The Invincible Full-Moon System

Chapter 641: Sniping a Human?

Kyran dashes through the forest with his senses put to the max.

But instead of going to the western part of the Humming Damned Forest, he went to the north. Despite telling Gistella that heʼs going to hunt some cursed creatures, itʼs clear now that heʼs lying, he wasnʼt going to hunt in the first place.

ʼItʼs cleared completely, as expected of Rexʼ, Kyran thought with a nod.

Since clearing the northern part of the Humming Damned Forest is being done by Rex, he hasnʼt seen any cursed creature roaming around. Not even one despite already nearing the edge of the forest, he cleared them all in a couple of days which is astonishing knowing how big the forest is.

Even for Kyran and Adhara, mapping the western part of the forest needs two days.

Both of them need to take a safer approach and mapped the places that they needed to clear. After doing that then they can start clearing the cursed creature, but it seems Rex takes another approach and just bulldozed through the obstacles.

Upon reaching the cliff that bordered the forest and the Dark Elfʼs territory, Kyran stopped.

ʼI infiltrated their territory yesterday, and I only saw fewer people inside their Kingdom than expected. I assumed that they were active during the day just like the elves. But now, I donʼt knowʼ, Kyran thought as he can sense only twelve Dark Elves scattered in the forest beyond the cliff.

During Kyranʼs infiltration yesterday, there are only a few Dark Elves in their Kingdom.

Since the Kingdom itself which resides on a huge dark tree is big enough to probably house around five to ten thousand Dark Elves, he thought that most of the Dark Elves are outside doing their things but now heʼs unsure.

With such a high approximate number, the Dark Elves guarding the territory is lower than expected.

Although these twelve Dark Elves are hidden amongst the tree and canʼt be seen with the naked eye as they are using some kind of spell that stealth their bodies, Kyran doesnʼt have regular senses as he can pinpoint exactly where the twelve Dark Elves are hiding.

Knowing their position, Kyranʼs body slowly blended with the shade of the forest and disappears.

Taking advantage of the shade made by the forest canopy that blocked the bright sunlight, Kyran went through the watches of the twelve Dark Elves without a hitch. None of them sensed him going through the forest and infiltrating them.

If Sebrof and the other ninth-rank realm arenʼt able to sense him, these Dark Elves stood no chance.

Just about twenty minutes later Kyran has already passed the eyes of more than a hundred Dark Elves that are acting like a scout. But even with that number, he still thinks that itʼs still on the low-end side.

Glancing to the side while jumping to a tree branch, he smelled a roasting scent from the side.

Upon smelling this fragrant scent that tickles his nose, Kyranʼs stomach grumbled angrily as he hasnʼt eaten in a couple of days. With no one to provide him food as the others are busy doing their tasks, he hasnʼt eaten yet and only drinks from the water source on the east side of the forest.

Finding that someone is cooking food, Kyran takes a detour and heads to his right.

Swish!

Like a saliant assassin that is stalking the target from the darkness, Kyran saw four Dark Elves that are sitting around a bonfire. From the carcass of a big and muscular mutated mountain lion, itʼs clear that they have just finished hunting it.

Kyran looks at the four of them before he turns his hands into claws.

[Killl, We can kill them... Take what they have and devour them, it will be worth it]

A whispering voice rings inside his head as Shurbaa tries to charm Kyran into killing the four Dark Elves that are eating the roasted meat. Kyran gulps harshly feeling the intent to kill rising by the second, his eyes started to squint and fixated on the four Dark Elvesʼ necks.

”Why are we here? Weʼre supposed to be helping in the fight!”

”Stop yelling, Kendel. Weʼre not obligated to help yet”

While sitting around the bonfire, Kendel who has the common features of a Dark Elf such as white hair and dark ashy skin, and another Dark Elf with a leaner build seem to be arguing about something.

Both of them are using Dark Elfʼs language.

Itʼs clear that Kendel is frustrated and impatient as he stands up and started pacing around.

Upon seeing this another female Dark Elf with glowing blue eyes glances at him in annoyance, ”Sit down, Kendel. Itʼs the adultsʼ problem, our time to protect our kind will come and itʼs certainly not now”, she said before rolling her eyes away.

But even with her persuasion, Kendel still doesnʼt want to calm down.

Looking at the other four that seem to be not minding whatʼs happening to their kingdom right now, Kendel gritted his teeth before he takes his sword and turns around to leave, ”I donʼt know about you guys, but Iʼm not going to just sit here and eat while the Beastmen are attacking us right now”

Just as he said that two of Kendelʼs friends sprung up and stopped him in his tracks.

”I know what youʼre feeling right now, but that doesnʼt mean we can disobey what the Elders told us. Weʼre simply too young and inexperienced, the only way we can help is by training and becoming stronger”, one of the Dark Elf said.

Although heʼs reluctant, Kendel unsheathed his sword before started slashing a big tree trunk.

Each of the strikes makes the big tree shakes and leaves fall over like rain, he decided to start training while simultaneously letting out the frustration inside of him. The others can only watch him while shaking their heads.

Unknown to them, the roasted meat above the bonfire floats by itself before disappearing.

Kyran decided not to kill the four Dark Elves knowing that they are still young and also would be bad for what he had in mind, he just stole the roasted meat before leaving them to eat. It might look easy, but the self-restraint he used earlier takes everything out of him.

When he reaches far enough, he leans on a tree trunk before slowly sliding down to the ground.

Cupping both of his faces with his hands, Kyran tries to calm his breathing as Shurbaa kept whispering in his ears. [Why didnʼt you kill them? They are Supernaturals, they donʼt deserve to live in your world. Kill, kill, and kill, they deserve death!]

[Didnʼt you see what they did to Rex? They tried to kill him, and now you let them go?]

