Chapter 1054  Reverese Extortion

It was masked underneath the facade of chilling anger, and there was no guarantee that the civilized manner was the route he would take to handle this. Judging from the approach Rex took to kill Dorlus, there was a big chance that he would take the rough route.

Since he spends little to no energy killing Dorlus, Rex is basically still ready to go again.

With his pack members in shambles, he lacked no motivation to attack.

Alerted, the princess saw Rex was about to take a step.

But the speed he exerted surprised the princess as the moment the heel of Rex\'s foot hit the ground, his body blurred and his crimson eyes reappeared inches away from her face. It was a move that completely caught the princess off-guard.

\'He\'s only a lunar clone, yet he\'s this strong?\' She gasped at the power of the new prince.

Making direct eye contact, Rex then said, "I\'m talking to you, Iseldra..."

Upon hearing this, the princess frowned.

Not many Werewolves knew the real name of the Lunirich Gods, there were only a handful of Werewolves that were aware of one or even some divine names of the Lunirich Gods. Out of all of them—most certainly, none would dare to say the Lunirich Gods\' name out loud.

However, this doesn\'t apply to Rex at all.

On top of saying the Lunirich God of Ice and Moon\'s name aloud, he said it with no regard.

Such bravery doesn\'t exist in the ancient era.

"Don\'t take her name lightly, Royal Black Prince!" the princess bellowed.

Reacting to her riled emotions, her pristine white gown flutters with deadly, icy power.

Swoosh!

But it didn\'t affect Rex at all, he wasn\'t threatened.

"I\'m not talking to you, princess. Let Iseldra possess your body" Rex instructed demandingly.

Listening to this made the princess\' expression darken, seeing that he was also taking her lightly. But in the next second, without her permission, a divine energy infiltrated her body, assaulting her with discomfort that made the veins in her neck bulge.

Rex watches this without a change in expression.

Eventually, the princess\'s eyes were opened again—now bore a completely different tone.

Her gaze now contains sharpness and regal authority of otherworldly powers.

"Such accusation is unsightly, mortal," She resumed, her voice tinted with an astral feeling to it, showing that it was not the princess talking but rather Iseldra herself. "I harbored not such feeble intent of exploiting your pack"

Upon hearing this, Rex puts on a sardonic smile, finding her a blatant hypocrite.

He didn\'t buy her words even for a second.

"If my memories serve me right, I came to your realm not too long ago with the intention to ask you for help. Regrettably, you didn\'t even let me speak and kick me out" Rex retorted, recounting the incident when he sought her aid. "However, when my pack was vulnerable, you decided to come and generously proposed them a deal? I may not know you well, but I am certain that generosity does not rank among your divine traits"

A moment earlier, Rex sensed that the others were in a fight.

Fearing that the Executor might already make a move on them, he quickly takes control of the lunar clone he left behind in the castle to go check on them. But he came to a surprise, as he saw Adhara, Flunra, and Kyran inside a temple.

Unlike what he asked them to, they left the city and went to a temple.

Not a regular temple, it seems, since it was completely filled with Ice and Snow energy.

Just from that alone, he knew that Iseldra was involved.

Instantly, Rex assumed that Iseldra had offered them something, likely assistance to him to fight against the Executor in exchange for awakening the princess. Had Iseldra mentioned this to him when he visited the Ice Realm, then she would have been genuine.

But now that she only told this to his pack members, it was clear extortion.

"I know that even if my pack succeeded, you will not fulfill your part of the deal" He added.

Listening to this, Iseldra\'s lips curled into a smile.

"Quite a sharp-minded, I see," Iseldra muttered, amused by Rex\'s deduction. She daunted a finger on her chin before she continued, "However, from the start, I never promised anything to your pack. I did your pack a favor by letting that little Devil back there, awake, before even asking your pack to awaken my princess"

"From the way I see it, I\'m doing your pack a favor," Iseldra teased, her smile blossoming.

Others might be persuaded by her, but not Rex.

"A favor? Don\'t make me laugh you selfish whore" Rex cursed dauntingly.

Upon hearing this, Iseldra\'s expression was ashen as she couldn\'t believe what Rex called her. She may let it slide for him to call her by her name blatantly, but calling her a whore is something else entirely.

An offense punishable only by the most painful death. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"I suggest minding your tongue, mortal..." She muttered in a rasping, dangerous tone.

tilted her head, killing intent oozing violently.

In a mortal guise, the Goddess\' serene visage contorted into wrath. A sudden storm brewed within the confines of her eyes as she subtly tilted her head. Rex could feel the air cackled with the killing intent of a God, her gaze piercing him for daring to besmirch her divine name.

Moreover, the weight of celestial displeasure bore down on his shoulders.

Under the lethal gaze, even Rex could feel every fiber of his entire being quake violently.

Despite his power, the one before him is a literal Goddess.

But even though the pressure coming from her almost made his legs give out, with a trail of cold sweat running down the side of his face, Rex stood his ground, "Should I be scared by this? What are you going to do, kill me?" He chuckled in contempt. "You\'re welcome to try"

Crack!

Listening to this, Iseldra\'s eyes turned colder but there was no sign of attacking.

She remained in place with a distasteful look.

"Don\'t even attempt to scare me, Iseldra. I know that you can\'t do anything to me," A smirk crept to Rex\'s lips as he said this. "I know things... I can read minds, so even if nobody was telling me, I can get my hands on information, even if that information is about the Gods"

Iseldra couldn\'t help but frown at this statement.

