The Invincible Full-Moon System

Chapter 892 Aim Of The Blood Silhouette

?

In the extreme heat of the moment, Rex's eyes were fixed on this haunting entity.

Her curvy body, a silhouette of blood stands on the spot yet exudes an alluring presence. A sinister figure that made the entire situation feel like a dream. She stretches her slender hand forward as a thin flow of blood drips down to the ground from her fingertips.

A promise of salvation, an offering to help him wake up from this dream.

Who is she...?

Rex feels like this entity is familiar, and he could also feel something inside of him awakening.

It feels like a gradually increasing burn in his heart.

Focusing intently on this silhouette of blood, he discerned a sinister smile gracing the entity's face, her hand still outstretched. In that very instant, his eyes widened with a revelation, as the scene unfolding before him triggered a memory.

A haunting resemblance to a distant memory from this past.

An incident in the bathroom, the start of a curse that bound him, the bloodied mirror.

Is it really her?

"C- Calidora..." A light mumble escapes his mouth.

Despite her eyes remaining halfway opened, her exhaustion pushing her to the brink of unconsciousness, Evelyn caught faint murmurs from her front. Her eyelids reluctantly fluttered, and her eyes showed signs of light again.

Evelyn was compelled to gaze upward toward Rex, who was casting his eyes on her behind.

Instinctively, she looked over her shoulder but found nothing.

But she couldn't disregard what he said, she knew what she heard. A name that wasn't supposed to come out in this kind of situation. However, this made Evelyn's mind flicker in shock as she came to a realization.

'So that's it, so that's why my Luna energy is weakened...'

Upon coming to a revelation, she then looked at the palm of her hand and smiled acutely.

The last time that Rex went berserk during the incident when he learned of Rosie's death, she remembered that a white-wolf head with a purple dot on the forehead appeared on her palm making her and also her Luna energy stronger.

Despite being stuck in a similar situation, there was no white-wolf head on her palm.

It was clear that it was due to her weakening.

'I still retained 70% of my Luna energy after that incident earlier, thus I still have most of the power. If that's what you're trying to get, Calidora, then bring it on' Evelyn pondered, adrenaline rushing inside of her. 'Even if Rex hasn't realized it yet, don't think I won't'

Meanwhile, the situation remained dire.

Rex still has his eyes on the silhouette of blood that he suspects to be Calidora. Her appearance here didn't cause him to be alert, but glad instead. If she's here, then she might be able to somehow help him right now.

She probably knew through the Eternal Curse between us, good...

Despite her sudden appearance, in a form such as this, it doesn't surprise Rex too much.

Calidora was linked to him through the Eternal Curse.

It was unclear how she could harness the Eternal Curse more to the point of being able to contend with the Witch of Chaos' pets, however, this must be the cause of her being able to sense his state of berserk.

Knowing that curses could work in mysterious ways, this is highly possible.

Feeling the yearning for help that Rex's eyes were depicting, the blood figure strides closer.

Reaching out her slender hand to hold his chin, the silhouette of blood then lifts his chin up, forcing him to look at her directly. Her smile stretched even wider, seeing that Rex battling against that urge inside of him.

"Can you see it now...?" A haunting yet dulcet sound creeps out of her bloody mouth.

Moving elegantly, the entity points to the surroundings.

Upon hearing her words, Rex's eyes flared open, his gaze fixating on the devastation and suffering he had wrought upon the surroundings. However, out of all of them, the pain he inflicted on Evelyn weighed heaviest on his conscience.

It made him understand even more that he was extremely dangerous.

A peculiar look appears on the entity's face when she finds the expression Rex is wearing.

Like a gentle breeze of wind, she delicately traced her fingers across his face, caressing him with radiating care and affection. But his expression didn't seem enough, and she wanted to push him deeper into the pit of guilty conscience she fabricated.

"One bad day, they could all slip through your grasp like sand"

"Adhara, Evelyn, and Gistella... It only takes one bad day for their love to shift to fear"

Rex looks down with his eyes opened widely, he is swayed by the delicate words that are aimed directly at his weakness. If an incident like this could happen despite his meticulous nature, then it would be bound to happen again in the future.

He gets lucky this time, but that doesn't mean he will be in the next one.

I've never managed to figure her out. Whenever I thought I knew what she wanted and would do, she'd invariably veer in the opposite direction. Even now, her mind remains complex to me.

I know that she's saying this for her motives, but I can't deny her words to be true.

...

Oblivious to what was transpiring between Rex and the silhouette of blood, the others were still desperately trying to hold him back, their bodies were started to be run down with extreme exhaustion.

In a battle of endurance, only Flunra could prevail the longest.

While she knelt weakly before Rex, Evelyn could feel a cold sensation behind her. However, there was nobody behind her. It felt like there was the presence of an invisible figure looming in the shadows right behind her.

Following that, she felt her Luna energy was acting up again.

Like earlier, some of her Luna energy shoots to the sky and disappears into the horizon.

'I couldn't sense it, but she's definitely doing something right now!'

Evelyn gritted her teeth realizing that despite not knowing what, Calidora is definitely doing something that causes this. Due to that, she ignored the pain that her body was experiencing, shrugging the urge to pass out before her eyes gleamed with a determined look.

A peculiar purple light appeared as she gave everything to snap Rex out of his condition.

