The Invincible Full-Moon System

On the side of the table, Robert is also sitting comfortably while putting a napkin on his lap.

Realizing that Rex is looking at him, Robert turns his head and gives him a small smile. But his attention then quickly shifted to the side before excitement flashed in his eyes, just like a dehydrated man seeing a speck of water.

Glancing to the side he saw his mother, Mrs. Greene walking with two plates in her hands.

Immediately after she enters the room the fragrant smell of food overflowed the entire place, even Rex can\'t help but take a huge whiff and swallowed his saliva harshly. Although he was rarely home, he always anticipated Mrs. Greene\'s cooking whenever he got back home.

Nothing beats your mother\'s cooking they say, and that really applies to Rex.

"Here, I\'ve cooked something special today, cake is probably not your type so I make this. I\'m grateful that the military gives you half a day off after missing so much of your special day. Well, you\'re a part of a special unit after all, but today is your birthday and we have a chance to celebrate it! So, happy birthday my dear", Mrs. Greene said with a bright smile while putting a plate in front of Rex before kissing him on his head.

Upon hearing this, Rex was quite surprised, "My birthday... that\'s right, it\'s my birthday today"

Since he has been under rigorous and strict training in the Special Reconnaissance Unit which doesn\'t give him and the other personnel any breaks like a regular soldier, and Rex missed a couple of his birthdays because of that.

Well, he doesn\'t really like celebrating his birthday but his parents wanted it, so he doesn\'t mind.

Looking at the well-cooked steak that gives him a strongly aromatic and rich scent even though he doesn\'t lean closer to try and smell it, without a doubt this steak that his mother cooked would be something that he wouldn\'t forget.

Rex feels the urge to dive into the steak rising, but he kept his cool and waits.

It doesn\'t take long before five plates with the same steak on them was placed neatly on the table, but this makes Rex frown as he looks at Mrs. Greene, "Why are there five plates? There\'s only three of us", he asked.

But this makes Mrs. Greene chuckle, she seems to be hiding something.

Even Robert expresses the same way as Mrs. Greene, and this makes Rex even more curious before Mrs. Greene finally said, "Well, there will be guests joining us soon. It\'s a secret so you have to be patient and wait for them to come"

Upon hearing this, Rex was confused as he doesn\'t have any friends or anyone close to him.

Just then the doorbell rings, catching their attention.

"Speaking of the guests, here they are!", Mrs. Greene said before standing up and heading to the door, she opened the door and talked for a bit with the supposed guests before two people came inside which made Rex\'s eyes widen.

It feels like a surreal reverie, but the two people are standing right in front of his eyes.

"Mom?! Dad?!", Rex exclaimed finding that the guest Mrs. Greene was talking about earlier is none other than his birth parents. They both are looking at him with toothed smiles, and their eyes are sparking a feeling of longing.

At that exact moment, Rex wanted to stand up and hug the two of them.

Every single day inside the military has not been spent with him thinking about them, they have a special place in his heart that wouldn\'t be replaced by anyone. It was then he realized that he can\'t stand up from his seat.

Looking down at the seat, Rex grips the edge of the chain wanting to push himself up.

But no matter how much he tries he really can\'t stand up from his seat, and soon enough his hands started moving on their own without him being able to stop them. Grabbing the knife and fork on the side of the plate, he rests his hand on the table as his birth parents take their seats.

Rex\'s arms started to tremble violently as he tries to move his arms, but it was still futile.

Silence covered the entire dining table as his birth parents and his foster parents are looking at him expectantly, they kept beautiful smiles on their faces while watching him struggle, "P-Please! Let me go! Mom! Dad!!", Rex shouted trying to ask help from his parents.

None of them replied though as the light inside the dining room started blinking.

Due to the sudden blinking Rex can hear his own thumping heart inside his ears and filtering the silence of the dining table, the thoughts of darkness are like arrows stabbing his skin. As if the lights are reacting to his fear, it started to become rapid.

Click!

Click!

Click!

While this is all happening Rex kept looking left and right at his parents with widened eyes.

Something ominous is coming and he can feel it clearly inside his skin and bones, it was a chilling evil that wanted to destroy this happy moment. Just as he uses every ounce of strength in his body to lift his arms off of the dining table, the dining room suddenly turns dark.

Upon seeing the absolute darkness that hinders his vision, everything went silent.

Only Rex\'s rapid and short breathing can be heard inside the darkness that wraps his body in a tightening grip, it went on for a solid ten seconds before out of nowhere, something warm hits him from the side.

Splash!

Click!

Rex blinks his eyes as the light comes back and illuminates the dining room.

Looking down at the dining table he finds that the plate and beautiful white tablecloth was not white anymore, it was stained with the color crimson that also splattered onto his face and body. For a second he forgot to take his breath as he slowly looks to his left.

What greeted him on the left was his birth parents\' headless corpse with blood gushing out.

