Chapter 554 A Kiss And A Promise
Chapter 554 A Kiss And A Promise
For the last couple of days Rex has been dwelling inside the throne room without ever going outside, he spent his time thinking of possibilities and also training his Lunar Light element vigorously.
Even though he has already reached the ninth rank with his King Mark, it's not going to end there.

After finishing the Sudden Quest to destroy the Supernatural stronghold, Rex got a hefty amount of exp which amounts to 100 billion that managed to increase his level to level 53 alongside other items from it.
But aside from that, he also noticed that he got way weaker compared to before.
Since he's not in his Werewolf Form alongside his King Mark, Rex's base stats are nothing like they used to. At the very least he's comparable to the peak eighth rank realm which is a realm below his Werewolf form.
It was not a problem way back when he was in lower realms, but now the difference is too much.
The ninth rank realm and eighth rank realm are the two highest realms achieved during this time, and it's a huge leap of stats from the eighth to the ninth rank realms. Of course, he can just turn into his Werewolf form.
But what if his opponents are Awakened? He won't be able to turn into a Werewolf then.
With the uncertainty of Sebrof and Lady Giana, there's no saying that he doesn't need to defend himself against Awakened in the future. Because of that, he has been giving more effort to make himself stronger in terms of his Awakened power.
After finishing the Sudden Quest from before, he got the Enhanced Spirit Core Reforming item.
Despite not bringing too much increase in his intelligence stats, the Enhanced Spirit Core Reforming item helps him in creating his second Spirit Core on top of the one he made with Devo. In just a few days, he already make a sphere of light filled with Lunar Light mana.
Once again the system has proven to be a huge help in increasing his power.
Even without any enhancements, Rex will definitely reach the seventh rank realm in his Lunar Light in a couple more days. Then he can start making his way through the eighth rank realm, it's ambitious but will definitely pay off.
If Rex managed to also reach the ninth rank realm in one of his elements, then he's unstoppable.
With his King Mark alone he has already reached a terrifying height of power, and Rex can't even begin to imagine if he becomes a ninth-rank Awakened too. By then he will dominate the entire Supernatural to the ground.
Because of that, the days passed like an obscure hysteria.
Adhara and the others are also told about the possibility of Sebrof knowing them as Werewolves, they are not that much different than Rex's reaction as it's a very big deal for them. So far none of them reaches this point yet.
Only Wesley has suspected them of being Supernaturals, but he was fooled to think they're not.
Now not only Lady Giana knew exactly that they're Werewolves, but Sebrof also knows of this which makes them keep on biting their fingernails these last couple of days fearing that they might be attacked.
Edward calmed them down but he can only reassure them to an extent, while Rex kept silent.
In response to this, the others brought their close ones here.
Zelene, Edward's uncle, and Russ just arrived at the Silverstar Family's mansion in response to the news, they are not going to be safe so Rex allowed them to remain in the mansion until the matter has cooled down.
Even Evelyn told her family to be careful, they might be targeted too.
Although her parents are asking what she meant by that, they're one of the 25 Golden Crest Families so dealing with situations like this is their forte. Without a doubt, they can protect themselves.
Since it was not their first time experiencing this, the three of them didn't question much.
Especially Russ that already knows that Rex is a magnet of trouble which leads to his success and although he's worried Rex has proven multiple times that he's a tough guy to take down. Giving Rex the benefit of the doubt is the best he could do.
Back to the present, Rex has just received the news from Prof. K.
The Green Team with him being the Green Messenger is deployed in order to collect a high-ranking Supernatural corpse, they are supposed to go to the Supernatural territory and head to the Shapeshifter territory for it.
But there's a change of plan that doesn't require them to go to the Shapeshifter territory.
'An eighth-rank Shapeshifter managed to escape after being heavily injured by a woman called Rowenna Silva, so they're asking me and the green team to search for it near Guvale City', Rex thought with a frown.
Looking down to the ground, Rex watches as the grass beneath his feet dances by the wind.
Rearranging his thoughts of priorities, Rex lifted his head before he head back inside the mansion in search of Evelyn that should be in her room. Upon arriving in front of her room, Rex opens the door without knocking.
