Chapter 25 - 10th Tier Of The Student Kingdom
Theo then made lunch for them. After eating, they went to [Dimensional Room] cultivate. Since they hadn't cultivated today.
6 hours later…
[1,000 Cells Filled. Function Tails Manipulation Obtained]
[New Tail Obtained]
Theo was surprised by the System's sudden warning, not expecting this to happen when filling the [Lineage cells].
Theo opened his eyes, "Wow, and to think I had something like that when filling my [Lineage cells]!" Theo exclaimed with this pleasant surprise.
Seeing that Yuki was still cultivating, Theo left the [Dimensional Room] to test how this [Tail Manipulation] thing is.
Arriving outside of the cave, Theo began to command his tails to move. The moment he tried, they followed his command. It was not much different from moving his own paws, they obeyed all his commands. Better yet, they were very flexible and the most incredible thing was that when he put mana on them, they started to grow proportionally to the mana inputted.
"W-Wow! This will help a lot in a fight!!" Theo exclaimed surprised and happy at the same time.
He then tested it for almost an hour and then decided to back to cultivating, as he could still cultivate for another hour.
1 hour later…
[Filled 20 Cells]
Opening his eyes again, Theo saw Yuki staring at him in astonishment, but her eyes were facing his tails.
Theo looked at his tails as well. The moment he saw his tails, Theo saw that lightning bolts were circling around them, forming electrical currents.
"Did this happen while I was cultivating?" Theo asked hesitantly.
Yuki saw that Theo stopped meditating and asked, "Theo, you have 2 tails now?" And why do these bolts surround you?
"About this new tail, I got it thanks to my [Lineage], as for the other question... I don't know either..." Theo replied, curious also why these lightning bolts began to surround he tails, but as much as he thought about it, he could not find an answer. He then decided not to think about it now.
"Oh! So you got another tail because of your [Lineage]." Yuki exclaimed.
"Besides, I can move them when how I want!" Theo said, making them move.
"Very cool! And to think you could do even that!" Yuki said with a silly grin.
"Yeah! I was surprised too!" Theo smiled and said, "Shall we go back and eat?"
"Yes!" Yuki nodded.
Seeing Yuki agree, Theo first made the lighting bolts stop running around his tails and then left the [Dimensional Room].
Upon leaving the [Dimensional Room], Theo thought: "Does the tails handling also appear in my [Status]?" With that thought in mind, he decided to open his [Status] to confirm whether it appeared or not.

"Hm... didn't show up. Well, it doesn't matter!" Theo then left the cave and went to the wood stove and began to prepare their dinner.

After having dinner with Yuki, they talked for a while and then went to sleep.
Next morning…
"Haa ~"
Opening his eyes, Theo noticed Yuki looking at him. Theo smiled at her and said, "Good morning Yuki!"
Yuki: "Good morning, Theo!"
Getting up, he cooked some fish for them to eat. Then, they entered the [Dimensional Room] to cultivate.
Theo looked at the [Magic Core] Yuki was using to cultivate, seeing that its' energy was almost empty, "Yuki, I'm going to give you another [Magic Core]!" He said opening his [Dimensional Bag] and taking out another [Magic Core] from inside it, but this one was in the 10th Tier of the Student Kingdom.
Yuki went up to Theo with her tails swaying happily and said, "Thank you, Theo!"
Theo smiled and replied, "Don't worry! I like helping you!!"
Yuki got even happier with these words from Theo.
"Hm... I feel I'm just a little bit short of reaching the 10th Tier of the Student Kingdom." Theo thought and began to cultivate.
When Theo began to cultivate using his cultivation technique, <Primordial Darkness Ray>, Dark Mana and Lightning Mana began to enter his body non-stop, going towards his center of gravity where his [Magic Core] was located.
Coming close to the [Magic Core], the Dark Mana and Lightning Mana began to form a vortex around Theo's [Magic Core] and entered it little by little.
This continued for 5 hours until he received news that made him very happy.
[Filled 100 Cells]
[Congratulations! You have reached: 10th Tier of the Student Kingdom Layer]
"Hahaha! I got to the 10th Layer of the Student Kingdom!! Just one more level and I get to the next [Kingdom] and I gain my (Human) form!" Theo laughed out loud.
Theo then looked in the direction of Yuki and saw that she was still cultivating. But this time her speed of cultivation was greater than before, the amount of mana she was pulling was so high that it even formed a mana vortex visible to the naked eye, which then it began to enter her pores without stopping.
At the same time she pulled mana from her surroundings, she also received mana from (Dragon's Egg). Theo had always been intrigued by this connection that Yuki had with (Dragon's Egg), but since it was helping her to grow faster, he didn't really worry it.
He also tried to cultivate with the (Dragon's Egg), but it didn't work.
Before Theo returns to cultivating, he heard a sound. "Bleim!" Coming from Yuki's direction.
He then realized that Yuki was able to advance to the 5th Tier of the Student Kingdom.
Watching Yuki open her eyes, Theo smiled at her and said, "Congratulations Yuki!"
Yuki nodded happily and said, "Thank you! Hehe! I am very happy! Now it's easier for me to cultivate."
"I'm happy for you too, Yuki!" Theo said.
Hearing this, Yuki began to wag her tails and went to him and began rubbing her face on his.
After Yuki created her lineage, the size difference between her and Theo wasn't great. In fact, she came to be a little bigger than him.
"By the way, I also got a breakthrough in cultivation!" Theo said.
"Seriously?! I'm happy for you Theo!!" Yuki replied.
"Thank you." Theo smiled and said, "Shall we go back to cultivating?"
"Yes, let's!" Yuki replied.

Extra Scene:
One morning, Theo and Yuki went to cultivate to the forest. They moved a bit far from each other to not affect the other's cultivation. But one time, when Theo was returning to where Yuki was, he saw her sneeze cutely and Theo thought while covering his face with his paws: "Too cute."
