It was a weird feeling to know that someone else is aware of the System.

Most of the people around him only knew that he only had his Werewolf side to hide. But in reality, the secret that he kept dear the most is the System that makes everything that he achieved right now possible.

His drive for his goal couldn't be undermined, but the System definitely plays a big role.

Rex stretches his body and decided that he wouldn't need to be assertive in using the System. Even if the Countess knew, she would probably only suspects the surface level of the System inside of him.

Knowing the full extent of what the System is capable of wouldn't be possible for her.

'Then again, if the Countess knew that the System could provide the entire history of the Lunirich Gods with enough Gold, she would probably find it unbelievable' Rex thought with a dry chuckle, even Rex himself doesn't know the full extent of the System's power.

Focusing back on training, Rex decided that he would need to at least achieve two things.

In order to maximize this place to his advantage, he would need to perfectly master the moon abilities in his arsenal. The Brutal Impulse and the new Seize of Twilight that he gained from reaching first ascension in his Banished Dark Moon King Mark.

Both of them should be the strongest skills in his arsenal right now.

On top of that, he also needs to start progressing his curse side with the item he gained.

Nodding his head finding that it's the best course of action right now, Rex quickly asked the System for item suggestions that he could help him train before about five distinctive vials appeared in front of him alongside dozens of the same vials on the other side.

Rex grabs the vials and quickly chugged them all in one go.

Since he would be training such vicious skills that are chaotic in nature and requires him to use kingly energy extensively, the five vials were mostly internal body enhancement to help him get used to the sensation.

On the other hand, the dozens of identical vials were for replenishing his kingly energy.

Unlike regular mana, spirit energy, or even force, kingly energy came from within. It's produced constantly by the King Mark, and it wouldn't run out as long as the King Mark is active. But extensive use of it and a wounded body will deactivate it the same.

Albeit that was the case, the System stated that it could be fixed.

Just like running for regular people, at some point, they would tire and be in need of rest. For the King Mark, using it constantly will tire it, and the way for it to rest is through specific meditation that would repair the King Mark.

In the Banished Realm, Rex wouldn't be wounded enough to deactivate his King Mark.

One and only thing that he needs to pay attention to is the exhaustion of his King Mark, and thus the dozens of identical vials that he bought have the effect of increasing the potency of the meditation by 5 times.

Repairing his King Mark would be 5 times faster, and he would be able to train endlessly.

Striding forward into the empty horizon with his back facing the Countess, Rex activate his Blood Moon King Mark before pulsating reddish power started to come out of his body, bearing the respected power of a King.

The water underneath his feet started to make way, creating a dry circle around him.

'Feel the kingly energy inside before directing them slowly into my arm. Since I'm here to train, then I would not hold back any of my power. I'll master this in no time!' Rex thought, nodding to himself confidently.

But it was then, a notification from the System appeared.



The Countess of the Dark Lunirich has given the user an opportunity to train and perfects the user's abilities. Make sure to master the Brutal Impulse and Seize of Twilight Moon Ability, and also creates a curse source before the user's body recovers and got pulled away from the Banished Realm.

Quest Reward: 200 Million Exp, Jar of Malison, and 2 Million Gold.

Surprisingly, the System gave him a sudden quest for trying to become stronger in this Banished Realm. The rewards are not that great compared to the last sudden quest, but that's completely fine for him.

'I'm not going to refuse free rewards like this' Rex thought with a light smile.



Although it's quite weird for the System to behave like this, giving him a sudden quest when the situation is not dire, he would complain. If the System decided that it would be quite generous to him for today, then he would gladly accept it.

Rex's eyes burned with kingly energy before he takes a deep breath.

It was then, a fierce glint appeared in his eyes as he throw a punch forward with all his might. The muscles in his arm bulged to the absolute limit, showing that he was not pulling back his punch right now.

"Moon Ability, Brutal Impulse..."'

KABOOM!

Crack!

Like a fierce torpedo, Rex could feel the kingly energy inside his arm becomes chaotic.

Gazing at his right arm right now which is fueled with kingly energy, Rex was surprised when he finds that it was shaking violently. Even compared to the Brutal Impulse he threw at the Executor, back then it was not shaking this violently.

Rex didn't launch with everything he has back then, he was hesitating.

But even when he was hesitating back then, he was able to hurt the Executor. Remembering that, he becomes even more eager to perfect this ability, it would be a detrimental ability that would win him many fights.

Now that he's here, he decided to see the full extent of the Brutal Impulse ability.

Similar to back then, ancient writings of an unknown language crawl out into existence but this time they were even more robust and the energy inside of them was gushing out like a raging torrent.

It surprised Rex as he could feel his kingly energy drained rapidly.

'Control it... control it!' Rex gritted his teeth while he tries his best to control the energy.

Despite his serious attempt, the kingly energy was too violent for him.

Splash!

"Gaarggh!"

Rex grunted when his entire arm exploded like before, he fell to his knees while grabbing his right arm which was now reduced all the way to his shoulder. It makes him frown as this shouldn't be happening.

