The Invincible Full-Moon System
Chapter 450 Mansion Beside The Ice CascadeLater that afternoon,
After leaving the Disaster Squad to be beaten up again by Gistella, Rex calls a couple of people before an Awakened that guards the mansion comes and finds him inside.
Rex is currently reading something on his phone before he saw the Awakened approach him.
"Sir Rex, these are the last two letters", the Awakened said.
Hearing this, Rex nodded his head before taking the two letters and putting them on the table in front of him, there are also two other letters on the table beside the one which he just got.
With the four letters placed in front of him, Rex opens them one by one and reads the content.
Inside all of the letters that he just received are lists of four families ranked from one to four, Rex is not familiar with all of the families on the lists.
After scanning for a bit, Rex finds one letter that is different than the others.
Across all of the four letters, each one of them gave the lists identical except for one letter that has the first listed family different than the others.
The first listed family should've been the Mistin Family,
But instead of the Mistin Family, the letter that is different than the others listed Halpen Family instead that caught Rex's attention.
While he's looking at the four letters in thought, the sound of the door closing can be heard.
Adhara who just finished meditating looks down and finds Rex sitting in the guest room thinking, there are four letters on the table which spike her interest.
"What are you thinking about?", She asks while descending the stairs.
Rex didn't answer her as he was currently inside his thoughts, he didn't even move when Adhara is already sitting beside her and reading the letters.
Scanning the letters for a bit, Adhara also finds the same particular letter.
A frown appears on Adhara's face before she glances at Rex, "What are these lists?"
"You said that there are four families from the top ten that don't like me right? I asked the Patterson, Rirgas, Rojas, and Safran family to check who those four are and everyone gave the same lists except the Rirgas Family...", Rex replied with a frown.
Hearing this, Adhara was also put into thought as she also finds this odd.
Rex knows that the Rirgas Family is the weakest Family amongst the four families he asked for help, but identifying the families from the top ten that will test him shouldn't be that hard.
With the resources as a family in the 25 Golden Crest, this much surely easy for them.
But turns out the lists of families given by the Rirgas Family are different, and from this Rex slowly realizes what this meant and so is Adhara, "Do they know you're asking for the same lists from the four families?"
"No... I purposefully told them that I'm asking this only to them", Rex mutters lightly.
Just from this alone, Adhara's face darkened, "Should we visit the Rirgas Family?"
"From my perspective, they are hiding the Mistin Family by putting the Halpen Family in there. Rirgas Family is not on our side", she added.
Hearing this, Rex also nodded his head as he also came to the same conclusion.
If each of the four families thought that Rex only asks them for this information specifically, then it'll be easy to differentiate a fake friend among them.
Rirgas Family sent a different list from the others,
The others gave Rex a list that is identical, only the Rirgas Family sent a different list and this is too much for a simple mistake on their part.
But still, Rex has thought of some other possibilities, "Or maybe they're threatened"
After thinking briefly, "Let's just give them a visit", Rex said before he stands up from his seat.
"We will make them an example for the other families, I'll tell Vargas about this and you go and tell Kyran, Edward, and Gistella to get ready", he added with a sinister glint in his eyes.
A moment later,
Rex and the others got out of a black sedan in sector 3B,
Sector 3B is known as the water sector since the city is separated by a huge man-made lake that spans the entire sector 3B, the place is not technologically advanced like sector 3E but they're the most advance in terms of magic ornaments and buildings.
Everything here no matter if it's a building, lamps on the street or even the transportation are all integrated with mana on them.
It's an eye-opener for anyone visiting for the first time,
The place feels really like a fantasy world from medieval times except with modern technology, everything around here is revolving around the usage of mana.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Rirgas Family's mansion is near the town hall just beside the Ice Cascade", Rex said.
He points at the other side of the lake, to get there they need to go across the bridge to their far-right, he then glances at the others again and said, "I'm going to a nearby hotel to meditate"
"You guys handle this matter, If anything happens I'll know", he added.
Hearing this, the three of them nodded their heads without questioning Rex's instruction.
With the Silverstar Family being born, Rex becomes the head family and if he did this on his own then his reputation will look bad so it's time to let them handle these things.
So the three of them will handle the matter with the Rirgas Family,
Before the three of them left, Rex tells Adhara to stretch her hand out.
The palm of Rex's hand glows with a rune before he grabs Adhara's hand, and a slight glow appears before Rex retracts back his hand.
Adhara looks at her hand before she saw the rune has been transferred to her palm.
She wanted to ask what the rune is for but Rex beat her to it, he points at the rune and explains, "Engrave that rune at the entrance of the mansion, do that before fighting them"
With that, Adhara nodded her head before the three of them dashed away.
Looking at their disappearing backs, Rex then walks along the street beside the beautiful man-made river while looking at the buildings on his side.
There are many magic shops here, he then decided to check out the shops.
