The Invincible Full-Moon System -
Chapter 147 Edward Meeting With Ugrok
Edward looks at the creature in front of him in shock, he can't believe that Rex manages to suppress his inner demon and spare a Supernatural.
The creature in front of him is a Cyclop, Ugrok.
Ugrok roared menacingly as his roar creates a pressuring force making the leader and his goons to be shocked, they can't believe what they're seeing.
'A Cyclop?! How did it manage to get here?', the leader thought in surprise.
Four of the men that got flung away by Ugrok are hurt, Ugrok's club swats the right of their chests making them hard to breathe.
The leader frown as his body burns with fire, it instantly raises the surrounding temperature.
Right on the back of his right hand, there's a rune glowing brightly on it.
The rune is different than Rex's black lightning rune and Adhara's purple fire rune, this one is complete as it glows brightly.
'He really is a rank five Awakened', Edward thought.
He then looks at the Cyclop that is towering in front of him, 'Can he beat a rank five Awakened?', Edward thought.
Ugrok's eye turns red as the vein on his body bulge, his tusks, and horns become sharper and thicker as his body also becomes bigger.
Edward looks at Ugrok as he can see Ugrok's body emits a dark-yellow hue.
Looking at this, Edward was surprised as he can feel the similarity between Ugrok's dark-yellow aura and Rex's white hue.
If Rex was to saw this, he will certainly get shocked.
The dark yellow aura that Ugrok emits turns out to be a higher form of Force, in term of Force Ugrok manage to surpass Rex and able to manipulate the dark-yellow force.
Without wasting a second, Ugrok dashed towards the leader.
The leader widened his eyes as he can feel Ugrok's aura threatening to overwhelm him, "Fire Magic, Sea of Fire!"
SWOOSH!!
The ground suddenly got enveloped by fire, it scorches the surrounding trees but Ugrok's movement is not hindered at all.
His body is enveloped by a dark yellow force barrier that blocks the fire from the leader.
"What?!", the leader gasp before he jumped to the side.
CRACK!
Ugrok swings his club madly as it destroyed many trees, the power behind his swing cannot be underestimated even for a rank five Awakened like the leader.
While Ugrok is fighting the leader, Edward sneak to the side.
He went to the injured men that got hit by Ugrok earlier and kill them off one by one, he doesn't have any mercy for people that threatens to kill him just a minute ago.
The daggers inside the box got put to work, it pierced all of the injured men without exception.
All of the injured men got killed instantly by Edward.
BOOM!
The leader suddenly went past Edward as he crashes into a tree on Edward's side, he got hit by Ugrok's attack.
Ugrok's body is burning with fire,
The dark yellow barrier got breached by the leader's spells, a rank five Awakened spells are also not to be underestimated after all.
But the weird part is that his body is fine, he didn't get hurt by the fire at all.
The leader struggles to get up, his body is bruised and bloodied all over after getting hit a couple of times by Ugrok.
ROAR!!
Ugrok roared, his roar is loud and it makes the air tremble.
BOOM!
A powerful soundwave was created by his roar as it flattened the trees around, it's completely powerful making the leader crosses his fiery arms in front to block it.
The leader got pushed back even though he tried to stood his ground, the soundwave is strong enough to push him back even when he's on guard.
Right after the soundwave ended, the leader saw some changes in Ugrok's body.
Ugrok's red skin started to emit intense heat, tears started to flow down from his eye but they got dissipated instantly by the heat.
If Rex is here, he will instantly know what Ugrok is doing.
It's the skill Ugrok uses for one last powerful attack, it even manages to injure Rex before.
Seeing that Ugrok's power is rising by the second, the leader went pale as he wastes no time and runs away.
Edward wanted to run after him but the leader is too fast.
'Shit he ran away, he's going to get us later', Edward thought with a frown, he knows that he needs to kill the leader but he can't do it.
He's not strong enough.
If not for the Cyclop, Edward might get captured by them.
'They must be a team sent by the Platchi, they want to use me to lure Rex huh', Edward thought but then he heard something approaching him from the back.
Thud! Thud!
Ugrok approached Edward and stop right in front of Edward, his red muscular body is covering Edward's vision as Ugrok's eyes look down on him.
Edward started to sweat, he can feel Ugrok's piercing eyes.
Ugrok sniffed Edward a couple of times before he said, "Ugrok think you smell familiar"
Hearing this, Edward immediately answers, "I'm sent here by Rex, I want to put this bag inside the secret place right in that hole", Edward points at the hollow hole.
Seeing this, Ugrok then signals Edward to follow him.
Every time Ugrok steps, it will make a thudding sound because of his weight.
One can tell that Ugrok becomes stronger than the last time Rex was here, he might even beat Rex if Rex didn't turn into a Werewolf.
Edward follows Ugrok to the hollow hole.
He can see Ugrok's big body got engulfed by the hollow hole, he hesitated for a moment before he stretches his hand inside the hollow hole.
In there, he can feel his hand got transported somewhere else.
It's a little colder on the other side, and he can't describe it but the other side is certainly different than where he is now.
After checking that it's safe, Edward then enters the hole.
What greeted him is the same scenery as before but this one is empty, he can't feel any living thing aside from Ugrok sitting by the campfire and another one.
