The Invincible Full-Moon System



Under his command, the Dwarven Army collected the carcasses of the Rastrikan Demons.

Since the intimidation display is no longer needed, it is time to take the carcasses down from the trees and make a small hill out of them. Rex would need to absorb these wicked entities in order to erase the Infernal Weakening of the Abaddon.

All of the Dwarves were having cold feet while doing this.

Each one of them was thankful that their King had chosen to side with the Silverstar Pack.

It would be quite horrifying to think of being on the other side of the equation.

Rex gazes at the small hill, a pile of thousands of Rastrikan Demon carcasses, a victim of his vicious claws and scheme with a nod. He puts out his hand forward and activates the weird weakening that is suppressing his power.

Swish...

A pale red energy shot forward and encompassed the entirety of the small hill.

Under the gazes of the onlookers, the Rastrikan Demon carcasses turned into essences of energy and were absorbed by Rex, rejuvenating every cell of his body. Gradually, these essences weaken the suppressing seal inside of him.

Eventually, a glass-breaking sound could be heard.

Rex clenched his hands, the Infernal Weakning of Abaddon was already broken.

<Congratulations for breaking the Infernal Weakening of Abaddon!>

<An infernal blessing has been granted!>

<Pseudo-Infernal Physique>

Fulfilling the demand of the infernal abyss after borrowing its power, the user has been blessed and granted a portion of the infernal's might, which has now become their own. This infusion has enhanced the user's physical attributes, bolstering the user's physique and infusing every cell with infernal energy. As a result, the user experienced a 20% increase in overall stats and can use the Infernal Shield skill to gain 10% demonic energy resistance.

Upon the appearance of the notifications, Rex could feel the inside of his body changed.

It was a sensation akin to a blowing wind from within.

Rex could see his veins, muscles, ligaments, and even bones bulging powerfully.

A smile was plastered on his lips as he had gotten stronger once again.

Had the Dwarves known that Rex had gotten 20% stronger compared to earlier when he was fighting Demon Lord Aructh and Mazel, some of them would probably have died in shock as their minds couldn't keep up.

Let's see the increase, I should be able to handle the Elders better now.

Intelligence: 36,855 (+120) 

Upon seeing his stats, Rex smiled, he's gotten way stronger than before.

Most of the increase in his stats was thanks to the Infernal Weakening of the Abaddon that has been lifted and also the Psuedo-Infernal Physique, but there's also another factor that gave a considerable amount of contribution to this increase.

It was the fact that he had gotten 2 additional pack members, Aructh and Mazel.

Rex has gotten 10% additional bonus stats from them.

Abusing the pack member feature to become stronger is effective, but the problem with that is the unpredictability factor. Some might go berserk without attentive supervision. Moreover, I have only been managing five members as of late. But if there's more, or even surpassing ten, something wrong is bound to happen.

Due to this problem, he has been meticulous in choosing a new pack member.

Prof. K and Giana were turned not without a good reason.

Both of them passed the test to become a member of the Silverstar Pack simply because they are adequate, and most importantly, Rex knows both of their motivators, the fuel that keeps them driving forward.

If he knows their motivators, then he essentially knows how to leash them.

One wanted to contribute to humanity more, while the other wanted to atone for her sins.

Since turning someone into a Werewolf would amplify their feelings towards him as well as their desires, he really needs to pay attention to this. Any mishaps would be disastrous, as his enemies are everywhere, and an internal problem is not something he needs.

This also applies to Adhara, Evelyn, and Gistella.

Adding pack members is not a simple feat and requires extreme finesse and contemplation.

However, Aructh and Mazel passed all of that easily.

Rex has induced a Minor Oustification of fear and death upon them, which essentially means that their very being is now naturally infused with fear of him. It was akin to the instinctive fear of death that all living beings possess.

Due to that, he could turn them without much thought.

Minor Oustification is not a simple occurrence, it's impossible to be undone by the affected.

After absorbing the Rastrikan Demon carcasses, Rex turned his head to the horizon.

Even though he has gotten considerably stronger, he knows that he is still incomparable to the Executor. His only window of beating him is during the First Breath, or else he would regain his power once again.

If he doesn't reach the sufficient cursed epiphany, his plan will also fail.

Despite my win against the Elders, all of them haven't really gone all out yet. I could tell. Flunra could give me some trouble back then with weird methods from ancient times, I'm certain that all of them have something too. Even Elder Noskear was probably not going totally all out back then.

Yes, she tried to kill me, but that doesn't mean those are her strongest summoned puppets.

Rex still has a long way to go before he can establish his position.

Just like what Elder Rancaladra said back then, 'Even a weary heavenly dragon can still be slain, I want you to remember that', he knows that despite the passiveness of the Elders against him, they would turn on him someday.