Meanwhile,
Swoosh!
Adhara, Gistella, and Kyran are all strapped with their armors as they prepare themselves to attack the Rirgas Family to ask for their explanation.
The Rirgas Family is not in the top ten, so their mansion is not in sector two.
Although they probably can jump across the huge man-made lake, the lake turns out to be surrounded by a translucent blue barrier.
It's not painful when touching it, but the barrier is very sturdy.
Even if it's not sturdy, breaking the barrier just to jump across the lake would just be flashy and they don't want to attract any attention.
The bridge is decorated with sun symbols attached to strings,
It's the God's Lenience Celebration that is still ongoing, even sector 3B is celebrating this event, many people wearing costumes can also be seen as they hover around the passerby while showing off their costumes.
Even a couple of the celebrating people in costumes circles the three,
Without minding the celebrating people, Adhara and the others cross the bridge.
The three of them follows the street before they saw a glowing blue huge crystal-like ice the size of a building that is fenced in a square, it's shaped like a thick crystal and brightens up the street with its beautiful blue light.
Upon seeing this, Adhara looks at the sign in front of the crystal-like ice.
'Ice Cascade'
That is what the sign says,
Although she already saw this on the internet when they were on the way here, the Ice Cascade still mesmerized Adhara and the others as it is quite an attraction itself.
Just like what it looks like on the internet, the Ice Cascade is just like a waterfall.
But instead of water falling from the top, it's a mutation of mana that possess a physical form that resembles water as they fall from the top to the bottom.
When this mana reaches the middle, it slowly turns into mist before hitting the ground.
All of the mist that is produced by the falling mana gathers on the top again creating somekind of blue aurora before it turns back into the physical form again.
The process takes about half a minute before repeating again,
"The mansion should be at the back of the Ice Cascade, Kyran go check the place and count the guards guarding the mansion", Adhara instructed.
Hearing this, Kyran nodded his head before he disappears into the darkness.
Both Adhara and Gistella then walk to the side to get a better view of the mansion behind the Ice Cascade, they're observing while pretending to take pictures of the Ice Cascade trying to not be suspicious.
Just from a glance, there are at least four guards in front of the mansion.
While waiting for Kyran to come back, Gistella suddenly points at a blonde woman that seems to be heading to the mansion, "I recognize that human, Sabrina", she said.
Adhara looks at where Gistella is pointing before she squints her eyes, 'Sabrina huh...'
From the side, Adhara and Gistella are watching Sabrina who is supposed to be Vanessa's sister, they saw Sabrina sneaks around the guards which confuses them.
But this is nevertheless a good thing for them,
Adhara signals to Gistella with her head before they both dash away intending to intercept Sabrina, they did this without even the passerby noticing.
"Thankfully today the guards are few...", Sabrina mutters.
She's currently sneaking beside the Ice Cascade while eyeing the guards in front of the mansion, for some reason she seems to not want to get caught by the guards.
Sabrina waits for a perfect moment when the guards are conversing with each other.
She readies herself when she saw a gap that she can use to dash to the side of the mansion, but just as she puts some power on her legs, a hand suddenly covers her mouth before she got pulled away instantly without even the guards noticing.
Not intending to be pulled anymore, Sabrina's body started glowing light blue.
The ice mana in the surrounding started to get sucked by her body, but before she can even do anything her stomach got hit powerfully arching her stomach.
It gives enough time for her to get brought onto a rooftop of a building,
Brak!
Sabrina got tossed on the rooftop roughly before she raises her gaze intending to look who are the ones that dare to do this to her on her own turf.
In front of her stands two women,
One of them holds two daggers that emit violent and powerful mana, Sabrina was shocked when she saw that each dagger has a different element imbued in them.
While the other one is holding a shield with a cold and indifferent look on her face.
Upon looking at the woman holding a silver shield with her distinctive silver hair and crystal clear blue eyes, Sabrina widens her eyes in shock, "You're that woman with Rex!"
During the undead clearing mission, Sabrina saw Rex bring back a woman.
Although it's hard to look at her with the clothes she was wearing, her silver hair poked out and her bright blue eyes can still be seen faintly.
The shock is evident but she's more shocked when she realizes the other woman,
"A-Adhara?!", Sabrina exclaimed again.
With the appearance of Rex and Adhara barging during the official meeting between the UWO and the SCO, everyone knows her as Rex's woman including Sabrina.
Feeling confused, Sabrina then asks, "Why are you doing this?"
"Your family will be the example, the Silverstar Family will show how we deal with families that wanted to mess with us", Adhara replied with a cold tone.
Her body then started burning with violet fire that is blazingly hot after adding wind mana.
The fact that Adhara is a dual Elementalist alone gives quite a big shock to Sabrina, but now she said that the Silverstar Family will use her family as an example makes her speechless.
