Rex is sitting on the ground leaning on an abandoned building's wall, he's looking at two tombs in front of him that can hardly be seen as a tomb. One such reason is that the tombs have many cracks on them from the absence of someone maintaining them.
Albeit hard to read, there are two names engraved on the tombstones.
Nabila Silvy Bidalah, and Jindra Morton Silverstar.
Both of the names are engraved deeply in Rex's mind never to be forgotten, they are the names of his birth parents that brought him into this world. The couple that raised him with love and warmth that no one has ever been able to replicate.
Rex is sitting silently leaning on the wall with a bottle of alcohol on his side.
The content of the bottle of alcohol has already been halved, his face is a little bit rosy feeling a little bit blurry. In his hand, there is a necklace that is hanging by his index and middle fingers. It's the only thing that has the memory of Rex's real parents.
Upon becoming a Werewolf, he has never used it ever again feeling ashamed.
For what he has turned into, what he has become is the exact monster that killed his parents. Ever since that fateful night, he has never worn the necklace again fearing that his parents will be disturbed up there watching over him above the sky.
Everything around the place is quiet without any sound matching Rex's silence.
Where he is right now is his birth city that has already turned into ruins, everything here has already been destroyed and abandoned. Happiness street becomes an irony, this place is the place where the Werewolves first awakened from their slumber.
This is where all of the Werewolves appeared during the Supernatural Emergence.
Dupok city has been turned into a ghost city without any human being living here, only the occasional mutated animals went past this place but soon runs away upon seeing Rex. For them, his aura alone gives off the same feeling as death.
None of the mutated animals dares to venture near him, only the sounds of their whimpers can be heard.
Just on the ground around Rex is a circle made of runes that he bought from the system, every rune engraved on the ground around him at least cost 20,000 Gold. Numerous chains also gripped every part of his limbs including his neck.
From a glance, these chains are different than the ones that Rex bought for Evelyn and Gistella.
Chains of Anti-Werewolf are made of silver, there's a triangle head at the end of the chains that are used to stab the target limbs and suppress their power if their mind is not stable.
The ones that restrained Rex on the other hand are almost like they're made of purple glass.
Every part of the chains is sizzling with purple energy, it's mysterious ancient energy called Orphic Energy. It has the ability that can suppress the bloodline of any living being robbing them of their innate prowess.
These chains are called Chains of Sanctifying Downfall, it cost him a whopping 500,000 Gold that triumphs over anything that he has ever bought in the system's shop. A chain that can even restrain any beings that has ninth rank power.
It's quite a powerful tool but there's a massive drawback to using it.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtChains of Sanctifying Downfall can restrain anything that has a ninth rank power, but to activate it one must chain every limb of the target they're trying to restrain. Basically, if the chains are not bounded to all of the target's limbs then the chains won't be activated.
Using these chains to capture a ninth rank Supernatural for example will be useless.
There's no way in hell that a Supernatural of that caliber will let themselves be chained without a fight, so these chains can only be used if the said Supernatural has already been captured or beaten first.
But in Rex's condition, the chains are the absolute perfect one for him.
From the system's description, the chains are also very painful when activated. Even Rex needs to buy an additional item that will help him survive the chain activation. It's designed to chain a ninth-rank being, but Rex is not one.
Rex only bought this because during his berserk state he got the King Mark.
King Mark is the sign of the absolute pinnacle of the Werewolf race, and everyone that has been accepted by a full moon and gains King Mark will most likely have a ninth rank power. So he uses this Chain of Sanctifying Downfall in case during his berserk he can activate the King Mark unconsciously.
In Rex's other hand is a white stone, he will use this white stone to stop the chain power.
After looking at the white stone for a brief moment, Rex tossed the white stone outside of the circle of runes before grabbing the bottle of alcohol and sighing. He looks at the dark night sky thinking back about his parents, 'Mother, Father... I have a confession to make'
In a place far away from Dupok City,
Adhara just got teleported into a bustling city with the night street filled with the laughter of people, she looks around before she nodded her head realizing that this is indeed Eqosa City.
She then turns around to look at the others,
There are Evelyn, Gistella, and Edward on her back that also got teleported here.
While looking at her hands that are trembling for some reason, Evelyn looks up to look at Adhara with clear nervousness and concern plastered on her face, "I- Is this normal?"
"I've also felt that before but you'll get used to it, you're fine...", Adhara replied.
It's still night and tomorrow will be the night of the full moon, the Wolf Moon. The air is already filled with the full moon energy that affects every Werewolf, Evelyn and Gistella are the clear depictions of that as their entire body is trembling uncontrollably.
For them, this is the first time they feel something like this.
Although they are already turned into Werewolf, this is still their first ever full moon and also their birth moon. This day will also be the first time they will ever transform into their Werewolf forms.
It's been said that the birth moon of a Werewolf will affect them the most.
Without a doubt, they both will turn into their Werewolf form. Evelyn is the one bothered the most judging from her pale expression, the thought of turning into a Werewolf still troubles her.
Her fiery hair that is tied into a ponytail is not helping, her expression becomes clearly seen.
Looking at Evelyn that is still nervous about the impending transformation from the Wolf Moon, Adhara shifted her eyes to Edward on the side who is wearing silver armor from head to toe.
He will be the one that is tasked to take care of Evelyn and Gistella.
Adhara although she looks calm from the outside, the Wolf Moon energy still affects her making the people of Eqosa City becomes even more appealing. It's like there's a force that wanted her to just turn into her Werewolf form and started hunting each one of them.
