The Invincible Full-Moon System

Chapter 38: Vouver City

Inside the main branch of UWO in Ratmawati City,

A middle-aged man with white hair and a white beard is sitting on a chair inside some kind of private room, behind him is a big modern window that showcases the entire Ratmawati City.

On his table scatter papers and documents, there is a sign on his table saying, ”Sebrof Mosk”

Sebrofʼs muscular body looks abnormal for his age, he seems to be in deep thought while stroking his creased forehead.

Suddenly the door opened,

A man in his twenties wearing glasses enters the room with a document in his hand, he bows slightly towards Sebrof

”President Sebrof, three guilds have agreed to join hands to take back Zrolis City. These are the lists of guilds and their member that will participate in the siege”, He said, although he looks calm one can see his hands are trembling while giving the documents.

Sebrof takes the document and reads it swiftly, his eyes then widened in disbelief, ”Is this a joke?”, he said glaring at the man.

He then continues, ”Out of 9 guilds, only 3 agreed? and also they only sent a total of 9 rank-five Awakened and 34 rank-four Awakened?! This is a Werewolf pack lead by Brutal Grey weʼre talking about!”, Black lightning started to circulate around him, the aura of a rank eight Awakened pressed down on the man.

The man falls to his knee unable to handle the pressure, ”They said it is too dangerous for their higher-ranking member to join in blindly”

”Too dangerous?! Do they want me to ask help from the military again?! Where will I put my face then!”, Sebrofʼs anger explodes hearing the half-ass excuse.

BAM!!

Sebrof slamʼs his hands on the table immediately splitting it into two, the floor trembles under his might, ”Tell the nine guilds, all of the guilds need to participate and need to at least gives 10 rank-six Awakened”

Hearing this, the man wearing glasses bows his head, ”Yes sir!”, he then left the room hurriedly but before he can open the door Sebrof called.

”Are you still monitoring that Organization?”, he asks while sitting back down trying to calm his anger.

The man turns to his back and replied, ”Yes, they are on the move”

Sebrof waves his hand sending the man away, he then clicked his tongue in displeasure, ʼI cannot get outshine by them, more people started relying more on them than usʼ, he thought.

Back to Ochyra University,

Rex is going to meet up with the others in a cafe,

While heʼs walking, he read about the mission sent by Adhara, ʼThe mission is located on Vouver City, a level three city in the east of Ratmawati City. The FAA already sent two rank-two Awakened teams and one rank-three Awakened team but they all have gone missing, the supernatural said to be a Lamia with at least rank three powerʼ

Lamia is a creature with an upper body of a human and a lower body of a snake, they like to kidnap kids and eat them alive.

Rex frowns after reading this, he doesnʼt know why but he got a bad feeling about this one.

After ten minutes, he arrives at the cafe and met the others there.

”So are you excited about our first mission?”, Rosie said just after Rex sit beside her.

Rex scrunch her face making Rosie pouted and said, ”This is not a game, so prepare yourself well alright”

Rosie wanted to rebut but stopped when Rex suddenly said, ”I donʼt want you to get hurt”, her face blushed red as she nodded her head obediently.

After that, Laura then said, ”When are we departing? We can just ask Mr. Joseph permission to be absent until weʼre done”

”How about tomorrow? Letʼs prepare and depart tomorrow morning”, Adhara said after brief thinking.

The others agree to depart tomorrow as they left to prepare themselves.

The next day,

Rex is in his room packing his stuff, he brought spare clothes, food, water, and necessary items that they might need such as Healing Elixir, Protection Rune, Alarm Rune, Silent Rune, etc.

He also bought a couple of combat suit if somehow he needed to sneak around, with that the money he has decreased by a huge chunk.

After packing the elixirs into his inventory and his clothes and weapon into the bag neatly, he nodded his head in satisfaction before he plugs his earphone and left his room.

Rex and the girls will meet at the train station, they will go there by train because using a car is not convenient especially there are many inspections done on cars.

They board the early train and left Ochyra University,

The sky is still dark without a shy of light, the train is spacious as there are only a few people inside.

Rex is playing with his phone beside Laura, Rosie and Adhara fell asleep beside each other leaving him and Laura awake.

The cold air enters the train making Laura hugged her body, she accidentally bumps into Rexʼs arm and felt warmth from it.

Laura glances at him and asks, ”Since when did you get this warm? and also, youʼre so muscular now huh”, she said while touching Rexʼs rock-solid arm and muscles.

