Chapter 612 Your Demise Has Arrived!

Brigitta told both of them what she thought about the situation outside.

Out of her career as an Awakened that has experienced many kinds of fights, she learned that the Supernaturals rarely retreated if not for knowing that they will lose too much of their forces and the instance of them doing that can be counted on one hand.

Unlike humans, the Supernaturals have always been involved in a battle to the death.

Negotiations or parley was always present since the dawn of modern human times, it will prevent them from having to lose too much and avoid a bloodied war. But for Supernaturals, their fight has always been the survival of their race.

Due to that, Supernaturals have always been loyal and listened to their leaders without a question.

Seeing that the entire Supernaturals that are keeping a lookout of the Ruined Vampire Stronghold retreat in an orderly manner, then the leaders must tell them that. In addition to that, the weird barrier is already enough reason that they are plotting something.

Although there's a chance that they're preparing to reclaim the stronghold, Brigitta doubts that.

With the catastrophic fight that she even felt all the way from the Great Barricade, it's clear that the Supernaturals have already sensed it too, and wanted to do something. If they wanted to attack humanity then they could've gone through the Demon Stronghold.

But they aren't going there which means they're waiting for Rex due to some unknown reasons.

Gazing at the miles-wide invisible barrier that becomes visible for a brief moment due to the missiles exploding, Adhara frowned as there was no doubt that the Supernaturals are onto something. It's dangerous to go out blindly especially knowing that the possibility of a trap is very high.

On the other side, Flunra squinted his eyes while exerting his senses beyond the usual limit.

Looking at the visible ripples created by the exploding missiles on the invisible barrier, Flunra can vaguely notice some clue about the perpetrator of this weird barrier, "I don't think the barrier is only made by one energy, there are at least two casters that combined their power together to create this. Both of them are very strong, possibly two Kings"

"Two Kings? Then how can we go through them?", Adhara asks in concern, they can't take that on.

Since it was sunny with the sun above their heads, Flunra can't gather much moonlight energy through his ancient runes. But he still has one ancient rune that is perfect for this moment, it also doesn't need much moonlight energy.

Cutting his palm and staining the tip of his index fingernail with blood, he created an ancient rune.

While this is all happening Brigitta is watching from the side with her eyes fixated on Adhara who is now in her white Werewolf form, she has never seen a Werewolf like Adhara. More than that, she also never saw an actual human turning into a Supernatural.

Back during the Demonic Cities, the human-turned-demon is already in its demon form.

Looking exactly at the process of Adhara turning into her Werewolf form is still quite a shock for Brigita, but in the next second, the ancient rune Flunra draws started to glow slowly. It takes about ten seconds before enough energy was gathered.

"What are you doing?", Adhara asks curiously, she was a bit fascinated by these ancient runes.

Upon hearing this Flunra kept channeling the rune while he answered, "It's called the Neutral Rune, the very first rune that needed to be learned back in my era. It converts any energy into neutral energy, and upon making contact with the energy it can also turn into that said energy"

Although Adhara was still confused about it, Flunra only added, "You'll see in a bit..."

Just as enough moonlight energy converted into neutral energy, Flunra punch the rune that is carved in the space in front of him before shooting a small beam of grey energy. It travels decently fast, heading to the invisible barrier.

Swoosh!

The three of them watches the beam fly away before it shattered upon hitting the barrier.

Despite happening for a very brief moment Adhara caught the neutral energy splashes and turns into red and black for a few seconds, she frowned and recognize the red energy, "One is Blood Energy, but I don't know what the other one is"

"Death energy, the other one is death energy used by the Undead", Flunra replied with a frown.

From that exchange alone they now know that the caster of the weird barrier is the Vampire and the Undead, both are an expert in using spells compared to the other races that lean more toward physical power like the Shapeshifters and Werewolves.

Upon doing that, Flunra and Adhara saw many figures come out of the weird barrier.

Since they now know that the caster of the barrier is the Vampire and the Undead, they frown once again seeing the Supernatural that came out of the barrier was not Vampires or Undead. In fact, none of them are Vampires or Undead.

What came out of the weird barrier were Werewolves, Demons, and Succubuses.

These Supernaturals came out of the weird barrier and just stood a step away from the weird barrier with a gap of about 10 feet from each other, and these Supernaturals spans miles wide. One Supernatural can be seen every 10 feet.

Even with them trying to decipher what they were doing, they really can't think of anything.

But there's a huge chance that these Supernaturals are aiming at Rex for some reason, there's no other explanation aside from that. It's too much of a coincidence for the Supernaturals to do this when Rex was about to leave humanity's territory.

"Let me check just if there's any path to avoid them", Flunra said before he dashed away.

Upon seeing Flunra dashing away, spriting through the wall of the Great Barricade, Rex gave his mother's corpse to Gistella before he jumped onto the wall. It took him one powerful leap to reach the top of the Great Barricade walls which is a feat of its own.

Landing on the wall, Rex then glanced at Adhara and asks, "What's going on?"

Knowing that they need to make a plan if they are going to leave humanity's territory and survive, Adhara decided to explain everything to Rex starting from what Brigitta said earlier and the tests done by Flunra that concludes the Vampire and the Undead are the ones creating this weird barrier.

Rex looks to the front and saw Supernaturals lining up near the weird barrier acting as a lookout.

