Chapter 8 - The Beast Territory

After getting home, Jason was trouble with how he could get the blood of a beast with his low realm without getting killed in the process and since he has no one who could help him makes him miss his father but the fact remain the same that if he even wants to get strong before the tournament, then he will have to get the beast blood.

Two days went by and Jason was still busy kicking trees as if he has finally given up on the hunt.

"So when are you going to hunt for the beast blood master," asked the bracelet when he saw Jason was making any attempts.

"Once I am done with my preparation" reply Jason.

"What preparation are you talking about because I didn't see you making any preparation," asked the bracelet.

"What exactly did you think I am doing right now if not making preparation" reply Jason with annoyance.

"You call kicking trees as making preparation," asked the bracelet.

"Do you expect me to just match into the beast's territory and get the blood" replies Jason?

"At least you know you will be benefitting from it if you were to succeed," said the bracelet.

"Benefit my ass, how do you expect me to survive a fight against a beast that is stronger than me," asked Jason.

"And who told you that you would be fighting a beast" replied the bracelet.

"What do you mean" asked Jason puzzle by the bracelet word.

"You don't have to battle a beast to get their blood. look kid in the beast world, there is only one rule which is the survival of the fittest. So there likely going to be a battle going on at least every day" reply the bracelet.

"You mean I don't have to get my hands dirty and just wait patiently for a beast to do the fighting for me," said Jason with a smile on his face.

"Get which hands dirty, please let's not go there. But yes, all you have to do is locate where there is a battle and that's all" reply the bracelet.

"But wait a minute, how is the blood going to be useful to me if the beast is dead," asked Jason.

"As long as it hasn't been long that the beast was dead, you can still use the blood" reply the bracelet.

"Alright since it can also be done that way, then tomorrow we are going hunting," said Jason before continuing kicking the tree.

After he was done with his training, Jason went home to inform his mom about the plan but did not tell her that he will be going into the beast territory instead he told her he will be spending some time in the woods training for some days which she agreed to.

Early in the morning while everyone has not woken up from their sleep, the bracelet forcefully woke him up. Before leaving the fox family territory, Jason turned to give the tent a look before walking into the wood.

"Don't worry kid, as long as you are careful with the way you move when you get there" said the bracelet seeing how scared Jason is.

After walking deep into the woods and passing through the lake. Jason was able to arrive at the beast's territory before it gets dark. Standing and the boundary that separates the beast territory from the fox family territory. deciding to spend the night in a tree while still in the fox family territory since it won't be safe for him in the beast territory.

"Boom"

An explosion woke Jason up in the morning.

"What is that sound," said Jason as he jumped up in fright.

"Looks like you won't be spending a long time in search of beasts fighting" replied the bracelet.

"So they are finally at it," said Jason with a smile on his face.

"Seen like it, but you don't have to hurry," said the bracelet.

"Why shouldn't I" ask Jason.

"Only if you want to get yourself killed then feel free to go watch the battle and claim the blood" replies the bracelet.

"So how am I going to take the blood on time," asked Jason.

"Not now, right now their battle is at its peak. So we are going to rush in when they are close to ending the fight" reply the bracelet.

Finally holding himself back after listening to the bracelet words, Jason begins to wait patiently as he watched the beast territory from where he stood with explosions all over the place and it seem like it is not going to end anytime soon.

After waiting under a tree until it was very hot in the afternoon, the explosion that has been going on in the beast territory since dew, finally reduce. With a happy expression on his face, Jason asked.

"They should be done with the fight by now, right".

"Calm down kid, rushing in like this will only get you killed" replied the bracelet.

"But the noise has gone down a lot which could only mean that a winner has finally emerged from the fight," said Jason.

"You are right and at the same time wrong, they might be deciding to make the last move that would end the fight, so what a little long" reply the bracelet.

Holding in, Jason lay on the ground as he begins to wait just as the bracelet instructed him to, and it didn't take long before another explosion occurs but after the explosion, the whole beast territory settles down.

"What the hell, that is how I would have lost my precious life if I were to rush in" mutter Jason to himself as he begins to sweat on his forehead.

"See that, you would have been caught in that explosion if you didn't listen to my advice," said the bracelet.

"And I will give you credit for that, so can I go in now," asked Jason with a smile on his face.

"Yes you can but be careful not to run into a beast" reply the bracelet.

Not waiting time, Jason run at his top speed as he went into the beast's territory.
