Chapter 229: Confronting the Demon and Vampire

'Did he know?!', Rex thought in horror,

The Green Messenger knows about him being an Awakened, and this might result in making the Green Messenger suspicious of him.

But Rex never really met with the Green Messenger for a while,

They only talk through letters from the crow, and hardly ever meet with each other.

'Is he following me? But Kyran should've sensed him if he decided to follow me', Rex thought with a frown, the wound on his stomach still hurting him like crazy.

While he's indulging in his thoughts, the Green Messenger looks at him with a pistol in his hand.

The black pistol emits a faint smoke from its barrel because of the shot, and the carvings on the side glow white for some reason.

It makes the carvings almost look like a rune, but it's not.

The Green Messenger walks slowly towards Rex, he then stops in front of Rex who is kneeling on one knee and points the pistol onto his head.

"What is the meaning of this?", Rex asks while trying to remain calm.

He already thought it through and it's impossible for the Green Messenger to know that he's a Supernatural, it's just doesn't make sense.

The Green Messenger's mask's eyes glow green, and the aura he emitted is threatening.

"Are you sent here by the UWO?", he asks coldly.

Hearing this, Rex widen his eyes before he replied confidently, "No I'm not, I'm just asking what any human who cares for their race would"

Tension filled the lab as they both stares at each other.

Rex puts his hand on top of the wounds on his stomach to cover it from the Green Messenger's vision, the subtle steam that came out of the wounds might just put his life away.

Based on what the Green Messenger asks, it is clear that Rex worries about nothing because the Green Messenger is suspicious of him being a spy sent by the UWO.

But he's not,

"Besides during the Swear of Loyalty and the Secret Promise, you told me that you'll know if I break those oaths", Rex added without any fear.

Looking at this, the Green Messenger chuckles, "I know"

Hearing his chuckles, Rex sigh a sigh of relief knowing that he's off the hook.

"Are you feeling dizzy? Is there a ringing sound in your head?", the Green Messenger asks.

Rex nodded his head before the Green Messenger's body trembles, "Ha! That means I just completed our new gun, every SCO member will be given one after it's massed produced"

"It's also thanks to you, the Northern Black Heads tears you gave me just amplified the bullet's power by almost 2x and it gave that dizzy effect", he added.

This news surprised Rex, he didn't expect that the Green Messenger was capable of making such a weapon that manage to hurt him.

"Here", the Green Messenger said while tossing the black pistol and a pack of bullets.

Rex caught the pistol and the bullets in confusion, but the Green Messenger then added, "That's for you, you'll be the first one to get that"

After saying that, Rex got dismissed from the lab.

But just before he left, "You're fine right? that bullet is very strong but I know you have regenerative ability so you should be fine"

Heang this, Rex smiles lightly, "Of course, It's just a gunshot"

The Green Messenger glance at the wound on Rex's stomach, Rex covers it with his hand before finally, the Green Messenger lets him go.

While he went back to the lobby, Rex still has the black pistol in his suit's pocket.

He doesn't want to risk putting the gun in his inventory yet, the building has CCTVs so it will be bad if he is caught doing that.

Upon walking outside of the office, Rex takes out his phone.

He dialed a number before his phone starts ringing, then a woman on the other side answered, "Hello? Rex? Why are you calling me?"

"Linda, Are you busy right now?", Rex asks.

Linda then replied playfully, "If you're going to ask for information then I think I deserve to be treated by you, don't you think so?"

"Oh, so that's what it takes to bribe you? Since when did you become my fangirl anyway", Rex replied with a slight chuckle, it caught him off guard that Linda read through him easily.

She then said, "Are you kidding? A date with The Rex Silverstar? I think I can brag about that all over the university"

"Fine, Where's Vargas right now? Is he back yet or is he still in the UWO headquarters?", Rex asks.

Now that he already got the approval from the Green Messenger, then now he needs to convince Vargas to agree with this too.

By him, Rex means Adhara.

Then, the sound of paper can be heard from the other side before Linda answered, "He's still in the headquarter, should I tell him you're going to meet him or not?"

"You should tell him, I'll be there to talk about something", Rex answered.

But before he can hang up, Linda stopped him and said, "The time and place pretty boy"

Hearing this, Rex shakes his head because of her remarks.

He never thought that he will be called pretty boy by someone, "Do you know a lot about the 25 Golden Crests?"

"I know about everything, I'm Linda", she answered sweetly.

Rex rolled his eyes before he said, "Fine, prepare for a nice green dress because I'm taking you to a banquet held by the 25 Golden Crest"

After saying that, Rex hung up and meet up with the others in the car.

"Alright, I got the SCO's side with me and now it is up to you Adhara", Rex said while looking at her, this makes her nervous.

Hearing this, Edward then said, "We're not gonna go past the fact that you're an SCO member"

Rex positioned his seat comfortably before he said, "What about it?"

"Are you serious? The SCO is a rebel organization with the sole purpose of overthrowing UWO's authority, you can't be a member of them", Edward said in concern.

Just from how he talks about the SCO, it is clear that their reputation is bad.

