Ever since the apocalypse began, the world's living creatures were no longer just humans and animals.
Instead, there were humans, animals, and mutant beasts.
Mutant beasts looked a bit stranger than animals, but of course, some mutant beasts looked just like normal animals. The line between the two wasn't very clear.
But humans didn't need to make a special effort to tell them apart, because the most obvious difference was that mutant beasts actively attacked humans.
It was as if mutant beasts and humans were natural-born enemies, with no possibility of reconciliation.
That was why everyone who saw Tang Mo's fox assumed it was just an animal, not a mutant beast.
The idea of Tang Mo forming a contract with a mutant beast seemed utterly absurd. She was just a Space System user, after all.
As for the truth—a mutant beast willingly approaching a human—that was a possibility they had never even considered.
And Tang Mo had no intention of explaining.
