Hello everyone,
A lot of you have been asking how strong the MC is compared to a fully grown adult. I originally planned to reveal this around Chapter 76, but since the questions keep coming, here's a clear answer.
Peak Adult Sabertooth Tiger Stats:
- Physique: 100
- Strength: 130
- Agility: 60
These are the stats of a fully grown sabertooth tiger at its PEAK.

Growth Stages of a Sabertooth Tiger
- Infancy: Less than 12 months
- Sub-adulthood: 1–3 years
- Adulthood: 3–10 years
- Old Age: Above 10 years
Under ideal conditions, a sabertooth tiger can live up to 20–25 years, though reaching that age is rare.

Regarding the question about giving the MC a tail—
My main idea was to make the MC a more complete big cat. Sabertooth tigers naturally have a weakness in speed—they can only reach around 48 km/h, which is slow compared to modern big cats. They're built more like tanks and rely on ambush rather than speed.
Since the MC is meant to be an improved version, I gave him more speed. The tail helps with balance, especially during sharp turns and high-speed movement, making his combat and hunting more effective.
If this explanation still doesn't work for you, that's fine. No story is perfect, and I'm still learning as I go.

This should give you a better idea of the power scale going forward. More details will naturally be revealed as the story progresses, so stay tuned.
