Chapter 73 - Yuki Evolves! And Benladann's Progress!
.

[Day 43]
Today Yuki evolved! It was surprising because I thought she would take a bit longer, but here she was, all evolved.
"Kyuuu! Kyuu!"
"Yuki, you're even fluffier now!" said Benladann.
Yuki's appearance didn't change much… she simply became around 30 centimeters taller, but she still looked like a snow-white chinchilla.
Her poisonous claws, however, grew incredibly sharp and had a metallic luster, which she could use to tear down whole rocks apart, she even sued them as blades, finely slicing an entire tree into pieces.
…
Name: Yuki.
Race: Giant Venomous Snow Chinchilla-Monkey (Female)
Mana Core Cultivation: Rank 1 (Peak Stage).
Status: Happy.
Average Estimated Vitality: 767/767 (Up!)
Average Estimated Mana: 830/830 (Up!)
Average Estimated Strength: 606 (Up!)
Average Estimated Dexterity: 1100 (Up!)
Average Estimated Magic: 770(Up!)
Abilities:
[Acrobatics]
[Precise Throwing]
[Ice Wind]
[Icicle Spear]
[Snow Ball Roll]
[Impact-Dampening Fur Armor]
[Venomous Metallic Claws]
[Hastened Self-Recovery]
[Parasite Immunity]
[Status Effect Resistance]
[Ice Dragon's Skin]
[Cooking]
[Butcher]
[Gathering]
[Keen Senses]
[Mana Manipulation]
[Blade Claws]
…
She has progressed quite a lot! Yuki has also been training on her own while cultivating mana passively with me.
Her stats are pretty decent, and her Dexterity is the highest.
Well, she doesn't really have "stats" this status I am seeing is just the System showing me an estimate of her capabilities.
But every time she evolved, her capabilities increased, so she's looking fine.
She has a few new Abilities too, which most likely are learned skills not from the System but merely through experience.
They are Cooking and Butcher, which she always does while helping Benladann. She also helped me cook for Benladann when the girl was sick of her stomach, so she had gained some valuable experience.
Though… I still think that my System is somehow affecting the people around me, perhaps their abilities are developing quicker? Well, maybe not.
She also got Mana Manipulation for obvious reasons, such as cultivating mana all the time with me, Keen Senses which appeared after evolving (I guess she became keener), and she got the Blade Claws one, which is most likely how her claws can slice through things like actual blades.
And this Blade Claws combined with her incredible speed and dexterity make her a deadly combatant… If she were my enemy, I would have a hard time resisting her slicing attacks, which can actually penetrate through my scales to an extent!
And about Benladann… she also progressed a lot yesterday! Indeed, we spent several hours cultivating until she suddenly ranked up her Mana Core Cultivation!
I was also surprised, as she can't eat Mana Cores to increase her cultivation like me, but she did it naturally, the good ol' fashioned way… Well, like Yuki.
Her stats are obviously lower than before, as without being a Mold Legion, her stats are not boosted. But I could say she had progressed pretty well on her own.
…
Name: Benladann.
Race: Ice Giant (Jotunn) (Female)
Mana Core Cultivation: Rank 1 (Middle Stage).
Status: Healthy, Cheerful.
Average Estimated Vitality: 626/626
Average Estimated Mana: 443/443
Average Estimated Strength: 405
Average Estimated Dexterity: 211
Average Estimated Magic: 363
Abilities:
Unique Skill: [Mold] (Suppressed)
Unique Skill: [Charm] (Active) (Ineffective against you)
[Ice Giant's Bloodline: Ymir's Descendant]
[Cold Immunity]
[Ice Resistance]
[Hastened Self-Recovery]
[Parasite Immunity]
[Status Effect Resistance]
[Ice Dragon's Skin]
[Cooking]
[Butcher]
[Crafting]
[Sewing]
[Mana Manipulation]
[Giant's Great Physique]
[Magic Genius]
[Undying Stamina] (Sealed)
[Degradation] (Sealed)
[Crazed Agility] (Sealed)
[Crazed Consumption] (Sealed)
[Infection] (Sealed)
[Legion] (Sealed)
[Bone-Breaking Claws] (Sealed)
[Deadly Mold Whip] (Sealed)
…
As always, her OP Abilities are Sealed, but she had gained some new ones of her own. Most likely thanks to her cooking a lot, sewing, crafting, and butchering. She's a very skilled girl.
She also got Mana Manipulation very quickly, most likely after opening her Mana Veins.
And then she got Giant's Great Physique most likely from her Ymir's bloodline, which seems to enhance her physical strength and vitality a lot… This is why she has way more Stats than I did in her same Rank.
And lastly, Magic Genius reflects her great Mana Core Talent, which, as she said, was A-Grade.
In this world the higher your Mana Core Grade is, the more talented you're seen as. Her Mana Core Grade was A-Grade, the highest there is, meaning she is a naturally gifted genius.
I think the reason behind this is the Mold itself, her Mana Core most likely was created by that Wish that she didn't intend to make… And this ended in her having a Mana Core that is also her Mold Unique Skill. Due to its creating being made by something or someone so strong to accomplish such wishes, I would guess it was made with the highest grade.
After Yuki's evolution was celebrated, we began to cook breakfast, and then we trained both Mana and our Physical Body again… I will most likely make her train Mold past tomorrow, which both of us have been neglecting for the moment.

[Day 44]
Today a new batch of Ice Wolves was born, I was surprised.
According to what I understood, it seems that more children are being born now that I am helping the pack eat every day, so they got more nutrients and something…
I suppose when they are not well-fed, the female wolves breed less as a way to not create more mouths to feed.
But now that everyone is so well fed, they got pregnant?
Wait, you can reproduce so fast?!
No, I think it is most likely that these females were already pregnant beforehand…
Anyways, there is something that has to do with me helping them get feed. But I am not really doing much, I am just teaching them new ways to sneak around their foes or to make ice traps to catch ice rabbits.
Oh, they also hunt other ice wolves, there's no scrupulous there, they are fine with being cannibals I suppose.
I don't have any problem with that because I also hunt ice wolves that don't belong to the pack, their meat is firmer than the rabbits, so I enjoy it.
Anyways, today we continued to train Mana…
