The next day,
Rex got up early in the morning when the sky is still dark, he was now inside the master bedroom of the mansion located on the back of the mansion's second floor.
It's quite private as there are no rooms except for the master bedroom in the hallway.
Unlike usual, Adhara is currently sitting in a meditative position beside him as she has been training non-stop to get used to using spirit energy.
The same goes for Kyran who is also training non-stop with Adhara,
Last night Gistella and Ryze already reached the mansion after getting picked up by some men Rex assigned, Rex has also given Gistella something that can make her stronger.
From the system, Rex finds how to make Gistella stronger.
Gistella has become a full-fledged Werewolf ever since the day Rex killed Wesley, she didn't turn into a normal Werewolf like Adhara but she turns into a sub-race called Werewolf Fiend.
It's a branch of mutated Werewolf that has been influenced by Death Energy.
Rex is quite happy with what Gistella turned into,
Just like how an Undead becomes stronger, Gistella as a Werewolf Fiend can become stronger by absorbing or perhaps eating a source that is rich with negative energy.
Mana is considered positive energy except for the Dark mana,
Negative energy is mainly consisting of Supernatural Energies except for the Dragonman, so Gistella becomes a Werewolf that will get stronger by absorbing Supernatural.
Aside from that, she also has a unique skill called Scale of Fiend.
It's a skill that extracts the pure essence of negative energy every time she absorbs a rich-filled energy source through anything, this pure essence of negative energy can be then used to summon a dark bronze scale around her body that amplifies her power.
These scales can nullify a portion of an attack and also enhance her bodily power.
Rex doesn't know how much pure essence she will extract and also the length of time using the Scale of Fiend, but from the explanation alone it's quite a powerful skill.
She has become a Werewolf that is literally bound to killing Supernatural.
Just like what Rex said the first time he wanted to turn Gistella into a Werewolf, she will repay her sin of killing humans by killing Supernatural in return.
Rex has also given Supreme Rank Breathing Technique to each of his pack members.
This Breathing Technique is called Vampire Bane Breathing Technique will make their body covered by a lesser form of Linzite, it will sting any Vampires that touches them.
It will also help them to tear through a Blood Spell if necessary.
After rubbing his face, Rex then went to freshen himself.
While he's taking a shower, he suddenly smiles, 'They're still at it? For a normal human, they're certainly monsters', he thought while shaking his head.
In just a moment, Rex got out of the bathroom and saw Adhara is still meditating.
Rex lets her meditate some more before heading outside of the bedroom while only wearing somekind of dark blue chino pants that he bought from the system.
His things are still at the university so he decided to just buy clothes from the system.
Exiting the bedroom, the entire mansion is still dark.
Only a couple of lights along the hallway and below helps to navigate through the mansion, when Rex takes a left on a corner he suddenly saw Gistella just got out of the shower.
The fragrant scent of the soap lingers in the air as she got out of the shower.
Seeing this, Rex can't help but smile when he saw Gistella wrapping her body with a towel which means she at least understands the fundamentals of being a human.
"Master... Where are you going this early?", she asks while approaching Rex.
But when Rex was about to answer, he suddenly saw Gistella kneeling when she reached in front of him which makes him sigh, "I told you, you don't need to do this with me"
"I won't do it in front of the others, but if we're alone please let me do this", she replied softly.
Hearing this, Rex was about to decline her wishes but he suddenly saw that Gistella looks somewhat calm while she was doing this which changed Rex's mind.
With a sigh, he then finally replied, "Fine, but only when there's no one around us"
"Thank you master...", Gistella replied bowing her head.
Rex rubs Gistella's head with his hand making Gistella widen her eyes but it was not caught by Rex as he continues, "I'm going to check the guests, they're still in the training room"
His voice snap Gistella out of her daze from having her head rubbed by Rex,
She then looks up to see Rex and asks, "Do you want me to accompany you, master?"
The act of her looking up exposes some parts of her womanly body covered with a towel and also her bright blue eyes, it makes Rex turns his head away unconsciously.
