The Invincible Full-Moon System

Once again, Rex was able to outwit the Lunirich Gods.

Since the sudden attack from those cowardly Gods that almost took him out—he swore that he wouldn't be placed in the same situation once again. He didn't want to be taken off guard and under their mercy.

He fulfilled his promise—the Lunirich Gods failed once again.

Kaiser and his Blood Moon were conquered, and now Meloriana and the Honey Moon joined.

Other than that, with his level nearing the 100 mark—he is probably going to gain the fourth.

<Notice: Obtained Honeyed Claws moon ability and Nectar Blood passive!>

...

<Honeyed Claws>

Rank: Legendary (Tenth-rank)

Mastery: Low

Description: The user's claws will be elongated with a golden aura resembling honey, which, when striking an opponent, leaves behind a golden goo that could melt through armor—and induce a paralyzing effect. More successful strikes would slow the opponent as though their muscles are 'stuck' by a magical adhesive.

<Nectar Blood>

Rank: Origin (Eleventh-rank)

Mastery: Low

Description: The user's blood becomes like liquid gold during the night granting the user—a unique healing ability. If the user's blood spills on an ally—it can rapidly heal and strengthen them, and induce spiritual pain to the enemy. It also heals mental fatigue—and restores lost vitality, ensuring the user stays at peak condition throughout the night.

...

Rex was ecstatic when he saw these two abilities that he gained.

He was especially excited with the Nectar Blood passive skill, it was exactly what he needed.

Heal mental fatigue and vitality? I could basically train without stopping with that.

Since he could be fatigued due to his intense training—this skill would allow him to exert his all during the day—and recharge during the night while still training. It was akin to an ability, that allowed a Human to have no sleep and kept their focus.

Not to mention, the Honeyed Claws moon ability is also welcomed with open arms.

Having not a lot of moon abilities, an additional one would always be accepted.

Especially when this one was a fighting-based ability.

But even though the abilities, gained from having the Honey Moon King Mark are good, there is still one more thing that Rex was excited about. He waited for a second until another panel was opened.

<Sudden Quest completed!>

<Congratulaltions the user has obtained 2x Instant level tickets, Source of Divinity, and Royal Black Cloak!>

<Level up!>

<Level up!>

Out of the three items he received, he was really curious about the last one.

Unable to contain his curiosity, Rex took out the Royal Black Cloak—to see what it would look like. He knew from the name alone that this cloak was made for those who possess the Royal Black Prince bloodline.

As soon as he summoned the cloak, he felt a weight pulling his arm down.

He looked at his hand and found the cloak was hung over his hand.

It's woven from obsidian-black, shimmering fabric that casts a shadowy glow as it moves.

Length-wise, it reached the floor with its edges, tapering into claw-like points, giving it a real fierce and regal silhouette. A thick, white fur-lined collar crowns the shoulders, adding a light contrast to the black fabric.

Polished black epaulets, resembling sleek wolf fangs, rest on the shoulders with a hood.

Rex could feel that this was no ordinary item based on its appearance alone.

Instinctively, he put on the cloak, fluttering its elegance to his back.

Upon feeling its weight resting on his shoulders, Rex could feel that it matched him.

It was as if the cloak was tailor-made, especially for him.

Not to mention, the cloak shimmered with a faint glow as if acknowledging Rex's bloodline.

Rex fastened at the chest with an obsidian clasp and moved his body a bit.

He was feeling the range of motion and if there were any flaws but there weren't any.

Soon, three silver moon pendants appeared underneath the fur-lined collar.

Each emanated its own kingly energy shade in crimson, black, and lemon.

Obviously, the cloak was responding to the King Marks he currently possessed.

Perfect, it absolutely fits me. Let's see what it does.

...

<Royal Black Cloak>

Equipment Rank: Origin (Eleventh-rank)

Durability: ∞/∞ (Self-heal)

Rune Slots: 0/14 (Max: 3)

Equipment Ego: Rightful Ruler of Werewolves (3 King Marks to be activated)

Description: An ancient artifact reserved for the Royal Black Prince, crafted, from the hide of an eleventh-rank Emperor Moon Wolf—and forged with the willing sacrifice of fifty thousand Werewolf souls and blood, and bathed in under ten thousand full moon phenomena. It was a symbol of Werewolf power, and could only be equipped by the Royal Black Prince.

Bonus stats:

-> +600,000 Endurance

-> +100,000 Agility

-> +100,000 Strength

Abilities:

-> Reactive Power: A power from the Equipment's Ego—the Rightful Ruler of Werrewovles. It allows the siphoning of kingly energies possessed by the Royal Black Prince into the cloak to create adverse effects that vary depending on the source of kingly energy.

-> Royal Might: Allow the wearer to shift the density of the cloak at will—become as light as air or as heavy as mountains to boost either speed or defense.

Active Boost:

-> Blood Moon Pendant: Increase damage output with more kills—would be reset each day.

-> Banished Dark Moon Pendant: Summon a banished clone with fully separated senses.

-> Honey Moon Pendant: Bounce equivalent energy-based attacks back at a minute interval.

...

Rex was absolutely surprised to see the description, stretched far, this was the longest—and also strongest equipment that he had ever seen or had. Maybe the Golden Slayer could be of match but this is still incredible.

He expected the Royal Black Cloak to be valuable—but not this valuable.

It is an eleventh-rank equipment with infinite durability and 14 rune slots.

More importantly—the bonus stat it provided was incredible, and yet that was not—the best part, as the abilities it provided were also top-notch. His defense is definitely increased with the Royal Might ability.

Not to mention the active boosts provided by the Reactive Power ability.

Blood moon boost gave him more firepower, Banished Dark moon boost gave him utility, and the Honey moon increased his defense. It was a jack of all trade equipment giving him every single bit of everything.

