Chapter 986 Fear Manifestation

Chapter 986 Fear Manifestation

Mavenna was surprisingly resourceful in this kind of situation.

But then again, Rex understood that those who came from the ancient era were forced to be resourceful. It was a trait they heavily relied upon for survival. Flunra was the prime example, he was so resourceful that he survived through the bloodiest times.

"My fear...?" Rex uttered with a raised eyebrow.

Giving a firm nod of confirmation, Mavenna replied, "Yes, your fear. I can show you right now"

Out of nowhere, a chuckle interrupted the two.

Calidora was the one who was chuckling, she seemed to be amused by Mavenna's proposal, volunteering to manifest Rex's fear, "I don't know if you noticed, but I'm pretty sure Rex's fear of other beings is too small to be manifested. It's a waste of time"

"Hmmm? I don't know about that" Mavenna replied, casting a teasing smile at her.

At the sight of her smile, Calidora scoffed with confidence.

During the time she spent with Rex, she has never seen him being fearful of anything. Even the Executor and the immeasurable threats he brought with him don't seem to be able to induce fear into Rex's heart.

He was stressed, but that was it, he didn't fear the Executor as an individual.

Just as Calidora was about to say something more, she caught sight of Rex's countenance.

Rex was looking down at the ground, seemingly troubled by the situation.

"Wait—" Only then does Calidora realize that he was wrong, that expression clearly shows that he already has someone in mind. "Are you being serious? You fear someone? You must be a really good performer because I didn't even realize it"

Upon hearing this, Rex clicked his tongue and rebutted, "It's not what you think"

Let's do it. I don't have time, so I'll take that offer.

Recognizing that Mavenna's ability could assist him in pushing his limits and accelerating the progression of his cursed power, he turned to her and subtly nodded, informing her that he would take that offer.

Approaching lightly, Mavenna stood before him with her index finger raised.

Levitating above her finger is a ball of demonic energy.

Tapping on his forehead lightly, her demonic energy pierced his head and infiltrated his mind.

Rex didn't try to resist the demonic energy, allowing it to exert its influence. In no time, a potent beam of energy erupted from his forehead, striking the ground in front of him, the impact instantly gave rise to a summoning demonic array, pulsating with power.

While this was going on, Calidora had her eyes fixed on the demonic array.

Out of all emotions, she was dying of curiosity.

An individual that Rex feared must be really something, and she needs to know who it is.

'Is it the Executors? One of the Origins that he somehow knew? Or maybe the Gods? Who is it? I'm dying to know already!' Countless guesses appeared in Calidora's mind, she was on the edge of her seat, waiting for the demonic array to manifest his fear.

Soon, the demonic array was activated, letting out a swirling demonic smoke.

Under their gaze, the smoke climbed up slowly.

However, it didn't take long before the amorphous mass coalesced into a towering figure, easily surpassing 7 feet with a robust physique. Crimson eyes, resembling unearthly jewels from the depths of Hell, gleamed ominously. Gradually, the figure manifested, revealing its imposing stature to the onlookers.

A great shock swept over both Mavenna and Calidora before it quickly turned to realization.

Both of them could've guessed who Rex feared the most.

Grrr...

Letting out a baritone growl from his mouth as he fixed his sharp animalistic eyes at Rex was none other than Rex himself who was in his Werewolf form. It seemed the only individual who could make Rex feel fear was none other than himself.

Compared to the stern look on Rex's face, the Werewolf Rex wore an unhinged one.

It was drowning in bloodthirst.

Had it been the real him, the entire situation would've been exceedingly dire as he had only been this angry when his parents died. Now, Rex could see the immediate spectacle of his condition when he went berserk in Ratmawati City back then.

Rex wouldn't be surprised if many people were traumatized by this as even he shuddered.

Something straight out of a horror movie.

If anyone asked him about what to do when confronted with him in such a state, then the sole piece of advice that he could give was to start praying because in no probability that they were going to get out of the situation alive.

On the side, Calidora shook her head, she should've known that it would be like this.

'Well, he came here precisely because of this fear' She mused inwardly.

Driven by the fear of losing control once again, especially in the presence of others and the potential harm it could inflict on them, Rex chose to disregard Evelyn's plea and arrived here. So it should be expected that he harbored fear to his own self.

But then again, put in his situation, anyone would end up like him.

Having both the power of a human and a Werewolf has its downside, and is simply a curse.

Contrary to Calidora, Mavenna was mesmerized by what she was seeing.

Mavenna had never witnessed Rex's Werewolf form, despite being aware that he's a human that could transform into a Werewolf. Now that she bears her eyes on its form, she understands the source of pervasive fear that others possess of the notorious entity called Rex Silverstar.

"Don't worry, his power is probably at the eighth-rank realm" Mavenna assured.

Rex nodded his head and went into his battle stance.

He had experience fighting himself in Kaiser's realm, the difference only being the fact that he was now restrained by the portal of ethos. Even then, he figured that no eighth-rank realm entity would be able to hurt him that much.

Swoosh!

In the blink of an eye, the Werewolf Rex blitzes and does an uppercut with his claws.

Splash!

"Karggh!" Rex grunted painfully with his eyes opened wide.

