Jayden exhaled sharply. The beast's Hp was higher than when he'd first spotted it weeks ago… it had probably been hunting and growing stronger.
But it was still within the range Jayden could handle. He'd done his research. Sabertooth Flares, despite their fire-based nature, had a notable vulnerability to toxins. Something about their accelerated metabolism making poisons spread faster through their systems.
Which was exactly why he'd been practicing with his Poison Secretion ability all week.
Jayden took a deep breath, centering himself. This was it. The fight he'd been preparing for. The battle with the leader of forest.
He moved through the forest with predatory grace. Every step was calculated, every movement designed to minimize sound. He approached the cave from downwind, making sure the beast couldn't catch his scent.
When he was about fifty meters away, he stopped, positioning himself atop the branch of a large tree. From there, he had a clear line of sight to the Flare.
