247 The Core Whip 2

The core was refresh after a snowfall and ready to begin a new day, birds were chirping on some distance, the complete scenario was admirable and fascinating but what was with this gale, where it came from?

It was beginning of the dawn and a new day.

"You should accompany me," Jen heard a low voice, she looked up and a man was standing there, he seemed humble from his appearance, and ways.

The man came to bring her along but as soon as he saw her forehead, he lowered his head, this girl was punished by expert severely and the pasted text on her forehead was sign of anger.

He dare not to think how this girl offended expert?

This also means whatever task she will be given, it should be harsher.

Jen stood up and walked silently, she knew if she thought anything, this man would interrupt her and possibly she will be blamed for another crime.

"Since you are thoughtful, you should watch the west side while I will guard the east," he pointed the both directions precisely, Jen sighed deeply, she was caught again.

This was her first punishment for speaking lie according to the text.

Wast side was the area where most precious herbs were going through a very complicated process in which these herbs would grow from the soil and the farming was done by Core Expert.

These under process herbs face dangers whole day, the beasts of this part were very strong and they could destroy the whole land by footslogging, the core expert handover this land to some respected members but today this responsibility was given as punishment.

"What should I guard against?" Jen could see a vast land with muddy craters.

"This is precious land keep in your mind if anything happened or beasts footslogged, you will be responsible and perhaps whipped," the members of the core heard about this girl yesterday and also that she kept ignoring the manners despite knowing that core expert was offended.

They pitied her situation.

When she heard that beasts will come and need to secure these muddy craters, she felt like weeping, why would beasts come here unless they like to wade in the mud.

Both departed to secure their directions.

Soon, she could see few beasts were wandering around the region, it was not small area, several hundred square millimeters muddy craters needed Jen to remain on guard.

"Don't set foot inside the boundary," as she was thinking to venture through the mud, someone grimly reminded her, the voice was same she heard yesterday, but the tone was little tired.

Jen thought to use her spear as weapon to stop these beasts, but where was her storage bracelet? She remembered yesterday a man who was asking for seeds s.n.a.t.c.hed it and she didn't gathered the scattered things.

She tapped her feet and reached the other part where beasts were wandering, she broke a big bough from a tree and herd them away.

Few beasts returned back while few were looking at her furiously, they came here to eat the precious seeds, and this girl was trying to stop them with bough? how lowly creature to not possess a weapon?

Jen could not understand beast stares.

"Go and fight with them before they destroy the farm," she was whipped, it was reminder for her to be careful.

This was true, as soon as the voice reminded, the beasts jumped at her with all might, they were sure to hold her back while few of them will get to the farm.

The bough was broken with their sharp teeth and Jen had to use her dominion to save herself, the beasts were unable to break it but how long this dominion will keep her safe?

She was not holding any weapon when she needed it badly, Jen disarmed a part of her armor and starting using it as weapon, it was straight belt from her waist.

After making sure that this belt cannot be used as weapon, she threw it aside.

These beasts were lower than her Cultivation level, she opened her Attribute of Light and slashed toward these beasts, as soon as they saw her slash light they jumped back in the thick woods, though this girl possess no weapon still she was not weak.

Jen felt at ease but before she could breath in relief, she saw the other side was getting a huge number beasts, it seemed they were organizing themselves for a battle, they wanted to get rid this guard and enter the farm before evening.

It was morning and they could think few ways to fight with this girl, that's why beasts gathered around to make a move.

Jen hurried to stop them in the middle, she was sweating at the numbers of these beasts, she used her Light as weapon and send as many slashes as she could, the beasts who were initially organized got scattered with this sudden strike, they were running around to spare their bodies from this Light.

Finally she has something to defend the boundary, she saw few beasts trying to benefit from this situation and enter in the farm, she gave a slash with some lingering flames of her fury, this resulted their bodies started injured severely, they stepped back but too late to act, they were killed.

Jen was shocked, she thought that it would only cause a small damage an they would stop proceeding to enter in the farm but their burned bodies were too much to witness.

She kept herself limited to use the Light to compel them disperse and don't enter in the farm.

It worked only for an hour, now the bigger beasts start to appear, and they seemed resolute to not leave or submit, they were little resistant too.

They attacked her from different directions and despite the protection of her dominion she was struggling to force them back, few beasts who were with stronger levels opened their mouths and broke her dominion after some time.

Jen ascended in the air with thumping heart, she barely escaped sharp teeth of a beast, it was near her neck when the dominion broke.

Jen again tried to stable herself amid the beasts and attached this time with the help of her fury, the beasts who were indecisive to move back were dispersed with her sharp attacks, after an hour struggle they went back leaving her at tether ends.

Jen swept a glance around the farm, it was mid noon, she absorbed essence from her surrounding to replenish her strength, she was thinking to create a barrier around this farm to protect in case more powerful beasts appear or if they all decided to attack at once.

But the question was how she will make it?

All West region was bright with the light, and the muddy craters slowly absorbed the wetness or it was the light from sky that absorbed it, who know? Jen has no time from morning to mid noon to witness the farm closely.

She was tired now.

Since she cannot use any Apt.i.tude, she could solely relay on her Attribute to fight against these beasts and save the farm, the most pressing issue for now was her declining strength, from morning she was facing beasts and their number every time increase, if this went on, she soon will be become their first meal and then they will enter in the farm.

It was nearly impossible to create any kind of barrier around this large area, even if she tried she would fail in the end.

The only way was to stop them whenever beasts lurk around, she deeply sighed because she was ready to use her second level fury to force them back if not then kill these brainless.

She looked back at the woods, there was no sign of invasion from them, she ascended and reached different parts to make sure that the farm was safe, it was strange that more beasts did not appear even after waiting half an hour.

Did they decide to accept defeat? They should be else the number of kills would increase, right?

"You are not careful enough," another whip brought her out of her daze.

She felt strong urge to whip this expert instead, where was the danger? Well, it was right on her head.

The flying beast flapped it's wing and brought her in reality, there were few more who were looking greedily at the farm, they were with sharp and long beaks to dig out the seeds and enjoy a delightfull feast today.

Jen was not seeing them, they were real and probably ready to pounce at the farm land, her heart dropped.

It was their strategy to tire up the guard first with their numbers and then easily get the feast with the help of these flying creatures.

Jen stood up for a fierce battle.
