Going through the damped forest passing the mutated animals and cursed creatures that he met, Rex tries to find any indication of the Dark Elves that should've been here to keep a lookout for any anomalies and also threats that mind comes to the castle.
Silverstar Pack and the Dark Elves have already created an alliance.
King Jorik also agreed that this alliance favors his race more and decided that he would station some Dark Elves in the Humming Damned Forest, the Dark Elves are proficient in dealing with cursed creatures and this offer is perfect for them.
But after going around the Humming Damned Forest for the second time, Rex didn't find them.
Not one glimpse of the Dark Elves can be seen which is weird, the Dark Elves that came with Fylson yesterday should've been the ones stationed here. Rex can feel it clearly last night, he didn't mind them for a moment and suddenly they were all gone.
'Where did they go? I doubt they go back, they must be attacked by something'
Rex finds that using his senses is no use, the cursed energy inside the Humming Damned Forest is too thick even for his senses. Although he's quite sure a cursed creature is responsible for this, he can't single out the anomaly inside this forest.
'System, can you scan the surroundings? Search for high-epiphany curses'
Although the Dark Elves are not that strong, around the fourth-rank to the sixth-rank realm, the fact that their bodies were nowhere to be found shows that the perpetrator hides their bodies well to the point of bypassing a Werewolf's senses.
It's really troubling, Rex feels like he's being targeted.
Just as Rex reads the notification from the system, a blue holographic map with four red dots in it appears in his vision, showing the location of each section that the system found. Without much thought, Rex immediately went to check each of them.
Out of the four sections, he visited three and finds them to be powerful cursed creatures.
Rex finds that one of the cursed creatures was something called the Duchess of Tears empowered by the curse of beauty, she was surrounded by many cursed creatures as well as mutated animals due to her curse. Even the effect of seeing the Duchess of Tears was so powerful that Rex is only able to resist due to the Eternal Curse inside of him.
Another cursed creature he met was the notorious Forsaken Man.
Back when he was still learning at Ochyra University, he remembered the teacher telling him about the Forsaken Man and that if he meets it he should run away. Now that he looked at it in person, the Forsaken man is even scarier.
Contrary to meeting with the Duchess of Tears, Rex was influenced by the Forsaken Man.
Empowered by the Curse of Loneliness, the Forsaken Man ignites the feeling of committing suicide inside of anyone that gets too close. Rex finds this thing hiding in a secluded cave, it wears a white robe that wraps and covers its entire body.
Its skin is light red, and its face looks eerie, especially its hollow eyes and wide mouth.
Just from seeing the Forsaken Man alone Rex knows that this Cursed of Loneliness is almost as strong as the Eternal Curse, and that is scary in its own right. The others would die if they get near here, and Rex knows that.
Due to that he stopped for a second to gauge the effective range and marked it.
Rex even tries to get very close to the Forsaken Man to test the water, but he finds that the Forsaken Man only glanced at him before turning its head away again. From that, he knows that if it's left alone, it will probably stay there until the end of time.
At the very least, despite having a very powerful curse, Forsaken Man seems to be dormant.
'Now for the last one...'
Looking at the holographic blue map, there was only one red spot left that he needed to clear.
Nodding to himself he disappeared from beside the Forsaken Man and headed to the last red spot, it was south of the castle. Upon reaching there, Rex landed in the midst of the forest and finds the same scenery as the other parts of the forest.
But it's darker here, the sunlight almost got completely blocked by the trees' canopies.
Rex followed the map before he finds himself standing in front of a gigantic tree that is way taller, thicker, and bigger than the other trees inside the Humming Damned Forest. This one in particular has a different air than the rest, the branches and trunk seem to hide a million stories.
Its trunk bends like a snake and mosses wander down mixing its lush green with the old tree.
From its appearance alone this tree should be way older than the other trees, and the red spot indicates that this old tree is the last spot. Rex frowned for a moment as he sensed nothing within the old tree.
With his cursed sense, he should be able to tell if there's a cursed creature living in this tree.
Despite his ability to sense cursed creatures, he doesn't feel anything from the tree. Rex doubted for a second, but he decided to check the old tree anyway lest there was a cursed creature that managed to bypass his senses.
A moment later, he stands once again in front of the old tree with a frown on his face.
'I can't find anything, but the system couldn't be wrong' Rex thought.
Rex has already circled the gigantic old tree and even climbed the tree to check the holes it has, he looked at every corner and hole thoroughly but finds nothing. It's just a tree with nothing living in or outside of it.
But he doesn't want to be hasty, there must be some places that he missed.
Just when he was about to circle the tree a couple of times to check if there was any spot that he missed, his eyes suddenly landed on a gap underneath the gigantic tree. There are two huge stones clamped together underneath the gigantic tree, and he saw a gap in the corner.
Upon seeing this Rex frowned before he went closer to the gap between the two stones.
Since the inside of the gap is very dark and his eyes can't see through it, Rex decided to scan with the system to find if there are any stats that would appear which indicate something inside this weird gap that he finds.
After waiting for a moment, the system doesn't find anything inside the gap.
Rex decided to get inside but his body stopped when he finds a mark etched on the stone near the gap, he looks at the mark before he touch the mark and asked the system, 'Can you scan what this mark is? I want to know'
