The Invincible Full-Moon System

Chapter 23: Defeating a Rank Three Supernatural

The lecturers are waiting on each end of the barrack, there is one lecturer each on the north, west, east, and south of the barrack while the muscular middle-aged lecturer is flying in the middle.

The muscular middle-aged man is sitting crossed legs above the center of the barracks, he is closing his eyes shut waiting for the test to be over.

On the south side of the barracks, the lecturer with fiery red hair is sitting quietly when suddenly she saw a big skeleton in the corner of her eyes emerged.

ROAAAR!!

She glances at the skeleton and saw a big skeletal dragon clawing its way through the ground, ʼFinally the first encounter with a rank three supernatural, Skeletal Dragonʼ, she thought with a little bit of anticipation in her eyes.

While she was intending to see the students who met with a Skeletal Dragon, she hears a scream, ”LECTURER HELP!!”

She stopped midtrack and lazily look at the source of the shout, ʼOnly a rank 2 skeleton? The first generation of Ochyra University is not looking goodʼ, she thought before she vanished from her spot to help the student in need.

Meanwhile,

ROAARR!!

The Skeletal Dragon burst from the ground, its body is so big that it is at least six times taller than Rex.

Just as the Skeletal Dragon burst from the ground, it is immediately hit by a fire beam from Lucas.

BOOOMM!!

The blast makes the ground tremble, the power from Lucasʼs attack is not something to underestimate.

Rex dashes to Rosie and Adhara while Adhara makes a fire shield around them to block the attack, the same goes for Lucas, his two subordinates make a barrier around them to shield them from the impact.

The blast sent a wave of a powerful gust of wind towards its surrounding,

CRACK!!

The force brought by the explosion makes Adhara gritted her teeth trying to hold on.

Looking at this, Rosie musters her remaining strength to add mana into the barrier trying to help Adhara.

The crack on the barrier started to close up with the help of Rosie, the barrier finally lasts as the black smoke covers their vision.

Adhara waves her hand to get rid of the barrier before falling to the ground, her mana is exhausted because of the blast.

The black smoke started to disperse revealing a bone dragon lying on the ground,

ʼWhat? A rank three supernatural fall just like that? That stone is probably an attack of a peak rank three Awakenedʼ, Rex thought after looking at the Skeletal Dragon.

Just as he was about to find Lucas, the Skeletal Dragon that is lying on the ground eyes lit up.

Rex was shocked, he jumped backward to back away from the dragon.

The Skeletal Dragon shook its body and stands back up, its movement is sluggish which implies that it is hurt.

Rex saw Lucas just behind the Skeletal Dragon with a haggard look, it seems like the two guys in his team cannot sustain their barrier from the explosion from before.

Blood leaked from the corner of Lucasʼs mouth as he holds his stomach in pain, He looks at Rex and turns his body intending to run away.

Rexʼs veins bulge when he saw Lucas is trying to run away, while he was intending to chase after Lucas, a dinging sound was heard.

Rex was in a daze, he got mixed emotions while reading the quest.

ʼThe Reward is really plenty but, as all people say high-risk high-reward, which means this Platchi family is very strong that makes the system give so much rewardʼ, he thought while looking at Lucasʼs back, ʼHe must die!ʼ

ROAAR!!

The Skeletal Dragon roar, the aura emitted by the dragon gives pressure to Rex. The dragon sweeps its tails in a circle, aiming for Lucas and Rex.

Swoooshh!

The dragon is focusing on Lucas because he is the one who hurt the dragon so naturally, the dragon hates him.

Looking at Lucas running, the two guys in Lucasʼs team also follow him.

Just as they were on a T-junction, the dragonʼs tail hit the three of them,

BAAM!

The dragonʼs tail is harder than Iron, their bones act as their main weapon and also defense.

The force brought by the tail is too much making them crash on the wall while spurting out blood.

Just as Rex wanted to praise the dragon, the tail sweep didnʼt stop at Lucas but continues in his direction.

Rex curse the dragon and looked to his back,

Rosie is lying on the ground while Adhara is kneeling on the ground with heavy breath, their faces are pale and they both look tired because of mana exhaustion.

Rex frowns, the distance between him and the girls is quite far. The tail sweep is nearing them and Rex didnʼt have the time to dash towards the girls. The lecturer will also not made it in time if he calls for help.

He decided to readies himself, he grits his teeth as his muscles bulge under his clothes. Rex musters all of his strength and lowers his stance to hug the dragonʼs tail that is coming at him.

Rex didnʼt feel confident in stopping the dragonʼs tail, he is doubting himself when suddenly.

