Rex and Edward went inside the training room,
Edward then explained to him about his meeting with Hans, the day of the delivery of the second spellbook.
While listening to Edward, Rex's expression didn't change.
The stoic look on his face is unmoving, and even Edward look at him in confusion as he explains the meeting he had.
"He's being sarcastic about the spellbook, and I just feel like he's up to something", Edward said.
Hearing this, Rex fall into thoughts, 'They should've caught up about the rigged spellbook, It will confuse them knowing that the second one is not'
After thinking about that,
Rex nodded his head as he's hearing Edward's explanation, "It's okay, call Ari to meet me at my room tonight"
Instead of leaving, Edward still looks at Rex with a troubled look.
"We're talking about Hans from the Atkins family here, this is not something light and he might do something", Edward added.
Based on what he encountered that night,
His guts are telling him that something is wrong, and looking at Rex's relaxed expression makes him even more concerned.
Rex then grabbed Edward's shoulder, "Relax, everything is gonna be okay", he said softly.
After getting told by Rex for the second time, also with his assuring look, Edward finally nodded his head and wanted to leave.
But before he can leave, Rex suddenly remembers something.
"I almost forgot, What did Adhara do these days?", Rex asks in curious.
The woman that came during their chat with Rosie is not a usual thing, Rex never saw Adhara do something aside from training.
It's very unusual, and Rex is very curious about it.
"What do you mean? Didn't she always train?", Edward asks.
Rex then explained, "I saw a woman came up to us, she wears a formal suit and she's searching for Adhara before they both left"
"Adhara didn't say anything after that too", he added.
Hearing this, Edward hesitated for a moment and Rex caught this.
Rex stares at Edward intently studying his expression, and this makes Edward stutter.
"Tell me what she's doing, Are you both hiding something from me?", Rex said trying to convince Edward to spill the beans.
This makes Edward put on the spot, he looks at Rex for a moment deliberating.
But then, "Oh yeah! I have to meet my lecturer for counseling, see you later!", Edward said suddenly before he run out of the room.
Looking at this, Rex was aghast.
"What the heck are they hiding from me", Rex mumbles in disbelief.
Night came,
Rex dedicates the remaining time before the night to train his new technique from Chandler, he's still limited to the strike like he did to Chandler before.
He tried to conjure other form of spells, but he can't do it.
Every time he tries to conjure other spells, the lightning mana becomes unstable.
Rex tried to control it desperately but it eventually dissipated, and he tried this countless times until his mana ran out.
He's surprised that his mana is exhausted,
Normally he wouldn't run out of mana even during a desperate fight, but this technique however takes up a huge chunk of his mana.
During his training, Rex needs to rest every half an hour before resuming his training.
Thanks to his high lightning affinity, not only does his mana absorption become faster but his mana reserve and mana regeneration are also enhanced greatly.
This makes his training even more efficient,
Arriving at his room, Rex found the others are already there.
They're all already gathered and waiting for him on the hall just like he expected.
Edward is already there with Ari beside him,
Ari is already informed about the current situation, and his serious expression said it all.
Meanwhile, Adhara, and Kyran is confused about the tense atmosphere looking at Ari and Edward being all serious and stiff.
"Ari, come with me to the other room while you guys wait here", Rex instructed.
They both then walk to the other room leaving the others confused especially Kyran and Adhara,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtInside the room,
"Have Edward informed you about the situation?", Rex asks.
Ari nodded his head before he replied, "Yes, he saw Hans the Snake while he's strolling around the university which is very unusual"
Hearing this Rex nodded his head,
'Edward didn't tell him about the delivery, that's good', Rex thought.
He then said, "I want the others to be notified of this, and make sure to be alert at all times because the Atkins might try and do something"
"Also, can you request more people from Stevanus? It will be helpful", Rex continues.
But to his disappointment, Ari shakes his head, "The situation of the demonic cities is dire, and all of the 25 Golden Crest is instructed by the UWO president to deploy all manpower to prevent such thing from happening again"
Rex frowns hearing this,
"What are the families going to do?", Rex asks.
Ari then explained, "A group of Awakened will be put in each city associated with Ratmawati City, and the remaining Awakened will be stationed in Ratmawati City"
'If that's the case, how did Hans get the time to bother with us?', Rex thought with a frown.
