The Invincible Full-Moon System

Chapter 724: Selfish Last Hope

Meanwhile, oblivious to the events occurring to Rex.

Brigitta was devastated mentally from prostrating and apologizing to the Executor in public.

Even though there are not many onlookers left, killed, and obliterated by the powerful shockwaves created from clashes between ninth-rank realm entities, the survivors are all strong Awakened and they all have a high standing in humanity.

It was precisely because of that Brigitta was ashamed and devastated to let them look at her.

As one of the highest protectors of humanity, her knees should be unbending. Her willpower should be tough as iron, and her spirit should be unbreakable. But in front of the Executor, in front of real power, she was overwhelmed and was forced to bend her knees.

The Executor didnʼt say it to her straightforwardly, but he hinted at her and she gets it instantly.

No matter how much pride she has, no matter how much she was not fearful of death, she can tell just by looking at the Executorʼs eyes that if she doesnʼt do what she did, the Executor wouldʼve probably butchered her and also the survivors for the sake of establishing his standing in this world.

Despite coming from ancient times, the Executor is a human too at the end of the day.

If one was thrust into a new era without anyone except for themselves, they are bound to seek the position one takes in this world. As the Executor was evidently the strongest, the highest seat would definitely be the position he seeks.

What better way in achieving that than making a ninth-rank realm Awakened kneel before him?

Moreover, he had just killed another ninth-rank realm Awakened before he makes the other one kneel and apologize to him. If anyone were to see this, they would automatically know that the hierarchy of power has changed.

Only true power can do something like this, only an overwhelming power can insinuate this.

For those who donʼt have the true power that the Executor has, they would need to adapt to the world or era that they wake up in. But for the Executor, it was the other way around, the world need to adapt to him.

Slowly raising her gaze, Brigitta saw the Executor turns away and head to Rex.

Looking at the situation that she was currently in, she was starting to fear that president Sebrofʼs decision to awaken the Executor is a bad idea. The Executor doesnʼt view other humans as the same race, he views other humans as Lesser Humans.

From this way of thinking alone, the Executor sounds troubled. And Brigitta knows that clearly.

ʼIf it werenʼt for Orson, we donʼt need to fight against Rex. If thereʼs no fight then this wouldnʼt have happened. Please... I believe you can make a change, donʼt die here. Do something, Rex!ʼ Brigitta exclaimed inside her head, hoping for a much-needed miracle to come at this exact time.

Knowing the strength of the Executor, she knew that Rex is the only hope they have.

Orson was a very powerful Awakened from the neighboring major city, he was the one that has killed a Heavenly Dragon that rampage near his city. But even though he was an exceptional Awakened, he was killed by the Executor with relative ease.

With this alone, Brigitta knows that there was nobody that can be a match for the Executor.

Even right now, she was trying her hardest to believe that Rex can somehow match the Executorʼs strength. If anyone was to do it, he would definitely be that person. Brigitta looks at the kneeling Rex as her eyes glimmer with hope.

It was them that unleashed the Executor, but it was also them that wanted Rex to get rid of it.

Rex wouldʼve probably cursed humanity to their ancestor if he knows that Brigitta was hoping that he would clean up the mess that was brought awake by humanity, but then again thereʼs nothing he can do except resist.

ʼPlease, Rex! Live and keep our hopes alive!!ʼ Brigitta exclaimed in her mind once again.

As soon as she thought of that, her eyes glisten seeing a sign of life can be seen in Rex. A flash of fierceness can be seen burning inside his eyes, he looks up at the Executor before marvelous red kingly energy burst from his body and increase the intensity of the air to the highest degree.

Coming out of nowhere, power returns to Rexʼs body and amplifies him with great strength.

Numerous parts of Rexʼs skin started cracking and exposing a red light that makes him look like the incarnation of anger itself, the energy coming from him was chokingly powerful, and even the Executor seems to be wary of his power.

Under the gaze of Brigitta who is watching this from behind, the kingly energy shone brighter.

ʼWhatʼs this...? The air around me, itʼs holding me in place! Itʼs like the space around me was sucking from all directions!ʼ Brigitta cries inside her head. She wanted to move, knowing that Rex was about to do a devastating attack, but she canʼt do anything as her body was not able to move.

It was naught for a moment, time seems to slow down as Brigittaʼs eyes fixed on Rex.

Rex swung his fist to punch the Executor with all of the power coursing through his body, the punch is supposed to be very fast, but Brigitta can see it clearly taking space after space before it stopped a couple of inches away from the Executorʼs crossed arms.

Warm air brushes against her cheek as the kingly energy becomes more violent.

Soon she saw weird writings crawl into existence from the tip of Rexʼs fist, and they spread violently. Brigitta can feel the dimension around them shaking, she tries to break free from the immobilizing shackle with her power to no avail.

During her helpless attempt, a powerful red beam blast sot forward with gushing power.

Unobstructable to anything that stands in its way, the red beam blast envelops the entirety of the Executorʼs body and also carved a burning straight line that reaches miles and miles away, piercing through the Great Barricade.

ʼWhere did he get this much power from?!ʼ Brigitta shouted in her mind out of complete shock.

A moment ago she saw Rex was completely wounded and exhausted. But in the next second, he was capable of doing this kind of attack that is the most powerful attack that Brigitta has ever seen in her entire life.

