The Invincible Full-Moon System

Chapter 852 Genuine Dissappointment



Currently, the Silverstar Pack Members have gathered inside the castle again.

A blanket of choking silence covered the entire place.

Despite the evacuation process having been going smoothly without hiccups which is a good thing, there were no cheers inside the castle, only a peaking tension that is drowning the entire place at the air of wrath seeping out of Rex's body.

In that silence, Rex is looking at Evelyn and Adhara.

Both of them are standing in front of the throne with their heads down, looking at the floor.

Even though he was oblivious to the situation, Flunra could feel that the two were the cause of Rex being like this. But then again, this kind of thing is not an unfamiliar sight for him, Werewolf Princes of ancient times always have a problem with their pack members, especially their Luna.

One way or another, Flunra already expected that this day would come.

Shifting his eyes towards the throne, Flunra saw Gistella standing beside Rex with a troubled yet tender expression on her face. Despite not being in the wrong, she is clearly nervous about this situation.

"Lord Rex, forgive my intrusion. But I believe I should be continuing my work" Flunra said.

Upon hearing this, Rex waved his hand as Flunra's work is very important and he was also not involved in this. His presence is not necessary here, so Rex allowed him to leave with a light gesture of waving his hand.

Bowing slightly, Flunra left the throne room and heads to his own bed chamber.

Currently, Gelmar, Linthia, Dindora, and the Elves were helping the evacuated people to settle in, arranging them to their assigned residents that are already predetermined by Dindora and Linthia who are tasked with handling that matter.

Thanks to them, there was no need for Rex and the others to do anything.

Despite that being the case, Adhara and Evelyn were hoping they could help out instead.

Rex rested his chin on his hand while he looks at the two with his glowing red eyes, he was waiting for Evelyn's answer yet she couldn't muster herself to reply. It was as if her lips were glued together.

Nobody could blame her though, it was the first time Rex was genuinely mad at her.

"Rex, she was only trying to help. Isn't that a good t-"

Adhara attempted to advocate for Evelyn, but her words were halted when the throne room was suddenly filled with a dense and oppressive atmosphere. Rex's body seemed to radiate violent energy, like a red liquid cascading down his entire form, making the air inside the room more stuffy.

This reaction alone shows that Rex is not messing around, it's not the same as usual.

Despite always having a soft spot for both of them, this is starting to get out of hand. Ignoring the injuries that linger on his body, Rex exerts himself to the peak, he doesn't want this to escalate.

If he doesn't be stern here, then the two will do more reckless things in the future.

"Have the two of you gone deaf...? Are you starting to get ahead of yourselves because I'm always being nice? Don't forget, I am the one that makes the call here. Refuting me modestly is not a problem, I don't mind it" Rex said before he paused, squinting his eyes at the two. "But this is crossing the line... I can't believe out of all people, the two of you wanted to do something emotionless like that"

Upon hearing this, Evelyn and Adhara's body jolted stiffly.

Rex's words were akin to a shifty swirl of electricity that shocked and numbed their bodies.

Such strong words were used against them, the last sentence that Rex said was capable of making their hearts bleed. But the two still didn't understand, helping Prof. K and Giana wasn't supposed to be a big deal.

Especially, considering that Liliya is out there and in need of help.

Once again, Adhara and Evelyn were thrown back to what Calidora said earlier. It was starting to weigh their hearts down, the fact that they couldn't understand why Rex was this mad trouble them.

It was their purpose to become strong enough to help Rex carries the heavy burdens.

Helping Rex deals with certain problems so he could focus on the bigger ones is their reason for pursuing strength, the two wanted to become someone dependable for the person both of them love.

'Was it not what we should do...? We're trying to prove ourselves here'

'Aren't we supposed to be strong in order to help him? Why can't I understand him?'

Rex who was inspecting the changes in their facial expressions had his face darkened, he could see that none of the two were even guilty of what they are trying to do. Both have known him for so long, yet they were not apologetic at all.

Just this reaction alone makes him even angrier, yet his anger burns silently within.

"Even though Kyran was here as a testament, the two of you still don't understand. I expected much more from the two of you, but I was wrong to do that" Rex mutters silently, trying to hold the emotions swelling within him.

Sighing to himself, a long silence ensued inside the throne room.

It went on for a couple of minutes, and both Adhara and Evelyn couldn't stand any longer and raised their gaze to meet with Rex's. But at that moment, the two were surprised to find a pair of cold eyes.

No anger can be seen, Rex's eyes were still, looking at them with such coldness.

Adhara's eyes widened as she suddenly felt an ice-cold knife penetrating her heart deeply.

'A-Ah... Those- Those eyes...'

Deg!

Completely out of her control, her body started to visibly shake upon seeing Rex's cold eyes. In addition, she could hear her heart thumping faster and the blood in her legs starting to run cold, her legs started to lose strength.

'It's the same look he wears back then...'

A while back, Adhara still remembered clearly the night when Rosie begged to be turned.

She still remembers that night because she also promised Rosie to also help plead to Rex to turn her. But that night, Rex was wearing the same cold eyes, he was completely emotionless when he refused to turn Rosie.

Adhara felt the coldness even though it wasn't her that got refused.

But at this moment she was the one that the coldness was directed to, she was on the receiving end, and that alone makes her emotions jumbled in chaos. The fear of the meaning behind Rex's eyes was palpable, crippling her body.

Knowing that this time, it was not a joke, Adhara felt her breath becoming heavier.

"R- Rex, I'm sor-"

Just before she could apologize, a smile of ridicule crosses his face.I think you should take a look at pandasnovel.com

"I've chosen the two of you as the Female Alpha and the Luna, yet that seems to be a mistake on my part. Both couldn't do their own roles. Maybe your ranks in the pack need to be changed, maybe the two of you are unfit for your ranks and in need of being demoted" Rex intervenes.

