Chapter 26 Primeval Blessing Stone
Rex stands up in surprise,
He didn't expect that the system can make others turn into a werewolf just like him.
Rex decided to ask the system about the matter, 'System, can you explain the pack section', he asks with a hint of anticipation.
<Pack Section>
<The user has unlocked the pack section after achieving level 10, the user can turn two people into a Werewolf but they will only become a half-blood. They will then become your pack members while the user will become the Alpha, by becoming an Alpha the user will get many benefits but also responsibilities to fulfill>
After reading this, Rex was deep in thought.
'If it brings me many benefits, I need to make one ASAP. There are a couple of people that came to mind but I don't know if they even want to become like me', Rex thought as he glances at Adhara who is sleeping beside him.
He shakes his head and decided to ask Adhara later, now he shall see the profit he gains from the quests.
Rex attributed the six stats that he got from leveling up to his mental stats just to be safe, he then opens his inventory and saw one item that is written in red color.
<Primeval Blessing Stone>
<Blessing Stone that is made in ancient times, The stone is a rank 10 item that can only be found in legends. The Blessing Stone will give the user resistance to the user's weakness>
Rex was delighted after reading this, 'A RANK 10!! That's practically a myth! and here I am possessing one'
Items ranking is just like an Awakened ranking, they consist of nine rankings. One is the lowest while nine is the highest, a rank ten-item is literally godlike which no one has ever heard of, they basically non-existent. But that non-existent item is right here, right on Rex's palm.
Rex summons the Blessing Stone from the inventory, immediately a bright rainbow color glows from the stone bringing a nice and warm light. He looks at the stone more carefully, he saw a cluster of different colors there are two little orbs inside it with different runes marked on them, the orb is circling beautifully inside the stone and it attracted Rex as if it's asking him to get closer to it.
After stuffing his curiosity about rank ten-item, Rex then asked the system, 'How do I use this stone?'
Without even bothering to answer Rex's question, a notification appeared.
<Absorbing Primeval Blessing Stone>
Just right after the notification appears, the colorful light engulfs him entirely. The process is not hurt, rather it makes Rex's body relaxed. The light seems to envelop each and every nook of Rex's body, then it goes inside Rex's body after a slight buzz.
After five minutes or so, the light is starting to fade until Rex's body can be seen again.
Rex looks at his body to spot the changes but he feels nothing, before he can ask the system, notifications appeared in front of him.
<Congratulations for absorbing Primeval Blessing Stone!>
<Gain 25% Resistance against silver>
<Gain 10% Resistance against White Rye>
<Gain 30% Resistance against White Omicron>
Seeing the notifications, Rex can't help to ask the system, 'I know about the silver thing but what is a White Rye and Omicron', he asks.
<White Rye>
<A flower that is blessed by holy magic that can only be produced naturally by mother nature, The flower is rare and can only be produced once in tens of years. It possessed purifying abilities and is deadly towards some Supernaturals, especially for Werewolf, The flower can produce Water Rye that can instantly purify anything it touches>
Rex was still confused, he then asks the system, 'In simpler terms?'
<You will instantly turn to ash upon touching Water Rye>
Rex's hair stands after reading it, He can't believe that an unknown flower has the potential to instantly one-shot him.
Before Rex can even think further, another notification appeared.
<Omicron>
<Omicron is a celestial being that is purely fueled by the anger of Werewolfs, they are a being that is feared and loved by the Werewolfs, Their body is ethereal and sometimes they appear during full-moon. There are two types of Omicron, White and Black. Black Omicron will give a Werewolf immense power that is beyond comprehension while White Omicron will massacre every unlucky Werewolf that crosses its path. In records from ancient times, 23 White Omicrons and 3 Dark Omicrons has appeared>
After reading a long text regarding the White Rye and Omicron, Rex was deep in thought, 'The Omicron is like a lucky box, White means you die, Black means immense power. Based on the system, the Omicrons is a rare phenomenon that may not even appear during my lifetime'
Rex sigh, 'To think that a creature can massacre Werewolfs who's occupying the high rank of supernatural'
Rex shakes his head and puts the matters on the back of his head, he is thankful that he got a percentage of resistance towards his weakness.