Rubbing his face harshly while trying so hard to not go back and ripped the four young Dark Elves to shreds, Kyran takes the roasted meat on the side, ”I know but we need their help, we need them to live and survive in this place”

[Keep telling yourself that...], Shurbaa replied before laughing eerily as his voice fades away.

Inhaling a deep breath, Kyran takes the roasted meat and puts it close to his mouth. Upon reaching an inch away, his hand stopped as he stares into his front absent-mindedly. But in the next fraction of a second, he threw the roasted meat away.

”Raarggh!!”

Kyran roared angrily as he started to hits and claw the ground a couple of times in sheer anger.

Meanwhile, Rex opens his eyes and finds him still in the same position.

Finding that Gistella is looking at the tombstone in a sitting position while letting him sleep on her thighs, he smiled lightly before he slowly sit up which surprises Gistella. Looking around he also finds that both of them are surrounded by a blue barrier.

ʼDid she do this just to block the chilling night air? Sheʼs doing too muchʼ, Rex shakes his head.

Although that is what he was thinking he still appreciate the kind gesture as the night air is really cold due to the approaching Ice and Snow Full Moon, ”Good morning, master. How is your sleep?”, Gistella asked with a light smile.

Because of what she did for him, the smile sheʼs wearing brings some sort of comfort to Rex.

”The best one Iʼve had in forever, thank you Gistella”, Rex said and returns the smile, he then stands up feeling refreshed as if the burden inside of him has been lifted completely. Even as the barrier disappears and the sunlight penetrates through, he embraced it with open arms.

Nodding his head as he feels his mind refreshed, Rex decided to freshen up by taking a shower.

With his mind cleared from all burdens and his body rejuvenated due to the sleep, Rex doesnʼt have any excuse to not do the things he needed to do today. ”Iʼm going to take a shower, go tell Flunra to hunt a mutated animal for our breakfast”

”Yes, master. I will do exactly as you said”, Gistella replied.

After telling her to do that, Rex heads back to the hallway before he stopped at the end and looks to the left. ʼHmm...? Is Adhara here earlier? I can still smell her scent lingering hereʼ, he thought, but he didnʼt think too much of it and continued heading to his bed chamber.

Meanwhile, Gistella is also walking down the hallway intending to search for Flunra.

As she was walking at a steady pace, she started to slow down before she held her head with a frown. Closing her eyes, she reach the wall feeling that her balance is off before out of nowhere she fell to the ground weakly.

Just as she falls to the ground while still holding her head, someone saw her.

Soon she can hear hurried footsteps that are approaching from her side, it was Adhara, ”Gistella? Whatʼs wrong? Whatʼs happening to you?”, she asked in a worried tone. Itʼs not a regular thing to see something like this.

”Iʼll call for Rex”, she added as Rex is the only one capable of finding out whatʼs wrong with her.

But Adhara stopped when her wrist was grabbed by Gistella, she looks back at her with a frown. ”Donʼt call Rex, please...”, Gistella mutters whisperingly, pleading to Adhara to not let Rex know about this.

Upon hearing this, Adhara was confused but she decided to comply and helps Gistella to her room.

”How in the Dark Treeʼs name can our food suddenly disappear?”

”I only take my eyes off of it for one second, and itʼs suddenly gone!”

Kendel and the other Dark Elves were utterly confused to find that their roasted meat is gone, they are just arguing for a couple of seconds and it suddenly disappears. Each of them was utterly at a loss for words, they didnʼt even sense anyone approaching.

Just as they were pondering in confusion, they sensed a spike in energy in the distance.

Since they have lived in this forest for years ever since the Supernatural Emergence, they know the inhabitants of the forest and this spike of energy doesnʼt belong to any mutated animals they know. With a nod, they instantly takes their weapons and went in the foreign energyʼs direction.

A moment later,

”Itʼs a human, how did it get here in the first place...”

”Step aside, Iʼm going to snipe it”

With the raging anger inside of him due to not being allowed to fight, Kendel takes a bow from one of the Dark Elves before he gets on his stance on one knee. Attaching an arrow to the string, he pulls it back all the way until the string hits his cheek firmly.

”Dark Tree, give me strength...”

Swoosh!

Sizzling dark bronze energy started to concentrate at the tip of the arrow, amplifying its power.

Kendel squinted his eyes as he fixated his aim on the humanʼs head that is about four miles away, itʼs pretty far but at this distance, the human wouldnʼt be able to sense them. Especially since he was also cloaked with a spell that masked his presence.

Firming his position, he unleashes the arrow as it pierces the wind hastily without any sound.

Upon seeing the arrow flying towards the human, Kendel and the Dark Elves anticipated it to pierce the humanʼs head cleanly. But out of nowhere, the human dodged a bit as the arrow cloaked with a dark bronze aura grazed its chest and tore the humanʼs shirt.

Realizing that he had missed, Kendel and the Dark Elves were caught in surprise.

”D-Did that human just dodged Kendelʼs arrow?”

”Quick, fire another shot!”

Knowing that he needs to end the human before it realized what had just happened and be on guard, Kendel attach another arrow to the bow. But as he was just pulling the string, his body stiffens.

Even the other Dark Elvesʼ bodies also stiffens, they were completely caught off guard.

At the distance of four miles away from them, the human that Kendel was trying to kill is staring at them instantly before pointing his index finger at them. ”T-This is not possible... he found us in one second?!ʼ

While he was leaning on the tree, Kyran sensed a projectile and dodged it.

Slash!

Despite being able to sense the arrow right in time, he still got grazed on his chest due to his mind being occupied by something. Gritting his teeth, he instantly puts his senses to the max again before he noticed four figures at the side.

Realizing that it was the same Dark Elves, Kyran glared and pointed his finger at them.

”Not cool...”
