The Invincible Full-Moon System

Many things happened throughout the night, and it was a bountiful event.

Rex has finds that Adhara and Evelyn have started to use their logic more in approaching a problem, which is much needed for the two of them. It started when he got back from fighting the Executor, the two started to change for the better for some reason.

Additionally, he also gained crucial intel from Prof. K and Giana.

Not only he was now updated with the situation inside the human territory, but he also gained exclusive intel about King John’s change and also the Executor’s weakness which turns out to be cursed energy.

Cursed energy has never been a problem for Rex.

It was all thanks to the Eternal Curse inside of him, a high-epiphany natural curse that allows him to bypass most cursed powers. The Executor is probably not lucky enough to have this, thus he was injured by the Witch.

Other than that, his mind then wanders to the last folder inside the memory drive.

Since there were no outsiders inside the throne room anymore, Adhara and Evelyn ascend the throne. Adhara sat by Delta while Evelyn sat on Rex’s lap, coaxing her arm around his neck gently.

“What is it?” Evelyn asked lightly, seeing that Rex has something in his mind.

Although they still wanted to ask Rex to explain why he gave Giana a chance, the two decided to drop it for now non-verbally, through a glance, knowing full well that it was not the time for that.

Rex paused for a second before he gave Evelyn the memory drive.

Upon receiving the memory drive, Evelyn leans her body to the side and scours through the folders alongside Adhara. A troubled look can be seen on their faces, the intel inside the memory drive is not quite as they expected.

But in the first two files, the two didn’t think that they were the cause of Rex being like this.

It was until they reach the third folder that they realized what is bugging Rex’s mind, he was rarely overwhelmed by any problem, so it should take something special to put him in this state.

The last folder was not as useful as the other two folders, but it was a little bit personal.

Prof. K has made a brief report of what Edward and Ryze are doing inside the human territory, and through Intra Technology, he managed to find that the two are trying to get stronger to the best of their abilities to win Rex back.

Looking at the side of Rex’s face, Evelyn and Adhara sigh.

No matter how much he said that he doesn’t view Edward as his friend anymore, the bond is still there. Rex, as strong in strength and will as he is, is still not a robot. Some sensitive things still can get to him.

‘Forgive them’

Rex frowns when he heard a whisper in his ears, his mother’s voice is still looming over him.

At the spot near the castle’s entrance, right on the royal red carpet where the streak of morning light illuminates, a brown wolf appears in a blink of an eye. It sits there, looking at the stunned Rex with tender eyes.

“Mother…” Rex mumbles inaudibly, his eyes fixed on the brown wolf.

Realizing that it was nothing more than an illusion, Rex buried his face with his hand while sighing to himself. ‘I’m sorry mother, I just can’t. I can’t forgive them for what they did, you’re the most precious thing in my life yet they took you’

Due to muttering very softly, Evelyn and Adhara can’t grasp what he mumbled.

But catching the change in his emotional aura that turns into a deep blue color, Adhara knows that he was in sorrow and mistakenly thought of other things. “If you really want to, you can still bring Edward to our side…”

“I don’t like him, I hate him. But I’ll accept whatever you choose” Evelyn added.

Upon hearing this, Rex takes a deep breath before he gazed at the two of them with stern eyes, “No, let him do whatever he wants. As far as I’m concerned, he and I are completely done”

As he said that, the entrance door opened, and Flunra walks in.

Noticing that the four of them has gathered once more, Rex nodded his head before he decides to address the matter and keep on going forward. “Evelyn, Adhara, I want the two of you to go to the Dwarf Kingdom and asked them if they are able to repair my katana”

With a wave of his hand, Rex takes out a pouch with the shattered Amuerus Katana inside.

Out of the weapons he has in his arsenal and even most of the weapons sold in the System’s shop, the Amuerus Katana’s ability is still one of the strongest. It’s as powerful as an Origin Weapon, and he invested a lot in it.

Seeing that it was shattered is a pity, and he intends to fix it if possible.

“Also, make a stop at the Dark Elf Kingdom and ask them whether they know very strong mutated animals that have resistance against cursed energy. I can’t find any but there should be one in the Humming Damned Forest or around it” Rex added.

Even though he needs more training, time is pressing right now.

Not that the Executor is going to do something due to his injury, but it was the fact that if the Executor really fought against the Witch of Chaos, then she should flee into the Supernatural territory.

In this small timeframe, Rex can use it to track the Witch and rescue Kyran.

‘After I absorb the two-spirit cores, I’ll head out to search for the Witch. If the Dwarf or Dark Elf knows a mutated animal that has power relating to cursed energy, then I can stop by and devour it to prepare myself more against the Witch’ Rex thought, his eyes flashing with determination.

Upon hearing this, Adhara and Evelyn nodded their heads.

“Sure, but do we have your permission to scour around to train more? I’m still not used to the new realm” Adhara asked, she wanted to get stronger quickly too so she can still be of use to Rex.

