Chapter 109: Slith Cat Boss
"This cat..." Aldric was speechless at the notification from the System.
It was one thing if the cat really evolved, but that actually also made him get a wonderful gift from the game system.
'But what is that light? It must be what made the cat a Monster Boss because only the Monster Boss Core couldn't have helped it evolve to that point.'
Aldric was filled with questions.
He looked around only to find nothing.
There seemed to be something he didn't know in this Space Artifact.
He suspected that the changes to the Forest of Life and the bee colony were also due to that light.
Despite not knowing what it was, he felt quite comfortable that it was helping him grow his strength. That might not be a bad thing.
His eyes looked at the Slith Cat again.
The changes were not limited to those wings and tiara. On her body, there suddenly appeared golden lines from her face to even her wings.
On each side, there were three stripes, having similar shapes.
Those golden lines also emitted a distinct aura.
It was an aura that seemed to have the power to redeem space.
Aldric couldn't guess what that aura would make the cat become. Perhaps her speed increased even further because the cat's power focused on speed.

After the golden streaks appeared, the cat's eyes finally opened.
They turned out to be golden in color, bright and sharp so as to give the impression of a pair of small suns.
She had a gaze that seemed to be able to penetrate one's soul to the point of shattering the mind.
However, when she looked at Aldric, her eyes softened instantly.
Her wings stopped flapping so her body descended to the ground, landing right in front of him.
"Master!" A soft voice came out of her mouth, which surprised him greatly.
"You?" He wanted to ask if she could speak but it was something obvious.
With the experience of meeting a Monster Boss, he came to know that Monster Bosses had intelligence, not just the ability to speak.
That Slith Cat was already a Monster Boss. She could naturally speak.
Suddenly the cat he bought could speak, he wasn't sure how to respond.
"Master, do you have any enemies now? Let me help you kill your enemies." The cat spoke again, saying something that made Aldric even more dumbfounded.
"Mm..." He looked at her eyes which, though gentle, were filled with killing desire.
It could be felt. Junior Magician would definitely tremble when feeling that.
'She has such a savage side. If she was still a wild cat, I'm afraid she would have instantly absorbed the city and slaughtered many people.'
Just by sensing the killing intent of the cat, Aldric could guess what would happen if she was not bound.
"No, there are no enemies right now." He finally replied.
"By the way, Slith, try running at your fastest speed. I want to see how fast you are," he added.
He wasn't sure what name would suit her, so he just called her Slith.
Hearing his words, the cat gave a light nod.
She twisted her body to the side, taking one step before running.
Whoosh!
Instantly, her figure disappeared. She was too fast, one could only vaguely see as if there was a fast-moving gust of wind.
Perhaps due to her light body, no shockwaves were generated from her movements, yet there was an extremely loud buzzing sound that arose due to her movements.
The sound made the ears hurt, and even made the mind dizzy.
Two seconds later, Aldric saw the figure of the cat, so far away from him that her figure was almost invisible. This was because his eyes had evolved so that he saw her. Only a 10th Stage Junior Magician, would not be able to see her at this distance. Even she was in the air, hovering.
Who knew if she was just running or flying.
'I'm afraid her speed is ten times faster than the city lord when he uses his Genesis Core power. Are there any creatures faster than this cat at the same level or nearby?'
Aldric found it hard to believe.
At the same time, he finally realized what a Monster Boss looked like when in its prime.
By relying on her speed, Aldric thought it would not be easy to defeat her unless one first restricted her movements.
Without being able to restrict her movement, he thought it would be impossible to defeat her because no one could attack a cat that was so fast and could even fly.
'Yee, but if she fights me, I can use my huge Soul World to capture her consciousness when she tries to attack me.'
Aldric discovered that only someone with abilities like his had a chance to defeat the cat.
If there is someone who is as fast as the cat or like Elsa who can keep appearing wherever the cat is if she manages to put her power mark on her body, she may not be able to defeat her because the cat has the ability to make her body transparent to the point that her cannot be attacked at all using physical attacks.
'Fortunately, she doesn't seem to have a weakness like the Lava Giant Boss,' Aldric thought.
The latter has a weakness where he has to sleep at night and if he forces himself to wake up, his strength becomes weaker.
This was said to be because he was in the process of a certain development, but Aldric didn't know what that development was either.
"Come back!" He then waved to the cat while asking her to come back.
Whoosh!
She moved again, appearing in front of him in two seconds.
When she landed, there was really no effect produced, showing how light her body was.
Even the dust was only lifted slightly upwards.
"By the way, besides your speed and making your body transparent so people can't attack you, do you have any other abilities now? Like the ability to attack?" asked Aldric.
"No, I don't have any other abilities, but my claws can practically pierce through anything," replied the cat while showing her claws that looked like diamonds with a sharpness like a knife.
"My claws are indestructible," the cat added.
