Since her arrival here, Liliya has been seeking a chance to talk with Rex.

Alas, it was difficult to meet with him and have a meaningful conversation, especially given his unexplained absence without any sign of coming out of the castle for over a week. Despite Prof. K's efforts to convince her that he's not a totally bad person, she still wanted to see for herself.

Overall, she wanted to know about his vision of the future of the war of the world.

Luckily this night, she waited a little bit longer.

It bore fruit as she saw Rex descending from the hill and walking on an empty street.

Following him closely behind while pondering what she was going to say, she braced herself to talk with him but was confronted with an unexpected situation, the sight of Rex consumed in a sea of bloodlust.

"Rex...?"

Upon seeing his glaring red eyes, Liliya unconsciously stepped back.

Having his mind deteriorated, Rex slowly turned towards her with a baritone low growl.

"What's wrong with you? Snap out of it!"

Liliya tries to call out to him in the hope that he will regain back his senses.

But that proved to be a futile attempt, he started approaching her steadily while his body gradually bulged. His presence becomes more massive, it's unclear whether it's his body that grew bigger or due to the fear Liliya is experiencing right now.

Knowing that the situation is dangerous, she turns around and makes a run for it.

However, she abruptly stopped in her tracks.

Just before she could run away, Rex already blocked her way again, his movement was faster than her eyes could perceive. It was horrifyingly fast, yet she could only step back in defeat finding this natural.

If Rex could contend for the seat of power in this world, then she has no chance to escape.

"Please! Rex! It's me, Liliya!"

"Grrgh... Li- Liliya?"

Upon hearing Rex calling out her name, Liliya's eyes flickered with hope.

However, instantly after that, she saw him stumble due to a migraine inside his head before his expression went back to a vicious one. It seems he was in there, but he was trapped by the bloodlust plucking the sanity of his mind.

Lowering his stance slightly, Liliya's expression was drained from all colors.

It seemed like he was about to pounce, and there was no chance for her to defend herself.

Growl!

Rex unleashed a growl before the muscles in his legs surged, propelling him forward with clawed hands ready to tear her apart. However, in that critical moment, a figure tackled him from behind.

Crash!

Whipping her neck to the side,  Liliya realized that it was a woman, Evelyn.

But there were some changes to her.

Contrary to her usual appearance, she was now adorned in a mystifying white dress, her hair transformed from blazing red into silky white strands. It was her Luna form, exuding a vibrant purple energy, and it marked Liliya's first encounter with this manifestation of hers.

Sending him crashing away, Evelyn quickly made a distance between them.

"Liliya! What happened?!"

"I don't know, he suddenly becomes like that. I haven't even said anything!"

A moment before when Evelyn intended to return back inside the castle, a fiery sensation seared through her chest suddenly, her focus instantly turned to the city where she sensed that Rex was facing some sort of difficulty.

Due to that, she decided to check and found him attacking Liliya.

Rex stood back up and looked at them viciously, he still hadn't turned back to normal.

Upon seeing the look, Evelyn's brows dipped into a frown.

Having witnessed his frenzied states on previous occasions and even playing a pivotal role in soothing him as the Luna, she couldn't mistake that familiar look. 'He was perfectly fine earlier, what could've triggered this sudden change?'

'Does this have to do with my weakening...?' Evelyn pondered inwardly.

Not allowing a chance to ponder the unfolding situation, Rex dashed forward once more, enveloped in a crackling shroud of black lightning and crimson force, making him even faster, closing the gap between them in an instant.

In the blink of an eye, Evelyn's eyes widened finding Rex was already right in front of her.

A concentration of energy then manifests and cloaks his claws.

Clang!

Responding to the attack automatically, the Luna energy that her body emanates blocked his powerful attack like a sturdy shield. It reacted due to the fact that it was the Alpha that attacked her, which it recognized at odd automatically.

Gauging the power he musters, it seems he was actually trying to hurt Evelyn.

For a brief second, Evelyn felt her heart skipped a beat.

'T- This is really dangerous!'

Despite having seen Rex becoming frenzied, he has never been actively attacking the others.

Most of the time his frenzy was directed at the enemies that made him angry, Evelyn and the others have never been on the receiving end, they always acted more like a preventer in those scenarios when Rex lost it.

But this time, Evelyn was at the receiving end of his bloodlust.

Also, knowing the power that he possesses only serves to intensify the beating of her heart.

Swoosh!

Discovering his initial assault was blocked by the Luna energy, Rex pressed on relentlessly. He executed a swift, spinning motion, infusing his body with a surge of red force, delivering a devastating kick that sent Evelyn hurtling to the side.

She crashes into a nearby building with a bone-rattling impact.

If not for the material of the buildings in Dargena City, the building would've been destroyed.

However, a big crack only appeared on the building wall.

Rex then turned his gleaming red eyes back to Liliya who was still rooted in her spot, he then charged again but found the purple energy binding his legs before it swirled up and shackled his entire body in place.

Roar!!

A mighty roar escaped his mouth, his strength started to gradually increase.

Not a precious second to spare, Evelyn swiftly rebounded from the assault, launching herself back into the fray. She closed in on Rex, seizing his face with both of her hands. Her eyes were ablaze with a radiant and intense shade of purple, locking onto Rex's red eyes.

"Rex! Wake up! You're in the city, regain control!"

Evelyn tries to overwhelm his mind in an attempt to help him escape the bloodlust.

Deciding to help, Liliya pointed her hand toward Evelyn and put an enhancing mark on her.

But that proves to have little effect the next second.

Sensing the overwhelming pressure of the Luna energy constricting him, Rex swiftly transformed into his Werewolf form. At that moment, Evelyn watched as her own Luna energy stretched to its limit before she was compelled to retreat.

