Later that night,

In front of a big building with an elegant modern-style grey front, the Awakened Transcendence Stadium is crowded with people right now. Many people that seem to be paparazzi can be seen in front of the place, they seem to be waiting for someone.

"Please disperse from the place or we will resort to force!"

A woman that has her brown hair tied into a bun shouted but got ignored by the paparazzi, they all are stubborn without a hint of intending to leave at all. Most of them even ignored the woman shouting helplessly asking for them to leave.

Despite her best attempt to make the paparazzi go away, the woman is unable to do anything.

"Eugh... why did the others suddenly ask to leave early? Why am I the one left here alone..."

The woman stomped her foot standing with her shoulders slouched in front of the Awakened Transcendence Building\'s entrance, she already decided to give up dispersing the paparazzi knowing that it was futile.

With no actual backup that she has, the woman was rendered useless to disperse the crowd.

All that she hoped for right now is for the person that was about to come to not be mad at her with so many paparazzi in front of the entrance, if not then she will be embarrassed even more.

The stadium is oddly empty for this time around, it\'s late in the night with no one around.

Every top ten families don\'t book any arenas for today as if they were devoid of training activity just today in a union, but despite that, the paparazzi are staying in front of the building expecting a certain someone to arrive.

Not long after, two black sedans appeared from the distance of the street.

Upon seeing the approaching black sedans, the paparazzi have already waited for more than six hours started to get riled up. The ones that hold the camera turned it on before pointing the camera right at the black sedans.

"It must be him! Quick get closer and take a snap of him!

"He\'s here, everyone get ready!"

The front of the entrance started to become lively against seeing the black sedans arrive, and a muscular man with a dashing maroon suit and tie steps out of the car looking around with his piercing eyes.

But just as the man steps out, the paparazzi starts to crowd him without any restraint.

"Sir Rex Silverstar, it\'s been said that the Silverstar Family has given the quota to the war. Are you here to replenish that quota and hire more Awakened members into your family?"

"When will the recruitment begin? Many Awakened are dying to know!"

"Please listen to me, is it true that the Silverstar Family booked the entire arena just for today? What kind of occasion for you to do that?"

"Is the official life story of yours published by the UWO accurate?"

Rex was thrown with a bunch of random questions that he had never really thought of before, but the paparazzi are beasts hungry for news and rumors so they are trying to bait any answer from his mouth. It even surprises him that the paparazzi manage to get their hands on him booking the stadium.

But it\'s not his intention to book the entire arena, Sebrof called him just a couple of hours before.

Since the camera inside the arena was to be used by Sebrof to keep a lookout on the top ten families of the 25 Golden Crest, it\'s not his intention to peek at Rex or the Silverstar Family\'s power. As a positive gesture, he decided to let Rex have the entire stadium for himself.

It\'s convenient for him so Rex didn\'t decline and just accepted the kind gesture.

Knowing that there are cameras inside the arenas, Sebrof might be wary that Rex might tell the other families about that. In truth, there are not that many high-rank Awakened trains in the Awakened Transcendence Stadium. Only seventh rank at most but it\'s rare.

They don\'t realize that the stadium has cameras, but Rex sense it almost instantly.

Although it looks like he finds the cameras using his instinct alone, a device such as a camera is very hard to be sensed by his raw sense alone. But the system comes into play and helps him spot the cameras when he decided to check the arena when he knows that the stadium is overseen by Sebrof.

It\'s just a Sebrof thing to do putting cameras inside the arenas to spy on the training Awakened.

\'Did Sebrof tell the media about this? But I don\'t see why he would do that, maybe I\'m just overthinking it\', Rex thought before he nonchalantly walks through the crowd. Seeing the desperation in the paparazzi\'s eyes, Rex sighs lightly.

"I have no comment"

"Please at least give us something sir, anything will be fine!"

His calm reply definitely upsets the paparazzi that already waited for hours for this moment, they kept pressing on while Rex walked toward the receptionist that is standing in front of the entrance with a straight back professionally.