Edward approaches Ugrok when suddenly,
"Woohoo!!"
A red skin toddler not older than one year old appears out of nowhere, he's running left and right with a smile on his face.
Edward saw the toddler run left and right, he's speed is fast for a toddler.
"Dyrmir, come sit down and eat the food Ugrok make", Ugrok said while signaling the red skin toddler to sit beside him.
Hearing the word food, Dyrmir eyes lit up.
In a flash, he runs toward Ugrok and sits beside him as if nothing happens.
Edward looks at Dyrmir blankly, he can see that Dyrmir has lightning-based power judging from the blitzing lightning that appears while he's running.
He looks at Dyrmir weirdly because Dyrmir has two eyes.
"Is he your son?", Edward asks hesitantly, he sees the resemblance but the eyes make him confused.
Ugrok glance at Edward and replied, "Dyrmir is Ugrok's son, he's a half-human"
Hearing this, Edward nodded his head as the two eyes finally become clear. Turns out Dyrmir is a half-human and half-cyclops, which explains his odd body.
Edward didn't get angry or anything, Ugrok manages to survive despite Rex knowing the half-human.
This means that Rex trusted him, and Dyrmir is not a bastard kid that is forced into this world.
Ugrok then asks, "What is in the bag?"
Edward raises the bag and said, "It's something that Rex told me to put here, you must not open it or Rex will be mad"
Rex also already told Edward about Ugrok and Dyrmir, he told Edward that both of them are under Rex's mercy so threatening them using his name is okay.
After Ugrok put the black bag inside the hut, "What is your name?"
"You can call me Edward, I'm Rex's best friend", he answered, he then checks on the time before he sits back beside the campfire.
Edward then said while staring blankly at the fire, "I'm leaving when it's clear, until then I will be staying here"

Meanwhile,
Duncan is sitting in his office as usual when suddenly his phone rang, he lazily picks it up and puts it on his ear.
"Who is it?", He said lazily.
The person on the other end then said hurriedly, "President! We got a situation, a very bad one!"
"The spellbooks! They're gone from our inventory, someone took it!T", the person on the other end added with a trembling voice.
Hearing this, Duncan stands up from his seat in shock.
He then shouted, "They WHAT?! HOW CAN THIS HAPPEN?!"
"The alarm rang and our men went there immediately, but when they got there the box is already gone"
Duncan widened his eyes in shock, his fingers are trembling as he heard every last word from the phone, "Did they replace anything? any leads at all to who stole it?"
"They said they saw three people wearing white, they also wear red scarfs on their necks. One of our men told me that he saw them right after the alarm rang"
Hearing this, Duncan slammed the phone ending the call.
He sits back on his chair in thought, 'Three people wearing white, who are they?'
After a couple of minutes thinking, he then dialed a number unwillingly, 'It's better to report this to them than them getting to know it themself'
The phone rang for a bit, then the other side answered.
"Sir, I'm sorry for the inconvenience but the Spellbooks got stolen by three people in white", Duncan said with a hint of fear.
He's sweating while saying this.
The other side got very angry hearing this, but to Duncan's surprise, he didn't get any punishments.
The person on the other side only lashes out at him and curses him, but after that, he said to Duncan that there's nothing he can do to prevent it.
The person then told Duncan to help them search for it, and he also said that it will be dangerous.
Duncan was surprised but he still thanked the person.
After ending the call, Duncan then can relax a bit, 'It seems the higher rank families are on the move again, the thief must be a powerful one'
~
Rex and Adhara are currently in the car heading somewhere.
They both are wearing formal clothes as they speed through the streets, it seems they're going to a fancy place.
"Adhara", Rex called.
Adhara is looking at the passing scenery before she tilts her head to the side, "What is it?"
"You know we can tell each other anything right?", Rex asks, he still wanted to know why Adhara doesn't want to move to Faraday University.
Hearing this, Adhara turns her head away, "Hmm"
"So, can you tell me the reason you're not willing to move to Faraday University? You can tell me the truth", Rex asks.
Adhara went silent for a moment, she bit her lips while avoiding Rex's gaze.
After a couple of silent minutes, she finally opens her mouth, "They told me that if I stay they will regrow my father's hand. Although I hate him sometimes, I still want to make him go back to the way he used to be"
Rex frowns, 'Turns out they offer to help his father, no wonder'
He then asks the system, 'System, is there any item that can restore a normal human's hand?'
<Yes, Body Restoring Pill can restore a normal human's hand at the cost of 5,000 gold>
Reading this, Rex was surprised by how expensive it is but it's not that expensive to where he will lose all of his gold to buy it.
After confirming with the system, "Move to Faraday University with me, I will restore your father's hand myself"
Adhara looks at Rex with a shocked expression, "You can do that?"
"Just trust me on this", Rex said with a gentle smile, the system's shop has everything so nothing is impossible for him.
He will not be surprised if the system's shop even has an item that can resurrect the dead.
Rex pats Adhara's head gently, this act makes Adhara blushes lightly as she held her head down.
Because of Rex's action, Adhara can feel a warm feeling crawl up to her chest making her feel more needed by Rex.
This makes her look at Rex who is driving with a new light.
'Just maybe, I can really lean on him'
