The Invincible Full-Moon System
Chapter 551 Suspense Of The Trembling Hands

"No, I'm the one that destroyed the Vampire Stronghold. Not Sebrof..."

Rex just got back from the Vampire Stronghold to prove his innocence to Lady Giana, he didn't expect anything when he got back to the mansion. In fact, he's even deliberating on what he was going to do with Seth

It's the only thing in mind as he knows what he's going to do with Flunra.

Unlike Gistella whom he at least treated like a living being, the case was not going to be the same for Flunra. Rex needs to make preparations for Flunra but he already had a thought in mind, with the system's help it's going to be easy.

But who would've known that as soon as he got back, he received such shocking news.

"Where is the article, let me see it!"

"Hold on, I'll get Tandu's phone again. It's on the UWO official website"

After saying that Edward immediately ran outside to grab Tandu's phone while Rex paced around the room in thought, he even unconsciously dropped Seth on the ground because of this sudden news.

The only ones that should know about the Vampire Stronghold are the ones present earlier.

No one from Rex's side would've betrayed him, it went against their natural instinct to do that.

Werewolves betraying their Alphas are very unlikely, it's very minuscule and even a person without an umbrella getting wet from the rain has a higher chance of happening. The natural instinct is the code they go by and is impossible to fight against.

Knowing that Rex's side immediately gets filtered from the perpetrators.

But that only leaves Lady Giana that is the one that Rex is trying to convince, she looks suspicious but her telling his secret to Sebrof just after what they went through is also unlikely. Rex wanted to believe that but he didn't replace any other alternatives than Lady Giana telling Sebrof.

The front door was opened again as Edward strode inside with a phone in his hand.

Rex grabs the phone and sat on the sofa while looking at the screen intently, his eyes scanned through the series of words trying to figure out what exactly happened. It's his biggest secret, nobody should know about this.

It was only because of the Demons that he was forced to open up to Lady Giana.

Even the temptation of killing her right there is still lingering as this is the biggest secret that he kept close to himself, if exposed then there's no hope of him being in the human territory again. Nobody can be trusted to keep this secret.

Only the ones that he has control over, such as the Silverstar Pack can know about this.

Despite that was his hope in continuing his existence until the Supernatural has been exterminated, the article he's reading right now shows that whoever is behind this definitely knows about his secret.

Rex didn't need to think much for him to reach this conclusion.

If the one behind this knows he destroyed the Vampire Stronghold then this person should know of his Werewolf form, there's no otherwise except for that fact as Rex is almost always in his Werewolf form during his attack on the Vampire Stronghold.

'But this is just the surface... worst case scenario there are multiple people behind this'

Upon realizing that he's in the middle of a dark room with prying eyes in the shadows looking at him, Rex leans back on the sofa knowing that he's in the hot seat right now. Everything can turn in a blink of an eye.

Looking at Rex's dire expression, Edward's heart also beats faster as he also realized the situation.

"They know about you being a Werewolf, and we have no idea how they manage to do that. I don't like this, Rex. We need to fight back or we'll definitely hanged, it's going to be a bloodbath if they decided to move", Edward said from the side.

Without even answering, Rex clasps his hands together while looking down at the table.

Rex has kept his secret for quite some time now without any hiccups at all, he managed to deal with the full moon and even other curious people out of his ultimate secret. Only now does he encounter such a dire problem.

No matter how much he tries to think, he shouldn't leave that much trace.

"We still have time..."

"Time? What makes you be so sure that they're not going to knock any minute now?"

Glancing at Edward that is clearly thinking logically, Rex looks away again before he sighs.

"If they really wanted to take me down then the mansion should be surrounded right now, but they didn't. So we got time right now, time to think of our next move and also make a backup plan if somehow we're going to be wanted"

"Why would they hesitate if they knew you're a Supernatural?"

"One of the reasons is because I'm now an entity that can't be taken lightly, I've received my King Mark and reached the ninth-rank realm. I guess that's what makes them hesitate, they don't want to provoke me too much"

Upon hearing this Edward stood up from the sofa in utter shock.