It's definitely because of the Wolf Moon, but she can restrain herself more being a High Werewolf.
"From what Rex said, there are 19 targets that Evelyn and Gistella will try to hunt and they are all Undead with a black sheep mark engraved on them. So make sure they don't hunt humans"
Before parting ways, Rex told her everything she needs to know to handle the situation.
Hearing this, Edward nodded his head. He looks to be stuffed with the silver armor that he was wearing, but it's necessary since Gistella is there. Just like what Rex has anticipated after devouring the Ancient Vampire Core she breakthrough into the seventh rank realm.
She can also use the Scale of Fiend, which is a very powerful skill in Gistella's arsenal.
Without the protection of the silver armor that he's wearing, Edward will not be a match against Gistella in her Werewolf form and also added with Evelyn if something went wrong that causes them both to go absolutely berserk.
This at least will add an extra layer of protection for Edward.
Glancing to Evelyn who is shaking where she stood and Gistella who is looking down on the ground silently, Adhara then said, "Leave the city right now, It's very hard for them to control the new sensation they're feeling. Bring them out of Eqosa City as soon as possible"
"Evelyn should know where the secret passage is", she added.
Edward doesn't reply and just nodded his head, he immediately signals for Evelyn and Gistella to follow him as the three of them walk away leaving Adhara.
While looking at them walking away, Adhara is a bit concerned with them.
But if she can go through her first transformation, then Evelyn and Gistella should also be able to go through it without any major problems. With a sigh, Adhara then crushed a crystal before she got teleported away again.
A couple of hours after that,
There is a man standing across the street looking at the mansion from the darkness of the night, he's wearing a black jacket that makes him look like the lord of the Darkness. A sizzling dark aura can be seen around this man's body.
Even though his body can technically be seen, the black spear in his hand cannot.
Covering the black spear with dark mana and spirit energy, this black spear becomes literally invisible. Some of the people walking on the street look at the man with a hint of nervousness, which made many of them hasten their pace upon walking past this man.
Because of their hasten pace, some of them crashed into the black spear.
The people that bumped into the black spear were confused as to what they just hit, their reaction shows that they really can't see the black spear, or even their senses are manipulated by this man to not be able to see the spear.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt's hard to say but the bottom line is that the black spear is invisible to the passerby.
Raising his gaze, the man then looks at the window on the second floor where a woman seems to be on her phone oblivious to the dark man watching over her across the street. There's a hint of restraining shown on the man's face.
Just like when someone is refraining to do something but the urge is very powerful.
But when the man is holding down the urge within him, he looks to the side feeling a familiar aura approaching him, "Kyran, what are you doing here? You can't be that affected by it"
The man standing by the street turns out to be Kyran.
Adhara finds that Kyran is not in the mansion and she instinctively knows where he will be, and just like she has predicted she finds Kyran here in front of the Platchi Family's mansion. He's looking at Duncan's wife that can be seen on the second floor.
She had the black sheep mark so she's marked to be hunted during the Wolf Moon.
"Why are you here? You don't have to babysit me, I'm fine", Kyran replied giving Adhara a cold glance, he doesn't seem to want to be disturbed by anyone right now.
Hearing this, Adhara sighs, "You know that Rex told us to be sensible right?"
"I know what he said, but he also said that it's preferable not to kill her. So I can still kill her if I really wanted to", Kyran replied turning back his gaze to Duncan's wife. The terrifying part about Kyran is that if he really wanted to, he can literally be inside the same room as Duncan's wife looking at her without even her realizing it.
Kyran's affinity to the Dark Element is something only a handful possesses, it's a very rare affinity.
With his ability to blend in the darkness and even manipulate the senses of others that have a gap in power with him, Duncan's wife who should not be stronger than a fifth rank Awakened will not be able to even see Kyran if he doesn't want her to see him.
Since Adhara is a dual Elementalist, Kyran can't do that to Adhara but he might if he tried.
Adhara shakes her head feeling that Kyran is too affected by the Wolf Moon, "You clearly know that the Platchi Family is operating the business we inherit from the Atkins Family right? You talked to them a couple of days ago"
"I'm just playing, I won't kill her. I know the repercussion", Kyran replied shortly.
Hearing this, Adhara glanced at Kyran's emotional aura and finds that he was telling the truth. It seems he really will not kill Duncan's wife, "Then why are you here if you're not affected?"
"It's been a while you know...", Kyran mutters.
With a devious grin blooming on his face, Kyran then glanced at Adhara slowly. The expression he wore made Adhara startled a bit, "Killing... I'm aching for it. The feeling of blood in my hands, their frightened look, and even their screams are like music. My body needs that"
Kyran then shrugs his shoulders, "But I'm sure Rex will bring us to the Supernatural territory once again, he took all the fun back in our journey to the Vampire territory. It's not fair"
After saying that, Kyra glanced back at Duncan's wife that is still by the window.
His eyes glisten fiercely before he mutters, "So you don't need to babysit me, I'm just here to immerse myself in my imagination. I'm just going to picture how she will scream when I cut her limbs, that is all..."
Upon hearing the unexpected answer, Adhara feels a chill run down her spine.
'Yep... the Wolf Moon is getting the better of him, but then again he's also a Dark Elementalist. As long as he didn't actually kill her, it's fine I guess...', she thought before disappearing from the place.
