The Invincible Full-Moon System

Chapter 1019 Near-berserk State

Due to the incident that happened because of Olfa, the guards on the walls were in dismay.

All of them were feeling relieved as nothing bad happened.

But it was around the same time that their attention was pulled to the castle at the heart of the kingdom. A blast happened, and it tore a hole in the upper portion of the castle before three figures emerged and fell down to the ground.

It wasn't seen only by them either, the other Dark Elves also witnessed this incident.

Judging from the rampaging energies, there seemed to be a fight.

While the Dark Elves from the ancient era remained unperturbed by the spectacle of Evelyn falling from a high altitude, and being attacked by Bevryth, the Dark Elves on the wall who were mostly from the new era felt a constriction in their throats.

Upon realization, all of their eyes bulged in utter horror at what they were seeing.

Earlier, they had dodged a bullet by a hair's length.

However, it seemed they were destined to offend Lord Rex, seeing Evelyn was attacked.

"W- We must tell General Theodas!"

"No, by King Jorik's decree, we will put our bodies to protect the Luna!"

Determined to help Evelyn, the Dark Elf guards readied themselves to jump down.

But in that very second, a supersonic wave reverberated, grating their eardrums and potent enough the compel them to abruptly halt, instinctively shielding their ears. It was deafening, rendering them motionless, caught off guard by the overwhelming noise.

One of the stronger guards glanced out to the horizon with an evident frown on his face.

Despite the pain, his vision was focused enough to see the devastation.

On the very far horizon and closing in with lightning speed, the Dark Elf guard witnessed the forest split into two. Jutting and robust trees were spread to two sides, creating a clear path of flattened and destroyed nature.

"What in the world...?" the Dark Elf guard uttered in shock.

Another also noticed this and clenched his sword tightly, "I- Is it an attack? From who?!"

None of them has ever seen something like this before.

It was akin to an invisible object to the naked eye, penetrating the forest like a fleeting arrow.

Each one of them felt a chill running down his spine, the kind of chill that would only be present at the sight of death. It only takes a couple of seconds for this invisible object to travel the dozens of miles distance between it and the castle walls.

The Dark Elf guards halt their breaths when the devastation reaches the end of the forest.

Swoosh!

A piercing sound of wind blasted their ears before it was silent for a fraction of a second.

However, it was only the calm before the storm.

Crash!!

Following that silence was the entire city walls trembling violently, akin to being at the center of an earthquake. It was so powerful that the entire Dark Elf guards stumbled and fell to the floor, reaching for anything they could to not fall.

It lasted for a few seconds before it returned to normal again.

"What in the world hit us?!"

"I don't know, it was invisible or too fast for us to see!"

Despite the oddity of the situation, the Dark Elf guard quickly gets back to their feet.

Trained to face numerous dangers, they were quick to recover.

Observing the surroundings, one Dark Elf guard stood up and looked down at the walls. He then let out a haunting gasp before he quickly called for the others, pointing at the body of the walls in a panic.

When the Dark Elf guards gathered to look, they all also had the same reaction.

All of their mouths were agape in shock.

Gazing downward, the Dark Elf guards beheld the utter devastation of the city's protective barrier, now reduced to shattered fragments of energy. Additionally, the once-imposing wall lay torn, a conspicuous breach marking the entry point where the unseen force effortlessly penetrated their defenses.

Since the barrier is as strong as a ninth-rank realm, the entity must be at least that strong.

Meanwhile, near the center of the city.

It happened faster than a fraction of a second.

All of the onlookers were initially stunned by the unexpected conflict coming from the castle.

However, they were then abruptly thrust aside by a raging gust of wind, forcefully propelling them away from the scene as if they were nothing. Not only them, but the gust of wind also lays waste to the entire structures it comes in contact with.

Only then that the perpetrator of all of this become visible, it was Flunra.

Sensing that Evelyn was attacked, he instantly bolted here.

Flunra didn't expect that he would need to be worried about Evelyn going to the Dark Elves, but he reacted quickly and didn't hesitate to use Isobel the Void Walker's power. Under the influence, he was moving faster than anyone in the First Breath.

It took him mere minutes to reach the Dark Elf Kingdom, even though he was quite far.

He feared that Evelyn might get hurt or even killed.

Losing her at this crucial moment would be devastating, the impact would be too much.

Rex's mind would take a solid hit if that happened.

Due to that, he came rushing as fast as he could with fuming anger boiling his bloodstream.

Back to the present.

"Don't kill her, Flunra..." Evelyn mused lightly.

Just earlier when the fight started, she keenly perceived Flunra's rapid approach, allowing her to intervene swiftly and prevent him from killing Bevryth. Despite Bevryth's offense, Evelyn doesn't want her to die yet.

It would be unfortunate if Bevryth died before she could use her.

Seeing Flunra's claws nearing her neck, Bevryth gulped harshly.

Her throat felt dry as she could feel the immense killing intent shot from Flunra's eyes, and also the wrath through his rough breaths, brushing against her face. Even the thought of moving her finger made her nervous.

'W- Who is he? Unlike Evelyn, this one is very—very dangerous' Bevryth thought fearfully.

Compared to Evelyn, the air around Flunra was sharp and lethal.