With that, he stepped inside before he frowns seeing Evelyn panic for a second.
"Don't you know how to knock? Why don't you sleep in this room with me at this rate if you like to just barge in without knocking", Evelyn complained with a pouting expression, she was surprised by Rex's sudden entrance.
But this makes Rex frown, "What are you thinking? I find it hard to believe you didn't sense me"
Since Evelyn just like the others are also a Werewolf, she should've sensed anyone way before that person even reaches the front of her room. There's only one thing that can make a Werewolf caught off guard like that.
Distraction, a heavy distraction that numbs the senses for a brief period.
Rex walks inside the room before sitting by the edge of the bed just beside Evelyn, "No, I'm not thinking of anything. Where's Adhara by the way? Did the Vampire say anything yet?", she asked clearly trying to change the topic.
"Adhara is still watching the Vampire in case he started to talk. Don't change the subject"
Knowing that she was caught avoiding the conversation, Evelyn can only smile wryly before Rex'seyes caught her hiding her right hand on the back, "I need you to be sharp, if you have anything in your mind just say it to me"
"But you look like you're having a lot in your mind right now, so I don't want to bother you"
"Leave the worrying job to me, just tell me what's on your mind"
Biting her lower lip feeling reluctant to add another thought into Rex's chaotic mind with the things that are happening, Evelyn sighs before she takes out her right hand exposing a photo of her family.
Upon seeing this, Rex shifted his gaze back at Evelyn's eyes questioningly.
"I just thought of my family and how I fear that I can't meet them again, you know... with Sebrof and Lady Giana knowing our secret, there possibility of us running away to the Supernatural territory is very high"
Just as she said that she can't help but get teary as she remembered her family.
Although she has been busy way before even meeting with Rex and has little time for her mother and Kevin, she at least still maintains communication with them but now there's a high possibility that she won't be able to anymore.
It has clouded her mind ever since she knew the fact that Sebrof knew of them being Werewolves.
Not only Rex suffered from the anxiety from the uncertainty brought by Lady Giana and Sebrof, the others are clearly affected by it just the same. Evelyn has shown that clearly as she shed a tear but quickly wiped it away, she hung her head low because of it.
Rex looks at her with a troubled expression, it pained him a little seeing Evelyn crying like this.
But realizing that she was letting her emotion out of control from the fact of saying her concerns to Rex, Evelyn wiped her tears before lifting her head up, "I'm sorry, I'm just overreacting. You definitely have a lot in yo-"
It was sudden, but Evelyn's body suddenly freeze as her eyes widened.
Without even saying anything at all, Rex suddenly gave a kiss on Evelyn's forehead.
Despite her entire worry about not being able to see her parents, especially Kevin that is the future of the Luc Family. Everything suddenly got washed away alongside her eyes widening by the second.
Just with that kiss, Rex swept her worries away giving her great comfort.
Warm energy started to burn the part of her forehead that is being kissed by Rex before that warm energy traveled throughout her body, Evelyn instantly feels assured as if she got mind controlled to believe in the person in front of her.
After giving her a kiss on the forehead, Rex pulls back before he rubs her head gently.
"No matter what happens in the future, I promise that you're going to keep being able to talk with your parents. I will make sure of that, even if we're going to be exposed and kicked out", Rex said softly which turns into a soft pleasant rhythm in Evelyn's ears.
It made a smile bloom on her face hearing Rex's promise.
Rex has always been a man of his word, she becomes completely assured of getting his promise.
But as Evelyn nodded her head gently while feeling Rex's hand rubbing her head, a couple of notifications from the system appeared which caught Rex by surprise. Something that he forgot momentarily but now he remembered.
<Luna's Intimacy has been increased to level 2!>
<Luna's Grace Effect has become stronger!>
Alpha : +1,000 > 2,000 Physical Stat Points
Pack Members: +200 > 500 Physical Stat Points
Upon seeing this, Rex can't help but find this very interesting.
'System, do I need to make Evelyn happy to increase the level of Luna Intimacy?'
<Yes, doing a great gesture for the Luna will increase the level of Luna's Intimacy. Mating with the Luna is also an easy method to increase the level of Luna's Intimacy>
Although Rex did that because of the mood of the room, he didn't expect to get this.
