhances my stats by 10x!"

Amber realized the implication and said, "That's insane! That would mean when you are unsealed completely, you have 10x more power in this form!"

Jaune nodded but said, "That's not the craziest part. Senjutsu, one of my abilities in this form, allows me to increase my stats by 10x more!"

Amber said, "Bull! Absolute bull! Is there anyone in Remnant capable of beating you?"

Jaune thought for a moment and said, "Maybe. I'm strong, but I'm not overconfident and arrogant that I would believe I am the strongest."

Amber understood that. Be confident, but not overconfident, to the point of arrogance.

Jaune and Amber got deeper into the dungeon. He could feel it. The presence of the Zombie Overlord III was getting more intense. They were getting closer to the source.

Jaune said to Amber, "Be alert. I can feel the presence of that thing. That Zombie has evolved trice already. And to make it worse, it was capable of using magic."

Amber was shocked to hear that, "Really? A trice evolved. That's scary."

Jaune added, Beyond scary. I know there aren't any Zombies here, or at least we haven't seen any yet, but the Zombie Overlord III can empower Zombies. I was thinking, what if it could also empower monsters? The deeper the floor we head to, the more powerful the monster. Imagine the Zombie Overlord empowering them. It's scary to think about."

Amber shivered to hear what Jaune said. This could get dangerous, but she thought, 'It is better than dying in that woman's hands. I'll take my chances here.'

As Jaune and Amber arrived on the next floor, Jaune released his [Beast Takeover] and used [Beast Manifestation].

When summoned, Nine-Tails was a massive Beast but can change its size due to shapeshifting. Now, it was only as tall as Jaune. Albeit, still significant. But originally was more ridiculous.

Jaune said, "Hunt!"

Nine-Tails nodded and started hunting. Using her Spirit Magic, she summoned Fox spirits to fight with her. They each had half of her strength.

Watching Nine-Tails fight, Jaune learned more about using his tails as weapons. It could be used to grab the enemy or pummel them. It can even defend against attacks as it is incredibly durable.

As Nine-Tails hunted, Jaune heard a bunch of notifications.

[Beep! You have Levelled up!]

[Beep! You have Levelled up!]

[Beep! You have Levelled up!]

[Beep! You have Levelled up!]

[Beep! You have Levelled up!]

[Beep! You have Levelled up!]

Amber looked at Nine-Tails with a deadpan expression. The Beast felt like she was looking at Jaune fighting. She said, "When you summoned the fox, is it meant to have your stats?"

Jaune smiled and said, "Yup! This could be a trump card if I don't want to release my [Loop of Binding]. I was glad that Nine-Tails received my full stats when I manifested her, even when my stats were sealed."

Amber said, "Then, does that mean you don't have to hunt yourself? I assume since you manifested her, the experience goes to you."

Jaune replied, "That's right. I can ask Nine-Tails to hunt for me and concentrate on creating more spells."

Amber asked, "Say, Jaune. Do you mind teaching me some of your spells?"

Jaune replied, "I don't mind, but I have an inkling that you wouldn't be able to learn any of it."

Amber questioned, "Why not? The power of the Maiden is magic. Your spells are magic."

Jaune explained, "That is true. However, this is only my speculation. You may have magical energy, but you do not own it. Seeing your usage of it, I deduced that your ability is a set of spells programmed into the magical energy. You, yourself, are incapable of using the magical energy. You merely tell it to release one of the set magical spells programmed."

Nevertheless, Jaune tried to teach Amber how to use his spells, but as Jaune speculated, Maber was incapable of using any of them.

Hours later, Jaune woke up. It was time for a new day. Looking around, Jaune saw Nora, Lei, Pyrrha, his mother, and his older sister looking at him.

Jaune asked, "What are you guys doing here? And why are you looking at me like that?"

Nora, wiping fake tears, said, "Jaune, you said you won't do sexy time until the third date, but now I see you sleeping with another woman."

Jaune was confused. He then looked to his right and saw Amber naked.

Jaune said, "Why aren't you wearing anything?"

Amber replied, "Sorry, my body got used to sleeping with little clothing. So, I thought I might as well take everything off."

She then looked at everyone, saying, "Nothing happened! This is all a misunderstanding!"

Nora, teasingly, said, "Sure it is. After all, people would sleep in a man's bed naked all the time, right?"

Jaune stood up and playfully karate-chopped Nora's head, saying, "Stop teasing her, Nora."

Nora laughed and said, "He-he! Okay, I'll stop."

