Chapter 175: I Dont Want to Die (2/2)
It gives Rex the letter from the green messenger, the letter contains the issue of a mission for Rex and Liliya.
The mission is to get a drop of tear from a creature called Northern Black Head.
Rex thought that the mission will be easy enough but the location surprised him, it is very close to a Vampire stronghold.
So he needs to prepare,
Rex got out of the training ground with hurry steps,
It is already afternoon and Rex wanted to go to the canyon again, he wanted to level up to at least 30 before he goes onto the mission.
Aside from that,
About four days ago Rex reaches rank five, the rune on his shoulder is complete.
The black lightning becomes even easier to control, and their power almost becomes three-time more powerful than before.
Rex is currently walking back to his room,
He wanted to pack his stuff for the mission that will take at least a week to complete, he also need to bid goodbye to Kyran.
Not to Adhara though,
”Kyran, I'm going on a trip for a week or more. You watch the room for me alright, and don't forget to keep training”, Rex said while packing his stuff.
Hearing this, Kyran frowns and said, ”Can I come too? I want to test my powers”
Rex shakes his head, ”We'll go somewhere after I come back, just wait until then”
Kyran smacks his lips in displeasure be he eventually agrees, he's not that mad at Rex because the breathing technique he got from Rex is fascinating.
He doesn't know how, but he can feel his body getting stronger by the day.
From the Yule Moon incident, Kyran surprisingly doesn't remember what happened that night.
He only remembers that he suddenly fell to the ground as pain overwhelms him, but aside from that, he doesn't remember a single thing.
Not even a glimpse of becoming a Werewolf crosses his mind.
Rex and Adhara then decided to tell him later, they lied to Kyran that he suddenly fall unconscious because he's sick.
But the doctors cured him, and everything went back to normal.
After bidding goodbye to Kyran and telling the butlers and maids, Rex went out of the room with a big bag on his back.
When he opened the door, he suddenly saw Adhara in front of the door.
Adhara widened her eyes when she saw Rex, but that surprised look turn into a curious look when she saw a big bag behind Rex.
”Are you going somewhere?”, Adhara asks meekly.
Rex glance at her briefly before he walked past her, ”Yep, I'll be back in a week or more”
Adhara wanted to say more but Rex was already far away, she clenches her hand softly before she walks inside the room.
She then slams her body on the bed,
Adhara hits the pillow a couple of times in frustration before she calmed down, she looks at the ceiling in thought, 'So that's how his parents died huh, wait...parents?!'
She just realized that if Rex's parents died, then Mrs. Greene and Robert are step-parent.
'I shouldn't have confronted him like that', she thought before she buried her head on the pillow.
Rex meets Ari in the lobby and told him that he will leave for a week, he also told Ari to keep a watch for Adhara and Kyran.
He didn't want Ari to come with him because he will meet up with Liliya.
The matter regarding the SCO will need to be kept a secret, no one will know about it.
After telling Ari what to do, Rex went and meet with Edward that is already waiting for him in the parking lot.
Edward saw Rex before his face turns sour,
Seeing this, a smile appears on Rex's face that makes Edward's expression soured, ”I believe you brought the key, Give it to me”
”Why do you have to use my car”, Edward said helplessly.
Rex takes the car keys off of Edward's hand before he said, ”Just because, you're my best friend”, he then walks past Edward without any hint of guilt.
”Write me off of the best friend contract! I want to terminate it right now!”, Edward shouted.
But Rex only chuckles before he gets in the car and left the university,

Ochyra University,
A girl is also packing her stuff in the room, the bag is filled with her clothes.
From the look of it, the girl is also planning on a long trip.
If Rex was here, he will instantly recognize this girl to be Rosie who is packing her stuff with a blank expression.
Her phone suddenly rings when she's packing her stuff.
She takes her phone and answered, ”Hello?”
”Are you really asking permission to leave for a couple of days?”, the person on the other side asks, there's a hint of skepticism in his voice.
Rosie bit her lips and said, ”Yes, my friend died and she's pretty close with me”
”It's going to be hard to approve your permission”, the person on the other side said, he still doesn't believe Rosie's excuse.
Rosie then pleaded, ”Please, I'm not lying sir”
The person on the other side then sigh, he then finally said, ”Fine, I'll approve it this time”
”YES! Thank you, sir, I'm going now”, Rosie said happily before she hung up the call.
After getting permission to take a leave, Rosie continues to pack her stuff.
But just when she's about to leave, she suddenly saw a photo of Rex opening a present on her phone that makes her stop on her track.
Rosie looks at the photo with a subtle smile, ”Rex...”, she said softly.
The photo is a picture that Rosie has taken quietly on Rex's birthday, it is a photo of Rex opening a birthday gift from her.
She caress the photo slowly before a tear from her eyes, 'I swear that I will pull you to me again, I will not stop until we went back like we used to', she thought with determination.
Rosie then turn off her phone and left the room,
