Rex raises his gaze when he heard the door to the castle was opened once again.

Likewise, his eyes glimmer with a reddish hue as he stares at the people that are entering the throne room with not but one nervous stride, coming from the woman at the center of the group who is holding her bleeding stomach in pain, limping through the floors.

As her blood dripped to the floor, a subtle wind catches it before disintegrating it.

Gelmar who was watching from the side felt the need to serve, and he kept Giana's dripping blood away from staining the royal place. Even if he doesn't have the necessary strength to help yet, small courtesy is a must to gain points in Rex's eyes.

Slowly raising her gaze, Giana was met with Rex's amused expression.

Not only was he leaning his head against his fist leisurely, his sitting posture didn't change showing that he viewed Giana as someone that can't threaten him, boasting the gap in their strength indirectly once again.

After giving a slight smirk at Giana, his eyes then shifted to the others.

Due to the amount of killings they did against the human army that traverse too deep into the Supernatural territory, the scents coming from them were thick of iron. Smeared of blood can also be seen around their bodies, especially their arms, and faces.

But the two were also surprised to find a change in the throne, yet they didn't speak about it.

"So, how's your hunt? Is it satisfying enough for the two of you to expose yourself to potential dangers?" Rex suddenly asked, his sharp eyes drilling into their eyes, trying to hear what they have to say for themselves.

Flunra clears his throat a little before stepping to the side, not intending to intervene.

Upon reaching the base of the throne, looking up at Rex who seems to be serious about the question, Adhara and Evelyn stopped. Before answering, Adhara kicks Giana on the back of her knees, forcing her to kneel right beside Prof. K.

"I find it unnecessary to alert you regarding such mundane problems" Adhara declared.

As she was the Female Alpha of the Silverstar Pack, it was also her responsibility to deal with certain problems that arise in the absence of Rex. In her eyes, there was no wrong as she believed that it was the right thing to do.

For a brief moment, a pause happened inside the throne room filled with complete silence.

Pondering for a moment, Adhara then added, "Also, you've already given us the earrings. It will protect us from the Witch. Won't it be better for us to get out more instead of cradling inside, showing to the Witch that we are afraid of her?"

"It's also a good way for us to train and adapt to our new realm" Evelyn added from the side.

Rex looks at the two for an uncomfortable amount of time in silence, enhancing the tension even higher before a smile appeared on his face. It was a genuine smile, "Good, it seems your decision is layered with thoughts and facts. For once, there were no emotions involved"

Upon hearing this, the two can't help but feel good about themselves.

Both of them rarely received a genuine compliment from Rex. Moreover, aside from complimenting their looks during intimate times, he hardly commend them for anything showing that he was not impressed most of the time.

At the top of their heads, Adhara and Evelyn can only remember one genuine compliment.

For Adhara, she remembered Rex compliment her the last time when she takes care of the cursed creatures while he was inside the First Trial. And for Evelyn, she remembered being complimented when she helped him deal with the Atkins Family immensely.

It feels good to receive yet another compliment from the man they love.

But then, their happiness was short-lived, "Well, that is until the two of you heard Giana's name and decided to confront her..." he added with a stern tone. Dealing with the human army is great. As for the latter, not so much.

Judging from their looks and inability to answer, Rex knows that he is right.

"Care to give me a reason why you should confront Giana yourselves? Do you take into account the fact that Prof. K might be lying? Or whether Giana is able to attack you and possibly even kill you if she wanted to? Or maybe, there's another ninth-rank realm Awakened in the shadow, waiting for the two of you to come?"

As Rex went through with his questions, the more they were robbed of words to answer.

While looking at the two that are now lowering their heads in thought, Rex leaned back and puts his index finger on his chin, "If it's do or die, then you can follow your emotions, your instincts. But this situation is not..."

Giana then glanced at Adhara and Evelyn that seemed to be troubled.

Ransacking her brain in search of a way to help them, she inhale deeply to try and help Adhara and Evelyn out of this situation but her words were stuck in her throat when she saw Rex's eyes were looking at her warningly.

In this place, he is the ruler, she must not act rashly or she will die.

From Giana's perspective, that is what Rex's eyes are saying to her, forcing her to be silent.

Now that he finished reminding the two to always be careful, especially in this kind of uncertain time, Rex's eyes finally landed on Giana as the smirk on his face came back, "I was not expecting to meet with you this soon, Giana..."

Rumble...

As he said that, the castle started shaking with his aura concentrated solely on Giana.

"Haarghh!" 

Under such immense pressure that felt like her entire body was being stabbed with a million daggers, and her bones were ground into dust, Giana laid both of her hands on the floor in a prostrating position before coughing blood severely.

It was so bad that Giana can feel her own spirit core trembling which hurts her insides.

Rex's immense energy as his King Mark appeared on his forehead was akin to a crushing mountain, pressing on top of her body, forcing the air around her to tremble in the inexhaustible might of the Werewolf that was referred to as the Royal Black Prince.

