Day had turned to night.

Without Tamas help it was a difficult journey to get a fire set up.

Especially trying to get a fire set up while dying of hunger.

I had got it eventually but it was difficult.

Even after setting up the fire I also had to cook the boar.

'Weird how reliant I became on Tama, she provided me food, shelter, and protection, only now can I really appreciate how much of a help Tama had been' I think while I turn the meat I had on the fire over.

It was the second time I had started grilling.

At first I thought that I would only eat a whole leg but even after eating that my body still needed more energy so I put another boar leg onto the fire.

Looking over I could see my spear but no longer was it in its transformed state.

After the battle ended and I cut the aether flow, the spear gradually devolved back from its transformed state back into the spear that I had created for me.

It was after consuming the whole boar that I was finally satisfied and ready to go and explore.

I decided that I would go towards the giant tree.

Between the giant tree and me was a foreboding forest.

Once I pass the treeline and go into the forest I won't be able to see much.

From up here on the hilltop I could see that the canopies of the forest were all touching.

That wouldn't be so bad as long as there were gaps for sunlight but the tree branches were full of leaves blocking all the natural sunlight that I could have gotten.

Preparing myself I head into the forest.

There wasn't much action in the immediate forest.

There were the occasional boar or 2 but after I had killed the first one it was exponentially easier to deal with others.

Even then the only reason I even struggled to kill the boar in the first place was that I couldn't pierce its hide. 𝘧r𝗲𝑒𝔀𝘦𝙗𝓃oν𝑒l.𝐜𝗼m

After I had learned that I could reinforce my spear with aether the boars held no threat to me.

But it was because they held not threat that I am still at 9/4.

*Growl* x4

It happened as I was killing another boar for the fourth time since entering this forest.

I heard 4 distinct growls.

Coming from the right of me were two wolves and the front another 2.

Circling around me the wolves got ready to pounce.

I set myself into a ready stance then flickered my eyes over the two pairs waiting for them to pounce.

'There!'

The first pair pounced on me.

I sidestepped to the left avoiding both attacks.

As I did I swiped my already reinforced spear up, slashing the neck of the first wolf.

However the second pair were able to sneak up on me.

"AH"

The two wolves were both able to take a chunk out of my right leg.

With my right leg disabled I wasn't able to dodge the next attack.

Claws and teeth tore into my left leg.

With both legs out of commission I fell to the ground.

I stared into the waiting eyes of the lead wolf as he stood above me, victory in his eyes.

But I wouldn't go that easily.

I didn't have enough room to use my spear so instead of trying to pick it up I dropped it to the ground freeing my hand.

I grab his scruff all the while channeling my aether into my hands.

All it did was sharpen my nails and harden my hand but that was enough.

I grabbed the wolf that was on my chest about to take a bite out of my neck.

Digging my fingers into his neck until I finally drew blood.

The other 2 wolves came over to help but it was already too late.

I had thrown the wolf I was holding off of me after I had completely pierced and crushed it's windpipe, leaving it to drown in its own blood.

The wolf that I had slashed in the beginning was already dead having bled out over the wound I had inflicted.

I pick back up my spear then try to stand up but my legs fail me.

Instead of trying and failing to stand again I gradually scoot myself over to a nearby tree stabbing at the two wolves intermittently to have them back off.

When I had my back to the tree the wolves started to get cautious with their attacks.

They must have taken me for a wounded animal which are known to be especially aggressive when wounded.

I stabbed with one hand and with the other I started the process of healing one of my legs.

A green glow spread to my injured leg and in a matter of seconds the wound was healed and mobility restored to the leg.

Seeing that I was starting to heal, the wolves were starting to get restless.

They upped the frequency of their attacks, starting to get more aggressive instead of slowly trying to overwhelm me.

I didn't waste the time I had been given and started up the healing on my second leg all the while poking the wolves.

They started to get more and more desperate but they couldn't break through my defense without being seriously injured.

It seems like they knew when to cut their losses as after they saw they weren't going to be able to kill me before I heal they went over to the corpses under my watchful eye and started dragging them back to someplace.

After they were gone I went to the boar corpse that I had previously killed before the wolves had arrived and started to skin it.

Letting the boar's blood out while I started on starting a fire. free𝚠𝚎𝚋𝒏𝚘ѵ𝐞l.𝑐om

After I was done with the fire I put the boar on to cook and checked my system messages.
