The Invincible Full-Moon System

Chapter 1298: A Few Sweet Lines

As promised, Rex brought back immense liters of blood that could make up a massive pool.

He wanted to use it back in the city but now that he was here, why wait?

In excitement, Calidora asked for a room from the Dwarven attendants and prepared the bathtub herself starting from the blood itself and even the decoration. A chance like this would not come by every day, this was her reward for helping Rex turn Caraptaros.

Her method of doing so annoyed Rex, but he couldnʼt deny that it helped.

Now that his plan worked fantastically, he was also in a good mood to try things out.

”Are you ready...?” Calidora approached near—and cupped Rexʼs face with both hands, her eyes radiated like a pair of stars—her excitement was palpable. Luxuriating in a blood bath was one of her favorite activities back when she was cramped in the castle.

Added with Rex accompanying her? Itʼs a hundred times better.

Rex can feel her excitement permeating into him, but there are things distracting him.

Looking down, he gulped at the sight of Calidoraʼs attires.

Since they were going to soak themselves in blood, and relax, she was wearing a darker tone red loose-fitting towel robe, highlighting her deadly curves underneath. One of her shoulders was exposed from raising her arms and cupping Rexʼs face.

It made her cleavage, firm and smooth to tantalize the eyes.

Man, I canʼt remember a thing from that night. I canʼt even remember her being naked.

Rex cursed himself, he couldnʼt believe he had forgotten such an important event.

Hadnʼt the System confirmed that it was his child, he wouldʼve suspected this as an evil ploy.

But it was not.

Realizing where Rexʼs eyes were directed at, Calidora put down her arms and pivoted—to the side, hugging herself, and hiding her curves from the naughty eyes, ”Weʼre going to relax, not do that... besides, Iʼm pregnant, what would doing that achieve?”

”What would that achieve?” Rex muttered, grabbing and pulling her waist. ”Satisfaction”

Feeling her face burning from Rex being daring and close, she pulled away.

Calidora sat on the edge of the bathtub, a big hexagonal-shaped bathtub—that was already filled to the brim with blood. She plunged her hand into the water before it glowed subtly—a phenomenon that lasted a moment.

However, as soon as that finished, the bloodʼs color became more vibrant.

In addition to that, the water was also steaming slightly.

”Come, itʼs ready,” Calidora gestured, glancing back at Rex, who was only wrapped in a towel around his waist. ”I use a spell to make the water help with blood circulation. Itʼs a weak spell used solely for relaxing so disperse your energy and let it influence you”

Then, Calidora rose to her feet and gracefully dipped one leg into the warm—red water.

A soft, unintentional moan slipped from her lips, her body welcoming the soothing heat.

She eased her other leg in—moving with deliberate slowness toward the center of the pool. Her crimson robe floated lightly on the surface behind her, creating an ethereal aura around her, making her look like a tainted ghost.

For some reason, her appearance threw Rexʼs mind back when he first saw her in the mirror.

Back then, she also looked like a beautiful ghost.

Upon reaching the center, she glanced over her shoulder at Rex, her expression unreadable.

Making an effortless motion, her slender fingers slipped the robe from her body, revealing a smooth—jade-like back. The crimson fabric dissolved into the blood-tinted water, vanishing completely.

Calidora then lowered herself into the pool.

She sank until only her eyes remained above the surface before turning around.

Her ink-blank hair floated and created a shadow around her head.

Both of her crimson eyes, a similar color to Rexʼs eyes—stared profoundly at Rex before she whispered, ”Arenʼt you going to come in with me? If you stand there, how would you be able to achieve satisfaction?”

Rex felt his throat dry, his animal side was being played at.

Or maybe, Calidora wasnʼt aware of the effect her natural grace had on his gaze.

”Donʼt say things you donʼt mean,” Rex said, shaking his head—and took off his towel.

He exposed his bare skin and stepped closer to the bath tub.

Looking down at the steaming blood water, Rex paused for a second, he had bathed in blood before this on the battlefield but not so much like this. He didnʼt know how to explain it, but it felt different.

Inhaling deeply, he stepped into the bathtub and lowered himself into it.

Expecting the metallic coldness of blood, instead, warmth enveloped his entire body.

Despite being able to see, that the blood water was steaming, it was hard to tell if it was true or not in his realm of power. Steaming doesnʼt mean hot anymore. Just like Kyranʼs ice, it was not cold but scorching.

But this steam was true, the water was mildly hot.

Rex could feel the water was not as thick as blood, thinner, massaging his skin—as he sank deeper into its embrace. Its heat wrapped around him, it wasnʼt the grotesque sensation he had anticipated—it was oddly calming.

Out of everything, the scent surprised him the most.

He knew that it was not the iron tang of fresh blood or something repugnant, it was fragrant and sweet—but the intensity was completely different now that he was in it. The more times he breathed in, the more it felt like a balm to his senses, pleasant and calming, a teat—to his nose definitely.

Just like Calidora said, his blood flow became smoother, and his muscles eased in response.

It was so opposite to what he had expected, and he surrendered to the strange comfort.

As opposed to jumping at Calidora for provoking him, Rex leaned back on the edge, gazing at the ceiling, and closed his eyes to bask in this comfort. For a solid ten minutes, he stayed like that and appreciated the moment.

Calidora was also leaning on the edge opposite of him.

”So...? Care to tell me how it went?” She asked.

