The Invincible Full-Moon System-Chapter 1113: The Climax Begins (1)

It was at the time of the Test of Acknowledgement that everything started.

Being extremely wounded after receiving the Storm Prince's attack, fueled by the backer of a God, Rex was extremely torn and wounded. He managed to survive barely thanks to the help of the Countess, and also the intervention of Elder Rancaladra and Elder Enima.

He even teetered on using the Invincible item fearing that he might die.

Fortunately, he got help and survived the ordeal.

As opposed to going back home to recuperate, Rex traveled back into the creek and went to the Symposium of Upper Divinities again. Earlier when he confronted the Elders, he obtained an alert from the System that informs him of what he was looking for.

Rex had another reason for confronting the Elders aside from making a declaration.

Upon purchasing the information about the Fifthborn, Rex mostly learned about his history.

There, he learned about the existence of the Golden Slayer weapon.

One of the most motivating factors for all Executors was the Golden Slayer, a sacred weapon that belongs to the Supreme One and is also said would be passed down to an Executor who was deemed worthy enough to wield it.

Naturally, the competition among the Executors became extremely fierce.

Each one of them vies to wield the Golden Slayer as it's the symbol of strength and authority.

Being chosen to wield it is the greatest honor they could achieve in their lives.

All of the Executors immediately set out to make a name for themselves, battling and utilizing the Supernaturals' existence, as a stepping stone for their fame. One trounced an entire race, while another conquered an entire continent and spread control.

It was one of the worst times for the Supernaturals to exist.

But amongst the Executors, there was one that didn't participate in this game of conquest. freewebnσvel.cøm

Unsurprisingly, the Fifthborn didn't do anything and stayed in the background.

He tried for some time to spread his name—but compared to the feats that his brothers were doing, it was simply futile for him to try and compete with them. Doing so would be an all-out waste of time, and he stopped trying after a bit.

Even though he stopped, the desire to possess the Golden Slayer was burning inside him.

In his spare time, the Fifthborn views the Golden Slayer from afar, dreaming of wielding it.

Despite it would only happen in the dreamland, he couldn't help himself but hope.

Hope that somehow he was the one to succeed Golden Slayer.

Given the narration from the System was vivid—and there was even an accompanying video illustrating the life of the Fifthborn, Rex knew that the Fifthborn would be aiming to claim the Golden Slayer for himself.

Since his brothers were not around, the Fifthborn would believe that he was now worthy.

In the new era, he was the only one who was worthy.

Knowing that fact, Rex opted to revolve his plan around the Golden Slayer.

A supreme weapon that was hidden inside the Symposium.

Scanning the Symposium of Upper Divinities with the System, he easily found the weapon.

Rex found a subtle glow coming from the high seat he was sitting on earlier.

It came from the center of the seat's body, and when Rex reached his hand toward it, a gold symbol made of an unknown energy that felt different and more powerful than anything Rex had ever felt appeared with golden cracks surrounding it.

He didn't hesitate to touch it with his index finger lightly.

Upon feeling the embrace of a living being, the symbol reacted and grasped Rex's finger.

Swoosh!!

Suddenly, the symbol's influence spread and infiltrated Rex's body.

Rex's eyes widened as he could see the golden cracks around the symbol shared its essence—forcefully forming the same golden cracks across the surface of his skin. For a moment, he was in silent shock as he didn't know what was happening.

But eventually, the effect died down and the golden cracks disappeared once again.

Feeling that he was freed from the unknown energy's grasp, he retreated back several steps.

"Now what...?" Rex uttered lightly, feeling the wounds across his body throbbing.

At that moment, his gaze drifted toward the center of the round table where a brilliant golden glow appeared on his peripheral and caught his attention. As he turned, Rex saw a blade that slowly came out from what appeared to be a storage dimension.

It emanates an aura of intense radiance of power, one that surpasses anything Rex ever felt.

Judging from its appearance alone, he could be sure that this is the Golden Slayer.

A smile crept to his face as now that he found what he was looking for, his plan proceeded.

Since the Golden Slayer is a two-piece weapon that would not exhibit more than a fraction of its power without the complete set—his plan was to corrupt and alter its nature by imprinting himself on the blade piece so that it recognizes him as the owner.

Relying on the System, he was able to do exactly that.

He did this so that when the Executor came with the gem piece, it would be rendered futile.

As Rex imprinted himself on the blade piece, the dynamic would change.

Effectively, the Golden Slayer would have two owners.

If there was more than one owner, its power wouldn't work either.

Naturally, the Executor could undo this by vanquishing his presence from the blade piece.

But in the heat of the moment and also the looming presence of death—expecting him to be able to discern that the blade piece recognized Rex as its owner was asking too much. That was what Rex relied on, and it happened exactly as he predicted.

Even then, his plan was not over.

Meanwhile, back to the present, the Executor was sweating profusely out of fear.

'He negated the Golden Slayer?!' He screamed inside his head.

The Executor's eyes widened in disbelief, as he witnessed Rex easily catch the sharp edge of the Golden Slayer with his bare hand, defying all expectations. Despite pouring everything he had into that attack—combining the power of the Golden Slayer and also his chaos elements, Rex caught his attack.

Despite the Blood Devourer on the other hand, Rex opted to use his bare hand instead.

Visibly, it could be seen that the Golden Slayer's energy was negated.

"This is the end, Fifthborn. Accept it. You're at death's door..."