Roar!

Blitz!

Casting the blitzing cry skill, he managed to break free from the shackle.

It was then another figure landed behind Rex.

Ugrok who sensed the commotion came and saw the fight, he quickly hugged Rex's body from the back to restrain him. Not knowing what had happened to cause this, he decided to do what he thought was right.

During that moment, some of the others also came.

Linthia, Dindora, and Gelmar who seemed to have come back from training arrived.

"Gelmar! Gather the guards and establish a secure perimeter around this vicinity. Ensure no onlookers witness this incident, not even a glimpse of it!" Evelyn quickly instructed, her tone was resolute and demanding.

Upon hearing this, Gelmar nodded his head, "Yes, my Lady"

Once Gelmar departed to carry out his instructions, her focus then shifted to the two others who stood there quaking in their boots. They were gripped by terror as they beheld Rex, his eyes blazing a menacing crimson that emitted a disturbing amount of killing intent.

One that could only be developed through killing an unimaginable amount of living beings.

"Linthia, Dindora, help me subdue Lord Rex!"

Despite feeling their throat becoming dry at the prospect of fighting lord Rex, the very person that even the likes of Kings and Queens need to regard with the utmost respect, the two forced themselves to get ready to help Evelyn.

Evelyn knew that this could escalate, and they needed to move fast.

For now, the rampaging Rex remains within a threshold where he can still be subdued and brought back to his senses. However, with every passing second, the opportunity to do so diminishes, risking a potential catastrophe.

'If he activates even one of his King Mark, it's going to be over...'

Back to the fight, Ugrok was still restraining Rex with his burly and bigger body.

However, he realized that he had overestimated his own physical strength compared to Rex. A red crescent moon mark appeared on his forehead which instantly changed the course of the fight entirely.

Enhanced by the power of the berserker's curse, Rex overpowers Ugrok easily.

Roar!!

In an instant, he manages to break free.

Rex didn't stop there and quickly grasped Ugrok by the head before throwing him away.

Crash!

A painful grunt escaped Ugrok's mouth as his body slammed onto a nearby building to the left, cracking the side of the building. Before anyone could react, Rex already shot like a bullet and landed a drop kick at Ugrok, blasting him through the wall.

Boom!

Growl!

Both of them blasted onto the other street on the other block.

Fortuitously, they found themselves on another abandoned street, far removed from the crowd that was primarily congregating in the city's northern quarters. Dargena City is quite massive, and it was a blessing in this instance.

If there are people here then it's going to get ugly really quick.

Dashing into the hole in the building, the others quickly follow after to help Ugrok.

Upon reaching the other street, Dindora suppressed the fear and dread she was feeling for having to fight someone as strong as Rex and slammed her hands to the ground powerfully, infusing a gush of nature energy.

A flash of green energy radiated from her eyes as she chanted a spell.

"Guardians of Nature!"

Crack!

Suddenly, a green formation appeared on the ground with the sway of a powerful wind.

Rex scans his eyes around and finds nature projections in the shape of a guardian of nature that appeared around him and throws their viney ropes towards him, trying to restrain his limbs from moving anywhere.

Maneuvering quickly, Rex avoided these ropes skillfully. 

But the spell from Dindora acted as a perfect distraction for Linthia to help out from the side.

Seizing the opportunity while Rex remained distracted, Linthia took a moment to steady her breath. Her eyes then shimmered with ominous dark energy as she thrust her hand forward, casting a spell from a safe range, capitalizing on this fleeting moment.

"Spirit Binding! Paralyze!"

Swoosh!

Harnessing the power of her evolved bloodline, Linthia tries to bind the spirit inside of Rex.

But in the next second, her eyes widened.

"Eh...?"

Linthia could feel the binding she cast wrapped around Rex's spirit, however, she suddenly felt an excruciating pain being transferred to her. It made her entire body gradually fall and curl on the ground as her internal organs were shaken.

"Huaargh!"

A disturbing amount of blood gushed out of her mouth suddenly.

Upon grazing the periphery of Rex's spirit, an overwhelming backlash struck Linthia, forcing her to this state in sheer shock. Blood trickled from her eyes and ears, a testament to the sheer, impervious strength of the spirit she tried to influence.

Despite already being considerably stronger, she was still no match for lord Rex.

"Hargh... Hargh..." Linthia breathed heavily. "His spirit is too strong, I can't help..."

On the other hand, whilst the nature projections kept attacking, Ugrok, Evelyn, and Linthia also tried their hardest to get close and restrain him. But none of them managed to get even remotely close to him.

No matter the openings, they were completely outclassed by Rex.

Evelyn has already used her elemental prowess on top of her Luna form, the others also used their all in this fight, and yet, it was not enough. No matter the tricks or strategies they used, Rex's combat abilities and knowledge far surpassed them.

Rex didn't even cast a single skill and he still obliterates them.

Like flowing water, he could change offense and defense perfectly. Even though he was in this state of mind, he was still an expert. It was almost as if his body did this automatically.

Blitz!!

Kaboom!

Descending from the sky was a powerful black lightning strike that smoked the entire place. When the smoke receded, everyone was either lying or kneeling on the ground in pain with Rex standing at the center.

His eyes then flash with red light as he intends to continue his onslaught.

Just as he was on the verge of executing his next move, a figure descended from the sky, touching down directly before him. It was a figure that rekindled a spark of hope in Evelyn's eyes as she saw no notion of winning earlier.

But now she can, with this figure, they might be able to pull it off.

Standing with an imposing aura was Flunra, his primeval aura clashed against Rex fiercely.

"How about you stop right there, Lord Rex..."
