Bad Breath

Getting down from his Bike, John took off his helmet and made sure to lock it on the Bike before anxiously looking around his surroundings.

*Gulp*

John swallowed out of nervousness as he looked ahead at the dark road with only a single light post on the entrance of cemetery while the of the road is swallowed by the darkness.

John is currently standing on a pave road going up the mountains, the Old Bakara Cemetery is located at the middle of mountain's mountainside. The reason why John is scared coming here is because he's been hearing a lot of stories about this place being super haunted where one story says that if drizzles at night and if you happen to cross this part of the road where the entrance of the cemetery is located, motorist have said that they would see a woman dress in white that would wave at them wanting to ride on either your bike or car and if you ignore her then it would follow you and haunt you.

"Alright, you can do this John" John lightly slapped his cheeks trying to shake his nervousness or maybe..fear.

"Dammit, I really don't know if I'm actually lucky now, I hope everything will be fine" John said as he took the Bokken from his back and opened his flashlight.

"Hey, all is gonna be fine, this mission is easy you know and don't forget to drink the potion you bought earlier so you will be able to see the Evil Spirit" Faere said as she suddenly appeared on his right shoulder.

"Y-es, I almost forgot about it" John remembered and took off his backpack and rummage inside and took out a green colored potion and chugged it down.

It's called Spirit Potion, using it would raise someone's sensitivity for two hour towards the surrounding energies specially dark auras even the smallest dark aura would be sense by the user and this potion cost John $50 from the Marketplace of the app.

"Ughh, it taste bitter and my eyes are starting to itch" John made a face like someone that ate a bitter fruit while constantly rubbing his eyes.

A few moments later.

"How is it?" Faere asked him with a smiling face.

"I feel weird and what is that black smoke?" John said and suddenly pointed using his Bokken at something like a huge smoke in the distance that towers over most trees.

"That's a dark aura, it means we're near to the Evil Spirit" Faere said as she flew over John's shoulder.

"Al..right" John said with an uncertain tone before continuing forward.

Suddenly, the bushes in front of John is shaking.

"Haa" John hastily directed the flashlight towards the bushes watching it intently as he gripped the Bokki on his hand tightly, as he gulped down with sweat appearing on his forehead because of the sudden tension.

Meow ~ Kyaa! ~

Suddenly, a piercing scream that sounded like a woman echoed on the surroundings that even the birds was force to fly away because of it.

John started taking deep breaths with his back bent with his hands on his waist. John then raised his head and noticed the flying Faere who was in front of him, looking at him with disdainful eyes.

"Hooo...that was scary" John said while smiling as his eyes darted around.

"It's just a cat" Faere's face darkened as she said that.

John just gave a dry laugh as he wipe the sweat on his forehead while fanning himself with his shirt with his other hand before continuing to go forward, it was at least more or less a 300 meter distance from the entrance.

As John started getting closer to the the Dark Aura in the distance, tombstone started appearing the closer he gets as John looked around anxiously, afraid that something would jump at him while he's not paying attention then he stopped.

John looked around with his flashlight while his Bokken is ready to strike if someone or something charges at him and seeing that nothing's coming and that the only sounds he can hear are cricket and occasional owl sounds, he continued walking towards the direction where the Dark Aura is.

"Uhmm.. Is it just me or that Dark Aura is coming towards me?" John stopped and asked Faere with a puzzled face.

"I'm just an observer now" Faere said with a blank tone.

"Tsk!" John clicked his tongue as he readied himself to face his greatest enemy in his life, a ghost.

John might look tough right now with a stern face but if viewed from a spectator's perspective they would notice that his legs are shaking out of fear or maybe he just wants to pee so bad.

"Oh shit, It's here" John said with a shaking voice as he saw a figure slowly walking out from the shadows of the trees heading towards his direction. It was a lady dress in white that look like a wedding dress with a disfigured face with several scars covering her face and her long hair dance around her like the snakes on the head of Medusa.

"Here I was shaking in fear expecting something scary like a dude covered in some kind of stitches on his face" John suddenly said with lazy posture with a disappointed look.

John started inspecting her from his position with a hand on his chin like he was contemplating something.

Suddenly the lady opened her mouth and John's eyes almost bulged out when he saw the rows of sharp teeth in her mouth.

Kyaaaa! ~

The Evil Spirit suddenly released a piercing scream as she charged at him.

"Ohh! Ohh! Ohh Shit!" John started running on the opposite direction while looking back as he hurled curses at her.

"What are you doing!?" John heard Faere's voiced screaming beside his ear.

"Running" John said out of reflex as he looked back at the terrifying face of the Evil Spirit Lady that's slowly getting closer to him.

"Idiot, use your sword!" John was reminded that he was holding a weapon and he stopped and face the 'Lady' as he swung his sword at an appropriate distance with one of his eyes closed.

Unexpectedly, the sword landed on her mouth and John noticed that her hair dropped down from mid-air but suddenly the 'Lady' started exerting a lot of strength that forced John to use both hands holding both ends of the wooden sword.

But in the end, John is still losing out in strength and the face of the 'Lady' is slowly nearing his face, after all this 'Lady' is still an Evil Spirit.

"Uh-uhmm, I know you w-were b-beautiful when you were still alive b-but can you not point your breath in front of my face because it s-seriously stinks so bad" John' face scrunched up when he smelled her breath like a mixed of both rotten meat and sewer smell.

But what weird is that the Evil Spirit seems to understand what he was saying and breathed more towards his face.

John felt like puking and glared at her but then suddenly noticed her eyes that was laughing, instead of getting scared, he started getting annoyed instead because he felt like he was being made fun of.

"Seriously Lady, s-stop d-doing that cause it really smells so bad, I feel like I'm gonna die from it" John really had a hard time saying that because it really smelled so bad that he felt like he's gonna die on how tormenting her breath is.

Both of them wrestled in strength between the wooden sword, even though John's face are already turning red from exerting a lot of force, he still didn't give up afraid that something would happen to him if he lose on this.

"Stop-" John was about to say something when he was interrupted with her bad breath again and this time his eyebrows twitch in anger.

"Lady! Ahhhh!"

John howled that sounded like a war cry and punched her face in anger, sending the Evil Spirit stumbling backwards after that like an awakened berserk beast, he gripped his Bokken with both hands and started swinging heavily on her head that he even managed to force her on the ground as her face kept being pounded by John's sword while the Evil Spirit tried to escape from him but to no avail.

"Die! Die! Die! I told you stop! Your breath smells so bad but you kept doing it front of my face! You are a Lady, don't you know how to f*cking brush your f*cking smelly teeth or breath or whatever!? Ahh! I'm gonna kill you b*tch!" John hurled a bunch of curses at the Evil Spirit Lady as he repeatedly swung his Bokken at her.

But what John didn't notice is that Faere is looking at him with mouth agape in shock but not because of what she's currently seeing as John pounded the Evil Spirit.

'How? How did he managed to physically attacked her using just his hands!? Even Master Rank Exorcist is not able to do that and only a few Grand Master is able to do it mostly because of the unique cultivation technique they are using! Wait..could it be!?" Faere shockingly thought of something and then looked at John but all she saw is how stupid his face is, her face darkened as she sighed and just shook her head trying to dispel that absurd thought on her mind.