A flash of his past where his mother and father dies while he canʼt do anything about it zips through his mind, his eyes turn bloodshot, ”I WILL NOT LET IT HAPPEN AGAIN!”

”Kaahkk!”, A huge force comes down to him just as he held the tail, he gritted his teeth so hard that it started to bleed.

The power from the tail is too much but Rex held it in, the life of Rosie and Adhara is in his hands!

Rex is being pushed back by the tail, he glances to his right and found that the tail is nearing Rosie and Adhara who helplessly look at the dragonʼs tail as if waiting for their deaths.

In the heat of the moment, Rexʼs adrenaline spiked.

”AAARRRHHH!!”, Rex stomp the ground heavily with his force beam and musters all his strength to stop the tail.

BOOMM!!

The ground cracked under Rexʼs feet, Rosie and Adhara thought that the enormous tail will hit them but to their surprise, the tail suddenly stopped in its track.

They slowly look at their left and saw Rex holding the tail with determination, their hearts flutter after seeing Rex doing his best to defend them.

Rex can easily dodge the tail sweep if he wants to do so but he takes the tail head-on risking his life just to save the both of them.

The dragon snapped its head to its back to look at the person who holds its tail, the dragon looks shocked when seeing Rex.

Rex looks at the dragon with a fierce gaze, unknown to him the aura on his back makes a terrifying figure.

Looking at the aura, the dragon steps back in fright.

Rexʼs reddish dark aura form a fierce werewolf that seems to look down on everything, the Skeletal Dragonʼs instinct is sending danger signals.

The supernatural is divided into ranks, the higher the ranks the more powerful the supernatural, and because of that the lower-rank supernatural develop a sense of natural fear towards higher ranking supernatural.

The Skeletal Dragon is obviously a lower-rank supernatural than a werewolf so its instinct jolted by Rexʼs aura, its body is frozen in fear.

Lucas who is lying on the ground while coughing blood canʼt believe what heʼs seeing, the mighty rank three Skeletal Dragon is showing fear in front of Rex!

ʼIMPOSSIBLE! I HAVE TO RUN!ʼ, he thought trying desperately to crawl his way out.

Rexʼs anger is swelling up inside of him, he notices the dragonʼs fear so he decided to use the opportunity to leap towards the dragonʼs chest.

He slipped through the dragonʼs rib cage and punch the blue heart located in the Skeletal Dragonʼs chest, the Skeletal Dragonʼs heart is blue in color and it is emitting a faint blue light. It is the weak point of a Skeletal Dragon, its source of power and life.

the dragon snapped out of its daze but it is too late,

SPLURTT!!

Rexʼs fist pierced right through the Skeletal Dragonʼs heart, blue blood burst everywhere.

Adhara jolted in shock when she saw Rex is piercing the Skeletal Dragonʼs heart with his bare hands, ”REX NO!! THE HEART WILL EXPLODE!!”, she screamed in fright.

Rex heard this but he is too late, the Skeletal Dragonʼs heart is already glowing bright blue. He tries to escape but his hands are stuck at the dragonʼs heart.

The energy around the heart is starting to condense, Rex closes his eyes when suddenly, the sound that can help him seeps into his ears.

BOOOMM!!

The dragonʼs heart exploded sending a fierce explosion of blue energy, the energy is condensed and it didnʼt travel so far but its destructiveness is doubled especially to the one who is near the heart like Rex.

Rex was blown away like a broken kite before he bounces from the ground leaving a crater in the ground.

His right hand is scorched, as he lies on the ground unmoving.

Rosie is unconscious on the ground while Adhara is stunt looking at Rex unmoving on the ground, ”REX!!!”, Adhara screamed on top of her lungs.

Tears started to flow down from her eyes, she canʼt help but blame herself because of her powerlessness she makes Rex suffer the consequences.

Just as she was crying, suddenly Rexʼs body shook.

Rex sit upright while scratching his back, ”Damn that hurt a lot”, he glances in the girlʼs direction and saw Adhara looking at him blankly.

Looking at Rex who is casually rubbing his back, Adhara was dumbfounded.

She saw that Rexʼs right hand is starting to heal although it is not fast it is still healing, She rubbed the tears off and threw her face away.

Rex caught Adharaʼs tear as he walks towards her.

Arriving in front of her, Rex asked, ”Are you okay?”, he said while rubbing Adharaʼs head.

Adhara felt touched, Instead of looking at his injuries, Rex immediately goes to her to ask about her injuries.

She replies, ”Iʼm okay, Iʼm just tired. I donʼt have any healing magic so let me do it manually”, she wanted to tend to Rexʼs injuries but Rex cut her off.

”Iʼm not done yet”, Rex said while looking in Lucasʼs direction.
