The Invincible Full-Moon System

Even though he was surprised, this is not the time to be stunned like this.

At the sight of Calidora that for some reason instantly started attacking the insectoid cursed creature strongly, Rex decided to cancel activating his King Mark and immediately dashed straight at the hooded cursed creature.

Gistella was still screaming in pain, and her agony fueled his anger endlessly.

"Raarggh!!"

Clang!

Charging his newly achieved eighth-rank realm Lunar Elements, a weapon, condensed from an intense amount of Lunar Mana appeared in his hand and radiated with power. 'Amanir, if you want to help, now is the time'

[Okay, I'll put everything into the halberd!]

Immediately after, Rex can feel the halberd in his hand trembles with more power.

Rex then swung the halberd with a mighty force while simultaneously cloaking his red force over to the halberd, propelling its power to another degree, a swing that can injure even ninth-rank realm entities.

Swoosh!

Clang!

But the hooded cursed creature reacted quickly and parried the attack with its scythe.

Upon seeing that his halberd alongside the power it brings was stopped mid-track, Rex clenched his jaw strongly as he can't comprehend how can this hooded cursed creature be this strong.

If it was able to match him in strength, then it must also be a ninth-rank realm entity.

'System, I swear that its aura is not as suppressing as other ninth-rank realm entities. Even Giana has ten times of suppressing aura than this thing, how can this happen?!' Rex exclaimed inside his head.

<Scanning the supposed cursed creature...>

As their weapons are clashing right now, the System began the scanning process.

<Dealkandrax has used one of the 5 Forbidden Conjour of the Grimoire, Sacrificial Lamb. It's a powerful twelfth-epiphany cursed conjour that fragmented the regular cursed energy inside of it into a more powerful version in exchange for a disturbing amount of life force, turning Dealkandrax into an Anathema Curse, invulnerable to anything aside from the cursed energy of its own>

Rex reads the System's explanation before he gritted his teeth, 'So I can't do anything to it?!'

<Severing the ties between Dealkandrax and Gistella will give the user a fighting chance to safe Gistella. It will be very hard to do that due to the higher version of the cursed energy, but not impossible for the user>

Nodding his head, his eyes instantly shifted to Dealkandrax's other hand.

It was the hand that is extracting the curse from Gistella's body, and causing her extreme pain. At this moment, Rex instantly expands his senses to the absolute limit and activates his Extreme State skill.

Just like that, he engaged in fierce combat against Dealkandrax.

Despite being unable to do anything to hurt Dealkandrax due to the forbidden conjour, Rex was still able to push it back and disturb it from whatever it was doing to Gistella. Each of his strikes was fueled with strength beyond comprehension.

Clang!

Clang!

Slash!

As their clash continues, they find themselves outside of the castle and land in the city.

'System, did you manage to sense the extraction process of the curse inside Gistella? If you have, then put a timer until the extraction process is completed. And also, tell me what would happen to Gistella if the curse is extracted completely?' Rex thought as he stands firm in his lowered battle-ready stance.

<Extraction Process: 17%>

<Due to the lack of focus and forceful nature of the extraction process, if Dealkandrax succeeds in extracting the curse inside Gistella's body, she will die as a result as the curse is already bonded with her>

<Sudden Quest!>

Save the user's third Beta, Gistella from the influence of Dealkandrax and the Witch of Chaos' ploy. As the Alpha of the Silverstar Pack, failure in protecting the pack members will not be tolerated.

Time Limit: 2 Minutes 37 Seconds

Quest Failure: Death of Gistella and a permanent 50% increase in the user's Berserk Stat.

Quest Reward: 300 Billion Exp, Unbinding Curse Technique, and Damned Specter Skill.

As soon as he read through the notifications from the System, Rex's entire demeanor changed dramatically. Each of his horns started to glow with kingly energy, he then raises his gaze and cast a hateful glare at Dealkandrax, baring his sharp fangs and growling violently.

In an instant, Rex disappeared from his spot and reappeared above Dealkandrax.

Harboring a fierce glint in his eyes, capable of striking fear in the strongest entities in the whole entire world, Rex threw the halberd in his hand straight at the damned creature. It managed to parry it only to face a powerful downward slash from Rex's claws.

KABOOM!

Fueled with the Unholy Claws of the Reaper skill, the Origin energy in his claws was thick.

Under the sundering might behind his attack, Dealkandrax fell to one of its knees as the force reverberated through its entire body before seeping into the ground, spreading a crack around the entire area.

Considering that this is Dargena City, the crack indicates the terrifying strength Rex possesses.

Even Flunra who is a capable entity in this current era can only leave a dent in the wall of a building in Dargena City with a serious punch. But under Rex's fearsome strength, the material behaved as if it was like any other normal material, easily broken.

Moreover, inside the domain of Dargena City, Rex has a natural boost as its owner.

As he feeds the castle with Elemental Stones before, he unlocked not only the Circling Sentinel Upgrades but also an additional effect called Master of the Sanctuary, which gives him a stats boost of about 30%.

For someone as strong as him, 30% is an incredible amount.

In the future, his enemies would find it hard to take him out in his own territory thanks to this.

Despite the exponential increase in Rex's strength, Dealkandrax forcefully stands back up, resisting the attack thanks to its condition. Raising its gaze, it then fired cursed energy from both of its eye sockets.

Swish!

Crash!

Rex didn't have the time to react as he was propelled away.

