The Invincible Full-Moon System-Chapter 1181: The Countess’ Situation
Rex initially thought the Countess was exposed to Chaos energy—when the Fifthborn teleported him into the realm of chaos, but he remembered, that the Countess quickly teleported him out of there so the exposure shouldn't be severe.
It was mere seconds, and the Countess shouldn't be corrupted because of that.
He would be damned to think that the Countess is that weak.
No matter how powerful the chaos realm was, the Countess was a literal Goddess.
However, minutes later, Rex was exposed to the realm of chaos again.
A reckless move from him as he saw his best friend, Edward, dissolve into Chaos energy.
Out of shock and desperation—Rex insisted the Countess open a portal back into the chaos realm. She already warned him against doing that, especially, since her divine energy was in low reserve after breaking the First Breath's limiter.
But Rex doesn't listen and demands her stubbornly which she eventually complies with.
Every person around Rex moved back when the portal was opened, but not him.
Rex stood his ground—and even peered, into the realm of chaos, without any regard for what the side effects might be. He was emotional, and desperate. Now he realized that there were side effects to doing that. Find adventures at m_v l|e-NovelFire.net
As it turns out, it was the Countess who protected him from the exposure of chaos.
She used herself to shield Rex from the corruption of chaos.
It was not the low reserve of divine energy that left the Countess in this state, it was his own stubbornness. "If it was truly that bad, why didn't you ignore me? If you had—there would've been nothing I could do to force you to open the portal"
He couldn't help but curse the Countess in his mind for doing what he wanted.
As opposed to obeying him, she should've ignored him since she knew better than him.
Even though he would probably be sour about it, at least she wouldn't end up like this.
"Didn't I tell you...?" Suddenly, the Countess spoke as she groaned weakly, forcing the words out of her mouth against her depleted strength. "I will support you however I can—that is my one promise to you"
Upon hearing this, Rex clenched his jaw, touched by what the Countess does for him.
Seems like she really meant what she said back then.
Fortunately, the System came to the rescue at the right moment when Rex was lost.

Rewards: 5x Instant level tickets, 30 Divine Upgrades, 50 Million Gold, and 1x Banished Dark Moon Ability Amalgamation.
...
One look at the sudden quest and Rex knew that this was going to be very hard to complete.
First of all—Rex has never gained an instant level ticket which was huge, as he needs a really vast amount of experience points to reach the next level. Secondly, 30 Divine Upgrades are a lot considering that he only gained 20 Divine Upgrades from the System being upgraded.
He could learn a lot of skills using that many Divine Upgrades.
50 million gold is also tempting, but Rex is more interested in the last reward.
Just like the instant level ticket, he never got this Banished Dark Moon Ability Amalgamation.
I have the Spirit Amalgamation spell, and it's used to combine spells together to create more powerful spells. So, for this—will it allow me to combine two moon abilities or more, from the Banished Dark Moon skill tree?
Even the thought of gaining that made his body tremble in excitement.
Rex was imagining a combined moon ability between Brutal Impulse and Seize of Twilight.
If there's such an ability like that then his attack would be devastating.
Anyone who got hit by this new moon ability would not be able to block the attack, the effect of the Seize of Twilight would seize their defending limb while the Brutal Impulse would strike the defenseless target hard.
Such a thing would make him extremely strong against new, unsuspecting opponents.
But then again, that was not possible.
Combining Brutal Impulse, with Seize of Twilight is impossible since they stem from different full moons. However—he could find a comparable skill to Brutal Impulse, within the Banished Dark Moon skill tree and merge it with Seize of Twilight.
Point being is that the reward is extremely good, so the sudden quest should be very hard.
Looking at the requirements, Rex frowned as most of them needed to be found.
On top of that, he didn't even know where to find any one of them.
System, is there a clue that could help me find these items? I don't know where to find them. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
<Does the user want to purchase all locations of the required items for 200 million gold?>
200?! Are you sure you didn't accidentally add a zero in there?
<Negative, the price for all locations is 200 million gold>
<It's advised to search the items independently as the cost to purchase anything related to a Goddess is amplified, multiple times. Despite the cost is high—it doesn't mean the location is extremely hard to find>
Upon hearing this, Rex's eyebrows dipped into a contemplating frown.
Because of the System's advice, he became hopeful.
Out of the three required items, there should be some that are near Dargena City.
Since the Second Breath occurred—the likelihood of finding these necessary items, near the city has significantly increased, compared to before. "But then again, where can I find them? A Divine Chalice, A Lotus of Lunar Heart, and even a Phoenix Feather. I didn't even know that phoenixes were real"
Just then, however, a voice rang inside his head.
[What do you need all of that for?]
It was Amanir, he seemed to recover faster than Devo.
However, Rex's eyes gleamed with a hopeful light, when he remembered one thing about this lunar spirit of his. Amanir, aren't you a thief? I remember Devo calling you a thief in your initial encounter with him. Do you know where to find any of the items I mentioned?
