The Invincible Full-Moon System

Chapter 958 Clumsy But Misleading Pet

Just when the two of them left, Ryze quickly voiced out his concern.

"I don't like being in this place. Did you hear what the Executor said, almost casually, just after you left? He's up to something, and being here will only make him happy" He said, visible concern etched across his face.

Rex nodded, he also heard what the Executor uttered under his breath earlier.

He also hinted that his plan must involve causing mental harm.

Obviously, the Executor was spicing up the game by giving Rex hints that he would do something. Maybe it was for the sake of his own amusement or pure arrogance that he decided to play mind games.

Feeling uneasy in this place is inevitable, this is the heart of the enemy's territory.

Pausing for a second, he placed both of his hands on the table and made eye contact with Ryze who was vividly panicking, his legs were trembling. "I know that you are still a kid, and the situation might be too much for you. But to be with me, this is what you will be dealing with daily, and don't forget that you are now a Heavenly Dragonman. We have our misunderstanding. Not too long ago, we were close, and now... I want you closer"

"You need to grow up fast. But if you can't handle it, then say it, and I'll send you back"

Upon hearing this, Ryze's body halted for a brief moment.

Ryze peered into Rex's eyes and found that he wasn't joking about what he said.

Due to the pressure of being near so many powerful individuals, Ryze was dazed and afraid, but he now remembered that he wanted to prove himself to Rex. So he quickly shook his head, gripping his fists tightly, "No... I'm sorry, I can handle this"

"Good. Your past is not easy, take pride in it, and be better" Rex advised, nodding firmly.

Soon enough, a figure stepped inside.

It was the Demoness from earlier, and she brought in a couple of outfits for the two of them.

"Sir Edward told me to give this to you, this will be your outfits for the battle," She said softly, putting them gently on the table. "Also, is there a need for weapons? If so, I will go and bring it to you right away"

Rex pondered for a second, he doesn't have a weapon right now.

The Amuerus Katana was still in pieces from the fight against the Executor, and the Silver Eye remained stuck at Demon Lord Kirgil. Even if he were to acquire it, the Silver Eye would likely be significantly weakened from banishing multiple Demon Lords.

It's not a stretch to say that it would shatter from another swing.

"Give me a sword of any kind" Rex requested before he turned to look at Ryze.

Not even thinking much, Ryze also quickly added, "A two-handed axe for me, I'd like that"

"Please wait for me to come back, I'll bring them right away" Instantly, the Demoness nodded before she left to bring the weapons both of them requested in a hurry. It shouldn't take long for her to get what they wanted.

Meanwhile, Rex raised an eyebrow, "A two-handed battle axe? What makes you pick that?"

"During the fight with the Rastrikan Demons, I figured an axe compliments me" He replied.

Listening to this, Rex remembered the sight of Ryze fighting briefly.

Given the destructive power of Zaddrass' fire dwelling inside of him, the most suitable weapons for Ryze would be those wielded with two hands. A war hammer or an axe would be ideal, but the axe offers a more concentrated force due to its sharp edge.

So it made sense that Ryze would choose an axe to increase his penetration power.

A moment later.

"I'm going to stretch, Jasira told me to always do that before a fight" Ryze suddenly said.

On the side, Rex was struggling to wear the chainmail and chainmail leggings. He waved his hand, gesturing to Ryze that he could go as Jasira was probably his mentor or something when he was still in Ratmawati City.

Not long after Ryze left, the Demoness came back and halted instantly.

She dropped the sword and rushed over to Rex.

"Here, let me help. I apologize for the late introduction, but I am your personal assistant while you are here, so leave this to me" the Demoness said as she reached out her hand to help Rex wear the chainmail.

Rex quickly stepped to the side, "Don't, I got this"

Upon hearing this, the Demoness still stubbornly persisted, "Please, let me help you"

"No, I said I got this. Didn't you hear what I said?" Rex rebutted with a stern tone, looking at the Demoness warningly. However, following that, the Demoness quickly prostrate herself to the ground, her body visibly shaking.

This left Rex at a loss for words, he didn't expect her to be like this.

Evidently sobbing while still prostrating on the ground, the Demoness pleaded, "Please, you are a special guest here. I am bound to assist you. If you keep on rejecting me, then I'm going to be in trouble. So, please... have mercy"

At the sight of this, Rex could only sigh and shake his head.

I'll just let her help me, she's the Executor's pet, so she must be forced to do this.

"Fine, quickly help me. It's about time the army will depart" Rex said and faced the other way.

Her expression beams with delight, mirroring the glee of a child who's just been given candy. She quickly stood up with evident enthusiasm, wiping her tears away in order to help Rex wear the chainmail.

But due to her excitement, she tripped and fell, landing face-first.

Brak!

Rex's face turned, surprised to find the Demoness was on the ground again, "Are you okay?"

"I- I'm alright" the Demoness raised her face with a wry smile, she was embarrassed that she showed the clumsy side of herself in front of Rex. Even her forehead was red from slamming against the hard ground.

After wearing the outfit, Rex stood in front of the body-sized mirror.

