After a week, the little wolf still didn't wake up, to make him more comfortable, I made a small hut made of wood and leaves in a reasonable distance from where I was born, I didn't exactly put him there, because whenever we approach him he started thrashing and running a fever, I don't know exactly why, so to prevent him from getting worse, I made this hut somewhere where he wouldn't be affected by whatever. Analyzing myself has become a routine around here.

[Sein]: "This is the first title I've seen that has a level, but from the name it's pretty positive. My first step towards human friendship!"

After looking at my status for a while, a question suddenly comes to my mind and it's something important in communication.

[Sein]: "How am I going to talk to humans? I already noticed that I don't speak, I moan, I don't know the local language, is there telepathy? Voice of mind Does this world have telepathy?"

# Unable to answer at current level

# Heads up! A skill leveled up

- Voice of the mind (lv.4 -> 5)

[Sein]: "I'll try one more time. Voice of the mind, is there telepathy in this world?"

# I'm sorry Sein, I don't know

[Sein]: "How is it? What happened? Why did your way of speaking change?"

# Now I have a conscience of my own, Sein

[Sein]: "How amazing, voice of the mind!"

# Thank you very much, Sein. Do you want advice?

[Sein]: "About what?"

# About telepathy, I don't possess such knowledge, but I can help somehow

[Sein]: "Thanks, go ahead"

# You could capture a monster, weaken it, and try to talk to it through your mind for a minute. If no one can teach you, you can learn naturally by trying!

[Sein]: "Makes sense. Thank you, voice of mind, I will put this advice into practice."

# When you need it, just call me

Upon advice from the voice of the mind, I try to look for monsters and find a spider-like one, then use analysis.

[Sein]: "Wow, that spider is treacherous..."

Without hesitating, I jumped towards her using ⟦draconian karate⟧ and ⟦claws⟧, without moving I caught her, however, my body got caught in something and she disappeared giving way to a tangle of webs.

[Sein]: "What? As? She doesn't have any illusion skills!"

# Sein, some titles work as skills, for example your ⟦tiny hero⟧

[Sein]: "What do you mean? So titles are not just merits?"

# I'm sorry, Sein, they are not

[Sein]: "Gee... I feel so inferior..."

# Don't be like that, Sein. A new skill has been acquired

- Web (lv.1)
Info: Allows you to launch customizable webs from the tail, and see weaknesses in enemy webs.
N/T: With each level increase, new customization possibilities are unlocked.

[Sein]: "I'm really happy to have the title ⟦curious⟧"

I look around and spot a highlighted part of the web, it's probably her weakness and then I use ⟦claws⟧ to break it.

I catch the spider by surprise from behind using ⟦draconian karate⟧, right after I break free I throw it against a tree, hitting it from the back, I take advantage and use ⟦analysis⟧.

[Sein]: "Apparently, attacking her off guard caused her to take a lot more damage, and unlike the last time she managed to cheat ⟦analysis⟧, now I can see the amount of ⟦MP⟧ she spent to make the trap"

Without using any more skills, I continue the attack, realizing that she can't take any more, I use analysis.

[Sein]: "Great, now I'm going to tie you up"

I point my tail at her and cast ⟦web⟧. With her squirming with difficulty to free herself, she manages to bite me and my body becomes heavy and with difficulties in moving, to know what is happening, I use ⟦analysis⟧.

[Sein]: "It could only be... I should have been careful..."

# Heads up! A new resistance was acquired

- Resistance to paralysis (lv.1)

[Sein]: "How convenient, it wasn't the right time, but it will do"

While paralyzed, I look at the spider, concentrate and try to speak to it telepathically.

[Sein]: <Can you hear me? I won't hurt you, not anymore. If you know what I mean, do 'wak' >

...

[Sein]: <Please answer>

...

[Sein]: <Nothing? Can you hear me?>

...

[Sein]: <I don't think so>

...

[Sein]: "Voice of the mind, I've been doing this for over a minute, nothing happens..."

# Sorry, I thought the title ⟦curious⟧ would work for this

[Sein]: "Okay, voice of the mind, what counts is the intention"

I approach and use ⟦claw⟧ to finish off the spider.

# Heads up! 130 experience points received and conditions completed

# Baby dragon rose to level 7