"What do I owe the pleasure of you searching for me...?" He added with a rasping tone.

Crack!

Prof. K saw the floor underneath Giana's knees were cracking under the pressure, yet it doesn't surprise him. But unlike him that doesn't know anything, Adhara, Evelyn, and Flunra gulp harshly at the sight of this.

Only they know how strong the structure of the castle was, it was unbreakable for them.

Yet, under the energy from Rex that is pressing down on Giana, the black marble floor shatters and slowly spreads its cracks. More blood gushed out of her mouth painfully. Once again, Giana felt the full brunt of Rex's power making light work of her despite her being a ninth-rank realm Awakened herself.

Not intending to beat around the bush, Giana quickly exposes her intention for coming here.

"I want to make a proposal on behalf of humanity!"

"Oh...?" Rex mused before he dissipate his crushing energy, letting Giana breathe and recover from the pressure. With a light movement, he crossed his legs and clasped his hands together eloquently. "What makes you think I will accept a proposal, from my parents' killer?"

"In case you forgot, we still have unfinished business" he added with a bone-chilling tone.

Likewise, the others also gave Giana a cold and murderous look as Rex said this. In any era from ancient times to the current era, killing the parents of the King is an unforgivable act deserving of torture, humiliation to the perpetrator's entire bloodline, and death.

Committing something like this is basically a guarantee to receive the most painful death.

Adhara, Evelyn, and Flunra were even surprised that Rex can act as calmly as this in front of his parent's murderer. But in a way, his calmness was infinitely more terrifying. In a way, he's a Werewolf, and he should act on basic animalistic instinct.

Yet, he was perfectly in control, giving a new layer of fear to his calmness.

Gritting her teeth that were grinding against each other in fear, Giana then forced out an answer, trying to not stutter, "I- I have informa-mation about the Executor, I- I know his weakness"

Upon saying this, Giana was expecting a change in Rex's expression, but there was none.

Rex looks at her with a stoic gaze as if her bargaining chip was nothing in front of him, and this puts Giana's mind in chaos, doubting whether Rex already knows of the Executor's weakness which would make her bargaining chip completely useless.

But contrary to her panicking mind, Rex was indeed surprised when he heard this.

'The Executor's weakness...? I need to know about this, that would be a game changer' Rex thought inside his head, excited to find out that he was going to learn the Executor's weakness which he would definitely use the system to focus on.

No matter what sort of power it was, he believe that he can master it with the System's help.

Although that is the case, there's no need for him to show his eagerness blatantly through his face. It would keep him in a strong position throughout this negotiation that is already overwhelmingly leaning toward his favor.

"Is that it...?" Rex asks, tilting his head a little. 

Gulping harshly at these words, Giana's expression slowly turned pale as the stake was not only her life but the entire human race. "If it's only about the Executor's weakness, we can find out about it without your help. Know that at this moment, the Silverstar Pack can absolutely go fine without you and your fellow humans' help"

"But, you on the other hand..." Rex paused and grinned, "desperately need our help"

Shrugging his shoulders nonchalantly, Rex then glanced at Flunra on the side before he wave his hand, "Break her legs and throw her back where she belongs, this conversation is over. I have no use for her"

"W-Wait!" Giana exclaimed, standing up and trying to move forward.

Just as her spine was straight and her leg was about to take a step forward, Flunra came out of nowhere, towering over her and put the tip of his claws right at the center of Giana's heart, "Don't you dare... take one more step and I'll carve your heart out of your body. Do you understand?"

Upon hearing this, Giana's lips quivered as her desperation started to surface on her face.

"I- I can also keep you updated about the Executor, anything that happens inside, I can report it straight to you. Please..." Giana wails, tears started ruining her face as her heart can't take the thought of humanity collapsing all because of her. "I beg you... I'll do anything so please, the entire human race doesn't need to pay for my mistake, let me solely pay for it!"

Rex looks at Giana's teary eyes without an expression, seemingly inspecting her.

From the side, Adhara and Evelyn cast a mocking smile as the two of them know that the crocodile's tears were not going to work for Rex. Nothing she says at this moment would evoke mercy from Rex.

'You will die painfully, Giana...'

'Rex is not going to fall for that, you're wasting your tears'

But as the two of them were ridiculing Giana inside their heads, a voice penetrates their ears which sparks their eyes to widen completely. Almost like a dream, they can't believe what they had just heard.

"Okay, I'll give you a chance. I am a magnanimous ruler and everyone deserves a chance"

Expecting something along the lines of brutalism and savagery, the others inside the throne room were completely taken aback by the words that came out of Rex's mouth. It was completely unexpected, they can't believe he said that not in a million years.

In reflex, the others turned their gazes at Rex who still looks nonchalant.

Adhara, Evelyn, Flunra, Prof. K, and even Gelmar felt the situation is surreal, each of them shared the same thoughts inside their heads. 'D-Did I heard it right? Or did he just give Giana a chance...?'