Upon hearing this, Rex remained motionless and answered, ”As I planned, Carapators worked and the others won—against the opposing pack by themselves. I battled the Honey Princess, the Demon Prince, and the Storm Prince—and won easily. As expected, the Yule God pitched to take me down but I too, prevailed in the end”

”I didnʼt expect that God to bring me to his realm though, thatʼs that” He added plainly.

Anyone who achieved such a feat would be boasting.

Even their generations to come would boast of being a descendant of that person.

But for Rex, it was almost as if he was telling a regular day.

It was not surprising though—Calidora had full faith in him to win any confrontation.

”Whatʼs next?” She asked, curious about his answer.

Once again, Rex didnʼt need to think as he already thought of that, ”I still need to do a couple of things, training mostly, I donʼt think Iʼll make any move in the next week or even a month, it depends on the situation”

”Let me rephrase my question,” Calidora corrected. ”Whoʼs next?”

”Void and the Fourthborn, Iʼll be taking those two out,” Rex replied with certainty.

Considering the Angels were rampaging through the continent and spreading their influence, he did not need to make contact with them, as their intention, was obviously bad. Other than that, he also still needs to consider Chaos and the Fourthborn.

”I heard about this Void, do you think you can beat him?” Calidora asked. ”I know you have a powerful drive that made you reach the apex of strength, a scar that kept on bleeding—only healed through becoming stronger. But unless I missed my guess, Void also has it”

Upon hearing this, Rex chuckled in hubris, opening his eyes to look at Calidora.

”Are you doubting me?” He asked, sneering.

Calidora touched her belly, ”Iʼm just checking if I could trust you to keep me and this safe”

”Nothing in this world could deter me from doing anything to keep both of you safe, nothing. If anything were to happen to both of you, then assume that Iʼm dead already,” Rex replied— his tone laced with merciless conviction.

He then leaned back again, ”Besides, this Void is powerful, powerful enough to be the threat, right after the Fourthborn. There must be something driving him to push this far, so you must be correct. After all the years he and his Angels spent in hiding, his only aim was survival and rising to the top.

But I sense a trace of selfishness in his move, he is merely fighting—to keep himself alive while I, on the other hand, am already dead,”

”With a mindset like his, how could even hope to win against me?” Rex added leisurely.

Not expecting a lengthy answer, Calidora was caught off guard.

But she frowned as she didnʼt understand what Rex meant by he was dead already.

Seemingly to realize that he said wrong, Rexʼs eyes mildly widened.

Just before she could ask—Rex peeked at her and asked, ”By the way, why are you far away from me? I heard Evelyn—and Adhara calling you a wicked bitch so why are you acting like a shy girl now? Kindly behave like a bitch again”

”W- Wha-?” Calidoraʼs mouth was agape. ”Iʼm not a wicked bitch!”

Upon hearing her getting mad, Rex cackled, it was rare for her to be angry like this.

Seeing that Rex was not taking her seriously—she rebutted, ”A bitch is someone—who threw herself at every man she met. I didnʼt fit that category, because I was a virgin when you did it with me. If you could remember, youʼd know that Iʼm telling the truth!”

”If anything, Iʼm your bitch—I only threw myself at you,” She added, clicking her tongue.

Despite her being annoyed at Rex, what she said did the opposite.

Splash!

Out of nowhere, Calidoraʼs eyes widened when a force pulled her across the bathtub.

She raised her gaze and realized that she was already in Rexʼs embrace.

”Be honest with me, do they give special lessons in the vampire courts on how to daze a man with a few sweet lines?” Rex asked, staring intently with his face very close—to Calidoraʼs. ”If not, then you must have a talent for this,”

Before Calidora could answer, her face reddened.

She felt something poking her inside the water.

Without any warning, Rex seized Calidora, pulling her into a fierce, unrelenting kiss.

His lips crashed against hers—taking what he wanted with raw intensity. He ravaged her lips that tasted like cherries, claiming them as his own as she proclaimed earlier, each movement filled with fiery hunger.

Calidoraʼs initial surprise melted away, and soon she was caught in the storm.

Her eyes smoldered as she instinctively responded, letting herself be swept up in the heat of the moment. Their lips danced in a fevered exchange—igniting and pleasuring every nerve. It was only when Rex was satisfied with her lips did he moved to her neck—the breath from his mouth hot against her skin.

”Are you a Vampire now? It tickles” She complained but let him do what he wanted anyway.

Rex left fiery trails of kisses, possessively marking her flawless neck as his own.

Both of their bodies pressed tightly together beneath the warm blood water, shivering with the charged energy between them—entangled in the heat of the moment. It was becoming hotter and hotter by the second.

It was almost—as if the blood water was responding to their heated dwellings.

Serving their fiery exchange, Calidora wrapped her arms around Rexʼs neck.

Despite seeing no point in this, she decided to accept it.

Now she could see the point—if this intimacy would satisfy Rex, then she would try and do it.

Just then, the blood water became scorching hot, responding to the climbing intensity.

Perhaps, too responsive without any external influence.

Rex pulled away and looked down to the blood water, the same goes with Calidora, realizing that the water was bubbling, from the heat. It was only then did Calidora pulled Rex towards her chest, grinning playfully, ”Oh, it seems like we got visitors...”

Adhara and Gistella stood near the entrance, and Adhara in particular had a murderous look plastered across her face. She has her hand stretched forward, she was the one turning the bathtub into a hot pot.