Adhara's eyes blaze with purple fire as she chanted, "Great Spell!"
Hearing this, Sabrina looks to the ground around her before she widens her eyes.
A line made of purple fire circles around her that emits a ridiculous amount of mana, before Adhara finishes chanting she creates an ice dome that surrounded her body.
"Fire Maelstorm!"
BOOM!
Just like before, a purple fire vortex bursts from the ground and it engulfs the ice dome in flame.
Adhara controls the Fire Maelstorm to make it small but concentrated instead, the heat coming from the purple fire vortex melts the ice dome slowly.
Sabrina is trapped as she looks around in horror,
Not only does she is a higher rank Awakened than her, but she has also been adjusting to the sixth rank realm years earlier than Adhara.
But to think that her ice dome imbued with spirit energy get melted this quick surprised her.
When she's thinking of a way out,
Crash!
Adhara suddenly tore through the ice dome with a thrust from her daggers, the Duality Daggers doesn't have any problem tearing through the ice dome.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWith the addition of the moonlight, her power rivals the upper mid-sixth rank realm.
Sabrina's pupil dilated as she saw Adhara break through her spell, she wanted to activate her spirit to make a commotion but she was way slower.
The left dagger glows with wind mana,
It boosts Adhara's speed as she suddenly already arrives in front of Sabrina,
Upon seeing Adhara is already so close to her, Sabrina can't even react, she saw Adhara swings her right dagger which is imbued with purple fire before blood splashes her face.
Splat!
Just using one swift motion, Adhara cuts off Sabrina's entire left arm.
Sabrina looks to the side and saw that her left arm is non-existent, she was utterly in disbelief upon seeing this as her nerves started to feel the pain.
But before she can scream in pain,
BAM!
Gistella appears behind her and knocked her out cold, she did it so easily.
"It's been a while since I fought with an Awakened, this is a nice stretch", Adhara mutters while cracking her body, it has been very long since she's in an actual fight.
Hearing this, Gistella nodded her head, "You're not rusty at all..."
But when Adhara was about to answer, Kyran jumps out of a shadow and saw Sabrina lying on the ground with her left arm severed unconscious, "Who is this?"
"Sabrina, the oldest daughter of the Rirgas Family", Adhara replied.
She then continues while looking at the unconscious Sabrina, "Gistella spotted her sneaking through the guards, and we decided to use her to get inside the mansion. How many guards are there?", Adhara looks back at Kyran.
Kyran nodded his head without a change in his expression, he then shakes his head.
"They're quite weak, there are twelve guards around the mansion with the strongest being a peak sixth rank while the others are early sixth rank and even some fifth rank. If we wanted to, we can barge into the mansion forcefully", Kyran explained nonchalantly.
But Adhara shakes her head as forcefully breaking in will just cause a commotion.
When she was about to say something, Kyran intervenes again, "I also find some Awakened hiding around the place, and I'm certain they're not from the Rirgas Family"
Hearing this, Adhara frowns before she understands the situation.
'It seems what Rex thought is true', she thought before she finally said, "Me and Gistella will get inside the mansion using Sabrina, you will take care of the hiding Awakened and meet me inside. Can you do that Kyran?"
Kyran nodded his head without a hint of hesitation, "Killing from the dark is my speciality"
"As long as they're not a seventh rank Awakened, I'll kill them with no problem. I'll meet you inside", Kyran added with a confident grin.
A moment later,
Boom!
Adhara landed right in front of the guards that are guarding the entrance of the mansion.
The guards' eyes started to bulge realizing that Adhara is dragging Sabrina's body by the neck, but what surprised them more is that Sabrina's left arm is completely severed.
Adhara looks at the guards with cold eyes before stepping forward.
When one of the guards wanted to leap in anger, another buddy of his stopped him.
"I-It's Adhara! That's Rex Silverstar's woman!", he said.
Hearing this, another guard looks back at Adhara with wide eyes, "Why is she holding miss Sabrina like that, does she have no fear? Even if she's Rex's woman, this is still our place"
With Adhara as a distraction,
The guards didn't even realize as a figure is sneaking from the side, and when they realized the figure they are way too late.
Slash!
Bam!
Gistella grabs two of the guards by the neck before crushing them with a twist of her hands.
After doing that, Adhara dropped Sabrina's body before she dashed forward and stabs the other two guards right below their chin simultaneously before she slit their throats making them fall to the ground while holding their bleeding necks silently.
Blood decorated her Duality Daggers but she didn't seem to be disturbed by this,
She remembers what Rex said earlier, and giving them a swift death will definitely lessen the carnage that will happen if she didn't handle the situation exactly like this.
Adhara stops in front of the tall fence before she touches it with her hand,
There is a glow that appears on her hand before the fence got marked with a rune, and after saying that she then looks at the mansion in front of her.
"Remember what Rex said, we have to leave a mark on the Rirgas Family..."
