Hey guys, Aidka's here!
I will not say much. The next few days will probably continue with irregulars releases like this until I'm feeling better, so I hope you guys can understand.
I'm trying to keep a count of the missing chapters, and writing when I'm feeling better, but in the end, my health is first, and I don't want to force myself to write when I'm feeling unwell.
Enjoy today's chapters, and with a bit of luck, I'll post again tomorrow.
With love, Aidka :p

Truthfully, Bloed did not need long to discover the thod the hunter was using to track him.
He was following a scent.
But it was not Bloed's scent. Bloed had made sure to eliminate the scent of his body before starting the hunt.
Instead, the hunter was following a scent he left on Bloed when they fought before.
Bloed was not sure when he did it. But at so point during their encounter, the A-Rank had left a special scent in Bloed's body. Then, he had used that scent to track him.
Bloed only noticed it when he realized the A-Rank hunter was chasing after him.
Unfortunately, even if Bloed knew how he was being tracked, he could not get rid of the scent now.
The best way to get rid of that scent was using water to wash his body. But he needed a considerable amount of water if he wanted to do that and there was no way he could find such amount of water around here.
Furthermore, even if he sohow found a source of water, washing his body ant giving the A-Rank enough ti to catch up to him.
In other words, Bloed needed to think about another thod.
Fortunately, Bloed's quick mind quickly ca to a solution.
He needed to use a stronger scent to hide that special scent.
And Bloed had the perfect candidate.
Blood.
But that was not enough. If the hunter's sense of sll was as good as Bloed thought, he would realize Bloed's intention quickly and change his target from the special scent to the scent of blood.
Thus, Bloed needed a distraction.
With a thought, Bloed ordered Oculus to find another contestant. Oculus followed his orders and used its eye to observe the surroundings.
Soon, Bloed found an appropriate target.
Without hesitation, he moved towards him.
In less than three minutes, Bloed was in front of a wolfkin contestant.
The wolfkin noticed Bloed at the sa ti. When he saw Bloed, he got ready to fight.
Bloed did not bother to speak to the wolfkin. Instead, he directly attacked him.
Naturally, the wolfkin retaliated.
The wolfkin was pretty strong for a B-Rank. Unfortunately, he was weaker than Bloed. In fact, he was noticeably weaker than Atai.
However, Bloed's intent was not to defeat him. The wolfkin had another use.
Instead, he used his saber to make a cut in the wolfkin's arm during one of his attacks.
Afterward, he took a bit of blood and used it to suppress the scent in his body.
In a few seconds, Bloed was able to block the scent completely and replaced it with the sll of blood.
The wolfkin held his injured arm and stared at Bloed strangely and warily. In fact, he was looking at Bloed with a bit of fear.
For a mont, the wolfkin could not help but wonder if Bloed was doing a kind of strange ritual.
Bloed, however, did not care about that. Instead, he focused on Oculus to know how far the A-Rank was.
To his surprise, he was already less than one kiloter away!
For an A-Rank, that distance could be closed in seconds!
Bloed did not hesitate. First, he put Leto back into his storage device. Then, he took an artifact out of it and used it to scan the wolfkin in front of him
A few seconds later, Bloed's appearance changed completely, turning the sa as the wolfkin in front of him.
Watching the stunned wolfkin in front of him, Bloed grinned.
"I advise you to run away. An A-Rank is coming for us."
The wolfkin was stunned. But soon, he felt a powerful pressure approaching.
"I found you, boy!" A voice ca from the distance.
Instantly, the wolfkin's expression changed. Without waiting for the A-Ran to arrive, he turned around and ran for his life.
At the sa ti, Bloed ran away in the opposite direction.
From here onwards, everything was up to luck.
When the A-Rank arrived, he found two identical wolfkin running in different directions. Even their slls and movents were very similar.
The A-Rank was startled. But he did not need to think for long to understand what was happening.
Although he did not know exactly Bloed did it, he knew it was a trick to escape from his tracking.
" Quite good, boy."
With a smile, the hunter decided to chase after one of the wolfkin.
Fortunately for Bloed, the one he followed was the real wolfkin.
Bloed sighed in relief. It seed like his bet paid off.
But he was not out of danger yet. It was just a matter of ti before the A-Rank discovered he was fooled. And by then, there was a chance of him coming for Bloed again.
Bloed had to use this ti as much as he could.
The first thing he did was to summon Leto again. He then rode the wolf at maximum speed.
anwhile, he ordered Oculus to search for more contestants.
He needed to make sure the A-Rank could not trace his scent again.
