The cursed Beast

After Jean stopped reading he began to get ready and head out, once he left his house he closed his eyes.

Shortly after black and purple smoke started to leave his body as he began to form black strings around his body while purple electricity circled all over his body. The strings around his body slowly faded as if they were singed by the electricity.

It remained around his feet however, sort of resembling sneakers.

After that he opened his eyes and looked up at the night sky, which gave a beautiful blue glow to this city. He looked at the street ahead of him which had street lights lit up all across the sidewalk. It was peaceful and quiet like no one was outside except him.

"It would suck if someone were to disturb the peace here." Jean thought.

He started walking to wherever the Cursed Beast Power (C.B.P) Territory is. Although it usually would be on the outskirts of the city, there are exceptions. After walking in a random direction he ended up in the middle of the city which had a statue of a hero that saved them from the invasion of C.B.P 200 years ago.

"Doesn't sound familiar, who hell is he?" Jean thought he started walking away.

He continued to walk until he reached the border of the city. It was a 40 meter wall.

"That's gonna be a pain in the ass to climb and I doubt there's a door leading to the other side." Jean said as he lowered his body a bit..

Jean jumped as high as he could but was only to get halfway meter. That didn’t stop him however as he kicked his feet into the wall and started running up spikes that formed under the strings around feet. He reached the top quickly, and realized how thick the wall actually is.

Jean started walking to the other end of the wall and looked down, hoping to see where the C.B.S is but all he saw was clouds of dust all around the territory.

"Oh well." Jean said as he jumped off and the strings at his feet turned into boots so he won't feel the impact on his legs.

Once Jean hit the ground and more dust started to appear as he was surrounded by several Foxes although the electricity around him grew more intense, one of The Foxes immediately started attacking but Jean suddenly disappeared. Suddenly The Foxe’s companions were suddenly laying on the floor headless. Jean instantaneously reappeared behind the last Foxe with lightning emitting from his sword, The Foxe tried to turn around to defend himself but he suddenly sliced in half.

"That wasn’t really much of a warm up." Jean said as he looked at Foxes slowly disintegrate.

Jean's sword was completely black but morphed into a scythe as the strings around Jean's feet began to expand up to his knee. More strings formed around his face and expanded all over him until it met with the strings at his knee.

“My strings are odorless and can surprise my smell very well, so forming them around my body would come in handy so I won’t get surrounded again.” Jean thought before disappearing again with scythe.

He started looking for beasts to make his weapon stronger and after 2 hours of killing Cheete and Tigre beasts, Jean ran into an Elaphante, and he changed his scythe back into a sword. The strings started to disappear and his boots turned back into sneakers, making him lighter than before.

The Elaphante was standing just 12 feet away from him and had a fierce look on his face as if it just found it’s target.

The first to attack was the Elaphante with its trunk. It was fast and Jean was able to barely dodge the attack as blood started dripping from his arm.

"That would've crushed me in half." Jean said as started to smile a little

Jean started to rush towards the beast going for the feet whilst the Elaphante tried to stomp, although after realizing the risk. The beast quickly jumped.

"That’s unbelievable. I didn’t know they could do that." Jean said, surprised.

The Elaphante was now falling from the jump Jean jumped back farther away from Elaphante so he won't get caught by the impact. However the impact from the Elaphante landing caused the dust and rocks to fly around. There was also a large gust of wind that pushed all of the smoke away while sending Jean back as well.

Jean had to balance himself before he rushed towards the Elaphante, Jean's plan was to strike it while it was getting up but the Elaphante was swinging its trunk in a sweeping motion to keep him away. Jean tried moving around the Elaphante but by the time he did the Elaphante was already on its feet.

"Tch." Jean sucked his teeth as he was getting annoyed but at the same time he couldn't stop smiling.

The Elaphante started turning around at the same time swing his tail Jean was unable to get close to it since the tail was hard and fast quite similar to a whip. Jean took a step back and when the Elaphante showed his side, he pushed forward hoping to stab it’s weak part, Jean managed to land a blow with his sword and started to create long slash starting from the middle of the beast’s side to the bottom.

The Elaphante started shaking his body so Jean would get away from him, it was able to shake him before Jean backed away. Jean watch the Elaphante bleed out, than suddenly the Elaphante's eyes red and black and it's body started to grew larger.

The electricity around Jean’s body immediately got much more intense and the color was now a dark purple, and strings started to form around and it continued to expand up to his elbow which made him faster and stronger.

The Elaphante started to rush towards him but Jean wasn't there. Without a trace of which way he went, the Elaphante was left clueless. He unnoticeably reappeared with an attack on the beast’s neck, fortunately it was blocked by its trunk to guard against the attack. However Jean was able to cut the trunk off almost easily.

He immediately cuts all of the Elaphante's limbs off along with the tail and finally he cuts it in half and completely kills the beast.

"That’s enough for now, my body feels much better." Jean said as he started walking back to the city.
