In the novel [Endless Love] there would be a rare occurrence in the duke's estate that will make the duke come here flying. And that occurrence is the appearance of a legendary beast.

The legendary beast was a beast that was so rare to see and find that if you are extremely lucky you could get a glimpse of it once in your lifetime. And that's not all, legendary beasts are extremely smart and wise that you could get enlightened by just a few of its words. Their smart and witty nature was also the reason why they were able to live long and become powerful. They are also extremely loved by nature and mana aside from dragons and could cast powerful spells in an extremely short amount of time. That is how scary they are.

And a young corpse of that beast is found near the garden of the duke's estate. Because of this, the kingdom has gone wild and immediately took the corpse and researched it. After that, they put the bones in the treasury as the nation's most beloved treasure.

It is also because of this that the other kingdoms became tempted to conquer Reece's kingdom and steal the treasure. That is also one of the reasons why the evil archmage, Ash, opened the portal to the demon world in the Reece kingdom so he could steal the bones and transform them into a monster later on and that monster will play a big role to destroy the kingdoms in the continent.

'And I don't want that to happen... I'm gonna save it, use it to my advantage, and prevent the worsening of the destruction of the kingdom, two birds in one stone.'

Jane finally arrived at the garden and began to search through the darkest corners of the garden. The garden is so big that it could fit ten houses in it so there are some struggles on searching the beast.

'According to the novel, the gardener found the corpse of the beast early in the morning where it just currently died. It means it is still alive around midnight or so.'

Jane tightly clenched on the healing potion that she just bought early in the morning. It is a high-grade potion that made all her current salary go down the drain. Although it is annoying, if she could get a strong ally just by spending some money then it is worth it

Rustle

She stopped when she heard the sound of leaves moving. In this dark and eerie night, a sound like that might be fitting for horror scenarios and make people wandering alone shit on their pants but not for Jane.

It's here, it's really in here.

Jane stopped herself from smiling and approached the place where the sound came from. She moved the bushes and leaves in her way. She continued doing that for minutes while feeling a bit nervous. And finally, she saw it, the legendary beast.

It was a black furball with short arms and legs, a long black tail, and a face of a baby tiger. It was currently on the ground covered in wounds and scratches and its body reeks of blood.

Jane slowly approached the black beast and slowly tried to put her hands on its body. But she stopped because the black beast's eyes suddenly opened. She retreated her hand and looked at the beast looking at her weakly but fiercely.

'Even though it's on the verge of death it still has his pride huh?'

Jane sighed and put her hands in the air as if signing defeat and look at the black beast.

"Look, I could help you. I got a healing potion here, drink and you'll recover some of your injuries. I won't hurt you so trust me."

The black beast stared at her weakly with a frown and made a weak growl. Jane sighed and picked up the black beast's body. The black beast was surprised but was too weak to resist. In the end, it just gave up and starts to breathe heavily as if he's running out of air.
