Rex ca here expecting to subdue Kyran physically.
A Werewolf succumbing to their anger is a normal occurrence.
Most of the ti, pinning them down until the anger passes is the course of action.
Because of that, he was expecting to keep Kyran at bay.
It was his role as the Alpha to keep his pack mbers in check, and the System showed that by giving him a penalty for letting this occur—for letting Kyran succumb to his anger. Instead of what he expected, Kyran engaged in a different kind of battle.
He was calm earlier but he was now livid.
Maybe it was because of his decreased sanity but he felt that Kyran looked down upon him.
Of course, there was so truth to what Kyran was saying.
Rex has no right to say anything as once he went berserk, he also couldn't regain control.
It was hard for him to regulate his emotions.
Every single ti he went loose, innocents died, and that's his say on the matter amount to.
But the mont Kyran asked whether he was afraid of abandoning his Humanity or even was afraid of becoming a monster, was the mont he felt ridiculed. It was as if his determination was taken lightly and spat at.
Rex gripped Kyran's arm tightly and stared into his eyes.
He already towered over Kyran, not only was he bigger but he was also upright, not hunched.
No words ca out of his mouth but his mind was racing with thoughts.
From the mont the System got inside of and I decided to use it was the mont I had already made peace—with becoming a monster. My will remains strong. Maybe my goal had changed but the cost is still the sa.
In order to avenge my parents and kill Ruston, I knew I needed to beco a monster.
Now, in order to make sure everyone was safe, I knew I needed to beco a monster.
A different goal but the cost is the sa.
I'm afraid to make the people around , see differently...? Don't make laugh. How do you think I reached here? I don't care about what anyone thinks. As long as my goals are t—what's there to worry about others' thoughts?
Rex bared his fangs, growling at Kyran with a lethal light behind his crimson eyes.
Slash!
In a flash, Rex empowered his claws with the Executor Slash skill and sliced Kyran's arm that was penetrating through his stomach, completely. Blood gushed out of Kyran's severed arm, in slow motion, but Rex didn't stop there.
He enhanced his fangs with the Absolute Predominance Fangs skill and bit down hard.
Kyran's other arm was torn off savagely.
But that was still not enough.
Rex headbutted Kyran hard while still having the freshly severed arm in his mouth.
All of that happened in the ti it took Kyran's heart to beat.
Once he realized what had happened, a painful growl escaped him as the pain was imnse.
Both his arms were torn in an instant without him having the ti to react.
Ignoring his agony, Rex cast the Black Field Orko spell, summoning a singular black tentacle to push Kyran forward as he fell backward. Once Kyran stumbled forward—he was t with a skull-crushing punch that sent him flying away.
He crashed against a thick tree and bounced off of it.
Kyran grunted, his regenerative ability was kicking in and restoring his severed limbs.
But as he lifted his gaze, his breath got stuck in his throat.
Rex was looking at him with a maniacal smile, the air of bloodlust was thick around him.
"Becoming a monster?" Rex laughed, humorously, in a blood-crazed manner. He took out the arm that was stuck in his stomach and devoured it with one bite. "All of my side you saw was from the sidelines and maybe that is why you haven't realized it. Let give you a show you won't forget!"
"A view from being my enemy should make it clear. I already am a monster" He declared.
Upon hearing this, Kyran felt a paramount fear.
Being the target of the torrents of killing intent coming from Rex, his senses scread.
Most of the ti, Kyran's keen senses were an advantage, that would aid him in battle or any other situation. But at this mont—it beca a stark disadvantage. His keen senses picked up the primal danger coming from Rex.
It seeped into his skin, muscles, and bones, warning him that his life was at risk.
'Run!'
His inner voice thundered, loading the words with utmost urgency that struck Kyran's mind— like a hamr to the head. Cold sweat, oozes out. His teeth clattered in fear and with a small twitch of his brain, he turned and hid behind a tree.
Iris caught everything that had happened and her lips blood with a wry smile.
"He's the Alpha, alright..." She mused, shaking her head at Kyran.
Just then, however, Iris saw that Rex hadn't returned to normal—his aura was still flaring in a frenzy. His killing intent too, it was still choking the air in the area. Frowning, Iris sprang from the side and to the center.
"Your Majesty, it is done, you suppressed Lord Kyran" She lifted her hands.
Iris was trying to tell Rex to stop but it didn't seem to work.
As opposed to stopping, Rex's eyes burned with an even greater fla of bloodlust.
Seeing this, Iris took an uncertain step back.
'Did he also fall to the Demon Moon?' She frowned—sensing the situation was about to really escalate. 'No... He's still in there, fighting against his wrath. It's still not complete, I could stop him but I need to act fast!'
Rex was still stumbling forward, shaking his head a couple of tis.
It was obvious that he was trying to resist his anger.
Knowing that her window was tight, Iris leaped back, readied her bow, and pulled the string.
"Dark Nature Spell, Moon Bliss Arrow..."
As she drew back the string, chanting softly, a radiant dark-blue arrow took form.
She wrapped her legs on a tree branch, hanging upside down—and took aim at Rex.
Swoosh!
Iris let loose of the arrow as it pierced the air, creating a whistling sound like a missile, and hit Rex directly on his forehead, recoiling his head backward. Instead of piercing his forehead—it splashed into energy that seeped into his head.
Moving like a gust of wind, Iris leaped to another tree and fired another arrow.
She did it three tis, striking Rex's head from all four directions.
Once her last arrow struck its destination, she lowered her bow, "That should certainly do it"
Splash!
A glass-shattering sound echoed once all four arrows' energies seeped into Rex's head and once it did—Rex blinked and the bloodlust behind his eyes disappeared. He slowly tilted his head down and recalled what had happened.
"Erghh..." He grunted. "I can't believe that got to "
Landing gently like a feather, Iris ca down, "Are you alright now, Your Majesty?"
"Hmm, thanks to you it seed," Rex nodded, surprised inside that Iris could calm him down.
