Rex has felt helpless a moment before when the thought of not being able to get back to the castle and notify the others lingered in his mind, but now he was not lost anymore. A convenient meeting between him and Delta happened, and the journey has become way faster compared to earlier.
If before he would arrive back in a few days, now he can arrive back at the first streak of light.
"Keep going straight, when you see a river turn left," Rex told Delta the way while pointing with his index finger. His body doesn't move at all, he was lying on Delta's back with a tired and pale expression on his face.
Due to the pain and fatigue gnawing at his body, he was not able to keep his body straight.
Rex can only lie his chest and head on Delta's back while his arms and legs dangle on the sides, he has little to no strength left. It would be bad if they encounter a problematic opponent throughout the way, so they have been taking a longer but safer route.
But it wouldn't take long for them to reach back thanks to Delta's expertise in speed.
In just an hour of galloping through the different landscapes with white electricity snakes sizzling around them, a fifth of the journey has been passed which is much faster than Rex had anticipated. Maybe Detla was worried about him so she tries to be as fast as possible.
'System, with only using the moonlight, how long will I recover from these wounds?'
<Scanning the user's body...>
<Scan Complete!>
<It would take approximately 3 to 7 days until the user can recover completely with the healing aid of the moonlight, but it might take longer than that to recover fully without the healing aid of the moonlight>
Rex can only sighs, that's not good news for him if he needs 7 days to recover to his peak.
Since he was lucky that the Executor doesn't kill him right there, he needs to take this luck to his absolute advantage and gets stronger quickly. Only by doing that can he make the Executor regret letting him go right there.
Due to that, every second counts. Rex doesn't know when the Executor will move and strike.
Not wanting to give up against the time stated by the system, he decided to ask again, 'System, is there any way for me to hasten the healing process aside from the moonlight energy? Or do you have any recommendation for the current predicament?'
<Calculating answer...>
<Healing ability given by Luna Energy will fasten the healing process. Assigning the current power of the Luna, the healing process would be hastened by 10%. It's advised that the user start thinking about supporting roles, the user's regenerative ability would find it hard to sustain numerous injuries such as right now>
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt'Are you suggesting for me to make Evelyn's Werewolf side stronger?' Rex asked.
<Yes.>
As soon as he received the answer he started to think of a way to make Evelyn stronger, 'Making Evelyn stronger huh... Do I need to be intimate with Evelyn numerous times? But that would take too long to make her viably stronger, I need other ways to help her get stronger'
'Since you recommend it to me, you must have a way to make Evelyn decently stronger'
<Yes, there's something that can make the Luna decently stronger. But the user doesn't have enough gold to buy the associated item, it will cost 20 million gold to buy the item. Currently, the user only has less than 4 million gold>
Rex started to ponder while he feels Delta's muscles moving underneath her skin.
Although he doesn't have sufficient gold to buy the item that the user is suggesting, there's one way that he could get that item. But since it only cost 20 million gold, Rex was hesitant as it's not that expensive.
But time is of the essence right now, collecting 16 million gold would take too much time from him.
Feeling a little bit heavy to use these precious chances, he decided to just buy it without thinking much. 'System, use my two remaining chances to buy the item you're talking about. It's hard for me to give the chances up but just use it' he said quickly, firming his decision.
<Does the user wants to use the two free chances to buy Map of the Fated Mountain?>
'Map of the Fated Mountain? So it's a place that I need to go to, huh...' Rex reflected while reading the holographic box in his vision. Pausing for a moment, he sighs in defeat before he finally answered with a heavy heart. 'Yes, I'm sure.'
Immediately after he said that a Map of the Fated Mountain appeared in his inventory.
Clicking the item using his mind, a description popped in front of him, giving an explanation of what the item is all about. As he has nothing else to do and his body is weak, he decided to read the explanation to grasp how to use the Map of the Fated Mountain.
<Map of the Fated Mountain>
It's an ancient map that leads to the place where the First Luna, Dalia Surret was turned and rebirth and mated with the Original Werewolf. Powerful energies linger in the Fated Mountain because of this unnatural event, but the blessed energy was embedded inside the mountain and unable to be used or harvested through normal means. Map of the Fated Mountain knows the location and also has the key to evoke the blessed energy to be used.
Upon reading this, Rex was quite surprised that the Fated Mountain is that sacred.
Not only was that place hosting the birth of the first Luna, but it also hosted the mating between the first Luna and the Original Werewolf. Even though he doesn't know how much energy lingers inside, he knows that it wouldn't be a measly amount.
The Original Werewolf was there, so there's no way that the energy it has is only measly.
'So basically, I need to go there and mate with Evelyn. If it's that easy, there shouldn't be a problem with doing it in the next few days' Rex thought, wanting to finish the deeds quickly so that Evelyn can become stronger and become the ultimate support.
