The Invincible Full-Moon System

Chapter 115: Faraday University’s Offer

Ochyra University came out as the victor of the tournament, the lecturers and the other representatives decided they will celebrate their victory. 

After the tournament ended, Rex’s name becomes even more popular.

Because the tournament was broadcasted through various tv channels, Rex becomes the icon of Ochyra University.

The night came right after the tournament ended,

Rex is currently on his way to the clinic to check on Adhara and Rosie, they both got defeated and injured badly.

While walking, Rex is talking with the system, ‘System, how do I turn Adhara into a full-fledged Werewolf?’

<The user needs to create a unique mark for the Silverstar pack. Then, the user needs to mark Adhara with this unique mark before the user give a sufficient amount of blood to the unique mark>

Reading this, Rex asks, ‘Why do the unique mark do?’

<Unique Mark will be the symbol of your pack, and also a catalyst to turn Adhara into a Werewolf>

‘Catalyst? Does that mean It will take time to turn her into one?’

<Yes, 7 nights needed to turn Adhara into one or 1 Full-Moon night>

After talking to the system about Adhara, Rex finally got into the clinic without even realizing it.

He opens the clinic door,

This particular clinic is reserved for Ochyra University only, there are many beds to anticipate Ochyra University’s loss.

‘How nice of them, reserving one clinic for us specifically’, Rex thought sarcastically.

Faraday expects their students will win over Ochyra’s students but thanks to Rex, they manage to clutch the tournament and taking the win for themself.

The clinic is a hall that is filled with metallic colors, there are a couple of rooms for heavily injured patients.

Rex glance around the room and found a nurse writing on a paper at the end of the hall, he approaches her and asks, “Hello, Can I know which is Adhara Alpenore’s room?”

Hearing this, the nurse lifts her head up to see Rex.

She paused for a while before she clears her throat, “It’s room number 3, she’s already awake”, the nurse pointed at a door with a green light on top of it.

After knowing Adhara’s room, Rex thanked the nurse and enters it.

Creak…

Rex opened the room and saw Adahra already sitting on the bed, she’s in a daze but when she saw Rex her eyes lit up.

“REX!!”, she shouted before she jumped out of bed.

She runs towards Rex before she hugs him tightly, she hugs Rex tightly as if she’s afraid of losing him.

Rex was surprised, he then holds Adhara’s back, “Hey, what’s wrong?”

Sob…

Feeling that Adahra started to cry, Rex is even more surprised, ‘Did Edward hit her too hard? I’m sure Edward held back that punch’, Rex thought.

“I…I thought you’ll abandon me”, she said while sobbing.

Hearing this, Rex smile wryly.

He looks at Adhara’s teary eyes and said, “What are you saying? When did I say that?”

Rex becomes confused, 

He never said anything about leaving her, heck he even told Adhara that he needs more members for the Silverstar pack.

If Rex decided to abandon her, then why would he say that.

“Edward told me that you send him to test me that night, I thought you will abandon me because I’m not that strong”, She said while looking at Rex with her innocent eyes.

Rex chuckles because of this, “I ask Edward to follow you, he tested you as a prank”

Hearing this, Adhara was at a loss for words.

She got stressed because of what Edward said and now Rex said that it was a prank, which makes her annoyed at Edward.

“Wait, Edward followed me?!”, Adhara shouted in shock.

Rex glance at Adhara before he sits on a chair, “Do you have something to tell me? Or you want me to say it first?”

Adhara puts her head down, if Edward followed her then Rex definitely knows.

She bit her lips before Rex continues, “You told me no more secret, so why did you sneak behind me, and the worst part is Edward knows about it”

“I’m just afraid that you’ll be disgusted by me, so I thought I’ll do it when you’re not looking”, she said.

Adhara looks at Rex with a troubled expression.

Seeing this, Rex gets up and said, “Don’t worry, Edward thought nothing of it. And I’ll turn you tomorrow night, rest here until tomorrow okay?”

After saying that, Rex left Adhara’s room.

He then glances at the number 2 door on his right with a green light on top of it, ‘That room must be for Rosie’, Rex thought.

Rex wanted to visit Rosie but his hand stopped after he holds the door’s handle.

‘My deal with Rosie is done. Although her parents might think we’re still dating, in reality, it’s just a deal’, Rex thought.

He then left the clinic without even visiting Rosie.

