The Invincible Full-Moon System -
Chapter 518 Perfect Target
"Spirit age is relative to power but it can also differ from the spirit itself, some might reach the high spirit realm in just 5,000 years while some take 10,000 years. It all depends on the constitution of the spirit"
Upon hearing the explanation, Rex face-palm himself.
Back when he asks the system for a recommendation, he specifically said the spirit's age must be near Devo's age and also will be able to help his Lunar Dust Illusion. It's his wording that is wrong, he didn't know before but now he knows.
'I should've just said as strong as Devo instead of age...'
Although he replaces this small mistake turns out to be a bigger mistake than he anticipated, he can't dwell on his past especially when he already assimilated with Amanir. Soon a small squeaky voice appears inside Rex's head, [W-Where am I?!]
[No... you cheated, you use a cheat to stop me from moving!! Let me go right now!]
Just like Devo, now Amanir lives inside his head as an assimilated spirit that will help in his endeavor. Unlike Devo that is so full of himself at first, Amanir is more annoying as it kept talking non-stop wailing about the fact that Rex managed to catch it after using his Alpha Bearing skill.
'It's not a cheat, it's my skill', Rex replied nonchalantly.
But his little comment sparks an even more rampaging Amanir that doesn't accept being bested by Rex, [There's no use in assimilating with me, I will not lend you my power! Never!!]
The veins on Rex's forehead bulge upon hearing this, it's like listening to a kid having a tantrum.
Feeling that assimilating with Amanir is a bad idea as Amanir still acts like a kid despite having similar age to Devo who is above 10,000 years old, Rex then finally asks the system as he feels like he won't be able to last with Amanir as his assimilated light spirit.
'Can I undo my assimilation process? I'll choose the spirit myself'
<Different than regular spirits' connection that can be severed with only paying a small price of pain and resources, high spirit demands an even more rigorous punishment to sever their connection. Upon forcefully severing the connection with a high spirit, the user will not be able to assimilate with a spirit for more than a month even with using necessary items to accelerate the punishment>
Rex sighs helplessly reading the answer from the system, basically, when he severs his connection with Amanir he will be back to the fifth rank realm and stay there for more than a month before being able to assimilate with a new spirit.
It's not an option for him, he needs to create the perfect Lunar Dust Illusion in the following week.
A month is too long of a punishment for the current situation he's in, so without having no other choice Rex can only make do with Amanir before he eventually changes Amanir into a more proper spirit like Devo.
Having a personality is fine, but having a personality of a kid is not fine.
[We'll see how you fare without using my power, you're basically going to be just the same as other Awakened. You'll be going to keep being a Lightning Elementalist, not a dual Elementalist! HAHA!]
Getting really annoyed by Amanir, Rex then uses the suppression technique.
[W-What's happening? Why am I being cornered?!]
[If even I can't win against the suppression, then you don't have any chance thief!], Devo remarked with a hint of belittling to the cute fluffy Amanir that has its consciousness being pushed further and further into the darkness.
Amanir was aghast, [No way... that's another cheat! An Awakened shouldn't be able to do that!]
But despite keep complaining about the situation, Amanir's voice is getting smaller and smaller until finally it vanishes fully suppressed by Rex. After suppressing Amanir, Rex then sneered, "If I want to, I can use your power forcefully!"
"What do you mean?"
Upon hearing this, Rex glances to the side and replaces Evelyn talking to him.
It seems that he's so annoyed by Amanir that he unconsciously thinks out loud, "Nothing- How's your new element, have you evolved your element into the Ultimate rank yet?"
"That's easier said than done... I'm still halfway through", Evelyn replied with a wry smile.
Hearing this, Rex nodded his head before he told her to quickly evolve her bloodline and kicks her out of the room. With no one else inside the room beside him, Rex then sighs, "Let's fortify my light element first, and as for tomorrow... I hope Adhara will not hold back"
With everything out of the way, Rex went to sit on the red throne before starting his meditation.

Later that night, somewhere along the Great Barricade.
Many parts of the Great Barricade have been deserted as more Awakened and military men are focused on the two emerging Strongholds of the Supernatural. These deserted parts are still operating despite no man manually operating them.
Since the Great Barricade is the prized defense line of humanity, it has become the main focus.