He is now draped in form-fitting black reinforced armor with a purple shade of inner linings from top to bottom, with pauldrons that were shaped like a skull. The Demoness said that this armor is equivalent to a peak seventh-rank, and is used only by the higher-rank members.

Of course, Rex already knew this because he checked it through the System.

Anything that the Executor gives needs to pass the System first.

If there's even the slightest chance that this could pose a threat, he'll have the System thoroughly inspect it. Fortunately, the armor proved to be safe upon examination, as it was indeed just a piece of protective gear.

From the side, the Demoness handed the sword, about two meters in length and very sharp.

One swing is all it takes to determine the sharpness of the sword.

Nodding his head, Rex gave the sword back to the Demoness as she sheathed it again. He then decides to leave the place and search for Edward as the campaign should start in a bit, so he holds out his hand, asking for the sword from the Demoness.

Surprisingly, the Demoness clutches it in her embrace with no intention of handing it over.

"Give me the sword" Rex demanded.

But the Demoness shook her head and replied, "I'll hold on to it until you need it"

Assuming that this might've been a safety precaution lest Rex went on a rampage here, he refrained from taking the sword and instead headed to the exit. He soon reached the main room again and found that the Executor was nowhere to be seen and so did the others.

Heading to the exit, he glanced back to the Demoness, following him from behind.

"Now, why are you following me?" Rex asked in confusion.

Upon hearing this, the Demoness gave him a light smile while still clutching the sword in her embrace, "I am your assistant, so of course I'm going to follow you. Anything you need, you can ask me and I'll give it to you"

Rex could only sigh feeling skeptical about the Demoness.

However, she doesn't seem to bore any malicious intent towards him, just doing her job.

"Are you going to follow me to battle too?" Rex asked sarcastically.

But the smile on the Demoness' face stretched as she nodded her head, surprising Rex greatly. It was unexpected because her aura was almost non-existent, leaving Rex in astonishment as she should be unfit to join the war.

Initially, Rex even thought that she was as harmless as a Supernatural civilian.

Out of curiosity, he decided to scan the Demoness.

...

<Mavenna Elyn Devore (Suppressed)>

Race: Rosadonna Succubus

Power: Rank Seventh (Mid) - Phases of Charm (2)

Mental: 8,175

Strength: 3,100

Agility: 8,510

Endurance: 4,800

Intelligence: 5,500

...

Rex inspected the Demoness, Mavenna's stats and found that she was quite strong.

If not for the First Breath, she should be in the eighth-rank realm which was quite strong for the current era. Even her mental stat is near Rex which is surprising. Hadn't she been captured by the Executor, then she would've been a respectable member of the Demon Race.

System, what is the Rosadonna Succubus known for?

He was completely unfamiliar with the Rosadonna Succubus, this was the first time.

Obviously, it's a unique sub-race of the Succubus.

<Do you want to buy the information for 15,000 Gold?>

<Yes or No>

15,000? Quite expensive for only inquiring about a race, but okay, I need to know.

Finding that there's a chance that Mavenna is a part of the Executor's plan, he should know more about her so that he can react appropriately. Nobody in this place could be trusted. He doesn't even trust Ryze, much less a random Demoness.

<Rosadonna Succubus>

It's a sub-race of the alluring Succubus lineage and possesses a distinct ability known as the Rosadonna Charm. This innate power cloaks their energy, rendering it undetectable to the opposite sex. It also compliments the Rosadonna Succubus as their true strength lies in their mastery of ranged demonic spells.

Reading the description, Rex found that her minuscule aura was connected to her race.

Due to that, he was tricked, thinking that she's nothing much.

Having no problem whatsoever with her coming along with him to battle, seeing that she could handle herself quite well, Rex put this matter to the back of his mind and headed to where the army had already gathered.

Compared to the full army, the one gathered numbered around ten thousand people.

All of them were ready in their battle gears.

More than half of this army consisted of military men who were mounting their war machines, while the rest of it was a mix of Black Hands, Awakened, and the Cessation Knights which were placed at the backline of the formation.

Only the Cessation Knights were stationed at the frontline before the military personnel.

It was due to their expertise of being an unbreakable wall.

Upon approaching Edward and Brigitta who were at the very front, the ones tasked to lead the charge, Rex and Ryze could feel the unfriendly gaze from the army but both of them dealt with it rather perfectly.

Instead of doing something, the two of them ignored their gazes and continued onward.

Soon, the two reunited with Edward and Brigtta.

Both of them are wearing a similar outfit to them, as matching uniforms are a must in war.

"Okay, here's the plan. We are going to split into two battalions. One battalion would be led by me and Rex, and we are going to confront the Vampires. While the other would be led by Ryze and Brigitta, attacking the Demons"

"Our objective is to search for the stronger Supernaturals. Is there any objection?"

Edward explained the final plan to the others.

Of course, Rex wanted to be paired with Ryze instead so that he could have a somewhat trustable companion. But he had no say in this, so he followed the others and shook his head, gesturing that he had no problem.

Nodding firmly, Edward then turned his body to the side, exposing a couple of figures.

Like any battle, communication is key.

So before they embark on their fight, Edward is going to introduce the generals.
