The Invincible Full-Moon System
849 Chilling Twist
Inside the Silverstar Pack Castle, in the tranquil shadows of solemnity.
Rex is still sitting on his throne in silence, his gaze fixed forward with sharpness and resolution, filled with hidden thoughts that were sealed away inside his mind. It's been more than an hour since he stayed like this.
A couple of times, his expression scrunched with a frown.
Just earlier he has done something really stupid, he wasn't planning on sending help.
But the more he thought about it, the more he felt bad about himself for being swayed by his anger. Usually, he could keep a level head in any situation. However, looking at Giana's face earlier sparks some trauma inside of him.
His foster parents' deaths haunted him whenever he saw Giana's face.
It frustrated him to no end for not being able to think properly because of anger, and he was cursing himself inside his head, "If it' weren't for Evelyn, I would've been oblivious to the change that has presented itself like this. Seems like I still need to work more on my anger and hatred..."
"I promised Evelyn to keep my distance, but she's the only one I can send" he added.
Rex could only shake his head as he reaches out his hand to his trapezius muscle, two small clear-entry wounds can be seen there, almost as if someone bits him. It was the only way, the others are not ready, and he wouldn't want them to be put in danger.
Despite making them feel like being treated as children, Rex can't do it any other way.
But then a frown appeared on his face, Gelmar reported to him earlier that Evelyn was intending to go help Prof. K herself. Adhara decided to join too. However, it was Evelyn's idea to start.
Just thinking about this alone makes his blood boils, he gripped the throne handles strongly.
"I'm okay with her doing anything, but not this. I need to punish her" Rex mused.
Sighing to himself, he leans his head back and closes his eyes.
"Executor, huh... I'll make him feel like an ant in my world. I don't expect the plan to work smoothly, but I will always come on top. I'll make sure of it" Rex mused to himself before opening his eyes again, gazing at the entrance to the throne room. "It should be nearing the end by now..."
Realizing that there are thousands of people outside, he gets up from his throne.
Instead of going out to greet the refugees he had accepted, Rex strides to the hallway on the side before he stepped into a room. Delta was inside, and she was still eating the human corpses, victims of battles.
Noticing a presence, Delta gazes up and tilts her head in question.
Since eating the human corpses for more than a day now, Rex could see the improvement in Delta's physical stats. On top of that, he saw a notification from the System that made him quite happy for Delta.
<Delta is close to being eligible to reach further evolution>
<It's advised for the user to give Delta the enhancement to specify the path of evolution>
'Great, I'll do that after I dealt with the refugees' Rex thought in delight.
Rex is determined to make Delta stronger so he would've had a proper strong month. He had already learned his lesson after being severely injured for the second time. Even now, his body still bore the evidence of the brutal encounters with the Supernatural Elders, he was still injured.
"Come, Delta. I need you to do something with me, the others don't need to know" He said.
Upon hearing this Delta seemed to nod her head and went over to Rex.
Both of them course back through the hallway, heading to the throne room again to leave the castle. It was then, Delta growled lightly and nudge her head towards Rex, staggering to the side a couple of steps.
It was a light gesture, and Rex understands what she meant clearly.
Putting on a wry smile, he could only scratch the back of his head, "You missed me...?"
"Did I ignore you for too long? I'm sorry" he apologized.
Growl!
Delta growled once again, trying to be defiant which only made her cuter. But then she whined, and Rex's expression softened into a somewhat sad smile, "You miss Ryze too? Of course you, you're not a horse so naturally it's hard to forget people"
"Also, you do spend a lot of time with him back in the university" he added subtly.
Remembering that Ryze is still inside the human territory, Rex felt bitter. But as damned as his ex-friend is, he must be taking care of Ryze properly now. Despite the fact that he was a Dragonman, Edward is there.
So Rex was not worried, but it will be good to get him back here.
In a way, Rex is still responsible for him, he was the one who pulled Ryze to all of this.
Upon reaching back to the throne room again, Rex glanced at Delta and thought to himself while rubbing his chin, 'Hmmm... I think there needs to be more pressure, Delta alone will probably not enough'
Deciding on what to do, he called Flunra and Gistella's names subtly.
Like a pair of shadows, the two instantly appeared in the throne room and bowed in respect.
"You call for us, Lord Rex...?" Flunra asked.
Just before he answers Flunra's question, his eyes were drawn to Gistella who also has become way stronger than the last time he saw her. It was evident that her energy has experienced a drastic change thanks to devouring the human corpses.
Even her black heart was pulsating robustly, spreading power inside her body.
Rex nodded his head in acknowledgment before he eventually replied, "I believe the evacuation is going to finish any moment now. I need to greet the refugees that are definitely uncertain right now, and you are going to help me with something"
"Help...? Do you want us to organize them?" Flunra asked again in confusion.
If it's about greeting the refugees, then the two of them couldn't help much aside from keeping order as Rex speaks in front of them. But it seems, that's not what Rex wanted from them.
Smiling mysteriously, Rex then added, "No, I want you to do something else..."
Meanwhile, outside of the castle.
Queen Shanaela alongside her people, Adhara, and Evelyn are tending to the refugees that are already crowding the city square. Some of them were scared of the unfamiliar place, while others were mesmerized by the sight of the city.
