The struggle for conquest and survival begins

Several shadows began to move throughout the forest in different or same directions, but all with the same intention.

This caused the environment in the forest to become heavier and that all beasts or weak animals began to hide in their hiding places by not wanting to enter the conflict that is about to begin.

While some other individuals look at the moment as their only opportunity to grow and stop hiding.

Alex, who detected the change in the environment, stopped doing whatever he was doing and began to pay close attention to his surroundings, which began to stop feeling safe for him.

Alex felt an invading presence in his territory and could see it on the mini-map as it moved at an amazing speed towards its location, the intruder was not marked as neutral or friendly, but as someone hostile.

Alex didn't sit idly by and wait for his guest, but he went to visit him to give him a good "welcome", so Alex moved towards his guest at a moderately high speed.

The shadow was surprised to feel Alex's proximity through the aura, the shadow never released his aura to be able to hide and make a surprise attack, but now his prey comes towards him with total precision, feeling the danger, the shadow was cast to the side where the feeling of danger invaded its body.

*Explosion!* Something fell from above in the place where the shadow was and now it raises a small curtain of earth- *Slap!* Without time to react, the shadow was slapped in the face by a black tail, the blow caused the shadow could taste its blood.

"Grrg!!" The shadow growled at the humiliation and pain it is receiving, the round pupils of the shadow became sharp as a pin while paying full attention to its 'prey'.

"Nya?... Nyaaah!!" When the smoke became clear enough to see inside it, the shadow could finally see a black cat sitting in front of him, the moment they both looked at each other, they both reacted.

<Tiger?... Deranged bastard!!> Alex was surprised to see his invader and showed it by tilting his head a little, but there was also anger inside Alex's eyes which he tried to suppress and failed miserably when around him began to get distorted by the heat he began to expire.

Meanwhile, the Tiger also began to get angry when he realized what happened; the little kitten he had left half dead before, right now he dared to hit it in the face with his tail.

The tiger released its entire mana in its body while using its magic as it launched itself at Alex with its claws ready to pierce his body.

When the tiger launched itself at Alex, the tiger releases its claws which were surrounded by mana and took the form of white blades that cover more space, the tiger approached in an instant with its claws to nothing to pierce Alex's chest, but When the claws were about to pierce Alex's flesh, two black objects shot out from the ground and pierced the body of the tiger thus lifting it and preventing it from hurting Alex.

"Ghgk!" The tiger let out a groan when it was lifted by two black needles, but it broke free easily by placing its feet on the needles and freeing itself with a jump, it was able to free itself easily since the needles only managed to pierce its body half an inch thanks to its magic and robust skin that it got thanks to its 'master' some days ago.

"Graouagh!!" The tiger growled when it felt the pain of the two pangs it received and now they are bleeding, these wounds created two lines of blood that start from the shoulders to the chest, although the wound is late and bleeding, it is nothing for which it has suffered before

"Ghgrr!" Alex responded with another growl full of anger.

Alex was not satisfied to be able to hurt the tiger by an oversight of the latter, so he decided to continue hitting him to be able to free once and for all this anger that has been consuming him by remembering how he felt when he was completely defeated without being able to do any.

Alex launched himself at the tiger while the latter tried to move away from the abysmal heat that surrounds Alex and is consuming its magical defense, seeing the actions of the tiger, Alex jumped into the air.

"Niaagh!! [Swallows this fire!!]" Alex inflated his chest for a short time after throwing a powerful golden flare which covered a great distance.

That flame seemed to consume the tiger, but it managed to escape by directing its mana towards its legs to get away, Alex knew that he didn't burn it for not getting notification of the system and still being able to see a red dot on his mini-map.

<Tch!... I can do that too!> Alex's mana stopped releasing heat when he followed Alex's command to improve his legs.

This was something that Alex discovered when trying to reinforce his claws with his mana, by mistake, Alex directed his neutral mana towards his legs and not the claws, which made him have a greater force and speed, this made Alex discover the [Reinforcement] ability, something he thought he could not learn, since he deceived himself in thinking that way and ignored the nature of that ability, which is just using the neutral mana to reinforce oneself.

But, although he manages to copy the effects of the skill, he has not yet achieved it according to the system, apart from that he has a terrible control when strengthening his body, since he hurts himself by overstimulating his muscles or tendons, but thanks to his great determination and healing magic is that he has managed to replicate it, something worthy of someone who desires the Force.

As soon as Alex touched the ground, his figure became blurred as he moved from one place to another, due to the lack of control, Alex has difficulties in measuring the mana he needs, which causes him to move too much when giving a passed.

The tiger was surprised at not being able to keep up with Alex, although he can improve his agility to the rank [★ - D], his original agility is [S] and Alex is moving at the speed of someone of rank [★ - E], even for Alex it is difficult to move in that range because he can't distinguish his surroundings very well, but he managed to overcome that threshold by using his ears and whiskers... yes, whiskers.

*Pum!* Distracted by surprise, the tiger was hit on the side by one of Alex's hind legs.

"Ghrhg!" The blow hurt the tiger as Alex managed to break the tiger's defense with his kick and the blunt blow did internal damage to the tiger.

Alex didn't stop after kicking the tiger but instead followed him closely, but being in a lower range in speed, he failed to reach him again.

The figures of Alex and the tiger became two shadows as they moved at high speeds from one place to another when trying to hit the other with their claws or magic.

The environment began to become chaos with the trees being destroyed and the ground dented from impacts.

"MIAH! [I had enough to play!]" Alex stopped chasing the tiger shortly after creating a giant ring of fire which surrounds him and then expands like an expansive wave, but of fire.

"Grooah!" The tiger made a super roar with which it canceled Alex's magic by causing him to lose control over his magic.

They both looked at each other and began to walk in a circle while looking for an opening to exploit it.

Suddenly a sense of danger surrounded Alex's neck and by reflection, he created a shield behind him to avoid any attack.

*Pack!* Something invisible hit the shield and left a deep cut as if it had been made by a blade.

The tiger and Alex turned to see a new threat, hidden among the trees and bushes, a silver wolf stands on its four legs while looking back.

The wolf is almost completely silver except for two light green spots on his shoulders and his black claws, the wolf was surrounded by some light green spirits, an element that Alex doesn't know, but it didn't hesitate to face it.

Not forgetting the tiger, Alex moved away from it while defending himself with some needles for the surprise attack of the tiger tried to do when it saw Alex distracted by something.

Alex looked forward to both enemies, one who has already defeated him and another completely unknown with equally unknown skills.

*Swiishh!* The sound of the wind became louder while at the same time the light green spirits around the wolf began to dance around him, while Alex also managed to hear the sound of something moving at high speed through the air while a sense of danger surrounded him, Alex was not alone in feeling that way.

The experienced tiger managed to understand what was happening and with agile movements, he made cuts to the air and every time he made them, the wolf's face became angrier.
