The Invincible Full-Moon System

Chapter 241: Frail Old Heart

Rosie wakes up in her room,

Upon waking up, a smile blossoms on her face for some reason.

After that she jumped out of the bed and opened her closet, she open the drawer in her closet before two items came into her vision.

There is a pouch and a ring that has a red crystal engraved on it.

Rosie looks at the two items with shiny eyes, she then closed the drawer again before she quickly went to the bathroom.

The day is just starting,

Rosie change into her uniform because she has a class to attend, but she didnʼt forget to take the two items inside the drawer happily before she left the room.

The butlers and the maids greet her, she only nods her head heading to the entrance door.

But when she walked past Rexʼs room, she stopped.

She seems to be thinking for a moment,

Rosie stretches out her hand and touches the roomʼs door lightly, but suddenly the door opened,

Adhara opened the door while focusing her attention on her phone, she didnʼt see Rosie stepping back in front of her as Adhara bumps into her.

”Rosie? Youʼre going to class?”, Adhara asks while looking at Rosieʼs clothes.

Rosie smile lightly before she replied, ”Yes, Iʼm going right now”,

But when she turns her body towards the entrance, Rosie then asks, ”Oh yeah, I was just about to ask where Rex is?”

”Heʼs training in the training ground, you shouldnʼt disturb him”, Adhara replied nonchalantly.

Rosie nodded her head and walks towards the entrance, but then,

”I wish you good luck”, Adhara suddenly said from the back.

Hearing this, Rosie stopped and looks back at Adhara in confusion.

Adhara then points at the two items in Rosieʼs hand and added, ”I know youʼre trying to evolve your element, and I hope you succeed”

The items that Rosie held didnʼt slip past from Adharaʼs eyes.

Rosie then smiles happily before she said, ”Thanks!”

After saying that Rosie left under Adharaʼs gaze,

Adhara smiles lightly before she looks back to her phone, ”Daniel Burton...”

Thereʼs a photo of Daniel Burton on her phone on the UWO official web where all of the 25 Golden Crest identities can be seen by the public.

Back when Rex is sleeping in her embrace a couple of days ago,

Rex is mumbling lightly in his sleep, and Adhara catches the name that he mumbles during his sleep, Daniel Burton.

Because of that, Adhara is curious about the person and found that heʼs the head of the Burton Family, the fifth rank family in the 25 Golden Crest.

Adhara scrolls the webpage before her eyes transfixed on a section,

”You donʼt say...”, Adhara mumbles.

She saw the general information part of the Burton Family and was surprised to see it, but a smile then replace her surprised expression.

Then suddenly, the butler opens the entrance as Kyran enters the room.

Seeing Kyran this early in the morning, Adhara frowns before she approached him, ”Where were you? You never wake up this early”, she asks suspiciously.

Her eyes then fall onto Kyranʼs index finger that is currently bruised.

”What happened?”, Adhara asks in concern.

Kyranʼs puts his head down unable to see Adharaʼs eyes, he hides his bruised index finger on his back before he said, ”I went to the Canyon to try out my new power”

Hearing this, Adhara widened her eyes in shock, ”What?! I told you not to!”, she scolded.

”Youʼre the one who saw Hans that night with Edward, so you must know how dangerous the man is for Rex to forbid us from going outside”, Adhara added angrily.

Rex already told them specifically to not go out until the situation calmed down.

If he knows that Kyran got out and went to the Canyon, not only Kyran but Adhara will be scolded too and she knows it.

But then, ”I met with Hans at the Canyon...”, Kyran said lightly.

Adhara widened her eyes in shock, ”Is your finger got hurt because of him?! We need to tell Rex about this”

After saying that, Adhara wanted to go to Rex but Kyran hold her hand.

She looks back at Kyran in confusion before he said, ”Hans asks how did Rex makes me, a nobody, become this strong... and I told him that I donʼt know because I really donʼt know”

”And this got me wondering, How did Rex give me this power?”, Kyran added.

Hearing this, Adhara frowns, ”You must trust Rex, Hans is trying to corrupt your mind so you need to stay strong”

But then suddenly, ”I TRUST REX!!”, Kyran shouted.