The instruction from the UWO president should make all of the families busy, it was an attack inside human territory after all so it's quite urgent.
But Rex still can't think of why Hans is there,
Although the spellbook is important, with the instruction from the UWO then the chance of getting it stolen by other families is low.
No need to bring Hans to it,
But nevertheless, Hans is the one who came to take the spellbook.
Aside from that, Edward also stresses Rex about his feeling that they might try and do something to them.
"Alright then, go tell the others about the situation", Rex commanded.
After telling Ari that, Ari left the place.
Rex then walks out and meets the curious eyes of Adhara and Kyran, even Rosie and Ryze are there looking at him confusedly.
"Rex, What's happening?", Adhara asks.
The others also wanted to know, they can feel something is going on.
Rex then said, "I want you guys to be alert and be back to the room exactly at 10 every day, and break this if something happened to you"
He gave out a white crystal that he bought from the shop,
If one of the crystals breaks, the other that owns these crystals will be alerted about their last position that can be used in such times.
After handling all of the crystals,
Rex then said, "The Atkins might do something, so I don't want any of you leaving the university until the situation has cooled down"
With that being said, they all nodded their heads.
Kyran and Adhara know how hard to deal with the Platchi, and the Atkins is way more powerful.
Rex scans the others in front of him to make sure they heard what he said, "Remember, get back at 10 and no one can leave the university until I said so"
He said it again, but this time he presses his words towards Kyran.
Out of all the people here, none of them worry Rex more than Kyran because of his carelessness.
Rex then scans the others in front of him, but his eyes then fall to Rosie who is looking around in confusion not knowing what he meant.
Without explaining to her, Rex gets back to his room leaving the others.
Meanwhile, After Rex left the room.
Adhara is shocked when she turns around to find Rosie behind her,
Yesterday she got back to the room late and went straight to her room, so she doesn't know that Rosie has already occupied the last room.
"Rosie? What are you doing here?", Adhara asks.
The moment that Rosie came to the university, it already feels odd for her.
Rosie's sudden appearance that startled her and Rex's underwhelming reaction when he's the one who is so anti-Rosie before is weird.
This already form a red flag on Adhara's mind,
"Didn't Rex tell you? I will be staying with you guys", Rosie replied nonchalantly while she rubs her hair with a towel.
She just got out of the shower, and her hair is still wet.
Hearing this, Adhara was at a loss for words.
There's a slight pang in her heart upon seeing Rosie's nonchalant behavior, "Nevermind", she said before heading towards her room.
But then, "Wait!", Rosie called.
Adhara turns to her back with a confused look, "What's Rex talking about before?", Rosie asks.
She just got here for a day, and she doesn't know the things that happened to Rex and the others while he's here.
"Just do what Rex said, don't ask questions", Adhara replied lazily before she enters the room.
After she got inside the room,
Rosie looks at the room weirdly before she called for Clarice that is cleaning the hall, "Isn't that Rex's room? Why is Adhara there?"
Clarice looks towards the room before she replied, "That is Rex and Adhara's room"
Realizing that Rex and Adhara have been sleeping together, Rosie bit her lips as she glance at the room with a peeved look before she went inside her room.
The day passed,
After doing his training with Chandler, Rex then wanted to go out of the university.
His training is still stuck, he still can't figure out how to use the technique properly as the lightning strike is all he can do.
But when he's in the lobby of the university, a big screen right under the red crystal catches his eyes which makes the place crowded.
Many of the students are gathering in the lobby,
The big screen displayed the news about the demonic cities and based on how it looked, the situation is not pretty.
"The president of UWO headquarters, Sebrof stated that the reinforcement will come in a day or two and exactly at that time they will launch an attack to Benrith City"
"Although Sebrof's statement calmed many down, some are still creating riot all over the sectors"
"Especially when the demons have started to rampaging to neighboring cities, and many cities are at risk the longer the reinforcement arrives"
The students around are discussing amongst themselves in worry,
Just like Ochyra University, the third and fourth years students will be deployed to the battlefield if the UWO deemed it necessary.
And many of them upperclassmen starting to get nervous,
Faraday University hasn't announced them to be deployed yet, but this makes the upperclassmen becomes even more nervous.
