Kendra on the other side had blast. The jokes they started telling from their own worlds and regions were interesting and funny. When the night came and calmness surrounded them. Kendra smiled at Isaa and Olek that was still sitting with them. Everyone else felt tired and went to rest.
With sparks in her eyes and big eerie she stared ta them and winked. ""Are you tired?""
Isaa knew that smile. Usually, people get punished when she smiles like that, but Olek didn"t know. ""New game?""
Isaa shook her head. ""That can"t be considered as a game. Kendra is about to take care of a few rats that are trying to enter our village already for days. Did you see that smile?""
Of course, he did so he just gave a slight nod. Isaa continued explaining. ""From now on you will realize that not every Kendras smile is really a smile. This huge big smile means, something is cooking in that head of hers and it won"t be good for those people. I wonder...""
As he turned his head towards Kendra he realized for the first time that her eyes could look icy and her smile even if bright so cold and distant. His back felt like something cold pa.s.sed it and his hair stood up. This was the first time he felt scared of this child since he met her.
But that didn"t stop him to accept that fact immediately. ""If they deserve punishment I will join in. Who is it? Don"t tell me those stupid people can"t let it go?""
Kendra and Isaa nodded. ""Just like you thought. It"s them and they really have a problem with their heads.""
The cloud rose over the top of the village and then disappeared with them on it. Olek didn"t know the change and didn"t think too much about it. They chose not to talk until they come back.
As they floated over the boundary they could see strange procession walking towards their village. Hundreds of men and women walked towards the boundary in strange determination.
Isaa and Kendra sat down and stared at what they planned while Olek just shook realizing how calm these two are. They are not even moved by so many people coming over. How can they be so confident?
Kendra motion at the small group of people that were commenting on something.
They flew closer and could hear then cleanly what was spoken. ""We need to find a gap in their s.h.i.+eld. Every s.h.i.+eld has a gap to pa.s.s, a door. We have no idea how big their boundary is so it is good that everyone came to help.""
Illo"s expression was quite dark. ""Now or days we tried to find a gap, or split, anything, but we couldn"t. If we don"t find a way to enter their village and find that formation master among them, we will have no way attacking the town.""
Olek"s expression became indifferent. Oh, this is the reason they came? The city that we build with so much care to fall in your hands, you wis.h.!.+ He tapped Kendra"s head and nodded with a creepy smile at Kendra.
She stretched a bit and then stood up. With a huge smile, she stared at them and as cold flicker pa.s.sed her eyes sounds of buzzing could be heard.
At first, it was still too low, but as it came closer the people panicked. The mosquitos in these lands are like everything else. Large. Actually, the mosquitoes usually avoided this part of the forest as the boundary gave them a strange feeling of death.
Kendra used some of the magic to attract them and as they came closer they became hungrier as they could feel hundreds of people"s blood. The worst thing si Illo"s people do not wash often so the scent was multiple times even stronger.
As the sound of those insects became closer the people started panicking and running away.
Isaa sent few b.a.l.l.s to the fires and they were extinguished with the hiss while the group of cultivators from Illo"s group started to shoot wildly everywhere.
Just by chance, they were missed a few times by unintentional attack. Luckily she made s.h.i.+eld around them so flaming red fireb.a.l.l.s just slightly changed their trajectory so they were not hit by it.
But their actions made those flying insects just more aggressive. They avoided the fireb.a.l.l.s and attacked those that tried to run away. The screams, curses and all kinds of other words flew around them making even Kendra learn new words.
Olek saw the cultivators coming together and with unified power attacking the insects. One by one, the insects died and rest scattered and flew away.
The group of few dozen of cultivators gathered together around Illo. ""This was strange. Is that some kind of formation?""
Illo shook his head. ""That was no illusion. Formations are based on open s.p.a.ce illusion. What we killed was real and has nothing to do with the village. Never mind. Let us continue searching again tomorrow.""
But few people started complaining. ""We didn"t sleep or eat properly for days. Let forest first lose their leaves. Maybe then it will be easier to approach the s.h.i.+eld.""
Kendra smiled. The idea was good but their s.h.i.+eld had no cracks but they gave her a good idea. Formation with a bunch of insects and ferocious animals., but then gave up.
There was no need for that. Maybe it will be even more fun seeing their empty tries to enter their place without being really able to do it. The cloud rose higher and flew back to their village.
As they jumped off the cloud, the rabbit jumped on it and went to sleep. Kendra sighed. ""Tomorrow I will start making rabbits cloud. Then it can have it as much it wants.""
Olek smiled at the direction where they left the stupid group of people and pointed that way. ""Kendra, about them...""
""Don"t you smell it... the rain?"" Kendra pointed at a few clouds that started appearing over the night sky. ""The fall this year will be rainy and winter will be cold and snowy. let"s have fun. If they like being frozen, they are welcome to do so.""
Olek found it hilarious and started chuckling but pressed his hand over his mouth. In the evening it was a rule to try to be as quiet as possible. With tears in his eyes he said goodbye to them with a wave of a hand and the village became again quiet.
Only saint animal Siu stood near the forest and sighed. ""Stupid...""
