The Invincible Full-Moon System

'A countess...?'

Rex looks up to the mysterious woman up in the sky trying to figure out who she is, the glowing crescent moon on her forehead shows that she's definitely related to the moon.

Without a doubt this woman is not a human, there's no way she's a human.

After failing to think of who or what the woman really is, Rex decided to scan the woman with the system but out of nowhere, "Raarghh!!", he screamed feeling a powerful surge of energy attacking his head.

The same thing happened just back when he tries to scan Ochyra University's principal's stats.

But unlike that time when he checks the principal's stats, this one is one hundred times more painful. Rex opens his eyes and finds that everything becomes double, it's like his vision has been tampered with and everything he sees becomes double.

His body in reflex tries to grab his ringing head but the chain stopped him.

Rex feels like his entire world spinning just from trying to check on the mysterious woman's stats, he regretted doing that and now he lost focus on himself and slowly turned into his Werewolf form.

While this is all happening, the mysterious woman looks at him in silence.

Growl!

The anger within him slowly rise from forcefully turning into his Werewolf form, Rex started growling because of a moment of losing focus. The pain inside of him becomes even greater drowning him in a minute of pure agony.

Clank! Clank!

For a couple of times Rex tries to stand up and pull the chains restraining him to no avail, he was forced back down to his knees while the yellow moonlight energy from the Wolf Moon got suppressed by the chains.

Just like the system's description, the chains are working perfectly.

But when he was about to lose his consciousness from going berserk, everything suddenly disappears. The anger, the pain, all of it was blown away without a trace.

Rex blinks his eyes a couple of times and slowly refocuses his attention back to the woman.

Up in the sky, he saw the mysterious woman pointing her slender index finger with black fingernails towards him. She gave Rex familiar yet different energy that snap him out of his daze, this is absolutely phenomenal since she manage to stop his transformation just like that.

While looking at the mysterious woman's eyes that are containing hundreds of blinking stars...

Rex is mesmerized.

It's like he's seeing the entire sky through her black eyes that are darker than the darkness of the night, a few words then escape Rex's mouth in awe, "Who are you...?"

Just as he said that the chains wrapping his body suddenly falls to the ground.

The Chains of Sanctifying Downfall that can even suppress a ninth rank being got deactivated just like that, Rex is conflicted upon seeing this. On one side he was surprised by the mysterious woman's power, but on the other, he feels hurt seeing that an item costing 500,000 Gold got stripped just like that.

"Somone that is closer than you think...", the woman replied with her euphonious astral voice.

Hearing this, the frown on Rex's forehead becomes even more evident. He then walks forward intending to approach the mysterious woman, but his senses alerted him upon taking a step.

Rex's senses are telling him to not move, but the woman's presence begs him to get close.

Fearing that something might happen if he got too close, Rex stretches his hand to the sky as if he's trying to grab the woman. Instantly after that, Rex widen his eyes seeing half of his right arm turned into sizzling black energy.

The terrifying part about this is that he didn't feel any pain at all as if half of his right arm ceased from existence, if he had just taken one more step then his body might've turned just like that.

"I commend your bravery my child, but don't come anymore closer", the mysterious woman said.

Her voice snap Rex back to look at her, she then added, "You might as well realize that I'm not supposed to be in this... realm. My presence is not welcomed by the other Lunirch"

Rex knows the first part of what she was saying but in the last part, he doesn't have a clue.

'Lunirch...?'

Since he's a Royal Black Werewolf that is in nearing the pinnacle of the Werewolf bloodline, Rex's right arm healed almost instantly without a sweat. Rex then looks up and asks again, "Are you the Wolf Moon incarnate...? Or the Countess?"

While Rex is looking at the mysterious woman, he finds that her hands are chained by black chains.

But just as he wonders what the black chains are, he saw the mysterious woman's lips bloom into a stunning smile. She ignores Rex's question and said, "My time here is limited, I'm here to ask you a simple question. Royal Black Prince, do you desire more power than what you already have...?"

Hearing this, Rex was stunned but unconsciously he already answered inside his heart.

For everything that the Supernatural has done that made his life miserable, his intention is pure. Killing those who are guilty of orchestrating his miserable life, he needs way more power than he currently has.

