"He asks for a handshake suspiciously, and I think that's when he did it", Edward said before coughing weakly a couple of times.

Rex looks at Edward in confusion, "How can you fall for that?"

"I got caught off guard, cut me some slack", Edward replied with a  wry smile.

Hearing this, Rex sigh before he bought an elixir from the shop before he pours it all over Edward's rotten arm.

Edward looks up to the ceiling while grunting a couple of times.

"What is that?", Edward asks.

Rex's hand glows with lightning mana as he focuses his attention on Edward's arm, "It's Mana Essence Elixir, the worm's favorite snack"

The system already told Rex how to take out the worm for 200 gold.

Basically, the worm likes to eat mana but the Mana Essence Elixir is a treat that is way tempting for the worm than actual mana because of its purified state.

"We just need to wait for it to come....out!"

Just while Rex said that the pinky-sized mutated worm pluck its head through Edward's skin before Rex quickly pull it out.

Scrii!

Rex held the worm between his fingers before he squeezed it.

<Killed a Fifth Rank Mutated Insect, Obtained 300,000 Exp>

The system gave Rex a notification after killing the worm, and right after that Edward's expression becomes lighter as the pain in his arm is gone.

"Feeling better?", Rex asks with a slight chuckle.

Edward's pale skin started to look better before he replied teasingly, "Man you have a talent in becoming a doctor, Why don't you try to be one?"

"Not a chance", Rex replied back before he gets up.

He then continues, "Since you're going to get better, we're going somewhere in two days. Make sure you're ready to go and fight"

"You're ruthless as ever", Edward said while turning his body around.

Looking at this, Rex chuckle lightly before he bid goodbye and left.

After checking on Edward, Rex went straight back to his room to tell Adhara and Kyran that they will be going out to do something.

'Should I split the team in two? It will be faster that way', Rex thought.

While walking in the university hall, Rex is thinking about whether he should split into two teams to finish the tasks he had faster.

Currently, Rex needs to fulfill Evelyn's request and finish his Carabidis Temple quest.

The items that Evelyn wanted is in Lountain City, Evelyn already provided Rex with the location of the city.

Lountain City is a level three city located in the east of Ratmawati City,

It is a city near a mountain called Bleak Everson Hills that is known for always raining, the desolate plain surroundings are covered by mist, and the clouds that are always covered the sky is the reason why the mountain is named Bleak.

The mountain is filled with mutated animals and insects from small bugs to big mutated mountain cats.

Although the place is filled with mutated animals, the city doesn't have a problem living there because they're protected by a sixth rank Awakened that was born in that place.

Evelyn wanted him to take two items,

Grisly Mist Bear is a fifth rank mutated animal that lives in a group of five, he needs to kill one of them to get their heart but the problem is not their heart but the Ambrosia Cloud.

This is a magical item that was created from a place with a dense mist.

Lountain City is a perfect place to search for this Ambrosia Cloud, but it is not a guarantee to get it even with such a perfect place to search.

While Rex is thinking, he unconsciously arrived in front of his room.

Rex walked inside before he suddenly saw Adhara and Kyran sitting on the sofa beside the entrance, they seem to be talking but they stopped when Rex got in.

"Adhara, Kyran, We'll go somewhere in two days so be prepared", Rex said.

He then wanted to go back to his room but Adhara suddenly called,

Rex glances at both of them in question before Adhara signals to sit, "I wanted to talk to you about something, Do you have a moment?"

"Sure", Rex said before he sat on the sofa.

Rex looks at both of them trying to decipher what's this all about.

Under Rex's gaze, Kyran averted his gaze somewhere else feeling nervous.

Adhara sigh, she can see that Kyran is very nervous as he fidgets his fingers, "Kyran met Hans today in the canyon", she said.

Hearing this, Rex widened his eyes as he was about to get mad.

But Adhara intervenes, "Listen to me first"

Rex's attention landed on Adhara as he frowns, "What is this really about?"

"Hans is suspicious about Kyran's source of strength, they researched his past and find that Kyran is not as strong as he is right now", Adhara explained.