Even though it was impossible, his demeanor and tone suggest that he really knows things.

However, this particular information Rex knew from the Countess.

Not too long ago, after the combination attack from the Lunirich Gods at the Endless Field of Hyacinth, the Countess told him that the Lunirich Gods would suffer a backlash from directly involving themselves in the mortal world.

Seems like using their own powers to attack a mortal is against the law of the world.

From that alone, Rex is positive that Iseldra couldn\'t hurt him.

Additionally, his assumption was reinforced by the fact that Iseldra came to his pack in order to seek help in awakening the princess. Had the entire Lunirich Gods were not influenced by the backlash, then she should\'ve done this through other methods.

Seeking help from mortals shouldn\'t suit her taste, so Rex is confident about this assumption.

I\'m uncertain how the Yule Moon Lunirich God managed to dispatch an emissary to assail the others, but he appears to be an exception. Despite my provocation, Iseldra didn\'t seem to be planning to attack me, it seemed she was not exempt from the backlash like the Yule Moon Lunirich God.

Just as he was thinking, Iseldra turned to the side, clicking her tongue in displeasure.

"Nevertheless, this is where we part," She said, intending to leave.

But Rex was not going to let her go after she exploited his pack this easily, he grabbed her chin and stopped her in her tracks. "Get your filthy hands off of me, mortal!" Iseldra roared, trying to swat Rex\'s hand.

However, Rex was quick to grab her wrist and pinned her to the wall.

"I\'m not going to let you go after what you make my pack go through," Rex declared, a fierce glint in his eyes. He strongly pressed Iseldra against the wall and asserted, "Since you made the deal without me present, it\'s not valid. I\'ll introduce my condition: in return for awakening your princess, she must assist me in my fight with the Executor. Do we have an agreement?"

"Just you wait, Royal Black Prince. I\'ll make you pay f- Kahkk!"

"I said, do we have an agreement?"

Finding that Iseldra was still retaliating, Rex kneed her in the guts and strangled her neck.

Putting more strength into his hand, choking Iseldra in this mortal form, Rex said, "Make the princess vow an oath to her Origin that she\'s going to aid me. Forcing you to obey my wish would be impossible, but that doesn\'t apply the same to your princess"

"Unlike you, she\'s bound to the mortal world and can be influenced," He added sinisterly.

No matter how much he tries, there\'s no way he could force Iseldra.

But the princess, on the other hand, remained bound to the mortal realm, and an oath to her Origin would most likely be a foolproof method to force her to aid him. Rex doesn\'t want this exchange to end up like this, yet there doesn\'t seem to be another way.

Rex observed Iseldra\'s expression and found that she was still stubborn.

It didn\'t seem like she was going to accept.

Sighing inwardly, he elongated his sharp claws and poised them right above Iseldra\'s heart.

"Make your decision now, or I\'ll make your princess slumber again," Rex said with a menacing undertone, leaving no room for levity. "But this time, she will slumber for eternity. Know that if your resolve involves me not daring to do that, I advise you to reconsider,"

Stab!

Feeling a sharp pain, Iseldra\'s eyes widened, not because of the pain, but shock instead.

Looking downward, she could see Rex\'s claws were embedded into the center of her chest.

Also, she could feel his cold, steely claws grasping her heart directly.

Even though she wouldn\'t be affected by this, since she was possessing the princess\' body right now—when she went out of this body, the princess would undoubtedly die. An event that she could not allow, not when the princess had only just awakened.

"Many Lunirich Gods are already opposing me, and adding you to that list is barely a threat"

Upon hearing this, Iseldra gritted her teeth.

Since she was controlling the body, she couldn\'t retaliate with her divine energy, or else she would evoke another backlash. But even then, she still smiled dauntingly, "Don\'t think for a second that my princess is weak, she could still break free, and you\'re just a lunar clone"

"Really...?" Rex whispered, clutching her beating heart tighter.

He couldn\'t father how stubborn Iseldra could be, but considering that she was the coldest in the Lunirich Gods\' rank, at least in his opinion, he shouldn\'t be surprised. "Your princess had only awakened, and is probably still very vulnerable, seeing that she flinched at that Yule Moon-empowered Werewolf\'s final attack. But if you\'re so confident in her prowess, should we proceed and see how this will end?"

"If you are wrong, your princess will perish. As for me, well... it\'s inconsequential, isn\'t it? Just like you said, I\'m only a lunar clone" Rex taunted, dismantling Iseldra\'s stubbornness, brick by brick, and the cracks were starting to show.

Rex has all to win in this bout.

Even if something did go wrong, Kyran is already recovering neatly, and can still fight.

In case he falls, he could protect the others easily.

Knowing that even if he loses against the princess, she will definitely be in her last breath, the threat of the princess exacting her revenge on the others is basically non-existent. Kyran will easily dispatch her then.

On the other hand, Iseldra has everything to lose.

It\'s not like she could instantly replace the princess if she dies in this battle.

Despite her reluctance, palpable to see in her twitching expression, Iseldra finally sighed and without saying anything, left the princess\' body. She waved her white flag, "Hooh~ Leaving instantly out of embarrassment? I didn\'t know a Goddess could act cute" Rex muttered with a gradually widening grin.