Rex stops his train of thought when he notices Adhara is moving in her spot, he then sits back down beside Adhara.
Adhara opens her eyes and saw Rex looking at her from the side, her face blushed in embarrassment.
"Why are you looking at me sleeping? It's embarrassing", She said while her face becomes redder and redder.
Rex chuckles and replied, "Nothing much, Just checking on you"
Just as he said that Rex notices a cut on Adhara's back that is bleeding, he reaches out his hand to see the cut but Adhara quickly slaps his hand away.
"What are you doing?", She asks while her body started to tremble.
Rex knit his brows in confusion, the sudden change in Adhara's expression caught him off guard, "There's a cut on your back, Let me see", Rex reaches out his hand once more.
Adhara seems terrified and screams, "Kyaaa!!", her body trembled uncontrollably.
Rex was shocked, 'Is she scared of me?', sigh well who wouldn't when they saw me like that.
Just as Rex was about to get away from Adhara to give her some space, Adhara holds his hand.
Rex glance at Adhara with a flat expression,
Adhara hangs her head low and said, "Don't misunderstand, It's just....",
While Adhara is struggling to say something, Rex noticed that the cut on her back is not just a simple cut so he forcefully pulls Adhara's gear away revealing her fair back.
But what decorates Adhara's fair back makes Rex gasp in shock, he saw many scars left by bladed objects and even whip scars.
Adhara tears flow down from her eyes, "Why? Is it that bad?", she said with a forceful smile.
Rex felt guilty after seeing her back, He should've known not to force things but somehow the cut on her back makes him worried so he wants to look at it.
Rex raises his eyes to meet Adhara's and asks, "Who did this?"
Adhara lower her head and replied, "My father..."
Hearing Adhara's answer, Rex nodded his head not seem to be surprised while Adhara started to weep in tears.
Rex sits beside Adhara again and gazes in front of him blankly, "Tell me about it, I'll listen to you all night long", he said trying to comfort Adhara.
Adhara pulls her gear to cover her back and said, "It's a long story, My father is a caring and loving father just like others. My life is happy, My father loved my mother and me deeply but suddenly my mother dies because of a raid by the Supernatural. From then on, My father becomes cold, and his hatred for Supernaturals is all he can think of. So he decided to join the army leaving me alone at home, he didn't forget about me and send me letters every month. But just about six months ago, he came back with only one of his hands. He is handicapped and because of that he is no longer needed by the army and was sent home", Adhara is crying even more while telling her story.
She got hiccups so Rex rubs his hand on her back to comfort her,
While he is comforting Adhara, he can hear footsteps coming towards his location.
Rex's hand stop as he said to Adhara, "Wait for a moment"
After saying that Rex turns into a blur vanishing from his spot.
Meanwhile, a group of five guys is walking cautiously, they are about one hundred meters away from Rex's location.
"Brother Mike, We need to find a resting place. It's already midnight, I'm so tired", a bald guy with a lean build said to Mike, who is standing in front of the group.
Mike frown, he looks around and saw an open field where that is ideal for them to not get ambushed, "Wait here, I'm going to scout the front first", he said.
Mike walks forward with extreme caution, their team is targetted all day long so he too is tired.
He walks while touching the wall to help him stay on track when suddenly a flash of shadow blitz in front of him that is too fast for him to see.
BAAM!!!
A fist landed right beside his face making a web-like crack on the wall behind him, His eyes widened and his face is pale in fright.
His legs feel like jelly as he looks at the person in front of him,
Rex looks at him in the eyes with fierce glint, then he said while staring right at Mike's eyes, "Take on more step towards this direction, The next one will be on your head"
Mike nodded his head desperately, he slid down the wall feeling his legs give up before he started crawling away in tears.
Rex's expression returns to normal before he dashes again like a shadow heading back to Adhara.