Panting heavily, he looks at his non-existent right arm and frowns.

'I thought I'm better at controlling kingly energy, how did this happen? Is the Brutal Impulse that strong? Should I cut back the power little by little so I can get accustomed to it?' He thought, pondering the matter deeply.I think you should take a look at

But it was then, the Countess opens her mouth again.

"That won't do. Kingly energy from different full moons has different properties, and the blood moon is chaotic and exerts one of the strongest forces among the full moons. In order to use that ability perfectly, don't garner every kingly energy you have in an instant. Instead, gradually increase it while the ability manifest"

"Remember, that ability is a Direct Moon Ability. It requires more than the kingly energy produced by your King Mark. If you feel like the ability demands more kingly energy, draw it from the outside. Absorb the moonlight energy outside and convert it into your kingly energy"

Listening to the Coutness' explanation attentively, Rex then nodded his head.

Due to the nature of the Brutal Impulse Moon Ability, it demanded an immense amount of kingly energy. He followed the flow and supply it with the kingly energy in an instant, and that turns out to be the wrong move.

Even though it's the ability's nature, he always needs to be in control.

Considering the mistakes that he made earlier, Rex tries for the second time with his left arm this time. Like earlier, he infused enough kingly energy and punched the void in front of him before the ancient writings started to come out again.

It was then, he felt the demand for kingly energy started to increase.

'Now!'

Rex started putting more and more kingly energy as the ancient writing spreads wider and wider, he then started to do as the Countess said to absorb the moonlight energy and convert them into kingly energy.

But right when he did that, his left arm also exploded into meat paste.

Splash!

"Damn it! It's harder to concentrate while casting the ability like that" Rex cursed out loud.

Smiling lightly finding that despite his god-like talent for having the Royal Black Prince bloodline, Rex still has his own share of trouble in learning new abilities. It was a sight that only a few has the privileged to see.

Waving her hand lightly, the Countess sends her energy towards Rex.

In an instant, Rex looks at his non-existent two arms and sees the water underneath his feet climbing up and reconstructing them from nothing. A moment later, his arms recovered completely and he could use them as he pleased.

Almost as if his arms were not completely destroyed earlier.

"Keep trying, Royal Black Prince. I'll assist you from the sidelines..." the Countess expressed.

Upon hearing this, Rex smiled before he continues his training.

Splash!

Clank!

Splash!

An unknown amount of time has passed, and Rex has been trying to master the Brutal Impulse skill repeatedly. His arms exploded countless times already, and the vials to meditate were starting to be reduced substantially.

Rex indulges in a world of extreme training, disregarding everything except for himself.

Despite the pain from having his internal organs shook and his arms exploding, he kept on going like a maniac, knowing that this is an opportunity that he couldn't miss. A moment like this is hard to come by.

It was so extreme that the training started to take a mental toll on him.

Not even Rex himself could guess that the full extent of the Brutal Impulse skill is this hard to master, he was trying his very hardest but it was simply too hard to master it perfectly as he wanted.

Even knowing the right path didn't help much in accustoming himself to doing this ability.

Although he only finds it natural back then, he now remembered the time when he stole the True Werewolf King Blood Physique from King Baralt. The expression he wore when King Baralt realized that he could use that ability is that of extreme shock.

But now that he felt the struggle, King Baralt's shock has become natural.

Clearly, King Baralt has been training to use that ability very hard. It probably took him years until he eventually managed to use it in a fight. Seeing that Rex was able to do that in an instant, it's natural for him to react that way.

It was only possible thanks to the System, he wouldn't be able to do it without the System.

Meanwhile, back into the material world.

A tall woman with silvery long hair traverses through the forest with an absent-minded look, she seems to have her mind somewhere else instead of here. But that didn't stop the woman from keeping on striding forward.

If anyone saw this scene, they would've thought that the woman is a ghost.

Clad in armor and with a small shield on her hand, this woman looks more like a knight ghost.

Someone that got killed in war and came back to haunt the living.

But contrary to what she looks like, she should be very much alive considering that her skin is not pale like a corpse, and she also seemed to be breathing. It was more of her sniffing the air than breathing.

It was then, the woman reaches the end of the forest and arrived on a desolate plain.

At the end of the desolate plain was a sky-high wall with numerous turrets and weaponry stationed on it, humans in military outfits and also white robes can be seen on top of the wall, guarding the wall in alert.

No Supernaturals wouldn't know this place, it's the Great Barricade of the humans.

Engraved on the wall is somekind of mark that takes the shape of a crescent moon with a two-headed dagger stabbing from below, and it's glowing subtly, emitting some sort of aroma that some find pleasant.

One of the people on the wall squinted his eyes when he saw the woman with silvery hair.

Upon seeing this, the man then calls out for someone.

Soon enough, a man clad in a black robe and a crow mask appeared and saw the woman striding alone on the desolate plain. Catching this sight, the black messenger then tilted his head in amusement.

"So this one is the weakest link, the pendant is really potent..."