Upon looking at his stomach, he found that the Werewolf Rex's claws penetrated through completely. With the turmoil his internal organs were experiencing, a disturbing amount of blood gushed out of his mouth as he stood there in shock.

Gritting his teeth, he exercised his strength and intended to elbow the Werewolf Rex's face.

But surprisingly, his attack was negated completely.

The Werewolf Rex swiftly parried the incoming elbow strike, countering with a rapid barrage of claw attacks. In mere moments, he executed five slashing motions before Rex was even able to do a thing, leaving behind a trail of claw marks across Rex's face, including his face.

Even the onlookers flinched at the sight as the attack was vicious.

Rex took a quick breath before he kicked the Werewolf Rex away, giving him some space.

At that moment, he turned to look at Mavenna in aghast.

"Didn't you say that it only possesses eighth-rank realm power? I'm pretty sure that's not eighth-rank realm" He asked, completely flabbergasted at the situation. He then repeated, "That's not a damn eighth-rank realm!"

Mavenna smiled wryly as she was also surprised.

Snapping out of her trance, she replied, "It can get stronger the more you fear it, so..."

"Okay, fuck that shit. Cancel your spell, that thing is almost as powerful as me, and there's no way I could match his pace when I'm heavily restrained like this" Rex quickly said, telling Mavenna to cancel the spell right now as this is simply ridiculous.

No way he could exercise against an almost full-power clone of himself.

He would definitely get fucked up.

Upon seeing the expression on Rex's face right now, which was quite pale as the Werewolf Rex was prowling on the ground with the same bloodthirst, Calidora couldn't help but let out a burst of hearty laughter as she never thought to see this kind of scene.

It was funny considering that the only person that could make Rex like this was Rex himself.

Likewise, Mavenna also tried to contain herself to not laugh.

Witnessing that the Werewolf Rex was looking at Rex as if he were prey was truly comical.

"Maybe you should keep on fighting, Rex" Calidora said amidst her laughter, the tears in her eyes were swelling from too much laughing. "If you're wounded enough, then your body's spirit would also be weakened, perhaps it would weaken even faster"

Rex was grinding his teeth as he stepped back little by little, sweating profusely.

He ignored Calidora's teasing remarks and turned to Mavenna, "Stop joking around, this is not funny. Look! He's really intent on killing me! Cancel your damn spell or I swear, I'll take you back to the Executor right this instant!"

Before Mavenna could even answer, the Werewolf Rex already leaped ferociously again.

For a moment, the courtyard was as chaotic as it gets.

Mavenna and Calidora were enjoying the sight as Rex ran throughout the courtyard as if his life depended on it. Even though he wanted this to end, he couldn't deny that he was getting exhausted at a faster rate, and this realization made him even angrier.

...

On the other hand, Dargena City.

It had been hectic ever since Kyran woke up from his deep slumber, the castle was in turmoil.

Flunra with the help of Prof. K, who was slightly exhausted from his journey, spent most of their time analyzing the pattern that Kyran drew on the ground. Both were working seriously without stopping to crack the pattern.

With their combined effort, some results were produced albeit minimal.

A pattern like this is hard to crack without context.

However, as far as they can tell right now, the construct should be some sort of map that leads somewhere. Even though they knew that, it was hard to tell the exact map as there were only two glowing dots that should represent the start and the destination.

Both thought that the start should be their location, Dargena City, but it was clearly not.

It didn't match the terrain around the city.

Additionally, Naela and Ryze were trying to get Kyran to say anything but it didn't work.

Kyran remained silent in his passive state.

Despite the situation inside the chamber, Adhara felt compelled to venture outside of the city to visit the Tigerman Kingdom before making her way to the Dwarven Kingdom. She was told by Prof. K that the arrowhead was given to him when he was near the Tigerman's territory.

She would go there to meet with the Elementals which might be able to help her.

In addition, Flunra asked her to go to the Dwarven Kingdom too.

Knowing the importance of Caraptaros, someone needs to oversee the transportation of Caraptaros. Flunra volunteered to accompany Adhara on her journey, but she refused him, telling him to take care of Kyran as he was needed there.

Of course, Flunra was not going to let her go out alone.

Both of them were arguing back and forth about this until eventually, Ugrok volunteered.

He surprisingly volunteered to accompany her on this journey.

Eventually, Flunra surrendered and only asked that she would keep close contact with him.

'Get stronger. I need to get stronger so that Rex will not need to worry about staying with us. It's up to me as the Female Alpha to take on this role. I can't fail. I must succeed' Adhara pondered inside her head, determined to become stronger to avoid this kind of situation happening ever again.

Dashing through the landscape with Ugrok beside her, she abruptly halted.

Similarly, Ugrok also stopped with a frown.

Scanning their surroundings for a fleeting moment, the frown on his expression deepened as he unmistakably sensed several figures discreetly lurking nearby, Adhara, too, sensed these figures, detecting numerous auras surrounding them from all directions.

It wasn't even that far yet trouble already came knocking.

"Keep close. Try to avoid fighting at all costs if we can" Adhara instructed, her tone serious.

But then, the figures came out from their hiding spots.

All of them possess malicious intent that they didn't bother to conceal.

Upon seeing them, Adhara's sharp eyes sized them up before she asked, "Who are you?"
