Receiving the sudden news, both of them has grim look on their faces.

Despite being Werewolves right now, the event called Supernatural Emergence that started everything is still a thorn inside of them. Countless people died, the world went upside down in an instant, and it's also the event that makes them forced to adapt.

It happened when they were still little, but the horror is ingrained in their minds.

"What do you suggest we do, then when that happened?" Evelyn eventually asked lightly.

Skoghad paused for a brief moment, pondering the answer inside his head before he glanced at her and replied, "Since we, the Dwarves have agreed to become your ally, our goals are the same. We need to lay low, and prepare refugees for those who would have their eyes opened and decide to not want to be involved with the war again"

"Unless I miss my guess, there's going to be a lot of people seeking for us" he added.

Naturally, during the First Breath, war will span across the entire world. 

But instead of two sides fighting against one another, Humans versus Supernaturals, there will be fights everywhere and anywhere possible. If the Supernatural Elders awakened, then they will also bring their views alongside them.

Any hatred or bad blood will be brought to the modern day.

It wouldn't be a surprise if the high-rank Supernatural races might've fought each other.

Of course, when the matters were settled and the Supernatural Elders finally understand the current era is when they would attack the humans. But unlike the first Supernatural Emergence, the humans are ready.

With the help of the Executor, the fight will definitely be bloody.

Evelyn and Adhara know vividly that Rex has a change of heart, he was not seeking Supernatural genocide anymore, he was seeking a peaceful world where both sides can co-exist in harmony.

Create a future where nobody would suffer the same fate as him, victims of war.

Both of them also support that decision and would do anything to help Rex realize that dream of his, and the time to prove themselves is nearing, the First Breath would be the testament to whether realizing that dream is even possible.

Pondering for a moment, Adhara and Evelyn also praised Rex inside their heads.

Although it's unclear if Rex predicted this to happen or if he did it out of precaution, the fact that he expanded the castle and create Dargena City is perfectly aligned with the coming First Breath.

With the huge city as well as the recruited guards, they are somewhat prepared for it.

"My grandfather once said that, unlike the other Supernatural races, we have a good relationship with the Executor. We made a couple of trinkets and armor for them. If you stay here until things calmed down, you'll be fine" Skoghad explained.

Upon hearing this, Adhara and Evelyn nodded their heads in understanding.

Even though they were about to train again against the mutated animals, the situation is unfit for them to do that. And even if they were forced to keep training, they probably wouldn't find any mutated animals.

At the whiff of these powerful shockwaves, they are probably hiding right now.

But looking to either side and around, Skoghad then proposed as he didn't find the person he was looking for,  "I reckon Sir Flunra is outside, he was not in the room earlier. Do you want me to dispatch some of our elites to retrieve him? Maybe he got trapped and would need help" 

Since he doesn't see Flunra anywhere, he guessed that he was not there.

Contrary to what Skoghad expected, Adhara and Evelyn look at each other before turning their heads to look at him, "No need, Flunra is more than capable of handling himself, even if he met a ninth-rank realm Supernatural. I would be more worried about the elites you would send to retrieve him" Adhara replied.

"Yeah, let's see how this will end. Flunra will be back later" Evelyn also added.

Just hearing the absolute certainty in their tones, Skoghad looks at the far distance before he thought to himself, 'I thought he struggled to fight against King Samobas, how can these two be so sure that he's going to be okay?'

"Well if that's the case, then I'll also trust that Sir Flunra will be fine" Skoghad replied.

Meanwhile, a dozen of miles away from the Dwarven Kingdom.

Flunra is currently sneaking away in the opposite direction when he saw the situation is getting worse, the fight between the Elder and the Executor was destructive, laying waste to anything around.

It was so bad that a couple of torn dimensional holes can be found around the place.

Now, the torn dimensional holes have spread not only to the sky but also to the ground. Flunra is effectively maneuvering over those torn dimensional holes, knowing that it's a bad thing to touch them.

Knowing that an Elder has awakened, he needs to report this to Rex quickly.

Moreover, the Werewolves with the help of Vampires are trying to do something during the Storm Moon. Flunra doesn't know why but it's definitely a bad thing, he wanted to investigate more but this happened.

With the First Breath nearing, Flunra knows that they need to fortify their defenses.

Additionally, they would need to assist the other allied race to protect themselves. None of them would be safe when the First Breath arrived, the world will be in total chaos once again and it's very bad for them.

Out of all places, Dargena City would probably be the safest place.

Dargena City is tucked away, and not many are aware of its location. Only the allied races know of its location so it only requires a minimal number of fortifications in order to defend itself from the incoming enemies.

The other allied races, however, require a much more robust fortification system.

Just as he was coursing through the landscape in a hurry with the battle between the Executor and the Elder right above him, he suddenly sensed something akin to a spear stabbing his back.

In an attempt to find its source, Flunra looks over his shoulders before his eyes widened.

CRASH!

Pinned down on the ground with destructive cracks spreading to the entire area, Flunra was surprised as he blocked an ambush attack from a figure. But as he realized who the figure was, his expression darkens.

With a pair of deep animalistic eyes, this Werewolf that attacked him is surely an Alpha.