Not to mention that his aura could match hers, who was at the peak of the ninth-rank realm.

Looking at Flunra, who was in his Werewolf form already, not responding to her words made Evelyn raise her hand, signaling to Bevryth to not do anything. She was conveying through her eyes that it would be unwise to move, even a little bit.

But even then, it was obvious that Bevryth was too nervous to not move.

She wanted to get out of this position right now.

"Flunra, listen to me," Evelyn called out, slowly approaching him from the back. "I know what she did is wrong, but killing her would be a waste. Calm down, I will deal with this, you don't have to go any further"

Despite her plea, Flunra was still breathing heavily, glaring at Bevryth like death's emissary.

Gently, Evelyn holds Flunra's shoulder, trying to calm him down.

In the midst of preparing to envelop his frenzied form with her Luna energy to appease his anger, the assassins, alerted to Bevryth's situation, swiftly descended through the gaping breach in the castle.

"Move! Cover for her!"

Fifteen assassins poured out and went straight to Flunra.

Upon seeing Flunra's form, they unsheathed their weapons again in an instant.

Since it was not Evelyn and sensing the dangerous aura that Flunra emitted, all assassins didn't waste time to draw their weapons. Each of them chanted and used their dark nature energy to coat their weapons.

Evelyn looked at them and waved her hand in panic, "Stop! Don't come near!"

Despite her warning, it was already too late.

Sensing the killing intent directed at him, Flunra's aura expanded to a terrifying degree.

His Herald Mark was activated, surging his power to new heights.

Swoosh!

Instead of backing away, the fifteen assassins launched their assaults from all sides, putting more effort into their attacks with high vigilance. Time slowed down as Bevryth saw that the assassins surrounded them from all sides.

All of them poised a strike at Flunra's vital points.

Following that very second, she tilted down with her eyes widened.

Splash!

Bevryth didn't even see what happened but reacted when the assassins' bodies exploded.

All of them turned into pools of blood airborne, their bodies were turned into meatpaste, only leaving behind their weapons, clanging against the ground as if in a macabre symphony. She tilted her face down before blood drenched her entire body, halting her breath momentarily.

'N- Nothing... I couldn't see his movement at all!' Bevryth explained inside her head.

Shockingly enough, the difference in power between them was vast.

It was at that point, her body started to tremble visibly.

Even though she was way stronger than the assassins who were mainly around the eighth-rank realm as a family head, she wasn't able to kill them all in less than one second. It was unachievable for her.

But Flunra, on the other hand, did that without breaking a sweat.

An evident indicator that he was way stronger than her.

Realizing the power that Flunra possesses, fear starts to creep inside her mind.

Evelyn discerned this change as the two made subtle eye contact, Flunra still towering over her. At that moment, Evelyn shook her head lightly, signaling to Bevryth that despite her new and sensible fear, she shouldn't move from her spot.

For the first time, Flunra was in a near-berserk state.

She had only realized it now, the look in his eyes was absent from his usual light.

However, pressured by fear, Bevryth turned around and tried to flee.

Roar!!

Instantaneously, Flunra grabbed her head and slammed her into the ground, planting her face into the cobblestone. He kept slamming her face to the ground repeatedly, rendering Bevryth helpless under his grip.

Blood splattered with each slam, portraying an absolutely gory scenery.

"Do you think!"

Crash!

"You can hurt!"

Crash!

"The LUNA?!!"

Krrkk!

Not stopping at that, Flunra threw her into the air before he jumped skywards.

Cloaking his claws with moonlight energy, he kicked the air behind him and propelled himself to Bevryth, piercing her through with his claws. Following the momentum, both crashed back into the castle and reached the dining hall where the others were still fighting.

Immediately, the fight stopped at their entrance.

Korvak who was on the verge of beating King Jorik separated at the crashing sound.

Glancing to the side, he found two figures covered in dust.

When the dust receded, the two figures became clear to the onlookers.

Flunra slowly stood up and boasted his towering and menacing appearance before raising Bevryth with his claws inside her chest. Blood dripped down to the ground as Bevryth did everything she could to break free.

But it was futile, she couldn't budge Flunra's claws or arms.

Giving a quick glance at the people inside the room, he quickly pulled his claws out.

In the moment Bevryth's body falls down in slow motion, he sends another slash that hits her torso squarely, sending her crashing away to the other side of the room. Silence enveloped the entire place as they witnessed what Flunra did.

Bevryth was planted into the walls, and her expression darkens.

Slowly, her body slid down to the ground, leaving a gruesome trail of blood on the wall.

Flunra gave her no chance to retaliate.

He didn't even give her time to cast a single spell before getting knocked out.

Realizing who it was, King Jorik who was battered and bruised started laughing maniacally, plastering concern to Korvak's face. "I told you... Touch the Luna and you'll pay the price. Do you really think only the Alpha is the concern? If so, then you're sorely mistaken"

"Meet Flunra, the right-hand man. But for you, he's an executioner" He added mockingly.

Upon hearing this, Korvak gritted his teeth.

He turned to look at Flunra as his heart began to thump even faster.

"Damn it!" Korvak cursed, inspecting Flunra up and down in worry. "It's not even five minutes, and he managed to reach here already? Just who in the dark nature's name is he? How can he react so fast?!"
