She Transmigrated And Started Different Life - Chapter 495
These are now caves. There is not much food from start on. So any food is more than welcome.
The tide of creatures started gathering and moving to the tasty smelling package. Kendra put the food into one of the boxes and dug tiny holes on sides. Now all the creatures could smell tantalizing smell so they went there.
As they moved they could see a clear path towards the other side of the cave and Kendra yelled. ”Let’s go now! I don’t know will this work again!”
Everyone rushed as fast as they could and could clearly hear the box breaking and the slurping of the food. Not only that. As some of the creatures were crushed because of the tide, the rest of the creatures fought for their remains so something life fights tarted and moved the tide almost towards them.
Luckily they started moving on time as it seems this will not end anytime soon as more and more creatures became food for others.
Kendra felt bad for a second but knew that such a thing is not her fault as those creatures eat each other in case there is nothing else to eat anyway. As they stepped by the second safety room they saw again wiggly creatures, but this time their size was five times bigger than before and they were looking quite aggressive already as they neared.
As soon everyone entered Kendra shook her head. ”Let’s rest some and then we can continue after that. let me check if these creatures hate any of the powers or should I again add these things to pull them away.”
One of the young men shook his head. ”This cave is bigger than last, we need to find another way.”
Kendra nodded. ”I am happy to try any ideas. Think well and rest.”
She felt seriously tired. The girls this time all went to take long warm baths and not just simple washing up. Suddenly one of the men had ideas. ”Leader, what about smell and taste?”
”Smell and taste?” Kendra calmly looked at him. ”Explain.” Of course, she is not crazy not to listen to their ideas.
”Before I noticed that some of them could feel our presence, or better said they could smell us. What about finding something they hate this time.” He nibbled on his underlip as he was not sure will she accept this. After all, most fo leaders just do what they want and they had to follow.
In past tasks and quests, no one listened to his ideas but he still wanated to try.
”Good idea. Opposite effect… Do you have something that these creatures might hate?” She had no idea what worms might dislike or found displeasing.
”Any strong smell can do.” Everyone turned towards one of the cultivators and he pursed his lips. ”Fine. I’ll ask her. Rose, can you come out?”
A beautiful skunk came out of his bag and stretched. ”Yes?”
Kendra came forward and smiled at her. ”Can you help us with your protection essence?” She didn’t want to say stench as it might hurt her feelings.
”Yes. I heard you all talking. But I guess you all need to rest a bit. I can release my essence only three times. At that time you all have to cover your mouth with some sort of protection. It is quite strong.” The skunk lady agreed and then jumped into her companion’s bag again. ”Gonna sleep now. Call me when you need me.”
Kendra smiled and thanked the man. ”Colin, you are a wind user. No, wait… all wind users listen to me.”
They sleepily were trying to listen and Kendra made it quick. ”Think about the way how to control stench to make a path for us. Like that, we can rush to the other end without problems.”
They nodded and Kendra wanted to say more but saw them sleepily staring at her and waved her hand. ”Sleep. After rest, we will run again.”
As she dimmed the light, Kendra sighed. The time, they can’t feel time in this place. It might have passed just two days or ten days. Who knows?
She fell asleep and suddenly had a strange dream. Marcus? He was with some women that wanted to use his inner energy to…mate with him? Anger welled in her as she saw that. Next was him standing there and looking at her sadly as she floated above him.
It was not strange that she floated, but someone’s arms were tightly wrapped around her and felt like two claws that wouldn’t let her go. Marcus’s eyes became sadder the further she went and she could see his face in dee pain as she slowly disappeared.
Pain flashed through her body as she had that dream. After disappearing she just slept until she was naturally awake. Zami sat next to her in worry. ”Are you fine?”
Kendra blinked at her in wonder. ”Yes. Why?”
”You were having some sort of nightmare and then stopped moving. Luckily you woke up, you scared us quite a lot.” Bess came forward and touched her sweaty forehead. ”Look, you are sweating.”
Kendra chuckled and looked at the rest of the people. ”I know this is strange to say, but is there any of you who never had a nightmare? Well, I have my own past that I am trying to settle, that is why I have such nightmares. When I calm down, that means I won against my nightmare. Don’t forget. As a cultivator, the strongest enemy is not your opponent. It is yourself. If any of you want to go to the mid realm you have to make sure that your state of mind is perfect. I prefer to fight myself now, then to have these problems come back in later stages. Until then I will have a clear mind.”
Everyone understood her words. Since they are still low level, you can fight your fears and past right away, don’t leave for later or it will disturb you at certain moments.
With relief in heart, Kendra turned around and her eyes became a tiny bit purple.
