When I woke up, Reveon was still asleep in my embrace, a very comfortable hug pillow ..
I looked at him with a smile as events from yesterday surfaced in my mind. What a night. He probably won't wake up for at least an hour. I stopped myself from caressing his body .. have to restrain myself, he needs some rest. There will be plenty of opportunities.
I should probably try to learn Space Time magic .. and spend remaining points onto something. Had no time to do that before going to sleep and because of that one point went into agility. Hmm, I should rise agility to 100, I am almost there anyway.
Huh ? Nothing ? Was hoping to gain 'enhanced speed' or something similar, I got 'enhanced mana pool' when mind power reached 100. Well, it was worth a shot.
When a few days ago I asked Reveon to teach his Space Time magic, he said it was inherited. With the body manipulation reaching level 5 it was possible for me to alter DNA, though I need to have a sample of DNA as a guide. Otherwise, would risk screwing up big time, and I am sure I wouldn't like that.
After a wild night with Master, I had a lot of 'sample' absorbed. It was a bit different type of digestion with the aim to analyze DNA, and now I wanted to do some research.
If Reveon was of the same race as me, it would be way easier to search for what I was looking for. Still, if gained samples of DNA were just from blood or flesh, it would be a bit harder. Not that I would bite him, I prefer him 'eating' me instead .. uhh .. I need to focus.
And after an half hour I think I finally found what I was looking for, it was time to see if it works. I entered deep meditation with the aim to start altering my body.
Special "Space Time Magic" learned.
"Master I love you !" I squeezed Reveon overwhelmed by emotions.
"Me too Kitty." he answered during the sleep, causing me to giggle. It's me or himself that he loves?

After I learned Space Time magic, I left it alone. I was a bit afraid to use it. What if time wasn't frozen in my dimension. I know the physics, if my pocket dimension is the same size as his and there is no air inside .. vacuum can be very dangerous. It would be terrible if I was shredded to pieces when trying to open my dimension. I will ask Reveon when he is awake.
While he was sleeping, I was analyzing my skills while still lying in the bed, how they worked and what should I do to improve them further.
Mana Perception reached level 5.
Mana Perception reached level 6.
Mana Perception reached level 7.
Mana Manipulation reached level 4.
Dragon Claws reached level 2.
Dragon Claws reached level 3.
After tampering a bit with 'dragon claws', I got a better idea how to improve my phantom claws. Phantom claws were just mana running outside the body while forming a physical structure. I could probably improve mana efficiency and hardness ..
Phantom Claws reached level 2.
Phantom Claws reached level 3.
Phantom Tail reached level 2.
Phantom Tail reached level 3.
.. hmm, it's impossible with dragon claws, but what if I add vibrations to phantom claws and tail ..
my thoughts were suddenly interrupted when I received a kiss. Reveon was finally awake.
"Good morning Kitty." he said after releasing my lips.
"Good morning Sleepyhead." I greeted him as well.
"Can you really blame me for that? Mmm .. still naked ?" he asked while touching my body as if to make sure.
"Same as you." I answered while touching him below waist with my tail.
"Well, I had no chance to get dressed yet, but I think you was awake for few hours." he said and caught my tail.
The genuine version of this novel can be found on another site. Support the author by reading it there.
"My clothes are inside your pocket dimension. Though I admit I could cover myself with a bathrobe or underwears." I said while looking at our bathrobes still near the door since yesterday. "But what's the point? You have already seen everything there is to see. There was also a chance you would get excited and want for some morning exercise." I grinned.
"Ha ha ha. I wish I could Kitty, you drained me dry. Anyway .. what's the plan for today?" He asked.
"You can try to awaken 'enhanced mind' while I sew some new clothes for myself. I need clothes to cover more skin. Some pants would be nice as well." I said while putting on some underwears and walked to pick sewing tools.
At those words, he froze.
"Aww, my poor Master. Sad you won't see me in skimpy clothes ?" I teased him with a grin while looking back over my shoulder.
"Maybe. But I would like to ask why? There is no way you fear of attracting some trouble with your looks." he asked.
"You are right. It's to reduce of how much an enemy can read me. A real warrior can predict moves by seeing twitches of muscles under the skin. The more I am exposed, the easier it is for my opponents. If my opponent was as exposed as I usually am while wearing a tunic, I would know all he is about to do even before he made a move, including feints." I said and then performed some swings in the air. Then I repeated them more slowly and with a finger pointed where to look for signs, that indicated my next move.
"I think I understand what you are saying, but it's impossible for me to guess your move just from that. Probably a thing of warriors." said Reveon lost in thoughts.

