Chapter 1081 Mortality

Chapter 1081 Mortality

An increase in aura that surpassed the limit set by the First Breath would be punished.

But the punishment for casting a spell above the limit was even greater than that of aura, one point that made none of the beings at this current moment dare to evoke powerful abilities. It was too severe for anyone to sustain.

Only the Executor dared to do that, and he was still careful in doing so.

It all changed completely when he broke the limiter by turning into his Gladiator Form.

Not being held back by the limiter, he became bolder with his spells.

Similarly, now that Rex has breached the limit of the world with the help of the Countess—he can access his stronger skills. One of them was the Night of the Full-Moon Dome, sponsored by the Countess herself.

Rex shrouded the entire battlefield with the blanket of the night.

Aside from being forced to be offensive, the Supernatural Army has one more disadvantage.

Such as the fight happened during the day, a time of weakness for Supernaturals.

Despite wanting to fight when the sky was already black so that their nocturnal nature would take effect and make them stronger—the Executor and the Human Army picked a time when the Supernaturals were at their weakest, during the day.

Since the Supernatural Army was defending the creek, they didn't have the luxury to choose.

All they could do was fend off the Human Army at the time of their enemy's choosing.

However, with Rex's dome, that wasn't the case anymore.

Braced by the loving arms of the night, the Supernaturals experienced a big power boost.

Utilize your anger, but don't let it consume your mind.

Making the decision to use the anger he held back to his own advantage, his power soared to the sky but he needed to be careful not to let it consume him. Teetering at the corner of losing his mind, Rex breathed and accustomed himself to his power.

It was safe to say that he had never been this strong before.

"Help deal with the opposing army, he needs them as a sacrifice to enter the creek," He said.

Upon hearing this, the others nodded their heads in understanding.

None of them know why the Executor needed to make a sacrifice, but that's not important.

"Evelyn, you stick close with Calidora—she'll protect you," Rex added.

Even though some of Evelyn's Luna energy had been taken away, she was still the Luna, and it would be better if she didn't join the fight to keep the boost from her presence active—but if it came down to it, she would still need to fight.

Casting a glance to her side, Evelyn could see Calidora giving her a teasing smirk.

A sight that made her click her tongue in displeasure.

Crash!

Just then, Flunra and Kyran were sent screeching back to Rex's side, vomiting blood.

"He's too strong, he could even sense me in the Twilight Realm," Flunra complained seriously.

Kyran also nodded, he couldn't damage the Executor at all.

Despite both of their enhancements, propelling them to the strongest they have ever been, it wasn't enough to do anything to the Executor. More than anything—the two could only keep the Executor company in defense.

Upon hearing this, Rex cackled, expecting this outcome.

Even he, himself couldn't hurt the Executor much earlier—despite using his all.

So it's natural for them to fail to do it too.

"It's good enough. For you to be able to stall the Executor in that state is good enough," Rex praised, smiling mysteriously. "keep doing that. Distract him every time he tries to attack me—I'll do the rest"

Boom!

Rex's aura exploded once again, but this time, it went over to the others.

Confused for a second, the others looked down at their bodies covered in the grace of Rex's energy. All of them thought that it was his kingly energy at first, but turns out it wasn't, it was divine energy instead.

Just like that, the Countess' blessing also helped them sustain the First Breath's suppression.

Smirking, Rex lowered his stance with his eyes flickering ferociously.

He grabbed his weapons again and prepared to resume his great detrimental battle.

Despite being able to react quickly—instinctively crossing his other arm to shield his torso, while also summoning a chaos-protective barrier, the Executor's eyes bulged in alarm when the barrier shattered upon impact, and left his arm numb from the force of the punch.

Not only that, he was also pushed back dozens of meters away due to the red beam.

Bending his torso down, the Executor was utterly surprised.

He struggled to wrap his mind around what had happened to him.

"Kahkk!"

A sudden cough erupted from his lips, spraying a mouthful of blood into the air.

As the crimson droplets splattered against the ground—the Executor's vision swarmed in a haze of pain and confusion. Raising his trembling hands, he gazed down at his palm before he sucked in a cold breath.

Looking at his hands, stained with his own life's essence, he was incredulous.

'I- I'm... I'm bleeding? Me, one of the noble Executors, the Fifthborn—bled from a fight...?'

Just then, the Executor was hit by a moment of realization.

The Executor could feel a profound sense of vulnerability washed over him—a sensation that he never felt before. His certainty of his invincibility shattered, replaced by a stark awareness of his mortality.

It was a sense of vulnerability that he had never felt before

Raising his gaze, still in disbelief, he saw Rex standing in front of him dauntingly.

Following that, the Executor saw fast shadows coming from Rex's behind, moving past him.

Glancing over his shoulders, he saw that the Silverstar Pack was on the move.

Even Rex was surprised to see them heading to the army instead of stalling the Executor.

What are they doing? Flunra and Kyran should've stalled the Executor.

Shifting from Rex's command, the others—Flunra, Kyran, Adhara, Evelyn, and Calidora, head over to the Human Army in haste. Their legs were blurry from how quickly they were moving across the battlefield.

"Move as we planned!" Adhara shouted, giving a cue to the others.

Agreeing with silent determination—Flunra and Kyran proceeded toward the opposing army while Calidora, Adhara, and Evelyn spread across the Supernatural ranks. Each one of them strategically positioned themselves at various points within the army.

Upon reaching their stations, their eyes flickered with readiness.

On the other hand, Flunra and Kyran pierced through the battlefield like an arrow.

Sprinting through the lethal zone between the Human Army and the Supernatural Army, the duo was pointed at by dozens of barrels as they got close. At the sight of them approaching—the Human Army fired a barrage of bullets and shells towards him.

But even then, both were too strong and easily deflected or outright ignored the barrage.

Similarly to the girls, the two separated and infiltrated the human ranks.

All Archdemons that were fighting directly before the Human Army saw two figures sprinting past them and piercing the opposing army with relative ease. Maltrox who was slowly being fatigued by the fight saw Kyran going past him.

Just then, his demonic eyes dilated seeing a piece of human machinery aiming at Kyran.

It was a hidden weapon that the Human Army had.

One that emanates a dangerous air, pressuring Maltrox to not get any nearer to it.

Unfazed by the menacing presence of the military's colossal canon, Kyran paid it little heed as he deftly maneuvered through the battlefield. His evasive tactics were not born of sheer recklessness but strategic agility.

Not that he was not careful, but he made sure the canon could aim him properly.

He made sure if the canon shot, there would be massive friendly casualties for the humans.

A moment later, Kyran and Flunra reached their designated places.

Rather than resorting to lethal force against the humans that were blocking their way, both opted to incapacitate or ignore them—focusing on the plan in their minds. Raising up their hands skyward, they revealed distinct marks etched upon their palms.

Similarly, Adhara, Evelyn, and Calidora also bore the same mark.

But different than the ones Kyran and Flunra have that were glowing red, the ones on their palms were light blue and emitted a soothing energy. Smirking with confidence, the five of them chanted at the same time, activating the mark.

Swoosh!

Instantly after their chant, the marks exploded, firing strings of energy to their surroundings.

Upon seeing this from the distance, Rex's eyes widened.

"Wait—is that...?"