Only the thought of living in such a great city makes their bodies tremble in excitement.
Compared to their home city, Dargena City is miles apart in terms of advancement and beauty. Many that were skeptical of going here instantly flushed those thoughts away, the place is breathtaking.
"Move closer to the City Hall, give space for others!"
"Please be at ease, you will be briefed about the situation shortly. Be patient"
While Evelyn and Queen Shanaela are organizing the refugees earnestly, Adhara didn't.
Adhara was spacing out a couple of times, the refugees that are asking her about some things were ignored by her because of that. It was obvious that Calidora's provocative words from earlier were stuck inside her mind stubbornly.
Many thoughts haunted her mind because of that, she was very disturbed.
'Why did he ask for her to help Prof. K...? Aren't we good enough?' Adhara thought, frowning.
Each of Calidora's words disturbed her to no end, she was drowning in doubts and questions. This kind of thing is supposed to be her job, she was the Female Alpha, yet Rex asked Calidora to go instead.
On the other hand, Evelyn also saw Adhara spacing out from the side.
Clearly, she has something in her mind, and she also knows that it was because of what Calidora said earlier. Despite wanting to comfort Adhara, she couldn't as she too was thinking the same thing.
Glancing to the castle, her expression softened, 'I've been here before that Vampire...'
'Although Adhara was by his side first, I'm at least here longer than that Vampire. But how come her words makes me feel she knows Rex more than me...? I feel like I don't know Rex at all' Evelyn thought in worry, she was stressing over this immensely.
It was her job as the Luna to understand Rex, she was meant for this.
But in a way, based on what Calidora said earlier, it was almost as if she was the better Luna.
This kind of progression is clearly not going where she wanted, she could feel that Calidora is pushing her to the side bit by bit, taking over her position as the Luna. Even then, Evelyn also remembered that Calidora said that she was jealous.
'Am I missing something? Why am I completely clueless...?' Evelyn thought again.
Just words alone could render the Female Alpha and the Luna in this state of worry and uncertainty, the two were stressing out while trying their best to keep the refugees organized despite their messy minds.
Not long after, the mayor emerged from the portal and stepped out.
Upon seeing this, Adhara and Evelyn take that as a sign that all of the people were teleported already. The mayor deliberately teleported the last in order to make sure that everyone is already evacuated.
Since he was now here, there shouldn't be any more people to be teleported.
"Mayor, how's the situation outside?" Evelyn asked.
Hearing his name being called, the mayor glanced to the side and realized that it was Evelyn. But he soon shakes his in response, "I was forced to run to the portal as soon as I was teleported by the Awakened. But it seems they are still fighting, I can tell that much"
"I'm going to help," Adhara said and intends to go inside the portal.
Evelyn quickly called her, "Calidora is out there, are you sure you want to help her?"
Adhara abruptly stopped in her tracks when she heard this. However, she steeled her resolve and intends to help until the people that are still outside are evacuated, "Yes, I don't think I can stay any longer and do nothing"
But as she said that, she suddenly caught a whiff of a familiar scent.
"F- Father...?" Adhara uttered in surprise, she could smell her father's scent is near.
Just as she was about to search for her father whom she misses very much amongst the crowd, her eyes as well as Evelyn's eyes shifted to the side and saw Gelmar running towards them in a hurry.
Stopping in front of Evelyn and Adahra, he then catches his breath for a moment.
"Forgive my intrusion, Lady Adhara, Lady Evelyn" He apologized with rigid breaths before he eventually straighten his back and reported, "But I was specifically told by Lord Rex to inform you to bring the refugees near the Silverstar Castle, the two of you. It seems he would make a speech there"
Evelyn and Adahra look at each other, but the two eventually comply.
It seems Rex knew that the two are going to do something reckless and asked Gelmar to come fetch them. Adhara and Evelyn don't have any other choice, the two nodded their heads and lead the refugees.
A moment later.
In an organized manner, the refugees were led to the foot of the hill.
Most of them were having questions as to what they were led to, but some of them are already guessing that they would meet the ruler of this beautiful city. If the mayor is correct, then the ruler should be Rex Silverstar.
None of them has a bad impression of him, Rex is their savior from the malice of war.
Just them willingly coming here is already a testament to the respect they had for Rex, they all believed that he was the good guy, regardless of what form he takes. But their thoughts halted when they saw a figure coming to view at the top of the hill.
Rex came walking in his Werewolf form, his bearing alone pressed the air down.
Such a sight spark different reactions from the people.
Despite already knowing that Rex is not that simple through rumors, this is beyond them.
The refugees were expecting a magnificent speech of Rex accepting them and taking care of them under his wings, guaranteeing their safety. But the words that came out of his mouth quickly tightened their hearts.
"Since you're all gathered here, let me say this first... Welcome to Dargena City"
"Most of you probably already know but just in case, my name is Rex Silverstar. It's a pleasure to meet you all. But I believe our time together will be short, it pained me to part so soon with all of you"
Upon hearing this, the people started to become confused about the situation.
But then out of nowhere, a disturbing grin crossed Rex's face as his eyes glowed red viciously, "Did you really think I'll forgive what you humans did to me...? You all didn't seriously think that this is your sanctuary, right? No..."
"All of you walked into Wolf's den willingly, and now it's time for a massacre!"
