The Invincible Full-Moon System

Chapter 982 Convincing Calidora

"I can ask you about it later if you're not up for anything right now. This is your castle, and I'm only a guest. At the very least I should respect your need for privacy" Rex shook his head, he couldn't come out as rude and risk offending Calidora in ways he didn't know or even realize.

He really can't mess this up, this is the crucial part of his planning.

With the stake heightened to the point of uncomfortably high, he needs to be extra careful.

Seeing him being like this, Calidora chuckled sweetly.

Not once has she ever seen Rex being this overtly courteous.

Calidora could clearly tell that he was trying to not offend him for some unknown reason, but it was obvious that he needed something yet didn't want to shove it at her. It must be quite an important something to make him act like this.

But considering that he was usually dominant, seeing this side of him is quite refreshing.

"Rex, if you're being like this, you're also making me uncomfortable," Calidora said assuringly. "Treat this castle as your own, and talk to me normally. If you need something, go ahead and tell me. As long as I don't need to step out into the light, then I'm fine"

Upon hearing this, Rex could only smile wryly.

He cursed himself realizing that he must be acting way too differently than normal.

Clearing his throat, he decided to take Calidora on her offer and act normally, "I could tell that your cursed power has gotten stronger again since you were able to bring me to the underground chamber yourself. On that note, I wanted your help to cultivate my cursed source and reach the ninth epiphany"

A peculiar glint, flashed inside Calidora's eyes when she heard this.

She wanted to ask what he remembered from last night, and now she got the answer.

'Bring him to the underground chamber? I thought he would at least remember a bit from last night, but it seems he passed out completely. I'm not going to correct him though' Calidora pondered, coming to a realization that Rex didn't recall anything from last night.

Then again, during the feeding process, he was out of it.

In addition, when he exited the bed chamber, he was also being influenced hard by the last stroke of the Hare Moon. Lastly, within the underground chamber, he went berserk and transformed so he also didn't remember that.

So it was understandable that he didn't remember anything that happened last night.

"Help cultivate your cursed source? And why would I do that?" Calidora asked.

Currently, she has the upper hand in the cursed power.

Due to her superior cursed power, she can control Rex within a limit, such as stopping him completely during an attack. If Rex's cursed source grew stronger, then she would also lose that ability as controlling him would be harder then.

Obviously, she was leaning to refuse to help him in this regard.

Upon hearing this, Rex remained silent for a brief second, his mind turning its gears.

I think taking the soft approach wouldn't work for Calidora.

She even noticed it instantly.

Judging from her character, and the way Evelyn portrayed her, it was clear that she likes me in her twisted way. So she must like the usual me, and becoming less dominant wouldn't let me have my way with her.

Rex nodded, he decided that he would act as if he didn't need Calidora's help that much.

He excels in this kind of thing, so he's not worried.

"What do you think about the Executor, Calidora?" Rex suddenly asked, his eyes squinting.

Not expecting that kind of question, Calidora arched an eyebrow. She contemplated for a second before she eventually replied, "A nuisance to the world, but very strong. Eventually, the threat he poses would reach me, and it's preferable if he dies before that occurs"

"Right, you're a Supernatural after all" Rex nodded, expecting her answer to be like this.

He then continued nonchalantly, "His purpose is to make Humanity sovereign again, and he would sit at the top of power, ruling over the entire world. So, of course, you would need to think about that eventually" But then, a mysterious smile climbed to his face. "Now, what if I say that you are one of the targets in the Executor's kill list?"

"Me...? I don't even know him, it's impossible" Calidora was completely perplexed.

Being on the Executor's kill list never crossed her mind.

However, from the way Rex was smiling, it didn't seem like he was lying, "Yes, you don't know him, and there's no reason for the Executor to put you on his kill list. But... you do realize that you are not quite likable amongst my pack, right?"

Upon hearing this, Caldiora's eyes widened in realization.

In the next second, her countenance darkens, "Is it Evelyn? What did she do...?"

"No, it's not her, you'll be surprised" Rex shook his head, and the smile remained on his face. "It was Gistella. She sneaked out of my territory and went to the Executor. I was in really big trouble because of her before coming here, and from what I can decipher, she decided to help the Executor take me down in exchange for the Executor killing you..."

Calidora narrowed her eyes, trying to see whether it was really the truth or not.

Personally, she wanted to believe that this was a lie.

But there was no sign of Rex lying about what he said, he was completely truthful, and even the blood inside of him was coursing at a normal pace. Calidora was absolutely shocked by the news, she didn't realize that Gistella would go to such a length.

'Huh... This is unexpected. Then again, if I pass this, taking Rex for myself will come true'

Despite the news, Calidora's mind is still set on one goal.

Returning to her normal expression, she then asked, "I am quite surprised by this, and I'm sorry that Gistella betrayed you but... What does this have to do with helping you cultivate your cursed source?"

"I need to cultivate my cursed source to kill the Executor" Rex eventually confessed.

lightsΝοvεl ?οm Now is the time for him to be transparent.

