Jaune Arc.

The next heir to a blood line full of successful monster hunters. He has heard tales of how his grandparents went toe to toe with rabid beast of all sorts, cryptids sought out to be just mere legends, and what terrors truly go bump in the night.

Whenever he heard one of these stories, he'd always play it as if he himself was hunting down the ferocious monster he'd wish he could vanquish. But he wasn't a kid anymore, but now a (semi) trained hunter. He left his home, leaving only a mere note behind for his family on his track to lead on their legacy.

A sword and shield on his person, and a bunny sweater from his grandma underneath his armor, he was ready to become the next legendary Arc in history! And nothing, and he means NOTHING, will stop him from doing so!

Jaune: ...what?

Wraith!Ruby: *somehow got captured by Jaune's most basic pit trap* ...

Jaune: Wow...uhm.

Wraith!Ruby: What?! Didn't think I'd go down just like that?! Cuz this is all part of my plan to end you, just you wait till I-

Jaune: N-No. Not that. Just didn't think I would be face to face with such a...beautiful sight? M-My name's Jaune by the way...

What is even going on...

Wraith!Ruby: Uh, Ruby? Wait...You think I'm beautiful?

~ Wraith was added to the hunting party! ~

Okay so maybe this was a blunder, but at least he's the first of his lineage to actual befriend a monster! That's something, right? Totally not making him a disgrace to his family.

Hopefully this is the only time though! As he must vanquish a monster far more dangerous now that he has the help of a supernatural being such as Ruby!

???: HOOOWL~!

Jaune: Oh, I guess we're tracking down a were wolf now.

Wraith!Ruby: Oh! Maybe we're gonna meet my sister too!

Jaune: I'm sorry, you're who?

Jaune:

Wraith!Ruby:

Werewolf!Yang: *snuggling up to Jaune's arm while her tail wags*

Wraith!Ruby: How-

Jaune: In my defense! She had me pinned down!

Wraith!Ruby: That still doesn't explain what happened between that altercation when I was trying to find you!

Jaune: I may have...made a slight joke on seeing two full moons...

Wraith!Ruby: Oh...oh god no.

Jaune: How was I suppose to know that was all it took for her to fall for me?!

Wraith!Ruby: FALL FOR YOU?!

Werewolf!Yang: Soo, wanna share him Rubes?

Wraith!Ruby: >:O *How holding onto Jaune's other arm* LIKE HELL I WILL!

Jaune: I think I'm already in hell...

(Continuation of this post)

When we last left off with Jaune, he was on a journey to continue his family's tradition on becoming, a Monster Hunter! And so far, his journey has been...unsuccessful to say the least. Albeit, he has faced two types of monsters, but has not slain them. More like, tamed them in a way?

Jaune: LIKE I HAD A CHOICE!

Right...anywho~! Let's see if Jaune's luck with any other monsters prove to be fruitful towards his goal of making his ancestors proud! Now, with two companions, a wraith girl and a female werewolf, his band of allies can't possibly fail against further foes!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In a snowy and frozen ridden forest, our hero (and co) was fighting for their lives against a group of ghouls that have sprung from beneath the cold layer of white. Jaune managed to slice through a couple however was in a intense sword fighting session with another, who had their own weapon for a fair fight.

Meanwhile, Ruby and Yang we're busy trying not to be surrounded by a horde of the undead, with Yang using her claws to dig deep in their weak spots, hoping they stayed dead. As for Ruby, she used her ghostly appearance to get behind a few and forcibly snap their necks or dig out their entrails and brains.

As seemed lost for the three as the ghouls didn't let up the assault, until a harsh wind blew through the forest, with Yang, Ruby, and Jaune taking its random occurrence to flee from the fight and hide behind a large boulder. Surprisingly, none of the ghouls followed them, with Jaune peeking from behind their cover, seeing them all frozen solid. As Jaune was perplexed before he saw a figure come from beyond the snow, it was a woman, with dirty white hair and...bare above her waist. Her fingernails were like claws as she showed a row of razor-sharp teeth. She took a look at Jaune, and a look at the bodies of the frozen ghouls, with some being dismembered still on the snow bed, blood staining it red. She took a nice whiff of the stench of foul meat and then ran up to Jaune, sniffing him.

