Chapter 126 Exceeding Blood Limit
The guy's head split like a watermelon, blood spurted out of his head staining Rex and Adhara's faces in red.
Kyran saw this from the door, he turns his head away from the scene.
Seeing this, the other two Awakened widened their eyes in shock, "How dare you! You'll be hanged by the FAA if they know you just killed an Awakened!"
"Just you wait! We'll definitely report this!", the other Awakened added.
Adhara looks at Rex with a worried face, she knows the consequences of killing an Awakened without solid evidence.
"Rex, what do we do? it will be bad for us if that were to happen", Adhara whispers.
Hearing this, a devious smirk crept on Rex's face.
He then glances at the two Awakened with his piercing eyes, "The Orcs breached the wall attacking the people in Wedron City, Three Awakened dies after bravely fighting off the Orcs risking their lives to protect thousands of people"
The two Awakened froze on their spot, they even unconsciously held their breath.
The words coming out of Rex's mouth greatly stunned them, they didn't expect to meet a ruthless Awakened just when they're partying.
"How's the story? It's pretty good right?", Rex said with a devious smirk.
Rex's smile sent a shiver on the two Awakened's spine, "They will certainly find out! There are many witnesses here!", one of them shouted.
"You take all of their food, you drink all of their drinks, you even give up helping them. Compared to me the soon-to-be savior of this city, which one do you think they will choose?", Rex said while rubbing his chin mockingly.
The words make the two Awakened's throat dry, they can't believe what they're hearing.
"Goodbye..."
SPLAT!!
~
Rex and Adhara went out of the house after finishing off the three Awakened, there's no remorse on Rex's face but Adhara is still shocked.
She didn't manage to stop Rex from killing them, Rex is too ruthless.
Kyran is also walking beside them, he's weirdly silent.
"Why did you kill them?", Kyran said suddenly.
Rex and Adhara stopped,
He then glances at Kyran, "Why shouldn't we kill them?", Rex asks back.
Kyran gazed at Rex for a moment before he answered, "Although they're bad people, I think they can change in the future. They're also an Awakened, they can help humanity to some extent"
Hearing this, Adhara then approaches Kyran with a smile.
She held Kyran's shoulder gently and said, "Sometimes, bad people like them just can't change"
Kyran wanted to rebut but then Rex added, "Although we're an Awakened, we can't think ourselves higher than normal people. Those guys I killed, they take the normal people's resources just because they're an Awakened"
"This is the same as killing thousands of normal people, think about that", Rex said before he resumes his walks.
He doesn't like selfish people like that who bring other down, they're still humans and they should've tried until the very end.
Adhara rubs Kyran's hair gently, she smiles before she signals Kyran to follow them.
They went back to see Troy, it's time to start their operation.
"There are two hundred soldiers at first, but now there are only thirty lefts", Troy said with a sigh, he looks helpless about the situation.
He then continues, "The Orcs is seizing us from all sides, and they are numbering in hundreds. The Orc will probably attack us again, we need to ready ourselves"
Hearing this, Rex fell in thought.
'I can just go there and kill all of them if the Warchief is a mid or peak rank four', Rex thought.
If the Orcs are really as expected, then with his current power he can just massacre all of them but the thing is he still doesn't know the Warchief's power.
He felt skeptical because of the Orc's clan symbol, he just feel it isn't right.
"Have you seen the Warchief leading the orcs?", Rex asks.
Troy thinks for a second before he said, "No, we haven't seen the Warchief but I know where he might be residing"
"Let me settle down first, we'll be right back", Rex said.
Hearing this, Troy then leads them to their temporary room to settle down.
Inside the room,
"Adhara, do you still have your elemental stones?", Rex asks as he put down his things.
Adhara glance at Rex, "I still have, don't worry I'll break through rank four in just a bit", she said while taking out her equipment.
She then glances at Rex with a meaningful nod.
Seeing the nod, Rex look at Kyran and said, "You, come with me for a second"
Kyran is surprised by the sudden call, he then stands up immediately before he follows Rex outside of the room.
Rex leads Kyran while avoiding the people in the city hall, he's trying to find a remote place.
They then arrive in an empty room Rex found around the corner, it was locked and isolated but Rex forcefully gets in.
Kyran glance around the room in confusion, he didn't know why he's brought here.
"Kyran", Rex called.
Kyran turns to his back and looks at Rex who is closing the door, "Why did you bring me here?"
"You said you want to be an Awakened, I got good news and bad news for you", Rex said as he walks to the window and opens it.
Hearing this, Kyran frowns.
"The good news is that I can make you stronger, the bad news is that you will not be an Awakened", Rex said frontally.
He doesn't like to beat around the bush, "Do you still want it?"
Kyran fell into thoughts, his eyebrows are scrunched before he said, "If I have this power you speak of, will I be able to save people?"
"Of course, you will be stronger and can still think for yourself", Rex said with a mysterious smile.
Silence covers the whole room, Kyran is still contemplating Rex's words.
