Reve had reached a conclusion as soon as he saw his skin regenerate back.
With his mind prepared, Reve dashed into the miasma. His speed resembled pure lightning as all that was visible was a bluish-green streak that rushed through the miasma.
'Oh damnation, the pain!!!' mentally screamed Reve.
He could feel each layer of his skin consecutively being peeled off. The miasma brushed on the part of his face that wasn't protected by the mask.
It was killing him. The only thing that kept him moving was willpower.
Yet, even for someone like him, it was beginning to prove futile.
His speed kept decreasing and he was losing momentum. What existed in his mind wasn't pain.
Instead, it was the bright light that kept showing in front of the massive gathering of green gas. That was the only thing he could think of.
He guessed, 'It is hope.'
It should be hope. Hope that the green mass had a certain boundary and beyond the boundary was a normal mountain region not infested by it.
'I need to get faster or my healing factor won't be able to protect me for long,' inwardly screamed Reve.
As he ran, he shouted loudly like a mad man. His demihuman ears came out of his side. His tail flung about. His fur reappeared back on his skin. Conclusively, a pair of antler protruded from the upper parts of his head.
He was channeling his primate form, [Tres].
This unleashing provided him with the right amount of power to increase his speed. He stopped running like a human and put his four limbs to good use.
His cat-like eyes, protected by the mask, observed the boundary in sight. He estimated the distance to be about one kilometer.
*Whoosh!*
Now it was 900 meters...it reduced to 800…..to 500...to 50….He was getting closer.
5….4….3…2…1.
Reve shot out of the green miasma and reached normal green land.
He rolled onto the dirt until he struck his claws into the earth, forcefully stopping his movement.
"Ahhh!!!"
It was not his current action that made him scream.
No, it was the pains becoming evident as the clothes on him soon turned to dust and his skin, long far gone.
The only thing on it was the inner redness of his body that shouldn't be shown to other living beings. In a way, it was sort of his private self.
Reve squeezed his face as his healing factor began working its magic. Perhaps, that's what made the entire ordeal terrible to bear.
Each time a fiber in his body was being elongated, it would release a stinging sensation that did feel more than stinging to Reve. It felt as if a thin pin was continuously stabbed into his eye.
'Damn, what a sad life? Ahhhh!'
Not being able to contain the pain anymore, Reve released a piercing scream out into the world. It scared off all animals in the vicinity.
From nowhere, someone shouted at him, "Stop where you are!"
Staying in a curled up position, Reve couldn't see the person, but his eyes reddened as soon as he heard the sound. His tail wagged, sending forth a force barrier that slammed the person instantly.
Reve quickly appeared in the face of the man dressed in light armor. All notions of intelligence in Reve's eyes were suppressed as he gnarled.
"Oh, for fucking sake, what is this monstrosity?" screamed the man.
He tried freeing himself from the grasp of the red monster but its claw dug deep into his body. This would render him unable to move, even if he was free.
The monster opened its mouth and shot a force blast directly at his face. The last thing the man saw was the wicked fangs of the monster as it roared once again!
*Phew!*
......…..
The man was dead, leaving the monster without prey.
Yet, the monster couldn't care. It widened its mouth to attempt a bite at the dead man's face, but before its fangs could crush its head into what he considered to be wild sweetness, the monster paused in its footsteps.
Reve woke up!
'What the hell is this? What happened?'
He spat out the disgusting head that was forced into his mouth. Luckily, it wasn't crushed yet or he would be reeling in absolute disgust.
The last thing Reve remembered were the words of surprise from the man who he assumed to be a mountain guard. The next thing after that was the man's head in his mouth.
Was such a thing possible?
Looking at the scene around him painted in red, he could see traces of savagery. Something or someone chopped the dead man's hand libs away from his body. Chunks of flesh splattered on the ground.
Once again, he wondered what happened and how he played into it.
'Someone is coming!'
Reve sensed movements ahead of him.
He couldn't afford to ponder on the mysteries of his present environment.
By now, his body had healed, so he hid behind a tree, but before he did that, a glimmer coursed through his eye and he threw all the remains of the dead man into the miasma. Just like he expected, the green gas quickly disposed of any material evidence.
The only thing left was the bloodstains on the ground. Reve broke his code and used his magi to grow plants around the stained spot. It did well to hide the stains while also releasing a natural scent that covered the smell of blood in the area.
"Whoever you are, show yoursel!" shouted a voice in front.
Reve panicked, 'Damn, I'm late.'
He couldn't exactly show his demihuman form to the mountain guards. Reve took a few seconds morphing behind the tree. Bringing out a new set of clothes, he put them on hastily.
"I shan't ask again. Show yourself or we will attack," warned the mountain guard.
Judging by the incoming footsteps, Reve garnered that the group of mountain guards had already assembled. The energy radiating from the was brimming, a foreboding sign that an attack was about to occur.
Reve jumped away from the tree with his hands up in the air, "Easy. Easy. Easy. I come in peace.. Your swords won't be needed."
