Not imagining that it would start raining when he left home, Theo ended up not bringing an umbrella with him. And the money he had, he ended up spending it, so even if he's in a [Convenience Store] he didn't have the money to buy a new umbrella.

Theo: "I'm not going to wait, I'm going home and running." With that thought in mind, Theo starts running toward his house.

"Baruuum!"

But on the way to his house, he hears a loud thunder noise thunder coming from the sky.

"AHHHHH ..."

Theo: "W ... What? The ... The lightning struck my head?". But before he even knew what exactly had happened, he began to lose the senses of his body, and his eyes grew heavy.

Theo: "Stop licking me and let me sleep! Ah? Who's licking me? "

Opening his eyes, Theo was surprised, because in front of him was a (Fox) looking at him. And what surprised him most was that above the head of (Fox), there were some things written just like the MMORPG games he usually played.

[Red fox]

[1st Tier of the Apprentice Kingdom]

Theo: "... ?? Why are these things written on top of your head? Is this a dream?". He thought.

After trying to wake up, he gots frustrated because it did not work. He was still seeing the (Red fox).

Wanting to have a greater understanding of what was happening, he tries to get up. But then he noticed that he has no more (Human) legs and arms. He then began to look at his body and eventually noticed that he had four paws and a yellowish red coat, much like the (Red fox) that was near him, looking at him with affection.

Theo: "I really died? Was it not a dream? So I reincarnated as an animal?" He began to wonder, remembering that he had been struck by lightning, and came to a halt in this situation.

Theo: "I became a (Red fox)?" He asked himself with doubts.

The moment the (Red fox) noticed that Theo was well, she left the (Den) and after a while, she came back with a (Rabbit) in her mouth.

The (Red Fox) then headed towards Theo and left the (Rabbit) on Theo's side.

Theo: "She wants me to eat the (Rabbit)?" He wondered, seeing the (Rabbit) that was left in front of him by the (Red-fox).

He then noticed that he was very hungry, and he needed food! But he could not get used to the idea of ​​eating something raw...

Theo: "Now that I have become an animal, it is likely that I will only eat raw meat anyways. Now that things have come to this, I can only accept it." Seeing that things have come to this point and that his hunger was great, he has accepted his fate.

Theo approached the dead (Rabbit) on the ground. And he opened his mouth and began to nibble on the (Rabbit). Even while feeling repulsed, he continued to eat. Since he was very hungry right now.

Theo: "Mm, after eating a little, I see it's not as bad as I imagined ... this can only be because I'm not human anymore."

When he finished eating the whole (Rabbit) a transparent blue window appeared in front of him, very similar to the one on the head of the (Red fox).

[Skill Unlocked]

Devour: When using this ability, you can turn it into [Essence] or [System Point]

"Ah?"

Theo: "What is this crazy thing? Where did this blue screen come from? Is that a gaming system screen?" He had already thought about it, but seeing it appear, he began to believe that it really looks like a game screen.

He then began to wonder whether if while dying and reincarnating as (animal), he ended up obtaining a game system. He was so excited about this that he began to think it wouldn't have been that bad to have died.

"Can I see my status?" He thought.

The moment he thought of [Status]. A blue screen reappeared.

"Hahaha! It really worked!" Theo was very happy, seeing the [Status] bar that appeared. He didn't start jumping from joy at that moment because his body was still very weak and he was inside a narrow [Den].

Theo: "I'm on the same layer of cultivation as the (Red fox) that brought me the (Rabbit) ..." Theo thought after seeing his [Status].

Theo: "Ah?! I have an affinity with [Lightning] and [Darkness]? How do I use this?" Seeing that in his [Status] it said that he possessed an affinity with [Lightning] and [Darkness]. Theo moved his left paw towards the bar, where it said his affinities. The moment he did this, another information bar came up.

[Affinities: Beings that are born with affinities can form a magic core in the 4th Layer of the Apprentice Kingdom]

Theo: "Oh! So that's something I can use when I get to the 4th Tier of the Apprentice Kingdom." Even though he was very curious about everything that's happened to him, Theo decided to sleep since he felt tired and sleepy, and after waking up again, he thinks about what to do.

Theo: "Haa ~" While listening to the noise of nature and the birds singing, Theo woke up.

This time, when he woke up, Theo did not feel as weak as before. With a good night's sleep, he felt better. He then stands up, realizing that the (Red fox) was not in the [Den] and he decides to leave the [Den] too.

Leaving the [Den], Theo noticed that he was surrounded by gigantic trees, there were also many plants and flowers. Walking through the forest slowly and cautiously and after going past many trees ... Theo saw an open field and he saw that that field had many (Rabbits).

Above the heads of the (Rabbits), Theo noticed that they did not have the cultivation bar.

Theo: "They don't seem difficult to kill. Unlike when I looked at the (Red fox), towards these (rabbits), it doesn't say they have cultivation!" He thought.

Seeing that the (Rabbits) continue to nibble the bushes. Theo crouched in the bush and began to crawl towards 2 (Rabbits) that were not too far from him, getting close to the 2 (Rabbits). About 4 to 5 meters away ... the (Rabbits) ended up noticing him and began to run for their lives.

Seeing this, Theo started running after 2 (Rabbits). He was running awkwardly since he wasn't used to his current form.

Theo: "These (Rabbits) are fleeing too fast! And I'm not yet used to this body... " He thought.

After running for a long time behind the (Rabbits), Theo began to get a little used to his current form and managed to reach one (Rabbit). He ended up killing the (Rabbit) the moment he put his fangs on the neck of the (Rabbit). And soon he began to feel a taste of the rabbit's blood in his mouth.

Theo: "It does not look like I get exp killing..." He thought, while sad.

Theo: "Ah! I had gained the ability to devour. I'll test it on this (Rabbit)." He then recalled that he had gained this ability while he was eating the (Rabbit), which was given by the (Red fox). So decided to test it on that (Rabbits).

Saying "Devour" in his mind, Theo was able to use his ability.

Then, something far beyond his expectations happened... His tail grew and headed towards the (Rabbit) and expanded creating a large mouth. Looking at the mouth that was formed by his tail, Theo felt as if he were looking into an endless void and then without warning, it sucked the (Rabbit), leaving nothing behind of the existence of the (Rabbit).

Theo was suppressed by what had happened. It was then thrown to the back of his mind when his tail returned back to normal and in his mind he felt he had to make a choice, as if it was an instinct, saying that he had to choose between [Essence] or [System Points].

Thinking that essence might help increase his strength. He ended up choosing "Essence".

When he choose [Essence], Theo felt his strength grow a little. Even if it is was not a very large amount.

Theo: "W-Wow ... I did not expect to work like that!" Knowing that by choosing essence, it would increase his strength, it left Theo very happy because it meant he now had a way to strengthen himself.

And what made Theo happy was that the moment he used on the (Rabbit), his strength spent while hunting the (Rabbit) recovered a little, so he still had a lot of disposition to hunt more (Rabbits), and continue to strengthen himself.

When Theo caught (Rabbit) before, all the other (Rabbits) had stopped running, but when they realized that the (Rabbit) Theo had caught disappeared, they began to run desperately.

Theo: "Ah? Wait!!! Let me kill you!" He thought.

Theo then ran again with all his might towards the (Rabbits). This time, because he was more used to his body, it did not take long to catch another (Rabbit).
