Chapter 225: Unseen Storm
“I’m not a member of the 25 Golden Crest Families, Why am I invited?”, Rex said in confusion.
The content of the invitation clearly stated the place and time of the banquet and also that it’s exclusively for the 25 Golden Crest, and Rex is not a part of the 25 Golden Crest.
So he doesn’t get why Stevanus asks him to go.
He did made a deal with the Reed Family and become their friends, but it’s still not enough reason for him to be invited to the banquet.
Ari then replied, “I don’t know the details, I’m just a messenger”
Hearing this, Rex waves his hand as Ari left the place the same way he appeared.
Rex is still frowning while looking at the invitation, ‘Is Stevanus going to challenge the Atkins Family? If that’s so then it makes sense for me to be there I guess’
After deliberating for a while, Rex puts the invitation in his pocket.
He called for Delta who is still bullying Ryze, she runs towards Rex and stops right in front of him with a dazed Ryze on her back.
“Alright, Ryze here will play with you so you will not get bored but put him down for now”, Rex said with a chuckle.
Hearing this, Delta licked Rex’s face in delight before he shakes Ryze off of her back.
Thud!
Ryze fall from Delta’s back butt first, “Ouch!”, he groaned as he rubbed his hurting butt.
He then stands up before he runs to Rex’s back in hurry fearing Delta will grab him again, but he still peeked from Rex’s back shyly.
Rex knows that Ryze didn’t mind playing with Delta, in fact, he too is happy.
After escorting Delta back to the building, Rex and Ryze went back to the room.
They already played with Delta for quite a bit and he needs to get back on track, ‘Let’s wait for the others first’, Rex thought.
Arriving in the room, Ryze was shocked to find the closet is full of clothes.
He excitedly takes the clothes out and tries each of them, and he’s surprised that all of the clothes are fit for him which means the clothes are his.
Not for Kyran,
Rex looks at Ryze’s excited expression with a slight smile before the door beside Ryze’s room opened as Rosie came out.
Rosie was stunned to see Rex, but her expression turns normal on a whim.
“How’s the trip? Is fighting the demons fun?”, Rosie asks teasingly.
Rosie walks closer to Rex who is in front of Ryze’s room, he then said, “Nothing much, just realized that I’m not strong enough”
“You’re not strong enough?”, Rosie said in aghast.
Her expression is pale as if she saw a ghost, the words that came out of Rex’s mouth surely make her surprised every time.
Rex looks at her in confusion, she then added, “You’re the strongest here, what do you mean not strong enough?”
“Unlike you, I want to fight the Supernaturals not humans”, Rex said coldly.
Hearing this, Rosie rolled her eyes and walks past Rex.
But just as Rosie was about to leave the room, Rex suddenly remembered something, “Rosie!”, Rex called out hurriedly.
Rosie stops on her track and turns around lazily, “What is it?”
Rex approaches Rosie before he grabs Rosie’s wrist and drags her to his room,
This caught Rosie by surprise because she didn’t expect to get dragged by Rex to his room, this makes her face blush as she stands stiffly with the door on her back.
Both of them are alone in the room, and both of them clearly are not on the same page.
Rex is frowning hard trying to force out his word, while Rosie becomes even more blushed as she saw the veins on Rex’s neck.
It’s like Rex is holding back something, and Rosie’s mind flew to the time they’re on the train.
Remembering the rough kiss and Rex’s forceful intimate act, Rosie’s face becomes even redder as she subconsciously touches her back waist.
But just as Rosie’s mind becomes even wilder, Rex then finally said, “Do you know anything about the Lunar Eclipse?”
Hearing this, Rosie widened her eyes in confusion, “Eh?”
“I mean, you know about the violet moon so I’m asking if you know about the Lunar Eclipse? You said that you read it in a book”, Rex added innocently.
The more Rex kept going, Rosie’s expression turns darker.
“It’s just that I need to know about it”, Rex added again.
But then suddenly, “YOU JERK!!”, Rosie shouted before she opened the door and left.
Looking at this, Rex was confused.
He runs out of his room and saw Rosie was about to leave, “Wait!! What’s wrong with you”, Rex shouted as he catch Rosie’s arm again.
“You just mock me before and now you want me to help you?”, said Rosie feeling annoyed.
Rex was at a loss for words because now that he think about it, what Rosie said is true, “I’m sorry, if you don’t want to tell me then just give me the book you read”
“What will I get if I tell you? Aren’t YOU supposed to know more about it than me?”, Rosie asks back with a weird look.
This makes Rex stunned, but he quickly recovers, “The terms are different, you wouldn’t get it”
“Fine then, make me one of your group then I will tell you about all of it”, Rosie said while crossing her arms in front of her.
She hesitated for a moment when he saw the butler is looking at them.
But her taunting expression somehow makes Rex irritated, “That’s different, you can’t just ask to join pa-“
Right, when Rex was about the say the last word,
Rosie widen her eyes signaling Rex to look at his back, and when Rex look at his back he saw the butler is looking at them from the side.
This makes Rex glare at the butler before the butler smile wryly and gets back to work.
“You can’t ask for that, even if I want to I can’t”, Rex answered honestly.
But Rosie thinks that it’s just an excuse, “Fine if you don’t want to, then I guess I will not tell you anything about it”
After saying that, she opened the door intending to leave.