But that attack did nothing to him, Dealkandrax might be invulnerable to any damage from him, yet it also can't do anything to him. Although that being the case, it's a win situation for Dealkandrax as it only wanted the curse instead of fighting with Rex.

Getting up from the rubble, Rex wanted to dash in again but his eyes darted elsewhere.

Just like him and Dealkandrax, Calidora is also fighting against the insectoid creature, causing reckless damage to the surroundings. None of the Supernaturals dared to close into their fights for obvious reasons.

While briefly inspecting their fight, Rex's eyebrows dipped when he noticed something.

'Did she manage to damage that insectoid creature...?'

Albeit their movement was very fast, Rex can see that the insectoid creature sustain numerous slashes across its body, and blood are coming from them. It was also at that moment that he finds that Calidora has a mix of cursed energy in her attacks.

Something that caught Rex off-guard as it turns out, she's able to use cursed energy.

Even though he was reluctant to admit this, but he needs Calidora's help to sever the ties Dealkandrax has with Gistella. It's no time to indulge in the past, he needs to be conscious of the possibilities and be flexible.

'Okay, Amanir, give me everything you got!' Rex exclaimed inside his head.

Just like that, a pair of light bluish wings burst out of his back as his Spirit Gladiator Form was activated. In an instant, he decided to rush at the insectoid creature to hurt it and buy them enough time to focus on Dealkandrax.

Swoosh!

Rex covers immense distance with one leap as his entire body gleams with spirit energy.

"Pneuma Spell..."

Fixating his eyes on the insectoid creature, Calidora leaped back when she saw its body was starting to be engulfed in glowing stones, trapping it in place. A flash of dense lunar spirit energy gathered into Rex's eyes, shooting a brilliant blue light.

"Moonstone Exhibition"

Screech!!

The insectoid creature was completely trapped, struggling helplessly in the grip of the stone.

But it was not able to do anything to the gripping Pneuma Spell that layered its entire body in stone, turning it into a statue for a moment. It was then Rex arrived, gathering every single bit of power to punch the insectoid creature.

Calidora also did the same, punching the insectoid creature and exploding her blood energy.

BAM!!

Under the combined strength of the two of them, the insectoid creature screeched as it was propelled all the way to the other side of Dargena City, crashing onto the wall and shaking the entire place.

After doing that, Rex then immediately said, "Calidora, I need your help"

Upon hearing the words that came out of Rex's mouth, a sweet chuckle escape Calidora's plump lips as she tries to cover the amused smile on her face. It was way out of proportion when her chuckle becomes even more intense.

"H-He called my name..." Calidora utters, her Eyes of Terror keeps on switching violently.

<Time Limit: 1 Minute 22 Seconds>

Rex doesn't have the time to deal with this so he quickly turns to face Dealkandrax who is already about to flee Dargena City with Gistella, "Just help me take that one down, and I'll do one thing for you, anything"

Not even responding, Calidora's blood boiled as she instantly rushed at Dealkandrax.

Swoosh!

From the back, Rex also chased after her but he finds that his vision is blurry. Not his entire vision though, only Calidora's figure that seems to be doubled, blinking in and out of reality unnaturally.

It dazed Rex but he suppressed it knowing that Gistella is in danger.

As it seems, the offer given by Rex was motivation enough since Calidora already summoned thousands of blood bats and control them to swarm Dealkandrax from all sides, trapping it in the center.

Upon seeing the same phenomena, Dealkandrax feels annoyed, "You again..."

"I told you, I will not let you go... not until I can suck the blood out of you and watch you scream in pain" Calidora's deep crimson eyes blazed, activating the Eyes of Terror and trucking Dealkandrax with a powerful migraine.

Just like before, Dealkandrax was susceptible to her Eyes of Terror.

Not that her Eyes of Terror is naturally a counter to cursed creatures, but she imbued it enough with her own cursed energy that can somehow affect Dealkandrax. Even Rex who was watching this from behind was surprised.

Something like this surprises him, especially knowing Dealkandrax's condition.

'The System said that Dealkandrax is a twelfth-epiphany Anathema Curse, how can her cursed energy reach this degree? Did she train in the way of the curse all this time when I was dealing with the Executor?' Rex thought with a frown.

Rex doesn't know any other cursed creature that is in the twelfth-epiphany realm.

But somehow Calidora's cursed energy can reach that high in such a small timeframe. Although he knows that Calidora is linked to him, he has never learned about curses, so she must've done this on her own.

As he was thinking about it, something struck Rex's mind.

'System, you said earlier that I need a source to conjure and use curse powers, right?'

<Yes, curse powers need a source that will act as fuel>

Upon reading this, Rex's expression changed from a surprised one into a frown. A small piece of thought enters his mind as he reads this, 'If we're talking about a source, does the Eternal Curse considered a source...?'

<Yes, Eternal Curse is a Twelfth-Epiphany Natural Curse, suitable to be a powerful source>

Just like that, Rex's expression turns into a troubled one as he now knows where Calidora is gaining the curse power from. She turns out to be cultivating the Eternal Curse to achieve that. 'So, if I want to use curse power to fight against the Executor, does that mean I need Calidora?'

eαglesnᴏνel <Very likely, yes. The Eternal Curse bonded the user and Caldiora for eternity>

'God, damn it... I was hoping that it was not going to be the case' Rex cursed inside his head.
