The Invincible Full-Moon System

Chapter 943 Forgetting The Actual Prize

?

Despite having the position of an emissary, the Dark Elf is not higher than General Theodas.

In the hierarchical structure of the Dark Elf Kingdom, General Theodas is a noble and also the right-hand man of King Jorik who has taken responsibility for the entire Dark Elf military forces and is also the personal protector of the queen.

A question from his is as heavy as a question from King Jorik himself.

"Well? Aren't you going to answer my question?" General Theodas pressured further.

Bowing his body slightly, showing that he was apologetic about what he was going to say, the emissary then replied, "Forgive me for overstepping, General, but I have not the authority to speak about this matter. I hope you understand. Also, please refrain from speaking about this encounter to anyone else"

General Theodas frowned and squinted his eyes when he heard this.

For the emissary to keep this a secret from him, the matter must be extremely serious.

"Does the King know about this?" General Theodas asked again.

However, instead of answering, the Dark Elf lowered his head a bit more and remained silent.

Seeing this response, General Theodas couldn't conceal his surprise. It was one thing if he had not been informed about this matter, but it was an entirely different matter when King Jorik, the ruler of the kingdom, remained unaware of such a significant event transpiring within his domain.

Pausing for a moment, his mind raced in contemplation.

'Surely, he couldn't tell me because of Lady Evelyn's request. And if she didn't want me and King Jorik to know, then she must be worried that her visit here would be spread. But who is she worried about? A person that me and King Jorik are close to... then it must be Lord Rex'

General Theodas managed to grasp the situation quickly.

Originating as the head of a noble family before becoming the general, he's adept at this.

Raising his gaze, he then turned to look at the castle a determined flicker appeared in his eyes, 'If that's the case, then she must be coming here to meet with someone. She doesn't know many Dark Elves, so it must be easy to figure out who she's meeting. I need to know, not necessarily to poke my nose into her business, but for the safety purposes'

Meanwhile, the Dwarven Kingdom.

It was already some time ago that the battle against the Rastrikan Demons had ended.

At the start of the battle, the Dwarven Kingdom's forces and its reinforcements were having a very low morale as their enemy was the strongest, and the most vicious Demon Lord of the Rastrikan Demons. But that very Demon Lord went on a rampage and killed his own legion.

Under his might, he managed to end the fight one-sidedly.

Just to show that had he not gone berserk, the kingdom might have been destroyed.

But thankfully, they prevail and survive.

Surely, their deceased ancestors looking down at them from the sky had given their blessing and caused the battle to end this way. Even then, the fact that Demon Lord Kirgil escaped from the battlefield still made them worry.

Despite their victory, the fact that someday, these Demons would be back is troubling.

It was this that made fighting the Rastrikan Demons depressing.

Not only were they known to be brutal and very powerful, but no matter how many times the Dwarves won against them, they would come back eventually and launch another attack until the Dwarven Kingdom was razed into the ground.

However, shockingly, their doubt was completely wiped away at the sight of a phenomenon.

Flunra, who had returned from chasing Demon Lord Kirgil, stood atop the wall alongside Lady Lauren, Sir Daniel, a Dwarf Captain, a Tigerman Captain, and a Dark Elf Captain. All of them gazed intently at the horizon, where a magnificent sight unfolded before their eyes.

A horrifying yet beautiful scenery at the same time.

It appeared a couple of hours ago, and the tortured entity was definitely Demon Lord Kirgil.

"With this, the Rastrikan Demons are no more. Tell your people that it's over, you can all relax, the Rastrikan Demons is gone for good" Flunra, casting his eyes to the Dwarf Captain said with confidence in his tone.

Upon hearing this, the Dwarf Captain nodded and left, "I'll bear the good news..."

Subsequently, the Tigerman Captain and the Dark Elf captain excused themselves as they would need to assess the casualties their forces suffered and handle the aftermath of the fight so that they could report it later to their Kings.

"Guess we're still underestimating Lord Rex to an extent" Sir Daniel uttered his thought.

Lady Lauren nodded her head in agreement, "Yes, it appears so"

Even though the two of them were directly a part of Rex's forces, it would be a lie if they didn't feel intimidated at all against the notorious Rastrikan Demons. But turns out, there was no need for them to be worried as their current leader is even fiercer.

It was not even close.

Rex has managed to defeat the entire Rastrikan Demons legions in mere days.

On the other hand, while listening to the two, Flunra nodded in affirmation realizing Rex's intention in doing something like this. 'Great work, my Lord, the effect is instant. I'm sure others would be confident in you even more with this' He praised inwardly.

'Compared to the other Princes, I'm going to say you are more aware' Flunra added.

Due to the incident of him going berserk back home, Flunra had thought that Rex would be going against the Rastrikan Demons to let out some steam like any other Princes would do when they were under a huge amount of stress.

Similarly, the brutal endeavor he did to Demon Lord Kirgil should be because of his wrath.

But turns out, it was not entirely for that.

Even in his frustration, Rex remained level-headed, setting him apart from other Princes that Flunra had served or encountered in the past. Anger is a Werewolf's weakness and strength, and Rex was able to utilize his anger enough to lean more on making it a strength rather than a weakness.

Now, even Lady Lauren and Sir Daniel trusted his power more.

