Magical Cat

Li En's eyes widened, and she couldn't help but wipe them.

【15】

Then, he looked at Elaine who was standing to the side.

【13】

Elaine's magic power level was still thirteen, but Li En's magic power level suddenly soared to fifteen, directly surpassing Elaine's.

"I just upgraded a skill, how come my magic power has increased so much?"

Li En gradually regained his spirits and got out of bed.

He first lifted his leg and carefully examined the spirit pill.

Fortunately, the tiny spirit pill is safe and sound and is developing vigorously.

"Not bad, not bad."

Li En nodded in satisfaction, then continued to feel the changes in his body.

He closed his eyes and focused all his attention on himself.

A moment later, he opened his eyes in surprise.

Li En discovered that the speed at which his magic power increased on its own had increased several times over.

However, he didn't have a standard for exactly how much faster it was, so it was difficult to define.

Thinking of this, Li En turned to look at Elaine, then snuggled into her arms and begged to replenish his mana.

"Li En, what's wrong with you today?" Elaine asked curiously, feeling ticklish from being nudged.

Normally, Li En isn't very interested in replenishing mana, because he can increase his mana on his own through his mana perception skill.

When replenishing mana, Elaine not only has to enter a meditative state, but Lee En also has to stay obediently in her arms without moving.

Li En couldn't stand it, and he didn't like the feeling of being supported by Elaine.

So, if Elaine wanted to replenish his mana, she would have to go to great lengths to pull him into her arms and coax him for a while before she could proceed.

The fact that Li En took the initiative to seek out Elaine to replenish his mana today is practically a miracle.

Elaine didn't think much of it, assuming that Li En was just being coquettish for once.

It just so happened that it was the weekend and there were no classes during the day, so Elaine hugged Li En and started replenishing her mana.

Li En's decision to have Elaine replenish his mana wasn't impulsive; he wanted to assess how much stronger the effect of his mana perception automatically increasing his mana had become.

Half an hour later, the person and the cat finally woke up from their mana replenishment state, both with satisfied expressions on their faces.

"Li En, you said this mana replenishment is so comfortable, why are you unwilling?" Elaine's tone was weak, her voice carrying the panting of someone who had just woken up, making the cat's ears itch.

Li En's previous resistance to replenishing mana actually had other reasons, namely that the process of replenishing mana was unusually comfortable, making people addicted to it.

When my magic power increases on its own, I feel a tingling, itchy sensation all over my body.

After a few days of getting used to it, this feeling wasn't as obvious as it was at the beginning.

But unlike when Elaine replenished her mana, that comfort felt like it turned Lee En's brain into a complete mess.

Each time he finished replenishing his mana, it took him a long time to regain his senses and get his brain working again.

Li En both longed for this feeling and was somewhat afraid.

I felt that this comfort had exceeded my limits, and it was easy to become addicted to it and unable to extricate myself.

"This mana replenishment feels a bit off."

Li En shook his head vigorously and managed to climb out of Elaine's arms.

Elaine was too exhausted to do anything else and let him crawl to the side.

Li En forced his dazed mind to start thinking again.

"Previously, the rate at which magic power regenerated on its own was only about one-twentieth of the rate at which magic power was replenished, but now it has increased tenfold, reaching half the rate at which magic power is replenished."

Li En's thoughts were somewhat stuck.

If his magic continues to grow at this rate, it would be a truly terrifying thing.

"The skill was only upgraded from Silver to Gold tier, yet the effect is so exaggerated?"

"Above the Gold tier, are there any other skill levels?"

Li En couldn't help but swallow hard, unable to imagine what level his skills would reach in the future.

Just as he was in shock, Elaine's little hand grabbed Lee's tail, startling him.

"Li En~"

"Shall we rest for a bit and replenish our mana?"

"When I'm replenishing your mana, my meditation speed is also much faster. I don't have any classes today, so I can replenish mana all day long."

Elaine's tone made it impossible to refuse.

This is what Li En fears most.

Normal mana replenishment involves a mage using their own magic power to nourish a magical beast.

But it's different for Lee En and Elaine; it benefits both of them.

However, their mana replenishment process was clearly abnormal and too stimulating to the senses.

If Li En spends the whole day replenishing mana, he won't be able to do anything else. His brain might even break down, and he might completely degenerate into a magical beast that only knows how to replenish mana and completely indulges his instincts.

Therefore, Li En was determined to restrain himself from replenishing Elaine's mana until he had the ability to control it.

They were able to continue at first, but Li En interrupted the mana replenishment process half an hour early.

Even so, his mind is still not clear; he's still a bit dazed.

Ignoring how pitiful Elaine looked, Li En used all four limbs to frantically break free from her clutches.

……

In the evening, under Elaine's resentful gaze, Li En buried himself in his writing and drawing at his desk.

"Magic Perception:"

Gold-tier passive skill: Enhances automatic mana absorption, at half the speed of Elaine's mana replenishment. Improves the ability to read magical text, consuming less mana for reading. Dissolves specific elemental magic more quickly. Significantly enhances mental strength.

(Silver-tier passive skill: Automatically absorbs mana at a speed one-twentieth of Elaine's mana replenishment speed; can understand magical text; slowly dissolves corresponding elemental magic.)

Li En asked Elaine for paper and pen, then dipped his tail in ink and began organizing his skill information.

The panel in his mind only contained simple skill names; he had to explore the corresponding effects on his own.

To facilitate comparison, Li En also recorded the effects of the skills before they were enhanced.

However, this was his first time writing something like this, so there were bound to be some rough parts.

After spending the entire day experimenting with Elaine, Li En also obtained preliminary data on the enhanced Magic Perception skill.

"Li En, what kind of writing is this?"

Elaine looked at the unfamiliar characters written by Li En and asked curiously.

"This is the cat language from my hometown."

Li En looked at the simplified Chinese he had written and answered without blushing or skipping a beat.

"The magical cat even has its own writing system!"

Elaine was shocked; this was little-known fact that had never been made public in the magical world.

"That's for sure, Meow language is a very profound language."

Li En, after convincing Elaine, continued to supplement his skill notes.

"The Eye of Quantification:"

Silver-tier active skill: Allows you to observe a mage's magic power level; spells correspondingly consume magic power.

Li En wanted to continue writing, but found that the Quantitative Eye's abilities seemed to be limited to this.

There may be other abilities waiting to be developed, but compared to the magic perception skill, the effect is indeed much simpler.

"Why does it feel like my passive skill is even better?"

The magical cat scratched its head and realized that after writing down two skills, it had nothing more to say.

"I still don't have enough skills!"