"Is it safe to open pocket dimension for the first time ?" I quickly asked when finished an imitation of jeans. There is no way to put on pants without shredding them with my claws. I will need to use the Space Time magic like Reveon.
"Yes." he answered confused.
As I got confirmation I immediately activated it. Knowledge how to do that was in my possession the moment I learned this magic.
Wow. That's a lot of space. As I looked inside my pocket dimension, I cold see an endless white room. Maybe there were some limits, but so far it was not visible.
I touched my pants and with eagerness awaited them to appear inside. Then waited some more, and even more after that. It took me almost five minutes to stuff pants into a pocket dimension. While the process itself was done in a blink, I had to use a lot of time to 'calculate' and activate the process. Why it's so different from Reveon ? Level too low? Doesn't matter, I did it! I finally have my inventory.
After I calmed down a bit I tried to summon pants directly on myself. It took even longer, but after seven minutes I was wearing my first pair of pants. Hmm, that's quite a record for just putting them on .. maybe I will just leave such task for Master, at least for a day or two. It should be possible to increase speed dramatically, and I suspect that would rise level as well. I am sure Master won't mind helping me with clothes.
"How did you learn the Space Time magic ?" he asked me with wide eyes.
"It's all your doing dear. All night you literally pumped me with the knowledge." I said with a grin.

After I made tunic and jacket with sleeves my tailoring raised by one more level. It's interesting how this skill works. It's like the system was making an exchange with me. For a knowledge unknown to this world I got knowledge in return with level up of skill.
After quick breakfast/lunch. We left to search for a place to rent. We planned to use it as our temporary workshop.
On the way, we checked if assassin showed up in the place we spotted his tracks yesterday. And as I suspected, he was not here. If he plans to kill, scouting should have been done around the same time he plans to act. We will come there later.

".. Fine, we take it." said Reveon while giving money to Rick. He was an old human and we were renting a building from him.
"You are losing your touch Master. When you bought me, you was way better at bargaining." I teased him.
"Because there was a loophole I could exploit back then. This building is in good condition and even surroundings are often patrolled. There wasn't much I could do to drop the price." said Reveon with a sad face as we walked some distance away.
I think both of us like money very much. I wasn't like this in my old world, but I changed a bit when I got there. Hmm, actually changed a lot, seems new body affects my personality a bit.
"Hey, stop right there !" shouted someone from behind when we were inspecting the building.
When I looked back I saw city guards rushing to us. What's this? I don't remember doing anything that could attract the attention of guards .. oh, there was also Rick in their group, the old man who rented us the building. Is this some plot?
"How can we help you ?" I asked.
"Are you a slave ?" asked leading guard while looking at my neck.
She was a dryad while her colleagues were two dwarfs and one human.
"No." I answered still not sure what's this all about.
"I am not lying Amara. She called him Master, and they were even talking about how he bought her. She doesn't have a collar, so she must have been enslaved illegally." quickly said the old man.
"Maybe she is forced to lie because of some enchantment." whispered one of the dwarfs.
"She was a slave not long ago but I freed her." Master stepped in.
"Yeah riiight. And she still calls you as Master." said guard of the human race with a voice full of sarcasm.
"It's the truth. I just like to call him like that." I added to which they just looked at me with skeptical gazes.
"Hmm, analyze doesn't show her status as enslaved .. maybe he is telling the truth." said Amara.
Analyze ? But she didn't use any tool. Does it mean it's possible to have it as a skill?
"Maybe there is some skill in play ?" suggested another dwarf.
"You will have to follow us, Captain will know for sure." said the Dryad.

After meeting with their Captain we were free only after an half hour of tests and questioning. Rick was a friend of the captain and twenty years ago his sister was illegally enslaved and sold to a brothel. After some time she was released, but the damage was done. It was the reason why he immediately called guards when he thought I was enslaved.
"So much trouble just for calling you Master." I was grumbling while we walked back to the building.
I hope the assassin will show up when it's time. I need a punching bag to feel a bit better.
"And if you just called me by name, we would have none." said Reveon with a smile.
"But it's not fair. I like when you call me Kitty. I want a name only I use to address you." I pouted.
"Though I am bad at naming" I quickly added in a whisper. "Just you wait, I will definitely think of something .." I said with determination.
