The Invincible Full-Moon System

Chapter 153 Devo The Gatekeeper

Mrs. Greene comes walking towards Edward and hugs him.

They both met on the day they are given the medals by the UWO for their bravery, Edward becomes familiar with Mrs. Greene.

Especially when he remembered that Rex sacrificed himself for him.

"How are you dear? It's been months since I last saw you", Mrs. Greene said with a smile.

She's delighted to see Edward in her place,

Edward smiles gently, "I'm great Mrs. Greene, I'm sorry I haven't visited you for a while"

Hearing this, Mrs. Greene chuckles lightly.

"Why are you saying sorry, I understand that you're busy", she replied while signaling to Robert to take her shopping bags.

Looking at his friend's mom this well, Edward can't help but be happy too.

He remembered the last time when they met, Mrs. Greene is devastated and sad so looking at her now brings joy to Edward also.

Mrs. Grenee brought Edward to the sofa,

They both sit down on the sofa before she said, "You should've told me you're coming, I would've cooked for you"

"It's okay Mrs. Grenee", Edward said politely.

Hearing this, Mrs. Greene then shoot down Edward's polite manner and said, "What are you talking about, I can cook for you right now!"

Mrs. Greene stands up from the sofa but got held by Edward.

She looks at Edward with a confused look before Edward said, "Actually, I'm here to invite you guys to go somewhere for a while"

Robert came back from putting down the shopping bags and heard their conversation.

"A trip? Sorry Edward, but I'm afraid I can't join", Robert said dejectedly, he then explains that he got work to do.

Mrs. Greene added, "I can come so don't worry, where are we going?"

"No, you both must come. In fact, Rex is the one who planned this so he'll be sad if you didn't come", Edward said to Robert.

Robert was surprised, he didn't expect Rex the one to plan this.

"You met with Rex? That's great news!", Mrs. Greene said.

She then told Robert to take a day off from work which he agreed to, "If you met Rex, why didn't you come here with Rex?"

"Emm, he got something to do in the university so he can't come here", Edward said.

Robert and Mrs. Greene nodded their heads before they started to pack, Edward said that they will depart as soon as possible.

'Thankfully they believe it, I'll just let Rex explain the situation to them', Edward thought.

Somewhere in Ratmawati City,

A family is having breakfast inside a big mansion.

The mansion is really big and dominated with the colors white and green, there are guards located in every corner of the mansion inside or outside, and many luxury cars park on the front.

p Inside the dining room, a family of five is eating gracefully.

The smell of food filled the room, and there are maids on a standout for any of their needs.

All of the family members have green hair except for a middle-aged woman that has brown hair, and the atmosphere in the dining room is chokingly silent.

The head of the family is eating leisurely as his fierce eyes gaze onto his daughter.

If Rex is here, he will recognize the daughter to be Jane he met last night in Amethyst Hotel.

Jane puts her head down feeling pressured by his father's gaze, it makes her hand tremble as she started to fidget under the table.

"You're saying that this kid called Rex has all three spellbooks?", her father repeats Jane's words.

Jane bit her lips remembering the day when she met Rex, "Yes father, he has proof of possessing all three spellbooks and he doesn't fear our family"

Her words make the dining room atmosphere becomes even more suffocating.

Knowing that there's a nobody that does not fear and even threatened their families makes the father's face becomes grim, even the sons become scared because of it.

The father's chewing stop, "And What did he say to you?"

"He said that he wanted his terms to be heard, he wanted to talk to you. He wanted to talk to Wesley Atkins", Jane said with a trembling voice.

Hearing this, Wesley takes a deep breath to calm himself down.

"I told you to steal the spellbooks, they didn't know we know of their spellbooks so you will only fight the Platchi. And you said that you got beat to it by Rex?", Wesley said as his voice becomes deeper and deeper.

Fearing that her father will become even angrier, "No father, Rex said that he didn't intend to steal the spellbooks. His men got the wrong box, it seems he's an enemy with the Platchi"

PRANG!

Wesley's aura exploded sending the food and plates flying away.

"That doesn't justify anything!", Wesley shouted.

He then continues, "You are a rank six! but you got beaten by a student that barely reaches rank four?"

Wesley then stands up and approaches Jane,

He stopped right before Jane towering beside her, "I told you the importance of the Spellbooks if they get it, our family will be scorn from the top ten"

Just as he said this, one of the guards approaches Wesley.

The guards then lean closer to Wesley's ears whispering something.

Hearing the information from the guard, Wesley widened his eyes before his face becomes brutal, "I'll go meet this bastard, and in the meantime, you try and settle the score for me"

After saying that to Jane, Wesley then left the room.

The next day,

Rex is in his house eating with both Ryze and Kyran.

Rex saw Kyran has panda eyes because he can't sleep, he fears that when he falls asleep their enemies will come and attack him.