Mahaha!Weiss: Mmm~. You're strong~.

Jaune: S-Stay back! I won't hesitate to take another one of you ou-

Mahaha!Weiss: I shall claim you as mine!

Jaune: I WILL NOT BE YOUR NEXT MEAL! Mahaha!Weiss: My new husband!

Jaune: Wait What?

Mahaha!Weiss: Eh?!

Wraith!Ruby: Oh, she's pretty! I take dibs on her~!

Werewolf!Yang: Then that leaves me and the monster 'layer', ey Jaune~?

: Hey, it's been almost a ye-

Crazie: I KNOW, I KNOW! JUST- LEMME GET THIS BALL A ROLLING

~ ~ ~ (Continuation of these two posts: 1 - 2) ~ ~ ~

The tale last left off with Jaune and his harem group of monster girls growing in numbers. First, the naive yet skilled Wraith Ruby, who met Jaune after a very accidental skilled trap she fell for. Then after joining him as his partner to help him hunt...and partner in general, they met with her sister Yang. A fearless werewolf who's one to have a loose anger problem, when some poor fool touches her fur. The poor fool being Jaune, who attempted to groom her once, then found his head in a tree stump right after. And finally, the trio meets Weiss, the Mahaha. A being bonded by the cold, able to freeze any unfortunate travelers or hunters with ease. It was only thanks to Jaune's courage, fighting spirit, and somewhat good looks, that wooed her to spare his life...if he became her husband.

So that only leaves the question of; what do our brave adventurers head to next?

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Jaune and his group traverse the rigid path up in the mountains, where they learned of a beast living upon them. The villagers tell tales of a humanoid creature, with features of a cat, and how they're a powerful being, able to use magic to transform into anything they wish to be, or even bring back the dead, halting the flow of life itself.

Truly, a beast that needs slaying you'd think, and Jaune agrees as well. After much gratitude and assurance that this beast would definitely befall his sword, Jaune and his group of Monster hunting monsters went on their way to go and take on such a foe.

Hopefully this time, there won't be any hiccups along the way that'll possibly make Jaune spare the creature this time. No less, have it been swooned to fall for him, even if he wants the opposite. But as the old saying goes, fourth times the charm! Usually it's third but, well Weiss exists.

Jaune: ...

Wraith!Ruby: ...

Mahaha!Weiss: ...

Werewolf!Yang: ...hot.

Nekomata!Blake: *Currently reading something while snickering to herself, a fishtail sticking from her mouth as she gleefully chewed on the rest of its body.*

Jaune: *Whispering* Has she even noticed us?

Wraith!Ruby: *Whispering back* I really don't know.

Mahaha!Weiss: Maybe we could try and take her out now?

Werewolf!Yang: Just say the word.

Nekomata!Blake: You know you guys suck at this, hunting thing, right?

JRWY: ...

Nekomata!Blake: Lemme guess, villagers sent you here and said I was performing acts against their Gods or whatever?

Jaune: Uh...yeah?

Nekomata!Blake: Oh for- THIS IS THE FOURTH TIME! Just because I'm a Nekomata, doesn't mean I like to do that all the time! I got hobbies and stuff to keep me busy besides raising the dead!

Mahaha!Weiss: D-Do they usually do this?

Nekomata!Blake: Was the person you sent you here someone named Adam, per chance?

Jaune: Yeah...how'd you-

Nekomata!Blake: Long story short, he had a thing for me. I didn't for him. So, he's throwing dirt all over my name. Crazy right?

Wraith!Ruby: Ohhh, yeah that's completely messed up.

Nekomata!Blake: Mhm. But doesn't bother me, never really like guys in general.

Jaune: Oh, thank God.

Nekomata!Blake: Women however...*turns to Yang and bites her lip* How bout it doggy~?

Werewolf!Yang: Hehe, what's new with you pussycat~?

Mahaha!Weiss: I'm out! I'm gonna go turn that Adam person into a popsicle, if he doesn't pay us.

Jaune: Usually I'd stop you but go ahead. Matter of fact, wait up.

Wraith!Ruby: Have fun sis! We'll be waiting at the village.

Werewolf!Yang: Don't wait up! So lil kitty, care to teach me some magic?
