The Invincible Full-Moon System

‘Oh yeah, that’s right. Flunra should know about the Lunirich, I still haven’t thought of an answer for the Countess…’, Rex thought remembering that he still has a question that he has yet to answer.

But knowing that the Countess is a complex entity, he doesn’t need to rush it.

Just like she said time doesn’t bind her the way Rex and the others were bounded, so even if it takes a couple of years for Rex to get the answer to her question it shouldn’t be that long for her. Because of that Rex is not in a hurry for an answer.

Rex also remembered that during the fight before, Flunra did something to the Countess.

What he did infuriates the Countess so it makes sense that the black dimension that they need to get through doesn’t quite fit Flunra, the Countess definitely doesn’t like him at all.

Cough! Cough!

Flunra coughs a couple of times feeling his entire body getting squashed by the pressure.

Upon waiting for Flunra to recover from the pressure given by the Countess, Rex looks around before he frowns finding many auras already surrounding him. It’s not that they know he’s here but the place is just crowded with Supernaturals.

‘About three hundred of them, most of them are Vampires…’

Rex tilted his head to the side hearing approaching footsteps through the bushes, the Supernaturals approaching consisted of sixth rank Vampires and a couple of lower-rank Supernaturals.

Despite knowing that he can take them out instantly, it’s best that he try and stay low.

Since the Werewolf race was said by Gistella to be the second hardest race to infiltrate due to their natural sensitive senses, it should be hard enough to infiltrate them when they were not expecting Rex’s arrival.

But it would be horrendously hard if the Werewolf is already expecting Rex’s arrival.

Grabbing Flunra by the nape, Rex looks around the place searching for a clear path before he dashes away vanishing from the spot like a ghost. Even the Supernaturals that appeared not long after didn’t sense anything.

A moment later,

Rex managed to get far enough from the Supernatural Tower that watches over the Great Barricade.

Even though he’s still inside the forest there are no Supernaturals in the surroundings, he lets go of Flunra that is still recovering before he sat by a rock on the side with his arms crossed in front of him.

“What takes you so long to recover from that?”

“Lucky you, Royal Black Prince. I don’t have your bloodline, recovering from a Lunirich suppression is not an easy task. If anything, other Werewolf that’s put into my situation right now would’ve died instantly”

With that, Rex can only snort waiting for Flunra to recover enough before moving on.

Meanwhile, somewhere inside Ratmawati City.

The girls arrived inside a forest which instantly makes Gistella frowns, the location given by Liliya is somewhere around here inside Whispering Penegulay Forest. It got its name because this forest contains Supernaturals.

One might think that how can a Supernatural survive in human territory, but they’re docile.

Since the Supernatural is docile and neutral in nature humanity didn’t put much thought into them, they are a race of spirits called Whisps. An occasional feeble hallowing voice can be heard that came from these Whisps.

It’s more like an astral whisper hence there’s the word Whispering in the name of the forest.

Upon seeing the place they got teleported in, the illusion looked around with his sharp eyes. While the girls waited for the illusion to make a move, Adhara suddenly saw the troubled expression on Gistella’s face.

“Gistella, what’s wrong?”

Evelyn glances at Gistella too and saw the same troubled look on her face.

Biting her lower lips while putting her senses to the max, Gistella then replied while still watching her surroundings carefully, “Forest is the worst place for us to fight an Alpha Shapeshifter, it’s going to be a very hard venture…”

“I know it’s hard to find a Shapeshifter, but isn’t it hard for us to fight in the crowd?”, Evelyn replied.

With the forest that is filled with nothing but trees, rocks, and dirt, it shouldn’t be that hard to find a Shapeshifter in this kind of place. On the contrary, finding a Shapeshifter in a crowd of people would definitely be hard.

So Evelyn was puzzled as to why Gistella said that a forest is the worst place to fight a Shapeshifter.

“Although your thoughts are not wrong, it lacks a piece of crucial information to consider. Due to its ancient nature, the Shapeshifter has one problem in this new era. Shapeshifters can’t shapeshift into your technology. Phones that many humans used, cars, and other gadgets, only King Oddity is able to shapeshift into that. Even Alpha Shapeshifter can’t shapeshift into that”

After saying that, Gistella looks at the surrounding environment with concern.