She then continues, "Kyran didn't give Hans any information, but he also becomes curious"

Rex massages his forehead while listening to Adhara, he already knows where this conversation is going and he doesn't think Kyran is ready for the truth.

But then suddenly, Rex frowns upon hearing what Adhara is about to say.

"Just trust Kyran, he's a grown man right now and he should know about it", Adhara added.

Rex looks at Adhara and Kyran back and forth in confusion, "Trust Kyran? I always trust him from the start and I never doubted him"

Hearing this, Kyran widened his eyes in shock.

Both Adhara and Kyran look at each other in surprise, they didn't expect Rex's answer.

"Then why don't you just tell him?", Adhara asks.

Rex sigh before he looks at Kyran right in the eyes, "Kyran, How did your sisters die?"

Kyran was confused about what his sister had to do with the current problem, he glance at Adhara and found that she's also confused.

"My little sister got trapped in a house by the Supernatural, then my older sister tried to save my little sister recklessly before both of them died. I can only watch both of them die as I turn around to flee", Kyran replied as his expression turns cold.

Looking at his change in expression from nervousness, Rex sigh knowing that he is still not ready.

"You see? He's not ready", Rex said while glancing at Adhara.

Adhara frown upon hearing this,

Rex then wanted to get up and leave but Kyran stopped him, "How am I not ready? What is the purpose of asking about my sisters?"

Seeing Kyran's resolute look, Rex sigh.

"Butlers and Maids, take the rest of the day off", Rex shouted.

Hearing Rex's command, the butlers and the maids stopped what they're doing and bowed their heads before they all left the room.

The big room becomes empty, only the three of them are left,

"What would you do if you go back in time to when your sisters died?", Rex then asks.

Kyran then instantly answer without thinking, "I'm going to kill the Supernatural of course, I will save my sisters and prevent their death"

Rex smirks lightly hearing this,

Kyran frown upon seeing Rex's smirk, he knows that he's being tested but he didn't know if Rex's smirk is a good sign or a bad sign.

"What would you do if you go back in time and find yourself to be the Supernatural?", Rex said lightly making Kyran's body go stiff.

Kyran was surprised by Rex's question, "I-I will-"

"Would you still try to save your sisters? What will your family think of you knowing well that you turn into a Supernatural? Are you going to kill yourself? ", Rex kept asking making Kyran not know what to do.

But then, Kyran's eyes become resolute before he said, "Nevertheless, I'm ready for the truth"

CRACK!

Rex's body makes a cracking sound right after Kyran said that.

He then stand up before he put the palm of his hand to the wall,

Not long after he did that, he remove his hand from the wall as a glowing rune appear on the wall. The energy it emits covered the whole place.

Under Kyran's eyes, Rex's body changed.

A red aura that feels very evil came out of Rex's body like smoke, his hands turn into black steel claws that glow with sharpness, his muscles bulged slightly and his eyes turns red as he stares straight at Kyran's eyes.

"Are you ready for the truth?", Rex asks again after transforming his body.

His voice becomes even deeper as he stares at Kyran sharply.

Rex didn't transform fully into his Werewolf Form, he just partially transform without the black furs and muzzles.

He's still human-like, but his presence said otherwise.

Kyran widened his eyes in horror as he see Rex's body changing right in front of his eyes, he felt that he's in a dream and everything he see is not real.

Adhara can only sit quietly letting the events in front of her unfolds.

Thud!

Rex stomped the ground harshly before he stands towering in front of Kyran, "Let me ask you again, Are you ready for the truth?"

Hearing this, Kyran wanted to nod his head but his head didn't want to listen to him.

"You're no longer a human Kyran, I turn you into a Werewolf", Rex said lightly.

The words that came out of Rex's mouth were like a siren wailing in Kyran's ears, he is instantly put into a dazed as his head still trying to grasp the situation he's in.

After telling Kyran the truth, Rex turns back to normal.

He looks at Kyran who is in a daze before he glances at Adhara, "You're the one who initiate this, so you will be the one explaining things to Kyran", Rex said.

Adhara doesn't know why, but Rex's command gives pressure on her.

