The Invincible Full-Moon System

Chapter 528: Receiving Dire News

Queen Shanaela and Seth were caught off guard when Arnulf suddenly took Calidora and leaped away, they didnʼt even manage to react to Arnulfʼs movement. In a fit of desperation, Queen Shanaela activated her nature energy once more.

With her eyes glowing with blinding golden light, she tries to dash at Arnulf but stopped.

Ellen who saw her about to leave put the pressure around her to the max before she leaped and slashes her sword right at Queen Shanaela. With her injured state and the pressure, Queen Shanaela tries to fight back Ellenʼs strength but failed.

The silvery energy that came from her outfit burns Queen Shanaelaʼs body upon getting too close.

Because of the stinging silver extract coming from the outfit given to them by Rex, Queen Shanaela got weakened even more and thus the pressure coming from the other Silverstar Awakened sent her crashing back to the ground.

Seth is a sixth-rank Vampire so he canʼt do anything in terms of fighting so he just stands down.

Using his red eyes to look around and inspects the situation, he finds the pack of Werewolves is led by four Alphas with one of them emitting mythical energy. This alone makes him frown, ʼDark Prince...ʼ

Realizing that these Werewolves are rogued ones, Seth memorized their faces using his keen eyes.

When Queen Shanaela was about to try once again to help Calidora, Seth suddenly tap her on the shoulder forcing a glance from her. Seth still kept his eyes on the Awakened that was distracted by the Werewolves before he said, ”Weʼll retreat back, things are getting out of hand”

”Then what about Calidora? Iʼm not going back without her!”

”Donʼt worry, she will be safe. As soon as she got teleported back, weʼll make a run for it”

Although a bit unconvinced, Queen Shanaela suddenly saw Calidoraʼs body glows with red light before she disappeared from the battlefield. This shows that what Seth said is true and this is their chance to escape.

Looking around she finds Ellenʼs attention is distracted by the Werewolves and Giana.

Giana is a ninth-rank Awakened after all so sheʼs really important to humanity, hearing her screaming like that definitely makes them worried about her well-being. When they were unsuspecting, Queen Shanaela grabs Seth before she points her sword at the Awakened on her back.

”Solar Ray!”

SWOOSH!

Despite being caught off guard, the Awakened activated their spirit energy and dodge the attack.

With the Awakened out of the way Queen Shanaela immediately gathers more energy into her legs before dashing away swiftly, the Silverstar Awakened tries to block her but got smashed away by her momentum.

Ellen heard this commotion but when she turns to look Queen Shanaela and Seth were already far.

Gritting her teeth angrily realizing that the situation has gotten out of hand, she then immediately dashes toward Giana who just clashes against Arnulf once again, ”Letʼs focus on helping Lady Giana escape, sheʼs in trouble!”

Like a unified group, the Silverstar Awakened follows after Ellen like a single body.

On the other side,

Clang!

Giana clashes against Arnulf that still has a playful smile on his face, the exchange rattled her chakrams despite her superior strength. When she was about to launch another attack, her injured leg stings her again dazing her for a second.

Upon seeing this, Arnulf immediately moves and manages to scratch her cheek.

Slash!

With her rampaging arcane energy, Giana points her palm at Arnulf before she quickly chants intending to push him away, ”Great Spell! Supreme Water Blast!”

Boom!

A splash of sharp water exploded from her palm pushing Arnulf away.

Landing about 30 feet away from Giana, Arnulfʼs feet planted to the ground softly without making a sound before he raises his gaze once again. But while looking at him warily, Giana finds that his claws are blazing with moonlight energy.

Giana touches her cheek and finds it bleeding from scratch.

Despite the disparity between their strength as one of them is at least in the eighth rank realm while the other is in the ninth rank realm, Arnulf manages to injure her using his claws which are supposed to be close to impossible.

In the record ever since the Supernatural Emergence, this has never happened before.

Ninth-rank Awakened has never been injured or scarred by those from lower ranks, even by a peak eighth-rank Awakened. Only another ninth rank Awakened or Supernatural can hurt them, but Arnulf can actually hurt her.

On top of the playful smile on Arnulfʼs face, itʼs clear that heʼs not normal.

