Even with the rows of notifications from the system clouding his vision, Rex didn't pay them any mind as his eyes are fixated on the direction where the others are located. Now he has fully grasped the illusion's memory.
It happened on the verge of victory against the Shapeshifter before the white arrow arrived.
'Although the Lunar Dust Illusion doesn't have the full extent of my senses and power, it shouldn't be able to be sneak attacked like that. That white arrow is not normal...', Rex thought with a frown, he's grinding his teeth angrily.
Green Messenger, the Green Team, and Lady Lauren are the only ones that know about this.
There are not many people know that Rex would be helping the SCO to capture the escaped Shapeshifter for the Supernatural Radar, and because of that, there were only a few suspects that came to mind regarding the white arrow.
Rex instantly refers to Sebrof since he was the one that is acting very suspiciously.
The published article from before shows that Sebrof knows about him being a Werewolf, that is without a doubt, a fact. Not only that but Sebrof also didn't contact him in any way, that alone shows that he's not supporting him as a Werewolf.
Even though it's weird for Sebrof to include himself in the article, it's probably for the public sake.
Having Rex's name becomes even more prominent in humanity would just make the day when his actual race is exposed really devastating for the public, and Sebrof might want to lower his name a bit to avoid that.
It made sense and Rex wouldn't let that happen, not after he can finally focus on helping humanity.
With that in mind he already fixated his sight on Sebrof, he's the main suspect that most likely orchestrated Rex's assassination which is perfect since the public is celebrating the downfall of the Vampire Stronghold.
Rex grinds his teeth even harder the more he thought about it.
Both of his fists are clenched so hard that even his fingernails slowly turned into claws, they stabbed his palm judging from the blood seeping out of his clenched fists. Problems wouldn't stop even for a second, and that's the reality of the world, Rex's world.
'I need to somehow make humanity accept me as a Werewolf...', Rex thought determinedly.
After knowing what he should do next with his odyssey of revenge has ended, he turned around before touching Ruston's corpse on the shoulder lightly. With a thought, he puts Ruston's corpse away in his inventory.
Even though Ruston is at fault, Rex now knows where he came from.
It's the least he could do to give Ruston a proper burial at a remote place, but that needs to be postponed as he needs to help the others from the Shapeshifter and also the attacker that might still be there.
Turning around once more, Rex looks at the destroyed tombstones of his actual parents.
An impulse inside tells him to store his actual parent's coffins in the inventory so that he can move them, but the other side of him tells him that it would be disrespectful. Finding no immediate answer he can come out with, Rex can only sigh lightly.
"Both of you can rest peacefully now, I'll be back to make your home proper..."
Keeping his eyes on the rubbles from the destroyed tombstones, Rex prayed for them briefly before his body suddenly vanished from the spot as if he were never there. Like a ghost in this abandoned city.
Meanwhile, on the other side of Ratmawati City.
Adhara jumped to the sky like a pouncing predator with her glowing white eyes fixated on a figure that wears a black outfit covered with a black robe, this figure is semi-translucent which made it very hard to be spotted.
But the figure underestimated the vision of a Werewolf of Adhara's caliber.
Without even noticing Adhara is in the sky on the figure's back, the figure kept sneakily sprinting forward but then it finally realized the ominous presence on its back. Even though the figure finally sensed Adhara, it was a tad too late for him.
Slash!
Bam!
Catching the figure in surprise, Adhara managed to swipe her claws directly at the figure's body.
Vicious bloodied claw marks were left on the figure's back ripping through the black robe and also the figure's skin easily, there was a shock in the figure's eyes as he looks back while grunting in pain from the attack.
Although it was a deep wound, the figure recovered quickly and stopped a distance away.
Looking at Adahra's Werewolf form makes the figure knit his eyebrows together, he takes out two handguns from his waist before going to his battle stance. But from the looks of it, the figure seems to not want to fight with Adhara.
It's clear from the way his eyes moved left and right trying to find a way to escape.
While also being an Awakened, Adhara should be able to sense the mana the user is using but she finds out that she can't. Rationalizing the situation should be the first move, but Adhara is already overwhelmed with blood thirst.
Roar!!
Bearing her very sharp teeth and claws, Adhara makes the first move to attack once again.
Swoosh!
The figure was surprised by Adhara's speed judging from his enlarging eyes, but the shock increased when Adhara activate her purple fire alongside her purple serpent spirit on the back which amplifies her power by a notch.
Out of all the myriads beings the Supernatural brought, nothing was like this.
A Werewolf shouldn't be able to interact with any element except for the lunar element, but Adhara broke that stigma which can surprise even the most veteran humans and oldest Supernatural alive today.
It's only because of Rex's help can she do something like this.
Not intending for Adhara to come close, the figure jumps back while firing a couple of shots.
Bam!
Bam!
Adhara was not dodging the bullets at all at first, her body is very resilient and her regenerative ability is stronger than most Werewolves out there so she doesn't feel the need to dodge the bullets. But then realized that the bullets are made of silver.
Even though it surprised her, the bullets are not enough to penetrate deep into her tough skin.
