Hours passed inside the cave and Alex kept crying.
During those hours no monster appeared, since the place was the territory of the striped Cat, at some point in Alex's laments, he equipped the black necklace with a purple line in the middle, the necklace generated a bit of tranquility in Alex after equipping it, but Alex still remained in a weak status of mind.
After Alex stopped crying, he could see the change in his body, stopped being a gray cat and turned into a black one with two purple stripes that start in his amethyst eyes and reach his hind legs, all because of the baptism of drink the milk that chains the changes in him.
Alex also got two skills with the baptism, [Silent Steps] and [Charge], the skills characteristic of his race, silent and deadly, a beast that attacks from the dark at an amazing speed and the victim can only see purple stripes before die.
Alex moved through the dungeons of the dungeon at a rapid pace in search of food, until he detected the smell of the rats and began to follow them, he did not take long to find them, two rats that are exploring for food or water as seen by their malnourished appearance.
Alex understood the use of his new abilities at the moment he obtained them, he crouched when he was close to the rats, began to gather strength in his hind legs, shortly after going out like a bullet towards the rats, Alex came to on one side of the rats in an instant, Alex quickly opened his mouth and threw a bite at one of the rats.
* Puchi! *
This time Alex did not retain his strength and plucked a large piece of the rat, Alex made a loud sound as he swallowed the piece of meat in his mouth, not wanting Alex's action to unleash the Intimidate ability on the other rat and is paralyzed fear, with little resistance, Alex ended the life of the other rat with a bite in the head.
Alex's eyes began to generate a feeling of savagery like the other beasts of the dungeon.
Alex began to hunt as many rats as possible and ate them before they could explode in smoke.
While he was hunting, he found some stairs leading up, but the road is completely blocked by large debris, at first it caught his attention, but his feeling of emptiness made him move forward in search of more food.
Shortly after a few hours and several fights where Alex fought recklessly, he managed to return by pure luck, to the safe room, but for another entry, he went over to drink water to just take a break and then continue eating, but when he looked his reflection, he was stunned to see his reflection in the water.
He could see the reflection of himself and could see his eyes that had stopped being amethyst and were now a blood-red color, he was scared to see those inhuman eyes and full of savagery, they were like those of a crazed beast, they were, because as soon as Alex realized this, his mind began to clear and he realized that he was not the same.
[The User has been released from the mind control imposed by the Dungeon, the ability [Minor Mental Resistance] has been gained, the WILL statistic changes from E to D]
Alex sat on the shore of the lake with his wounds, which began to burn once he regained his rationality.
Alex approached the water pond while holding a leg raised by the stabbing pain he feels while walking, little by little he approached the pond and managed to drink a little of the water to quench his thirst, but as soon as he did, a feeling of Warmth surrounded his body and the wounds on his body that were causing an unbearable burning, began to heal at an amazing speed and without leaving any trace on his small body.
Although Alex had the necklace, the protective aura was over after many fights in which he was not cautious and was allowed to kill himself [Possibly it was the Dungeon trying to make him kill himself], which caused the necklace to be spent as water on An arid desert
Alex was allowed to soak in the pond, which caused the feeling of warmth to increase throughout his body.
While Alex let the pond heal him, he removed any trace of darkness in his feelings, accepting that he is now a Striped cat and was previously a human named Alex.
10 minutes later...
He came out of the pond all soaked and as a reflection, he dried himself with his tongue and while doing so, Alex was more and more surprised by his high flexibility of his body, once he dried himself completely, his body was dominated by the feeling of tiredness, but Alex managed to stay awake for a few more minutes in which he spent all the Ps and Pm he got today.
Alex used half of his Ps [5] to update his strength to rank D, while the other half improved his agility to C and with 18 MP, he improved his claws four times [-16MP] and improved his teeth twice with the last points, enduring the pain of the update, he opened his status and saw the changes in it.

[//////////////////////////]
Alex look at his status with happiness, seeing the small changes in him make him feel satisfied but the feeling of fatigue from so many fights began to be stronger in him and being so full of food, it does not help that his drowsiness increases, dominated from sleep, Alex lay down on the light bluegrasses that surround the pond and began to sleep while being rocked by air currents inside the dungeon.

Year X107, day 4 of the fourth month.
...
A group of adventurers under my care have located what I can believe is the entrance of a Dungeon outside the Pinsofter Village, the problem is that the entrance is blocked by large rock debris, which was possibly demolished by the combat between the Infernal Dragon and Giant Mabeus.
The combat was for reasons of territory between the two great beasts, in the end, the Infernal Dragon emerged victoriously with little effort, but the aftermath of his combat caused great tremors in our dear and glorious Magster Kingdom, possibly at that time caused the collapse of the Dungeon entrance.
Right now we are regulating the traffic of people who can go to Pinsofter so that there is no information leak about the new Virgin Dungeon, which can reach the other Kingdoms.
This is the matter for which I am asking for an adequate group of specialized magicians in Golems to keep the safe place, although perhaps it is more than enough with my men, but there is a possibility that large quantities of Irocle can be found within the dungeon for the small amounts that were in the collapsed rocks at the entrance of the dungeon, only at the entrance, my men extracted 50g of Irocle, imagine what we can find deep in the new Dungeon.
Those are all the events that happened until the moment I write this letter and sent it to you with the help of my Magician, I hope and agree with me my Highness [Rudolf III Scales Mirclek].
Sincerely, Count Artpe Sokrethus.
At the end of the letter, there is the seal of the Sokrethus family, which is a shield with two small wings with the letters S and K on the shield.