Rex who is playing a game on his phone replied, ”Iʼve been like this since the military, you just didnʼt notice”

”Fine, Iʼll watch you closely from now on”, She said while leaning her head on Rexʼs shoulder still staring at Rex.

Hearing this, Rex becomes embarrassed, ”Stop teasing me already”, he said helplessly.

”HAHA, still shy as ever”, Laura laughs before she closes her eyes.

After Laura goes to sleep too, Rex watches the scenery as the train pass, he canʼt shake the bad omen he felt along the way.

The train moves so fast making Ratmawati City becomes smaller and smaller.

Unknown to Rex, they already arrive at Seumwood City, the furthest level two city.

To go to Vouver City or any other level three and four cities, they must go by foot or rent a car because the train cannot go further from level two cities.

Rex and the girls get down from the train and decided to rent a car, the car is a family car but geared with protection.

Rex paid $2000 dollar for a lift to Vouver City, the driver will also pick them up when theyʼre done.

Rex sits in front of the car beside the driver, the driver is a middle-aged normal man in his forties, while the girls sit in the back.

The car drives slowly along the woods near Seumwood City, the sun is already out but the dense forest blocks the sunlight making it really dim inside.

Breaking the silence, the driver asks, ”So you guys are from Ochyra University if Iʼm not mistaken?”

”Yes”, Rex replied politely.

”Are you guys going on a mission in Vouver City?”, he asks again.

Rex nodded, ”Yes, they said there is a Lamia roaming around”

The driver gasp in shock, ”Lamia? Ugh, Iʼm thankful Iʼm not an Awakened, Iʼm just too scared of them”

Rex smiles wryly before he gets back to playing his phone.

After two hours of driving, they finally got out of the forest, a small city without any walls or anything comes into view.

The city can hardly be called a city, it is more like a village instead.

Rex and the girls get out of the car while stretching their bodies, the long bumpy trip inside a car makes their body stiff.

Before the driver left, he said, ”Oh yeah, I donʼt know if this helps or not but rumor said that the people in this city are weird. For unknown reasons, they are easily tired and active at night”

Hearing this, Rex frowns before he said his thanks to the driver.

The Vouver City entrance is only made of wooden plank, this early in the morning the city seems deserted with no sign of life.

The city looks comfy from the outside with a flowing clear river on the back of the city, but the tall leafless trees that decorate its surroundings bring an eerie feeling to the city.

”Is this the right place? Thereʼs hardly any sign of life here”, Laura said while she looks around.

Rosie takes a deep breath before she shouted, ”HELLO!! ANYONE HERE!!!”

Then suddenly an old woman with a wrinkled face appear just from the corner of the house on their right, she then points at a hotel and said, ”Oh visitor, please make yourself comfortable”

Rex smacks Rosieʼs head and replied, ”Thank you and sorry for the trouble”, he said politely.

Rosie rubs her head in displeasure before Adhara hugs her to calm her down,

Rex and the girls walk towards a two-star hotel, they wanted to put their luggage before investigating.

Creak...

The hotel door makes a creaking sound as Rex pushes it,

Inside the hotel is a cramped space with little to no decoration and a receptionist desk, there is a woman sleeping there.

Rex approaches the desk, ”Excuse me”, he said politely.

The woman on the desk looks dead in Rexʼs eyes especially with that pale skin, but suddenly she jolted awake with a smile on her face, ”Welcome, are you the Awakened sent by FAA?”, she asks.

Rex nodded his head and replied, ”Yes, There seems to be a complaint about a Lamia wandering around here”

”Yes, sadly our kids are eaten by it”, she said with a sad expression but in Rexʼs eyes, her expression seems unnatural as if itʼs forced.

”Iʼm sorry to hear that, weʼll get a room here and then weʼll investigate”, Rex replied before the woman gives Rex two keys.

Rex and the girls then walk upstairs, the hotel seems empty with no one beside them staying.

He then found the rooms, Rosie throws a tantrum wanting to be in the same room as Rex which eventually agreed to avoid her making a scene.

Inside the room, Rex unpacked his stuff and so do Rosie.

”Rex, do you feel weird about the city?”, Rosie asks with a troubled expression, she then continues, ”The reason I wanted to be with you is because Iʼm scared, I just felt something is watching us”

Hearing this, Rex nodded his head in agreement, ”Donʼt worry, I felt it too. It seems something is off about this city”, Rex replied especially after his Supernatural Sense is ringing uncontrollably,

The system just confirmed his suspicion a minute ago,