“But in a forest, an Alpha Shapeshifter can literally be anything. The mass of the target doesn’t hinder them, and because of that, it can shapeshift into literally anything here. Starting from a pile of dirt on the ground, leaves, rocks, animals, everything…”

Upon hearing this Adhara and Evelyn can’t help but sucked in a cold breath.

Turns out Shapeshifters has a weakness in this current era, and this area doesn’t have that kind of weakness. With no weakness in the forest, they can’t filter the things they need to be wary of.

For all they’re concerned, the Alpha Shapeshifter might just be beside them.

In addition to that they already got the necessary information from Flunra before, he said that Shapeshifter is the natural counter to a Werewolf’s senses. Alpha Shapeshifter to be exact. It’s mainly due to the fact that they can copy the aura, shape, and scent of the target.

But since the Radical Era all of the races are fighting against each other, Flunra has a method.

Flunra told them that back then every race has a way to filter the Alpha Shapeshifter through a rune, even Gistella doesn’t know this kind of rune existed. On the palm of the girl’s hands, Flunra already created that said rune.

It’s shaped like a warhorn, and it can’t be activated through their will.

Upon being activated the ancient rune will glow and create an ultrasonic sound that is barely audible for a Werewolf and inaudible for a human, but this sound can disrupt the Shapeshifter’s form.

“Now we know why Flunra knows something like this”, Adhara mutters with a shake of her head.

Evelyn also nodded her head in agreement, “Shapeshifters might’ve caused devastating casualties on the Werewolves back then and they were forced to research this method, I don’t know how many lives were lost before the Werewolves are able to create this rune…”

With that out of the way, the illusion suddenly gazes in the direction before dashing away.

After recovering from the suppression of the Countess, Rex and Flunra moved again trying to get out of the Vampire Territory into the Werewolf Territory. It’s shouldn’t take that long but the Supernaturals are very active.

It’s without a doubt due to the fact that the Vampire Stronghold has fallen.

Estimation of the both of them reaching the Werewolf Territory without any hindrance would be half an hour, but with the Supernaturals active they managed to reach the Werewolf Territory in a little more than three hours.

Rex wasn’t that annoyed by the delay as his mind if too focused on his objective.

Although the travel takes longer than expected as long as their venture didn’t get threatened to fail then he’s not going to be angry, ‘Feral Phantomclaw Pack and Teinar Family… I’ll get to you no matter what’, Rex thought boring malicious intent for them.

But as he just thought of that, Flunra suddenly signaled to stop.

Both of them reach a very wide river that is flowing with sparkling clear water.

The loud gushing sound of water can be heard from afar way before Rex is even near the river, so he already expected a river somewhere at their front. From the size of the river, it becomes clear why the sound of gushing water can be heard from afar.

On the other side of the river is another forest, but the trees there is charcoal black.

Not that it has been charred or anything but it naturally has black cores and twigs, they should be mutated plants that developed in this area but it should be different than the ones Rex has seen before.

“Why are we stopping?”, Rex asks impatiently, however, he knew Flunra knows this place more.

Despite he had already traveled inside the Supernatural territory many times now, he’s more familiar with the Vampire Territory, and even then he has little knowledge of it except for the places he has gone through.

Flunra points to the side right at a wooden pole stabbed into the ground.

Ornaments such as bone necklaces, drawings, and crystals decorate the wooden pole giving a savage vibe, Rex looks at this and realized that it’s somekind of territory markings or something of that sort.

“It’s the totem pole made by the Shaman, the mark of Werewolf Territory”, Flunra said.

Upon hearing this Rex finds that his expectation is right on the mark, it’s true that this wooden totem pole is a territory mark, the edge of the Werewolf Territory which is bordering with the Vampire territory.

Rex inspected the totem pole and finds energy cloaking it, and somehow it feels warm for him.

But he shakes his head before glancing back at Flunra, “You still haven’t answered my question, why are we stopping when the Werewolf territory is just across this river? I don’t have much time to idle around, Flunra”

“Don’t be hasty, if you want to succeed without King Baralt finding you then follow my lead”

After seeing the confirmation nod from Rex as he realized that it’s probably unwise for him to meet with King Baralt, Flunra then continued, “The wooden totem pole is linked with the Shaman who created it, but since we’re Werewolves we won’t be detected by it. However, if we want to advance further unnoticed we need to get rid of not just our aura and sound but also our scents”

Upon hearing this, Rex in reflex asks the system.