Every breakthrough made by humanity that can help them in war will be implemented first in the Great Barricade, newly developed defensive artificial intelligence is online in the deserted parts of the Great Barricade.
As long as the defensive artificial intelligence is online, the Great Barricade is secured.
But there's one downside of using artificial intelligence in exchange for manpower that can manually do the work and take decisions consciously that are out of the rules, there are no physical checkups for irregularities.
If any damage is done before the artificial intelligence is implemented, then it's not recognized.
One such irregularity is a pretty big hole on the Great Barricade, this hole has been there before the artificial intelligence exchanged the manpower guarding the Great Barricade. It's big enough for a truck to go through.
With this irregularity, four hulking figures with glowing eyes steps inside the hole.
Defensive mechanisms such as the War Turrets capable of hurting fifth rank and even sixth rank Supernaturals, a translucent barrier that is strong enough to hold the attack of the highest ranked Supernatural, and even the newly engraved field detection formation under the ground didn't go off when these four shadowy figures walked in.
Anyone was to sees these four figures will instantly freeze in utter crippling fear.
Out of all the Supernatural races that exist only a few stands on the top, there are exactly six powerful races bordering humanity's territory near Ratmawati City. These four figures belong to one of those powerful races.
Devilishly sharp K-9 fangs, Black steel claws with furry bodies, even a baby will recognize them.
Werewolves...
Not just any regular Werewolves, they are not Omegas or Betas, but they all have the power and bearing of an Alpha. Each one of them is strong enough to instill fear in the toughest soldier of humanity.
Following these Alphas are two dozen other Werewolves that should be Betas.
"I can't believe the Royal Black Prince is this foolish, to actually leave an entrance for us to launch our harvest... guess he's still young", Zegrath commented while looking around the place with his hellish eyes, but there are nothing to see for a couple of miles.
Ruston and Ian nodded their heads giving their polite agreement of what Zegrath said.
But their eyes are stealing glances at Arnulf that is the one that can follow the scent of the Royal Black Prince through nothing but a strand of fur, it beats Werewolves that have the most sensitive senses.
Although a particular scent is easily followed, they need to take a huge sniff of the scent to do that.
If the scent is too weak then at some point the scent will disappear or their smelling sense can't grasp the scent anymore as it's too light, but that doesn't apply to Arnulf coming from the Radical Era. Someone that even for King Baralt himself called Primordial Werewolf.
Despite doesn't have the suppressing aura of an Alpha, Ruston and Ian have nothing but respect.
All of the Werewolves' attention was attracted to Arnulf when he suddenly glances at Zegrath, he then bowed slightly before he asks, "My prince, may I ask for a little of your blood? We're in enemy's territory and must be careful..."
Upon hearing this, Zegrath didn't reply and just slash his palm.
The blood seeping out of his palm dripped to the ground before Arnulf knelt. Every Werewolf present is curious about what Arnulf is doing, they saw Arnulf stabs his claws into the blood before starting to create somekind of rune on the ground.
It's a rune that none of them knew, shaped like a circle with two sides.
Arnulf dyed one of its sides full with Zegrath's blood while the others doesn't have any blood. Seeing this, Ruston is the first one to seemingly recognize the rune, "Rune of All Energy..."
Just after he said that the rune glows with a red light.
Before any of their eyes can even react, two beaming red lights shot into Arnulf's eyes like two bullets that instantly turns Arnulf's eyes glowing with a red light. Arnulf stood up before he looks around through eyes glowing with red light.
The process is not complicated and not long.
After about a minute of looking around, Arnulf then turns to face Zegrath before he said, "There is one-ninth rank Awakened northwest of our position coupled with four eighth rank Awakened. It seems they're making a blockade on the Vampire Stronghold, we should head east to avoid making contact with them"
"We're aiming for higher-ranked Awakened, why are we avoiding them?"
Zegrath asks as his expression slowly turns into a frown, his lips quivering exposing his sharp fangs.
"With our numbers and strength, taking down a ninth rank Awakened should be possible. It's cowardly to avoid a fight when we're one of the top races of the Supernatural", he added with a hint of contempt in his eyes.
Upon hearing this, Arnulf bowed lightly without any sign of anger.