There\'s a hint of nervousness behind her smile and Rex saw through her easily.

"Welcome sir, Rex! I\'ve already prepared the arenas you booked, do you want to go straight to the arena?", the receptionist asks politely giving him the best of her smile.

Rex stares at her for a couple of seconds before turning around to face the paparazzi.

Although he didn\'t blame the receptionist for the crowding paparazzi in front of the entrance waiting for him, the receptionist misunderstand his brief stare. She definitely thought that Rex is blaming her for the paparazzi.

Then again, she\'s a receptionist lady, not the security.

"I will answer a couple of your questions, but I will ask you this one time. After I answered your question, please leave the stadium for the sake of my privacy", Rex finally declared, he doesn\'t want the paparazzi waiting for him when he came out again.

As if dangling carrots in front of a rabbit, the crowd roared in excitement and threw their questions.

Meanwhile, as Rex stands in front of the crowd and answers the questions, a couple of people walk out of the black sedans before they sneak into the entrance. These people are, of course, Adhara and the others that don\'t want to be spotted by the paparazzi.

They all are covered by Kyran\'s dark element so they\'re basically invisible.

But just to be safe they decided to sneak in carefully to make room for excuses if they did get caught, some of the paparazzi are also an Awakened so although is unlikely there\'s a chance that they might sense Adhara and the others.

It\'s something they can\'t risk no matter how small the chances are, being caught is not an option.

The receptionist glances to the side in confusion seeing the entrance of the stadium opened by its own, she frowns for a second but the excitement coming from the paparazzi piqued her attention again making her worried.

Upon entering the arena, the others went out of the paparazzi\'s sight.

When the place is clear Kyran then deactivated his dark element exposing Adhara and Gistella alongside him. Edward didn\'t come as he was tasked to look after the mansion.

"There are so many people outside..."

"I think our plan to go here is leaked, will it be okay to fight with them outside?"

"Rex will handle it, don\'t worry"

Kyran nodded his head agreeing with what Adhara said, but both of their attention shifted to Gistella on the side that is silent from the car all the way to here.  It\'s clear that she\'s nervous because of the fight she was about to do.

Although fighting with Adhara is okay, the reason why she\'s fighting Adhara is the problem.

To make matters worst, it seems Rex is still angry despite already two days since the incident. Gistella\'s body is shaking remembering the bloodthirsty glare she received from Rex that night.

"Do... Do you think I should just let you hit me?", Gistella finally opens her mouth.

Gistella raises her gaze and looks at both Kyran and Adhara asking for their advice, the terror in her eyes is clear like water. It\'s the same fearful look that she wears when she met with Rex for the first time.

"No, if you do that Rex will definitely be angrier"

"I agree with Kyran, just give it your best shot and let the loser bear the consequences"

With the confirmation from both of them, Gistella nodded her head although feeling a bit guilty towards Adhara that sticks her neck in just to help her. Adhara saw this guilty look before she smiles reassuringly and holds Gistella\'s shoulder, "Don\'t look at me like that, I made the choice on my own"

Just after he said that Rex can be seen walking inside the stadium followed by the receptionist.

Upon walking toward the others, the receptionist was confused upon seeing the others are already inside. She didn\'t see anyone entering aside from the weird occurrence at the entrance, "Let\'s get this over with...", Rex mutters while walking past them.

The receptionist stops beside the others before she bowed lightly with an apologetic look.

"I\'m sorry for saying this, but can you please not sneak in like that? I can get in trouble..."

Hearing this Adhara smiles wryly as they need to sneak in to not alert the paparazzi, "We\'re sorry but we\'re avoiding the paparazzi, and while we\'re at it please keep our presence here a secret. If anyone asks just say that Rex is training alone here"

"Yes!", the receptionist nodded her head repeatedly before leading them to the arena.

A moment later,

The receptionist opens the arena that Rex has already checked earlier before the others walk in, she bowed to Rex and the others before closing the arena door back politely.

"Are there no cameras here?

"I already checked, you don\'t have to worry"

Rex summons a holographic screen in front of him before he taps a couple of buttons there.