[I am not a thief if I stole it from another thief!] Amanir rebutted, defending himself.
Rex couldn't help but chuckle at the hypocrisy.
All this time, I knew that you are a spoiled brat and is also timid. So now I'm curious, what is it that made you steal from others? Surely you are afraid of the consequences, especially when you steal from strong spirits.
Even though he was getting off track, he wanted to know the reason.
It's Amanir, he couldn't believe that Amanir had the guts to steal without a legitimate reason.
[Don't be mistaken,] Pausing for a second Amanir then continued. [It's not me who should be blamed, those items that I stole should be blamed. All of them asked me to take them when I passed—the item and the Spirit God himself spoke that I was meant to have them]
Upon hearing this, Rex couldn't help but scoffed out of ridiculousness.
Just say that you couldn't help yourself, don't act like you can talk to objects.
Anyway, do you know where to find the items I mentioned?
[I know one, the Phoenix Feather, I know a collector who is in possession of a feather]
Know? So this collector is a spirit too?
[Yep, he's a spirit alright. A strong one at that]
Who is it? I need to know, I really need the Phoenix Feather.
[It's the Spirit Emperor, he has one or maybe a couple in his treasury]
Rex could not help but have his eyes flared open—when he heard this. His eyes, seemed like they were about to come out of their sockets. The Spirit Emperor? Amanir, are you really that stupid to try stealing from the Spirit Emperor?
Since Amanir knew this then he must've sneaked into the Spirit Emperor's treasury.
It was a miracle that he was alive and became Rex's spirit after such stupidity.
[How am I stupid?! I almost got the Self-Replenishing Snacks! If only I had one more minute—I would've successfully got it. But that stupid of an emperor came to take his diary and I have no choice but to leave! Just like that, my a hundred years plan failed]
Amanir recalled that moment, and he couldn't help but feel his blood boiling.
He was extremely close to getting that Self-Replenishing Snacks.
But bad luck struck him in his gut at the last minute.
On the other hand, Rex was left completely speechless—not only had Amanir, dared to steal from the Spirit Emperor himself, but Amanir had also meticulously planned this for a hundred years—all to obtain self-replenishing snacks.
From the name alone, Rex could already tell what it was, and that was surely not worth it.
Regardless of Amanir's stupidity, Rex now knows where to find one of the three items.
Amanir has his perks, and that shows right now.
Just then Rex paused as he recalled something important that he forgot because of Delta.
System, you haven't finished your answer on how to make Devo and Amanir possess multiple elements.
<Does the user want to purchase the knowledge to increase spirits' aptitude?>
<5 million gold will be deducted, do the user want to continue with the purchase?>
Yes, tell me how.
<Purchase complete!>
<In order to expand Devo and Amanir's spirit aptitude, beyond their natural elements, it could be done by pitting them against other equivalent spirits with different properties. If they won, they could devour the other spirit, and gain new elemental properties>
<However, in order to do this, the user would need permission from a Spirit Adjudicator>
<For a battle between high spirits, only the Spirit Emperor could act as a Spirit Adjudicator>
Upon reading the series of notifications, Rex nodded as he found this convenient.
He would be meeting with the Spirit Emperor regardless since he would need to trade for the Phoenix Feather, so this is very convenient for him. Focusing back on the Countess Rex nods and grips her shoulder, firmly, "It is my fault that you are like this—so I will be the one healing you, Countess, wait for me"
After saying that, Rex brushed her astral black hair before he exited the Banished Realm.
Even though he didn't know how to find the other items—he could start with finding one.
Moments later.
Rex was now mounting Delta who was clad in armor that protected her nape, body, legs, and also tail. He already did one of the three Legendary-rank Item Tickets to buy the armor Delta is wearing right now.
It's called the Armor of Fulminare, focusing entirely on speed.
Despite providing no additional effects, unlike the Golden Imperium Fingerguards—the boost from this set of armor, was astonishing. Delta obtained 125,000 agility stats during the day— and 100,000 agility during the night.
Compared to Rex, she is still slower, but heck a lot faster than she was before.
"If we are lucky, the energy from the approaching Honey Moon might sprout a Lotus of Lunar Heart that you are seeking. It only sprouts in an area with filtration, so the mist outside might host one" Flunra, standing on the side said.
Right behind him was the assault team that he garnered, strong enough to scout the area.
Upon hearing this, Rex nodded, crossing his fingers for his luck.
But Flunra was not finished, "As for gathering divine energy, I believe it would be easy for you—Alpha. Then again, I need to ask you about this plan of mine" He turned to look at Rex, with a flicker of madness in his eyes. "Are you fine with offending Kaiser even more than now?"
"Kaiser...? Fuck it, he's already mad at me, so there's no need to hold back" Rex grinned.
Nodding in response, Flunra moved closer to Rex.
He whispered something before a smile gradually bloomed on Rex's face, "Is that so...?"
"Well, if I really do that, it would be a miracle if Kaiser didn't attack me again" He added.
