I think that the reason the author is taking so ong to come back is because he's trying to finish writing the fox hunting festival arc first before starting to publish , so to make sure that the book doesn't become boring and cringe. I mean most WN lose their appeal after 300- 400 chapters because of lack of inspiration and lazy writing. The fox hunting festival is probably the most teased arc in the book at the moment. Also he is probably trying to create new iteresting caracters for this arc ( personality and divine abilities) that we will probably see again someday in future chapters and with how many skills and divine abilities MC has is hard to cover it all and make sure that anything wasn't forgoten. I mean when was the last time you heard of innate strenght or innate agility being mentioned or used. Let's not forget about the resorces that can get gained at the end especially the fruits with divine abilities .
