As I am about to finish my rabbit, cat mom once again goes back to the tunnel. I don't need food, why are you getting another thing, water is also taken care of because of some of the larger puddles of water in the room.
I don't understand, whatever, I continued eating the rabbit and saw that my siblings were taking nibbles off the food. Jeez did you guys already grow in your teeth, how are you already eating meat this is like your first day after your birth.
I finish the entire rabbit corpse, I feel full and inspect my siblings eating the second rabbit corpse. These guys may look cute, but in the future you will grow up to be killing machines. I feel that within a week they will be able to grow up to their juvenile state if they keep growing at this rate.
Without the help of the system, I would still be an infant and I would have to wait years to grow up. I wouldn't be able to already evolve to my current state. Since I am already the third level, just two more and I can evolve once again. It was really easy at first now the experience needed is over ten times my previous evolution.
I wouldn't be surprised if I had to get hundreds or maybe a thousand for each level for my next evolution. This is my theory currently until I can get evidence from the system later. I am also intrigued at my CopyCat ability.
It allows me to take every single skill and the level of those skills from enemies I kill. If I need fire magic, I can kill something like a dragon that is able to use fire. If I need to learn something like a cultivation technique, I need to kill something that knows it.
Unlike every cultivator and mage who needs to go through years of training, I just need to kill someone who has years of training. This is pretty overpowered, I hope cat mom brings something back that has a bunch of useful skills, but it is still killable by me.
Hey I haven't checked my status screen in a while, I have just taken a ton of skills and leveled up, won't there be a massive change.

Combat Prowess: Reevaluating...
------------------------------
Oh, I thought I would gain more stat points per level since I have already evolved, but an extra three in each category is still pretty good.
Look, the system is baffled that I killed something an entire evolution ahead of me. Well, I did because it was crippled, but let's not mention that. What is this reevaluating? Must be trying to correct its mistake of looking down on me.
Now that I have magic, how do I use it since I have never really learned these skills myself and relied on the system instead. I need to practice magic, I still want to know how to cultivate myself, this is unfair.
I walk over to a spacious area in the room that is far from the corpses and my siblings so I don't injure them or destroy the food. I look away from their direction and face the wall to use as a target.
Hey system, how do I use magic?
------------------------------
Think of what form you want your mana to be, if you want to use fire magic, condense your mana inside your body and think of an image of fire and project it out from any part of your body. More experienced mages can form mana outside their body.
------------------------------
So I just need to think of acid or poison and just toss it out of my body? That seems easy enough right? I close my eyes and push aside all of my other thoughts and form an image of a liquid.
This is pretty easy, now I just need to condense my mana into the liquid. Wait, how do I condense mana, I don't even know what mana is or what it looks like. All I know is that I can use magic with it, but I don't know how to condense mana.
If you put mana in front of me, I wouldn't know what it is. I tried to search and find out what mana is, but the system gave no response. Why do you ignore me in times of crisis.
I frown and once again think of a liquid and try to search for anything weird in my body. I tried searching for a couple of minutes and was about to give up. Until I noticed something weird in an almost unnoticeable part of my mind.
It was something I never had in my previous life, when I paid more attention to this part of my mind, I felt weird and fuzzy. I felt a little light headed for just trying to see what this part of my head was.
I quickly shake my head and once again try to enter this part of my mind, but this time I am much more prepared. I was able to sense this part of my mind for a few more seconds, but it was quite a bit more than last time.
I should have known, my intelligence increases my mana capacity, so obviously the mana should be near my head, that's why I need to visualize and bring the mana from this part of my head to condense into what I need it to be.
Trying magic is like trying to create a sword for the first time. I know I'm an amateur at magic, but I know I'll get the hang of it later. I try going back to that part in my head with all of the mana and try to drag it to the front of my brain.
It feels like my head is on fire, my grasp on the mana releases and it slowly goes back to the separate compartment of my head. I was incredibly furious until I got a notification in my head.
------------------------------
(Mana Movement) [Passive]-Lv.1
------------------------------
I was very excited at this notification, more so than when I got my hands or shall I say paws on the Night Vision skill. I slowly calm myself down and once again close my eyes and enter the fuzzy part of my head and drag the mana to the front of my head.
This time I only drag a small part of it out instead of a lot like my last attempt. It was much easier, but still quite difficult to control. If I messed up, even if I were to sneeze, then all my hard work would be for nought.
After two minutes of trying to hear the small amount of mana like sheep to their pen. I finally brought it to the part of the brain where I think. I still have the image of the liquid that is similar to the frog's and bring the mana to the image.
After I dragged into the image, I tried molding it like molding a clay vase. Luckily I just needed it to be a blob of liquid and not something so complicated such as fire with so much detail needed. The Mana Manipulation skill was mentioned by the system to help during this molding process which helped me quite a lot.
I slowly, but surely finish molding it into the image I thought of and slowly bring the mana to condense to form the liquid. It was a long and arduous three minutes of bringing the mana together. I finished, the mana stayed in place and I let go of my control very slowly so my hard work goes down the drain.
I now have to expel it outside of my body, but how? Oh, maybe I move it from my head and to the mouth, it should be relatively close by. I moved my formed mana down to my mouth, I was still very careful.
I brought it out of my head, I felt a chill that went from my skull all the way down to the tip of my tail. I almost lost control, but luckily I managed to keep control and slowly brought it towards my mouth.
As I was getting to the mouth, I felt like I was being choked, I couldn't breathe, there was definitely something inside my throat. I was coughing uncontrollably, I felt like the thing was coming out of my mouth.
I coughed until I saw the liquid the frog used come out of my mouth. It worked I thought. It was launched from my mouth and onto the wall, it splattered everywhere. It was melting the wall at a very fast speed.
I did it! I actually used magic! As I was celebrating, I heard footsteps coming from the entrance of the tunnel, looks like cat mom is back, I wonder what she brought. This time, the footsteps are much heavier than what cat mom had.
I curiously looked over to see if she brought something big, but to my surprise it was something else. What the f*ck is that?