From the way he talks and the conversation he had earlier, Giana can get a gist that Arnulf is a very old Werewolf that even the other Werewolves feared. Itʼs clear that this Werewolf is not normal.

”Lady Giana!”

Ellen and the other hundred of Silverstar Awakened landed right in front of Giana.

Upon seeing the state that Giana is in Ellen and the other Silverstar Awakened feels an impending worry in their hearts. If their opponents can injure Giana then killing them should be a piece of cake, but as an Awakened they know their duties.

”Are you okay, Lady Giana?”

”Iʼm managing... that Werewolf is different, weʼre retreating!”

”Okay! Everyone, weʼre going to cover Lady Gianaʼs back with our lives!”

With a determined and resolute tone, Ellen shouted to the others with an unbreakable expression.

No matter how dire the situation has turned, their main goal in this current situation is to let Giana escape so that she can fight another day. The moment the Blood Infant come is when the disaster starts.

Having little to no information about them, itʼs clear how they end up in this situation right now.

Giana didnʼt even say anything and instantly dashes away using nothing but flapping her wings of arcane mana, but even using that is a stretch as the contaminated arcane mana hurt her every time she uses too much arcane mana.

In addition to that, the contaminated leg starts to spread upwards. Slowly corrupting the rest.

Even though she has fought many times she has never encountered a situation like this. At most, she can keep running for a day or two before getting caught. And if adding the fight with the Werewolves, that time will only decrease.

After she dashes away, the Silverstar Awakened also dashes away leaving the Werewolves.

But when they were about a couple of dashes away from leaving the Werewolves, Ellen takes a glance back and saw two other Alphas step forward with Arnulf in the middle. Their intention is clear.

ʼItʼs going to be tough running away from them...ʼ

Ratmawati City, Sector 2.

With the fight between Adhara and Gistella ended, Rex now can focus back on creating the Lunar Dust Illusion for the incoming future. They got a little bit sidetracked because of Gistellaʼs blunder, but it doesnʼt take much time.

Upon getting out of the arena, Rex saw the receptionist still waiting patiently outside.

”Sir Rex, that was quite fast. Are you instructing your family members only?”, the receptionist bowed and asks politely seeing that Rex came out after about ten minutes.

Hearing this, Rex shrugs his shoulders nonchalantly, ”Yes, they are training now inside”

After replying to her Rex instantly walks back to the lobby while the receptionist kept following him. It seems sheʼs tasked to fulfill any needs he requires during his time here in the stadium. While walking towards the lobby, Rex rubs his chin as he looks around the empty place.

”Is the place always this empty? I booked the place but there are no workers here?”

”Ah... about that. S-Since youʼre the only one using the place today, the management decided to put me in charge of the stadium. We know that you donʼt like crowds, so I alone can help you with anything regarding the place”

Rex glances at the receptionist and finds her sweating bullets despite her polite smile.

It doesnʼt take a genius to find out that sheʼs obviously making excuses but then again sheʼs right about him not liking crowds. Upon reading the lobby, Rex glances around before he asks, ”Is there a place for food here?”

”T-There is! Please follow me”, the receptionist replied before leading him to the restaurant section.

Since this place is reserved for the top ten families, itʼs clear that the facilities here are complete. Rex steps into the red carpet of the restaurant section before he canʼt help but chuckle, ”Are you sure thereʼs food here? Iʼm guessing thereʼs no chef here too. I can just buy food from other places”

”W-What are you talking about? I told you I can p-provide anything you need!”

After saying that the receptionist hurriedly leads Rex to a table before signaling for him to sit down, she scans her eyes around before she quickly takes the menu book on a counter, ”What do you want to order, Sir?”

Rex briefly flipped over the menu book before he closed it back.

”Just prepare me whatever, Iʼm not that picky of an eater”

”C-Coming right up, Sir!”

With that, the receptionist quickly went to the kitchen to prepare food. Sheʼs obviously not a chef, Rex can see it clearly. But itʼs a little bit of entertainment at this kind of time, Rex didnʼt mind her at all.

The restaurant section has windows facing the street which gives quite a nightly scenery.

Since sector 2 is quite fortified with the majority of high-rank Awakened living in this part, Rex saw a couple of patrolling Awakened that flew over the street searching for any kinds of trespassing or even crimes.

Most of the crimes here came from the top ten families, someone needs to keep them in check.

