Qin Hua licked her lips, staring at the status window.

She was still unable to believe that she had received so many experience points and somehow leveled up.

It was definitely because of her contribution in killing the mana zombie but after thinking a lot Qin Hua came to another conclusion as well.

It was possible that she had landed the last attack in the fight against the mana zombie.

Even though her small body had been flung aside mercilessly, her leech bite might have still been active and taken the last bits of the mana zombie's life. Not that the thing was alive in the first place.

This was the only explanation that she could come up with and it was definitely worth exploring as she could amass a lot of experience points in this way.

[Arghh! So confusing! If only I had played some games instead of studying all the time!!!]

[Ok, let's put that aside for now.] Her gaze then swept past her experience bar and gazed at her upgraded attributes.

[Waaah! All my attributes are higher!]

[Wait a minute. They are higher alright, but when compared to these guys…?]

Qin Hua couldn't help but wonder how her improved stats compared with the four humans surrounding her and well, also the cat.

As someone who liked to be prepared for things in advance, she wanted a rough estimate to be able to better gauge her strength.

Otherwise, in the next battle, which they would inevitably be fighting in, she wouldn't be able to contribute properly to the fullest of her abilities.

And this could be the difference between her entire group's life and death!

[Too bad this leech bite skill did not upgrade after that fight. That is definitely the best skill I have right now.]

[Can I upgrade it by biting these guys? Nyaa… Too risky. I don't understand the skill well enough to do that.]

[It looks like I need an actual enemy, otherwise, I won't be able to activate the skill and level it.]

[Huff. Alright. Let's put this matter aside.]

She narrowed her eyes and continued staring at the screen. Another glaring issue was her mana attribute.

At first, the passive Beastial Mana absorption looked good, but now Qin Hua didn't like it as much.

Though this means that with every single day she gains an additional mana attribute, it was simply too slow!

Moreover, other beasts would also be getting stronger and stronger in the meantime.

[Fuu! Ok, let's not think about this too for now. None of my skills consume mana yet and I don't have any spells. So it should be ok for now.]

[Hmm… Does this 'Blending into darkness' skill cost mana?]

[Waaah! Why is everything so difficult!!!]

Qin Hua rubbed her small furry head on the couch cushion. Too many questions and not enough answers. She was going crazy.

[Aish. I should calm down and figure out things one by one.]

As she closed her status screen, various thoughts running inside her brain, another couple of notifications popped up in front of her.

<Congratulations. Shop feature is now available>

<Congratulations. 15 stat points have been rewarded>

<Congratulations. 5 skill points have been rewarded>

Woof! Woof! Qin Hua did not expect this and almost jumped out of the couch in shock.

[More notifications?]

[What is this shop thing? Can I buy some super treasures???]

[Damn. Open up. Open up. Open up. Quick.]

Obeying her command, a big translucent blue window popped up in front of her. However, it was mostly grayed out, save for two slots.

[What the heck? This gray thing means I can't buy all this stuff?]

Qin Hua sighed in disappointment, but her ears quickly perked up as she eyed the two slots that were actually available to her right now.

[Inspect] - Cost: 2 Skill points; Allows the user to obtain information about an object, both animate and inanimate; Can be leveled up for upgrades.

[Space vault] - Cost: 10 Skill points; A dimensional magic spell that enables the user to store various items; Can be leveled up for upgrades.

[So good!!! Both these skills are too good!] She licked her lips in excitement. [They are expensive though. I have only 5 skill points now. How do I get more?]

[Hmm… And what are these stat points?]

<Ding. Skill points are awarded with each level increase beginning from Level 5; These can be used to purchase more skills from the shop feature; They can also be used to improve the existing skills>

<Ding. Stat points are awarded with each level increase beginning from Level 5; These can be added to various attributes to improve them>

Woof! Woof!

[So this system was an interactive one from the very beginning? Aish. Alright. Let me first purchase the Inspect skill.]
