"Raiden, I am leaving for school!! Don't be such a lazy ass and wake up already!! See ya!"
Hearing the shout, the long black-haired man who was sleeping while hugging a pillow groaned and turned to side, hoping to ignore the world and go back to sleep.
But there was a certain Terra Beast, who didn't like his partner was still sleeping while it was awake, climbed on top of the bed and slowly made his way on top of the defenceless sleeping Raiden's back. Letting out an evil laugh, it electrocuted him.
"AHHH!!!! FUCK!! Woolie, I am going to murder you!!!" Raiden, now fully awake, shouted at Woolie in fury, who had already reached the door, while still laughing at him.
Furious, he lunged at Woolie, only to completely end up missing him. He was now regretting training the little one so hard.
Woolie, who completely graduated from using a 10 kg weight just after the first day, came before him once again, demanding more training.
Raiden, who was unwilling to lose and determined to make this little sheep give up on training, directly doubled the weight on its body, increasing it from 10 kgs to 20 kgs directly.
Woolie, who was equally stubborn in nature, didn't give up and started training with weights hanging on its body that were greater than its own.
And he proved he was the GOAT two days later, completely adapting to the new weights, and now he ran faster than Raiden can ever hope to catch up with.
Despite knowing the outcome, Raiden still decided to chase the damn sheep for 10 minutes around the house, hoping it would end up distracted for a second and give him a chance to catch it and teach it a lesson.
Alas, his wish went unfulfilled as he wasn't even able to touch the shadow of Woolie.
Feeling tired without getting any results, he simply gave up and went towards the kitchen for some breakfast.
Opening the refrigerator, he pulled out two cartons of 'Milkos Formula' before he started chugging it directly from the box.
It pained him to do so, but he simply had no other choice. Ever since he started training, his body demanded much more nutrition, and normal food wasn't enough to meet his needs.
Good thing the trust fund in his name was credited into his account, or he wouldn't be able to afford the money.
So in the end, like Woolie, he had to drink Milkos Formula. And speaking of glutton, sure enough. He came trotting in happily in front of him, with a bowl in its mouth, clearly here for food.
Raiden wanted to catch it again, but gave up his plan in the end, knowing it would just run away again.
"Alright, come here, you damned sheep." He gestured for it to come closer and emptied the second milk carton into its vessel, letting him drink it happily.
He laid a hand on its head and started caressing it, which made it smile happily. Every day, this human laid a hand on its head just like this, providing it a top-tier massage that felt very good. He looked forward to it daily the most.
"Alright, C Tier. Don't disappoint me, system."
"Enhance."
{Ding! Woolie Potential is Being Updated: D → C (4/4)}
This time, the change was instant.
He saw a bronze coloured light cover Woolie's body from head to toe, making him squint his eyes due to its brightness.
When he opened his eyes again, he was shocked by what he saw.
Standing in the place of his cute baby sheep, was now an adult-sized sheep.
No longer the forearm-sized fluffball he could carry everywhere. The sheep now stood nearly as tall as his waist, his fleece thick and lustrous, crackling faintly with violet electricity. Its horns grew out from tiny stumps to a bigger version, now with a slight curve to them.

Raiden's body also felt the feedback of this growth. Now no longer as scrawny as before, he had already gained substantial mass, looking more like an adult who had been going to the gym for some time.
But after this evolution of Woolie, his body started evolving too, due to the bond they shared between them. His body started getting bigger than before, both in height and width, as he grew from 5'10 to over 6 feet tall, and a faint outline of abs appeared on his body.
Woolie, on the other hand, was happily drinking milk, felt something weird. The plate in front of him seemed to be going further away from him, making him confused.
"Woo?"
It looked at itself and felt shocked.
(⊙o⊙)!!
Gone were its small, stubby legs; his whole body now felt stronger and full of power. It started walking around awkwardly, before breaking out into a small jog, then full blown run around the house, clearly enjoying its newfound form.
Raiden, on the other hand, focused on its status screen instead.
{Woolie, The Thunder Sheep}
{Rank: Bronze}
Description: Woolie, The Thunder Sheep, is a variant of Woolie, The Farm Sheep. It uses its fleece to protect itself from danger, and it likes to shed its fleece once a week. It starts to feel uncomfortable if it doesn't. This one contains the bloodline of Fenrir, The God-Killer.
{Potential: C Tier (B Tier Upon Maturity)}
{Current Moves: Tackle, Quick Attack, Nuzzle, Cotton Guard, Discharge, Thunder Shock, Minimise}
He looked at the updated move set, the last one in particular.
"Hey Woolie, come here!!" He shouted, to which the sheep responded, appearing before his eyes instantly. Clearly, this evolution provided him with a boost in speed as well.
"See and try if you can shrink down." He asked.
"Woo?" Woolie tilted his head to the side, clearly not able to understand whatever gibberish his trainer was speaking.
"Shrink down! Small! Become smaller! Like this!!" Raiden started gesturing wildly with his hands, trying to explain it what he wanted.
And he seemed to have conveyed his message successfully, as Woolie started shrinking before his very eyes, becoming cute and small again.
It seemed to be happier too, as it started running around again. Midway through the run, it lost its focus and ended up becoming giant once again, before stumbling over its own step and sliding across the hall.
Seeing this, Raiden facepalmed.
It will clearly take a lot of training for him and Woolie both.
----------------------------------
Two days later, Woolie shed its wool for the first time, and now it was time for the market.
