I Was Reincarnated as the Weakest Monster, but I’ll Use My ‘Return from Death’ Skill to Become the Strongest! Even as the Weakest Monster, I Want to Get Stronger, Take Human Form, and Build a Harem… But Why Do Only Yandere Non-Human Girls Keep Showing Up? - Chapter 1.8
My first evolution.
And my first real victory in battle.
With both of these achievements under my belt, I couldn’t help but feel a little elated.
And honestly, who could blame me?
For the first time since coming to this world, something good had happened.
At first, I thought I was just some ordinary cat, doomed to die immediately.
Then followed three grueling days of nothing but eating bugs to survive.
So yeah—
Being able to evolve was a massive relief.
I didn’t even want to imagine what would’ve happened if I couldn’t.

My level had increased steadily—a good sign.
“Hahhh…”
That being said, leveling up was about to get a lot harder.
After evolving, I had killed five bugs—but my level hadn’t budged.
It was obvious now that the experience required had increased dramatically.
I was no longer a wild animal—I was now a monster.
And with my larger body, living off bugs was going to be a real challenge.
“…Guess this is my meal, then.”
With no other options, I turned to the dead dog at my feet.
This was all I had for food.
“…Guess I’ll take it back with me.”
I grabbed the dog’s corpse and started dragging it back to my cave—
A small shelter I had found a few days ago and claimed as my home.
“Alright.”
Inside the cave, I placed the dog’s body beside my makeshift nest, a pile of leaves I had gathered.
Then, I left again to look for flint.
Because there was no way in hell I was eating this raw.
“…This isn’t gonna work.”
I had gathered sticks and leaves, arranged them into a pile, and started striking stones together.
Holding the stones in my paws, I kept hitting them together, over and over again.
“…”
Nothing.
Not even a spark.
Yeah…
I kinda figured this wouldn’t work.
I had just randomly picked up some rocks and started smashing them together.
Like hell that was gonna magically start a fire.
And then—
A familiar voice echoed in my head.
The same voice I had heard during my evolution.
── Skill acquired: “Embers.”
Wait, what?! That’s amazing!
I immediately abandoned the flint and activated my new skill.
“No way…!”
The power of this skill was beyond anything I had expected.
In an instant, my pile of sticks and leaves burst into flames, crackling loudly as they caught fire.
The flames were stronger than I expected.
This wasn’t just a tiny spark—this was a proper fire.
It wouldn’t be useful in battle, but for survival, this was a complete game-changer.
“Burn.”
With that, I tossed the dog into the flames.
Eventually, it’d be cooked through.
Cooking doesn’t need to be complicated—you just wing it, and somehow, it works out.
“Phew…”
With the fire going strong, I sat down in front of it.
The first successful fire I had ever made.
Just looking at it filled me with relief.
I lifted my front paws toward the flames, warming them.
Nights were cold.
Having a fire was going to make them a lot more comfortable.
I’d need to gather more sticks and leaves later to keep it burning.
“Aahhh…”
Right now—
A huge cat, sitting by a fire, warming itself.
If I live-streamed this, I’d probably go viral.
That thought made me smile as I soaked in the warmth.
“Oh, damn. This is good.”
About an hour later, when I finally took my first bite—
The dog meat was perfectly cooked.
Not burned, not raw—just right.
Mission: Cooking Success.
For the first time in three days, I fell asleep with a full stomach.