From that alone he confirmed that he got showered by his own birth parents\' blood from head to toe, the thick stench of blood penetrated his nose as his expression threatens to break, "M-Mom... Dad...", he mutters with his trembling voice.

A tear drizzled down his cheek as he saw the headless corpse of his birth parents.

Even though his tears have dried up from crying alone in the Noob Box without anyone knowing, a few of them started to gather which makes his eyes watery. Rex then slowly turns his head to the other side before he saw Mrs.Greene and Robert floating.

Raising his gaze he finds that both of them are lifted from the ground by their napes.

Standing behind them is Giana in her Gladiator Form, grabbing Mrs. Greene and Robert from behind. Etched on her face was a devious smile that was filled with murderous intent, she looks insane and ready to kill.

"No... please don\'t do it... not them too, please", Rex started pleading in tears.

But his eyes bare witness to the arcane mana pulsating slowly into her arms, and this makes Rex keeps on begging, wanting her to let go of Mrs. Greene and Robert right now and just kill him. It was of course, futile.

Without even blinking, Rex witnessed Giana twisting their necks brutally.

"Please, let them go! Giana!! Let them go!!", Rex shouted as the veins all over his body started to contract as he tries to stand up, but the strength inside his body instantly vanished when he heard a loud bone-cracking sound as their necks bent unnaturally.

From start to finish, Rex watches this happening covered in blood without blinking.

"NO!!!!"

Rex shouted at the top of his lungs before the entire dining room turns dark once again, his shout started to echo powerfully as he feels the darkness spinning. Inside this darkness, he\'s still unable to move as the moment before keeps on replaying inside his head.

~

"NO!!!"

Out of nowhere, Rex\'s eyes jolted open as he instantly grab the neck of the figure in front of him.

With his eyes glowing red brightly and filled with killing intent, he slammed the figure on the tree powerfully before tightening his grip like a lunatic. Now that he can move again, he would definitely stop Giana that wanting to kill his foster parents.

But then another person grabbed his arm from the side, "Rex! Stop it, you\'re crushing her neck!!"

Growl!

Instead of answering Rex tightens his grip even more as his body slowly turns into his Werewolf form, "Giana! Why would you kill them?!! They\'ve done nothing wrong to you, and yet you killed them in cold blood?!!", he shouted and bares his sharp fangs.

Upon seeing this, two other figures grab him from behind, trying to pull him away.

Flunra, Kyran, and Adhara are the ones trying to pull Rex away and help Gistella that is being choked on the neck right now, she feels pity and was trying to check on Rex since he seems to be having a nightmare but that resulted in this situation.

Even though it was three against one, pulling Rex away proves to be a very hard feat.

It was then that Flunra decided to engrave an ancient rune on Rex which makes him growl angrily, and Flunra then use this chance to jump and wrap his arm around Rex\'s neck and pulls him down.

Looking at the two cocoons, Flunra forces Rex\'s head to look at them.

"Rex! The one you\'re holding is not Giana, it\'s Gistella! Snap out of it, your deceased parents are watching. Don\'t sully their sacrifice by being like this!", Flunra shouted while desperately trying to hold Rex\'s head to force him to look at the two wind cocoons.

Although he was still struggling, his glaring red eyes are looking straight at the two wind cocoons.

Despite his mind right now being clouded by the blurry thirst for killing that shade his vision completely red, the sight of the two wind cocoons ignited something within him as his crimson vision slowly becomes clearer and clearer.

In just a moment the thirst for killing disappeared as Rex regained back his consciousness.

Realizing that Flunra is currently wrapping his arm around his head, Rex can\'t help but frown, "Flunra? What are you doing?", he asked as he was confused to see him doing something like this.

Flunra glanced at Rex and finds that he was already out of his daze.

Letting go of Rex\'s head, Flunra steps back before Rex slowly straightens his back, his eyes then look down and find that he\'s in his Werewolf form with Kyran and Adhara hugging him from the back. It sparks a frown on his face, "What happened?", he asked.

"Let go of Gistella first", Adhara said when she saw that Rex has regained back his mind.

Upon hearing this Rex\'s eyes darted to the right and saw that his hand is clenching Gistella\'s neck tightly, he hurriedly let go of her as she slide to the ground, coughing a couple of times while holding her throbbing neck.

Flunra went over to Gistella and immediately checked on her.

If it was any longer than her neck might\'ve been broken right now, that clench from Rex was very strong even though he\'s weakened right now. But thankfully the situation didn\'t escalate to that.

Glancing back to Adhara, Rex raises his eyebrows wanting an answer.

Adhara looks at this before she can\'t help but sigh, he must\'ve really been out of it for him to actually didn\'t realize what he was doing earlier, "You had a nightmare, and you mistook Gistella for Giana and almost killed her because of that. You\'re tired, Rex... you need proper rest", she said lightly.

But this makes Rex widen his eyes, he can\'t believe he actually did that.

"R-Really...? I didn\'t even realize it"