The mysterious woman's stunning smile grew even wider,

Just as he was about to answer her question, the mysterious woman's presence started trembling as her body started to slowly dissipate. Yellow energy that should be the Wolf Moon energy is enveloping her body and suppressing her entire being.

But there are two notifications from the system in his vision, something that Rex didn't expect.

It made his eyes widen in absolute shock,

<Countess of the Dark Luniric is requesting to issue her blessing, Does the user want to receive this blessing and be processed by the system?>

<Yes or No>

These simple yet powerful notifications from the system make Rex gasp.

Rex already told Ryze to find any myth about this entity called Countess of the Dark Luniric that possessed his body way back during his fight against Durrant that used a forbidden spell, ever since that day he tries to find out who she is.

He even tried to buy the information from the system but got shunned down almost instantly.

Not that the system doesn't have any information regarding the Countess of the Dark Luniric, but he got shunned by the ridiculous amount of gold needed to buy the information.

But now he's standing in front of the said entity, she even tries to give him a blessing.

"Quickly, I have no more time in this realm..."

Hearing the euphonious astral voice snap Rex out of his daze, he focuses back on the notification from the system before he finally clicks yes. The notification then disappeared.

Seeing that Rex finally accepted her blessing, the Countess points at Rex once more.

The tip of her index finger then shot out a white light that shone down on Rex before her entire being disappear into nothingness, everything turned normal again as if the Countess of the Dark Luniric was never here in the first place.

Rex was confused as to what just happened, but the system's notifications disturb his thoughts.

<The user has obtained 1000 Mental Stats!>

<Countess of the Dark Lunirc has bound the user's soul!>

<Removing the binding...>

<Sucess!>

<Banished Dark Moon Quest - Final>

Countess of the Dark Luniric has given her blessing to the user, the system has processed the blessing and turned it into a quest format. The user has become appealing to the Countess and has the opportunity to gain the power of the Banished Dark Moon. Finish the task below to gain the Banished Dark Moon King Mark!

Kill the Dark Prince: 0/1

Break the Black Shackle imprisoning the Countess of the Dark Luniric: 0/1

Upon reading the rows of notifications from the system, Rex was surprised to find that the Countess of the Dark Lunirc can even ignite a quest that can give him a King Mark upon completion.

The blood moon quest is impossible to complete.

Yesterday Rex already tried to use the Blood Moon Essence to finish the current Blood Moon Quest but absolutely got denied, the Blood Moon Essence doesn't work. This puts the way to obtaining the Blood Moon King Mark impossible.

No matter how desperate he wants power, he will never kill Mrs. Greene and Robert to gain it.

For some reason, after the Invincible Apparation takes over his body the Kaiser of the Scarlet Garland is displeased with him and changed the Blood Moon Quest into a new one.

It asked him to sacrifice two people that he loves.

What comes to mind thinking about those two people are Mrs. Greene and Robert, and there's absolutely no way that he will sacrifice both of them. Even if by killing them will stop the world from crumbling, he will never do it.

But now that Rex thought about it, 'Doesn't this means...'

'If Kaiser of the Scarlet Garland and Countess of the Dark Luniric are supposed to be the entity behind the Blood Moon and Dark Moon, It basically means they both are gods of the moons'

This realization hits him remembering the things that had happened to him.

From the Banished Dark Moon Quest Rex finds that the Countess is banished and shackled, during the Invincible Apparation take over he vaguely remembered that he's not using the Blood Moon King Mark.

Everything started to make sense, Rex slowly piecing everything together.

'Whatever their problems with each other, the Countess is banished for an unknown reason and I used her power during the Invincible Apparation take over. So that made the Kaiser furious hence the change in the Blood Moon Quest'

Rex shakes his head feeling that he got pulled into something way bigger than himself.

Supernatural is hard enough and now he's pulled to the problems of the gods, but if this will make him more powerful then he will gladly do it. The next step of becoming a stronger Werewolf is to gain a King Mark, and this gives him another chance to get it.

After he refocuses back to his surroundings, Rex finds that turns out he's still chained.

'It's an illusion? At this point, I'm not going to bother questioning everything that happened to me', Rex thought before he sat back down, he will wait to see if the Wolf Moon still has any effect on him or not.

