Chapter 727 A Better Idea
As he suffered gruesome injuries from the battle against the Executor that drained his powers and prevented him from accessing the Blood Moon King Mark, his presence and scent had weakened greatly until it was barely able to be sensed.
Even for his own pack members, finding him is as difficult as finding a particular ant.
Most of them would probably think that he was dead because his presence essentially disappear from their radar, and that struck a huge blow to his pack members especially Adhara and Evelyn that are basically his lovers at this point.
If he doesn’t meet with Delta, Evelyn, and Adhara would probably be unable to find him.
Rex can feel the painful desperation emitted from Adhara’s warm body, he was crying profusely while wrapping her arms around him. But he doesn’t mind, he made her worry and at the very least he could do is let her let out her emotions and comfort her for a bit.
On the back, Flunra gave a slight nod, a hint of relief can be seen on his face.
Although the others were worried about him very much, Flunra is the only one that really knows of the Executor’s power, and he was also the most relieved when Rex managed to return back from the evil clutches of that ancient evil.
For almost ten minutes, Adhara keeps on crying in Rex’s embrace.
But as the Female Alpha of the Silverstar Pack that is tasked to replace him when he’s not around, Rex can’t lie that Adhara has taken the first measure to handle the situation perfectly. With the castle secured with the help of the Dark Elves, they don’t need to worry about the Executor for a while as long as they stayed put and do not make unnecessary attention-grabbing events.
It came at the cost of her holding back her emotions, and that alone shows Adhara’s growth.
‘Hmm… I wonder what makes her act like this? I thought she would do practically the same as what Evelyn did when I suddenly disappeared like that’ Rex thought for a brief moment, his eyes then landed on Flunra who stands in front of him. ‘Flunra, huh…’
The first guess that he would point at would definitely be Flunra.
Even Flunra managed to give him some good advice due to his long experience of living, and the chaotic situation when Rex disappeared would probably be pacified by him. None of the others has that kind of trait, only Flunra has it.
Soon enough Adhara retracted back and wipe her tears, “I’m glad you’re back”
Rex nodded his head firmly before his attention shifted to Flunra, his eyes then fixed on a particular place on Flunra’s back before he declared to the others, “The Executor has awakened, he’s created by the First Human Emperor from the ancient times. I don’t know who he is, but he must be very strong because his creation, the Executor is already way stronger than me”
Hearing this declaration, the others draw a sharp breath, feeling the situation is surreal.
For someone like Rex that can take on two ninth-rank realm Awakened with relative ease to say that there’s someone stronger than him is definitely unbelievable, he was at the peak of strength in the entire world. A ninth-rank realm is the highest realm known in this current era.
But now they started to doubt it, there must be a higher realm of power than the ninth-rank realm.
Compared to the Executor that has just broken out of his seal and renounced his presence to the entire world, the other powerhouses don’t even hold a candle against him. And that alone is almost a fixed declaration that there’s an even higher realm of power.
Rex doesn’t find it impossible though thanks to the system that has higher-ranked items.
Even the Primeval Blessing Stone that he got from his early days of becoming a Werewolf is a tenth-rank item, and from then on he moves forward knowing a glimpse of power unknown to the entire world. A power that surpasses the ninth-rank realm.
“But there’s no need for you to worry about the Executor…” Rex added whisperingly.
The others raised their eyebrows in surprise when they heard this and also saw the blooming confident smile on Rex’s face, a smile that doesn’t have any sign of despair even though he has already tasted the Executor’s power first-hand.
Despite his condition, a fierce glint can be seen in his eyes, “I’m going to crush him eventually”
Adhara, Evelyn, Delta, and Flunra heard this and can’t help but marvel at Rex’s toughness, ambition, and willpower that rarely breaks down in immense stress. Many would break down when they saw a glimpse of the Executor’s power, but that doesn’t apply to Rex.
Instead of terrorizing Rex’s mind, the Executor’s presence fueled him with more determination.
For a powerful figure to emerge from the thin air and obliterates every known power in the current era shows that there’s still much room for growth, and Rex wanted to seize it until he become the absolute power that can change the world with a wave of his hand.
No more war, no more differences, he would quench their thirst for revenge with his power.
The self-assurance in Rex’s voice and posture was infectious, giving the others the same confidence that they could also reach the Executor’s level of strength somehow. His assurance instilled in them a belief that they were capable of doing so.
“As long as you’re here, I believe we can do anything” Evelyn said from the back.
Adhara also nodded her head in affirmation, “If you believe that we can beat the Executor, then I also believe that we can. Nothing can stand in our way, we would not stop until the nation you dreamed of comes true”
“Beating the Executor… It’s a dream nobody has ever achieved, but I’m here for it” Flunra chimed in.
Aoouu!
Not wanting to lose out to the others that showed their confidence and affirmation of Rex’s declaration, Delta also howled skyward loudly, showing that she too was in this impossible fight and would help in any way she can.
Many of them chuckle seeing Delta’s behavior, but they can resonate with her passion.
Rex then nodded his head before he turns towards Adhara, “For now, bring Delta inside and get accustomed to your new realm. I’ll go to you later for your development” he said with a commanding tone.
Upon hearing this, Adhara didn’t waste any time and obeyed.
“Flunra and Evelyn, follow me. I need to talk to you about something” Rex started trotting forward.
