The Invincible Full-Moon System

Adhara looks up and saw Rex's assuring eyes, she was so happy that no words can come out of her mouth.

For some reason, Adhara thought that Rex will agree.

But to her surprise, Rex decided to help her despite the danger that lies in front.

Rex rubs Adhara's back assuringly, but then,

A flash of his past flashes through Rex's mind like a ghost that never ceases to stop following him, the shadow that stands behind him and will never leave his existence.

The night that he still remembers clearly in his deepest heart,

No amount of consolation, or time can possibly erase this night from his memory.

It's the night when a young boy with a trembling body watches death from the door gap, he watches helplessly as blood splattered on the wall and floor.

Staining them scarlet red,

With no chance, no power, no nothing to help his parents from the devil's barbarity.

"GET BACK YOU MONSTER!!"

"NABILA!!"

Rex closes his eyes trying to get rid of the scene from that night,

He then opens his eyes back as his expression remains normal, he then said, "Go tell Kyran to prepare too, this will be our first of many slopes we will have to go through"

"We'll definitely save your father", Rex added confidently.

Adhara looks at Rex with her beautiful eyes before suddenly,

Tchup!

She kissed Rex right on his lips feeling grateful for meeting him,

This caught Rex off guard as he got kissed by Adhara, but he still lets her as Edward turns his head away from the scene.

After kissing Rex, Adhara smiles sweetly and left the room to tell Kyran.

The room becomes silent again as Rex and Edward are the only people left inside the room.

Rex is still unmoving from his spot,

He then saw Edward is looking at him attentively from the side.

Although nobody notices Rex's swift change in expression, Edward saw it clearly and he knows that it's the look Rex wear when he thinks of one thing.

One thing that nobody here knows except for Edward,

Rex walks slowly to the edge of the bed with heavy steps, he sat on the edge of the bed as he clasps his hand together while blankly staring at the walls.

There's no sound in the room, only the subtle voice from outside can be heard.

Aside from that, it's all silence.

Looking at this, Edward approach and sit by Rex's side.

He looks at Rex and saw his expression is blank, he then look at the wall in front of them before he finally said, "You remember when the sergeant mayor punished you for sleep talking?"

"It's my first day of joining the Noob Box, and I got greeted by this scene that I thought was stupid", Edward chuckles lightly remembering Rex doing push-ups alone under the rain until lunch.

Edward's reminiscing about the memories when they're still in the military.

"Back then, I was confused but also curious about you because you're the same age as me but you're there earlier. Many talks bad behind you but I always wonder what is inside your dream and where does your hatred for the Supernatural come from"

They both sat calmly on the edge of the bed as Edward kept talking about the past.

Rex listen attentively in silence,

Edward then looks at Rex who is looking down with a smile, "Until the day when I met Billy"

"He points at you who is sitting on the corner alone and said that every time Rex has that look, he's thinking of that particular night which birth the demon inside him"

"It doesn't surprise me when Billy tells me about that particular night, but the number of times you give that look surprised me. You kept thinking about it even during training, eating, and even sleeping", Edward shakes his head remembering that.

But then, Edward taps Rex's shoulder, "But look at you now, it's been a while since I last saw that look. You buried it so deep that even Adhara didn't notice it, you became distant and cold my friend", he said.

After saying that, Edward stands up as he tidied his clothes.

"When I met you after the ghoul's den incident, I thought that you're already healed while I'm still stuck in the past", Edward sighed.

He then glances at Rex who is also looking at him, "Turns out, you become stronger and I'm not"

Edward then smiles acutely,

Rex saw the pity behind Edward's smiles as Edward said, "You're not the helpless boy you once were. This time you will save them, you will save Adhara's father"

Just after he said that the door opens.

Adhara came to the room and saw Edward and Rex looking at her,

She can feel the weird atmosphere inside the room, but she didn't think anything about it and said, "Kyran is ready, I'll pack your stuff too and we can go now"

"I'll come with you guys, I'm sure I can help", Edward said surprising Adhara.

Adhara looks at Edward with a concerned look, "Are you really okay with this Edward? It's a selfish request from me and you don't need to put yourself in trouble for me"

Hearing this, Edward sigh dejectedly, "What are you saying, I thought we were closer than this"

This makes Adhara feel guilty seeing Edward's expression, she doesn't know what to do when suddenly, "I'm joking, I'm joking", Edward chuckled in humor.

Adhara sigh in relief finding Edward is just joking,

"I know the danger so no need to fret, besides, Rex will be there and I'll obviously follow him", Edward said glancing at Rex.

Rex then snapped out of his daze and said, "Then let's go right now, we'll use the fastest train to get as close to the city as we can before we will resume by foot"

Ten minutes passed,

Adhara already packed all of their belongings as they were ready to go to Beah City,

They got out of Rex's room and saw Kyran is already waiting for them,

Kyran doesn't have much, to begin with so he only brought a bag, and he's excited for the trip making Rex smile, 'At least he's not dwelling in sadness for too long'

After Kyran joins, the group of four headed towards the entrance.