From the looks of it, Evelyn also wanted the same, she doesn’t want to be a weak Luna.

Rex ponders for a moment before his eyes eventually landed on Flunra, “Protect them from the shadows, I don’t want anything to happen to them while training. Am I being clear, Flunra?”

“Yes, I’ll protect them with my life” Flunra replied, bowing slightly.

Nodding his head in affirmation, Rex then added, “Also, keep a lookout for the Witch of Chaos. It’s still just a guess of mine, but I have a feeling that she’s inside the Supernatural territory”

With that, the three departed as their fatigue has long been disappeared.

One of the perks being a powerful Werewolf with regenerative ability. If not wounded mortally by a higher power, then they are a killing machine that won’t stop no matter how much they are injured.

As the three left, Rex also left the throne room and headed to a particular hallway.

It didn’t take long for him to reach in front of a door, the door that leads to Gistella’s room. Grabbing the handle, he twist it and poked his head inside, finding that Gistella is looking out of the window.

Naela doesn’t seem to be here, she should be inside her own room training.

“Rex…” Gistella mutters when she catches a glimpse of him.

But her voice was hoarse and very light, almost sickly which pained Rex’s heart. At the sight of Gistella’s weak smile alone and her noticeably thinner figure, he felt inadequate suddenly. ‘I let Gistella be like this, and I still can’t find Kyran…’

Stepping inside the room, Rex sat on the edge of the bed and reaches out to caress her.

“How are you feeling? Is it still that bad?” Rex asked in concern.

Gistella replied with naught but her smile widened, she held Rex’s big and warm hand on her cheek gently before she replied, “I’m okay, you don’t have to worry. Focus on what you need to do”

Instead of calming Rex down, the answer makes him more anxious.

‘No, I can’t see her suffering like this any longer. I don’t need to save the chance from the System…’ Rex thought, he deliberates whether he should make an end to this by buying information about curses from the System.

Out of the three chances, he was only left with one.

Rex needs to know many things, starting from the Executor, the Witch of Chaos, or even the Lunirich Gods. Each of them has its own palpable threats, and that is why he was hesitant to use the last chance from the System.

It would be better if he can know which one would attack first, but he doesn’t.

But that dilemma has been dragged on for too long at the expense of Gistella suffering like this, and Rex decides that he would end this once and for all. She’s important to him, and he can’t let this continue.

“Gistella, you should be honest and say that you’re not okay” Rex replied back.

Just then, a spark of resolution can be seen in his eyes. At the sight of this, Gistella frowns, “Rex, I’m really fine. I can see through your eyes that you’ve come to a big decision. If it’s because of me, don’t do it”

“No, Gistella. If it’s for you, then I’ll do it… you’re worth it” Rex replied firmly.

Standing up from the edge of the bed, he then comes to a decision. ‘System, remind me again how much would the information about curses cost?’ Rex asked, wanting to make sure that it was way out of his budget.

<Cost for curses information is 200 million gold>

Upon reading this, Rex nodded his head. It’s way out of his budget, way off his budget.

‘If I buy it, will I know everything about curses?’ Rex asked again.

<Yes, the user will obtain knowledge equivalent to of that the Witch of Chaos herself. Sets of data provided will contain the history, types, power, and everything in between about curses. It comes straight from the Forbidden Grimoire, an ancient Origin Object for curses>

Reading this, Rex’s eyes lit up as he wandered something.

‘Wait, if that’s the case, doesn’t that mean I’ll able to use curses power?’ Rex asked.

Although he was only expecting information to help Gistella recover or at least get better until essential items to cure her were gathered, he can’t help but wonder if that is also a possible outcome.

If he can actually use curse power, then fighting the Executor might become way easier.

<No.>𝑜𝗏𝑙xt.𝕔𝗈𝗆

<In order to use cursed powers, the user must have a source to draw its power from. Without any substantial source, the user wouldn’t be able to interact much less use the power of curses>

‘Huh, thought so… it’ll be too convenient for me if that’s the case’ Rex thought wryly.

Then again, with the information he will gain, he’ll probably find a way to get a source and use the power of curses to fight against the Executor. ‘Okay, I’ll use the last chance to buy information about curses’

<Purchasing curses information using the last chance, does the user wants to continue?>

<Yes or No>

Upon being provided the two options, Rex paused for a second. Glancing at Gistella one last time, he nodded inwardly before his finger heads over to the ‘Yes’ button. But as his finger was about to press the ‘Yes’ button, his senses suddenly alerted him of something.

In an instant, Rex went over between Gistella and the window with a savage expression.

Gistella was surprised by this, yet when she glanced to the window she saw something is heading towards the castle at a rapid pace, blistering through the morning sky without a care in the world.

At this sight, Rex gritted his teeth and shouted, “Gistella! Get down!!” 

ROARR!!
