Baby cries were heard from inside the hut,
Ugrok widened his eyes in fright, he tries to stand up with all of his remaining power to get inside the hut.
Rex frowns, he lets Ugrok sluggishly walks back to his hut.
Rex decided to follow him, ‘Is that the child, I mean his child? a baby Cyclop?’
The closer they got into the hut, the louder the cries of the baby is.
Ugrok opened the hut,
The hut is filled with animals hide that covers the whole floor, many animal’s tusk and horns also decorated the insides. In the middle of the hut lies a bed, there is a little creature on it flailing its hands while crying.
Ugrok eye lit up, he got closer to the little creature with caring eyes.
He strokes the little creature gently, the fierce bloodthirsty fighter that Ugrok shows before is nowhere to be seen.
Ugrok’s right arm is scorched and bloodied,
The injury is nasty but although it hurts, Ugrok didn’t show any kind of pained expression while he caresses the little creature with his left hand.
On closer inspection,
Rex noticed that the baby Cyclop is not a pure one, Cyclop has one eye and reddish-brown skin. They also have one horn coming out of their head, and two blunt fangs on their mouth but the little creature in front of Rex is different.
The baby Cyclop has the same color as Ugrok but it has two eyes, Cyclop also has a big burly body but the baby in front of him has a lean proportional body.
Then suddenly, Rex realized something as his expression turns into shock, “HALF-HUMAN?!”, he cried out in shock.
Ugrok glances at him and said, “Yes, his mother is a human”
Rex killing intent suddenly rises, his face darkened with disgust.
Rex grabs Ugrok’s neck and lifts him up, “You forced a human to bear your baby?!”, he roared in anger.
Ugrok struggles trying to break free from Rex’s grip but his body is still in a weakened state, “Ugrok never force her! *Akh* It was never Ugrok’s intention!”
Rex squinted his eyes scanning Ugrok’s expression,
There is no sign of lying from his expression but it still hard for Rex to believe it, humans despise Supernatural so it’s almost impossible for a situation like that to happen.
After pondering briefly, Rex lets Ugrok go,
Ugrok catches his breath while holding his neck, “Why are you judging Ugrok?! You are a Supernatural just like Ugrok”, he said grimly.
Hearing this, Rex frowns as he remembers, ‘He only knows my Werewolf form, he doesn’t know I was a human before’
“Believe it or not, I was a human before I turned into this thing”, Rex said.
Ugrok’s expression turns skeptical, “Impossible!”, he said but suddenly he remembers Adhara’s form that looks weird.
“I don’t care what you think. tell me, why are you here in the middle of Human Territory?”, Rex asks curiously, Ugrok can aim for Rosie at any moment during the fight but he didn’t, this left a good impression on Rex.
Rex felt that Ugrok hate him more although Rex is in his Werewolf form,
Ugrok lifts the baby Cyclop up trying to calm him down, “Ugrok’s race loves fighting, we are called the berserker but after our demise, the remaining Cyclop doesn’t want to fight anymore. So I ran away to this place, a place where my ancestors built to shelter Cyclops from the coming war”
‘War? Did he meant the war that is ongoing now?’, Rex thought.
“Ugrok plan is to live here until the day Ugrok die using the animals in Emham Forest as food, Ugrok doesn’t want to fight anyone, Ugrok is only afraid that the humans or Supernaturals will kill Ugrok’s son”, He said with a sad expression.
Hearing this, Rex was put into thoughts, ‘My conscious doesn’t like killing someone that has no will to fight, as long as he doesn’t threaten human then it’s alright if I let him be’
“Fine, I will spare you. But if you kill any humans, I will hunt you down!”, Rex threatened.
Ugrok nodded his head,
‘System, is the Cluster Domain you mean is this place?’, Rex asks the system.
<yes></yes>
‘Ugrok says he is the owner, what did he mean by that’
<currently the=”” cluster=”” domain=”” is=”” his,=”” you=”” just=”” need=”” to=”” locate=”” the=”” energy=”” crystal=”” to=”” turn=”” it=”” into=”” yours=””></currently>
Hearing this, Rex stands up and asks, “I want to be the owner of this place, where is the Energy Crystal”
Ugrok raises his head hesitatingly, he then replied, “Promise me to let me and my son be if we didn’t disturb the humans”
Rex nodded his head, he promised and he meant it.
Ugrok still not buying it, “If you really mean it then swear upon your Origin!”
Rex was confused but he nodded his head to show his sincerity, “I swear upon my Origin that I will not kill Ugrok and his son if they didn’t threaten the humans”
Origin Swearing is a sacred promise for Supernatural, If any Supernatural broke the promise then they will be hunted and killed by their ancestors themselves and this is the holiest promise a Supernatural can make.
After swearing, Rex suddenly felt his body restrained by an invisible chain.
<the origin=”” has=”” bind=”” the=”” user,=”” breaking=”” this=”” promise=”” will=”” kill=”” the=”” user=”” instantly=””></the>
<removing origin=”” promise…=””></removing>
<success!></success!>
Rex smiles bitterly, ‘Well this is not sincere if the System erases it right? oh well’
Ugrok then tells Rex about the Energy Crystal that sustains this dimension, he said that the Energy Crystal will show up during the morning inside this hut.
After that, hurried footsteps were heard from outside the hut until suddenly the hut curtain opened forcefully.
Rosie gets inside the hut and shouted, “Rex! Adhara went berserk again!”
Rex then got out of the hut and saw Adhara is destroying the surroundings as if she’s possessed.