Just one look is enough for Rex to recognize this as his strongest equipment.

I bet the boosts would get stronger the higher the ascension of my King Marks becomes.

<Affirmative, that is correct>

Other than that, the Divinity Source was an item to increase his divinity.

A pretty sweet one too that he happily accepted.

Just as he finished checking what he obtained, Rex raised his gaze.

He saw Evelyn, Adhara, Linthia, and also Dindora—looking at him in silence, confusion was clear in their eyes. Rex was so absorbed by the System, and the rewards he obtained, that he forgot the others still didn't know what he did.

Sweeping his gaze at them, he smiled awkwardly.

It was only then did Adhara spoke up.

"What was that about?" And what happened to Liliya?"

"Right, I'll explain..."

Rex decided to explain to them what he did without putting on any filter.

He took the gamble to extort a Goddess and it paid off.

Alas, he could've told the others before doing it but he didn't see any need to tell them.

Considering the Lunirich Gods were weakened, this was nothing but a simple trip.

"I can't tell you what to do but can you please tell us first?" Adhara pleaded.

Upon hearing this, Rex sighed, "I'm afraid that you would try to dissuade me from doing this. I'm extorting a Goddess, after all, and it could be dangerous. It was also why I didn't tell you, the full plan of the pack duel"

"I've passed that already, I know you wouldn't take overwhelming risks," Adhara sighed.

This was not the first time.

She has already given up and is used to Rex doing crazy stuff to get stronger.

But then again, that behavior was what brought Rex to this moment.

It wasn't an entirely bad thing, high risk will yield high reward.

Adhara then waved her hand and headed back down, she wanted to apologize to the guards for her behavior earlier. It was the same with Linthia and Dindora, both of them brought Liliya with them and excused themselves.

Only Evelyn remained behind.

Smiling at her, Rex flexed his muscle, "See? I'm getting stronger. Nothing will happen to me"

"Not even the calamity would be able to take me down" He added.

Upon hearing this, Evelyn only nodded and put on a sweet smile.

Just then, however, the castle suddenly rumbled.

Rex frowned when he felt this—and looked up to the tower, seeing that the energy absorbed by the castle was going rampant. It swirled and coalesced at the tip of the castle's height—a sight that made him frown.

Seeing this, Evelyn also frowned.

"What's happening? Is the castle's suction force malfunctioning?"

"Most likely... the clash with the world's energy earlier must've broken something"

"Did you think this through?"

"Apparently not, I didn't know the castle would break"

As soon as he said that, the energy trapped within the castle surged with violent intensity.

Both Rex and Evelyn looked up and saw the power that fueled the barrier of the entire city concentrated into a single point, then erupted into a big shockwave. It expanded outward, rippling across the forest and land, stretching for miles in every direction.

Though the wave wasn't destructive, it felt like a powerful gust of wind.

It tore through the terrain, unsettling everything in its path.

Upon that happening—the dome barrier protecting the city—and also the Circling Sentinel flickered before vanishing entirely, the city's defenses crumbled. Moreover, the power that powered the city got snuffed out in the aftermath of the explosion.

Anything that required electricity died out.

Dargena City was plunged into darkness, its energy supply extinguished in an instant.

Rex's eyes widened in shock.

Panic shot through him like a lightning bolt as this didn't cross his mind.

It was never part of his plan.

He hadn't anticipated the castle's malfunction from the clash with the world's energy.

System, the castle would heal by itself, right?

<Yes!>

<Calculating the repairing time...>

<Success!>

<Time until fully repaired: 13 minutes>

Upon reading this, Rex quickly activates his power once more, preparing to leap skyward.

Before he could leap, Evelyn grabbed his hand.

"I'll notify Dindora and Linthia to ready our forces"

"Do that, I'll assess the situation"

Rex sprang into the air, stepping on the red force as his cloak fluttered behind him.

Stoppin when he reached the appropriate height, he scanned the horizon.

He knew that the Chrono Hollow was trapping Dargena City and hiding it from the world but the shockwave of energy would undoubtedly pass it with no problem, and Rex feared that it might attract unwanted attention.

As expected, his fear came to reality.

His heart sank as stat windows began to blink into existence in the distance.

It came from all directions.

Dormant mutated animals, once silent and hidden, had sensed the pulse of power.

Rex could see that the skies ahead filled with winged beasts and the earth trembled as land-bound creatures began converging—on the castle, drawn by the energy, they most definitely believed they could devour.

Knowing that a mutated animal tide was coming, he signaled Evelyn to get ready.

From the looks of it, they would be in a thirteen minutes of ferocious battle.

Pointing his hand down, he called back Amanir who was still meditating.

Swoosh!

Amanir got back into his body, amplifying Rex's lunar mana with his spirit energy.

He scrolled through the System shop and bought a spell for himself.

<Purchased Master Clones Ultimate Spell for 20,000 gold!>

Rex immediately learned the Master Clones spell before his body shimmered, as he created multiple clones of himself, each leaping to life around him, inheriting his intelligence stat. As soon as the clones appeared, they were split across the city walls.

It would listen to Linthia's and Dindora's commands as they protected the city walls.

On the other hand, Rex himself remained in the sky, bracing for the oncoming storm.

Adhara quickly came and joined him above with her gladiator form activated.

"Any tenth-rank mutated animals?"

"No, I don't see one. No tenth-rank would be attracted by that level of energy I hope"

Upon hearing this, Adhara nodded, her mana and spirit energy flared in excitement.

"Good, then this should be a good battle to stretch. I have a couple of things to try out"

"Alright, I'll let you take on the first wave then"

"Copy that, keep your eyes open, and watch me blaze through them..."