It's like a ticking bomb that will decide their fate,
Looking at the big screen Rex frowns, 'They probably don't know how the demons manage to attack the cities, I have to tell them', he thought.
Because of the encounter, he has with the Vampires in Qrila City,
Rex knows that the Vampires found a way to turn humans into one of them, and this will be devastating if they manage to raise their number this way.
Imagine a horde of Vampires that are one of the strongest Supernatural,
With humanity's development now with so few Awakened, it will spell their doom if the Supernatural manage to raise their number.
After determining to help, Rex walks out of the university.
Rex knows the news about him that is broadcasted, and he knows that his parents are dying in worry because of it.
So he decided that he will visit them,
He will also use this opportunity to tell them to be careful.
Although he's not sure about the Atkins Family that is said to be scheming, it's not a bad thing to be careful until he confirms if it's true or not.
'It'll be fine with this right?', Rex thought as he look at the bags in his hands.
He bought food and jewelry that he will give to his mother,
Rex remembers that his mother always liked jewelry and expensive stuff, so he decided to buy them for 10 grand to at least make her mother happy.
Robert on the other hand, Rex didn't buy any for him.

On nowhere inside Supernatural Territory,
A man suddenly pops his head out of the ground sneakily,
The man is wearing a camo that blends with the ground, and one can see a gun strapped on his back roughly from the side.
His head penetrates the ground before stopping just enough for his eyes to see around.
After glancing around the place with caution,
Slowly and cautiously, the man emerges his body from the ground creating as little sound as possible.
The man then lightly walks towards the side and hide behind a tree,
In front of his position, there's somekind of a village that can hold a hundred lives.
He's on the edge of a hill with the village in front of him,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTo go to the village, the man needs to slide down.
The village is lively even though it's already night, and from afar the man can see that the residence of the village is not humans.
After making sure the place is safe,
The man signals to the others before four other men in camo come out of their hiding spot.
With hand signs, they signal to advance to the uneven ground in front of them that should be perfect for their next hiding spot.
But before they can move,
NGINNGG!!
A red light suddenly lit up making the men in camo jump to hide from the lights.
Their reflex is quite good showing their trained background, and they all recover after the red light dissipates.
"Platoon leader, what was that?", a man asked the leader.
The leader frowns because he too doesn't know what it is, "Let's check it out first, the village can wait for a little more"
After saying that,
The group of men in camo crawl their bodies towards the red light from their right.
They're going uphill to see the source of the red light clearer,
Upon reaching the top of the hill, they look in front before their eyes widened in surprise at what lies in front of them.
"That's a hive!", one of the men gasp in shock.
Then another also gasp, "What are they doing here? They're not meant to be here!"
The platoon leader is also in a state of disbelief, "Demon hive! We need to retreat and report to the base of our findings"
But just after they wanted to flee the scene,
BOOM!
A humongous three-headed red demon suddenly landed on their spot,
Its body is at least two times their heights, with two demonic saber that emits a red energy on each of its hand.
The demon came suddenly surprising the men in camo,
All of the men in camo got pushed back because of the impact, they all roll down the hill before stopping after hitting a tree or rocks.
Out of the five men in camo, three of them got injured.
The platoon leader is not one of them,
He looks to his front and saw the three-headed demon looking at them with a smile that shows its razor-sharp teeth.
Looking at this, he lies on the ground helplessly.
From the looks of it, the group of men in camo will not survive this night.
But rather than giving up, the platoon leader takes a flare gun.
SWOOSH!!
He fires it to the sky as a red ball shot out from the gun,
TAK!
With a wave of the demon's tail, the blue ball got flicked by it to the side without even reaching the sky to signal who the platoon leader meant the flare for.
It makes the men in camo helpless knowing that they will die in vain without finishing their deginated mission.
They even unable to tell their findings,
The demon walks closer to the platoon leader with a creepy smile.
Instead of giving up, the platoon leader reaches out for his communication device.
He then pressed the communication device,
Beep!
"State your team and purpose", the person on the other side said.
The platoon leader then hurriedly said, "Headquarter this is team Li-", but before he can continue,
CRASH!!
The demon already whipped his head splitting it instantly,
"Hello? Hello?!"
The person on the other side tries to call out, but the only thing he heard is the scream of the men in camo as the demon killed them all until eventually,
Beep!
The communication device got cut out,
