Rex senses a person approaching him and Adhara.
From the scent the person emitted, Rex knows clearly that the person is Rosie who he felt while scouting before.
Sensing this, Rex jumped and sits on one of the huge rocks.
He saw Rosie approaching him slowly, she walks with unsure steps.
Rex’s piercing eyes stare right at Rosie, he didn’t want to see Rosie, especially after their exchange before.
“What are you doing here Rosie?”, Rex asks coldly.
Seeing Rex’s pissed expression makes Rosie’s body jolted, “Is Adhara with you? What are you guys doing?”
Hearing this, Rex wanted to send her away but Adhara intervenes.
“Don’t be harsh Rex, she’s the first one that knows who you are and kept it for herself”, Adhara said.
Adhara’s words make Rex stopped before she looks back at Rosie.
She then lifts up her hair and shows the Silverstar Mark to Rosie, “Look, I officially become Rex’s pack now”
Looking at the glowing Silverstar Mark, Rosie bit her lips.
Rosie looks at Adhara’s mark with envy, she then looks at Rex and said, “Why is she chosen and not me?”
Hearing this, Adhara was stunned.
“What do you mean I’m chosen?”, Adhara asks confusedly, she doesn’t know what Rosie means.
Rosie looks at Rex with determination, her eyes glister fiercely, “What does she have that I don’t? What do you see in her that you don’t see in me?! Just WHY?!”, she shouted desperately.
Rex only looks at Rosie with a stoic expression.
“Turn me into a Werewolf!! I’ll abandon my humanity for you!”, She shouted as tears fell from her eyes.
Adhara is in a spot, she looks at Rex with a confused look, “Why don’t you turn her?”
Without even answering Adhara, Rex jumped down from the huge rock and said, “That’s exactly why I will not turn you, you’re doing this for me and that’s not the intention of my pack”
“You see, the purpose of my pack is to kill every single Supernatural and your motive of joining in my pack is not on track with our pack’s motive”
Hearing this, Rosie was at a loss for words.
She thought that Rex didn’t want to turn her into a Werewolf because she never asks Rex, but it turns out she never was a candidate in Rex’s eyes.
A disdainful smile appeared on Rex’s face, “If you really want to know, then I’ll tell you”
“Adhara have somekind of hatred for Supernatural while you don’t, she trained hard and reaches number two just below me in Ochyra University while you don’t”
“Aside from all of that, I didn’t want to turn you because you don’t have any…Ambition”
BOOM!
Rosie’s mind trembles as Rex’s words echoed in her mind, it was akin to lightning thundering inside her brain that makes her body froze.
Adhara also gasps in shock, she didn’t expect Rex to be this mean to Rosie.
Rex then puts his hand in his pocket after he signals Adhara to follow him, “I don’t want a burden in my pack. Our deal is done, there’s no need for you to see me anymore”
He walks past Rosie who is still frozen like a statue after saying that.
Adhara looks at her with pitiful eyes, “I’m sorry, I’ll try to talk to him”
After Rex and Adhara are gone, Rosie fell to her knees with tears flowing out of her eyes like a mountain.
But instead of sobbing, a pitiful laugh came out of her mouth.
Her laugh got engulfed by the waterfall sound but her crazed expression can still be seen, it is a poetic scene that matches perfectly with the night.
Because of the incident before, Rex and Adhara decided to walk back to Faraday University.
Silence covered both of them,
Adhara knows that Rex is in a bad mood so she decided to let Rex be.
They both walk on the sidewalks, sector 2E is already devoid of life because it’s nearing midnight right now.
While walking slowly, they suddenly heard something coming from the alley on their right.
Rex and Adhara look at each other before deciding to check it out.
Both of them sneaked to the alley before Rex poked his head to see, he saw a group of three men wearing t-shirts circling a man with ashy skin.
The group of men are currently kicking and stomping the ashy-skinned man on the ground while one of them is holding a woman.
“You filthy creature, how dare you to talk back to me!”, one of the men wearing t-shirts said.
The ashy-skinned man held his arms in defense, “I’m sorry! please don’t touch her, she’s my wife”, the man pleaded for mercy.
“Although you’re filthy, your wife here is quite gorgeous”, the man said, he held the wife who struggles to break free while kissing her neck.
These happened in front of Rex’s eyes,
He wanted to help but when he scans all of them, he’s quite shocked by what he saw as his body stopped mid-way.
The man pleading on the ground and his wife turn out to be a Supernatural while the group of men wearing t-shirts is human.
‘A Supernatural? I never knew they can live here’, Rex thought.
Rex mainly lives his life in the military so he hardly goes out to see the world, all he knows is war, war, and war.
He knows that there’s some war prisoner but these Supernatural looks ordinary.
War prisoner that he met during the military is usually an important Supernatural,
For example, the child of a high-ranking Supernatural family, powerful Supernatural General, or others around that kind of caliber.
So he’s quite confused about seeing this.
“Why are we here? I’m feeling really uncomfortable right now”, Adhara said.
The guys are already started raping the Supernatural’s wife, it was a disturbing act that even Rex himself finds disgusting.
Rex glance at Adhara and said, “Let’s wait here, I’m curious about something”
After half an hour or so, all the guys already took their turn while pinning the Supernatural on the ground who kept begging to stop.
The group of men walks out of the alley with a satisfied expression before they met Rex and Adhara.
“What are you looking at punk? Never see someone’s having sex before?”, one of the guys said harshly.
Hearing this, Rex activates his black lightning mana.
