Rex was not going to let King Samobas go with this mistake.
Even though he managed to gain a beneficial deal out of this meeting, that doesn't mean he would accept the knowledge of the rebellion group being used by Demelza against him like this.
If he wanted to create a firm nation, he would need to destroy every weak link.
Although he had already made a secret deal with King Samobas regarding the future of the Tigerman race, he was not going to let this slide even at the cost of a mighty ally. Despite their physical toughness, there are still other races that he can work with.
"Instead of choosing swift death like a hero, you choose painful death like a traitor"
Still giving King Samobas a deathly stare, Rex takes a couple of steps forward. Each of his steps resounded like a death knell, ringing in the King's ears. "It's your choice, and it's not my fault that you have chosen poorly for yourself and for your entire kingdom..."
King Samobas' lips trembled when he saw this, his mind was clouded with gripping fear.
Out of sheer fright for his entire kingdom, not himself in particular, knowing exactly that Rex would destroy the entire kingdom due to this, he shifted his gaze to Demelza asking for help. "D-Duchess Demelza! Help me explain this to him, my kingdom is at stake!"
Upon hearing this, Demelza's eyes which are already drowning in a blood mist flickered.
"Spare him, Lord Rex. It's not his fault. I caught the wind from an escaped Tigerman, a young girl that said her kingdom is attacked by the Dark Elves and Dwarves. As I'm nearby, I investigate and meet with him" Demelza said while still shrouded in the blood mist.
Rex glanced back at her and raises one of his eyebrows, "A young girl...?"
"Yes... three Tigerman in fact, and they seem to be a family. Moreover, King Samobas refused to answer me as to why the Dark Elves and Dwarves are attacking him. But I have my ways to get answers that he can't resist" Demelza added with a particular gaze in her eyes.
'Mind control, huh...' Rex thought as he can instantly tell from the look Demelza has.
But more importantly, it turns out the news was spread because of his kindness. 'It must be the Tigerman family I spared. Even though we're already enemies, I still can't get his ideals out of me' Rex thought with a light sigh.
Knowing that it's partly his fault, the killing intent coming from him dissipated.
Upon seeing this King Samobas held his chest as he can finally breathe in relief, he doesn't care if he died but his kingdom is at stake and that is what grow this fear inside of him. The Tigerman race has lost too much already and can't afford to lose more.
With that Demelza turns into blood mist before she leaves the place as if she was never here.
Rex clicks his tongue in displeasure before he cast one last look at King Samobas, filled with warning. "In the near future, I or my other pack members will come back here. At that time, make sure everything is ready as per the deal we make. I'll see you when I see you, King Samobas..."
After saying that, Rex also disappeared from the throne room, leaving the room in silence.
The next day, the sun came up and shine brightly, giving a warm and good feel.
It was different compared to the other days when the sun is nothing but a scorching pest in the sky that keeps on coming back. Of course, the cause of this change in sensation was due to the good news that the entire Silverstar Pack received from Rex.
Most of them were excited when they were told that Rex has gain a good haul.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEncountering the Eye of Elemental at this dire time in need of power was like a blessing from the world itself, they can now focus on training without the need of searching for more resources to assist them.
For the first time, the Silverstar Pack has undergone closed-door training entirely.
Aside from Gistella that needs to keep resting on her bed until the matter regarding the curse has been taken care of, Adhara, Evelyn, and Flunra are inside their own respective chambers training for the upcoming fight.
Rex has given them an objective of at least reaching the eighth-rank realm.
Of course, the three that has their mind linked to the Alpha has the imminent desire to help him. Thus, the three started their training without saying anything and dwell in the ancient chasm of magic and rune.
It was only Rex that is still outside, he needs to take care of a couple more things before that.
Getting out of his bed chamber which feels a little bit empty without the presence of Adhara and Evelyn, he walked out and instantly heads to the great hall where the three guard captains are already standing in a line.
Each of them emits a different vibe, and there are also some changes in their appearance.
Due to the items he has given them for starters in order to free them from their basic bloodline, it's bound for them to experience some changes like this. But Rex didn't bother them and sat on his throne before crossing his leg.
Silence filled the entire great hall while the three captain guards stand straight like an arrow.
Instead of dealing with them, Rex is currently thinking about something in his mind as it can be seen that he's gazing into the void. 'From the Elemental Stones that I gained, I practically have 40 plus million gold in my pocket. But I'll not convert them to gold unless I need it'
Now that he gained an immense amount of gold, he can start to make some changes.
Of course one of the important change that he needs to do is to expand the castle and give the Supernaturals a proper place to live, it's also an investment for the future nation that he's going to create.
The System said that it'll cost 10 million gold to expand the castle using the current module.
Rex thought that this is very expensive albeit the benefit that comes with it is immense. One such benefit is also the expansion of the Circling Sentinel and the barrier that would cover the entire territory, not just the castle alone.
