Jin Wei She tightened her grip on her sword, her eyes sharp and focused as she faced the towering beast.
Though the pressure of its aura weighed down on her, threatening to crush her into the ground, she refused to yield.
"It is not as tough as it looks..."
*crash* One of the heron's heads lunged forward, aiming to bite her in half, but Jin Wei twisted mid-air, narrowly avoiding its jagged beak.
*flick* Her sword flashed in the sunlight as she slashed at its flank, blood bursting out of its body.
"GRAARGHH!!!" The beast screeched in pain, its other two heads twisting to face her, purple flames spewing from their mouths.
*woosh* Jin Wei raised her sword and spun, conjuring a whirlwind to shield herself.
*thoom* The flames crashed into the swirling wind, dissipating into harmless embers, but the force of the heron's attack sent her skidding back, her feet digging into the ground to regain balance.
