A tense mode lingered in the atmosphere as the 3 looked at each other.

Princess Elanor had a cold but unbothered look on her face as she looked at Rex, but her eyes alone could convey the question that was on her mind. As for Aragorn, he gave Rex a confused and questioning look.

5 minutes ago, after calling a sudden emergency meeting with his 2 companions here in the Gundam Shelter, they gathered in Aragorn's workshop.

For 5 minutes, the 3 mystic warriors stood like statues with 2 of them glaring at one of them and all this was because of the 2 strangers that followed him in.

Max and Stark Elden shivered in the corner as the oppressive atmosphere induced by the wills of the 3 mystic warriors suffocated them slowly.

When the atmosphere got too awkward, Rex finally spoke. "I can explain".

"Yeah, we're waiting". Aragorn said while finally directing a look at the 2 strangers as his brain warned him that what he feared already happened.

"Before I explain, I want to ask something". Rex said while looking at Aragorn. "What is our ultimate motive of coming to the Gundam Shelter?" 𝑓re𝘦𝔀𝗲𝘣𝘯𝘰νℯ𝒍.c𝗼m

"What is our ultimate goal of creating this brotherhood?"

Aragorn did not answer despite a few seconds having gone so Rex took it upon himself to answer. "I say our ultimate motive of coming here are 2. The first is to get strong enough, and the 2nd is to go to mid-earth".

Rex stared at Aragorn as he said this. "You and I both know that the easiest path to becoming Legendary Mystic Warriors is in mid-earth".

"Not only are the best mystic materials and treasures concentrated there, the best mystic warriors are also concentrated there".

"Besides, our greatest enemies are in mid-earth".

"Before thinking of going against our sworn enemies, we first need to think of defeating the minion powers in mid-earth before setting our eyes on them".

Rex took his eyes from Aragorn and turned to look at Princess Elanor. "You said you don't have an actual plan of coming here yet since everything happened to fast and you're not settled yet, so I'll give you one".

At this moment, Rex did not speak like an 18-year-old at all but like a veteran who already had decades of experience under his belt.

He was determined to convince his 2 friends through any means.

He looked intensely at Princess Elanor. "If you didn't know before, allow me to tell you that undoing the curse that plagues your race is no easy task".

"If I were you and I really wanted to see them again, I'll grab any opportunity to go to mid-earth where growth prospects are higher".

"It doesn't have to be now, we don't have to go now, we just have to secure the pathway so that when we are ready, we'll receive straight access".

After going through that roundabout route, Rex finally returned to the main point. "I already researched the Elden mystic family; it is a powerful mystic family that is in the middle spectrum of power in the Great Silver Shelter".

"Max and Stark are both descendants of this family. After thinking it through enough, I decided that they were our best immediate shot at mid-earth".

"What do you think will happen if 2 descendants of a mystic family this renowned is saved by us? Will they kill us? Will they help us?"

"I know, the world is messed up but it's good to have faith at times. This time, I believe that if we play our cards right, we'll benefit".

"Even if we don't benefit, I'm an Advanced Mystic Warrior now. It'll no longer be as easy for us to be blackmailed and disregarded".

After glaring at Rex throughout his little speech, Aragorn finally relented and sighed. "You've already done the deed, what can I do? Tell me what you know".

Princess Elanor only nodded to show that she would follow any decision that they made, which finally made Rex to smile for the first time.

He did not hesitate as he started telling both of them about Max and Stark. He narrated everything that he knew to them in a few minutes.

When he was done, Aragorn took a deep breath. "Well, we are already in this deep pit so the best we can do to survive is to give our best".

He turned to face the 2 Elden descendants the next moment. "I heard your story, and a few points that you made attracted my attention".

"Can you tell me more about this girl that Gaud fell in love with?"

Max stammered. "I-I don't really know much; he never spoke about her".

"Since when did he fall in love?"

"I don't know, probably 3 months ago".

"Do you know any notable females in your family that he visited in this period of 3 months ago?"