If not then he will go to the others and check on them, but Rex doubts that he will be fine.

The reason for his thinking is because right now he can still feel the Countess' energy covering his body and it's getting thinner, the moment it disappears he will probably be affected by the Wolf Moon again.

Out of nowhere, Devo then came out of Rex's shadow.

Rex summoned Devo before he glanced at him and said, "Can you help me secure the perimeter, make sure nobody is nearing here until the Wolf Moon is finished"

"Alright, it's been quite a while since I stretch my limbs", Devo replied excitedly.

But when he was about to dash away, Rex stopped him and hesitantly asked, "Quick question, did you see a lady in black dress in the sky? She should be right around there', he pointed at the sky where the Countess was levitating before.

Hearing this, Devo's lightning eyes squinted, "No... I only saw you doze off"

"Okay then, never mind..."

Meanwhile, Somewhere near the Great Barricade.

A place just a couple of miles away from a massive stronghold on the hole of the Great Barricade is filled with Cessation Knights, hundreds of camps can be seen in this place housing the Cessation Knights that are on duty here.

The Cessation Knights are all powerful Awakened, all of them are fifth rank Awakened or above.

From the look of the stronghold a couple of miles from this place, it should belong to the Demons judging from the fiery walls guarded by many demons varying in type and size. It's been a few weeks since the demons made a move.

It's eerie for them to not make any move despite their current advantage.

Upon closer inspection, the walls of the Demon Stronghold are tattered with many marks of battle on them. The Cessation Knight has launched many campaigns but only manage to breach the stronghold once before driven out by the reinforcement from the Succubus and the Shapeshifter.

Just in the middle of the place lies a bigger camp compared to the others.

A man with orange hair can be seen sitting behind a table with a lazy expression, he's currently putting both of his legs on the table trying to relax a bit in the midst of chaos.

If Rex were here, he will recognize this man as Denzel Rogers.

The ninth rank Awakened that he met when he was in Beah City, Denzel is the man that was sent to help the Demonic cities alongside Diana. He's a fire Elementalist that has the ability to use second circle Pneuma Spell or even higher.

But his relaxing time was disturbed when a man wearing white armor enters the camp.

"If you come here without bringing me anything important, I will burn you", Denzel said lazily while leaning back on the chair with his sharp natural red eyes fixated on the man in white armor.

Hearing this, the man bowed slightly and said, "I apologize to disturb your time sir Denzel"

"Unfortunately I bring grievous news from the cities on the west side of our camp, while we're attacking the strongholds some Shapeshifters and Succubus manage to sneak into their cities and caused heavy damages from the inside", the man added.

Denzel stood up exposing his ninth rank aura in absolute anger, his expression dictates that clearly.

With a burning aura, Denzel then points at the man in anger, "What about the Awakened I instructed to be on standby in those cities?! I told you to distribute enough to defend them!"

"Sir Denzel... I did just what you asked, but they wiped them all out", the man replied.

Upon getting the very bad news, Denzel paced left and right inside the camp with a frown. He's trying to think clearly about how to handle this situation, "They are sending skirmishers to the cities while we're attacking them, it's clear that they're starting to get overwhelmed by our attacks"

"Asking from the  Hester Family for an Awakened to fortify the mind will handle the Succubus, but the higher-ranked Shapeshifters are way harder to detect in human form. I just hope the radar can finish quickly..."

Denzel thought out loud while the man in armor stands still waiting for his orders.

After deliberating for a while, Denzel finally said, "Find the entry point of the skirmishers and stationed a platoon to intercept them, and also request the Hester Family t-"

Before Denzel can finish, he suddenly sensed something.

Out of nowhere, Denzel disappeared from the camp and reappeared in front of the camp.

He's looking at the Demon Stronghold that is emitting demonic energy more powerful than before, and this makes Denzel frown as he saw red demonic energy starting to cover the entire Demon Stronghold.

The man got outside of the camp and saw the same scene as Denzel.

"What are they doing...?", the man asks from the side.

Without even looking at the man, Denzel then mutters with an urgent expression on his face, "The Archdemons almost finished creating a barrier for the stronghold, this is very bad..."