It makes the group of guys tremble before their expression turns pale, “He’s an Awakened!! I’m sorry please let us go”
Rex waves his hands before the group of men ran for their lives.
He then went inside the alley and find the Supernatural hugging his wife while sobbing, his wife’s eyes are already blank because of the act that group of men did.
Rex approaches them carefully,
Looking at Rex approaching, the ashy-skin man jolted as he held his wife tightly, “Please no more, I beg you please just hit me! Don’t bring my wife into this”
Adhara becomes pitiful of them,
After a closer look, she realizes that the man and his wife are a Supernatural.
“Why didn’t you fight back? You had the strength to do so”, Rex asks the ashy-skinned man.
Rex already checked both the wife and the ashy-skinned man stats before, he found that both of them are early rank four.
The odd situation that Rex found weird is that the group of men before is not an Awakened.
With a rank four power, they can easily kill those men before with a snap of their fingers but they chose not to do so.
The ashy-skinned man glance at Rex with teary eyes, “Don’t make fun of us!”
“I’m being serious, I don’t know why you didn’t just fight back before”, Rex asks, he really doesn’t know why these creatures didn’t fight back.
Hearing this, the ashy-skinned man looks back at Rex.
He studied Rex’s expression before he said, “We’re civilians, we make an oath to our Origin that makes us unable to use our power”
‘Civilians? Are they the Civilians Calidora said before?’, Rex thought.
Rex remembers when he captured the Vampire in Zrolis City he asked her why she helped the human prisoner, and she said something about Supernatural also have Civilians.
It was a bizarre concept that Rex finds hard to believe.
But now, he encounters one of these civilians Calidora talked about, “How many Civilians do Supernatural have?”
Hearing this, the ashy-skinned man said, “Why should I answer you?”
“I’ll forcefully do your wife again if you don’t answer”, Rex said coldly.
Fearing that Rex would really do her wife again, he then answers hurriedly, “It’s different from each race, some fighting races like Demon and Undead have little civilians while races like Siren have many civilians”
After getting his answer, Rex then asks, “Where did you come from? How did you guys get here?”
Rex never knew a Supernatural living in human society, even Adhara on his side also looks confused with these Supernaturals.
“We got captured by humans, we’re brought into some kind of market to be sold but we manage to escape”, the ashy-skinned Supernatural said.
Hearing this, ‘Market? Did it have something to do with Platchi’s business?’
Rex remembered that Edward said that the Platchi have somekind of illegal business to fund their son, he didn’t know what kind but this might be the one.
“Where’s this Market? Tell me its location”, Rex asks while gripping the Supernatural’s collar.
The Supernatural whimper weakly before he answered, “It’s in somekind of shop that way, we came out through the sewer so I didn’t get to see it”, the ashy-skinned Supernatural pointed in a direction.
Rex gripped the Supernatural’s collar tightly while glaring at him.
“I swear! that’s all I know!”, the Supernatural replied desperately.
After studying the Supernatural’s expression, Rex pushed him before he stands back up.
Adhara looks at the ashy-skinned Supernatural who looks pitiful coldly, she glanced at Rex when suddenly, “Please kill us”
Hearing the ashy-skinned man, Rex looks at him weirdly.
Feeling the weird expression of Rex, the ashy-skinned Supernatural added, “I can tell you’re strong, please kill both of us”
“I don’t think we can get out of here, and my wife…”, the Supernatural glance at his wife.
His wife already lost it, her blank and lifeless expression said so.
“Please just end our suffering”, the ashy-skinned Supernatural said with a determined expression.
Rex smiles mischievously, “I never said I won’t kill you”, he said with an evil smile.
Without wasting another second, Rex flashes to both of them as he held their heads.
Rex lifts both of them up, “Force Beam!”
CRUSH!!
Rex crushed both of their heads easily, his high strength stats and his Force Beam combined make his grip stronger as he crushed their heads like melons.
<Killed An Early Rank Four Supernatural, Obtained 40,000 Exp>
<Killed An Early Rank Four Supernatural, Obtained 40,000 Exp>
After getting the notification from the system, Rex tossed their corpse into the bin.
He doesn’t feel any remorse for killing the Supernatural, he just felt bad that they get defiled by the group of guys before.
Just after both Adhara and Rex left the alley,
Rex can feel something looking at him, he glances at the tree on his right and saw a black crow looking at him on the tree trunks.
Seeing this, “You go on ahead, I need to do something”
Adhara looks at Rex before she nodded her head, if Rex wanted to tell her then he will. Adhara didn’t want to rush Rex.
After Adhara left, Rex walks to a quiet place.
Not many people are on the street so it’s easy to find a quiet place.
While he’s walking, the black crow followed him to the quiet place before Rex stretches his arm as the black crow landed on it.
There’s a small bottle on the black crow’s mouth,
Rex took the small bottle before he opened it.
The last time this happened is when Prof.K send him a letter, so he knows that this black crow is from the SCO.
There’s a small letter inside the bottle, Rex opened the letter and read it.
“One week from now, Midnight“
The letter is short, there’s an address on the bottom of the letter.
Reading this, ‘They definitely know about me being an Awakened, should I come?’, Rex thought.
Stygian Crow Organization is an organization that rebels against the Awakened, this means that all of their members are not an Awakened.
After the tournament before, Rex’s ability is known worldwide.
So it’s safe to assume that the SCO knows of his ability which means there will be repercussions of him being a member of the SCO.
‘Let’s just see, I just Awakened recently so I’m not in the wrong here’