His shout caught Adhara off guard because it came out of nowhere, and Adhara suddenly saw tears falling from Kyranʼs eyes.

”You donʼt understand, I trust Rex but he doesnʼt trust me”, Kyran said with his wobbly voice.

He then continues, ”When my sisters died, I was left alone in this world, I spent all my days trying to survive by myself until Rex came. When everybody acts as if I donʼt exist, Rex still look at me and even give me a chance to prove myself which I did”

”Now I have power more than I ever dreamt, and I can use this to help other struggling people just like me by killing Supernatural”

Looking at Kyran who is about to break out, Adhara pulls and hugs him.

Kyran started crying under her embrace as he mumbles, ”How can I make Rex trust me...”

Adhara kept hugging him tightly, she thought of what Kyran said for a moment before she finally said, ”Donʼt worry, Iʼll talk to Rex”

Unknown to them, a boy peeps at them from one of the rooms and heard their conversations.

Meanwhile,

”I just canʼt believe this... How can you breakthrough multiple times in one go”, Chandler said while putting his hand on Rexʼs back.

He already checks inside Rexʼs body and finds 12 media in it.

But even after he inspects it, Chandler still feels that whatʼs happening in front of his eyes is very unreal that he even slaps himself a couple of times.

Not only did Rex manage to create 12 media in one go,

The mana in each media is so terrifyingly dense that even Chandler have a hard time penetrating Rexʼs body with his mana to inspect it, he drains almost three-quarter of his mana just to check on Rexʼs body.

This shows how much of a gap their current mana pool is,

With the high affinity and the amount of mana Rex collected from the High-Grade Lightning Stone, Chandler doesnʼt stand a chance.

And Chandler knows it,

If Rexʼs mana when he hasnʼt reached the sixth rank is this dense, then Chandler canʼt imagine how terrifying his mana will be when he reaches the sixth rank.

With the precise amount of mana that Rex currently has in each media,

Chandler also realizes that Rex has a spirit in mind, and the spirit is definitely a powerful spirit that even he canʼt begin to imagine its power.

He will be invincible in his rank, such talent scares Chandler greatly.

Rex smiles wryly before he said, ”I manage to create the twelve media, but I canʼt seem to create the last two media on my heart and brain”

The twelve media he made is easy for him, but the last two are different.

No matter how high Rexʼs pain tolerance is it just doesnʼt work, he canʼt forcefully create the media like the on his major joints so thatʼs why Chandler came at the right time.

Surely Chandler who already reached rank six knows whatʼs wrong with him.

Chandler stands up as his shocked expression disappears, his lecturerʼs serious look came back as he looks down on Rex.

Seeing this, Rex can only chuckle lightly.

”Stop acting high and mighty when you just got surprised a minute ago”, Rex said teasingly.

Hearing this, Chandler scoffs and replied, ”No matter how talented you are, you will still reach a bottleneck without me as a tutor by your side”

ʼSystem, Do you know how to create the last two media?ʼ, Rex asks.

Reading this, Rex smiles mockingly at Chandler and thought, ʼIt seems I donʼt really need him, but free knowledge is something that I canʼt passʼ

”What is the purpose of the media?”, Chandler asks seriously.

Rex thought for a moment before he said, ”To contain a spirit inside oneʼs body”

”Correct, but thatʼs not all”, Chandler replied making Rex frown in confusion.

He then explained, ”After creating the 12 media, an Awakened must create the last 2 media which located in the heart and the brain. But no matter how hard you try, you will not be successful in creating these last 2 media without a connector”

”A connector? What do you mean?”, Rex asks in confusion.

Chandler smirked mockingly making Rex annoyed before he continue, ”The 12 media needs to be connected with one and another before creating the heart media, this allows the mana in these media to reinforce each other making the spirit containment sturdier”

”When you assimilate with a spirit, the spirit wonʼt just let you, and they will fight back so the connector is crucial in holding the spirit. The mana in your media is permanent, and it will not be used upon conjuring spells. Lastly, after you did that, you can connect the heart media to your brain to complete the fifth rank process and assimilate with a spirit”

Rex listened to Chandlerʼs explanation seriously before he nodded his head.

