The Invincible Full-Moon System

Chapter 142: Proposition From The Principal

Rex teleported to his room in Ochyra University, his back is drenched with sweat as he can still feel the piercing eyes of the Carabidis Guardian.

Unknown to Rex, 

Just after he teleports, the sand beneath him turns solid before it stabs his spot.

If he’s just another second late, he will be pierced by many sand spike that materializes out of nowhere around his spot.

‘I can’t fight that thing, let alone killing three of them’, Rex thought.

He thought that the temple will have creatures in the realm of rank five, but his thoughts were proved dead wrong.

The creature that he saw is a rank six!

That is the strongest creature that he ever met aside from the werewolves in Zrolis City, he can’t possibly beat that creature with the power he currently has.

After calming his beating heart, Rex then went down to check on Edward.

Meanwhile, Adhara is currently still training.

In the last couple of days, Hera didn’t stop bothering her about talking to Rex to stay with them with the promise that they will try to give them benefits.

Adhara didn’t trust her words at all, she can see through her lies.

‘Why is the university so adamant about not giving any benefits to us? What’s their reason for being like this’, she thought in confusion.

It should be a natural thing for a university like this to give the top students something.

Adhara message her forehead as she’s started to get annoyed by Hera, she hopes that Rex will come back quickly and address this matter.

Then suddenly, she can feel that Rex is near.

‘Did he came back? How did he suddenly appear?’, She thought before going to Rex.

After a couple of minutes, 

Adhara met Rex at the main entrance, just when he’s about to go out of the university.

But before she can call out to Rex, a hand suddenly grabbed her from the back.

Adhara looks to her back and saw Hera with another guy beside her, “What do you want? I told you I can’t help you”

“Look, Rex is back you can talk to him instead”, She added while pointing at Rex.

Hera glance at Rex who is leaving the university before she said, “Follow me, I tried to save you some trouble but you just can’t get a hint”

Adhara glances at Hera in confusion, she doesn’t understand what she’s talking about.

The guy beside Hera then added, “Adhara please follow us, the principal wanted to meet you to discuss something”

Hearing this, Adhara wanted to deny but the guy insisted.

She glances to her back and saw Rex is already gone, 

Without having any other choice, she finally nodded her head and follow the guy and Hera to the principal’s office.

Arriving at the principal’s office, she was greeted by a huge room.

The principal’s room consists of two floors, 

The first floor is mainly made of wood and it brings a medieval feeling into it, two big red sofas in the middle to attend guests, a table for the principal to sit on the back of the red sofa, and the room is filled with antique lamps.

The second floor, however, is filled with books from historical books and spellbooks.

Adhara glance around the room in awe, it’s her first time going to the principal room. In fact, she might be the first student to enter this room.

Hera and the guy already left Adhara alone in the room, she’s confused about what to do.

But then, “Adhara Alpenore, the second strongest first-year student just after Rex”

Hearing this, Adhara looks up and saw the principal reading a book on the second floor. The black saber is still flying beside the principal’s side, it is the principal’s trait.

The principal then came down with a book in his hand, he then sits on the red sofa.

He then signals Adhara to sit in front of him without even looking at her eyes.

Adhara’s body becomes tense, 

In front of her lies the most powerful Awakened in the university, his power is said to be that of a mid-rank eight or even higher!

In front of such a man will make even the strongest will person be pressured.

She then sits on the red sofa in front of the principal politely, she didn’t want to anger the principal in any way.

“You’re just a mediocre student before, but all of that changed when you meet Rex”, the principal said closing the book in his hand while raising his eyes to meet Adhara’s.

He then added, “Is it a coincidence?”

Hearing this, Adhara held her breath unconsciously.

Adhara got stunned by the principal’s random question, she didn’t know what to answer.

There is a slight pause where the principal gazing at Adhara’s eyes, his cold piercing eyes make Adhara lower her gaze feeling the pressure pressing on her.

The principal then averts his gaze and said, “Do you know why I called you here?”

“Is it about Rex leaving Ochyra University to Faraday University?”, Adhara said meekly, that’s what Hera has been trying to convince her to do.

The principal then snaps his finger before two drinks suddenly appear in front of them.

He then takes the drink slowly before he said, “That’s not quite the case. You’re called here because I have a proposition for you”

Adhara widened her eyes in shock, “Proposition for me? Not for Rex?”

“You see, I’m quite interested in you as a student more than Rex”, the principal said while giving Adhara a piece of paper.

He then added, “Our university will start slow, but they can’t deny the potential of so many students that are currently studying here”

Ochyra University’s students are more than ten times as many as other universities, and that is also true for the Awakened learning here.

With so many Awakened, if developed well then Ochyra University will be a formidable university.

“Other universities felt threatened by our existence, that is why many of our students are scouted with better benefits”, the principal said while Adhara started reading the content of the proposition.