"Let me help, I want to help", Kyran said determinedly.

Rex glance at Kyran before he sighs, "You're in a difficult position, if you want to help me then think through your actions that lead to this and don't do it again"

Hearing this, Kyran shuts his mouth unwillingly.

Rex is currently in a bad mood,

From his vision before, he gets that the Yule Moon can't make him stronger.

With so much going on around him, Rex really hopeful for the next full moon where he can get stronger so much faster because he's a Werewolf.

But now, he knows that the next full moon will not help him.

Rex decided to open the system's shop and search if there're spirits sold there, it will be his next target after finishing his rune.

He opened the shop and filter it to Spirit,

After filtering the shop, he's greeted by many spirits with different elements and effects that are sold in the system's shop.

At this point, he's not surprised anymore.

While scrolling the system's shop, he found that all of the good spirits can only be purchased for at least 20,000 gold which he didn't have right now.

His eyes fall onto a spirit on the shop that he likes,

<Devo the Gatekeeper>

A spirit that replaced the previous Gatekeeper of the Clouds eleven thousand years ago, Devo is a powerful spirit with lightning-based abilities making Lightning Elementalist that bound with him to be tripled in power.

Effect Gained: Enhanced Lightning Based Abilities, Expanded Mana Absorption Radius, and Weather Control

Rex likes this spirit because it is a lightning-based spirit making it compatible with him but what he aims for is the Expanded Mana Absorption Radius.

This will make his powering up to be easier,

If ranking up to 6 will takes Rex 4 months of meditating, then with the expanded radius he may be able to rank up to 6 with half or even lower time than normal.

Even imagining it makes Rex's body trembles, all of his problems will be solved if he's strong.

But when he saw the price of Devo the Gatekeeper, he immediately sighs as it is so expensive that it may take him quite a while to gather it.

It costs 100,000 gold to buy Devo the Gatekeeper because it belongs to the high spirit.

'Well, I need to reach rank five first before buying this', Rex thought.

While he's thinking, he unconsciously moves to another room and thinks there for a while leaving Ryze and Kyran in the kitchen.

After a couple of hours, Rex then went out after figuring out something.

He already got a plan in mind that will make him stronger if successful, it may even put him into new heights.

Rex went to the FAA office before again,

He wanted to stalk the detective before to gain more information, until now he still doesn't know who the spellbooks are for.

But when he left his house, he saw that there're many FAA members on the street.

They're all scattered on the street and even many of them are inside Ochyra University, 'They definitely searching for the spellbooks', Rex thought.

Rex then decided to buy a hat from a stall before he went inside Ochyra University.

He's trying to find the detective before, and he can smell his scent inside Ochyra University so that's why he went inside.

All of Rex's senses are enhanced, and even his smelling is extraordinary.

Just from smelling the detective once from afar, he can already remember his smell and track him down easily.

Rex went to a corner and found the detective there talking to the FAA members.

While he's stalking the detective, his phone rang as Edward's name pops on his phone screen.

"How was it?", Rex asks.

"I'm on my way, you should go there soon and explain the situation to them", Edward replied, he sounds like he's inside a car.

Hearing this, Rex told Edward he'll be there before he hung up.

The detective is talking to the FAA members about the radius they're searching, there is no useful information Rex got from their conversation.

Just when Rex was about to leave, he saw something.

The detective suddenly separated from the FAA members, he walks alongside the people leisurely while looking left and right.

Rex decided to follow him for a little bit more.

The detective walks out of the university before he arrives in front of a small house.

He then looks at his surroundings making Rex hides behind a big pot.

After confirming that nobody is following him, the detective enters the house after knocking in a code that Rex caught with his eyes.

Rex went to the door side after the detective went in,

He then leans on the wall trying to get closer to the door without being suspicious, he can somewhat hear what they're saying.

"Our men sense that the spellbooks are brought by a thief around here", a woman voice crept on Rex's ears.

"We're trying hard to find it, ma'am", the detective answered.

Rex can hear two people talking, the detective and a woman.

"It's probably the Atkins who stole it, they're making a move recently", The woman said.

The detective then said with a hesitant voice, "Should I try and find a way to search their property?"

"No, the spellbooks are hot. We can't make it public that we're searching for it", the woman said.

The woman then continues, "If you manage to find the spellbooks and deliver it to us, the Reed Family will be indebted to you and you will be handsomely rewarded"

Hearing this, Rex widened his eyes as he heard their conversation.

After getting the information, he wanted to leave the place when suddenly, a hand gripped his mouth before black energy envelops them.

Rex struggles to break free to no avail.

He watches as his body got engulfed by the black energy before he got teleported.

After getting teleported, Rex got pushed in front as he falls to the ground.

Thud!

Rex gritted his teeth before he looks back and saw the person that teleported him, he widened his eyes in shock, "Principal?"
