“it would be best if I found somewhere to sleep for the night before I head to deep in,” Aura thought to herself, she was getting so tense that she didn’t even talk to herself.

“step one, find a large tree, the tree needs to hide you from both below and above” she slowly said to herself in a low voice as she tried to recall what she had learned about sleeping in the forest.

After searching around for a bit Aura found a good tree and jumped towards the top, and after landing on a good strong branch, she set up a few protective talismans to wake her if something got close and to hide her sleeping spot from others.

Once the sun was rising a fast streak of silver jumped down from the tree Aura had slept in and moved deeper into the forest. This streak was, of course, Aura who moved fast through the what was called the tree line. This being the outermost part of the forest and have very few magical beasts, this is also where most of the sects on the continent take their disciples to train. The tree line is still not a safe area, but it was not unheard of that someone could get through it without meeting a single magical beast doing the one week trip it normally was.

Aura was speeding along moving in big leaps only rarely touching the ground. Spending most of her time airborne.

Suddenly in the middle of her leap, her body was violently thrown off course, her forward momentum was stopped instantly and her body shot to the left.

The very next instant a nearly invisible blade of wind shoot by where she had been but a moment ago, hitting a tree a bit away.

“so that is how it feels to narrowly avoid death,” Aura said voice shaking a little as she readied herself to face the attacker.

Aura moved to a move open area and as she did a few move blades of wind was shot her way, which she again dodged narrowly by moving ever so slightly while still in the air. She was already using her gentle waveform and her soul force to the fullest to pull and push her own body allowing for movements midair.

“that’s a long-tailed silver wind fox” Aura confirmed to herself as she saw her opponent.

“chacha-chacha-chow!” the silver furred long-tailed fox let out clearly angry that this strange being had not died under its attack.

“it just had to be something like this I ran into. Great luck my ass! If this is an omen I’m so dead” Aura shouted out her frustration. Aura knew the strengths and weaknesses of her fighting style and range was one of the things she was lacking at her current level of power.

“if I can’t run then I will fight you little shit” Aura shouted, she was truly angry right now and the image of a Queen was nowhere to be seen.

With Auras current strength her gentle waveform could not dodge the wind blades the fox was making from its tail in close range and as such was forced to stay at a range and simply dodge around without an end in sight to this fight.

Both Aura and the fox got more and more angry as the fight dragged on as neither could do anything to the other. While Aura could try to go in close and deal with it she did not want to take this risk.

The fox seeing how Aura did not dare get close to it, found this to be her weakness and decided to jump closer to her as it attacked. This put Aura within the range where she could not dodge in time. As she saw this she threw herself violently to the ground.

“you fucking fox don’t think I will let you live after this little stunt!” she screamed in fury as she quickly got back up and put some distends between them.

Aura was truly angry right now both at herself for not thinking that the fox would do something about the deadlock and at the fox for almost hitting her.

“clap!”

Aura clapped her hands together and in the next instant she had a beautiful fan in each hand. These were Auras pride, two angel forged weapons with powerful water enchants.

“NOW! YOU! DIE!” Aura screamed as she swung her fans towards the fox. At this, dozens of golden streaks of light flew towards the fox.

The fox upon seeing this quickly raised its tail to shield its body. But as the golden light hit, it let out screams of pain.

Aura did not wait to see her first attack land before she made two more. This time, however there was no golden light and only blades made of water shot towards the fox. The golden light was mostly nothing more than an illusion and only twelve was hiding a real blade of water.

More pained screams could be heard as twelve more blades of water hit their target.

“clank” was heard as Aura brought the fans together and as she did six blades of water sent out from each of them. Aura smiled and both of the fans disappeared into a green light that was emitted from the ring on her right hand.

There was no more sound or movement from the fox. And there was little left of its once large tail and its body was also little more than a bloody mess.

Aura was breathing deeply and was looking exhausted. “that might have been a little overkill,” she said as she looked at the messy corpse of the long-tailed silver wind fox.

“I can’t stay here any longer, the fight might have been noticed by other magical beasts” she added to her own mutters and she quickly moved away from the scene.

“this was the first time I killed anything with my weapons. They really are very powerful, as would be expected of a real angel forged weapon, even more so one given to a Queen by the sect“ Aura thought to herself as she moved on.

“thinking back I was stupid for not taking out my weapon and deal with the fox quickly, if there had been other magical beasts nearby it could have turned out ugly, or even if I had been hit by that attack at the end” she said as she slowly went over the battle a little ago.
