Vampire System- The Last Mystic Swordsman-Chapter 238 Meeting Max Fury

The next morning, Rex woke up energized.

Having spoken extensively with Aragorn yesterday, he felt that he had a grasp of what the war prisoners were about to say to him. As Aragorn already proved capable, he left all the administrative duties to him.

This time, Rex wanted to go see the war prisoners alone. fre𝙚𝓌𝒆𝚋noѵel.c𝚘m

All he wore was a casual leather attire, 2 daggers and Berserker before going deep into the Berserk Mansion to where the prison was located.

Despite receiving descriptions from Aragorn already, since this was his first time touring this new mansion, Rex was left awed by almost everything.

Having grown in Obedin City that was even more restricted technologically, this mansion was without a doubt the most luxurious that he had seen.

After navigating his way underground, he met the prison guards.

The news of the Gang Leader waking up did not just circulate in the surface, the prison guards also knew already. As soon as they saw Rex coming, they developed cold feet as they all rigidly stood at attention.

Most if not all of the present warriors of the Berserk Gang took part in the previous war. In the war, they got to witness the outrageous strength of this god.

Despite becoming his subordinates, most of the warriors still could not shake off the feeling that Rex was a battle god. This induced a sense of outmost respect and fear in them that they couldn't even look Rex in the eye.

Having unlocked the mystic sword domain already, Rex was able to notice everything that happened to the smallest details but he didn't pay attention to it.

Since he became the Gang Leader of the Berserk Gang, he already learned a lot of things and got experience, and one of them included tolerating this.

The stronger he grew and the more feats that he achieved, the more frequent he would witness this, the road to the peak was sometimes lonely.

Rex already grew to get used to it.

As soon as he passed the guards, he went deep into the huge prison to an isolated part, this was where Max Fury the dictator was held.

Rex decided to meet this prisoner first before meeting the others. Unlike the others, he still didn't understand why Max asked for him.

He put the key in the slot and twisted.

…

Click!

Inside the darkness, as soon as he heard the sound, a pair of eyes opened.

'It's not feeding time yet, still they dare to open the door to my cage'. Max smirked. 'It's either Rex woke up or they're trying my conviction'.

'I won't wait to confirm which of the 2 options is the truth'.

Whoosh!

The huge metal door barely started opening before Max flared his mystic energy, causing it to pulsate like the movement of electricity through a conductor as he grabbed the special chains that held him and rushed towards the door.

Like he said, despite the restraints of the mystic energy shackles, if he really wanted, he could push them to the limits and still exert strength.

His speed was so fast that he left only a blur in the darkness. Mid-sprint, Max wrapped the chain around his arms, forming a makeshift weapon in the process as he punched at the intruder with all the strength that he could muster.

The punch almost induced a sonic boom but the intruder on the receiving end was prepared, a pair of red eyes stared at Max from the other side before he moved. Rex moved even faster than him.

Boom!

In one smooth movement, Rex dodged his opponent's punch and used his force of momentum against him, slamming his hand against the metal wall.

The mystic energy shackles shattered on impact as Max's hand bled.

From the darkness, he grinned like the devil. "Rex, you got stronger like I expected, wars are indeed the best way to fulfill potentials like mine and yours".

"It's nice to meet you again".

Rex looked back at his war prisoner with a neutral look on his face. "You asked for me, what do you want?"

"Before I answer you, I also have a question for you". Max turned to walk deeper into his cage as he switched on the lights in the process.

With the lights on, Rex got a close glimpse at his war prisoner. After almost 3 months in here, Max's skin was more shriveled but the hidden strength in his body could not be mistaken, he was still Max the conqueror.

His brown hair was now like the mane of a lion as they hung scattered across his shoulders, giving him a rough and unruly vibe.

Max walked back to his bed before sitting cross-legged, then he looked at Rex with a smile. Rex got the clue and walked closer to sit with him.

Max finally asked. "Why did you spare my life?" ƒ𝒓e𝐞we𝚋𝙣ｏ𝚟𝚎𝘭.co𝙢

"I was simply too exhausted to end your life".

"Hehe, I'm no fool, we're both warriors". Max grinned. "Considering how much suffering I caused you in that battle and knowing my strength fully well, a rational mystic warrior would have strained himself to kill me before fainting".

"You spared me for a reason, I want to know the reason".

Rex had no change in his expression. "Don't overthink it, I did not spare you out of mercy, I left you alive because I simply didn't see you worthy enough to exert so much effort into killing".

"It's never too late to kill you, I can do it now".

Max smiled. "You know, I have a strange ability to read emotions, I can tell if someone is lying to me or telling me the truth".

"Its one reason why I was successful in ruling the Axe Gang".

"And right now…" He grinned. "You're telling the truth".

"I'm not worthy enough to make you exert so much effort, you are indeed worthy of getting the power of ending my life".

Rex stared at him without saying a word.

Max smiled. "As a fellow genius, I'll reveal a secret to you".

"In my years of killing, I learned one thing, defeating your enemy gives you half the experience of the battle to get better and stronger".

"Killing your enemy gives the full battle experience in war".

"Killing gives power!" He clenched his right fist.

"I lived my whole life pursuing the peak of power to kill death".

"As my superior, I believe that you can achieve it". Max looked straight at Rex. "Kill me, use me as fuel to hone your battle experience to get to the peak and kill death".

Rex kept quiet and stared at his opponent.

At this moment, he no longer sensed the arrogance of a conqueror.

At this moment, he only sensed the innocent sincerity like that of a kid asking his father for a favor. At this moment, Rex felt that Max asking this demand of him was asking for a favor and it briefly made him get goosebumps.

"Kill me Rex, that is the best way to get to the peak".

"Kill me! He stressed with gritted teeth.

The system lit up the next moment.

On seeing the system notification, Rex's eyes constricted even more. 'Does he really see me killing him as fulfilling a favor?' He was shocked.

On reading in-between the lines of the mission details, he discovered something, Rex stared at Max and asked. "What is your ultimate dream?"

Max froze in shock for a moment, then he laughed. "My ultimate dream…?"