"I-I'm not sure…" Max stammered again.

"Ok". Aragorn rubbed his beard. "I guess I'll take the questioning route".

"Do you know of any notable things that Gaud hates doing as a chief guard?"

"Hmm, I think he hates hotdog and fried foods".

"I think he also hates guarding female descendants of my family. He naturally hates staying around females so that is understandable".

"Good". Aragorn interrupted him. "So do you know any female that he was tasked to guard during this period of 3 months?"

"I'm not sure".

"Ok, another question. If today, news suddenly comes that you are dead, which female stands to gain the most that first comes to your mind?"

"As you think of this, also try to associate it with Gaud".

Just the question alone and Max's eyebrows already raised. When Aragorn told him to associate it with Gaud, Max and Stark's eyes widened.

They both said the same name at the same time. "Jezebel!"

Rex stood closest to the 2 Elden siblings. When they both suddenly shouted Jezebel, as a mystic warrior, he was not supposed to be affected but Rex curled and grabbed his ears instantly as his eardrums seemed to burst.

-----

[You have been affected by a mystic treasure: Ghost Sound Amplifier!]

----

Rex was not the only one that was affected. Aragorn, Princess Elanor, and even Max and Stark were affected also as they all grabbed their ears.

When Max and Stark yelled, the Ghost Sound Amplifier was secretly used.

Having started working in the workshop for sometime already, Aragorn already created some basic machines.

Coincidentally, one of these mystic treasures that he crafted was designed specially to counter mystic warriors with sound related mystic abilities.

At this moment, this mystic treasure came in handy as it shattered, taking the full blow of the sound attack while allowing Aragorn to instantly recover.

Once he recovered, only one word dominated his mind. "Invisibility!"

Aragorn unleashed his Blood Pistols as he instantly pulled the trigger without hesitation. His aim was pin-point accurate as 2 strange rats that sneaked behind Rex were shot as they exploded into a bloody mess.

Bam! Bam!

Aragorn did not stop as he continued shooting.

In just the span of a few seconds, his bullets met different strange beasts ranging from rats to lizards, to even cats that were not supposed to be here.

The most horrifying fact was that all these small creatures had the strength of intermediate mystic beasts which made them a powerful force to go up against.

In these few seconds, not only was Aragorn able to fight back, he was also able to push his 2 companions, including Max and Stark behind him to safety.

Not long after he kicked them to safety though, he felt dizzy.

Bzzz!

The soul attack came like a raging tsunami and Aragorn's legs buckled instantly. In the end, he was still just a peak Intermediate mystic warrior while the enemy was a bonafide Advanced mystic warrior.

Aragorn almost lost consciousness as he staggered backwards.

This was when the enemy hidden in the shadows finally appeared. In a blue attire with the crest of a falling hammer, Gaud, one of the chief guards of the Elden mystic family finally left his invisible state to finish the job that he started.

He came alone, but from the current state of his 3 main enemies and his 2 targets, he alone was more than enough to take care of them.

At least, that was what he thought until Rex's eyes suddenly started glowing red. Even as blood still poured from his ears, Rex's energy surged rapidly.

-----

[You have activated Special Vampire Ability: Morphing!]

[Morphing Forms available: 2.]

[You have transformed into a Bear-man!]

----

Rex roared loudly as his body transformed in less than a second.

After morphing into his new form, Rex felt boundless energy surging through his body as his damaged ears started hearing again. As this energy flowed through his body, he channeled it into a skill.

[You have activated Bear-man skill: Rage Dash!]

Rex exploded with speed like a race car dashing along a straight track as he seemed to disappear, leaving blurry afterimages in his wake.

Rex appeared before the enemy in almost an instant as their eyes clashed. Gaud reacted instantly as he started fading into invisibility but Rex was faster as he grabbed him by the neck with the strength of a beast.

[You have activated Bear-man skill: Rage Claws!]

"Caught you, bastard?!" Rex glared at him.