Surely, this wasn't only experienced by the two of them, others should also feel more trust.

But then again, it's hard to not acknowledge Rex's power when the testament, the sight of Demon Lord Kirgil turned into a decoration in the sky, restrained with powerful black lightning dragons and tortured is displayed for everyone to see.

Only a madman would dismiss Rex's power as nothing after seeing this testament.

In addition, it was also not them who witnessed this testament.

Huvuki and the Dwarven Army alongside Hastios and the Elven Army could feel the tremble in the chasm of mana in the surroundings, and eventually saw Demon Lord Kirgil being pinned in the sky, being turned into a living testament.

Many of them wondered why Rex didn't come with them back to the Dwarven Kingdom.

Turns out, he was dealing with the last Demon Lord.

One of the Dwarves Captains strode over and looked at Huvuki with teary eyes.

"M- My King, it's Demon Lord Kirgil... then doesn't it mean..."

"Yes... the Rastrikan Demons are defeated completely"

Upon hearing this, the Dwarf alongside the others who are near enough to catch Huvuki's words began to tear up, unable to contain the emotions swelling within them. Right now marks the end of their haunting terror of the Rastrikan Demons who were responsible for massacring their ancestors and would never let them live in peace.

Some sobbed profusely, their tears wetting their thick mustaches and bears.

Each one of them, a full-grown, burly Dwarves had their stone hearts melted and expressed their emotions openly. It was a genuine moment that the Dwarves shared with each other, a moment when they were finally free from looming danger.

Huvuki watches this with a slight smile, enduring his own emotions as the King.

With determination, he gazed at Demon Lord Kirgil in the sky.

His eyebrows ceased together as this is a favor that would need to be repaid, so he swore to himself in his heart, 'I'll do anything to repay this back, Lord Rex. Mark my words, for rescuing my kingdom, I swear that I will provide any help that I can...'

On the other side, the Elven Army halted their march seeing the Dwarves stopped.

"Should we tell them to keep moving? Demon Lord Kirgil might already be dead, but the fight might still be going" An Elf approaches Huvuki, riding a mythical beast, and asks with concern as the fight might not be finished yet.

In return, Hastios pondered for a second, deliberating his options.

Given the Dwarves' history with the Rastrikan Demons and the immense pain and suffering they had endured, it was only natural for them to be emotional. In fact, it would have been rather unusual if they hadn't experienced a surge of emotions considering the magnitude of their past, painful ordeals.

Recognizing that it's best to not intervene, Hastios shook his head, "Let's leave them be"

"Send our fastest scout to go on ahead and check the Dwarven Kingdom. If the battle is still going, I would inform King Huvuki to keep moving" He added, commanding the Elf with a wave of his hand.

Inside, Hastios hoped that the battle was already over.

Seeing the current state of the Dwarves, it's clear that they needed this time for themselves.

Meanwhile, Rex and the others were a minute into their journey to the Dwarven Kingdom.

Adhara is standing at the very front, leading the group while Rex is at the very back, still frustrated from being rejected earlier.  I could make do with five minutes, at least it'll satisfy me a bit until we reach back to the Dwarven Kingdom. Why is she acting like this?

Despite his stoic expression, he's still complaining inside his head.

Usually, Adhara has never rejected him as she also wanted to do it with him every time.

But seems like she had a change of traits during his absence.

I already knew that the Hare Full Moon would heighten my and the others' libido. I'm confident in my ability to control my sexual urges, but this is way worse than I expected. It feels almost similar to the first time I was about to do it with Evelyn.

Compared to the usual sexual urges, this one is more extreme.

Rex could feel his mind becoming foggy and it's hard to think of other things aside from that.

<Hare Moon's effect is not a natural reaction of sexual urges, it's a supernatural phenomenon. Compared to the normal sexual urge, the one induced by the Hare Moon is amplified with numerous effects that would get worse through time>

Well, if I indulge in it, would the effect lessen?

<Yes, the Luna would have the most effect in lessening the effect of the Hare Moon. However, other female pack members would also be able to reduce the effect albeit not as potent, and would need to do more>

Nodding his head, he decided to focus on calming himself down for now.

But in the process, his eyes caught sight of Mazel and Aructh still following him from behind.

Just as Rex was about to tell them to go back to their remaining spared legions, his eyes widened realizing something.  Damn it, I forgot because of this fog in my mind. Caraptaros, it's still at the center of the lake and is neglected.

Seeing Aructh and Mazel made him remember that he had forgotten about Caraptaros.

Despite its appearance, Rex didn't kill it.

Rex was already planning to make Caraptaros his own the moment he learned it from Aructh and Mazel, it's a unique Demon that was given by the Demon Origin himself! In no circumstances he would let Caraptaros go without making it his.

"Wait, let's go back for a bit. I forgot something" He suddenly said and halted his steps.

Upon hearing this, Adhara turned with a raised brow, "What did you forget?"

"The actual prize of defeating the Rastrikan Demons," He said with an excited smile, pivoting around and starting to make his way back. "It's a gift from the Demon Origin himself, and I'm going to make it mine"

"By mine you mean...?" Adhara asked again.

But this made Rex smile even wider, "Of course, I'm going to turn it into a Werewolf"
