The Invincible Full-Moon System

Chapter 698: Accurate Representation

Specifically reminded to act as an accurate representation of Rex, Adhara walks in with a strong posture and demeanor while simultaneously still showing respect to the King of this place, the one sitting on the throne.

Despite being an accurate representation, she still needs to pay her respect with a slight bow.

Even though Adhara introduced herself politely as the Female Alpha of the Silverstar Pack, King Jorikʼs mind is still not connected yet as his attention was seized by the glowing mark on Adharaʼs forehead.

Itʼs a mark that he has never seen or even heard that matters.

As a lower-rank Supernatural race, itʼs their duty to know and learn the culture and history of the higher-rank Supernatural races, he knows that a respectable Werewolf would have King Mark on their forehead.

Upon reaching the first ascension, they can share their powers through Herald Mark.

Normal Herald Mark would that a shape of a facing-up crescent moon and glowing with the associated full moonʼs color, but the one on Adharaʼs forehead is not only shaped like that. Her Herald Mark is also similar in shape but has a red dot inside the curves of the crescent moon.

In addition to that, there are two crescent moons stacked against each other instead of just one.

The skin around the Herald Mark also got smeared by the red color of the Blood Moon, showing that itʼs a Herald Mark given by a prince. King Jorik doesnʼt find the red smear confusing, the dot inside of the crescent moon is a thing that he has never seen.

Snapping out of his daze, King Jorik blinks his eyes and looks at Adhara.

”I didnʼt know the Silverstar Pack has a Female Alpha, itʼs a pleasure to meet you lady Adhara” King Jorik replied modestly, he gave a slight nod to show his acknowledgment. ”I reckon the matters we are going to discuss are important for you to come here yourself” he added.

As the Dark Elves are stationed in the Humming Damned Forest, communication is not a problem.

If the Silverstar Pack wanted to inform any message to King Jorik or the Dark Elf Kingdom in general, they can just call out one of the Dark Elves to send a message. But instead, Adhara came here herself.

”Yes, thereʼs a good reason as to why I came here myself” Adhara replied and paused.

Structuring the words inside her head calmly, she then informs in a straightforward manner of what Rex has told her earlier before her departure here, ”All of the Dark Elves in the Humming Damned Forest are dead, thatʼs the reason why I came here myself”

Upon hearing this, King Jorik was surprised but his expression only twitched a bit.

Even the guards that are inside the throne room were surprised to hear this matter, they subconsciously glanced at Adhara that delivered such blatant news. Something that can easily be misunderstood.

Not wanting to jump to a conclusion, King Jorik let Adhara finish to clear up the situation.

”A rogue cursed creature is roaming the Humming Damned Forest. The Alpha has confirmed himself of its presence, he finds the equipment and gears of the Dark Elves hidden from our senses which shows that the cursed creature we are dealing with is an intelligent one” Adhara explained the situation clearly.

King Jorik keep silent when he heard this very bad news.

Although itʼs true that the Dark Elf Kingdom is placed by the high-rank Supernatural races here beside the Humming Damned Forest to keep the cursed creatures inside of it in check, the Dark Elves donʼt dare to wander inside of it recklessly.

The forest still hides a million mysteries, and they are not up to uncovering those mysteries.

Only due to the alliance the Dark Elf Kingdom has with the Silverstar Pack that King Jorik finally issues an order to sweep the Humming Damned Forest, and the report that came back doesnʼt really make him worry.

Itʼs been discovered that the strongest cursed creatures are not hostile.

Cursed creatures that are under the seventh-rank epiphany were the ones that are quite hostile to the surroundings, but the Dark Elves that are sent there are equipped to handle them with ease. Nothing shouldʼve gone wrong, so this news came and hit like a truck.

”Every single one of them is dead?” King Jorik asked again to confirm.

Adhara nodded her head firmly, Rex said that the gears and equipment he found are many which show that the Dark Elves stationed in the forest are all dead. If thereʼs a surviving one, he/she should go back to the Kingdom or at least report to him.

But no Dark Elf reported to Rex, and King Jorik doesnʼt seem to know about this matter either.

Contemplating the situation in his mind, King Jorik then raises his gaze and said, ”If what youʼre saying is true, then this rogue cursed creature shouldnʼt be from the Humming Damned Forest. Intelligent cursed creatures is a myth, only a very powerful curse can create an intelligent cursed creature”

”Our people will have to see the remains in order to track the cursed creature” he added.

Upon hearing this Adharaʼs eyes glisten as she quickly said, ”On that note, the Alpha has requested for a Dark Elf called Qonvale to come to the castle. If you would be so kind, allow Qonvaleʼs visit to the castle, the Alpha wants to consult about some things”

As per Rexʼs instruction, Gistellaʼs state would be kept a secret.

Thereʼs no need for them to publicize and shared the sick condition of Gistella, one of the few members under the Silverstar Pack. It would be foolish for them to let others know, and thus Rex told Adhara to ask for Qonvale by using the rogue cursed creature as the smokescreen.

A perfect excuse for them to ask to meet with Qonvale.

Of course, Qonvale would be asked to check on Gistellaʼs condition and share her expertise. But Rex would make sure that she wonʼt tell a single soul of Gistellaʼs condition through methods that Adhara is unfamiliar with.