‘Is there any item that can get rid of our scents?’

<Elixir of Nothingness and Translucent Black Mundu are recommended>

‘Okay, which one is cheaper?’, Rex asks since he now has little gold left, he had already exhausted most of his gold forging the Amuerus Katana into a ninth-rank weapon and also weapons for the others.

<Translucent Black Mundu costs 100,000 Gold, does the user wants to continue buying it?>

‘100,000 Gold?! Why is it so expensive?!’

<The user has the scent of a Royal Black Prince, it’s a very strong and domineering scent that is very hard to be hidden completely from others, especially Werewolves>

‘Make sense…’, Rex thought with a sigh.

Although the power he got from becoming the Royal Black Prince and also King Mark, his item standard surely raises alongside them. It has never dawned on him before, but he really needs to step up his gold income at this rate.

Shaking his head, he then focuses back on Flunra, “How can we get rid of our scents?”

Glancing over to the other side, Flunra then replied, “There’s a fruit somewhere around here that can do exactly that, we just need to search for it and eat it. It’s quite eye-catching so it shouldn’t be hard”

“Can’t it hide my scent as a Royal Black Prince?”, Rex asks since the system has stated that.

Hearing this Flunra rubs his chin before he nodded his head, “It’s quite potent so it should be able to hide your royal scent, there’s no need to worry about that. We just need to find the fruit”

Upon hearing this, Rex can’t help but frown.

‘If we need to get rid of our scents, why didn’t we just cover our body using the blood of mutated animals? I’ve sensed many of them around here and it should be faster’, Rex thought in realization.

But as if Flunra can read Rex’s mind, he glances back at Rex.

“Covering ourselves with mutated animal’s scent will make us be picked up by the wooden totem pole, many have tried that before and got caught by the wooden totem. It’s going to expose us so the fruit is the only option”, Flunra explained.

Without any other choice, both of them search for the fruit Flunra is talking about.

The fruit is called Unscented Violet Bilimbi which as the name implies has an eye-catching violet color, in this forest that is mainly covered by the bleak color of brown, green, and grey it shouldn’t be that hard to find the fruit.

Splitting from each other, Rex and Flunra searches for the fruit that should be perching on a tree.

From what Flunra knows the fruit lived its entire life as a parasite of another mutated plant, because of that Rex mainly searches for the fruit on the surrounding trees. In just a few minutes, he finally finds one.

Rex can’t hide his excited face as he plucks one out before scanning it with the system.

<Unscented Violet Bilimbi>

A parasitic seventh-rank mutated plant that has the effect of erasing the scent of the eater, it also has a taste similar to the blood which provides great pleasantries for the Vampire Royals as the substitute for Human blood.

Upon reading this, Rex can’t help but looks at the fruit in a different light.

‘Substitute for human blood? Does it taste like human blood too? I’m not liking this…’, Rex thought with a frown, the thought of drinking human blood is something that makes him put the fruit further away from him.

But knowing that he needed the fruit, he had no choice but to eat it, ‘Here goes nothing…’

Crunch!

Unlike what he had expected, the Unscented Violet Bilimbi has crunchy skin before the violet juices inside of it pour into Rex’s mouth. It made his eyebrows crease together feeling the iron taste in his mouth.

It definitely tastes like human blood, Rex has no doubt about it. But he forces everything in.

After gulping the violet juice he threw away the skin before conditioning his mind, he bought water from the system shop before gulping it down in one go trying to erase the taste of iron in his mouth.

Rex pants heavily after drinking the water, he decided to ignore the taste and check his body.

Sniffing his arm, Rex can’t help but frown in realization, ‘How can I smell my own scent? Is that even possible?’, he thought in confusion, but then a notification from the system appeared.

<Eat 5 more Unscented Violet Bilimbi to erase the user’s scent completely>

Upon reading this Rex’s shoulders slouches as turns out he still needs to eat a couple more Unscented Violet Bilimbi, but he didn’t sit idly and started searching for more. But as he was jumping to a tree to pluck the fruit, he suddenly looks to the side.

“Hmm… there is a group of Supernaturals near Flunra”, Rex thought.

Without wasting more time he immediately leaps from tree to tree heading to the group of Supernaturals, and when the group of Supernatural finally emerges Rex can’t help but grin.

“Oh… Werewolves!”