Just after Rex went out of the clinic, he’s greeted by a man with Faraday University emblem on his chest.

Rex glance at the man and walk past him but then,

“Rex Silverstar”, the man called out to him.

Hearing his name called, Rex turns to his back with a questioning look.

The man approach Rex and said, “I’m tasked to escort you to the principal’s office, can you please kindly follow me?”

‘The principal’s office?’, Rex thought. 

He then nodded his head before following the man.

Arriving at the principal’s office,

Rex is immediately greeted with a spacious place that is filled with wooden interior, it has an old vibe in its design.

It is a contrasting design from the rest of Faraday University,

The Faraday University looks futuristic that is way more developed than Ochyra University, but the principal’s room looks traditional even compared to Ochyra University’s medieval style.

Rex is told to wait for the principal here in a minute, he sits on the sofa while looking around.

‘Why does it felt refreshing here? The smell of this place is nice’, Rex thought.

He doesn’t know why but the moment he enters the room, a scent penetrates his nose that makes his mind refreshed and clearer.

It is relaxing especially after the tournament.

Rex glance to his right and saw a wooden staff that is displayed on the wall, it looks ordinary but Rex can feel the faint mana emitted by it.

There is another door inside the Principal’s office, ‘That must be the principal’s room’, Rex thought.

Spellbooks, books, and trophies can also be seen around the room.

Just as he looks to his surrounding, the principal’s room door open revealing a man in his sixties with a cane in his hand.

His white hair is slick back, and although he holds a can he’s still walking normally without the need of it.

Seeing the principal, Rex stands up in respect.

Although he’s strong, he’s not prideful enough to disrespect the principal; of Faraday University.

He learned his lesson with Ochyra University’s principal, with just a stare from his cold eyes can make Rex suppressed heavily.

“Sit down young lad, there’s no need to be so stiff”, the principal said with a friendly smile.

The principal is not alone, he’s followed by the tournament jury from before.

When Rex saw this jury, his eyes turned cold.

He knows that this Jury is the one who coordinates the cheating before, and Rex didn’t like him one bit.

The principal sits down on the sofa in front of Rex while the jury stands by his side.

“Rex Silverstar, the Hero of Dwight City and the number one of Ochyra University”, the principal said with marveling eyes.

Hearing this, Rex smile wryly.

The principal tugged the jury’s side and said, “What do you want to drink?”

“Water is fine thank you”, Rex replied.

The jury from before then put two glasses of water on the table politely, he looks unwilling to serve Rex but the principal is staring at him.

“I looked through your military file, one of the best close-quarter fighter, broke one military law, join the special reconnaissance unit, and is still a private even with years of service”, the principal said while rubbing his chin.

Hearing this, Rex didn’t get surprised by this.

With the authority of a principal of a university, these kinds of files are easily accessible for such high-caliber people.

“I’m guessing that’s because of your age, and the punishment?”, the principal said.

Rex nodded his head, the principal read him like an open book.

The reason Rex is still stuck at Private is that Rex broke military law and also he’s too young to raise in the military rank, but he didn’t rank up mainly because of the military law.

“I heard that your friend Edward is here, how’s that for you?”, the principal asks.

Rex nodded his head, “I’m surprised to see him here too, It was a great surprise”

“I’m sorry, but why do you invite me here?”, Rex asks politely, but deep down he already knows what this meeting is about.

The principal glance at Rex and said, “Forgive my manner, let’s cut to the chase”

“I want you to transfer to Faraday University, we acknowledge your power and wondering if you want to join our university”

Hearing this, the jury beside the principal widened his eyes in surprise, “Sir Principal, that’s not possible because the recruitment for this semester has already ended”

Without even seeing the jury, the principal replied, “Who are you talking to? I make the rules not you”

The jury immediately shuts his mouth after getting a cold glare from the principal.

Rex didn’t mind the jury as he’s in thought, ‘The training ground here is great, the place is even better because Ochyra is too crowded, and there’s also Edward’

From a couple of days living here, Rex felt Faraday is a better option than Ochyra.

Rex is seriously considering transferring to Faraday but he still held his stoic expression, “It’s an appealing offer, but…”, he glanced at the jury with his cold eyes.

Seeing this, the principal smiles.

He stands up from his seat before he taps the jury on the shoulder, 

BAM!!

The jury suddenly slammed to the ground, “Argh!!”