His statement was calm yet it was thunderous in Adhara's ears.

Getting up from the throne, the sound of Rex's footsteps descending the stairs echoed inside the throne room. It was then Adhara saw his feet stopped when they reaches right in front of her. 

Out of nowhere, Rex grabs Adhara's chin and lifted her face up to see him.

"Or maybe... I should've just dumped you as I did to Rosie. Someone that couldn't meet my expectation and thus useless like you doesn't belongs in the Silverstar Pack. Maybe I should've stripped you from your powers and given it all to Calidora instead..." 

"Heugh!" Adhara yelped when she heard this, her body is shaking violently.

Due to the pressure of remembering the cold eyes that Rex is wearing right now, her mind breaks down and got detached from reality. Rex who was sitting on the throne can see Adhara hugging her own shaking body.

Seems like the pressure is too overwhelming for her and causes this.

Although that is the case, Rex didn't intend to be easy on them as his anger already reached its peak already. It was then, he declared with a monotone voice, "For now, the two of you... don't talk to me"

"No... I don't even want to see you for now" he added coldly.

Upon hearing this, even Evelyn becomes stressed as she doesn't know where she was wrong yet Rex has become this angry. It's safe to say that Rex has never been easily angered by the two of them, so this must be a big mistake.

Realizing that Evelyn was about to say something, Gistella quickly intervenes.

"M- Master, I'll escort them out of the throne room. Is that okay?"

"Yes, get them out of my sight"

Bowing slightly, Gistella descends down the throne and heads to Adhara and Evelyn. Evelyn was stunned while Adhara is still out of the place, paralyzed on her spot. But then, Gistella whispered to them, "If you say anything more, you'll make the situation worse. Leave for now"

Despite wanting to say something, Evelyn restrained herself to not say anything.

Gistella helped Adhara as the three left the throne room.

After everyone left the throne room, Rex could finally lean back again with a gloomy expression. It was then he slightly gritted his teeth, "They spend so much time with me, we've even gone through a lot together. I thought they would understand that everything changed, but it seems I stand corrected"

"Then again, I can still use this as punishment" he added with a sigh.

Meanwhile, in the other hallway on the left, Flunra eavesdrop on the conversation.

Seems he was not spotted due to how much Rex is in a shaken state right now, and he could only sigh and shakes his head, "Both of them are too young, seems like the old tradition of having most of the Prince's mate older including the Luna is the right way"

"It hasn't even been that long since his parents died, yet they couldn't understand" 

Flunra then strides away and heads back to his bed chamber.

Leaving the scene as well as Rex alone inside the throne room, sitting with a pondering mind, a flicker of energy can be seen appearing in front of the throne which pulled Rex's eyes towards it.

In a moment, the energy swirls into a portal before a figure came out of it.

Rex gazed at the figure with a calm gaze, completely stoic without any lingering emotions from the incident earlier. It was the Witch of Chaos, she already came a moment ago as promised to fortify Dargena City's barrier.

"Are you here to take your children or are you done with your work?" Rex asked teasingly.

Upon hearing this, the witch's eerie eyes gaze around the throne room before she eventually looks at Rex. It was then she becomes hesitant, almost as if she doesn't want to say what she was about to say.

But this is natural, Rex's request is definitely troublesome for someone like her.

Clearly, the Witch of Chaos came here to discuss his request, it's written all over her usually stoic face. Since she will be working for him in the meantime and also owed him some requests, she doesn't have any other choice.

pandasnovel.com "Okay, it's for my sake too. I'll accept it" the Witch replied.

Rex was quite surprised when he finds the Witch easily accepted the request, he expected her to be more defiant about the request and negotiate, especially when the request is that humiliating for her to do.

Then again, she already sent her children to be humiliated. It's already too late.

After saying that, the Witch of Chaos then continues with her rasping yet respectful voice, "But Royal Black Prince, you need to unbind your cursed source and cultivate it. Without your aid, altering the Gem would be impossible, especially when your desire is to finish it prior to the First Breath ending and in such strict conditions"

"I'll do it as soon as possible. Can you help me cultivate it faster?" Rex asked back.

Despite not knowing much about cursed power, obtaining it would be a great increase in power for him. Imagine casting Cursed Zone and Domain from the Full Moon at the same time, he would be unstoppable!

In addition, with the help of the Witch of Chaos, his growth will be very rapid.

Listening to what he said, the Witch of Chaos ponders, flipping the page of the invisible grimoire that only she could see before she eventually replied, "Yes, I can. But there are important steps to be done before that. I'll need to tame high-epiphany cursed creatures, and you, Royal Black Prince would also need to stay adjacent to the other half of your curse for a couple of days but preferably more than a week"

Rex frowned when he heard this, clearly her answer troubles him.

Taming high-epiphany cursed creatures is not the problem, there are the Forsaken Man and the Duchess of Tears inside the Humming Damned Forest. But what troubles him the most was the latter part.

"Do you mean I'll need to stay close to Calidora?" Rex asked, trying to be certain.

Upon hearing this, the Witch nodded her head firmly. It's a required step to accelerate the development of the cursed source, "Yes, Calidora's cursed source is more developed than yours. It's better that way, so you will need her. Also, when I say stay very close, I mean very close. Within a room or closer"

Just listening to this alone makes Rex massage his forehead in frustration. 

"Is there no other way other than that?" Rex asked again.

But the Witch of Chaos shakes her head, that's an important process because the Eternal Curse within Rex is split into two, "No, yours are a unique case. If this process is not done, then I can't guarantee that we could alter the Gem properly and finish it before the First Breath ends"

"Okay, I get it. I'll see what I can do" Rex replied, sighing to himself.

The timing couldn't be better.