Based on what Chandler said, Rex concluded that he needs to connect the twelve media to the heart before creating a media on the heart.

Then he will connect the heart media to the brain before he assimilates with a spirit.

After knowing what to do, Rex wanted to continue his training before suddenly Chandler stopped him, ”You need to rest before proceeding, trust me”

”I donʼt feel any fatigue, why do you say that?”, Rex asks suspiciously.

Hearing this, Chandler then thought for a moment and said, ”After creating 12 media, your body will be in a temporary lockdown as the 12 media is still adjusting to your body so you need to rest”

Rex glance at Chandler suspiciously making Chandler gulp harshly.

”You...You just made that up didnʼt you?”, Rex asks while squinting his eyes, he can decipher Chandler easily like an open book.

This caught Chandler off guard,

Chandler then sigh after getting exposed, ”Just rest, You will shock everyone to death if you manage to reach the sixth rank in one day”

Rex chuckles lightly seeing Chandlerʼs defeated expression.

He then stands up before he taps on Chandlerʼs shoulder, ”Fine, Iʼll take the day off for the sake of your frail old heart”

After saying that, Rex left.

Chandler widened his eyes after realizing that he just got mocked, he looks at the door where Rex disappeared into and shouted, ”WHO ARE YOU CALLING OLD!! IʼM 39!”

~

Rex leaves the training ground after deciding to take the day off.

”Letʼs check on Edward”, Rex thought.

He walks towards Edward room that is not far away from his room,

Edwardʼs room is above Rexʼs room almost directly, so itʼs not that far to go to Edwardʼs room from his room.

Arriving in front of Edwardʼs room,

Rex knocked three times on the door lightly,

Knock! Knock! Knock!

The sound of footsteps can be heard from inside the room before the door slightly opens, Edward peeks out from the inside.

Looking at Edwardʼs condition, Rex widened his eyes in shock.

Adhara told him about Edwardʼs deteriorating condition, but he didnʼt think that his condition is worse than he imagine.

His eyes are sunken because of lack of sleep, Rex also saw that his left eye is red for some reason, and his hair is messy.

The stink can be smelled by Rex making him frown.

”Can I come in?”, Rex asks calmly, seeing his friend in this state pained him greatly.

Edward then opens the door wider and steps to the side signaling for Rex to go inside.

After entering Edwardʼs room,

Rex saw that the room is tidy unlike what he expected, he thought that the smell comes from Edwardʼs room but to his surprise, itʼs not.

”Adhara is the one that tidied the room”, Edward said nonchalantly.

Hearing this, Rex nodded his head because with Edwardʼs weak condition he can barely walk much less clean up the room.

But then, ”What happened to your arm?”, Rex asks with a frown.

While Edward is walking back to his bed, Rex saw that his right arm is greenish and it looks unnatural because of it.

Edward glance at his right arm, ”It got like this since yesterday, the doctor canʼt help it”

After saying that, Edward lies on the bed weakly.

Rex approached him before he kneel beside his bed, he then grabbed Edwardʼs right arm before he frowns, ʼThe stink comes from his armʼ, Rex thought.

Upon getting closer, Rex notices the rotting smell coming from Edwardʼs ard.

He then tries to feel any abnormalities in his arm with his mana to no avail, Rex can feel nothing from Edwardʼs arm.

Feeling helpless, Rex then finally asks the system.

ʼSystem, Scan his arm and check if thereʼs somekind of poison, sickness, or somethingʼ, Rex thought hurriedly.

While the system is scanning Rex thought of all possibilities.

ʼDid this happen because of the clash of the high-affinity orb? But why did it become rotten like this, it doesnʼt make senseʼ, Rex thought.

Edwardʼs body is heating up, and his breathing is also heavy.

Not long after, the system finished scanning Edwardʼs arm.

Reading this, Rex frowns in thought, ʼHorned Red Worm? Thereʼs no Rainforest around hereʼ

”You have a mutated insect in your arm, we need to get it out as soon as possible”, Rex said making Edward glance at him for a moment.

Rex then continues, ”How did this get into you anyway”

After saying that, Rex started the procedure under the systemʼs guide.

But then suddenly, Rex widen his eyes when Edward said, ”I think itʼs Hans...”