Rex, firmly clasping the Golden Slayer with his bare hand, uttered—his cursed energy oozing from his core and making its way into his arm—spreading its corruption to the Golden Slayer slowly like a slithering serpent.

In the next second after that, the Golden Slayer suddenly tilted down to the ground.

Just like earlier, the Executor felt that it got heavier again.

However, compared to earlier, he couldn't lift the Golden Slayer at all now even with his all.

At this point, the Executor's mind swirled in utter distress as he still couldn't understand how Rex was able to do all of this. His gaze then fell upon the Supremacy of One gem, and found that Rex's cursed energy was converging around it ominously.

Only then that he sucked in a cold breath as he realized what was happening.

Now the Executor realized what Rex meant by chasing a false hope.

It turned out that the Golden Slayer was already recognizing Rex as its owner from the start.

Achieving the ninth epiphany didn't only bolster the influence he had on the blade piece—but it also helped Rex in overwriting the Executor's imprint on the gem piece. Focusing his cursed energy fully on the Supremacy of One, he managed to overwrite the Executor completely.

Upon his success, the Golden Slayer instantly became heavier.

"Do you understand now, Fifthborn?" Rex asked hauntingly, the sinister grin still on his face.

Snapping out of his daze, "You're cheating! This is unfair!" the Executor gritted his teeth, and pointed his finger angrily at Rex. Desperation began to ooze clearly through his face. "Unfair! Return my ownership of the Golden Slayer right now!! I'm the only one who's worthy, you are not!"

Rex tilted his head slightly when he heard this, scoffing at the Executor in ridicule.

"Unfair...? Isn't the strong doesn't make excuses?" He asked back.

Pointing around the place, Rex continued, "Don't show a pitiful sight now—Fifthborn. Do you have no shame? Your ancestors are watching you, and at least—you should show conviction in your last moments and accept your fate"

Listening to this, the Executor's expression contorted as he began to break down.

Observing Rex's imposing presence—which seemed to loom larger in the Executor's eyes as though it could envelop the entire world, unaffected by the radiant golden energy emanating from the Golden Slayer, the Executor instinctively began to retreat.

Rex stood as the solitary, absolute shadow, even greater than the Executor himself.

And that shadow terrifies the Executor greatly.

"Stood your ground, Fifthborn—the climax is about to begin" Rex said as he pointed skyward.

Upon hearing this, the Executor looked up before his pupils dilated.

Something was happening in the sky.

Meanwhile, the Witch of Chaos was sprinting away while carrying Edward over her shoulder.

Just a moment ago, she had already discerned the threat looming in the sky and wasted not a single second in withdrawing from the vicinity. Alerting Lyra—and the Shapeshifters to the imminent danger, she ordered them to evacuate Dead Man's Creek quickly.

If they wished to stay alive, then they should be listening to her order and evacuate.

Despite their doubts, Lyra decided to follow the Witch of Chaos.

Even though she only took orders from Rex, she couldn't ignore her gut feeling to retreat.

Similarly, seeing that the Shapeshifters were beginning to retreat at the order of the Witch—Sebrof, Giana—and the other ninth-rank realm Awakened mirrored their actions. But instead of prioritizing their own escape, the ninth-rank realm Awakened positioned themselves at the edges of the army, forming a triangular formation with Sebrof and Giana at the very front.

Amassing an intense amount of spirit energy, they cast a combined spell in a union.

Utilizing the might of their Gladiator Forms, they collectively invoked a Pneuma Spell of their own, weaving together elemental energies to erect a triangular barrier. Flames danced along gusts of wind, while earth and water melded seamlessly, and cracking bolts of lightning that sourced to Sebrof himself adorned its surface, forming a formidable defense.

Because of their collective Pneuma Spell, their advance was unblockable.

Not one of the Chaos monsters was able to stop them much less piercing the barrier.

Moving their legs as quickly as they could, the army coursed through the creek, their strides quickened by the promise of the distant light marking the creek's edge. Out of all of them, it was the Witch of Chaos who pierced out of the creek first.

Even though she managed to get out, she didn't stop sprinting away.

The Witch of Chaos didn't even check whether the army was out or not, she kept on going.

Swoosh!!

Passing the Vampires and the Demons who were near the creek—she also warned them of what was about to come. Maltrox and Carmilla exchanged looks before both could feel the Shapeshifter's army heading toward them fast.

Even the ground was shaking as they approached.

It was only then that the two realized that the Witch of Chaos was not joking.

"Evacuate! Abandon the fight and follow the Witch!"

Upon hearing the command, the remaining Vampires and Demons instantly darted away.

Following their leads, the Supernatural Army also began to retreat—leaving behind their fight and prioritizing their safety. Even the remaining Human Army did the same thing, they did not know what was happening, but seeing their enemies run away gave them a bad feeling.

Regardless of what was happening, it's better to follow the mass first for safety precaution.

Just then, as soon as the last Shapeshifters got out, the sky sparkled.

KABOOM!!!

Out of nowhere, a cataclysmic white beam descends down from the sky and hits hard.

It was akin to a smite from heaven itself to punish the world.

Despite the world-shattering power displayed by some individuals in this fierce battle—there was a limit, as to how long the world would let them continue their rampage. As the supreme weapon appeared, Mother Earth had had enough.

And in return, the world aimed to erase the entities that caused this anomaly in energy level.