Rex then said calmly, "No they're not, the SCO's priority is always the Supernatural"

"You're an Awakened, they won't possibly take you in as a member if-", Edward said but then he stopped, he widened his eyes in shock while looking at Rex.

He then shouted, "You're their spy!!"

"Calm down, I'm not their spy while there is an Awakened acting as their spy but the important thing is that we need to make them banded together to fight the Supernatural", Rex said reassuringly.

Hearing this, Edward sigh before he starts the car.

But before he stepped on the gas, Edward asks, "When you use my car, are you doing a mission for the SCO?"

"Yep", Rex replied nonchalantly.

Edward on the other hand look at Rex in disbelief, he shakes his head and steps on the gas while saying, "God damn it, they're gonna take my car because of you"

Vroom!

Vampire Kingdom, Supernatural Territory.

"NEZERA!! SARUTH!! COME OUT HERE RIGHT NOW!!"

A loud powerful roar can be heard from outside of the castle, all of the Vampires citizens in the kingdom are already came out and seen the problem that came in front of their doors.

Legions of Supernatural are already on their doorstep, they all are emitting horrifying aura.

Four armies to be exact are present in front of the Vampire Kingdom's doorsteps, all of them are very hostile judging from their threatening aura.

Armies of all kinds of undead lined up neatly, they brings a big black flag and they all wears black armor like a battalion of death.

On their right is an army with formless black bodies, their form alters like a shadow almost exactly like a shadow army but the difference is that they're alive and threatening.

An Army of Werewolves and Succubus follow right after,

The glowing eyes and the black furs of the Werewolves, added with the ashy grey skin of the Succubus and their fiery wings create the perfect legions that scream death.

If any humans were here, they will pee their pants just by encountering these legions.

From the looks of the Legions that came to the Vampire's territory, they consist of Shapeshifters, Werewolves, Undead, and the Succubus.

All of them can be seen as very hostile, it seems they're ready for war.

Each of the Supernatural is led by a powerful figure, from the looks of it the Shapeshifters is led by King Oddity, the Undead led by King Lax'rad, the Succubus led by a woman that emits a powerful aura, but the Werewolves are led by Bertolf.

The news that the Great Barricade has been breached got to them as quick as a hurricane wind.

It's not a small matter, breaching the Great Barricade is a breakthrough for the Supernatural and they're all angry to be left out of it.

Not long after the roar, two figures came out of the castle.

These two figures are Queen Nezera and King Saruth who both have their heads held up high.

It makes the two of them look like they're looking down on the legions, and this makes the legions become every angrier.

The two of them jumped outside of the kingdom's wall and confront the legions, but there is no worry on their faces as they stands pridefully in front of them.

"Friends! How wonderful to see you gather here so early", Nezera said softly.

Then, King Saruth also added with a smirk, "We're just celebrating our victory, why don't you all come inside and enjoy the party"

Hearing this, the other Supernatural faces' darkened.

"You mean your victory? You didn't tell us anything about what you're planning", Lax'rad shouted in anger, the orb on top of his staff glows with sinister energy as bloodlust can be seen through his hollow eyes.

But King Saruth's smirk went wider, "What do you mean? The Supernaturals are banded together, so our win is also your win"

"Cut the bullshit Saruth, you devised a plan to attack the humans without telling us, then we find out that you two have been colluding behind our back and then you guys hid the fact that the demons manage to awaken the blue demons", King Lax'rad said sharply.

All of his words exposed Saruth and Nezera, but both of them doesn't seem to mind it.

Nezera then said, "What do you mean by hiding? It's just the awakening of the world has already started and we manage to breakthrough and infiltrate the humans"

"The Awakening still hasn't started yet, either you both come clean now or we will consider this a treachery to the alliance", Bertolf added threateningly.

Hearing these threats, Saruth then smiles.

The tension kept rising as they wait for Saruth's answer, he then finally said, "Fine let's chat inside, we will explain to all of you in detail"

After saying that, the leaders of the legions look at each other before they went inside.

"What are we going to do with this thing?", a woman with emerald eyes asks.

Sebrof is standing beside her while looking at a glowing blue creature caged inside a facility, his eyes transfixed on the creature with a frown.

The creature is a blue ape that they saw in Lupis City.

Somehow, Sebrof and the woman manage to capture the ape and put it in a facility.

Lupis City should be saved from the demons if Sebrof and the woman are here, just like the other two Awakened that saved Benrith City that Rex met.

But from the look of both of them, they didn't manage to save the city and capture the big ape without a substantial cost.

Sebrof can clearly be seen hurting, his body is beaten up and so does the woman.

Although they're hurting, the wounds seem to not be crucial enough as they stand in front of the facility while looking at the big ape trying to escape.

"It's a demon for sure but an ape demon? that's just not right", the woman said with a frown.

Sebrof kept silent while looking at the big ape, the frown on his face becomes harder and harder when suddenly,

"Sir, small riots emerge all over but it is not major enough. But they will eventually know, we can't keep the information for long", a man said after entering the room.

Hearing this, the woman glances at Sebrof with a questioning gaze.

"What should we do?", the woman asks.

Sebrof takes a deep breath feeling his head hurting before he mumbles, "I don't know"