Upon clicking the last button using his fingers, the ceiling of the arena slowly opened revealing the sharp crescent moon that is shining brightly in the night sky. The ceiling is not actually opened, it just becomes see-through.

Following that, the entire place slowly changes into the desolate plains like before.

Adhara looks around the place and finds the place becomes exactly like the scenery in front of the Great Barricade, it\'s open so it\'s perfect to become a fighting field. With the setup done, Rex walks to the side before he stands in the corner of the room with his arms crossed in front of him.

<Hierarchy Fight of Adhara Alpenore and Gistella is about to start>

<Combat Stake>

Occupation: Female Alpha

Hierarchy Rank: 1st

Battle Reward: 4% Evolution Process

\'Does that mean the winner will become the Female Alpha and also reach the 1st rank in the Battle Prowess Hierarchy?\'

<Yes!>

Nodding to himself, Rex glances at Adhara and Gistella with sharp eyes.

As if they know what that look means, Adhara and Gistella look at each other before they step forward leaving Kyran standing on the side secretly cheering for Gistella to win regardless of what Rex wants.

"Both of you will fight until I tell you to stop, is that clear?"

Adhara and Gistella nodded their heads showing that they understand.

Despite it sounding obvious both of them felt their heart clenched upon hearing what Rex said, he basically means that keep hitting the loser side until he said stop. It was purposefully done that way in order to make Adhara keep beating Gistella regardless of her condition.

"Get into your Werewolf form"

Obediently following Rex\'s instruction, Gistella is the first one to turn.

The bones inside her body started making cracking sounds and moved visibly from the outside, her bones are like snakes that slither around inside her body trying to break free out of the shackle of her skin.

Not only that, instead of fur her body slowly turns bronze color boasting her bloodline.

With the black heart in the middle of her chest beating rapidly and vigorously, Gistella glanced one more time at Rex asking for confirmation before she shifted back her attention to Adhara. Gistella then takes a huge breath her eyes flash,

ROAR!!

A thunderous roar escaped her mouth as the benefit of the 1st Hierarchy Rank is activated.

Sitting on the 1st Battle Prowess Hierarchy, Gistella has access to the Suppression skill during the Hierarchy Combat that decreased the stats of her opponents by 10%, Adhara can feel her being suppressed by Gistella clearly.

Upon seeing this, Kyran\'s eyes flash in excitement rooting for Gistella.

But her eyes caught a devious smile plastered on Rex\'s face, his attention then was pulled to Adhara when other cracking sounds can be heard as Adhara slowly turned into her Werewolf form.

Kyran widens his eyes when he saw Adhara\'s eyes glow with white light.

Unlike the previous transformation that makes her glow with black furs, she now starting to grow white furs as she falls to the ground with her body sizzling with heat. Gritting her teeth strongly, Adhara sustained the pain she suffered as her body slowly gets bigger and bigger.

Even her claws which should be black steel turn into silvery steel instead.

Although he was confident in his own ability as a Dark Elementalist, Kyran can feel his gift in a sensitive sense telling him to run away as he witnesses Adhara transforming into her Werewolf form.

Clawing the ground with menace, Adhara gazes up to the moon as her mouth turns into a muzzle.

​ A low baritone growl that makes the heart tremble can be heard, it was a growl that is very different than any others that Kyran has ever heard. Something that sounded like a Werewolf but completely different at the same time.

Gistella steps back unconsciously as Adhara stood up on her feet showing her new transformation.

Upon seeing her transformation exposed clearly to the eyes, Rex can\'t help but cracks a grin that spreads ear-to-ear, \'How can I decline this bloodline evolution, it\'s simply a dime that I can\'t pass\'

\'Who would\'ve thought that she turned into such a being that can even scare a King of Werewolf...\'

\'I remember seeing its fragment in the museum, but thankfully I\'m an Exalted Royal Black Prince if not then I might even be suppressed just by seeing her. Who would\'ve thought that she turned into Werewolf Proxy of the White Omicron...\'