Rosie is still in class by now, and Rex will not bring Ryze who doesn't have enough power to defend himself.

Rex looks to the entrance and found the butler standing in the middle of the hall,

He motionlessly stands in the middle of the hall, and Rex frowns upon seeing this knowing that something is up by the way he acts.

"We'll be leaving for a couple of days, take care of Ryze for me", Rex said.

He then intended to walk past the butler but the butler stands in front of Rex's way.

The butler looks at Rex with guilt before he said, "I'm sorry, I had to do this"

Hearing this, Rex looks at the butler in confusion.

"What do you mean by that?", Rex asks with a frown when suddenly,

Knock! Knock! Knock!

The entrance of the room got knocked a couple of times roughly,

After the third knock, the butler went towards the entrance and open it revealing five lecturers wearing a red uniform with stern gazes.

Rex saw Chandler amongst the lecturers, "Chandler? What is the meaning of this?", Rex asks.

Chandler then take a step to the front before he answered, "You're not permitted to go to Beah City, you will stay inside the university until further notice"

This makes Rex's group widen their eyes in shock, especially Adhara.

"My father is in danger!! I need to help him!!", Adhara shouted in anger.

By doing this, the university shows that they don't really care about Adhara aside from herself because she's a top Awakened here.

Rex scans the group of lecturers with a frown, 'All of them are rank six, we can't beat them'

After declaring that, Chandler signals to the lecturers to catch Rex's group.

This makes Adhara's body burns with purple fire, her blazing purple fire becomes even hotter as she glared at the lecturers.

But before she can do anything, "Adhara stop it", Rex said.

Adhara looks at Rex with a frown, "They're blocking us! We need to save my father!"

"Trust me", Rex said while looking at the lecturers.

Adhara looks at Rex with a doubtful expression, but she then reluctantly turns off her purple fire and lets the lecturers tie them with mana.

Seeing that Rex's group stops retaliating, the lecturers finally refrain them under Chandler's watchful gaze.

Rex look at Chandler and said, "Who ordered us to be kept here?"

"Vargas order us to stop you guys from going on a suicide mission, the butler told us everything you discussed", Chandler replied plainly.

He then added, "Rex, I hope you understand that this is for the best"

Hearing this, Rex becomes angry, "By letting our loved one die?!! Is this what you ask us to understand?!", he shouted angrily.

The muscle in Rex's body contracted as a violent aura blew the lecturers.

Although it was subtle, it still gives goosebumps to the others.

Chandler widened his eyes seeing this, he can feel how threateningly violent Rex's aura is which even makes him feel danger.

Even the lecturers step back because of this,

But Rex didn't plan to fight them head-on, he will not win if the vice-principal got involved.

"Let me talk to Vargas, that much is not too much to ask for right?", Rex said sarcastically, he's clearly angered by this.

Hearing this, Chandler nodded his head and brought Rex outside.

Rex sent one last assuring look to the others before he left the room with Chandler.

Meanwhile,

"President Sebrof, The Reinforcement from the Great Barricade has just arrived", a man said after entering a room.

Hearing this, Sebrof waves his hand, "Bring them here"

After getting his order, the man left the place and came back with three people.

The three people that just came emit an overwhelming aura that makes the man shudder, they're important people and anyone will know them just from a glance.

It's the backbone of humanity, three ninth rank Awakened.

The group of three consists of two women and one man and some of them is already geared in armor ready for battle.

"President Sebrof, Can't the situation be handled by you? The Great Barricade will be threatened with three ninth rank Awakened away", a man said while scratching the back of his head lazily.

The man's red eyes glance at Sebrof lazily,

His frame is quite muscular with orange undercut hair, and he seems to be the more relaxed one amongst the three with his black shirt covered with a black leather jacket.

Then a woman with light blue hair followed, "Don't mind him president, What is the situation?"

The woman with light blue hair looks clam with her ocean blue eyes.

Her breasts and shoulder are covered in armor with chainmail underneath covering all the way until her thighs, a blue hood attached to the armor with a white bow that is the size of her body strapped on her back.

The bow is beautifully carved and covered with a smooth runic pattern with a glowing ball of blue energy located in the middle of the bow acting as the bow's heart.

Sebrof then stands up, he looks at the group of three with a serious expression before he explained, "The situation is dire as the demons started attacking neighboring cities, and this cannot be allowed to be left longer so we will divide into teams of two to attack both demonic cities together and wipe them"

Hearing this, the group of three nodded their heads.

But then, "Aren't we better off sticking together? What will happen if they set up a trap for us", the other woman said.

This woman looks more mature and strict.

Long blonde hair added to her sharp emerald eyes gives her an air of invisible intensity that makes others nervous around her.

"We may take the safe route, but riots will keep spreading the longer the demonic city stands. By that time, the humans will split apart", Sebrof replied with a sigh.

After answering their questions, Sebrof then said, "Meet me downstairs in ten, we'll eliminate the demonic cities and I expect no casualty. If your life felt dangered, just retreat back and report"

"You're too precious for humanity, and are not allowed to die there", he added.

Hearing this, the group of three nodded their heads as Sebrof walk past them.
