The Fox Goddess

Chapter 164 Academy Wars



Princess Lian jolted up and looked at her teacher with widened eyes. She couldn't believe that her beloved teacher that she could even call mother would betray her like this.

"So what is it?" Yuki asked, and she then put Katsumi back in her seat.

"Is this good Katsumi?" Yuki pointed at the tea in front of her.

"Yeah Mom, it's very fragrant and has a mild flavour. Why don't you take a sip of it to know whether you will like it or not." Katsumi gave her thoughts.

"I'll taste it I guess." Yuki then poured herself some tea and began to drink it slowly.

"Not bad I guess, but I prefer wine." Yuki mumbles, she then shoots another look at the Princess waiting for her answer.

"I'm waiting." Yuki said again, Yuki this time has calmed down a bit after drinking some tea, so she can be easily talked to now.

Taking a deep breath first. After calming down herself Princess Lian looked at Yuki and answered.

"First of all, can you call me Lian other than Princess? I don't like people calling me that." Lian said.

"Fine." Yuki looked at her before stuffing her mouth with a cookie.

"Alright, would Miss Yuki like to join our faction in the scho-" Before Lian could finish her words, Yuki abruptly stood up and answered in a cold voice.

"I refuse."

"I'm not finished yet."

"No, I don't need to hear anymore, I would not like to be tied by someone and be her or his underling. Even if you give me some good benefits, there is no way I will join you." Yuki cuts her off.

"Please wait! Listen to what I will say first!" Lian stood up suddenly and held Yuki's hand.

Yuki didn't answer and only looked at the hand that was holding her.

"Oh, I'm sorry for my rudeness. But please listen to what I will have to say first." Lian asked.

"Fine." Both of them then sat back in their chair silently before Lian started her explanation.

"Thank you. The reason I wanted to invite you is because the Academy Wars is closing in, and with your power it will definitely make us stronger when we fight. Well, at least don't get last place again." Lian said with a sigh, Aria also sighed and her mood seemed to go down a bit when the Academy Wars was brought up.

"What do you mean last place?" Yuki asked, though she already had a guess.

"It's exactly what you think. We the Royal Beast Academy are always last in the Academy Wars which bring us shame every time" Aria explains.

"What? You guys are clearly strong, and you're in last place? What a joke." Yuki comments, clearly she was being arrogant on the matter but she is quite curious on why the Beast Race are last.

"No it's not a joke. Do you remember Andrew that you fought?" Lian suddenly asked.

"Yes, why?"

"You can consider Andrew an above average student in the Best Academy of the Humans." Lian dropped the bomb to Yuki.

"Are you serious?"

Yuki then began to seriously think about how strong the Humans are compared to the Beast.

"Then in the Royal Beast Academy, who is the only one that can beat Andrew." Yuki asked, but the answer left her silent.

"Only the Elites, those Elites are the best, and the worst part is we only number in 10." Lian clutches her dress and looks down.

Even Katsumi who was listening quietly was shocked to see how weak they actually are.

"Then tell me, how strong are our and the other Race Academy." Yuki asked.

"I guess to put it in simpler terms. Normal S Class Adventure can be a normal student at the Academy, and the Strongest S Class can be called Elite. As for the SS Class strength is equivalent to our best student which is only 10, and please remember Miss Yuki that the strength of the elite is equivalent to a mid level strength SS Class." Lian said.

"How about the other races, especially the Humans." Yuki questioned.

"They have the strength of the SSS Class, that is their best student, and their number is close to 20. As for the other Race it's quite the same, with the Dwarves being the second weakest." Lian answered with difficulty.

"What kind of situation is this? How in the hell did the Beast Race become so weak?" Yuki said in frustration, even though she was not really part of the Beast Race since she is a 'human' at first, Yuki is angered at the thought of being humiliated.

​ "That's because the winners of the Academy Rewards are given a reward from the Gods. That reward caused them to get so powerful, because that Academy will get a blessing from the Gods, and because the Beast Gods in the Mystic Heaven is disappointed at us, they didn't even give us anything."

Meanwhile Ayame, who was listening quietly on the other side, was extremely angered at the Beast Gods in the Mystic Heaven.

"Those arrogant guys, just because they don't want to lose face, they just left the Beast Race!" Ayame smashes the table in front of her.

She was also on the Beast Gods, even the highest one. Normally her powers are limited only to the Fox Race that she governs, but because she has the highest authority of the Beast Gods, she can also control the others anyway she wants.

Thinking about this, Ayame pondered if she should join the Mystic Heavens Academy Wars, since it only happens every 100 years.

"Then, you expect me to go out there and help you fight those guys? F*ck no! You said it yourself that they are strong, how do you expect only a Demonic Beast to help you?" Yuki slammed her hand at the table as she now understood Lian's intention.

"Please be rational, the Academy Wars is still 1 year away, because the first battle is going to be the Sect battle that will take place in 6 months from now." Lian said and continued.

"This means you can still build up your strength, please Miss Yuki. I beg you to join us. I'm not doing this as the Princess, but as a fellow Beast." Lian stood up and lowered her head at Yuki.

When Yuki looked at Lian, she can see an absolute determination in those eyes that, she will be able to help them.

"What made you so sure that I can help you there?" Yuki asked.

"It was just a feeling, when I saw you fight, I thought I was seeing a legend for some reason." Lian looked up and met Yuki's eyes.

Suddenly Aria also spoke up.

"Actually Yuki, this is also the favour that me and Rory would like to do. So please can you help us?" Aria also pleads, she even used the promise that Yuki made with them when they helped Yuki recover.

"What?" Yuki was shocked.

"F*cking hell. Fine, But I have three conditions!" Yuki raised her three fingers.

"Sure, as long as we can do it!" Lian said happily, she was ecstatic that she made Yuki join.

"Firstly I want to fight solo, meaning I don't want to take any orders from you, or you can treat me as a substitute. I'm sorry but this is what I want, there's no way to change my mind." Yuki said.

"What do you mean by that?" Lian asked confusedly.

"Just like what I said, I want to fight solo. You can cooperate as much as you want but don't drag me there, or you can send me last. I'm assuming that since there are a lot of fighters, not a lot will fight all at once. But of course don't worry, I will still help you even if I'm not in the group, I will just go solo, as I don't want anyone to drag me behind." Yuki explains.

At first Lian wanted to refuse, but after hearing Yuki's words she sighed in relief and agreed.

"Second, I will take my daughters with me." Yuki said.

"Of course! I accept that." Lian shouted, it was not even a choice for her. Who wouldn't want those two that have been trained by the two legendary figures of the Beast Race.

"Lastly, let me join the Sect Wars." Yuki smirked, she then began to remember all those things that happened because of a single sect that almost cost Yumie's life.

Yuki will never forget that.