Having thousands of years of experience dealing with those who are of higher bloodline and also stronger than him, his patience is off the charts as there's no hint of displeasure on his face. Arnulf then explained politely, "You are right, but they are in a blockade. Fighting them there will put us in a bad situation, all I'm saying is that we head east to replace solitude Awakened"
"Vampires already head to the east, is there any strong Awakened left in the east?", Zegrath asks again.
Giving a slight smirk, Arnulf then replied straightening his postures and revealing his confident expression, "Prince doesn't need to worry, the Vampires campaign consists of the Princess and they wouldn't be reckless"
"And besides, I already replace a perfect target..."
Meanwhile, on the far east side of the infiltrating group of Werewolves.
A group of Awakened bearing a silver star crest on their right should is led by a woman clad in armor coupled with a cloak. They are sprinting through the forest without troubling themselves with the mud that might sully their white armor, the woman has a majestic bow strapped on her back alongside its quiver.
Despite trying to move through the forest silently, the sharp aura coming from the woman is there.
The woman with light blue hair is without a doubt an expert, the pinnacle of power and also one of the pillars of humanity. If Rex were here then he will instantly recognize this woman, it's Giana.
"Lady Giana, the Vampire's last movement should be Zribury City. A mile north from here. If we're following their movement pattern, it seems they are aiming for level four and three cities to avoid the Cessation Knight defense line east of us. Their next target should be either Nuta City or Slago City, both are level three cities"
While sprinting through the forest, a woman with grey eyes explained briefly.
Hearing this Giana nodded her head firmly, she then glances at the woman and asks, "Is there any Awakened guarding those cities? If so quickly send the alert signal so that they can evacuate the city"
"Based on the report, the Vampires are feeding Blood Devourer with blood. We must prevent them from achieving their goals, if not the weapon will become a problem in the future", she added.
The woman nodded her head before taking out a device from her pocket.

Back to the mansion,
Rex has just finished solidifying his Lunar Light element for reaching the sixth rank realm and also matching it with Amanir, it should take a month or so for an Awakened to do what he did but Rex needs nothing but hours of time.
It's already night when he opens his eyes and ends his meditation.
The next step is to try and make the Lunar Dust Illusions and perfected them. But Rex decided to check on the others first, especially Adhara who should be getting ready for the fight tomorrow. Exiting the throne room, Rex was greeted by the empty and dark hallway.
Everyone seems to be in their room as they should for training.
'Oh, I forgot to tell Edward to pick up Delta. She should be okay right now, and also I need to think of a way to gain more souls for Ryze. The succubus' souls are not enough to overpower Zaddrass, as expected'
While thinking in his head, Rex walks along the hallway intending to check Adhara first.
But just as he was about to head to the master bedroom, his ears perked up hearing a muffled voice. It's not that loud, in fact, very light but he nevertheless caught the sound. Upon following the sound, he replaces himself in front of his parent's room.
Rex can't help but frown before he stretches his hand and knocks on the door a couple of times.
After knocking on the door lightly, he then twists the handle of the door before peeking inside. How his eyes widen in surprise seeing that Robert is hugging Mrs. Greene that seems to be sweating profusely in her sleep.
Upon hearing the door open, Robert glances at the door and replaces Rex standing there.
"What's wrong with her...?"
"I don't know but she's acting weird lately and quite clingy, and just now she suddenly started talking in her sleep saying something but I didn't quite hear what she said. Maybe I'm old but I heard her saying something that rhymes with Wolf maybe?"
Despite Robert saying it trying to decipher what he heard, Rex immediately knows what she said.
It's like a wave of cold air that brushes his body as he saw Mrs. Greene's body shaking and sweating profusely, she's even whimpering with a frown on his face. Nightmare, it's definitely a nightmare. And seeing this, Rex can't help but clenched his fists.
While Robert is trying to wake Mrs. Greene up, he shifted his eyes back to Rex.
But Robert was caught in surprise when he saw Rex's hands are bleeding, "Are you hurt...? Why are your hands bleeding?", he asks in concern seeing the blood dripping down to the carpet.
Realizing this, Rex hides his hands on his back before he smiles, "It's nothing..."
Under Robert's confused gaze, Rex bids him goodnight before exiting the room once again. In front of the room, Rex looks at the door blankly before his expression turns grim.