Rex was about to stop her again but then suddenly, a man can be seen standing in front of the room that caught Rex by surprise.
From a glance, Rex realizes that it is Kevin.
“Kevin? What are you doing here?”, Rex asks in surprise.
He then continues, “Are you missing the room you used to live in? If so then I can let you reminisce inside”, Rex said jokingly.
This makes the veins on Kevin’s forehead bulge, “You just really have to be an asshole huh?”
“Then don’t just suddenly appear in front of my room, are you trying to pick a fight with me? Oh wait you can’t beat me, Do you want to challenge Adhara instead?”, Rex said with a smile.
But before Kevin was about to rebut back,
Rosie intervenes them, “I’m sorry Rex but it’s not always about you, he’s here to meet me”
Hearing this, Rex frowns, “What? When did you guys become this close?”
“It’s not your business and it’s definitely not your business”, Kevin said playfully, the triumph smile on his face makes Rex’s blood boil.
After saying that, Rosie walk past Rex and went with Kevin.
Rex’s face becomes red as he saw both of them side by side, he somewhat feel a slight sting in his chest seeing them both walk together.
“Well Rex, nice meeting you”, Kevin said with a triumphant smirk.
Rex then replied back with the same smirk, “Nice meeting you Kevin, be on your way then I need to go ask your sister something”
“What?! Don’t drag my sister on this”, Kevin said hatefully before they both left.
While Rosie kept walking away, there’s a smile on her face as she left the place under Rex’s gaze.
But after Rosie and Kevin left, Rex suddenly remember something, ‘I should’ve asked Kevin about the banquet’, Rex thought, he forgot about that.
He then sigh before he got back inside the room.
Night came, Rex is currently training in the quiet room alone.
After saving Adhara’s father from the demons, he now can get back to his training.
‘I need to get stronger faster, the Supernatural is closing in and I need to at least reach the eighth rank as soon as possible’, Rex thought.
He’s currently doing the technique Chandler taught,
Based on how efficient his training currently is, it can be clearly seen that Rex is using the Learning Pill from the system’s shop.
Lightning mana gathers ten meters in front of Rex, and it turns into a lightning strike.
BLITZ!
Unlike last time, Rex can bend the lightning strike at a forty-five degrees angle before it hits the ceiling which he never managed before.
It’s clear that he’s making progress, ‘So, Which one to go’
‘Caribidis Temple, Tree Blessing, or the Sky Temple’, Rex thought while training.
Because of his lack of power, two mission from the system is still sitting idly because of how hard the quest is for him.
He once went to the Caribidis Temple, and the creature there has sixth rank power.
Although he can fight with an early sixth rank creature with his Werewolf Form, he still can’t fight a mid-sixth rank creature.
That is why he needs to advance his rank to the sixth rank,
But Chandler still refuse to tell him how to advance to the sixth rank, he told Rex that he will not tell it until Rex can master the technique.
He can try to finish the Spirit Blessin quest but with the current condition now, with the strongholds of the Supernatural, it will not be easy to go to their territory anymore.
That leaves Rex with the decision to go to Caribids Temple, or the Sky Temple.
‘I don’t know what that lady wanted telling me to go to the Sky Temple, but I’m sure it can wait’, Rex thought.
While he’s thinking, Adhara suddenly came inside the quiet room.
She closes the door behind her and gazes at Rex with an unexplainable look, and this makes Rex stop his training.
After taking a deep breath, Adhara approach Rex slowly.
“What’s wrong Adhara? Are you done going out with your father?”, Rex asks with a smile.
But Adhara kept walking towards him without answering him, and when she arrived in front of Rex with a quick motion she instantly kissed right on Rex’s lips.
This caught Rex off guard, but the tears on Adhara’s face makes him soften.
It’s clear that Adhara is very concerned about her father, and knowing that her father is saved must’ve been such a relief.
Rex then replies to Adhara’s kiss as they both make out passionately.
~
In a restaurant somewhere in Ratmawati City,
Two men are sitting across each other while eating, there are three guards behind both of them that emit a powerful aura showing that they’re a high-ranking Awakened.
Both of them are eating quietly, and after ten minutes they finished their dish.
The man on the right side rubs his mouth with a napkin elegantly, while the man on the left also did the same but their leaking aura clashes against each other.
It’s clear that they’re not exactly friendly with each other,
“Whatever you say now, I won’t believe you until you can prove it”, the man on the right said.
The man on the right has a gaping hole in his hand, and his gaze is calm as water as he stares at the man in front of him.
Hearing this, the man on the left then replied, “The evidence is right in front of you, but you still denied the connection that can be clearly seen”
“What you said is a heavy accusation to a student, you’re just angry that he sides with me”, the man on the right said mockingly.
The room becomes even more choking as both men gaze at each other.
The man on the left then replied, “You’re just denying what can be clearly seen, I thought you’re wiser than me”
“What if you’re wrong? he’s an asset to humanity”, the man on the right replied harshly.
An intense silence covers the both of them again, and the man on the left finally said, “I’m also concerned about the Supernatural strongholds, but this kid might be the key used by the Supernatural to get to us”
The man then stands up before he added, “We’ll prove it to you at the banquet, and make sure to see what unfold with an open mind”
After saying that, the man on the left walks away leaving the room.
