Chapter 1358 I Understand It Now!
Chapter 1358 I Understand It Now!
Nobody messed with the Werewolves during the full moon, it was a well-known fact that was heeded by many. Be it the powerful Demons with their immortal army—the Undead with their power of the dead, the Vampires, the Shapeshifters—everyone respected the full moon.
It doesn't matter how strong but the Werewolves are invincible during the full moon.
Anyone who dared to clash against them would suffer immense casualties.
Simply put, the power of the full moon made the Werewolves unpredictable and horrifying.
Across all types of full moons, each one of them made Werewolves stronger and very hard to kill. Killing Werewolves are already hard enough, the strong ones even have regeneration that goes through the influence of silver.
Coupled with the full moon, the turnover was simply too much for everyone to handle.
Killing a single Werewolf would probably need three to five of the same realm.
But the mutated animals didn't know that.
Most came from the new era—they were normal animals once that were mutated by mana to become monsters. Ninety-nine percent of them, were not even that old, they don't know this well-known fact about Werewolves.
Although most mutated animals in general got stronger at night, it wasn't enough.
Compared to a Werewolf's increase in power, theirs was not as strong.
Now, however, they were beginning to realize that.
"Come at me, don't be scared now!" Rex screamed, his insanity gave a clear display—of his Werewolf side. He was taunting Voltara as his wounds, even the severe ones healed rapidly in the blink of an eye.

Moments earlier, Rex felt the intensity of Voltara and Barssik's attacks was increasing.
It was the moment their animal brains realized that Rex was getting stronger.
Both of them attacked him rigorously, knowing full well that it was either Rex died before he could get strong enough, or they died for attacking him. Even though the wilderness, taught them the art of a battle for survival, this still pounded their hearts.
Despite their fear, these two Order Beasts weren't ready to give up yet.
Hiss!!
Covering for Voltara—who was influenced by Rex's Nectar Blood moon ability, causing it an excruciating spiritual pain, Brassik slithered directly towards Rex with its maw wide open, it was aiming to mince Rex with its sharp, venomous fangs.
Rex roared back and charged ahead, swallowed by the eternal frenzy of the night.
He was confident in his strength so he aimed to collide head-on.
However, Brassik had another idea—it suddenly dove into the ground as if it were water right before colliding with Rex, avoiding the lethal charge. Rex stopped and wanted to pivot but he was greeted by Brassik's tail heading towards him.
Pah!
Like a whip, the rock tail lashed at him devastatingly.
Anyone who was not around Rex's strength would be crushed by such a powerful strike.
Rex was able to block it with his arms but both his right arm broke.
But with a simple concentration of moonlight energy—his right arm went back into place as if it hadn't been hurt, from the start. Glancing over his shoulder, he saw Brassik baring its fangs again from behind.
Swoosh!
Swiping with full force, Rex slapped Brassik with his claws, sending it crashing to the side.
In the process, his claws broke and he couldn't pierce Brassik's rock skin.
Just as its stats from earlier showcased, its endurance was incredible thanks to its affinity.
However—the power from the Demon Moon was still increasing—and it was only a matter of time until Rex broke its skin. Even then, he still has other things up his sleeves, "Moon ability, Demonic Claws!"
Rex drifted like a shadow, his movement was fast, and his claws became bigger.
It also assumed a more glossy color that reflected the moonlight better.
Not stopping at that Rex cast another ability of his, the Honeyed Claws Moon Ability.
Golden aura seeped from his claw beds before coating his claws entirely, the power that was gathering in his claws was evident and he couldn't stop his lips from lifting into an agog smile—eager to see what his claws could do.
Of course, it wasn't a permanent solution, Rex could feel his body screaming in pain.
But the concept of pain was something that he had accustomed to.
Even though he was a Lightning Elementalist who had perfect resistance to lighting attacks, he trusted that his body was able to endure more raw pain rather than extreme lighting that is how much he had forged his body in the furnace of pain.
Not to mention, on the night of the full moon, pain only made him angrier.
And the angrier he becomes, the stronger he becomes.
Roar!!
Raising his left hand he channeled everything that he had into it, red force, the Unholy Claws of the Reaper skill, Honeyed Claws—everything he had to the point that his arm was pulsing, from the inside.
It was risky, one wrong move, and his left arm would've exploded too.
But he managed to channel enough and struck down.
Under Rex's mercy, Brassik tried to retaliate but Rex's claws were merciless as it sliced its big head into three parts, killing it instantly. Despite its death, its body was still lashing out—from the warm nerves.
Rex was whipped by its tail and was planted on the other side of the crater he was in.
Nevertheless, the notification from the System made him cackle maniacally.
I'm brilliant but my brilliance came way too late!
He laughed aloud.
Feeling that there was no end to his power as if he was a bottomless pit of energy, Rex was completely infatuated with himself. He was resisting going on a rampage all this time, when he could have timed it right like this.
Keeping my sanity? For what? I'm not in hiding anymore!
Recalling that he wasn't back when he was in the Human territory, hiding out of fear—for his identity being found out, his laughs intensified. He has nothing to fear for this—there was no need for him to keep his sanity.
Even the System never really suggested him to keep his sanity and berserk stable.
It only said that to keep him from going on a rampage, that is what he needed to do.
Meaning, the System only responded to what he wanted but it wasn't necessarily right.
Just like when he first turned into a Werewolf, he went on a rampage in the forest and was able to grow quicker because of that. Rex climbed out of the hole he was in, his mind, was now as clear as day.
Unlike the other Werewolves, he had the System to detail out the full moon's effects.
He could use that information to create plans to make himself stronger.
Regardless of him going insane or not, the fact remains—when he went berserk, like this, he was way closer—to invincibility than his original self. All he needed to do was create a stage like this one to utilize his berserk side better.
Even two Knight-class Order Beasts weren't able to kill him in this state.
Both of them could wound him but his regeneration at this moment was too insane.
Severe wounds were healed in an instant, even his right arm was already healed to full now.
It was the right thing that he told Evelyn to stop controlling his sanity.
It was the right thing to tell Iris to prepare for this stage.
It was the right thing for him to let the full moon take over his body.
Maybe due to his background and his former hate for the Werewolves, he viewed this side of him as a burden—when in actuality, it was nothing more—than a blessing. Each time the vast sky blessed the world with a full moon, he gained one day to do anything he wanted.
Going berserk was not a burden, it was an opportunity—a weapon in his arsenal.
Realizing that, Rex grabbed his face with his hand and laughed even harder, "Good..."
"I understand it now!" He exclaimed, announcing his newfound perspective.