It took him more than a minute to process what Rex just said earlier, the news lit up a bomb inside his brain that rattled his entire mind, "Y-You reached the ninth-rank realm...?!", he exclaimed, hissing cold air.

For a piece of news that big, it's a miracle that Edward didn't die from shock.

Edward realized now he was sitting beside an entity that can be called a pillar of humanity and also Supernaturals, he was now a figure that is at the peak of absolute power. Nothing can faze ninth-rank realm beings except other ninth-rank.

Clearing his throat, he then sat back down, "I see... now everything made sense. I should've known"

Both of them sat beside each other with a pondering look as they thought of the situation in silence, there are no words that came out of their mouths for a couple of minutes. It just shows how seriously they take this problem that hits them like a charging train.

After a moment, Edward finally exhales roughly before standing up.

"For now, I'm going to take Zelene and my Uncle here first. They might be kidnapped for real this time..."

With that Edward walked past Rex heading towards the front door.

But Rex suddenly grabbed his arm stopping him in his tracks, he looks back with a darkened expression, "Don't try and stop me now, their safety is threatened by this. I'm just going to bring them here so I know that they're safe"

"It's not that...", Rex shakes his head and lets go of Edward's arm.

Standing up himself while still looking at Edward, he then added, "Go ahead and bring your family here, but I want you to replace a supplier that can give me a good amount of Elemental Stones. I want it to be discreet, nobody can know about it"

"Also, pay a visit to the Emham Forest. I think we may need it in the future..."

Edward nodded his head firmly as a backup plan, a plan to retreat is always essential in any scenario. One can't always be confident in the plan, arrogance has taken many lives and he knows it very well.

After Edward left to do his tasks, Rex looks down once again in thought.

Now that nobody is around, he looks down at his hands and replaces them trembling slightly.

'Am I really scared...?', Rex thought replaceing that his heart beating faster, the rapid beating is like a rhythmic depiction of the emotion called fear. In addition to his trembling hands, there are not many excuses for this kind of natural reaction.

The thought of leaving the human territory still troubles him, it's something that he didn't want.

Clenching both of his hands into fists, Rex calms his breathing as crumbling in pressure will not do him any good. It's a lie if the pressure of not knowing how the other side knows of his secret is not much, Rex can feel the pressure in his bones.

"Sebrof... just who the hell told you about that"

But as he mutters that inwardly, Rex's ears picked up another heartbeat that doesn't belong to him.

With the scent that follows this heartbeat, Rex widened his eyes realizing who this scent belongs. Looking up to the second floor, he can sense a person that seems to be hearing his conversation with Edward from before.

'Shit! I got careless!', Rex exclaimed inside his head, cursing for his lack of awareness.

It's not that he can't sense the person on the second floor that seems to be eavesdropping, but it was because his mind is occupied by the article published by the UWO before that makes him lose focus.

Rex stands up and slowly ascends the stairs, praying that for once his senses are wrong.

Upon reaching halfway down the stairs it seems this person heard him coming up, and hurriedly went back into the room. Stepping on the last staircase, Rex can only see the door closing before his heart immediately ache.

"Mom..."

Since the room should be his parents' room, there are only two people that fall into the criteria.

The maids and butlers are not working yet this early in the morning, they are still on their side of the mansion. It's definitely Mrs. Greene, 'I hope she didn't hear everything, I don't want her to know. She wouldn't be able to handle it...'

But just as he said that Rex suddenly grabbed his throbbing head.

It was quite painful as he was forced to knit his eyebrows together in pain.

<5% of the user's soul has been extracted!>

Rex opens his eyes slowly despite the pain before he saw the notification from the system, this is going to keep happening until he finished the Super Berserk Quest. It's easy to finish it, but he doesn't want to.

At least not yet, there are things he wanted Ruston to experience first.

Shaking his head a couple of times, Rex then descend back down and went to the back garden while still holding his head. Ryze is still hurt and he needs to give the red souls he amassed to him first before anything else.

Meanwhile, on the other side of Ratmawati City.

