Time went by within the endless forest where Aura was sitting within her small hideout silently cultivating.

After two months of closed-door cultivation, Aura had now reached the fourth level of the fourth realm. She had originally only wanted to enter the third level. But she reached it only a few days after going into closed-door training, and after thinking about it, she decided it would be better if she spent some more time to cultivate as she did not know when she would get the chance again, and she knew that she would need the strengths later on, she might even need it just to survive when she went a bit deeper into the forest.

“it’s no wonder the angels are so damn powerful. The fight all day long, get tons of combat experience and then after some fighting they break through into the next realms to easily” “I should have asked Holly for some advice long ago, if I had I might not have needed to truly risk my life as I do now” Aura said to herself as she got up from her months-long meditation.

Boom. Boom. Boom. Boom. Boom. Boom. Boom. Boom. Boom.

Putting on a thoughtful expression, Aura said in a low voice “I feel like this sound have been getting louder lately. If I didn’t try to focus on the smallest things back two months ago to avoid being surprised, I would never have noticed this noise. But now I can hear it without even trying”

Aura then left her small shelter and looked towards where she thought the sound came from.

“it’s coming from the sky,” Aura said looking into the sky, trying to spot anything in the far distance.

“it sure is a strange sound… sounds something like thunder but it’s never ending. Like a thundering waterfall but moving. Sure is strange” said to herself before looking around.

“it’s good to see nothing have changed here, would have sucked big time if some super magical beast was waiting for me to stick my head out” she added before carefully moving deeper into the great endless forest.

Aura moved very carefully and made sure to take many breaks so she was always full on energy. While she might just have had two breakthroughs she knew that where she currently was there is a large number of magical beasts of around the sixth great realm in strength.

And as such any fight, she could avoid would be a victory for her. She knew she still needed to fight sometimes, but she would rather choose her own battles.

“shit shit shit!” Aura screamed as she ran for her life, not far behind her a red tusk boar furiously following.

Boom! Could be heard moments after Aura dodged around a tree, telling her that the boar had rammed right into it.

“that makes the thirteenth tree you kissed ugly fucker” Aura shouted back over her shoulder as she kept running.

She had been chased by this magical beast for hours now and she was more angry than she had ever been in her whole life.

The red tusk boar was a magical beast with strengths on par with the late sixth realm and up. Aura believed this one to be around the mid-seventh realm, an opponent she could never hope to kill with her current level of power.

And as such had been fleeing ever since she had been found by it, while wondering around in what must have been its territory.

After the first few hours when she stopped hoping it would lose interest in the chase, she had begun to make it ram itself into trees hoping it would get tired of the chase and now the added pain and therefore give up.

Boom! “ha that makes fourteen sucker!” But now she just did it out of pure hatred.

Even in her anger, Aura had not forgotten that this really bad situation would turn truly horrible was she to run into other magical beasts so they had been running in a large circle of what had so far been a rather safe area.

Boom! “fuck that was a close call,” Aura said as she narrowly dodged behind a tree before the boar rammed into it.

“either it's getting faster or I’m getting tried before it is. And I fear it’s me getting tired” Aura said to herself as she kept running.

The boar seeing her almost get hit began to try even harder much to Auras dismay.

Boom! “shit I can’t keep doing this all day. Or I will end of like one of the trees” Aura said as she slowly began to panic.

ROAR! “not that way” Aura screamed as she turned and began to run in another direction.

ROAR!! “no definitely not that way” she added, as yet another terrifying roar was heard.

Boom! “fuck now is not the time to make more fucking noise!” Aura yelled at the boar as it rammed into yet another large tree.

ROAR! At this roar, Aura looked back over her shoulder only to turn back and increase her speed.

“well, that’s fucking great!” Aura screamed as a large tigerfox came out and began to join the chase.

“I wonder if I can somehow make them kill one another and leave me be,” she said as she once more dodged, making the boar ram into a large tree. Boom! Roar!

Upon seeing the red tusk boar slam into a large tree then tigerfox stopped giving chase to Aura and leapt at it taking this chance to get an easy meal.

Aura kept running leaving the two magical beasts to fight it out among themselves.

“well looks like the kings want me to live another day,” she said to herself as she stopped to take a small break and catch her breath.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Finally getting some rest, she noticed just how loud and close by the strange noise had become over the last few hours.

Taking a look towards the direction of the sound, she dropped her water bottle and stood there with her mouth wide open and eyes filled with shock.

“that’s. that’s. that’s a thunder crow! But it's so big!” Aura said as she stood there staring at the massive magical beast as it headed in her direction.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Every time it flapped its large wings the sound of thunder could be heard.

Thunder crows are dark purple crow magical beasts that fly with the speed of lightning. They can become very strong, and are known to be the fastest flying magical beasts in the world. They are mostly around the fourteenth to the sixteenth great realm in power, not something Aura could even dream about surviving a run in with. And this one was massive! It could easily carry a few people in its claw.

“why does it look like it's headed my way…. I mean it can’t possibly be flying towards me right” Aura thought as the large crow was getting closer and closer. “with that size it must be a lord….”
