In the outer layer of the center region, we see a blurry figure moving through the woods. Suddenly pouncing on an unaware lizard. The only thing it saw before it's death was a blur.
The blurred figure is none other than our adorable mouse *cough*, i mean our MC who till now doesn't have a name. Then an eerie sound, frightening the creatures around was heard.
"SQUEEEEK!"
("NINJAA!" to the MC.)
[.....You know as a mouse you can't talk yet right?]
"Eh, then what have i been doing since?"
[...Do you want to know what you really sound like?]
"That silence before you replied makes me not wanting to know."
[Ok. And congratulations on reach the peak of Rank 0. To become a demon beast, you need to kill a stage one beast]
"Wait a stage one beast?"
[Yes. So as to fulfill the condition for your first evolution]
[*Ding*]
"...."

Having spent seven weeks to reach this level was not 'easy' for me. Struggling to stay safe and find food, so pitiful ( more like those pitiful creatures). Now I have to face the greatest battle of my life.
"System, about the Rank 1 beast. Any suggestions?" I asked.
[I can't decide for you.]
"...O K, then..errr wish me Good luck?" I said.
[Not like you'll survive without it]
".... All i need to do is look for a Rank 1 beast. That should be easy." I said.
Wandering through the forest while using God's eye to look for a suitable demon beast to fight. After searching for about an hour i found my nemesis, a black cat with white strips. Checking it's details.
Name: Silver Striped Bob cat.
Rank: Low Rank 1.
Seeing the cat an evil idea surfaced in my mind. While keeping the silver striped cat withing my range, I decided to set a trap for it. I took a vine i found and went to the location of some ordinary birds, caught three of them and tied them together (poor souls). Checking the direction the silver striped cat was going towards, i went ahead of it tied the end of the vine to a branch of a tree making the birds dangle down close to the ground. I then forcefully feed them some paralysis inducing mushrooms when the cat was 20 meters away before using silent step to hide close by.
"(Evil grin) This will be fun." I said