If he changed the module then the Supernaturals under him would be exposed to danger.
Albeit not quite an ideal place for them to live in, Rex is going to accept it for now at first. But now that he's got the gold to expand the castle, he decided to go through with the 10 million gold investment. The Eye of Elemental is a literal blessing as he now can actually make a change.
There's no need for being petty as he needs to develop his own force and land.
Sure, the fights he has gone through can be handled by him and the Silverstar Pack alone.
But now that the Executor appears in the future, Rex can already tell that even if he really achieves the necessary strength to beat the Executor, his entire focus needs to be fighting him not the whole battle.
From that alone, he realized that he needs people and numbers to fight the Executor.
'A huge investment considering that it'll cost 10 million gold, but that's the best action as I don't need to buy much to help the others train except a few formations to increase their mental clarity and reach unification easier' Rex thought before he eventually nodded his head.
Now that he has assembled his mind, his attention shifted to the three guard captains.
Rex doesn't know how much time he has taken to arrange his mind, but he reckons that it's at least more than ten minutes yet these guard captains hardly move and don't even disturb his mind which is a good thing.
Looking at the three, his eyes spotted their changes almost instantly.
Gelmar is quite a robust elf with a stern and serious complexion that shows off his experience. From a regular Elf, he turned into a High Elf which causes his pointy ears to grow and his affinity to the wind element to also become stronger.
<Gelmar Advaris>
Race: High Elf
Power: Rank Five(Peak) - Advaris Wind Elementalist
Mental: 190
Strength: 270
Agility: 235
Endurance: 175
Intelligence: 230
'His stats were increased and he managed to become a small realm stronger' Rex thought.
Although he's still not strong enough to be a worthy guard leader, this improvement is quite a good improvement for one day. Rex nodded his head in affirmation before his eyes then shifted to the figure standing beside him.
On the left side of Gelmar is Linthia, she's from the Fairy race.
Unlike most of the fairies that he has encountered, Rex has never seen a fairy that is the size of a regular human. But the system said that fairies have the ability to control their size to whichever one they like.
Since Linthia lived alongside humans, she address her size appropriately.
Linthia has a slender frame that makes her look young in comparison to the others, she has long ink-dark hair that reaches her waist. Black freckles can be seen on his shoulders and neck, but it's not too much that can make her look weird.
But out of her features, the shadowy color underneath her eyes is the most eye-catching.
<Linthia Darkmuse>
Race: Adult Dark Fairy
Power: Rank Five(Early) - Dream and Fear Conjurer
Mental: 300
Strength: 70
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAgility: 110
Endurance: 60
Intelligence: 60
'She has such a high mental stat, maybe her power revolves around mental attacks and spells? I can really use her ability if that's the case' Rex thought finding Linthia's stats is intriguing, she has quite a potential to become valuable.
Lastly, Rex's eyes glance to the last one, Dindora from the Dryad race.
Dindora if put into human age looks to be a mature woman which contrasts completely with Linthia's appearance that of a teenager, she is developed in various parts of her body, and also has enchanting green curly hair that glitters with a green hue.
Similar to Elves, she also has slightly pointy ears albeit not as long as the Elves.
Moreover, her eyes are bright yellow which looks almost unnatural, it's surprising that she was able to live in human territory without being noticed as a Supernatural. But then again, with her alluring appearance, a blind man in love would probably take her in without question.
<Dindora Ashia Vinticella>
Race: Priest of Nature
Power: Rank Five(Mid) - Nature Elementalists
Mental: 120
Strength: 85
Agility: 180
Endurance: 110
Intelligence: 305
'From Apprentice of Nature to Priest of Nature. By the sounds of it, her power should be magic-oriented and possibly healing. Maybe aside from Evelyn, grooming her into a healer is a plausible way' Rex thought as he finished gaining the fundamental knowledge of these three.
Scanning their nervous eyes, Rex then open his mouth, "It's time to put you earn your place"
"We are going to be in closed-door training, I don't know when we're going to be finished but it shouldn't be that long. In the meantime, I want the three of you and the other guards to guard the castle and beyond. Nobody except for the Dark Elves, Dwarves, and the Tigerman race are allowed to get close. Do you understand?" he added with a stern and commanding voice.
But then, Gelmar opens his mouth and asked, "What do you mean by the castle and beyond?"
"Great question, Gelmar" Rex replied with a light smile on his face, he then waved his hands and opens the gate leading outside with his authority over the castle. "Why don't you take a look for yourself?"
Upon hearing this, Gelmar and the other two slowly gazes at their backs before they gasped.
Viewing the outside of the castle, the three of them can see an immense change happening done by an unknown force that seems to build all kinds of buildings that poked from beyond the wall of the castle.
"What kind of sorcery is this...?"