"If you refuse to help, my plan's failure is imminent, and the Executor will win. After I die, then you're going to be next. In a way, we're in the same boat, Calidora. Like the Eternal Curse that bound us together, my death will result in your death. So knowing this, are you still not going to help me?" Rex asked once again, now with a more confident look.

He had already rephrased his request to be irrefutable.

Calidora would be seeking death if she still fixed on not wanting to help him cultivate.

Naturally, Caldiora has her own doubts about this as it was too coincidental for Gistella to be seeking her demise which leads to this situation. She was reluctant to help Rex with this due to the fact that this was the one thing she was better than Rex.

If she helped him, then she would lose that advantage.

Her stress could be seen through her biting her bottom lip with a clear frown on her face.

Come on, you know you can't refuse to help me.

Rex was observing Calidora's expression closely, he wanted to see whether he would need to give another push to make her agree. But it seemed there was no need as Calidora let out a deep sigh in defeat and rested her hand above her stomach.

"Okay, I'll help you. If the time is pressing, I can even transfer my cursed energy to you"

"What...?"

Out of nowhere, the table was turned as Rex was now the one who seemed to be troubled.

Just like that? She decided to help me just like that? She doesn't need any more convincing, promises, or guarantees? Heck, she even offered to give up her cursed energy to me if the time was pressing as if it meant nothing to her.

What is this? What is she thinking? Now I'm the one who became hesitant.

Surprised by her compliance, Rex looked at her intently, pure doubt on his countenance.

But furthering his mind to be wild, Calidora pivoted around.

"Let's go. Let's do it right now, inside this room" She said, gesturing for him to start training.

Although this was a good progression for him, as he now convinced Calidora to help him willingly, he doesn't feel good at all. Doubts haunted his mind, and he couldn't take care of his doubts as Calidora had already started cultivating already.

Guess everything went according to plan... Yeah, whatever, let's start cultivating.

...

Meanwhile, back to the Shifting Realm.

Inside the shroud of the forest were Elder Nolacula and Elder Tilrith, both of them watched the battle inside the Shifting Realm from start to finish and gained some insights that they put in their arsenal of knowledge.

Despite losing so many people, the two already knew the risk and had no problem.

None of them felt sorry for the fallen Demons and Vampires.

"Hmm... I wished the Executor would do more than that. His ability to render Kurt like that is something that I am aware of, it's the innate ability of Chaos elements called Corrupted Reflection, able to reflect a spell his body sustained to others in a corrupted version" Elder Nolacula mused with a dejected tone.

Most of the Executors have this power, so it's quite a renowned ability.

Upon hearing this, Elder Tilrith nodded her head, "Since that Vampire cast a blood spell, the Executor gained a transient command over blood energy and made him end like that. Alas, it's quite regrettable that the Royal Black Prince was only able to elicit that much"

Just as the two were talking, two figures dashed and landed gracefully beside them.

Both then went to one knee in respect to the Elders.

Appearance-wise, one figure resembled a human woman, but she was obviously not a human judging from the blue demonic aura that she was emitting. Naturally, this figure is definitely one of the Executioners of Tyro.

On the other hand, the other figure is a Vampire in its ancient form.

Despite his hulking bat-like body, its presence was fainter than even the smallest dark fairy.

Elder Tilrith and Elder Nolacula have infiltrated both of them inside the armies.

Both of them are tasked to keep a distance and not engage in a fight and would come to meet with the Elders when the entire army that they sent here was defeated. Now that they are here, it's a clear signal that the army was done already.

Not even needing to say anything, the Elders intend to leave to prepare for their next move.

However, the Vampire suddenly called, "I plead for forgiveness, Elders..."

Upon hearing this, Elder Nolacula and Elder Tilrith stopped and turned to look at the Vampire with a questioning look. In haste, the Vampire continues, "A lot of our people are dead, and I humbly ask why we are doing this?"

"If we want to stop the Executor, then a full force is what we need" he added to his question.

Elder Tilrith looked at Elder Nolacula after he finished his question.

Obviously, it was Elder Nolacula's subordinate who asked the question, and he would need to be the one to answer. Moreover, questioning the Elders is bad etiquette and Elder Nolacula was slightly embarrassed by this.

"Firstly, you know nothing, Fabio. I suggest keeping your question to yourself next time"

Bowing his head deeper, Fabio apologized again, "I'm sorry, Elder"

Scoffing lightly, Elder Nolacula then continued, "As for the answer to your question, it's because we are not aiming to stop the Executor here. In a couple of days, the Executor would reach the Symposium of Upper Divinities, and there is where the real fight begins"

"That's where the real fight begins...?" Fabio utters back, still puzzled.

Elder Nolacula nodded firmly before he smirked, "Yes. Even the Executor knows that, which is why he didn't do anything, to reserve his energy. He knows that when he reaches the Symposium, he will be fighting not two sides, but three sides at the same time..."