It still feels surreal for him that Gistella turns into a somewhat attractive woman.
When Rex was about to decline, he suddenly stopped, 'She needs to improve her social ability if she wanted to become a proper human, lets just let her accompany me'
"Alright, go get dressed and I'll wait for you downstairs", Rex finally replied.
A moment later,
Rex looks up from his phone after sensing Gistella is descending the stairs.
The skin-tight white pant hugged her legs perfectly showing her plump curves, there is a silver decoration in the shape of a flower near her right thigh, and her silvery-white hair matches her plain red v-neck t-shirt that is a bit too small which makes her toned but silky smooth stomach pokes out every time she took a stair down.
Even the Silverstar mark in the middle of her chest is exposed clearly to see.
It came out of nowhere, but Rex suddenly felt a bit intoxicated by this side of Gistella that he never would've thought would fit her.
'She looks dashing in red and silver', he thought appreciating what he was looking at.
While inspecting Gistella descending down the stairs, Rex's hand moved as he bought a couple of things from the system's shop that he can't help but buy.
Two items appeared from thin air in Rex's hands,
Gistella walks closer to Rex with her eyes fixated on the two items that appeared, the left one is a pair of silver bracers that covers the arms until the elbow, while the other one is a silver shield with a huge rune engraved on it, and the size of it is quite small compared to the normal size of a war shield that should be the size of her body.
"This is for you, it's going to help you defend the others in a fight", Rex said.
Hearing this, Gistella's eyes turn starry for a moment as she falls in love with the bracers and shield, she gratefully accepts the two items she's been given and instantly wore them.
Upon seeing this, Rex nodded his head appreciating his taste, 'Now she's perfect'
Just like as he expected, both items are perfect for her as if they're made just to be worn by her.
Rex bought the silver bracers that are called Silver-Forged Bracers of Fleeting Defense, these silver bracers cost 80,000 gold which amplifies all defense-related abilities by 20% and also adds 100 extra Endurance each.
The shield on the other hand is called Arian or also known as Guardian of Nobility.
It cost about 150,00 gold which gives a raw 500 Endurance to the wearer, the shield also grants 40% of the wearer's endurance as a protective barrier around that shield as an extra layer.
Gistella looks down while playing with her fingers, "Thank you, master..."
"No problem, now, let's go check the guests", Rex said before leading the way.
The training ground is located on a separate building on the right side of the mansion, it's used by the Atkins to train since the entire place is protected by an eighth-rank protection rune.
Entering the training room, Rex is instantly greeted by the sight of the Disaster Squad.
But instead of training, all of them are lying on the ground beaten up to the pulp while a man that looks exactly like Rex is standing in the middle of the training ground.
Even Gistella is surprised to see this scene,
"Oh, Is that all of the Disaster Squad might?", Rex remarks cheekily.
Hearing the familiar voice, Tandu strugglingly looks up while holding his hurting stomach before he widens his eyes, "H-How come there's two of you?"
"You mean, that?", Rex said while pointing at the other him standing in the middle.
Rex then added with a nasty smile, "That's just an illusion of me, I try to set it about 30% of my power but it seems you all are still not a match"
"Fuck that, let me be an Awakened so I can beat you up", Tandu replied back.
The other member of the Disaster Squad can't even stand up like Tandu, all of them are on the ground bruised and some even coughing blood.
With a flick of Rex's hand, the other him turns into blue light and disappears.
Since this place is owned by one of the top ten families in Ratmawai City, the training ground is automated with technologies that Rex doesn't even know how to operate.
The training room is a rectangle shape that is quite big,
In the middle of the place is sand that should be used for shadow fighting or even using a dummy, but the gaps located on the edge of the sandy ground show that it seems the floor can be exchanged with other terrains.
Rex walks past the people on the ground before he stands in the middle,
"I'm quite surprised that you guys kept fighting through the night, it takes quite a huge fighting spirit to actually fight that hard", Rex complemented with a smile.
