Heart Cultivation - 302 She Is Human
She Is Human
The hunter looked at the half beast.
“I am not sure what you are talking,” the hunter looked around to see if the half beast was alone or there were other people from his tribe.
“So you human can be lethal for other human particularly when one cannot defend oneself,” the half beast leader, he was not blind and had seen this man trying to grab her neck.
“She was running after stealing my treasure,” the hunter gave a false excuse so that he could kill her and nobody could question him.
Jen looked at the man when she heard false excuse, “What did I steal by the way?” there was visible killing intent shrouding this man and he strongly wished to kill her but there was no reason because she never had seen this man and never had been in this place before.
“You are not allowed to question,” the hunter looked at her with threatening eyes, he indeed wanted her to feel fear.
“And who set this rule?” her desert attribute slowly emitted an aura, she had to find the reason why this man was after her.
“There is no such rule but I think humans are addicted to create false excuses,” half beast looked at the hunter, “I never saw her here then how could she steal something moreover you are clearly stronger than her,” half beast spoke.
“You are always this blunt, I would go back and complain the first leader,” the hunter was smart, he understood that half beast would not leave this matter so it was better to not create fuss until he find this girl alone and then kill without much ado.
Half beast scrutinized the leaving human, and then turned toward Jen, “This necklace, does it belong to you?” he raised up the simple necklace in front of her.
Jen looked at the necklace and checked her empty neck, sure she lost her necklace and it was the same, “This necklace belongs to me,” she claimed.
“May I ask why are venturing in this part of the Celestial Sphere, did not anyone tell to keep a safe distance?” he was surprised that she was wandering alone, and from her appearance she seemed to escaped from a battle.
“I never heard about this place, I only wanted to find a secluded cave for cultivation,” Jen slightly bowed, she should pay some regards when this half beast was not giving evil vibes.
“But this place is not suitable for cultivation and almost all cultivators are aware of this fact,” he gestured with his hand all around, it seemed that infinite autumn was the only season and there were dried shrubs in surrounding, the fallen leaves has covered the ground.
How could she know about it, she aimlessly reached this place, and was stopped by that person.
Now the question was whether she should leave this place and find a better one or remain contented with her sources, the presence of essence in surrounding was equally necessary else no matter how discreetly she spent, the sources would empty out.
If she remained this place, the man would also come looking for her, and she cannot waste her time in the trivial battles, as every battle cost the brimming Acmes Pair get dry.
The half beast saw her in dilemma, in his eyes this girl never was here and perhaps accidently came here, but why the human wanted to kill her, he was forced to think that this girl must have offended him years ago but she don’t seemed that old enough.
Moreover, the human was looking suspicious, these few people which were part of the human tribe were not reliable because they always broke the rules and also human tribe greatly favored these few strange men, he was keeping eyes at them but could not find anything for prove.
Today, half beast wanted to uncover some truths about them but if that man really went to complain the first leader then he would be questioned instead, there was only way to bring this along so that she could relate the truth.
The human always find fault with half beast race and since he went after threating him, it was clear that he was gone to complain about him.
Hunters were not afraid of the half beast because they were stronger than them since they wanted to remain hidden they only both with complains but first leader don’t the same, he disliked such kind of petty complains and usually punish whoever find guilty.
The human tribe only pretend to care the words of first leader.
The question which bothered him much was that she was also human, would she relate the truth, or she intend to not relate it at all, it was possible that she would try to settle with battle but blame would remain there.
Usually people like to decide their grudges silently rather than claiming openly.
“I think I should leave this place,” Jen spoke after deliberation, probably it would take her some time to find a silent place but it would worth since she don’t intend to wander for sources anytime soon.
Half beast nodded, his conclusion was to the point, “But you cannot leave like this,” he was leader of the half beast tribe, if he was blamed something false then the human tribe would find fault with him in future too, that would be equal to lose face and fear in others.
“I did not understand, I was only here to find a silent place since this senior told about the scarcity of the essence that means it is not suitable place,” Jen explained with a deep sigh.
“Alright, but you have to come and explain the situation to the first leader, did you forget that man left saying something against me,” he might not have showed patience and gentleness but the girl seemed harmless and small, moreover her conversation was serene without any hint of vanity.
“But why he would complain about senior?” it was shocking that the man was serious despite the fact that he wanted to kill her and was the first to come in her way.
“You are small to understand, I give my words that after you explain the situation, I will personally bring you out of this place safely and you can go and find a better place,” half beast sincerely spoke.
Jen thought for a while and nodded, “I will go with the senior,” if the matter was this serious then she cannot leave the half beast in problem especially when she was the one who became the center of problem.
There was a bivouac with the flag, in the middle of the tents, it was tribe of the Red Riders, there was slight fog around the tents, one might not be able to breath in this fog, a man was sitting on an altar, he was wearing a complete red hoody gown with the specific sign, the hunter was standing in front of him but still unable to sneak how the evolved beast looked like.
Hunters were not afraid of anyone in this region but they were still clueless about the true strength of the evolved beasts, considering this the hunters were careful but they were trying their best to finish the tribe of half beasts because half beasts were completely impressed with the first tribe, this first leader was unbiased and this was strong reason that despite complaining several times, the hunters were still not able to reach their goal.
If the tribe of half beasts could be wiped out, the next target would be Red Riders tribe, if they could completely kill all other tribes then they could feel some freedom and work openly at least in this region.
Presently he found a supreme right on his door, and could not kill immediately just because of darn half beast, hunter was displeased, he was powerful yet he has to stop right away.
His wrist was still emitting fury flames that means the supreme girl was still around, he cannot waste his time and has to do something before she leave, it would be difficult quest to find her again.
The first leader has given orders to some of the half beasts to spy these few humans, because the fog effected almost all other humans and half beasts but these few humans remain intact while standing in the middle of the fog.
These few human suddenly appeared out of nowhere and became the backbone of human tribe, the human tribe never thought to break rules set by him but after the appearance these humans, they became arrogant to some extent.
The reason was clear, these humans were backing the human tribe, this was not simple matter, it might result additional endless battles between the tribes, though Red Riders were not afraid to shed the blood but it has been a while since they last blood bathed their robes and hands and they wanted to remain peaceful, well until a wish to remain peaceful should not be considered as weakness, they would prefer peace.
“You again came here,” the first leader heard that a human wanted to complain about the half beast, it has many years still the humans and half beasts were at logger heads with each other.
Evolved beast was fed up with these tiny complains of everyday, the hunter remain silent too.