‘System, how do I calm Adhara down?’, Rex asks hurriedly.
<overwhelm adhara=”” with=”” the=”” user’s=”” aura,=”” it=”” will=”” activate=”” the=”” brand=”” on=”” her=”” neck=”” and=”” calms=”” her=”” down=””></overwhelm>
Reading this, Rex immediately went closer to Adhara and forcefully let out all of his aura.
Adhara who is pacing back and forth like a lunatic suddenly snaps her neck in Rex’s direction, she can feel the familiarity with Rex’s aura.
The brand on her neck also burns, it acts as a way to force a branded person down.
The burning anger inside of her suddenly started to soothe as she whimpers submissively under a shade,
“Adhara! Take control of it!”, Rex roared trying to pull Adhara’s conscience to take the lead.
Rex’s eyes glow brightly, he is looking at Adhara intently.
Adhara suddenly jolted, her lips trembled as she says weakly, “Rex…”
Her voice is so low but Rex caught it, he then said, “Try controlling your transformation, at least don’t wreak havoc this place”
Adhara crawls away and sits under a shade,
“Rosie, help me keep an eye on her. I must do something for a while”, Rex said as he remembers that he needs to level up quickly using the breathing technique.
Rosie nodded her head and accompany Adhara,
After that, Rex went to an empty field.
Lin the Kapre Breathing Technique is etched inside his head, ‘First step, I need to make a ritual formation to execute this technique’
Rex cuts his own finger and immediately draws the formation on the ground, he follows every step according to the book.
The formation is made of three runes symbolizing God, Gift, and Wealth.
God is the source of the power that will be granted to the ritual user, the power then turns into gifts by the god to enhance the ritual user, and these gifts will bring an immense wealth of power for the ritual user.
After the runes are drawn perfectly in a triangle shape, a sitting creature statue emerges from the ground.
The creature is smoking a cigarette and its body is long and muscular, the creature looks like a living tree-like creature but it is different from a Tree Giant.
Its two hands are stretched in front of it palm facing down,
Rex then walks to the center of the formation just under the statue’s two hands, he then sits in a meditative position.
The statue’s eyes then glow dark red, three dark red orbs float out of the runes creating a majestic triangle pattern with Rex in the middle of it.
Rosie saw a statue emerge out of nowhere, ‘What is he doing now? How did he know all of this stuff’, She thought.
Rex felt the abundance of Dark Moonlight Energy around him got closer to him, he then chanted, “Absorb!”
WHOOSHH!!
The orbs suddenly become a magnet and pull the surrounding Dark Moonlight Energy into the statue, the orb slowly turned blacker by the seconds because of the Dark Moonlight Energy.
The statue absorbs all of the Dark Moonlight energy in the surrounding endlessly, if Rex looks at his stats then he will probably notice the remaining time of the Dark Moon decrease.
Dark Moonlight Energy pours endlessly inside the statue, the statue was filled with Dark Energy as its eyes glow with dark energy.
Then suddenly, the statue’s hands moved.
Its hands got closer to Rex then swiftly after,
BOOM!!
The Dark Moonlight Energy got transferred towards Rex, it is rushing endlessly inside Rex that makes him engulfed by darkness.
ROARR!!
Rex roared in pain, the transfer of Energy is way more painful than he had anticipated. Even with his Werewolf form, he still felt immense pain as if his body is stabbed countless times by invisible swords.
The Dark Energy is flowing forcefully in his body, he felt like he will explode if this continues on.
Rex calms himself down, he tries to execute the breathing technique to absorb the intense Dark Moonlight Energy so he will not explode.
He steadies his breathing, the dark energy slowly got digested into Rex’s body and nourishing it.
There is also a spark of fiery energy that came out of the statues, the fire energy helps Rex’s body to sustain the immense Dark Moonlight Energy.
He gritted his teeth in pain as rows of notifications appeared in front of him,
<absorbing dark=”” moonlight=”” energy…=””></absorbing>
<obtained 40,000=”” exp…=””></obtained>
<90,000 exp…=””></90,000>
<level up!=””></level>
<level up!=””></level>
His experience points are rising like crazy, although Rex didn’t see it, he can feel his power got stronger and stronger.
The dark energy is still flowing and rushing like crazy out of the statue, the three orbs also still has the same amount of magnetic powers towards the Dark Moonlight Energy and it seems the ritual will not end anytime soon.
Meanwhile, Zrolis City.
“Yes, just a couple of hours left before it finally blooms”, Jarvald said with an excited expression.
The Silver Mooncress is mutating slowly and it will be ready in just a couple more hours, he can’t wait to absorb it and becomes a rank seven powerhouse.
“Jarvald! The princess has arrived!”, a Werewolf said from afar.
Hearing this, Jarvald is annoyed, “Tch!!”, he then left the Silver Mooncress.
Unknown to him, Bertolf is already watching him from afar.
He is in a dilemma, he wanted to snatch the Silver Mooncress now but it still not bloom yet and the effect will be greatly reduced but the timing is so perfect.
Just as he wanted to take the Silver Mooncress,
SWOOSH!!
‘Hmm? What happened? Why is the Dark Moonlight Energy becomes thinner?’, Bertolf thought before he glances at the source of the disruption.
Bertold then thought, ‘How can this be? someone is absorbing this much energy?’, he then glances at the Silver Mooncress and saw that it is wavering as the Dark Moonlight Energy got sucked out of it a little.
‘Who in the hell done this?!’