"Arnulf the Special, it's an honor to meet with you," the Alpha said excitedly.

Upon hearing this, Flunra gritted his teeth and forced out a struggling smile as he tries to keep the Alpha's claws from grabbing his neck. It's not a surprise that the Alpha is quite strong considering that he was also in the eighth-rank realm.

Smiling savagely in return, Flunra then replied, "It's Flunra now, and I'm flattered"

Bam!

Flunra didn't stay pinned on the ground, he engraved a rune taken a shape of a triangle without the bottom line on his skin. In an instant, a surge of red energy envelopes his body and increases his strength immensely.

Using that power, he kicked the Alpha Werewolf away from him and get back to his feet.

Just as he regained back his standing, Flunra was greeted by two more Werewolves coming out of the tenebrous with the same killing intent as the first Alpha Werewolf. It seems he was surrounded from all sides.

"Did you see what we did back there?" One of the Alpha Werewolves asked.

Upon hearing this, Flunra looks around before he forces out a smile without any hint of worry in his expression at all, "Yes, I saw the banquet you have back there and I'm wondering why I'm not invited. It's heartbreaking" he teased.

But this makes the three Alpha Werewolves smile back, and their killing intent heightens.

"Funny, the dead dared to make jokes now" An Alpha with a scarred face mused.

Just then, another Alpha Werewolf, the biggest one of them all added with a threatening tone, "If that's the case, then you leave us with no choice. No matter what, you are going to need to leave your life here. Killing you would definitely make King Baralt pleased" 

Knowing that they can't let Flunra leave, the three started to circulate their energies.

Sharp and daunting auras started to appear around their bodies, exposing the bluish authority of an Alpha Werewolf. Each was powerful enough to crack the ground beneath them under their sheer pressuring aura.

An uncomfortable silence covers the four of them, and the tension grew with each second.

It takes not a twitch of the muscle before a fight started.

Like a coordinated attack with perfect harmony, the three Alpha Werewolves dashed closed from every side and aimed at different parts of Flunra's body to provide a wide array of unpredicted swift attacks.

But Flunra is no pushover as two more runes appeared on his body.

One enhances his mental clarity, another enhances his speed and agility immensely.

BAM!

With the help of the ancient runes, he managed to block all three attacks precisely.

After the first exchange which he manages to block perfectly, the three Alpha Werewolves jumped away with a slight surprise on their faces. "I've always wanted to learn about the ancient runes, but I have never been able to do even one of them"

"Same here, it's very strong. How lucky you are to have a talent in runes" Another added.

But instantly after they said that the three Alpha Werewolves strengthen their stances as their aura blasted even stronger. It's clear now they are going to be attack seriously, "Seeing someone like you gets on my nerves. Lucky for us, you will not be able to retain your life today"

Due to the Executor coming and messing up their plans, the three's moods are already sour.

Now the three of them confronted a talented Werewolf that could masterfully use the ancient rune which the three of them can't, and that is the last straw that makes this day one of their bad days.

Moreover, the three are loyal to the current king, King Baralt.

Aside from the fact that Flunra is a part of the Silverstar Pack and killing him would make King Baralt praise them, the three also remembered how Flunra was trying to dethrone King Baralt from his position as the King of Werewolves.

Contrary to staying loyal, Flunra chooses to be loyal to the Dark Prince instead.

Something like that is unacceptable, Flunra is a full-on traitor that they really wanted to kill.

"It's not too late to step out of this, the three of you can still get out of this alive. For the moment we exchange blows is the moment you forfeit your lives, I will not hold back and would try to kill you if our fight started" Flunra said with an expressionless face.

Despite the three being eighth-rank realm Alpha Werewolves, he has gotten stronger.

Flunra, compared to the last time when he fought against King Samobas has grown way stronger. Even by comprehending the First Mudra, his power has reached a new height, triumphing easily over his old self.

Knowing that fact, he has absolute confidence in himself and pities these three Alphas.

"Are you seriously saying that we'd lose? A three against one?" the biggest Alpha Werewolf chuckled mockingly, he doesn't see any way the three of them loses this even with the help of Flunra's ancient runes.

Even the other Alphas are also not taking this seriously, there's no way they'd lose.

"We know about your ancient runes, and you wouldn't be fast enough to fight the three of us even with them. Flunra, you should know your limits, you only survived this long out of luck and cowardice" 

But as soon as Flunra heard this, a sudden shift in the air around him happened.

Flunra faces the three Alpha Werewolves with a wide smile on his face, the fierce killing intent that he developed throughout thousands of years was exposed for the three Alphas to see, showing the countless battles he has been through.

'Luck and cowardice? In the ancient era, none of them are present'

'It's either strong enough to survive or die...'

Spreading his arms to the side with heightening malicious intent, the smile on his face grow wider across his face which changes the expression of the three Alphas instantly, "My limit? Of course, I know my own limit. I've lived longer than three of you have combined, and you think I don't know my limit?"

"Also, how do you know my limit when I haven't even shown you anything?"

Immediately after he said that he brings his index finger in front of his face as the three runes he engraved on his body started to glow brighter and become stronger. "Stop worrying about my limit, why don't we find out about yours?"

"First Runic Mudra, Enhance!"

Swoosh!
