150 Astral Kitten…

Dana had finished dressing Cai-Cai, and the snake was happily moving around. I have no idea what it was made of, but it wasn't getting dirty, and apparently, there were no problems for her to move on it. Cai-Cai curled on herself next to Dante and fell asleep.

Dana was looking at them falling sleep and came back to the table to see if there was something else. She took professor C's comic and started to look at it. It didn't take much time before she also fell asleep next to Dante and Cai-Cai.

In the meantime, I was looking at the other two prizes.

[Do you wish to use Random Pet Ticket?]

'Will the pet be bound to me in a pet contract if I say yes?'

[No, only certain people can make contracts, you usually can't, Dante is an exception]

Well, as far as I know, there is just one person that I know of, that can do that. And I had already decided to give her the accessory (boyfriend duty, pamper your girlfriend), I hope her luck is better than mine.

"Rose, use this two."

She took both tickets on her hand and looked at them.

"But… I already have a pet. And the accessory can be something useful for you."

"Not anyone can make pet contracts, probably you can have more than one pet bounded to you, if it doesn't work we can just take care of it together and hope it doesn't eat us in the future. About the accessory, I planned to give it to you since I saw the ticket so just take it."

She blushed a little, and with a smile on her face the first ticket was surrounded by light

After a second the light started to shrink, and a small silver ring appeared, the ring wasn't shiny, like if it was made by aged silver. It had 3 silver lines entangled and black round stone on it. I thought that it looked nice, a little dark but it had this mysterious appearance.

Rose looked at the ring with a broad smile.

She was about to slide it on her ring finger on the left hand when she paused and looked at me for a few seconds. I had no idea what this was about and tilted my head.

"You don't like it?"

"I love it, I just was about to use it on the wrong finger, then I started to think about if it really matters about which finger I use it on since even if we get married someday it's not like there is an official institution anymore, but it might appear again and…"

"Rose calm down…"

I took the ring and put it on the ring finger on her other hand.

"There is no use thinking about it right now, we leave it free just in case, but the most important it's that we are bound together forever anyway."

It's been a while since I have seen her that red, I could feel my face hotter too but tried to ignore it. She extended her finger to look at the ring on it.

"Beautiful."

I took her hand and planted a kiss on it. She giggled a little.

"Stop that tickles!"

She got her hand back.

"It's called Soul Ring, but there was nothing that said if it did something."

"It's probably a normal ring, remember the junk food? It was normal food, so probably this is probably is something normal too. Let see your new pet."

She nodded a little disappointed that the ring didn't have any effect and used the other ticket right away.

After the shine vanished something similar to a little black cat was sleeping in her arms. The tattoo of a white bunny appeared on her left hand a little higher on her arm a black paw appeared next to the bunny. On the little cat's forehead, a red rose was formed.

This time thanks to Aura view I could see both auras combining and leaving the imprint on each other.

"A black kitten? Can he go into the Astral Real with you?"

"I don't know, Paws is an Astral Midnight Panther, so he should be able to do it, but unlike Lucy, he is on the real world. Maybe he can astral travel like me…"

I nodded while looking the little panther. I petted what instead of a panther looked like a 3-4 months black kitten… I wonder how much time would it take for it to grow up, it would be great if Rose has Panther as a bodyguard.

"You called him Paws?"

"Yeah, great name, right? It's his tattoo, so he will definitely like it."

"Yeah…"

That naming sense… she looked at…Paws for a few second the looked at me with a guilty face.

"In the end, you didn't get anything from the box."

"It doesn't matter, now Isabella is an Esper too if she gets vital points view, it's going to help save a lot of lives, and when this little guy grows up you will have a strong pet to fight so its worth it."

"why don't you buy another ability?"

"I had to use too 300 points before, and I want to save enough for an E-Rank spin."

"How many more points you need?"

I took a drink of juice while checking my stats, I got the points from the mission and killing the man-bull, adding all the beast that I have killed, I shouldn't be that far.

[System Points: 647

Tickets: 1 F-Rank, 1 E(+)-Rank, Evolution ticket.]

I spit the juice from the surprise.

Cough* cough*

"The F**k?"

"What happened?"

I showed her the number and that I had a couple of extra tickets for some reason. She wasn't drinking anything, so she didn't have the same reaction as me.

I started to check the notification log to find the reason for them and found a couple of exciting things.

"Some random beasts dropped an extra besides the points, and that's how I got an F- Rank ticket and two skill points. The other two tickets came from achievements."

I found both achievements in between the killing spree during the battles.

[Achievement unlocked]

[Hunter

You have killed achieved a milestone in your fight against the beasts.

Kill 50 beasts

Rewards: 50 System Points, E(+)-Rank ticket]

[Great Hunter

You should leave some for the others

Kill 100 beasts

Rewards: 100 System Points, Evolution ticket]

I decided to use the evolution ticket first, Chronokinetic combat wasn't an option to evolve for some reason, so I used it on time bubble again. The only difference was that the third skill, this was called Shapeshifting Time Bubble, which allowed me to change its shape and I didn't need to be in the center as before. Only simple forms were permitted.

In the last fight I understood the huge setback of being by myself when I used Time bubble, so without thinking too much, I picked Enhanced Time bubble so I could choose to not affect my allies with it.

After the knowledge came to my head, I could hear a door opening.

Isabella had come back and was looking at everything with her eyes wide open.

"This is amazing…"

"I told you that it would literally change the way you see the world. How are you feeling?"

She turned towards me and looked at Rose and me with interest.

"This was what you meant with vital point view. From what I see I think that Rose is healthier than you."

I was glad that she really got that perk.

"Yes, I still have some wound to recover from, but I feel ok don't worry."

She nodded and gazed every part of Rose's and my body. It was a little disturbing.

"You should go to rest with Dana she has school tomorrow and the couch is not a good place to sleep, in your job you should be able to get used to it and understand it better, but don't overdue getting all that information is quite tiring so don't use it all the time."

"Thank you Spencer, I will be in your debt forever with all you have done for me, and don't worry your secret it's safe with me."

"I know… tomorrow at dinner we all will have to have a talk about the situation, there is a reunion I have to attend, and probably there are going to be some decisions to be made."

"Of course, I'll go rest, my head still hurts a little."

I helped her carry Dana back to their apartment and bid our farewells, Rose left the little panther with Dante and Cai-Cai before heading to our room.

I looked at the ceiling, with her head resting on my chest.

"Are you going to use the tickets then?"

"Yeah, the last fight showed me how weak I am."

Before using the tickets, I make sure about the decisions I made in the middle of the fight. The perks that I got were as I thought. Great impact allows me to exert more strength when I attack, but it came at the cost of the weapon durability…

Insight was for understanding abstract concepts way faster. And finally efficient body was to not waste movements and do everything in the best way possible, this was even when I run or dodge.

All of them were just as I expected, so they were going to help just as I wanted. The boost during the last fight was a lot more than I expected it to be, so I have to get used to it too. I have the tickets and also 13 skill points in total, I should just use everything and slowly get used to it the next day.

Less than an hour later after a painful process but that would have been worst without pain resistance, I was again with 0 skill points 0 tickets and back at 147 System points…
