Chapter 326 - Explaining To Evelyn
"I'm in a very bad mood, so please die", Rex said with a crooked smile.
GRAB!
Rex grabbed the last guy standing on his neck and lift him off the ground, the guy didn't even use any spells or even activate his spirit thanks to the fear effect from the Alpha Bearing.
His mouth even trembling as he looks at Rex with wide eyes,
"Y-You're a Supernatural! You will definitely get caught sooner or later", the guy said strugglingly since his neck is being pinched by Rex's hand.
The bitter truth that comes out of the guy's mouth makes Rex's expression darken.
Although Rex already knows of this fact since even the Atkins are starting to be suspicious of him, he still doesn't want to think about it as he glared at the last guy.
With a deep breath, Rex then said lightly, "I know..."
CRUSH!
Rex gripped the guy's neck completely crushing it,
He did it so easily that it's hard to believe the guy that died is a mid-sixth rank Awakened, the Lunar Eclipse is really enhancing Rex's body beyond imagination.
Even Rex thought that the Lunar Eclipse gives the highest stats increase,
With one swift motion, Rex cut off two of the kneeling guys' heads killing them instantly.
Rex left one of them alive since he wanted to ask a few questions, 'How in the hell did they get suspicious of Adhara being a Supernatural', he thought with a frown.
From the meeting with Hans before,
The sudden event makes Rex wonder how did the Atkins get suspicious of them, Hans clearly wanted to test Adhara by giving her a silver glass.
'Let's hope this one has the answer', Rex thought with a sigh.
After killing the group of guys that are after him, Rex puts his arms on his waist while looking at the bloodied place before he said, "You can come out now"
Hearing this, Evelyn opened the bathroom door slowly.
She then saw the corpses lying on the ground as she was caught in surprise, there was not even much ruckus from the fight as Rex killed all of them easily.
There is a complicated expression on Evelyn's face,
Rex notices this instantly as he frowns and asks, "What is it?"
"You better start explaining, or I will definitely scream", she said with a serious expression.
Hearing this, Rex smiles bitterly as he points at the rune engraved on the wall, "Even if you scream your voice won't be heard from outside"
Evelyn follows Rex's fingers and saw the rune on the wall,
This makes Evelyn steps back before Rex sigh, "But alright, I'll explain it to you"
A moment later,
"So basically, you're a human once and somehow you turn into a Werewolf during your mission in the military. You hate Supernaturals to the gut but finally decided to use your Supernatural power to help humanity against the Supernatural, Adhara, and Kyran don't mind being a Werewolf so you turned them and make them your pack? Does that summarize it?", Evelyn said while looking at Rex seriously.
Rex nodded his head before he replied, "That's pretty much the story"
Although there are some things that Rex left out from his explanation, aside from that, all that he said to Evelyn is pretty much true.
Because of the ritual, Rex has no other choice but to explain to Evelyn,
The only thing he can do in this situation is to convince Evelyn that he's not an enemy, he can just kill Evelyn right here right now but he doesn't have the heart to do that.
All of the humans that he killed,
They intend to harm Rex or those close to him, and Rex was not going to let that happen.
So killing Evelyn here is just out of the option, and besides, 'I don't know why but I had the feeling that she will be an excellent ally, the information she possesses are very valuable'
Rex then looks at Evelyn who is thinking, 'Will she be okay if I turn her into a Werewolf?'
Evelyn raises her gaze to see Rex with a frown, her suspicious look is evident just from a glance.
'Probably not', Rex shakes his head pushing the thought of making Evelyn one of his pack members, he got three spots opened and he intends to fill them as soon as possible.
Then suddenly, "Why should I trust you?"
Rex looks up and saw Evelyn looking at him intently, she's asking for a reason to believe him.
Hearing this, Rex thought for a moment before he finally said, "In a couple of days, the temporary alliance of the SCO and the UWO will be signed"
This caught Evelyn off guard as she look at Rex in surprise, "How do you know that?"
"It's simple, I'm the one who proposed it to the SCO and I'm working with President Vargas to make this alliance happen. What do you think?", he added with a cheeky smile.
Rex decided to tell this just to convince Evelyn,
By saying this, at least Evelyn will trust him for a bit since this information is not common.
The temporary alliance between the SCO and the UWO, Rex doesn't know how it will go and the information will become sensitive if the UWO decided to keep their alliance a secret from the public.
Judging from Evelyn's expression, it seems she understands the weight of this information.
"Fine, I'll trust you for now since you're being honest with me. But just so you know, if I heard you make a move against humanity I'll definitely expose you", Evelyn said threateningly.
But Rex shrugs his shoulders since that kind of thing won't happen,
'I really need some serious motivation if I were to do that, it's just impossible', Rex thought, he's confident about his motives to humanity.
After talking for a moment, Evelyn's attention suddenly turns to the last surviving guy.
"What are you going to do with this guy?", She asks while nudging her chin to the guy kneeling on the ground, it seems that he's in a daze as he kneels on the ground idly.
Rex was even surprised upon seeing this, 'This never happen before', he thought.
The Alpha Bearing skill is an AoE skill that lowers the stats of all enemies that are looking at him, it never did something like this where it puts the affected target in a daze.
"I'm going to ask him about something", Rex replied while squatting in front of the guy.
But even after waving his hand in front of the guy, or even slapping the guy lightly a couple of times, the guy didn't budge as he stares at his front blankly.
Rex stands back up while looking at the guy in confusion,
"What did you even do to him?", Evelyn asks from the side.