Although it sounds mocking, he's genuinely praising them.
30% of his own power must be around the fifth rank realm or even as high as the early sixth rank, the illusion is just like a robot that Rex can set how it will act but its attack is still something that normal humans can't take even once.
But seeing them fighting like this, they're certainly monsters.
Scanning the entire Disaster Squad, Rex finds that all of them have at least a gift while Tandu has the highest as he has three gifts.
Just from this alone, it makes sense for Tandu to be the strongest amongst.
"You all pass my tests, so I'm going to make you all an Awakened now...", Rex utters.
Hearing this, all of the Disaster Squad's eyes lit up as they forced their hurting bodies to sit while gazing at Rex expectantly.
Seeing their eager expression, Rex then takes out five affinity orbs from the inventory.
There are two earth affinity orbs, one fire affinity orb, one wind affinity orb, and the last one is a poison affinity orb which Rex will give to Tandu.
Everyone's eyes lit up after seeing the five affinity orbs,
If known then many others will kill for these affinity orbs, only the system has them.
With that, Rex taught them how to absorb the affinity orb.
A moment later,
"Hah! I can really feel it!", Aldo exclaimed as his body glowed with a brown hue.
Another buddy of his, Giraldo also exclaimed after seeing his body glows with a red hue showing that he's an Awakened now, "Fuck! I can now burn that fucking one-eyed officer!"
The others are also inspecting their bodies excitedly,
Because of becoming an Awakened, their wounds are becoming less painful alongside their bodies becoming even stronger reaching an inhuman level.
Now they all are already standing,
"Tandu, you can finally beat that orc using bare hands! Congratulation dipshit!", Aldo said with a mocking smile, he saw Tandu's body glowing with a dark green hue.
Hearing this, Tandu didn't even reply as he laughs maniacally at himself.
"With this, I'm confident I can beat that damn illusion of yours!", he said while pointing at Rex intending to challenge the illusion again.
But then suddenly, Giraldo's eyes landed on Gistella.
The sight of such a beautiful woman within reach of his hands makes his body trembles in excitement, he then asks, "Who is that? I can feel that she's meant to be mine"
Rex glanced at Gistella before he let out a chuckle,
"Her name is Gistella, she only dates a man who is stronger than her", Rex said teasingly.
Gistella didn't respond as her crystal blue eyes are gazing at Giraldo, her eyes are cold and sharp as she stands beside Rex unmoving like a statue of a princess.
Instead of being intimidated, Giraldo becomes even more excited, "Really?!"
"Then say less! Come and fight me, baby, let papa beat you before we can move on to dessert!", he added while taunting Gistella to fight with him.
Clearly annoyed, Gistella looks at Rex with a meaningful look.
Seeing this, Rex then shrugs his shoulders, "Alright, I'll let you hurt them just this once. Make sure to pummel each one of them so they won't act out again"
Hearing this, a condescending smirk appears on Gistella's face.
But instead of only Giraldo, even the other three guys including Tandu stand up as they ready themselves to fight with Gistella hoping to beat her.
They won't just decline such a generous offer like this,
The only woman in the Disaster Squad looks at Gistella before she stands up and walks to the side, she walks past Gistella and said, "You don't need to hold back, they're sick in the head"
"Maybe some punches to the balls will make them finally think with their actual head"
After looking at the excited guys, Rex walks out toward the exit nonchalantly before he said, "Gistella, make sure to hurt them but don't kill them alright"
"As you wish master...", Gistella said before suddenly,
BOOM!
Violent white-bluish energy exploded from Gistella's body surprising the four guys, they all widen their eyes as they can feel Gistella is stronger than even Rex's illusion.
Tandu who snapped out of his daze started to cold sweat,
"W-Wait Rex! Stop her! I'm tapping out, I'm not a part of this!", he shouted.
Aldo who also got sent back to reality after feeling Gistella's aura becomes pale, "S-she's also the same! She'll rip my balls off!!"
"Fuck you, Giraldo! This is all your fault!"