As he was about to head inside the castle with many things swirling inside his mind, Evelyn called out for him from behind, “Rex, what should we do about these Supernaturals?” she asked, pointing down at the pit on either side of the bridge.
“I’ll tend to them later, come with me for now” Rex replied while waving his hand.
Just as he was about to enter the gate into the castle, he suddenly stopped in his tracks when he sensed a change in the wind. Out of nowhere, the dawn sky started to get cloudy and make the entire place darken again.
Rex turns his body around before he looks up as a streak of lightning descends from the sky.
Blitz!
A thunderous sound resounded to the surroundings, drawing a loud yelp from the group of Supernaturals inside the pit. But Rex didn’t flinch even though the lightning strike hits the spot in front of him and charred it.
Soon a misty spirit appeared, and black lightning sizzled along its cloudy form.
“Devo, I haven’t seen you in quite some time. Have you finally come to deliver the good news?” Rex asked with an expectant voice, he knows that there was only one plausible reason for Devo to come back here without being called.
Looking at Rex’s current condition, Devo frowned but he didn’t mind it too much, “Yes…”
“I’ve wandered dozens of miles from the castle, nearing the other edge of the Dark Elves’ territory. I found an elemental stone mine there, and you’re not going to believe how untapped that mine is” he added, bringing the goodness that is much-needed right now.
Rex can’t hide his smile when he heard this, it’s a good decision to let Devo roams around free.
But then again he and a few others were the only ones that can possibly do something like this, there’s no Shadow Link between him and Devo which allows Devo to roam free while still connected to him in a way.
If it were any other Awakened, their spirit wouldn’t be able to get too far away from them.
Only spirits that are considered a high-spirit can have this kind of property of not having a Shadow Link, and Rex uses that to his advantage and let Devo search for an elemental stone mine by searching for concentrated lightning mana.
Now it has come to fruition, Devo finally came across an untapped elemental stone mine.
Rex then gave out the order, “Guard that place and don’t create unnecessary commotion, update me when anything happens” he then spun around and Devo transformed back into black lightning, taking the storm clouds with him as he blazed through the sky.
Upon entering the castle, Rex was greeted by the sight of his home and it refreshes him.
Not even wasting a second he traverses through the soft carpet and sits on his throne, Evelyn and Flunra are following from behind. Both of them stand in front of the throne, waiting for the instruction Rex would give them.
Laying his eyes onto the two of them, Rex then fixed on Evelyn and signals her to come closer.
Evelyn ascends the stairs in confusion before out of nowhere, she can feel an arm wrapping around her waist and pulling her body with one smooth motion. Before she can even realize what was going on, she was already sitting on Rex’s lap with her left arm over his neck.
“Your job is to stick close to me, I need you to help me heal” Rex whispered in Evelyn’s left ear.
Rex’s lips are dangerously close to her earlobe, and his hot breath sears Evelyn’s left ear, intensifying the heat in her cheeks until it feels like flames licking up her neck. She trembles, a delicious mix of unknown embarrassment or arousal bubbling up within her, a sensation that heightens due to the thought of losing him not too long ago.
Putting her flushed face down, she nodded her head lightly, “Okay…” she replied softly.
Soon her body slowly sparkled with purple energy which is recognized instantly as her Luna Energy before she completely transforms into her Luna Form, her clothes instantly turned into a snow-white dress that graces her presence greatly.
At this moment, Rex can feel the healing miracle’s warmth seeping into his skin.
It’s obvious that his regenerative ability was amplified by Luna Energy, and his wounds are starting to heal at an increased pace. Rex has done exactly as the system said, with this, his wounds would be healed in a week.
With that out of the way, he gazes back at Flunra who is still waiting patiently.
“Flunra, does the slave mark still hurts you?” Rex asked, his eyes directed at Flunra’s waist.
Responding to the Alpha’s question, Flunra nodded his head slightly, “The Slave Mark is still stinging me but due to the distance away from the Executor, it’s bearable. But if he comes close, it will causes the same effect as before”
Upon hearing this, Rex nodded his head, knowing that this is a problem that needed to be fixed.
Soon enough Rex was put into a pondering state as he tries to think of how to deal with the slave mark, ‘Hmm… there should be a way for the system to remove that slave mark, should I just do that?’ he wandered inside his head.
But for some reason, he can feel that he can utilize this more than just getting rid of it.ππ½ππ©xt.πΈππ¦
As he was thinking about this, Rex’s eyes suddenly widened as an idea came into his mind. A devilish smirk appeared on his face, even the thought of this idea becoming real makes his blood pumping with excitement.
‘System, does the plan in my head plausible to do?’ Rex asked, making sure of his plan.
<Yes, the user’s Exalted Royal Black Werewolf bloodline is a very superior bloodline that can almost match that of the Executor. Considering the level of bloodline, the user’s plan is plausible to be done>
Reading the system’s answer, the smile on Rex’s face grew even wider.
“Do you want to find a way to get rid of it?” Flunra asked, trying to guess Rex’s mind.
Rex’s face contorts in evilness as his eyes bore into Flunra. He slowly shakes his head with determination, and his voice is a hard steel blade when he says, “No, I have a better plan. We will confront the Executor’s main weapon with a weapon of our own- by using terror against his own terror. The Executor wouldn’t see it coming…”