After reading through the proposition, Adhara said in surprise, “You’ll heal my father’s hand?”

The principal nodded his head, “We will also promise you to be our priority and will be given a lot of benefits when the time comes, all you have to do is sign the contract in front of you and stay with us in Ochyra University”

Adhara becomes hesitant, the proposition is quite appealing for her.

Although she’s afraid of her father, she also can’t deny that she wanted to see his father becomes happy and normal again.

“You can think about it, but just know that I have other candidates”, the principal said with a mysterious smirk.

Meanwhile,

Rex arrives in the house where Edward and the others are training, he saw Edward on the balcony smoking cigarettes.

Edward notices him before he waves his hand.

Rex approaches Edward before he pinches the cigarettes in Edward’s hand, “Stop smoking, you’ll die early if you keep doing that”

Hearing this, Edward smiles wryly before he tossed the cigarettes away.

“So, how’s the training went?”, Rex asks.

He wanted to do something about the Platchi but he needs Kyran to do something first, it will not work if Kyran can’t do this thing.

Edward glance inside before he said, “That Kyran kid, where did you find him?”

Rex smirks mysteriously, he then replied, “What about him? He’s out of this world right?”

Kyran is already embedded by the Dark Rune he got from the system, his stealth abilities become even more powerful making him a perfect guy to become a scout.

Not only his movement becomes silent, but also he can blend in the darkness.

Assuming that Edward is surprised, he definitely realizes that Kyran is able to blend in the dark unconsciously.

“I have never seen anyone as talented as him, he will become a priority if he trains with us in the USR pushing us to the side”, Edward said praising Kyran.

Rex peeks inside and saw Kyran and Ryze reading something.

Edward then continues, “What standard are we talking about?”

“Normal standard”, Rex replied.

Hearing this, Edward then said pridefully, “With my training, he will manage to sneak around and gather intel if there’s no expert around”

“If we put him with USR standard, then he’s still trash”, Edward added while he shakes his head.

Rex chuckles, he remembered how they got graded during the USR.

In the USR, they went to extreme lengths to determine someone’s ability.

Starting from a virtual test that will put them in the most dangerous situation, the red box where they will be tested in their endurance to torture, and even be put in a real-life mission that is almost impossible for a normal person to complete.

So if Kyran was put into that standard, he’s literally trash.

After confirming with Edward, 

Rex goes inside the house and greets the two of them, he wanted Kyran to be active as soon as possible.

Both Kyran and Ryze is reading ways to get out of a dangerous situation that Edward knows, it’s a long list of detailed instruction that can potentially save their lives. 

“How’s your training?”, Rex asks.

Kyran and Ryze looks up, 

Ryze is surprised by Rex’s sudden appearance, while Kyran already notice Rex a while ago.

“It’s good, I think I can handle it”, Kyran answered, he seems to be nonchalant about it making Rex smile in delight.

Rex then looks at Ryze before he stutters under Rex’s gaze.

But after some struggle, he answered, “I still need more practice”

After nodding his head, Rex then signals Kyran to follow him to the other room.

Inside the room, Rex turns his back with a serious expression.

Looking at Rex’s serious expression, Kyran frowns, “What do you want to talk about? Is there something I need to do?”

Kyran already got the feeling about this.

“Yes, I need you to scout some places”, Rex replied.

He then explains, “There are a couple of places that you need to scout, I want you to note down all of the routines they do start from early morning to night”

While Rex is explaining this, Rex already takes out a map.

It is a map that he bought before he got here, he already marked the places Kyran needed to scout.

“If you can grasp their routine, on your call, you can disrupt what they’re doing by taking something from their inventory or even create chaos but don’t take too much risk”, Rex added.

Rex is talking about the Fireband Market manage by the Platchi’s, he got this intel from Sullivan’s spy that he killed.

Although he didn’t want to kill Sullivan’s spy, he still has to do it.

The Sullivan’s spy hasn’t reported back to the Sullivan yet, the information he got is pretty heavy and detailed making it a piece of important information.

If Rex let the Sullivan’s spy go, then he will report back to the Sullivan.

The important information then will be useless when the Sullivan knows it, Rex will lose his bargaining chip with the Sullivan.

That’s why, Rex have to kill him.

“Who owned this places?”, Kyran asks.

Hearing this, Rex then smiles maliciously, “Of course it’s our enemy, the Platchi’s”

“If you deem that the place is too dangerous, you can just leave and report back to me. No matter how important this task is, you’re life is still first okay?”, Rex added.

He doesn’t want one of his member to die, it will be too much of a hassle.

But Kyran catch it differently, he looks at Rex with marveling eyes before he said, “I’ll do it! I will definitely scout those places”

Kyran then left the room with determination, while Rex smirks after Kyran left.