It's like her body automatically will do what Rex said, and subconsciously she nodded her head.

Rex then left the two of them and went to his room,

Upon entering his room, Rex went straight to the bathroom and splashes his face with water from the sink.

He then hold the edge of the sink before he look at the mirror in thought, 'If mom and dad are still alive, what would they think of me right now?'

Supernatural Territory, Vampire Kingdom.

A couple of nights later,

"Dear, Why did you call me?", Solomon asks after he got inside the throne room.

Nezera is lying on the big throne with a glass of blood in her hands, she then sits back up on the throne positioning herself better after seeing Solomon.

"You came back, How are the stronghold doing?", Nezera asks sweetly.

Hearing this, Solomon smiles widely before he sits on the throne beside Nezera's seat, "The stronghold is fine, I left three of the nobles to guard it so it should be okay without me"

After saying that, Solomon then glances at Nezera.

He then caresses Nezera's cheek with love as his eyes glow red,

But when he was about to lean in for a kiss, Nezera pulls back making Solomon frowns in confusion, "My dear, What is it?"

Nezera's expression turns sour, "I told The Werewolf and Shapeshifter about the ritual"

"The Ritual? That's okay, they will find out about it eventually. We already conduct our ritual first and amass many pawns, both of them will not surpass us", Solomon said trying to console Nezera.

Hearing this, Nezera's expression turns bright.

Solomon smiles seeing Nezera's expression become better, "That's all you wanted to say? You didn't need to get worked up that much"

After knowing that Solomon is not mad, Nezera jumped to his lap and kissed him.

This makes Solomon chuckles lightly before suddenly Nezera remembered something, "I almost forgot, the Werewolf in the human territory turns out to be a Prince"

Solomon's expression went stiff upon hearing this,

"I was worried for a moment that King Baralt's forces might get split in two, but now that I think about it, we should just let the Werewolves kill each other", Nezera added happily.

But Solomon can only look at her in absolute shock.

Noticing Solomon's weird expression, Nezera stopped, "What's wrong?"

"TELL ME YOU DIDN'T TELL THE WEREWOLVES ABOUT IT!!", Solomon suddenly shouted as his aura pushes Nezera off of him.

Looking at Solomon's panicked expression, "I didn't, I thought it will be better to let the Prince takes his throne and fight with King Baralt"

"YOU IDIOT!", Solomon cursed in anger.

He then stands up roughly as he got put in his thought,

Nezera stands back up in confusion and asks, "What's wrong dear? What did I do wrong?"

"Thankfully you didn't tell the Werewolves about this, if that were to happen then our kingdom might be in danger! Thank the origin that you didn't tell them", Solomon said before he sigh in relief.

But Nezera was still confused, "Shouldn't it be to our advantage if they fight?"

"I don't know where that monster came from, but the Prince of Werewolf has a powerful skill called the Twilight Howl that makes the Werewolves way stronger than even using the Enchanter's magic", Solomon explained with a troubled look.

He then continues, "If King Baralt and the Prince fight for the throne and King Baralt win, he can eat the Prince and become the Prince himself with the same skill. Not only that, the presence of a Prince will birth a phenomenon called the Lunar Awakening which will evolve every Werewolf under their kingdom into a higher race"

Nezera listened to Solomon in shock,

She just realized how close she is to destroying her own kingdom.

If that were to happen, the Werewolf will be way stronger than any current Supernatural Kingdom which allows them to have a high standing.

This means that they can do whatever they please,

Because of the strained relationship the Werewolf and the Vampire has, King Baralt might just put a target on their kingdom after pushing the humans back or even the Prince who inherit the bad blood from King Baralt's followers.

And this will make them completely defenseless,

"So what should we do?", Nezera asks.

Solomon then said firmly, "We need to kill him first without anyone knowing, How is Calidora's condition from her visit"

"She's growing very strong because she manage to drink the Prince's blood", Nezera replied.

Hearing this, Solomon then thought for a moment before he finally said, "Let me check on Calidora first, but for now, tell all of the Vampires that if they encounter the Prince of Werewolf they are commanded to kill him on the spot"