Silver weakened her a little bit but her bloodline started to circulate and in just a moment the silver weakening effect vanished, and this made her even more endearing finding that the silver bullets are not that effective on her.
Despite using silver bullets that are produced by the SCO, concluding that this person is from the SCO is not viable. Not only the black hands but many Awakened had also used these silver bullets.
With the alliance between them, SCO and UWO share their weapons against Supernaturals.
Using silver bullets manufactured by the SCO doesn't indicate that the person is from the SCO, that just shows that at the very least this figure belongs to a big organization and has a person of high standing as his backer.
But with her Anti-Werewolf bloodline, she's more resilient than ever.
Even though the figure is trying his best to run away and avoid the fight, Adhara's speed increases even more with the help of small explosions beneath her feet using her purple fire element. It made the distance between them shorter and shorter.
In just a moment, Adhara reaches the figure with one strong jump.
From the looks of it, her claws will connect with the figure's head which will definitely be vital for the figure. At the very least, half of the figure's head would be dismantled if her attack landed as they were supposed to.
But when the claws were about to connect, she frowns seeing her claws go through the figure.
Like hitting a ghostly object Adhara's claws went through the figure's head, and her claws feel a bit warm from passing the figure's body. But despite the surprise and bloodlust she can still think and rationalize enough to sense the mana the figure is using.
Without a doubt, the figure just used a spell just now.
'Light mana... so that's why this man doesn't want to use his element', Adhara thought with a devious grin realizing the reasoning behind the figure's action, now it made sense to her.
At first, Adhara thought that this figure has wears something that can hide his elemental mana.
But turns out the figure is not wearing anything of that sort but instead refrains from using his element, Light Elementalist is not that common like the five basic elementals which will narrow down their search list.
It's going to expose him quicker if Adhara knows that he's a Light Elementalist.
Even the figure knows that he has exposed his identity but he has no choice since Adhara's claws were about to connect. In a fit of anger, the figure wanted to kick Adhara away and create some distance between them.
Out of a sudden, something shocking happened that surprised the figure so much.
Just like what Adhara experienced earlier, the figure's feet went through Adhara's body which caught him by surprise. It's similar to the spell he used earlier, or maybe even greater making the grin on Adhara's face grow even wider.
Adhara used the innate ability she inherited from the White Omicron, the Intangible Phasing.
The figure's surprised look is natural since even Rex was surprised by this ability of hers, it allows her to be untouchable for a certain period and this effect is absolute. Not even attacking the soul or the dimension where she was in can reach her.
Perfect phasing, a terrifying skill of the White Omicron. Both of their bodies went past each other.
While the figure was caught in surprise, Adhara takes advantage of this to swipe her burning claws amplified with the purple fire and wind element right on the figure's face. Unlike Adhara's ability, the figure needs to be conscious of activating the spell he just used earlier.
Bam!
"Arrgghh!!", the figure screamed feeling the burning sensation on his face.
Claw marks that charred his skin were left on the side of his face, and it was gruesome to look at.
With the Anti-Werewolf bloodline, Adhara becomes a menacing Werewolf that is now sitting on the top Battle Prowess Hierarchy of the Silverstar Pack after beating Gistella in a full-brawl fight in the stadium before. Now her power is increased by the bloodlust inside of her.
Light footsteps can be heard approaching the figure that is crouching on the ground.
Adhara with her animalistic eyes stopped a couple of steps away before she asked with her threatening tone, "Who is the one that fired the white arrow? Answer me right now, it's going to determine what will happen in the next few minutes..."
"With the death of Rex, your times with humanity will end, Werewolf...", the figure chuckled.
Upon hearing this Adhara can't help but frown, she also frowned even more when she saw the figure wearing a black mask that is covering his face. But she frowns when she finds this figure's eyes are familiar, she then walks closer intending to take the mask off.
But then suddenly, "Great Spell, Beam of Eminence!"
Boom!
Even with her enhanced reflex, Adhara got hit by a beam of light right on her right chest.
"Haarghh!", Adhara grunted as she got pushed back from the beam of light hitting his right chest, she recovered not long after and saw blood gushing out of her right chest. It actually managed to cut in deep.
Looking back at the figure, Adhara growled, 'Strong... he must be at the peak of the seventh rank!'
The figure slowly stood up before he suddenly exposes the terrifying amount of light mana that he possesses, it climbs high and even made the ground trembles uncontrollably. Slowly but surely his skin cracks but instead of blood, it exposes a completely white light.
It's like holy linings that spread across his body and even made his eyes completely white.
Upon witnessing this Adhara can't help but grit her teeth in realization, this kind of change can only indicate one thing, Gladiator Form, 'He's not a seventh-rank Awakened, he's an actual eighth-rank Awakened!'
While the figure's entire body and clothes are starting to change, he cracks a mocking grin.
"I was tasked to retrieve back Rex's corpse without fighting any of you, but one death wouldn't matter that much. Probably would get an earful, but that's going to be it. My apologies for saying this too late, but you don't have the strength to kill me from the start!"
BOOM!!
