The Invincible Full-Moon System

Chapter 782 Sub-Variant Werewolf

?

Rex has already determined that he would turn Giana and Prof. K at the moment he heard that the two are inside the Supernatural territory searching for him, he has his mind fixed on a plan that came to him from nowhere.

'I only wanted to turn Giana to make her understand, but she can't survive on her own'

As she was stripped away from her ninth-rank realm powers, degrading from the pillar of humanity with dual elements into nothing more than a measly superhuman, she has become incapable of surviving alone.

Going through the Humming Damned Forest is an impossibility for her now.

Not to mention, the Great Barricade is miles and miles away from the castle. If she can't reach the end of the Humming Damnef Forest, then reaching the Great Barricade is a complete pipe dream.

Thus, his decision to involve Prof. K is the best way to resolve those issues.

'Compared to the others, I don't really have any hate for Prof. K. So I need him, especially since he's the inventor of Intra Technology. I don't know how, but he surely can find a way to bypass his own invention and makes the untraceable as Supernaturals' Rex thought firmly.

Prof. K's lips quivered when he heard this, his face drain from all colors.

Even though he came here to make a difference, he doesn't want to do it at the cost of turning into a Supernatural. It would bring him myriads of headaches that he doesn't want. Due to that, he tries to flee the place.

Standing up quickly, he started to make a run toward the castle's entrance.

Flunra and the others were about to move to suppress him, but Rex simply raised his hand to stop them. Inside the castle's grounds, Rex is the absolute ruler, there's nothing he can't control.

Garnering every bit of energy, Prof. K tries to manifest his green smoke form to escape.

But he quickly learns that it was impossible for him to do that. 

Not that there was no crevice in the castle's entrance that he can use to leave the castle, but it was the fact that the air inside the castle was so dense and thick, making him exert a hundred or even a thousand times more energy just to transform.

It was so bad that Prof. K can only turn his right arm into green smoke for two seconds.

"Prof. K, there's nowhere to run" Rex said from behind.

Upon hearing this, Prof. K clenched his hands before he slowly turns around. At this moment, his mind is working at full capacity, searching for a way out, "R-Rex, I don't understand why you also need to turn me. I've never done you any wrong"

"I'm not naive enough to believe you're innocent from all of this" Rex replied with a clear voice.

Although it's somewhat true that he has never been harmed by Prof. K or even the SCO in particular, he still finds it odd that King John and the other messengers accepted him being a Werewolf very quickly, too quickly in fact.

Clearly, the SCO might already know what he was from the start.

Like a specter that is capable of moving through the shadows summoned by the light of dawn seeping into the castle, Rex's body blurred before he reappears a couple of steps away from Prof. K with the same intention in his eyes.

Prof. K took a step back in response, he was still afraid of being turned.

"Some way or another, I need to make you directly involved in this, Prof. K. If I didn't, then you wouldn't help Giana to get what I want like your life depends on it" Rex answered the question, he simply has to do this.

If somehow Giana is capable of doing this alone, then he wouldn't turn Prof. K.

Despite the fact that Prof. K is definitely a gifted person that would make a strong Werewolf, he still has countless options, and turning Prof. K into a Werewolf forcefully is not within his taste.

Rex peers into Prof. K's green eyes before he said, "I was meaning to ask, are you sick?"

"I can smell sickness from you the moment you don't have the crow mask. Even your blood and the rhythm of your heart are odd, you must be suffering from some kind of sickness. Maybe because of your powers?" he inquired, leading the conversation somewhere.

Upon hearing this, Prof. K frowns, "And what if I am?"

"My eyes can see through everything, and I'm quite confident that you'll die in a month or so," Rex said, but then he paused before a smile appeared on his face. "Is that why you're dedicating your whole life to researching?"

Connecting the dots, Rex finds that this is a strong guess.

Prof. K is still young from the looks of it, but he always had this lazy personality which is probably inherent in his sickness. Alongside his strong sense of patriotism to humanity, this is enough reason for him to live the rest of his life researching and contributing as much as he can.

???d?---n??a| ?om Moreover, King John doesn't seem to know this, judging from how he acts.

At the sound of the words that came out of Rex's mouth, Prof. K's pupils slightly dilated and his body tensed a little. Surely, he was caught off guard by the news, and he has no reason to not believe what Rex is saying is not true.

With countless unimaginable feats under his belt, predicting his death is not that jarring.

Looking at the reaction Prof. K is wearing, the corner of Rex's mouth quirks up a little, "If you really want to help humanity, then keep on living. Become a Werewolf and get rid of that sickness. Pay the price so that others will survive, your expertise is quite crucial for them"

It was right then, a definite pause happened as the two were silent.

"A-Are you going to force me to kill humans if I decided to let you turn me into a Werewolf?" Prof. K eventually asked reluctantly, he knows that there was no way out for him and the best thing he could do is negotiate.

