Jaune Arc - Dreamscape

Chapter 21

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

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.
