Chapter 874  Safe Utopia

Rex didn\'t count how many times he fell into the shallow water out of exhaustion, but it\'s definitely a lot. But compared to the ones earlier, this time, he has a satisfied smile on his face thanks to his achievement.

Despite his exhaustion, he could feel a cool sensation breezing his body.

Having unlimited stamina in this realm thanks to the Countess who helped him recover doesn\'t mean he\'s completely fine, his mental takes a huge hit in this place. It was only his unyielding perseverance that helped him get by fine.

Put anyone in this realm for even 15 minutes, and they would go insane.

This realm is specifically made to torture the Countess through the pain that mortals felt.

Almost like an extreme version of sensory deprivation.

Rex could feel his senses becoming number the longer he stayed, and not long from insanity. Even a moment earlier, he was surprised when he got a warning from the System about his decreasing sanity stat.

It forces him to take a breather to increase his sanity before continuing his training.

Now, he could finally breathe in relief. He mastered the stubborn Brutal Impulse Moon Ability.

During the unknown amount of time he spent inside the Banished Realm, he make sure to split his training into three even sessions. But given that the Brutal Impulse is the hardest, he decided to put more effort into it.

Seize of Twilight Moon Ability is the easiest to master.

Far from being a weak moon ability, he managed to learn it the easiest because he was instructed by the Countess herself who is the origin of that moon ability. No wonder he could learn it the fastest.

Unlike the Brutal Impulse, the Seize of Twilight is not an offensive ability.

Much like the King of Kings skill in his arsenal, this ability is a supporting one. It allows Rex to actually seize a visible body part from the target and put it into the Twilight Dimension, resulting in the targeted body part being unfunctional.

It could be a hand, an eye, a nose, or even the entire arm or leg of the target.

For instance, if he seizes a hand, then the target wouldn\'t be able to produce any spell or skill using that hand nor will the target be able to use that hand for anything. Not that the target couldn\'t, but the attack would manifest in the Twilight Dimension.

Simply put, casting a fireball would only produce the fireball in the Twilight Dimension.

On top of that, he already used the Unbinding Cursed Technique to unleash his cursed potential and created his curse source. Thanks to the technique, he immediately reached the fourth epiphany in terms of cursed power.

\'Compared to Calidora, I think mine is still way weaker. How did she get that far quickly...?\'

Remembering the cursed output she showed, the difference is evident.

If he had to guess roughly, Calidora should be around the eighth or ninth epiphany in terms of her cursed power. Due to that, she could actually match against Dealkandrax and the insectoid-cursed creature belonging to the Witch of Chaos.

<Sudden Quest completed!>

<The user has obtained 200 Million Exp, Jar of Malison, and 2 Million Gold>

<Jar of Malison>

A cursed object that if fed with cursed cores of other cursed creatures will provide a 50% increase in potency, allowing the one who trains in the way of curses to gain 50% more cursed energy from the fed cursed cores. Can\'t absorb cursed cores higher than the seventh epiphany.

\'Nice item, I could use this when I hunt cursed creatures later\' Rex thought with a nod.

Since he has been told to stick close to Calidora and hunt cursed creatures by the Witch of Chaos, this item would be a great help. But as he thought of this, he suddenly remembered something and shifted his eyes towards the Countess.

Pondering for a moment, he then asked, "Am I really in a comatose state...?"

"Yes, you are" the Countess replied without thinking.

Upon hearing this Rex couldn\'t help but frown at her response, something doesn\'t add up, "If I\'m really in a comatose state, then why didn\'t Evelyn help me recover by now? How long has it been out there?"

A notification from the System has been bothering him for some time.

<It\'s advised to be exposed to the Luna energy to quicken the regeneration process!>

It\'s that notification that bothered him the most, Evelyn should\'ve helped him recover considering that the situation is quite uncertain for them right now. Rex was trying so hard in his training fearing that he would wake up any second.

But even until he finished his training, that time never came which is weird.

\'System, I know that I\'m hurt severely, but how long do I need to recuperate until I regained my consciousness with the help of Evelyn?\' Rex decided to ask the System, he felt something was odd about this.

<Calculating...>

<Approximately it will take 13 days until regaining consciousness>

<In addition to the help of the Countess that has been repelling the godly energy of the Lunirich Gods, the time until regaining consciousness has been cut short to a little more over a day>

Upon reading the notifications, Rex couldn\'t help but look at the Countess.

Rex smiled when he realized that the Countess has also been helping him repel the Lunirich Gods\' energy without telling him, \'Seems like that favor from the black rose really makes her support me fully, I don\'t know who you are but thank you\'

"The Luna seems to be pretending to heal you, but she\'s not" the Countess replied.

A frown was plastered on his face when he heard this, he couldn\'t understand what was inside Evelyn\'s mind that made her like this, \'Is she perhaps scared about what I\'m going to do when I wake up...?\'

\'Sigh... Even now she still doesn\'t understand\' Rex thought with a sigh.

But while he was thinking, the Countess suddenly sensed something and flicked her fingers.

"It seems like you\'re going to wake up now, I\'ll repel you from the Banished Realm. Your Luna has regained back to her senses, that\'s good" the Countess said before in an instant, Rex was pulled inside the shallow water.

