The Beast

Thug! Thug!

In vast plane with noting in the sight, a horse was pulling a carriage attached to it. At the slow speed, it was pushing the ground with its all force.

Thump!

As if it couldn't pull anymore,  the horse fell on the ground and neighed.But nobody could hear its pitiful soul wrenching cry as it slowly lost it's miserable life.

Sup!

A voice was heard in the back of the carriage as a young man steadily opened his eyes, scanning the environment around him with his lifeless eyes.

"Where am I?" The young man put his right hand on the back of his head and saw people lying beside him.

"I joined the mercenary group after fighting with them,"

When he used his lower body power to stand, he felt stinging pain in his back and abdomen.

"Ahhh!"

He softly let out a muffled groan as he placed his right hand on his stomach.

"Someone ambushed us when we were preparing for departure to the guild,"

He searched around for water bottle as he struggled to recover his memory fragments.

"Then i remember being one controlling the saber but it was filled with some kind of super natural power"

He found a blue potion hanging on the back of Caterina.

"This world is not as simple as the medieval times, because that woman used some sort of power which couldn't be activated through any scientific means,"

He opened the cork of the potion bottle and drank.

Gulp!

Due to thirst, even weird taste of potion seemed good enough to drink.

"But where are we? It looks quite desolated place."

He used his essence to sense any danger but he felt as if there was no space-time around him existed.

Inside the carriage, it was warm and dark so for better look at his surroundings, he used his essence to drive the potion all around his body and moved towards door.

Creak!

The door opened and a desolate sight unfolded before him.

Swoosh!

The mercenaries inside the carriage shivered as the cold wind gushed into the carriage,Sen's wound twitched as bitter wind caressed his body.

He turned back and saw the shivering bodies of mercenaries as blood had already dyed them red, if Luther didn't take those potion, it was almost impossible for him to be alive.

Close!

With his left hand, Sen closed the door of carriage as he looked ahead in vast desolate plane.

Jump!

He jumped off from the carriage, and landed on the ground softly.

He took out another handkerchief he had in his pocket, which was also the lost one he had.

Swoop!

He channeled his essence in the handkerchief and tried to sense the direction of the handkerchief he threw on the carriage when it ambushed him.

But he found lot of smells around it, as a big dark spot appeared on the handy in his hand.

He rubbed his hand on the hanky and put it away as he ignored the smell spots.

"Which direction should i take?" He gazed in faraway distance.

He was deciding when he felt nauseous smell coming from right direction so he walked in right.

Caw! Caw!

On his way, he saw lot of crows flying in the sky making the environment creepy and dark.

His vision was not working and night time made it even more hard to see anything around him so he followed his sense of smell and continued walking.

After walking for some time, the smell became too strong and he knew that he  arrived at the source of that nauseous but kind of alluring scent.

Caw!Caw!

Lot of crows could be seen standing on a giant body of beast. The beast was dead, and it's body was emitting some kind of weird scent which attracted many scavengers.

Sen noticed this scene and he increasingly became attracted by corpse because of it's uniqueness as he had never seen this type of large beast.

The beast had some resemblance of a cat as it had fluffy long tail and cat ears on it's head but what separated it from ordinary cat was it's body which was humungous in size.

The pink colour substance was gushing out of it's nose,Sen took a step back and tried to sense any kind of strangeness but he found nothing lethal.

So, he walked towards beast.

Flap!

The crows flapped their wing and flew in the sky as they sensed something large approaching them.

But at this moment,

Brrr!

Something inside his blood trembled making his eyebrows twitch from surprise, and he felt his whole body burning as essence started devouring his own blood.

"Ahhhh!"

Sen felt his consciousness blurring due to rapid burning and devouring of his blood, But he forced himself to stay awake as anything could happen in the desolate wilderness.

Thump!

He fell on the ground as pain became more and more unbearable, his body twitched and some kind of weird part popped out of his body resembling to that of Forcipules or limbs of centipede.

After some time,

Sen's condition begin stabilising but his body turned pale due to blood loss, but he suddenly smelled the alluring scent of the beast lying before him.

Crawl!

His eighteen forcipules trembled as he started crawling on the ground, moving with terrifying speed towards the dead beast.

He started crawling on the top of the beast and his body felt strongest thirst of blood and flesh and urged him to devour the beast in one bite.

Bite!

Sen opened his mouth in which black liquid could be seen, and his incisors forcefully bit the liver it.

Munch!

With a vigorous bite,

He chomped on the meat and felt a surge of happiness throughout his body, relishing in the delight his tongue experienced.

His eyes becoming increasingly red as he chewed more and more, a little amount amount of pink liquid entered in his mouth.

Twinkle!

The pink liquid entered into his body and Sen felt his body basking in comfort, while seeing his wounds healing with rapid pace.

"What?"
