The Invincible Full-Moon System -
Chapter 488 The Nearing Wolf Moon
The next day,
Rex opens his eyes still inside the circle of runes he prepared for the Wolf Moon, he just finished meditating for his Lunar Element and looks up to the sky checking the time of the day.
The golden sun is already about to go down, the day is nearing night.
With the full moon starting to get nearer by the second, the moonlight energy is already filling the air as it started to make his body even stronger. Each of the moonlight energy that lingers around the place got sucked into his body as if he was a magnet.
Even by looking at his stats, Rex replaces that every physical stat starting to rise slowly.
Crack!
Out of nowhere, Rex suddenly slammed the back of his head into the wall behind him. A big crack appears in the wall. It was automatic, his body did this because of the sudden pain waves inside of him like a colony of ants biting his insides, this feeling is something that caught him off guard.
Rex tries to sustain the pain that is getting more powerful by the second.
Light groans escaped his mouth a couple of times alongside his neck and body which are bulging with veins showing clearly that Rex is trying to fight the pain. But even with the pain, his expression doesn't seem to change at all.
'System, what is happening to me?', Rex finally asks.
<Wolf Moon is getting nearer by the second, every Werewolf will be filled with the desire to hunt. For Werewolves that belong to a pack, in particular, the urge wants them to hunt together with the other Werewolves in their packs. The user is far away from the Silverstar pack members, the Wolf Moon will make the user feel a relentless amount of pain to try and force the user to move closer to the other pack members>
<The user's sanity stat is also low, the Wolf Moon effect has been increased by 4 times>
Upon reading this, Rex gritted his teeth before banging his head on the wall once again because of the pain. It creates a thunderous thudding sound and even with him holding back his strength, the wall behind him crumbles.
It's bad enough to feel this powerful urge, but now turns out it got amplified by 4 times.
Rex will probably be able to resist this feeling easily if he doesn't have a low sanity stat, but now because of his low sanity stat the pain and urges got amplified by a whopping 4 times.
To put into perspective, if he has a normal sanity stat he will feel a colony of ants inside of him.
But now that he has low sanity stat, the colony of ants inside of him is not normal ants but fire ants instead. Adding on top of that, the ants are biting each and every part of his body from the inside brutally.
Something like this is overwhelming even for Rex who has a high tolerance for pain.
At this point Rex can't stay sitting on his spot anymore, he's gripping and crawling on the ground in pain. His hand was about to go through the circle of runes but he suddenly got zapped by a powerful energy.
Rex got sent rolling on the ground after getting zapped by the powerful energy.
The entire circle of runes around him lit up with a bright light with the combined color of red, white, and black that are intertwining together, it's a barrier that won't let him out.
It's not even the Wolf Moon yet and the pain has already reached an insane level.
While looking down on the ground trying to steady his heavy breathing because of the pain, Rex saw his fingernails slowly turn into claws on their own without him manually doing it. Every part of his body becomes tense from the increasing pain inside of him.
Crack!
"Grrghh!", Rex gritted his teeth so hard trying to suppress his two horns.
Just like his claws, his horns are also wanting to come out while making cracking sounds.
Both of his eyes turn bloodshot as he tries to suppress his body from transforming this early, 'I need to hold out as long as possible, it's going to be bad if someone walks past here...', he thought trying his best to hold on.
Although Dupok City is in ruin, some people still come and go to this city.
Rex saw a couple of people that seem to be hunting for mutated animals around here, they are from the neighboring standing city that is quite far away from here. But for some reason, these people hunting perimeter reaches here.
Just as he thought of that, "Mister, are you okay?"
Hearing this, Rex widens his eyes before he slowly turns his head to his right.
There is a guy that doesn't seem to be older than him, at least below twenty years old. The guy is looking at him in confusion, he seems to be an Awakened judging from the aura he emits. But he's not that strong, probably in the third rank realm.
"I'm fine... you don't need to worry about me", Rex replied with a smile.
He hides his hands that are already turned into claws on his back, the smile he's putting on his face right now hides an enormous amount of pain hoping the guy will just leave.
But as if the world wants to see him fail, the guy approaches him.
While approaching Rex slowly, the guy is starting to frown when he saw the chains restraining Rex's body. If anyone replaces a man that is being chained in an abandoned city saying that he's okay, everyone will surely replace this confusing.
The guy's eyes then shifted to the side and replace two tombstones there.
"Are you here to visit them?", the guy asked innocently, he has a soft and tender face despite being an Awakened. The city that he's from is not that developed, it's a level three city with little to no Awakened so he probably is the diamond of the city.
Rex kept the painful smile and replied, "Yes, I am. Can you please leave me alone?"
"I would but you're restrained by those chains, do you want me to help you out? And what are those drawings on the ground?", the guy said making Rex even more desperate. It's already getting dark as the golden sun is almost drowned.
The moment the sun disappears from the sky signs the first second of the night.
Clank!
"Raarghh!", Rex roared feeling the pain got amplified once again just after the sun drowned, the chains are engraved on the ground and even when his body tensed trying to stand up the chains holds him in place.
Upon looking at this, the guy rushes to Rex without a thought.
This alone shows that the guy has a pure heart.
If Rex were in his shoes then he will probably be wary of getting stabbed or even thinking that the person is dangerous seeing that he's chained and surrounded with runes, but not for this innocent guy. He sprints past the runes before squatting beside Rex in worry.
Seeing this, Rex widen his eyes in absolute surprise, 'How did he get inside?!'
<Runes that the user has engraved are bound to the target of the imprisonment which is the user, anyone that is not a target will be able to get in or out of the rune formation>
'I made a huge blunder!', Rex exclaimed inside his head.
