Adhara's lips separated from Rex's as they both locked gazes,

Her expression can't be described as she stares at Rex's eyes, she did it so passionately that makes Rex for the first time averted his gaze elsewhere.

"Thank you", Adhara said softly.

Rex smiles as he said, "Your family is my family, so don't thank me for saving him"

What Rex said made Adhara's eyes go softer, her stare has a grateful and passionate vibe to them and it makes the room becomes even hotter.

But just when Adhara leans closer to Rex one more time,

Rex turns his face away denying Adhara's move, this makes Adhara frown.

"Rex? What's wrong?", Adhara asks in confusion.

Although Rex seems cold at times, he never rejects Adhara's move the way he just did right now, and this completely confused Adhara.

Rex turns to his back while scrunching his face, "Nothing"

Looking at Rex's troubled expression, Adhara would've been a fool to trust him.

"Just be honest, tell me what's on your mind", Adhara asks while pulling Rex's arm to her.

After taking a deep breath, Rex finally said, "You know, the Supernaturals"

"What about them? You're talking about the Strongholds?", Adhara asks softly, she drags Rex to the side before they both sit on the ground and lean on the wall.

The sandy ground is rough to sit at, but it's comfortably warm.

Rex's jaw hardened as he forced out the words, "I'm not strong enough, and also I should've known what those demonic cities are for"

"Why do you say that?", Adhara asks in confusion.

This makes Rex smack his lips in displeasure as he said, "I know that the Supernatural can turn humans into them way before the others, and the sudden appearance of demonic cities should've been obvious for me that it's just a decoy"

"To lure the top Awakened away from the Great Barricade!", Adhara shouted in realization.

Hearing this, Rex frowns in confusion, "Wait, you didn't know about the demonic cities being a decoy for the top Awakened?"

"I thought that the news should've been booming on the internet", he added.

This makes Adhara looks at him for a brief moment before she takes out her phone and shows Rex the news.

"BREAKING NEWS: POWERFUL BLUE DEMONS ATTACKED THE GREAT BARRICADE"

"DEMONIC EVOLUTION"

"SUPERNATURALS ARE ON THE MOVE"

"GREAT BARRICADE HAS BEEN BREACHED, THE CESSATION KNIGHT LINE OF DEFENSE"

Reading this, Rex widened his eyes in surprise.

"They are covering their mistakes!", Rex said in realization.

Adhara nodded her head in agreement, "UWO controls the media, and they will not let their ignorance or failure become known to the mass lest they wanted another riot"

"But still, we can't completely blame them when the AoL, SCO, and the riots inside and outside Ratmawati City are happening at the same time as the attacks", Rex said with a sigh.

With the number of problems coming from all directions, the UWO can clearly be seen as overwhelmed by the situations.

Because of that, they're caught off guard by the Supernatural.

Rex then continue, "I thought that I shouldn't think about the Supernaturals move and just focus on our improvement, but I was proven wrong"

Adhara listens to him from the side, she can feel Rex's frustration.

"If humanity didn't stick together, then we will be spelling our doom so we have to do something", Rex said with determination.

After saying that, Rex stands up and said, "Tell the others, we will be going somewhere"

But just as he stands up, Adhara caught something on Rex's left arm.

"What is that?", Adhara asks in confusion.

Rex looks at Adhara in confusion, he then looks at where Adhara is looking and realized that his red left arm can be seen.

Since he got back to the university, Rex has already worn long sleeves.

The reason for that is because of his burned left arm, even though it already healed perfectly but it is somehow still red and Rex is trying to hide it.

"Nothing", Rex said intending to leave.

But Adhara caught his left arm and rolled up his sleeves, "And what exactly is this?", Adhara asks while glaring at Rex.

Getting caught by Adhara, Rex smiles assuringly, "It's nothing"

"It's not nothing! Did you get this from fighting the demons before?", Adhara questioned.

Hearing this, Rex can only nod his head helplessly.

But he then said, "It's not something major you don't have to worry, my arm is good, see?", Rex flaunts his left arm left and right trying to show that it's not injured.

"IT IS MAJOR! When did the last time you got this kind of injury?", Adhara asks irritatedly.

Rex thought for a moment and realizes that he never got this kind of injury, "Exactly! So you need to go to the clinic and have the doctor check on your arm"

Looking at Adhara's serious expression, Rex can only sigh helplessly.

He knows that no matter how hard he tries to persuade Adhara that he's fine, she won't listen to him at all.

Finally, he nodded his head.

He then wanted to leave the room when suddenly Adhara calls out, Rex turns to his back and saw Adhara standing stiffly.

She seems to want to say something but she then shakes her head, "Whatever you do, I will stay by your side"

Hearing this, Rex smiles faintly and left the quiet room.

The day passes,

Rex wakes from his sleep early in the morning, even the sky is still dark.

He saw that Adhara is sleeping on his side wearing a see-through pajama, but Rex can't see the charm of it because his head is filled with thoughts.

After rubbing his eyelids, he get dressed and went outside and sit on a sofa.

The room is still empty as it is still early in the morning, even the butler and the maids are still not up yet.

He sits down on the sofa with a frown, 'In order to avoid this kind of situation again, I need to somehow convince the SCO to band together with the UWO so they can fight against the Supernatural without any internal fighting'

'But I don't have any bargain against the UWO or the SCO', Rex thought while shaking his feet impatiently.

While he's rubbing his forehead in thought, Rex suddenly remembers something.

'The question now is, where should I go first?', Rex thought while rubbing his chin.