Saphron said, "Lil bro, you work fast. Do I have to be worried about you stealing Terra? I mean, I sometimes see this glassy look in her eyes when she looks at you."

Terra smacked Saphron's side.

Nora had a thoughtful thought, saying, "Are you sure you're not the one interested in your brother? Sure, Terra has the glassy eye thingy, but I also see it in you."

Saphron stuttered, "W-What! I-I don't k-know what y-you mean!"

With a smirk, Nora said, "Sure you don't." she even winked at her.

Saphron dashed outside the room. Jaune was oblivious to what was happening the entire time since he headed to the bathroom before Nora spoke.

Once Jaune was dressed and ready for the day, he was still in his Kitsune Form. He loved this form. He used [Teleport] and arrived in front of Yang and Ruby, who both said, "Jaune! We were expecting you!"

Yang said, "Blake informed me that you might be popping by. Though, she never mentioned you would be teleporting. Is that something you got in the Dreamscape?"

Jaune replied, "Nope! I made the spell myself! Pretty cool, right?"

Ruby, with enthusiasm unmatched, said, "When we get our Magic Circuit that you promised us, will you teach us this spell?"

Jaune smiled and said, "Of course! You having the ability of [Teleport] would help me ease my worries as it would be a tool for you to escape in case of something going wrong during our missions."

He added, "Where is your Dad? I want this to be over with. I had to deal with Pyrrha's Dad, Grandpa, and Blake's Dad. I guess it's both your father's turn."

From behind, Jaune heard someone saying, "So, you're Jaune. I heard all about you from my girls."

Jaune looked back and saw a man with blond hair, two small strands sticking out from the top, and blue eyes. His facial hair has a soul patch and slight stubble along his jawline. On his right arm is a tattoo of his emblem, which resembles a heart. His hair is blonde but has noticeably greyed somewhat.

Jaune raised his hand and greeted the man, "Hello, sir. I am indeed Jaune Arc. I presume Yang and Ruby have told you about me?"

Tai said, "They have. They also told me about the relationship they have with you. You're not even hiding that fact from me. I'm impressed you still decided to come here. You have guts, kid. I respect that."

He added, "I will allow this relationship because I saw how happy and Yang are talking about you. I haven't seen them this happy since Summer. Forcing them to break up with you would only drive a wedge in our relationship. I don't want that. But if I found out you hurt them physically or emotionally, I will show you what a father can do."

He continued, "Well, I have things to do around the house and head out to buy the necessary supplies. I'll leave things up to you. Have fun."

Jaune was smiling. He said, "This was new. I thought I would end up fighting him like the others. He's quite the father."

Ruby chuckled and said, "Isn't he great!"

Yang asked, "So, Jaune, what do you want to do for today?"

Jaune thought momentarily, but this was the first time he had been to Patch. He said, "I don't know. Is there anything to do at Patch?"

Yang said, "Nope! The only place we could go is Signal Academy. But there is nothing to do there. How about we head to Vale? We could go around the shopping district, play at the arcade, and watch a movie."

Ruby added, "Like a date!"

Jaune laughed. He said, "That's fun, but don't tell Nora this is a date. She got first dibs."

Ruby posed, thinking, and said, "Then let's not call it a date. Let's call it a friends outing!"

Yang said, "If we are heading to Vale, we only have a few minutes before the bullhead leaves. We better hurry."

Jaune grabbed the shoulder of Yang, who was heading to her room in a hurry to change. He said, "Did you forget how I got here?"

Yang realized. She did not have to hurry. Jaune could teleport them to Vale. She said, "Why didn't you say so? I'll go to my room and change."

While Yang was heading to her room, she heard Ruby say, "By the way, Jaune. Since when did you have Faunus ears?"

Yang stopped in her tracks and looked at Jaune's head. For sure, there were ears on top of his head.

Jaune replied, "Not long…." He then proceeded to explain the {Beast Takeover].

Ruby asked, "Can I touch it? Blake never lets me touch hers."

Jaune nodded and said, "Sure, I don't mind."

Ruby enjoyed Jaune's fox ears. Now that she was closer, she also noticed his eyes. She said, "Whoa! Your eyes are different too! Do you have night vision like Blake?"

Jaune said, "Yup!"

Ruby was playing with Jaune's ears when she said, "Can I touch it again later? I need to get changed as well. Don't want to head to Vale in my Pajamas."

Jaune said, "Sure, I don't mind."

Ruby said, "Yay!" before heading to her room.

Yang looked at Jaune and thought, 'I want to touch it too.' Before entering her room.