But while he was looking at these Supernaturals that are clad in battle armor, anticipating a fight, the Whiro Necklace of Fear reacted as he saw a bleak aura coming out of every single Supernatural that lined up neatly.

"They're scared of something...", Rex mutters lightly which piqued Adhara's attention.

Since most of the Supernaturals that are lined up are wearing battle helmets, she can't see what kind of expression these Supernaturals are wearing. Even with her ability to see an emotional aura, these Supernaturals are emitting a grey aura which means uncertain.

It's hard for her to decipher that the grey aura means that they're fearful.

Upon hearing this Adhara frowned and asks, "What are they scared of? Are they scared of you?"

"No, I don't think so. But there was no doubt that they were scared of something, I can see it clearly", Rex replied while trying to look around, searching for their source of fear to no avail. Flunra didn't take long to come back, checking the weird barrier.

Looking at Rex who is already on the wall, he then said, "I don't think we can avoid them"

"If we want to leave humanity's territory and dwell inside the Supernatural territory, we need to go through them. I don't see any other way except to fight, but there's a chance that the Kings are beyond that weird barrier waiting for you", he added, sharing his side of the situation.

Rex's expression darkens as the Supernaturals are slowly getting on his nerves.

With his parents hasn't buried yet he can't stay here for long and create a plan to go through this problem, but going in blindly would've been too dangerous even for him since his body is tolled and his Banished Dark Moon King Mark is deactivated.

From all the way the journey to here, he was trying to talk with the Countess but got no reply.

Even when he was trying to ask the Kaiser about this, there was no answer. It's like they purposefully left him in the dark and expect him to deal with it himself, but then again he can't argue with them since they are the ones giving him power.

Now that he looks back at the Supernaturals once again, he realized they are very bold.

Although they were clearly setting up a trap in order to aim for him, they don't even try to hide the fact that the weird barrier is a trap set for him. It's like they knew that Rex would need to leave humanity's territory without a doubt.

But then out of nowhere, a notification from the system appeared.

<Sudden Quest!>

<Survive the Inevitable Trap!>

The user wanted to leave humanity's territory ever since the user's parents were killed by other Awakened, but the user meets an obstacle that prevents the user to leave humanity's territory once and for all. Survive and go through the trap set by the Supernaturals!

Quest Reward: 300,000,000,000 Exp, 1,000,000 Gold, King of Kings Passive Skill.

Upon reading this notification from the system, Rex's eyes were fixated on the word 'Inevitable' which implies that whatever he does, he would not be able to escape the trap set by the Supernaturals.

Knowing that he needs a plan, Rex decided to gather more information.

With nothing but a chant he creates an illusion of himself made of lunar light, he then commanded the illusion to at the very least go through the weird barrier and check inside. The four of them including Brigitta watch the illusion dash straight to the barrier quickly.

It didn't take long for it to reach the weird barrier.

Many Supernaturals try to stop the illusion as they are engaged in a fight, but the illusion proves to be stronger and more agile as it managed to slip past them and went inside the weird barrier with one powerful dash.

Crash!

But instantly after that, the illusion shattered and was sent back to Rex.

Rex then frowns upon receiving the information he got from the illusion, 'How could there be three of them inside? It seems they are trying to kill me very much, but why are they doing this? I just injured two ninth-rank realms Awakened, shouldn't they thank me for that?'

Out of everything, he never expected that there are three ninth-rank Supernatural inside.

Although the illusion only got inside briefly he can feel three ninth-rank Supernatural, one from the Demon race, one is King Baralt, and the last one from the Succubus race. It was surprising that three of them gathered here just to wait for him.

From the top of his head, he can't find any reason why they're this desperate in trying to kill him.

'Just what are they afraid of? or are they just trying to pay me back for what I did to the Vampire Stronghold?', many questions popped inside his head that he didn't have the answer to, and this made Rex silent on his spot.

The others are waiting for his instruction patiently, Adhara and Flunra also don't have an answer.

Rex went silent for a couple of minutes before he glanced at Brigitta at the side, his eyes shows resoluteness after that brief ponder, "Three ninth-rank realms Supernatural are gathered here for me, Demon, Succubus, and Werewolf Kings are here. My advice for you is to attack the Demon Stronghold right now"

Even though it sounded like he still cares for humanity, he wasn't.

Since there is no other choice except to fight his way through this trap set by the Supernatural, Rex needed somekind of distraction so the Supernaturals are not going to be focusing too much on him which will increase his winning probability.

"What are you going to do?", Brigitta asked, surprised by the sudden advice.

Looking at the Supernaturals and the weird barrier at the far distance, Rex summoned his Amuerus Katana in response to the question, "I'm going to carve a path through them of course, if they wanted to fight then I'll give them hell"

But just as he said that Rex's eyes widened when he feels something wrapping around his ankle.

Upon looking down to his right ankle, Rex saw a blue flaming chain wrapping around his ankle. Training his eyes back to the front, he saw a black demon coming out of the weird barrier with the blue chains in its hands.

Not only that, but the energy coming from that black demon is definitely in the ninth-rank realm.

Everyone paused for a second realizing that there was a blue flaming chain wrapping around Rex's ankle, but in the next second the black demon roared from quite a distance away while pulling the blue flaming chain, "Royal Black Werewolf! Your demise has arrived!"

"No! Rex!", Adhara shouted when she saw Rex get pulled off of the Great Barricade's wall.