Like being teleported, he felt dizzy, and his vision started to turn black.

In a moment, he could feel a change. It was not cold anymore like in the Banished Realm.

Clearly, he\'s now inside the bed chamber again.

Rex slowly opens and blinks his eyes a couple of times to adjust to the surroundings, he could see the purple energy shrouding the entire bed chamber, and he could also feel his body is still in immense pain.

Groaning lightly, he slowly pushes himself to sit up while enduring the migraine.

Feeling the normality of the atmosphere makes him feel better, the Banished Realm is uncomfortable to be in. Rex then turns his head to the side, to the window, and finds that the sky is brimming with golden light.

It seems to be noon, and the light hitting his skin feels very pleasant.

"R- Rex...?"

Upon hearing someone calling him from the other side, Rex turns his head over and finds Evelyn with her blazing red hair falling to one side. She wears a white nightgown that he hasn\'t seen before.

Realizing that Rex is looking at her nightgown, Evelyn smiled lightly.

"It\'s Queen Shanaela\'s, she saw me looking down and decided to give this and a couple more for me. Did it not suit me? Do you not like it?" Evelyn explained herself, trying to lighten the mood between the two of them.

But instead of focusing on what she was saying, Rex has other things in mind.

Although he really wanted to confront her about the fact that she pretended to heal him when in actuality she was not, he decided to keep silent about this and turns to sit on the edge of the bed.

Evelyn was worried when she saw him trying to get up from the bed.

"Are you really okay? Isn\'t it better for you to rest for a little bit more before moving?"

"No, it seems I was already unconscious for too long to do that"

Despite not meaning to be sarcastic, those words came out of his mouth rather smoothly.

In response, Evelyn could feel the sarcasm in his voice and worried that he might know what she did but decided that it wouldn\'t be possible. Rex is in a comatose state earlier, he shouldn\'t know about it.

"Okay, here, let me help you," Evelyn said and offered her help.

Rex didn\'t decline this offer as he finds it quite hard to stand up on his own in this state.

Clearly, it was not the right time to actually feel like this, but he becomes slightly angry from the fact that he was reduced to this state by the Lunirich Gods. He did escape death, but this is still annoying to feel.

"Eurghh..."

"Slowly, hold onto me. I\'ll help you"

Under quite a struggle, Rex eventually stands and straightens his back.

Knowing that this won\'t do as he needs to at least move around to address the situation inside the city and make plans, he decided to buy an elixir from the System that would help him temporarily suppress his immobility.

Taking it out of the inventory, he chugged the elixir down in one go.

Evelyn was watching this from the side curiously, but after a brief pause, she could see Rex\'s body regaining strength again. It was then, he gestured to her that he was fine before he walks to the vanity mirror.

Putting both hands on the table, he then looks at the mirror to inspect himself.

Most of his injuries were still opened especially the nasty gash on his stomach. In addition, his hands and fingers were also almost recovered completely. Given a couple more days with the right treatment, he should be fine.

"If it\'s okay, can I ask where did you go with Calidora that made you like this?"

Despite asking such a simple question, Evelyn was pinching her index finger. It seems asking that question is very hard for her, the distant feeling between them is evident, and she couldn\'t help but feel detached and away.

Rex looks at her through the mirror before he eventually replied.

"I was trying to get the Banished Dark Moon King Mark again, but I got attacked by the Lunirich Gods" Rex said truthfully, he didn\'t need to hide this information. It\'s not like Evelyn would go around and run her mouth.

Upon hearing this, Evelyn was evidently surprised, this is not a small matter.

Turning his body around to meet her gaze, he then continues, "I almost died that night, the Lunirich Gods are beyond my power. But thanks to Calidora\'s help, I managed to survive albeit barely"

"O- Oh... Calidora did. I- I\'m glad..." Evelyn replied meekly.

In a matter of seconds, her facial expressions underwent a massive uproar. She almost cried when she heard that Rex almost died, but quickly turns gloomy and outright sad knowing the fact that Calidora was there and somehow helped him.

Evelyn should be glad, but her feelings are complicated when she heard that.

Knowing exactly what she was thinking, judging from the bleak aura of despair coming out of her body, Rex sighed as it seems she still doesn\'t understand why he was this angry towards her despite already trying to give her cues.

Surely, she should\'ve realized it by now. But it seems she hasn\'t.

\'Adhara also should\'ve realized by now. In fact, I expected more from her than Evelyn since she could see emotional aura. Just what is inside both of your heads...\' Rex thought and shakes his head.

But Rex decided to put that at the back of his mind right now.

Right now, he needs to know what happened during his comatose state before anything.

"Come, let\'s talk in the throne room"

Walking slowly and carefully, he heads towards the door with Evelyn still rooted in her spot. Just when his hand stretches for the door handle, he abruptly stopped and glanced over his shoulder to look at the woman in a white nightgown.

"Evelyn, do you have something to say to me...?"

Upon hearing this, Evelyn snapped out of her trance and looks towards him.

Biting her lower lip in response, she then looks down to the floor and shakes her head.

"Nothing, I was just glad that you finally recovered"

"Hmm... It\'s okay, I will not die yet until there\'s a safe utopia for you. That\'s a promise"