Elder Noskear and Storm Prince were the obvious ones.

But what if it was the others?

Elder Enima, Elder Tilrith, Elder Nolacula, or even Elder Rancaladra himself, what would he do if any of them attacked him when he least expected it? He could've died as each one of them has sufficient strength to hurt him.

May not be able to beat him in a duel, but definitely able to kill him off guard.

Nothing is certain in a game of deception and politics, extreme care is required in this.

For now, I need to prepare before meeting with the Executor.

Aside from cultivating his cursed source to the required epiphany, he would need to attempt to increase his physical stats as much as he can in order to scan the Executor with the System and gauge the Executor's strength.

He could achieve this after he finished the Sudden Quest for the Rastrikan Demons.

Demon Cores are definitely the way to go.

Since the Executor would definitely call for him in a bit, he would need to prepare himself.

"Are we preparing to depart quickly? I could call for the Elves to help us travel faster" Adhara suddenly came from the side with a relaxed expression, she heard Mazel's last words, and it was unnatural for her to be this calm.

On the other hand, Rex seemed to be concerned slightly.

Crossing his arms with a frown, he replied, "No need to worry, we should have enough time"

"Did you anticipate this to happen?" Adhara asked back.

Upon hearing this, Rex nodded his head. It would be foolish of him to not anticipate a legion or two legions of Rastrikan Demons to somehow reach the Dwarf Kingdom while the army and him was busy fighting another legion.

At first, Rex didn't expect that the fight would go smoothly.

He anticipated that at least one of them managed to escape and reach the Dwarf Kingdom.

Due to the fearsome reputation of the Rastrikan Demons, he would need to take them very seriously and give them some credit. So he has already made precautions, "Flunra is there, I trust him. Even though he won't win, he should stall enough time for us to get there"

Adhara pursed her lips when she heard this, puffing her cheeks cutely.

"I also already contacted Lady Lauren and the Dark Elves, as well as the Tigerman to spare a portion of their military to help in case of an attack on the Dwarf Kingdom. I thought I would surprised with it, but seems like you had the same thought" She explained, slightly bit annoyed.

She thought that for sure she could give Rex a pleasant surprise.

But it seems she was wrong.

Upon hearing this, Rex paused for a second before he smiled pleasantly in return.

Since he was in a hurry, he was only able to tell Flunra to help the Dwarf Kingdom. He was concerned that even though Flunra was strong, the numbers would overwhelm him and the Dwarf Kingdom might suffer a considerable amount of damage before he and the army arrived there.

Rex also had no time to contact the others for help as they departed soon enough.

However, it seems he didn't need to be worried.

Adhara has already taken the initiative in doing that, fortifying the Dwarf Kingdom's defense.

Even though she wanted this to be a perfect situation where Rex didn't anticipate this situation at all, her initiative would definitely help, and this made Rex rub her head with a genuine smile, "What are you puffing your cheeks for? It's good that you have taken the initiative"

"Should I pretend to not anticipate this situation?" He asked, obviously teasing her.

Listening to his teasing tone made her roll her eyes.

Obviously, the topic is sensitive, and it made her grumpy, "Shut up, I don't want to hear it!"

Rex laughed out loud seeing her turning her body away with her arms crossed, acting all grumpy like a woman in her period. It seemed conquering the Rastrikan Demons blew some of his steam off, and he was in a good mood.

On the other hand, the Dwarves could only smile wryly at this sight.

Just earlier, Rex was akin to the devil as he conquered the fearsome enemies with brutality.

But now, he was laughing vibrantly, his scary demeanor vanished just like that.

While it wasn't a particularly remarkable exchange, witnessing this moment reinforced the idea that they would need to act really good, or essentially suck up to Adhara as she could even break through the fearsome facade of a God that Rex had presented earlier.

It was then, both of their banter stopped as their attentions were pulled to the side.

Glancing to the side from the other end of the river that has now streamed again, resuming the waterfall, Rex could see two figures approaching them from the distance, and he instantly recognized the two of them.

One is a Succubus and the other is a Dragonman.

Rex stepped forward and faced the two of them, displaying that he was unwavering.

"Elder Tilrith, Elder Rancaladra, are the two of you here to check my work?"

Upon hearing the names that Rex uttered, the Dwarves felt their throats tighten at the sight of these two figures. Being caught working together like this is the reason why the Dwarves were having this reaction.

Although the leaders already changed, the problem remained the same.

Finding that Rex was helping them shows that there's an existing relationship between them.

If not careful, then the fact that the rebellious group exists would be exposed.

Moreover, the presence of the Elven Army nearby is also not helping, making it even more obvious that the rebellion group exists. But then again, there's nothing they could do as the two of them are already here.

The only thing they can do right now is hope that Rex can save them from this.