"Woaah... what is this place?"

Kyran looks up to the sky and feels the sun is right above his head, but there's a barrier surrounding the place he's in right now that made looking directly at the sun doesn't burn his eyes. It even feels cool right here like being beside a beach shore.

Similar to his reaction, Evelyn and Adharaare also in awe.

After bringing Lady Giana and the injured Awakened to the nearest city, they use the teleportation formation to the coordinate stated by Lady Giana herself. They then replace themselves in this magical place.

Walking to the edge of the grassland, Kyran looks down before his eyes widened.

Turns out they are currently on some sort of a floating island above Ratmawati City, it's not ridiculously big but certainly feels magical. A temple is built on this floating island that completely gave off a holy feeling.

Even the mana here is more than one hundred times denser than below.

But the dense mana here only consists of water mana and lightning mana, both elemental mana that can't be utilized at all by Adhara and the others as they are not Lightning Elementalist. Evelyn is the first one that snaps out of her daze.

"If I'm not mistaken, this should be the Sky Temple", she mutters softly.

Hearing this, Lady Giana who is on their side smile lightly, "Yes, this is the Sky Temple. A place that is specifically made for me, and I'm the guardian of this place. Two artifacts and one high-rank complex formation kept this place running at all times"

"Contagion Wishing Drop supplies the water mana, Lightning Inscription Saga supplies the lightning mana, and 36 rune combination formation kept this island floating"

The others nodded their heads repeatedly as they are still in awe.

After checking the place for a moment, a couple of people clad in white robes came out of the temple before they all bowed lightly toward Lady Giana. They didn't mutter any words and immediately brings the injured Awakened inside the temple.

With nothing but energy, they brought the injured Awakened inside the temple.

Despite having their injuries sustained from the elixir given by Rex and also a first action in the city they were in before, the injured Awakened still need healing. It seems there's something that can help them heal faster.

"I'd love to stick around, but I believe we should go", Adhara suddenly said.

Hearing this Lady Giana nodded her head as they probably need to be with Rex, "Okay, I'll send you back down. People down there can help you get back to sector 2", she replied with a nod of her head.

Although Lady Giana is only guessing, she was actually spot on.

Kyran, Adhara, and Evelyn can feel the rampaging feeling that Rex is feeling right now, they are linked together so they can somewhat feel a powerful spike in emotion that happened to Rex.

Because of that, they need to get back and check on Rex.

When Lady Giana was about to prepare to teleport them down to the ground, Evelyn suddenly approaches her from the side and signals to talk a bit. Both of them walk a little bit further away from Adhara and Kyran.

Not one word is spoken but there's a lingering tension around them.

"If Rex really managed to destroy the Vampire Stronghold, are you going to accept the deal?"

Lady Giana shifted her crystal eyes to look at Evelyn, she kept silent for a good couple of seconds before she finally replied, "I don't know, that doesn't undo the fact that he's a Werewolf... You are also a Werewolf"

Upon hearing this, Evelyn can't help but frown as it's going to be bad if Lady Giana is like this.

But when Evelyn was about to say something, Lady Giana added, "But since he saved me from the Werewolves and also destroy the Vampire Stronghold, I can keep silent. At least for now..."

With that, Evelyn kept eye contact for a couple of seconds longer before nodding her head.

Despite Lady Giana doesn't seem to be convinced fully, Evelyn can't actually force her to be convinced so she's going to leave it at that. She went back to Adhara and Kyran before the three of them look at Lady Giana.

Lifting her slender hand, Lady Giana activates the island energy.

Translucent energy covers the three of them before they disappeared with a flick of her fingers.

Just when they were about to get teleported, Adhara frowned when her eyes caught something. It's only a brief second so she can't make sense of what she just saw before she got teleported away.

After teleporting the three of them, Lady Giana sighs before she walks to the edge of the island.

Lady Giana can feel the grass dancing and brushing against her ankle while looking down to Ratmawati City from above, there's no expression on her face. Nobody can tell what she's thinking right now.

Exhaling softly, she then turns around and flew inside the temple.