Her surprise was short-lived, and a smile appeared on her face in return.

The red beam blast pierces through the space a couple of yards away on Brigittaʼs right, she was spared from Rexʼs attack. If she was hit directly by the blast then she wouldʼve been completely obliterated, she was not confident that she can sustain that attack with her own power.

Even if she managed to survive, a direct hit from that blast would probably cripple her for life.

What seem to be an eternity happened in a couple of seconds.

Brigitta was caught in surprise when she saw the Executor being pushed back by the red beam blast, passing her completely. But then, the Executor uses his power and disperses the red beam blast with a wave of his hand.

Crash!

Once again the Executor surprises everyone with his power.

The powerful attack was surprising enough for the onlookers, but the power that is able to disperse that attack is another surprise. It was the realm of the highest, not many entities in the entire world can match these two monsters right now.

With a quick glancing motion, Brigitta gazes back at where Rex was.

Upon seeing the place where he was before empty, the smile on Brigittaʼs face curled even wider. ʼIt was just a hopeful thought, but it seems heʼs really our only chance of getting rid of the Executor. We still have hope...ʼ

As she thought of that, the Executor straightens his back in shock knowing that Rex has escaped.

Just a moment later, the entire place has been a lay waste.

The Executor looks at the horizon in a daze, nobody knows what he was thinking right now. Soon enough, he turned his torso towards Brigitta before he said with a commanding tone, ”Lead me to the heart of humanity, Iʼll see whoʼs in charge of humanity in this current era”

”O-Okay...” Brigitta replied docile, hiding her despise from the Executor.

While Brigitta was leading the Executor to go through the destroyed Great Barricade walls, she tries to not make eye contact with anyone. Aside from shame, she also doesnʼt want to bring the Executorʼs attention to the survivors and make their lives worse.

Amongst the survivors, Jasira and Ryze can also be seen, riddled with wounds on the side.

Looking at the Executor who is also looking straight despite the fearful gaze from the other survivors glued onto him, Jasira slowly pulls Ryze back and tries to cover him with her body, it was an instinctive response.

”Teacher Jasira, what are you doing?” Ryze whispers with a frown on his face.

Signaling for Ryze to keep quiet lest the Executor turns to look their way, she quickly replied also in a whispering tone, ”Keep your mouth shut and donʼt look into his eyes until he left if you donʼt want to die, trust me on this”

While she was saying this, she unconsciously held her breath and so does Ryze.

Out of sheer fear and horror from the Executorʼs display of power, the other survivors, eighth-rank realm Awakened and a few seventh-rank realms Awakened averted their gazes away, and they also dare not to move even a muscle as the Executorʼs footsteps reverberated to the surroundings.

None of them dares to look at the Executorʼs terrifying appearance and presence for too long.

Jasira and Ryze also keep their gaze down with their hearts thumping like a war drum, hoping that the Executor would quickly leave the place so that they can finally breathe easily. Every step was like an eternity passed, and eventually, Brigitta and the Executor flew away.

Swoosh!

Beautiful wings appeared on Brigittaʼs back before she flew away, followed by the Executor.

From the looks of it, the two of them are heading toward Ratmawati City. Brigitta is probably going to bring the Executor to meet with president Sebrof, and the outcome of their meeting is something that many donʼt want to know.

If president Sebrof was killed by the Executor, then they would really become helpless.

Just from a couple of flaps of their wings, the two disappear in the sky and the survivors can finally breathe easily and stands up. Ryze who was hiding behind Jasiraʼs body even though his body is now bigger went up to her side and asks, ”I-Is there a reason why I-I should hide behind you?”

”Didnʼt you hear what the Executor said earlier to the Silverstar Pack Alpha?” Jasira asked.

Looking at the spot in the shattered sky where Brigitta and the Executor has disappeared to, Jasira glanced over at Ryze before she added, ”The Executor hates the Silverstar Pack Alpha the most because of tainting the human race by mixing it with others, if thatʼs the case then the Executor would also hate you for having a Dragonman bloodline inside of you.

From my view, you are not sensed by the Executor, and killed is already a miracle”

Upon hearing this, Ryze can feel his throat tighten, realizing that he had got lucky.

”I-Itʼs that so...” He mutters with obvious fear depicted in his face.

Not long after, Brigitta and the Executor pierce the sky and near the UWO Main Office in a couple of minutes to meet with president Sebrof. But instead of going to the UWO Main Office, the Executor shifted his direction.

Realizing this, Brigitta stopped and looks at the Executor that descends down with a frown.

Looking at sector 2 which was still in the rebuilding process from the destruction caused by Rex, the Executor crossed his arms in front of him while looking around. ”If itʼs okay to ask, why are we stopping? The leader of humanity is in that direction” Brigitta asked while pointing in a direction.

”Donʼt be arrogant, Iʼm not going to come to your lowly leader” the Executor replied.

The Executor didnʼt even glance at Brigitta while saying this, but then he continues, ”Tell your lowly leader to come and meet me in my castle, thereʼs much to discuss. Also, tell him that time wasted will displease me”

But this makes Brigitta frowns, ”Your castle...? Where is it?”

”Well that, I was about to build it right now” the Executor replied with a smirk on his face.

”What...?”