"Mister, are you okay?! Let me get these chains off of you first, I'll take you back to the city so you won't be eaten by the mutated animals roaming around here", the guy said without having any clue what he's doing right now.
Hearing this, Rex shrugs his arms and replies urgently, "No! Just get out of here kid!"
"What are you saying? I'm an Awakened so don't worr-"
Before the guy can even reply, he stumbles back when he saw Rex trying to get up once more but being held back by the chains around his body. The veins around his body look as if they were about to explode, he closed his eyes while clenching his jaw because of the raging pain.
Seeing this, the kid was surprised when he realized that Rex's hands are claws instead.
A yellow aura started to cloak Rex's entire body slowly turning his entire bearing into something that isn't human, the sight horrified the guy seeing that Rex's eyes slowly turned red and his teeth slowly turns into fangs.
The disturbing cracking sounds are also there, messaging his ears with terror.
After suppressing the pain within him, Rex glares at the guy that falls flat on the ground and said, "Get out of here, now!!", he shouted but the last part of his sentence sounds like a roar instead of a human voice.
Upon realizing that Rex is not a human, the guy turns around and started running away.
Rex saw the guy running away with his red eyes before his body jolted again making a metallic sound from him pulling the chains, his eyes then shifted to the tombstones in front of him with a sorry gaze, 'I'm sorry mom, dad... It's not my choice to become like this"
Just after he said that a burning sensation filled his throat making him look at the sky.
Aoooouuu!
A mighty howl escapes Rex's mouth as he howls while his horns slowly came out of his head exploding his body with powerful energy, it's the howl and energy of an Alpha and also a Royal Black Prince of Werewolf.
Meanwhile, inside Ratmawati City.
"Tandu, I'll leave you in charge of the mansion on behalf of Rex", Adhara said while walking out of the mansion, she's accompanied by Kyran who is already holding the black spear in his hand.
Hearing this, Tandu saluted with a stern expression, "No problem ma'am!"
"If I see Aldo or even the other men trying to sully the maids forcefully, tell them that I'll tell it to Gistella. She will rip their little worms and make a soup from it before feeding it to themselves, got it?", Adhara added with a bright smile.
But this bright smile makes Tandu unconsciously poke out his butt feeling a sting on his crotch.
Ever since Gistella beat them up in the training ground the Disaster Squad is in constant tension whenever she walks past them, it's like the Disaster Squad is seeing a general in the military. The attitude they gave is similar to that.
After saying that, Adhara lean to Tandu's ears before she added, "And also, keep an eye on Ryze"
"No matter what, no one can enter the house in the back yard. No matter who they are, if someone visited during our absence just don't let them near the small house"
Tandu nodded his head seriously, he knows the consequences of getting caught.
Ryze is currently a Heavenly Dragonman, a Supernatural. Finding a Supernatural in sector 2 that hosts the most powerful individual in the entirety of Ratmawati City will bring devastating consequences.
But one thing is for sure, Ryze will certainly be executed.
Thanks to the story Edward came up with, Tandu basically doesn't mind Ryze is a Supernatural.
After saying that, Kyran suddenly commented from the side with a lazy tone, "Let's get our matters here over with, I want to quickly catch up with Gistella and Evelyn"
Hearing this, Adhara taps Tandu on his back before going to the grumpy Kyran.
"You seriously need to calm down, I'm starting to get angry with that girl that broke your heart", Adhara said while checking the bag on Kyran's back, she looks inside before she nodded her head replaceing everything they needed is there.
Kyran glanced at her sharply upon hearing that, "Fine, I'm sorry. I won't bring that up"
While this is all happening, all of the Awakened guards around the front yard are bowing slightly to both of them in respect. Even though it's not directly, Kyran and Adhara can be considered important figures in Ratmawati City.
It's all because of Rex of course, but nevertheless, they're important figures of humanity.
After nodding their heads intending to leave the place, the both of them suddenly snap their heads in a direction as if they both felt something from that direction. Both of them frown but they decided to focus on the task at hand.
Just like shadows in the night, both of them disappear from the place.
Upon looking at this, Tandu shakes his head, "I'm aware that I'm already strong enough, but hell they're freakish especially that Gistella girl", he mutters with a sigh.
In another part of Ratmawati City,
A woman sitting on the sofa stood up upon seeing the front door is opened, her eyes lit up upon seeing a middle-aged man entering as she hang up on the phone and hops to the man, "How's your day today?", she asks.
Hearing this, the man shakes his head while getting his suit taken off by the woman.
"Just like usual, although I'm quite nervous since I haven't got any reply from the report I gave to the Silverstar Family", the man replied, his face looking a bit nervous remembering that.
But the woman calms him down, "Don't worry, Rex is probably busy"
"Yeah, you're probably right", the man replied before heading to the sofa and sitting there, he looks around the place that is decorated with many expensive kinds of stuff before he looks up to the ceiling with a sigh.
Just as the woman walks to the side to hang the man's suit on the hanger stand, "Ouch!", the woman felt a slight sting on the back of her neck resulting in the suit falling to the ground.
The man looks at the woman in concern, "Are you okay, my dear?"
"I'm fine, it's nothing", the woman replied assuringly.
When the woman takes the suit from the ground, the man that is looking at her from the back stood up and approached her. He then lifts the woman's hair up, "What are you doing? I'm ticklish", the woman chuckles.
But there's no playful look on the man's face, it's the complete opposite.
The man saw a black sheep mark on the back of the woman's neck glowing slightly with unknown energy, his expression turns pale upon seeing this.
With wide steps, the man heads to the window and looks outside.
Just as he feared, there are two figures outside that he instantly recognizes, "What is it, dear? Is there someone outside?", the woman asks seeing her husband's pale face.
"It's... It's the Silverstar Family, Adhara and Kyran are outside..."