He looks down and back to Rex a couple of times, he then finally steeled his will and said, "Then you can do it, as long as what you said is true then I don't mind"
Hearing this, Rex smiles.
'Well it's the truth, I just didn't tell him about the full-moon', Rex thought.
By becoming a Werewolf, Kyran will definitely go berserk during the full moon. He might hurt other people but Rex will definitely be there to babysit him.
He then said to the system, 'System, What is the available rune to turn Kyran into a half-Werewolf?'
<Strength Rune and Dark Rune are available>
Reading this, Rex then asks, 'Can rune be purchased in the shop?'
<Yes, the shop feature has everything the user need>
Rex then browses through the system, the available rune is not compatible with Kyran's gifts in sense.
He wants to find some rune to amplify Kyran's senses.
'Hmm, there should be a rune to amplify senses right', Rex thought as he scrolls to through the shop.
Not long, he then suddenly thought, 'Wait, becoming a half-werewolf will amplify his gifts. That means his senses will already be amplified, then I should give him a rune to help him be mobile'
Rex decided to search for the rune in the shop when suddenly he remembered the Dark Rune.
He then read the description of it,
<Dark Rune>
This rune can be used to add dark properties to a branded target. The target can blend with the dark, silent steps, and their aura will be suppressed. It's a perfect rune for hiding and ambushing.
Reading this, Rex nodded his head.
'If he's going to be our eyes and ears, then he will need this rune', Rex thought.
He then looks at Kyran with a smile, this smile makes Kyran steps back unconsciously feeling the bad intention of Rex.
Rex approaches Kyran with a smile, he stretches out his hand.
Kyran wanted to back up but his back hits the wall, he felt Rex become a scary being as the dark red aura materializes on Rex's back.
Rex then puts his palm to Kyran's chest and pinned him to the wall.
"Brand!"
SHING!
The rune on Rex's palm glows as it started to burn Kyran's chest, "ARGHH!!", Kyran started to scream because of the burn.
CRACK!
His body started to make a cracking sound, the bones move in a weird manner.
This makes him scream even louder, his shout is so loud that Rex decided to muffled Kyran's mouth fearing the other will hear him.
Rex then dragged Kyran's body and held him in front of the window so he can bathe in the moonlight.
The process takes longer than Adhara, it is already past five minutes.
Kyran's eyes started to tear up, the bone in his body becomes even sturdier and thicker. The pain must be unbearable just by the looks of it.
<Transformation Success, feed Kyran a drop of the user's blood>
After getting the confirmation from the system, Rex scratches his hand and feeds Kyran his blood.
The blood flows into Kyran's mouth,
Because of Kyran's struggle, it's hard to just drop blood to him so Rex just muffled his mouth with his injured hands to let the blood went inside his mouth.
But then suddenly,
"AAAARRGHHH!!!!", Kyran screamed even louder.
<Exceeding blood limit, please stop feeding Kyran the user's blood>
Reading this, Rex immediately stops putting the blood in Kyran's mouth, 'There's a limit to it? What will happen now?'
Thud!
Kyran fell to the ground before he started rolling on the ground.
His eyes started to roll to the back, Kyran is in so much pain that he started to scratch his body injuring himself like a madman.
'System, what's going on?', Rex asks.
<The user feeds too much blood. The blood makes his transformation almost nearing perfect Werewolf, his survivability will depend on his will>
Reading this, Rex looks at Kyran in worry, 'Damn it, Can I do anything to help him?'
<No, it purely depends on Kyran's will>
Rex then buys from the shop Silent Rune, he wanted to muffle the room so that Kyran can shout however he wants without restraint.
That's at least what he can do for Kyran, for his careless mistake.
After a while, the screaming stopped.
Kyran's body lies on the ground unmoving, it happened suddenly.
Rex looks at Kyran in worry, he immediately checks Kyran's vein and found out that there's no pulse anymore.
'Damn it!', Rex cursed himself.
He paces around the room in guilt, his careless result in Kyran's death.
But then suddenly,
Kyran opened his eyes abruptly, he breathes a deep breath as he stands up from the ground in panic.
"What happened to me! Is it over?", He asks Rex in confusion.
Kyran touches his own body with a panicked face, he felt that his bones moved so he's trying to check if there are any changes in his body.
His face is pale in fright, the process he went through scarred him.
Seeing Kyran still alive, Rex sighs a sigh of relief, "It's alright, It's alright, It's done you can relax now", Rex said trying to calm Kyran down.
Kyran steps back from Rex in fear, "What did you do to me?"
Before answering Kyran, Rex's eyes glisten as he looks at Kyran's stats.
<Kyran Cervantes>
Race: Half-Werewolf
Power: Rank Three(Peak) - Sense Overload
Mental: 43
Strength: 37
Agility: 67
Endurance: 36
Intelligence: 0
Seeing Kyran's stats, Rex widened his eyes in shock.
His usual stoic expression that he usually can maintain although he's shocked crumbles, Kyran's stats are simply astonishing.
'Gifted people turn into a better Werewolf than I expected', Rex thought.