”It can be arranged, but the visit canʼt be more than a day. Qonvale is an asset of the kingdom”

But before Adhara can reply King Jorik also asked to ease the questions that are poking at his back due to the complaints from the noble families, ”If weʼre done with that matter, I also have something to discuss if Lady Adhara is willing to listen”

”Please, itʼs the least I can do” Adhara replied instantly without much thought.

King Jorik nodded his head before he asked in seek of the truth, ”Noble families under me have reported the incident during the fight at the Tigerman race capital city, they are concerned about the fact that the Alpha told them to retreat instead of helping them exterminating the Tigerman race.

I request an official answer for this, my kingdom did lose a considerable amount of people in that fight and has the right to know the reason behind his action”

As the fight happened, the noble families reported that the Alpha has come to help Sir Flunra.

If the Alpha is here then he couldʼve just wiped out a considerable amount of the Tigerman race and also King Samobas himself. But instead, he ordered the Dark Elves and Dwarves to retreat while also sparing King Samobas and the Tigerman race.

Something like that is not a part of the agreement, and the Dark Elves demanded an answer.

But as if she was already anticipating this, Adhara smiled while she keeps her eyes on King Jorik, ʼWell, Rex has told me that they would ask of this. Itʼs scary sometimes just how calculative he is in regard to everythingʼ she thought.

”Our alliance agreement is a collective security, and the Tigerman race is a threat, yes?” Adhara replied.

King Jorik nodded his head, the Tigerman race is a threat to their safety.

It was the whole point of bringing the Tigerman matter to the Silverstar Pack since if the Tigerman race won and report them to the high-rank Supernatural races, then the Dark Elves would be in trouble of an attack.

And if thereʼs a possibility of that happening, the Silverstar Pack is obliged to help them.

Slowly the smile on Adharaʼs face grew which makes King Jorik frowns, ”If security is the problem, then the Silverstar Pack has already guaranteed your security. The Tigerman race is not a threat anymore, you donʼt need to be worried”

”What do you mean? We should exterminate them all” King Jorik rebutted in confusion.

But Adhara didnʼt need a second as she instantly replied while shaking her head, ”It seems thereʼs a misunderstanding here, we are agreed to become allies in security matters. But the Silverstar Packʼs goal is an entirely different thing, we are creating a nation where humans and Supernaturals can co-exist”

”Tigerman race is a willing recruit, and we have plans for them” she added confidently.

King Jorik was surprised to hear this, he was not expecting this kind of response. But what she said is true, they did only agree on an alliance through collective security, not in their entirety which means each side can still have its own objectives.

Pausing for a moment, King Jorik then said, ”Itʼs futile, they canʼt be recruited, even through force”

”Who says weʼre going to recruit and dominate them through force...?” Adhara replied with a mysterious smile, the smile puts a shiver on King Jorikʼs spine as he can feel the evilness behind that smile.

Not only him, but the guards inside the room can also feel the weight of her words.

ʼJust how can they turn a loyalist to the Supernatural races into a willing recruit under their new nation? Itʼs impossible but the Silverstar Pack is also not quite normal themselves...ʼ King Jorik thought silently.

But then he finally asked, ”Can you vouch that the Tigerman race is no longer a threat?”

”Yes, we, the Silverstar Pack can vouch that they will no longer be a threat. If somehow they went into disarray then weʼll take responsibility, but I doubt that since the Alpha is quite confident in his plan” Adhara finally said, showing the confidence that she saw in Rex when he said that the plan is going to work.

With that the meeting ended, leaving King Jorik speechless about the situation.

~

Two days have passed ever since the battle at the capital city of the Tigerman race.

Rex has spent his days learning and training the Brutal Impulse moon ability but he has not gained any substantial process, this is the hardest skill that he has ever tried to master. Usually, it only takes a few seconds thanks to the systemʼs instant learning.

But now this moon ability requires real finesse and hard work which he has but not the time for it.

Knowing that thereʼs no more time to waste, Rex decided that he would be taking the risk of confronting the humans about Kyranʼs whereabouts while the opportunity is still there. Of course, heʼs going to visit the stronghold that Brigitta is guarding.

Flurna said that they went through there, so Brigitta must know of Kyranʼs whereabouts.

”Iʼll leave you in charge of the castle for a bit, Evelyn. Keep an eye on Gistella and Naela, and quickly notify me if something happened, okay?” Rex said while he was gearing up, he bought a couple of equipment from the systemʼs shop.

Only armor, he doesnʼt need to buy a weapon thanks to the Amuerus Katana and Silver Eye.

Upon hearing this Evelyn nodded her head before she gives a light peck on Rexʼs cheek, ”Iʼve never been the baby-sitting type, but I understand. Just come back safely, I wouldnʼt know what to do if something happened to you”

”Donʼt worry, Iʼm not going to die just yet” Rex replied before he messed up Evelynʼs blazing hair.

As he was leaving the bed chamber to meet up with Flunra and Adhara who are already at the great hall, Evelyn frowned when she heard Rexʼs reply, ʼYet...? What did he mean by yet? Is he planning to die at some point?ʼ

Looking at Rexʼs back that is leaving the chamber, she frowned as a worry arises inside her heart.
