Chapter 2: Beginning of a new life

 

 

When I woke up, I was confused.

Wasn't I supposed to be dead?

How was I alive after being stabbed?

But when I tried to feel my body, it felt vastly different than normal.

'What the hell is going on?' I thought in confusion.

I couldn't see my current body because it was too dark in the environment where I currently was.

The terrain felt rocky and it seemed to be a cave, which further confused me, because why would I wake up in a dark cave after being stabbed.

Suddenly I became really sleepy and couldn't stop my eyes from closing.

The next day or at least I thought so, I was woken up by something wet licking me.

I slowly opened my eyes to see what was going on and when I saw what was licking my face I was stunned.

'Isn't this a tiger cub?' I thought.

'And why is it licking me?' I further wondered.

[Tiger cub]

[No cultivation]

Huh what is this. It looks like an RPG game screen, but what is this.

'No! Wait, it can't be, right? Did I get reincarnated with a system!?' I suddenly thought after seeing this screen.

'I need to first understand what body I have now and where I am. I can think about whether this is a system or not later.' I quickly interrupted my previous thought process.

'Ah now that there is light, I would also be able to see my own body' I realized and directly turned my head to look at my arms and body.

What I saw would have made me scream out in surprise if I was still a human, which after seeing my body I realized, that I wasn't anymore.

I looked at where formerly my arms were located and instead of arms and legs there were paws with sharp claws at the end of each one.

I also had a black fur with white stripes. I had to say that it looked quite majestic in my opinion.

After carefully inspecting my body, I came to the conclusion that I was somehow reincarnated as a Black Tiger cub.

When I looked at myself, the screen also appeared in my vision and showed this:

[Black Tiger Cub]

[No cultivation]

After seeing this I was not really surprised since I had already seen that my fur was mostly black previously so I had guessed that there would be written "Black Tiger".

But one thing that I had also previously overlooked when I was looking at the information of the tiger in front of me, was the fact, that there was written "No cultivation".

'Haha! This should mean that I was reincarnated into a cultivation world. If I am able to cultivate, then I will surely be able to someday reach a height where I can possibly return to earth and validate my promise to Megan that I will find a way to meet her again. And maybe this System or whatever it is will help me cheat so I can become stronger faster, haha!' I directly thought after discovering this detail.

After this I turned my attention to the tiger cub in front of me.

After the Tiger cub finished licking me it pointed its head to the side at a dead animal that I could not fully recognize, but it seemed to be a mixture of a small rabbit and deer. Just when I was looking at the animal, I felt that I was really hungry, but I was really feeling repulsed from eating raw meat, since I had always had cooked meat when I was still human.

Still, I chose to steel my resolve, because in the future I would probably often need to eat raw meat as I am now an animal.

I moved my head towards the corpse lying on the ground and nimbly bit down with my small sharp teeth.

Even though the feeling of biting into the skin of the corpse was everything else than pleasant, I still continued, because of my great hunger.

After a while I had finished eating the whole corpse and silently thought: 'It does not taste as bad as I thought it would, it seems that due to me being a tiger now, my taste receptors are also used to the taste of raw meat.

Just when I had finished eating the whole animal, a transparent blue screen again appeared in my vision.

[Skill <Black hole> Unlocked]

___

Black hole: When using this skill, you can form a black hole and whatever is being sucked in it will become essence energy. The size of the created Black Hole depends on your strength.

You can choose to either absorb the essence to increase your strength or transform it into system points.

"What!"

'What is this? It's the same screen as before just with different content. I think that I can confirm with this that I have a system now. Hahaha!' I thought after seeing the transparent screen appear again.

'Now then let's look at the information displayed there.' I decided after calming down from the happiness that I have a system now.

'Wow! That skill "Black hole" seems crazy overpowered, but I like it, hahaha!'

'Wait let's try if I can see my "Status" like in those novels.'

'Status' I spoke out in my mind.

And directly when I thought of the word status, the screen appeared in my vision again with my information.

Name: Thiago Khan

Breed: Black Tiger

Species: Animal

Cultivation: /

___

System points:/

Affinities

Darkness

___

Skills

<Black Hole> Level 1

'Hahah! Yes, it worked!' I happily thought after seeing the screen appear with my status in front of me.

'Hmm, I have an affinity with darkness, that is probably because of the black hole skill. It's a bit unlucky that I have only one affinity, but who cares I got an overpowered skill instead.' I mused.

'Wait how do I use the affinity?' I questioned inwardly and brought my paw towards the bar where the affinity was listed and then new information appeared on the screen.

[Affinities: All creatures that are born with an affinity can form a magic core in the 5th tier of the novice realm and therefore use their affinities.]

'Ah, so it's like that, then I have to wait for a short while till I can try out my affinity.' I thought after seeing this explanation.

After seeing that I had no cultivation yet, I was already making plans to later go hunting some small animals and then suck them in my black hole to get their essence and thus increasing my strength.

'And what can I do with the system points?' I questioned inwardly after seeing system points being mentioned again.

After I thought this, a new message appeared on the screen

[System points can be used to buy various things in the still locked system shop.]

'Ah, that was kind of obvious, but still, it is good to get confirmation.' I thought.

'Do you have any other functions?' I asked in my mind.

Alas, I got no answer from the system, it seemed that I had to find out by myself or there were just no other functions which could also be a possibility.