Her Luna energy, what's left of it surged and coalesced into a spectral shape of a wolf's head behind her. It forms a testament to her unyielding determination. Her concentrated efforts in summoning this manifestation took a toll, eroding the inside of her body.

But it was the only thing she could do to stop Calidora.

...

Finding that Evelyn was working even harder than before, infusing as much Luna energy without regard for her own self, the silhouette of blood smirked. She found it adorable for her to try and resist her impervious temptation.

Her eyes then shifted back to Rex who was still gazing downward.

Leaning forward slightly, the silhouette of blood puts her lips right beside Rex's ears.

She then spoke softly, her words aimed at alleviating the anguish that Rex was currently enduring. "If it were me... If you invested yourself in me more, then you wouldn't need to worry about anything like this. Nothing you do would be able to kill me..."

Upon hearing her words, Rex's body tensed up in response.

Observing the subtle change, the silhouette of blood's smile widened with anticipation.

Realizing that she had masterfully orchestrated the perfect stage, creating a prime opportunity for herself that made her charm irresistible, her body surged with impulsive excitement. 'He won't easily forget me now. Ah~ I look forward to the moment when he's entirely mine...'

With a tender touch, she gently lifted Rex's chin once more, then leaned in closer.

Tcup!

During the moment when his mind was in a jumbled mess, he was surprised when he felt something soft and plump pressed against his lips. It was then he realized that the silhouette of blood kissed him.

A move that completely catches him off guard.

But the weird part is that he doesn't seem to fight back against it, his body was hypnotized.

It doesn't taste like blood, it's sweet. Has kissing been thistasteful?

Locking his lips against the silhouette of blood he suspected to be Calidora, he was enthralled by the moment. His head and tongue moved as if guided by an irresistible, captivating charm that had enveloped him.

Due to the shock of this gesture, his mind was completely blank for a second.

However, he soon snapped out of his daze.

Rex's hazy red eyes that were influenced by the devilish charm caught sight of a familiar purplish hue coming out of the silhouette of blood's body, he wanted to decipher what it was but the kiss became even more aggressive.

It was hard for him to reconnect the strand inside his mind.

Since it's a stark contrast to the all-crimson color, he noticed this purplish hue instantly.

Oblivious to him, the silhouette of blood started melting once again.

Like a powerful clearance, the kiss made the surroundings start to regain their original vibrant color, and the bloodlust inside of him started to fade away. It took a moment before he snapped out of his berserk state.

Upon regaining back his control, he instantly deactivated his powers.

"Harggh...!"

Extreme exhaustion instantly enveloped his entire body as he fell to Evelyn's shoulder, he was panting heavily as his body slowly transformed back into his human form, bringing relief to the others who also fell to the ground.

Not one of them managed to keep standing, all of them gasped for breaths tiredly.

It was a stressful incident for them that exhausted their body and mind.

For a solid minute, Rex endeavored to steady his breath, but then, a gentle hand began to affectionately stroke his head. It was in that tender moment that he abruptly pulled back to reality, recalling that Evelyn was injured.

Observing her body, he found that she also already reverted back to her original form.

In a hurry, Rex bought an elixir from the shop and gave it to her.

"Evelyn! Are you okay?! Here... drink this first"

"I- I'm fine, really..."

A moment later, the others had already gone away to handle the worried citizens who definitely sensed the fight happening. It would be best to attend to them until Rex could come and give them a legitimate answer.

Meanwhile, Rex is standing with his arm crossed while looking forward.

He was looking at the destruction he caused.

Despite some of the buildings being thrashed because of the incident earlier, Dargena City's power started to shine as this is when its power became handy. Harnessing the moonlight energy, the damaged buildings started to be repaired on their own.

While this was transpiring, Evelyn fixed her gaze on Rex who was facing away.

Observing closely, she finds him clutching onto his own arms tightly, troubled with the sight.

'I don't think she could control his emotions directly. If I had to assume, she must've sensed Rex going berserk and viewed it as an opportunity' Evelyn thought with a frown, she could see a change in the way Rex looked at her earlier. It was clear that his mind was injected with an idea that she was not aware of.

Scanning the place, Evelyn ponders about that idea.

But it was then her eyes flared open in revelation, 'Wait... Calidora was ridiculing me and Adhara for not realizing that Rex was afraid of losing those close to him. Now that this incident happened, then she must be...'

'Damn you, Calidora' Evelyn cursed inside her head. 'So you're going for that...'

Rex who was oblivious to the revelation that Evelyn had regarding Calidora's strategy frowned, desperately trying to not show the anger he had at himself. It troubles him to know that he could hurt the others badly earlier.

A burden that weighed him down heavily as he promised a safe utopia.

I think she's right, maybe when I'm in a lot of trouble like right now, being with her is better.

No matter how stressed I become and go berserk, she can handle it.

While he was contemplating if staying inside the city in this condition was good or not, Rex saw Evelyn standing up from the corner of his eye. A determined look on her face as she strides closer to him.

Out of nowhere, she held his hand and put it above her heart.

"I know you're troubled with what you've done. I know this incident is something that definitely put a thorn in your heart," Evelyn uttered softly, her hands firmly clasping Rex's as if she was channeling her emotions to him. "But know that this hasn't altered my feelings in the slightest. I've always wanted to be by your side, and now... I want you to be even closer to you still"