One way or another, he will be turned into a Werewolf by Rex.

Upon hearing this, Rex grinned inwardly as he seems to be able to convince Prof. K to resign to his fate. "No, I only intend to protect my people. As you can see outside, I am beyond humans and Supernaturals"

Despite the reluctance, Prof. K finds that what Rex is saying is somewhat logical.

Putting away the fact that he was biased and doesn't want to turn into any Supernatural creatures, the fact that he was dying is irrefutable. If he wanted to keep on helping humanity, he needs to make some sacrifices.

But he only fears one thing, 'If I turned into a Werewolf, will I be the same person...?'

"So, what is it going to be, Prof. K? Are you still going to resist, or will you accept this? I don't mind doing either way if I have to" Rex asked again, demanding an answer as Giana is already slowly recovering.

Although he's still unsure, eventually Prof. K answered, "Fine, do what you have to do"

A moment later.

Rex is not sitting back on his throne with a stoic expression, his eyes are gazing at Giana that has already recovered and is in a state of surreal as to what had just happened to her. "Now, with this, you'll eventually experience the unjust I suffered. Make sure to complete your tasks, Giana... time is not on your side"

Upon hearing this, Giana slowly looks up, her eyes were blank.

"Flunra, take the two of them away. I don't want to see their faces anymore" Rex instructed.

Without any hesitation, Flunra bowed slightly before he guides the two out of the throne room. Both have received what they need and what Rex wanted them to know, now it's time for them to act in order to win his help.

As the two have fully transformed, there's no reason for them to be here anymore.

Just a couple of minutes ago, he turned Prof. K into a Werewolf. Unlike Giana, the blood limit that he possesses was way higher due to having a gifted body and also being in the eighth-rank realm himself.

It was evident that his stats has experienced quite a boost.

But unlike Giana who he fixed to turn into a regular Werewolf, Prof. K didn't turn into a normal one. Similar to the time when Rex turned Gistella, Prof. K turned into a sub-variant called Noxious Emerald Werewolf.

From the system's description, the sickness inside of him caused this change.

Noxious Emerald Werewolf, like its name, is a Werewolf with a dark greenish hue to its furs and has powers revolving around virulent toxin that can quickly render its enemy's condition into a sickly one, impairing them from their powers.

Rex didn't expect that such a Werewolf existed and was quite surprised by this.

Due to that, Prof. K experienced an evident boost in his stats. Compared to the others, Prof. K might just be nearing Flunra's strength, not taking into account the runic power that Flunra has.

Aside from the surprising sub-variant, Rex branded the two of them with different runes.

Giana is branded with Conscious of the Lost rune that amplifies her guilt to an insurmountable degree while Prof. K was branded with Mind of Perfect Predator Rune which increases his mental stat greatly.

Rex has a couple of reasons for giving the two those runes.

For one, he wanted Giana to suffer despite being given a chance. In addition, Rex also demotes Giana into an Omega, pushing all of her stats to endurance stat while also deliberately putting the Silverstar Mark below her right eye for the fun of it.

She would definitely be on edge all the time, fearing others might realize she's not a human.

As for Prof. K, he wanted him to be able to sustain the coming Storm Moon.

It's true that he wanted Giana to suffer for her past actions, but he still needs the list of things that he wants her to do to be complete. Each of them is crucial to fight against the Executor and advancement of Dargena City.

While he was watching Flunra taking the two away, Rex seems to have something in mind.

Adhara and Evelyn wanted an explanation on why Rex would give Giana a chance despite what she has done, they need to know the reason or they would be uneasy all the time for letting Giana go.

But looking at Rex seems to be thinking, they decided to postpone asking that question.

Looking at him frowning on his throne, the two didn't find it hard to guess what Rex was thinking right now as Giana earlier told him that the Executor was found wounded, and there was a lingering cursed energy inside his wound.

Upon hearing this, Rex was skeptical, but Adhara told him that she was telling the truth.

It's been said that Brigitta saw it with her own two eyes, the Executor is definitely injured. If not then she wouldn't be able to tell the story, the Executor would probably kill her for seeing him injured.

Although that is the case, Rex is still undecided, 'I know that Giana is telling the truth'

'Yet I don't know whether Brigitta is telling the truth, she's a snake and I don't trust her if she didn't say it herself in front of Adhara. But this is in line with the explosive energy from earlier, the Executor must've fought against the Witch' he thought.

Rex then shakes his head, in any way, he needs to learn about curses just in case.

But this can wait as he has an important thing to do, he opens his inventory tab and fixed his eyes on the two-spirit cores that luckily match his focused elements. Lightning and Water elements, both he was going to use to complement each other.

A grin appeared on his face as he looks at his inventory.

'With this, I can possibly propel myself to the ninth-rank realm. Slowly but surely, I'm catching up to the Executor. After I train the Brutal Impulse Moon Ability and curses more, we can start thinking of being on the offensive...'