But he retracted his thought when he takes out the map and saw the location of the mountain.
Map of the Fated Mountain takes a form of a metallic ink-black ball, it can transform into a square-shaped object by tapping a button at the center. Soon the ball turned into a map with black stone edges, and there was a purple hue highlighting a pale spot on the map.
As the center always moved following Delta's movement, Rex can pinpoint the location exactly.
'If I'm not wrong, the Fated Mountain should be near the heart of the Werewolf Territory. Damn it, why can't it be in a more accessible spot...' Rex cursed inside his head, the location is too troublesome as he needs to go past the Vampire Territory before the Werewolf Territory if he departs from the castle.
More than the Supernaturals, the humans would probably invade the Supernatural soon enough.
With the Executor's presence, there's no chance that they would take a backfoot. But then again, remembering the scene where Brigitta was kneeling and apologizing, there might be some resistance by the humans against the Executor.
For the next few days, Rex is quite sure that humanity will undergo a huge change.
The United World Organization and the Federal Awakened Agency under the Elpida Alliance and the independent Stygian Crow Organization would most likely be the ones that changed the most. In terms of influence, the Executor would definitely take over them.
Not that Rex cares about them though, they were the ones that wanted this.
At the very least, the humans wouldn't be active in these few days or possibly weeks.
"Delta, stop for a moment!" Rex suddenly exclaimed, halting Delta's gallop almost instantly.
Without even saying anything to Delta he quickly jumps down and leans his hand on a rock before he started vomiting blood once again, his internal organs were in a mess, he really needs Evelyn to be with him and help him heal better.
Rex lets out the dark blood that forcing through his throat before he sat down on the ground.
About a quarter of a mile on the left, there was a lake that is quite big. It lay under the sky and the stars like a star-spangled carpet, a boast by mother nature herself. The surface of the water shone with a bright sheen in the moonlight and glittered like it was decorated with small diamonds.
It was a sight so beautiful that it can mesmerize anyone's iris.
"Even though I want to get back quickly, I think my internal organs are not able to withstand the shaking from riding you, Delta. Let's rest here for a bit..." Rex mutters with a weak smile, it was the first time that he become this weak ever since he turned into a Werewolf.
Mortal wounds are not a problem for him. But if imbued with Chaos element, this is the result.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDelta nudges her head over gently, trying to show her concern for Rex. Just then he suddenly thought of something, 'Hmm... Instead of making her stronger, would it be better for me to make her one of the Silverstar Pack?', he thought while rubbing Delta's head.
Rex doesn't know where this came from, but it just hits him.
Since he has a total of 10 available slots for the Silverstar Pack member, he can add 5 more to the pack. More than that, he doesn't need to be picky as long as the targeted individuals have numerous gifts inside their bodies.
Making them stronger would be a piece of cake for Rex, he doesn't need to think about that.
'But it's better if she also can turn into her beast form, then I can still have a mount. I'll just think about it some more before deciding' Rex thought before he hovered toward the edge of the lake, he looked at his damaged reflection on the surface of the water.
Looking at his own face riddled with blood and wounds, he smiled wryly, 'I'm a mess...'
Reaching into the beautiful surface of the water with his right hand, he scoops a handful of water before he splashes it against his face. It feels refreshing to feel water after a gruesome battle, he then started to wash the blood on his face and body.
Of course, he skips the gruesome wounds that are still bleeding.
While he was cleaning himself with Delta on the back, keeping an eye around carefully, a glimpse of Kyran's image appear on the surface of the water. Rex's hands stopped when he saw this, and a surge of emotions welled up inside of him.
'Kyran... Tch! If only the Ice and Snow Full Moon was not on that bad day' Rex complained.
Although Kyran was reckless in sacrificing himself in order to get Evelyn back, he definitely did that knowing that if he don't then the Ice and Snow Full Moon's effect will hibernate Rex and eventually the entire Silverstar Pack.
It was just really unfortunate that he went missing, and Rex doesn't have anyone to blame.
Clenching his fist he closes his eyes trying to calm himself down, the wounds would only bleed quicker if he becomes angry and he can't afford to do that. At a slow and steady pace, he inhales and exhales the fresh air brought by nature.
But as he was doing that, his eyes jolted open when he heard Delta growl on the back.
Rex glanced to the back and find Delta baring her sharp fangs and also growling heavily while facing up, this confuses him. When he follow her gaze and look up, his eyes widened seeing a figure levitating above the lake right now.
The surprise was short-lived, and Rex's expression ease a bit realizing the figure above the lake.
Out of everything, he feels excited to see the figure finally show itself once again. Rex doesn't know where this will go, but it seems it would be a good thing seeing that there's no malice in the figure's deep eyes.
"I'm not expecting to see you again due to our little problem, but I can't lie that I'm excited"
"Countess of the Dark Lunirich..."