But then suddenly,

Creak...

The entrance door opened as the butlers and the maids come inside the room, they're already wearing their uniforms and ready to work.

Although they're the butlers and the maids of Rex's room, they're not exactly living here.

They have their own quarter in Faraday University, and they will come here early in the morning just like now.

After the butlers and the maids went inside, they all are shocked as they saw a silhouette sitting on the sofa beside the entrance under the shadow.

They all jumped in shock upon seeing Rex's silhouette.

"Sir Rex, you're up early today. May I know why?", the butler said politely.

Hearing this, Rex's eyes gaze onto the butler making him look down in fright, "What's your name?", Rex asks softly.

"Forgive me sir, but didn't I tell you my name before?", the butler asks.

Rex scoffs lightly as he replied, "I don't remember you telling your name, so I'm going to ask again, What is your name?"

"Stuart Tiller", the butler, Stuart said while bowing his head.

After knowing the butler's name, Rex then said, "I'm going to give you one more chance Stuart, I will forget about your betrayal but if you did it again then the butler beside you will be your replacement"

Getting brought up to the conversation, the younger butler on the side widens his eyes before he bows his head.

"I'm thankful, Sir", Stuart replied politely again.

Rex then added, "Also, I don't want too many maids here so arrange two maids only in here starting tomorrow and one of them should be Clarice"

After saying that, Rex waves his hand before all of them disperse.

Rex then opens the system shop after Stuart and the maids leave him alone, he scrolls through the shop and bought a couple of things.

'I should probably buy two high-rank spellbooks, and should I buy him too?', Rex thought.

After deliberating for a while, Rex finally bought the items before he went back to his room.

When he opened the door, he still replaces Adhara is sleeping soundly.

He didn't intend to disturb Adhara's sleep as he sit on the bed softly and takes out a demonic core from his inventory.

Instantly after the demonic core got out of the inventory, pure demonic energy permeated to the surroundings and it startled Adhara as she jumps out of the bed and takes her daggers on the side.

Realizing the impact of the demonic core, Rex immediately put it back.

"What the heck was that?", Adhara asks in surprise.

Rex approach Adhara slowly with a wry smile, "Calm down, it's just an item I got from the demons", he said trying to calm Adhara down.

"You startled me", Adhara said with a sigh.

But when Adhara just put down her daggers, "Here, for you", Rex said.

He tossed two spellbooks that he bought from the system, it's the spellbooks he bought a while before and another he just bought.

Adhara looks at the spellbooks in confusion, "That's two Great Spells I got for you, I assume you already reach rank five?"

Hearing this, Adhara smiles as a rune glows on the back of her hands.

Rex chuckles seeing Adhara's proud expression, little did she know that Rex already knew that she had already entered the fifth rank.

'System, is there a soundproof rune I can use to not let the demonic energy go out of this room?', Rex asks the system.

<Do the user want to buy a Suppression Rune for 1,500 gold?>

'Yes!', Rex answered as the rune appear in his inventory.

After that, Rex stands up and touches the wall.

Adhara looks at Rex weirdly as he touches the wall, but after Rex lifts up his hand there is a white glowing rune on the wall which surprises Adhara.

Seeing this, Adhara didn't get surprised anymore because it is Rex.

Rex chuckles lightly, He approaches Adhara with his light steps and stops in front of her,

After stopping in front of her, Rex leans closer, "I got a gift for you, do you want it on your neck like last time?", he whispers in Adhara's ear.

This makes Adhara widen her eyes in shock, she didn't understand what Rex means by that and it makes her face red like a tomato.

She stammers as she said, "W-What do you mean by that?"

"This!", Rex said with a smirk.

GRAB!

Rex suddenly holds Adhara's on her neck, he lifts her up from the ground, "Brand!"

Swoosh!!

Right after Rex instructs the branding process to the system, Adhara can feel that her neck is burning from Rex's touch.

It brought her back to the first time she turns into a Werewolf.

But this time it's not a metaphor, but rather the burning sensation is literally as the purple flame in her body burst enveloping her body in flame.

"Arrghh!!", Adhara shouted painfully.

<Please do not remove the user's hand>

The process kept going for about two minutes of agony, but as the process progressed Adhara's purple flame also becomes stronger.

It scorched her body in flame as her veins bulge,

<Branding Process Completed!>

After the system gave the notification, Rex let go of her neck as she fall to the ground.

Her chest is heaving up and down as her sweat makes her pajama drenched, the process is painful enough that she need to rest for a few minutes just to talk.

"You could've at least warned me before doing it", Adhara said weakly.

Hearing this, Rex chuckles lightly, "You said you like it last time, so I assume you are always ready for that", he said playfully.

Adhara can only roll her eyes as she said, "What did you do?"

"Show me your purple fire", Rex asks before he sat on the edge of the bed.

Adhara stands up with a struggle as her legs shake uncontrollably, Rex smirk playfully while looking at Adhara.

"Shut up!", Adhara said irritatedly.

Rex can only hold up his hands while waiting for Adhara to stand up.

After she stands up, she then activates her elements as a purple fireball appears on her hand that is blazing powerfully.

Swoosh!!

Rex and Adhara widened their eyes in shock,

They both are surprised by the sudden change in the purple fire, it's not an exaggeration to say that it's twice as powerful as before.

"Damn, I think I just make you stronger than me", Rex said jokingly.

If he uses only his black lightning against her now, he probably will not win thanks to the Fire Rune he got from the quest before.

Adhara snap out of her daze, "Well you better start being good to me", she said playfully too.
