The same beast he had met in the desert, the one that had a stronger aura than the rest and was veiled in black smoke. The one that the ability to kill him easily there but stopped to observe him.
The only beast he was scared of back in the desert.
"... It was you..."
Alan muttered, as he backed away, his expression contorted, and he tried his best to recollect himself. The sheer pressure it unleashed made it hard for him to even stand, the terrain below wasn't any help.
"Ugh..."
He coughed up a mouthful of blood as he stared at the beast, which had now finally revealed itself.
Escaping the black mist it used to hide in, Alan was finally able to see what exactly had caused his such trouble...and it was a humanoid type.