Rex started dwelling on his thought following the flow of silence that encompassed the entire room, a silence is a place for meditation so itʼs not surprising that his mind started to wonder. One of his thoughts travels to the fight between Gistella and Adhara before.

From that fight, he just learned the power of Adharaʼs bloodline as an Anti-Werewolf.

Having an Exalted Royal Black Werewolf bloodline, Rex canʼt gauge exactly the power of the Anti-Werewolf bloodline. Most of the effects are nullified by his bloodline, but now he had witnessed it first-hand.

Itʼs safe to say that no Werewolf aside from him, the King of Werewolf, and the other Prince can withstand the power of the Anti-Werewolf bloodline. Only a handful of Werewolves.

Only the royal and the one accepted by the full moon can withstand the Anti-Werewolf bloodline.

ʼWith the addition of Evelyn as the Luna that can enhance our strength, my presence as a Prince that can make lesser Supernaturals sluggish, and Adharaʼs Anti-Werewolf bloodline, I wonder if we can defeat Arnulf and that Werewolf without me going berserk again...ʼ

But just as he thought of that, his phone in his inventory rang.

Rex takes out his phone from the inventory before checking the caller, it was Vargas.

ʼVargas...? Why is he calling me this late at night?ʼ

Not intending to let his phone ring for too long, Rex answered the call before putting the phone in his ear, ”Vargas, Whatʼs the important matter to call me during the night like this?”

”Sorry for disturbing you, but I need your help. Itʼs about Giana and your familyʼs Awakened...”

”What about them?”

”Although I donʼt know where youʼre getting your information about the Supernatural from, we both know that itʼs usually accurate. Giana and her team were tricked in Nuta City by a red translucent barrier that should be blood energy, itʼs an illusion that can even fool a ninth-rank Awakened. I wonder if you know something about that?”

Upon hearing this, Rex leans back on his chair with a pondering look.

ʼAn illusion made of blood energy... oh! Does he mean the one that Calidora did to the entire city that turned out to be an illusion that she made?ʼ

Remembering that incident, Rex nodded his head as Calidora should be the one behind it.

”I believe that is the new power of the Vampire Princess, Calidora. She has Awakened the Eyes of Terror and has myriads of ability, and one of them is that illusion you speak of”

”I see... so we have another troublesome Vampire”

But while Rex is still waiting for the continuation of the conversation, he can hear Vargasʼ background is filled with people talking. Itʼs even classified as chaotic by Rexʼs standard, and from how high Vargas is in the UWO he should have his own office.

Itʼs weird for him to have such a crowd in the background shouting at each other.

Out of nowhere, a womanʼs voice came from the background that Rex recognize as Lindaʼs voice.

”Sir Vargas, with the condition of the demon stronghold itʼs hard to find a ninth-rank Awakened to help Lady Giana. We can only send a couple of platoons of seventh rank Awakened to assist her”

”Are you serious?! Call the available eighth rank Awakened and send them all there!”

”I understand, sir... Iʼll do as you say”

From his few interactions with Vargas, Rex has never heard him this flustered before. It definitely piqued his interest when he heard Gianaʼs name being brought up, ”Sir Vargas, If I may... whatʼs the situation youʼre dealing with for the UWO office to be in such turmoil?”

Hearing this, Vargas was silent for a moment before he finally sighs.

”Lady Giana and the Awakened from your family was sent yesterday, they encounter the illusion but finally met with the Vampire Army. All are going well but the appearance of the creature summoned by the Blood Devourer changed that, it managed to injure Lady Giana heavily right before its death”

”If the creature is dead, Lady Giana can come back and gets treated right?”

”No, thereʼs another problem...”

Rexʼs ears perked up waiting for Vargas to continue,

”She was ambushed by a pack of Werewolves led by more than one Alphas, theyʼre still on the run as we speak right now. Weʼre trying to help but the condition in the Demon Stronghold is escalating. At this rate, it seems President Sebrof needs to help Giana personally...”

Upon hearing this, Rex immediately stood up and knocked his chair back in the process.

Hearing the dire situation that is the cause of the UWO officeʼs turmoil, Rexʼs expression turns from calm into an absolute shock as he canʼt control his expression anymore, ”W-What...!?”