Just from a tap from the principal, the jury who is a peak rank five got pinned down on the ground without any resistance.

Looking at this, Rex widened his eyes slightly.

The jury got splat to the ground as if there’s an invisible pressure holding him down.

‘So that’s why he brought the jury here, it seems he knows and already expects that I will bring that up’, Rex thought.

“Principal! What did I do?!”, the jury shouted helplessly.

He said that with difficulty before the principal squatted, “You’re still asking? a middle-aged talentless like you dare to provoke a talented future of human-kind by cheating in the arena?”

The jury’s eyes bulged, he didn’t expect the principal would notice.

Seeing the jury’s shocked expression, the principal smiles coldly, “Do you think I wouldn’t know?”

“Sir, I think it’s…”, Rex tries to intervene but the principal cuts him, “Of course you will not be satisfied with this”

The principal stands back up, 

He looks at the jury with cold eyes before a red barrier suddenly envelopes the jury’s body.

Seeing this, the jury struggles hardly, “Sir Principal please! Forgive me! I will not do it again! I will even resign from the university”, he said desperately.

He looks at the barrier in horror, it seems that he knows what the red barrier is.

Seeing this, Rex is also horrified.

He can feel the unbelievable amount of mana that gathers on the barrier, it makes his body jolted slightly because of it.

Rex also can feel that he can’t feel the lightning mana anymore as if the space around him got locked making him unable to use mana.

The principal smiles at the jury before he taps his cane to the wooden floor,

Thud!

Immediately after that,

SPLAT!

The jury’s body suddenly exploded staining the red barrier by his insides, if seen by untrained eyes then they might vomit from the scene.

Rex’s eyes widened in shock, 

Out of all the things that would happen to the jury, he didn’t expect the principal to kill the jury without even batting an eye.

“Ah, that’s refreshing. I always wanted to do that”, the principal said while sitting back down.

Rex straightens his back in horror, he got even more nervous by sitting in front of such a high-ranking Awakened.

By looking at a glimpse of the principal’s power,

Rex knows that if the principal wanted to he will die without even knowing how he dies.

‘This man is scary’, Rex thought.

Then the principal said, “Don’t worry, I will not force you. Just think about my offer as it will always stand open for you”

Hearing this, Rex immediately nods his head.

“If you decide to transfer here, we will give you three high lightning stones per month, a tutor from our best Lightning Elementalist, and also $2,000,000 each month”, the principal said.

This offer makes Rex shocked, it is out of his expectations.

Seeing Rex’s surprised expression, the principal added, “You might ask why Ochyra University didn’t give you any benefits, well that’s because they’re new”

“They didn’t get the yearly supply from Ratmawati City because they’re new. Ratmawati city will give supplies after Ochyra University got ranked at the end of the year, the yearly achievement of a university will be ranked by the UWO to determine each of the university’s supply”

‘So that’s why’, Rex thought.

Even after becoming the strongest first-year, Rex only gets a VIP train that he just knew.

There’s no kind of benefits he gets from the Ochyra University as the number one student, and even if Ochyra University got their supplies, it will be divided by the immense numbers of Ochyra University students.

This will make the benefit for the number one student thinner.

“I’ll think about it, thank you for your offer”, Rex said politely, he’s seriously thinking about transferring here.

Just after Rex said that,

“It’s about time we end this meeting”, the principal said while he glances towards the door where Rex enters before.

Seeing this, Rex is confused but then he suddenly heard some shouting in front of the door.

They both then bid their goodbyes, “I hope you will accept my offer”

“Thank you again, I’ll consider it and will notify you as soon as possible”, Rex said before he bowed respectfully.

Just after leaving the principal’s office,

“Let me in! I have the right to know why my student is here!”

“You can’t, please don’t make it difficult for us”

“Get out of the way!”, Hera shouted as her body burns with fire, she wanted to forcefully get in but then she saw Rex coming out.

“Rex!”, Hera called while running to him.

The guards finally let Hera slip past them and went to Rex.

Hera held Rex’s hand as she asks, “What are you doing here? Why did the principal ask you to meet him?”

A barrage of questions got thrown at Rex, but he only replies with a mysterious smile.

“Nothing, let’s celebrate our victory!”, he said before walking past Hera.

From this alone, Hera knows that Rex is hiding something from her, ‘Did he already got scouted by Faraday Univesity?’
