The supposed royal guard came up to us, wary of the staff in my hands and the silver spear held by Erica.

"Adventurers, have you seen the hero?"

I glanced at Jessica and Charles, making sure they remembered what I had told what would happen if they told anyone that the hero is dead. I walked up to the royal guard, a wicked smile growing on my face.

"I know what happened to the hero."

"You know of the hero? Speak peasant!"

"HE'S DEAD."

"[TAIL STRIKE]"

My tail pierced straight through his chest, instantly killing him.

"IT'S A MONSTER!"

I ripped the amulet off, turning back into a thorn fox. My clothes seemed to have disappeared.

"THIS IS GOING TO BE A GOOD MEAL."

I charged forward, Erica as well, she swiped her spear, cutting out their eyes, I struck my tail in their heads, using them to push forward into the next person.

"DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

I jumped backwards, propping my two tails up.

"[FOX THORN]"

It wasn't even a real fight, they were destroyed with my fox thorn, wiping out every single one of them.

FEED... DEVOUR THEM REATH... DEVOUR THEM!

TITLE ACQUIRED [MAD MAN]

I leaped onto one of the corpses and started tearing into the flesh, swallowing the meat and drinking the blood. After a few minutes, I had eaten every single one of them. I looked up, regaining control over myself. Erica was staring at me with a look of horror. I walked over to water and looked at myself. My mouth was covered in blood, my eyes looked like that of a demon, I looked like a demon that just crawled up from the depths of hell.

I'm starting to see why no one evolved into an adult thorn fox. Day by day I'm starting to become more of a beast. Not only that, but I've changed. The years I spent in hell broke me. I'm no longer John Pondsley. He... John Pondsley is gone forever, and all that's left, is me, a broken piece of John Pondsley.

I dipped my face in the water, washing the blood off my face.

"All of them were pretty good choices, but bone fox is out of question, I don't want to have decayed flesh. And considering the fact I have the title "friend of the devil", it wouldn't be a good idea to evolve into a holy fox. I choose metal fox."

Suddenly the grass started pointing towards me, the water started floating a bit, dirt, gravel and water swirled around me, tiny sparks of electricity shooting out from my body, then smoke started to surround me, and then it all dispersed with a loud "SHICK" sound.

I walked over to the water and looked at my reflection. I was now twice as large as I was before, taller than Erica. My fur was now pure silver colored.

"Let's try this new skill."
