In the end

Bill dedicated all his time for healing his core and making green herbal soups from the medicinal herbs that he has gathered previously but didn't leave the safe area and wander around the outer region of the forest while he is injured in the fear of being hunted by that mad fox

he also began to train again in the spear technique and study the elementary spells that are recorded in the techniques script section

"i need to gather some meat as my supply has been almost depleted and i wont have anything to eat if this continues!" while he is hiding from the beast in his safe area his supply of meat is also being depleted also with his careful eating and considerations for the future days to come but now after spending five days of healing his wounds ,training and also cultivating his meat supply is on the lower end

"my injuries are about to be fully healed and i also gained an inspiration in the spear technique that i could use it more profoundly in the battles to come with less consumption of mana"he also gained a flash of inspiration during one of his training sessions that he found a method to use his mana efficiently during casting spear spells "i was doing it all wrong previously as if i was forcefully filling a cup with a large bucket of water so most of the water will be wasted for sure"

"i will need another session of healing with medicinal herbs and breathing cultivation then i would be ready to go!"

during his stay in the safe area there was massacres happening in the outer region of the forest as a rank 1 forest with a scar on it's neck was killing and eating every beast it meets with extreme anger while it's objective was searching for the human that has wounded it to this state by taking it by surprise attack

after searching for his tracks during this period of time,it has finally found the place he is staying within but there was something protecting this place like a mana shield that would glow every time the fox tried to enter as it kept crashing into it with it's strong body but to no avail so it gave up and chose to wait around this area and keep watch to wait for Bill to come out and deliver himself to it

as it kept roaring and chasing the animals and the beasts with extreme hate and anger as it pounced on a deer as it bite on it's neck killing it instantly while the fox's red eyes glowed under the moonlight like an evil creature as it roared to the sky with a very loud sound

even Bill at that time opened his eyes awakening from his cultivation state just by that roar "it appears that the fox has finally found me" he was surprised for a moment but then his face turned serious"no matter what, i'm now confident that i could at least cripple it this time or even kill it!" he was finally ready for the battle between both of them

in the next morning Bill readied all his weapons as he made two spears but weren't as sharp as his main spear and tied them to his back then went to the outer region of the forest while he was walking carefully while sensing his surrounding and looking back and forth for his enemy he sensed something strange about the outer region

"i didn't encounter a single animal nor a beast during all this time but why?"he was really confused as during his previous hunting journeys he would see animals and beasts occasionally and from time to time but now he hasn't seen a single animal neither did he hear any sounds, it was completely silent without the sounds of even birds

"was it because of that fox?" he related these strange happenings with the fox as it has the power to do so

he also saw lots and lots of blood occasionally during his walk as the metallic smell of blood in the outer region was too strong even Bill was frowning from the strong smell

Bill kept walking and searching his surrounding till he has reached the middle of the outer region and there was still silence in this area but then he heard a roar coming from behind the trees to the right

he readied his spear and also stood on a full alert while his gaze was on the area to the right as he heard the sound of a beast running at full speed in his direction "it has finally come" Bill murmured slowly

after the sound was very close it suddenly disappeared without a hint of it's direction but Bill still was on full alert watching everything around him

but then suddenly he sensed a surprise attack coming from behind him as he dodged quickly to avoid it

the attack missed him and crashed into a nearby tree that was marked from the attack with claws deep into it

Bill then saw the fox emerging from behind the trees to the left looking at him savagely while drooling form it's mouth as if hungry for his flesh

"so you want revenge huh and can't live without killing me ,guess what that is also my intention as i wont let you go this time!" Bill was increasing his grip on the spear tightly with anger in his eyes

surprisingly the first to charge at the other was actually Bill as he raised his spear while circulating his mana and ran towards the fox at full speed then threw one of his secondary spears at the fox "take this!!" his mana was directed to his right hand as he threw that spear from a close distance

the fox was not shocked or surprised as it made a claw attack towards the incoming spear but then came the surprise as the spear penetrated it's attack heading towards it but was then deflected by it's tail

but suddenly it saw Bill increase his charge speed as he appeared in front of it instantly while thrusting his spear towards it face

"haaaa!" Bill used his strongest attack from the start wanting to finish the battle quickly