Hearing this, Rex also shakes his head and replies, "I just use one of my skills, it should only lower the power of anything that looks at me"
Evelyn thought for a moment before she said, "Maybe it's due to the Full Moon"
"Maybe, I'm not quite sure myself", Rex replied truthfully, he still doesn't know the effects of this Lunar Eclipse except the information from the system.
Evelyn then added in confusion, "Why didn't I get affected then?",
Based on what Rex said, the skill that he used should affect anything that lays their eyes on Rex but now Evelyn is looking at Rex but nothing is happening to her.
"I exclude you from the skill effect, Why? You want to feel it?", Rex asks with a teasing smile.
This makes Evelyn gulp harshly as her eyes land on the dazed kneeling guy, she will turn out like that if Rex decided to include her in his skill.
Evelyn looks at Rex with a complicated look before a slight smile appears on her expression.
After trying everything that he can think of, Rex can't still snap the guy from his dazed state, and with a sigh, he decided to just kill the guy by chopping his head off.
Rex then sits back on the chair while waiting for the Sacrificial Energy to be fully absorbed.
Seconds turn to minutes as Rex waits for the process to finish,
The both of them had already tidied the corpses and Evelyn said that her men can handle this, so Rex didn't have to worry about the corpses.
Now they're waiting for the process to finish,
Rex only told Evelyn to wait and explains that the full moon is making his horn poke out like this.
He was not about to explain to Evelyn about the Sacrificial Energy that made him like this, so Evelyn nodded her head in understanding and decided to wait for Rex to collect himself.
After a moment, notifications from the system suddenly appear,
<Sacrificial Energy Absorbtion Process has been finished!>
Right after the notification from the system appear in his vision, subtle energy exploded from his horns before the horns make a cracking sound as Rex retracts them back.
The subtle energy can be felt by Evelyn too as she asks, "Is it done?"
"Yep, I need to go back to the Banquet since I need to do something for Daniel Burton", Rex said intending to leave the room.
He already left for almost an hour,
From what Daniel said, the 25 Golden Crest Families should be in a meeting so Daniel's son should be waiting for him at the Banquet.
Rex then said, "Is it okay if I leave Adhara here?"
"I booked this room for the Banquet, my men will come here in a bit so Adhara will be fine here", Evelyn said while seeing Adhara lying on the bed still unconscious.
Hearing this, Rex nodded his head but he got stopped by Evelyn.
Evelyn look at Rex in disbelief before she said, "Are you really going back to the Banquet like that? You sure are careful about your identity as a Werewolf"
This caught Rex off guard as he looks down at his clothes,
He forgot that his clothes are tattered with bloodstains all over, he just remembered that he just killed a bunch of people just now.
With a wry smile, Rex looks at Evelyn and asks, "Do you have spare clothes?"
Evelyn face-palm herself, she can't believe that Rex almost gets out dressing like that.
A moment later,
Rex was given another black tuxedo by Evelyn's men, he thanked the guy that gives him the clothes to change into. Even the corpses are also cleaned up by them.
Not a single drop of blood and death was left in this room,
Even the stench of blood was completely wiped from the room, they destroy all evidence and didn't even forget to spray floral scent just for Evelyn's convenience.
They come and go quickly per Evelyn's order,
While this is all happening, Rex is looking at Evelyn who just closed the door after the men left.
She turns to her back and stopped when she saw Rex looking at her, "Why are you looking at me like that? Didn't you need to go back to the banquet?"
"Start changing your clothes", she added while turning her head away.
Hearing this, Rex didn't answer as he immediately takes off his tattered clothes only leaving a boxer on him as he started to change.
This caught Evelyn off guard as she saw how confident Rex are,
Evelyn walks past Rex as she went to sit by the bed, she then shakes her head and mumbles, "I know I told you to entertain me tonight, but I can't believe you shock me this much"
"Your life must be boring for you to think that this is entertainment", Rex replied while zipping his pants.
The sarcastic remarks make Evelyn pout as she turns to look at Rex, but when she was about to rebut she suddenly stopped as she saw Rex's topless figure.
With a dazed expression, "I always knew your figure is good, but this is just...."
Hearing this, Rex looks up to see Evelyn and saw her looking at his abs.
Rex scratch his head a couple of times with a wry smile, "When you spend a great amount of your life in the military and hating the Supernatural though you're just a normal human, this kind of physique is not a surprise"
"What are you talking about, not all of them have your kind of physique", Evelyn rebutted.
But even after saying that, Evelyn can feel the vibes turns gloomy as Rex remembered his life in the military where his days were filled with the feeling of hatred.
Looking at this, Evelyn's smiles blossoms, "Can I touch it?"
"Touch? Touch what?", Rex replied stutteringly as Evelyn looks at him teasingly.
Evelyn then gets up from the bed before she walks closer to Rex, "Can I touch your Werewolf Abs?", she whispers while touching Rex's abs with her index finger.
Her gentle touch makes Rex's body stiff,
"If you let me, then I might let you touch me too", she added making Rex gulp harshly.
Now that she said that, Rex's eyes started to go lower.
Rex knows that Evelyn has a devilish figure and one might argue even greater than Adhara's, his eyes then fall onto Evelyn's cleavage that can be seen through her illusion neckline red dress.
He didn't pay much attention before, but the red dress really amplified Evelyn's charm.
Looking at Rex's eyes that are looking at her cleavage, Evelyn smiled teasingly but when she was about to make a move,
RING!!
