10 Injured!

Ignoring the previous incident, he walked further into the forest in hopes of finding better prey to harvest Exp from. He encountered many rabbits on his way deeper into the forest but chose to ignore them as they provided only 1 Exp, simply useless.

As he was walking through the forest he noticed a light coming from in front of him. He hurriedly ran towards this light and to his fortune, it was a small pond! He hadn't had a drink since he reincarnated! He ran to the pond's edge, threw his rucksack to the side and kneeled down, grabbing a hand full of water with his hands before he brought it up to his mouth and drank it.

"Ah! Refreshing water! You can never go without it!" On the topic of water, he realized he forgot to craft a waterskin! He slapped his forehead gently! He should've made one when he had the chance, and he didn't even hunt any rabbits on the way here! He screwed up! Well, no matter! At least he could finally see what his face looked like.

He waited for the ripples on the water to disappear before looking closely at the face that was reflected on the water's surface.

He had white hair, an average face, his two pupils were different, blue and red respectively. This face of his was strikingly similar to his past face. Did the mysterious voice in the void plan this? Well, it doesn't matter! I shall defeat all who stand in my way!

He stood up from the pond and grabbed the rucksack full of spears.

He put the strap over his neck and started walking deeper into the forest. Unknown to him, there was something watching him from behind.

Aloph just continued on his deeper into the forest. This time, once he encountered a rabbit he would instantly kill it with his spear. He would then use the Animal Processing Module to take only the fur and leather.

He placed those two items into his rucksack that was beginning to get full already, probably because of the spears. He then decided to remove all the useless self-made spears.

After dumping his spears he looked up at the sky and noticed it was starting to get dark out. The sky becoming a darker orange.

Aloph thought it would be a good idea to head back instead of going deeper and potentially getting lost, so he started his journey back. Five minutes into his journey back he suddenly felt a chill down his back and ducked without hesitation! Right after he ducked a large animal jumped from behind him and then landed in front of him, missing him.

Aloph instantly jumped back and took a look at his attacker! He was shocked at what he saw! A transparent wolf! "Are you fucking kidding me!? A spirt wolf? HERE!?" Aloph instantly began to book it in the opposite direction as he tried to remember how he was supposed to deal with Spiritual wolves! The wolf instantly began chasing after him, not to eat him, but to kill him!

Aloph took many turns as he ran, trying to shake off the wolf even for a single second! Of course, the fucking wolf just ran through the obstacles! When Aloph looked back and realized this he exclaimed out loud in anger! "Shit! Shit, shit, shit!" As he was running through the forest he accidentally hit an object and fell! When Aloph looked back to see what he tripped on, he just wanted to die at that point! It was the fucking leftover meat from his animal processing!

Just as he was thinking about killing himself at that moment, the spirit wolf jumped at him from behind! Aloph was snapped back into reality and rolled to the right, narrowly escaping its bite. He wasn't left uninjured though. His arm got hit by its claws and it was now profusely bleeding. Spiritual wolves weren't meant for their strength, no. They were meant as the bane to warriors! Any physical defense was nullified in front of this wolf, even his newly obtained technique was useless in front of it!

Aloph got up from the ground and resumed running! The wolf followed in hot pursuit! Just as he thought he would never remember the technique, he did! Why couldn't he just remember it instantly! The technique was called;

[Revolving Spirit Technique!

►By revolving your spiritual energy or Mental energy, you create a distortion within yourself momentarily. This is usually not harmful at all, however, if done in the correct way. It can be used to stun monsters who are not physical in nature.

►Note: Great for warriors who don't use any cultivation manuals!]

Why did the system suddenly display it in front of him!? Whatever!

Just as he was about to use it, he realized he didn't have any spiritual energy or Qi to revolve within himself! Dammit! When he thought he was about to die to a mere spiritual wolf he realized he had Exp! It was a form of energy, so why couldn't he just revolve that? He instantly began to move the energy known as Exp within himself. He made the energy move through his body multiple times before suddenly turning around and releasing it towards the wolf, it's concentration making it even more potent!

The wolf was obviously not ready to face such an attack as it thought the boy it was chasing was merely a child playing hunter! Before the wolf could even do anything, the energy hit the wolf and knocked it back towards a tree while stunned, it passed through leaving Aloph with only himself and the system!

[Ding! You used 2 Exp!]

Thanks, system, really helpful!

Aloph then looked over to where the wolf disappeared and confirmed it was gone, for now at least. He then slowly started to make his way back to the village. Still injured, he didn't want to spend any more time in this forest!