Since he has already reached a very high realm, the stats brought by the Luna's Intimacy Effect is not as impactful. But now that he can actually increase the level of the Luna's Intimacy then the increase will become impactful in the future.
Nodding to himself, Rex then went back to the reason why he came here.
"Evelyn, can you find out and make an appointment in the near days with an Awakened called Rowenna Silva? I need her to help me with something", Rex asks as he needs to find the injured Shapeshifter.
It's the last piece of the Supernatural Radar, a very important Supernatural.
Hearing this Evelyn gazes at Rex questioningly, "Does this have anything to do with the Supernatural Radar? I've heard that the SCO is finalizing the Supernatural Radar but missing one final piece"
"Yes, I need to find it before they do..."
"Hmm?", Evelyn stopped for a second to process what she just heard.
But before she can even say anything, Rex already intervenes while standing up, "Just help me meet with this Rowenna, if you find anything or made an appointment tell me as soon as possible. The faster the better"
After saying that, Rex left the room leaving the puzzled Evelyn alone inside her room.
Looking back at the door where Rex has just left, Evelyn frowned finding what Rex said very concerning, "Why does he need to find the Shapeshifter first...? What is he planning to do?"

Meanwhile, Supernatural Territory.
Just like inside the Human territory, the news about the destruction of the Vampire Stronghold and the tremendous loss from the Demon Stronghold spreads like wildfire throughout the Supernatural territory.
It's the first major loss they've had in years which is very concerning for them.
Having such a long experience made them feel fearful of the progressing humanity, but the higher-ups didn't sit idle and calmed their people down with the promise of avenging the loss they suffered today.
Although it's assuring, some are still feeling restless because of the loss.
In front of the Demon King's castle, a horde of flying creatures that have features similar to a mix of Vampires and Demons descend from the sky before landing right in front of the Demon Kingdom's entrance known as the Mouth to Hell.
Landing on the barren land, the leader of the horde of flying creatures is devilishly beautiful.
With nothing but a glance of her can even melt the heart of men and even makes kingdoms fight an endless war for the glimpse of hope of possessing her, she's the true embodiment of the word Enchanting.
Upon seeing the leader, the Demon Guards instantly recognize her.
Queen of the Succubus, Queen Catsha.
"Although it's been more than a dozen years since we've left this place, it still feels like yesterday. I don't like it, do we really have to be here?", another succubus that emits sharp pink energy said from the side.
Hearing this, Queen Catsha scoffed, "We will not be here for long, Qinvia. I have some matters here"
After saying that Queen Catsha followed by Qinvia went inside the Demon Kingdom leaving the horde of Succubus and Incubus behind, both of them were let straight to the deepest part of the Demon Kingdom.
Many of the Demons roared upon seeing Queen Catsha and Qinvia's arrival.
Despite them doesn't give any reaction whatsoever, the Demons inside of the Demon Kingdom are giving deadly glares at both of them as if they bore an intense blood feud. It kept going until they reaches the lowest floor.
Upon arriving at the deepest part of the Demon Kingdom, both of them enter the red portal.
Just as the both of them get teleported to the last floor of the Demon Kingdom, they find themselves on a vast throne with thick Demonic Energy filling the entire place like overflowing water.
But instead of being troubled by this, Queen Catsha and Qinvia resonate with the Demonic Energy.
"How lucky am I to be visited by the most enchanting Succubus alive, it's been a long time since we met my lovely Catsha", an endearing voice penetrates both of their ears which turns their expressions darker than before.
King Saruth who is sitting on the throne supports his chin with his fist while looking at the two.
Seeing the dark expression they are wearing, he immediately apologized with a smile of mockery, "My apologies, you're a Queen now. I still don't get used to calling you Queen, I'm truly sorry for that..."
Gritting her teeth tightly, Queen Catsha raises her gaze to the throne before she widened her eyes.
Even Qinvia also widens her eyes seeing that King Saruth doesn't look the same as they last saw him, and on top of that his form surprised them to their cores. It sparks a grin from King Saruth seeing both of their surprised expressions.
"Oh, do I look that different? Forgive me, but I find it very itchy to not use this form in front of you"
