On his way to Bowling Town, Rex got these series of system notifications.

Originally, this was supposed to make him happy but Rex was far too worried to be happy. All his thoughts as the massive military bus moved were on the current situation of Bowling Town and if the town even survived the disaster.

Having lived in Bowling Town all his life, Rex knew everything about it like the back of his hand. Compared to Obedin City, his town was too backward.

This was the reason why he could do and get away with a lot of things that the Obedin City police force would have easily discovered and nabbed him for.

The town had no army, even their police force could barely be called one. Overall, Bowling Town was in no condition to resist such an invasion of beasts.

The only thing that Rex could do at this moment was hope. Hope against all hope that the god of luck smiled on Bowling Town today and a miracle happened.

6 minutes later, the bus arrived in Bowling Town and all of Rex's fantasies of a miracle happening shattered. This was reality, not some fantasy, the first sight of the town hammered this cruel truth into Rex's head.

The first sign of a disaster that Rex saw was the torn-down 'welcome to Bowling Town' signboard, it was never torn down in the history of this town.

Entering the town, the bus seemed to drive into hell itself as blood immediately stained the tires red. Like Obedin City, Bowling Town was in flames.

Unlike the high-rise buildings of Obedin City, Bowling Town had none of them but it was these low buildings that served as a better stomping ground for the beasts.

The fire was ignited after the only gas station in the town was destroyed. The gas exploded, killing both beasts and humans in the process as it swiftly spread through different channels to all corners of the town.

Rex felt like tearing his eyes out as everywhere he looked, he saw blood, dead bodies, mutilated flesh, and broken limbs.

He saw no survivor in sight, what he saw were the mystic beasts who were still roaming all over the town like they were the rightful owners.

On seeing the beasts, Rex's blood started burning hot as his eyes turned redder. Before he could move, orders came from the leader of this mission.

"Our target are the beasts, go out there and kill them all!"

"While killing them, be on the lookout and search for any survivors".

"Once you see a survivor, make rescuing them a priority".

"Move it boys!"

As the soldiers around him rushed down from the bus, Rex reacted instinctively as he grabbed Berserker before following them down.

The beasts that invaded here were exactly those that invaded Obedin City. The fact that they accurately navigated their way from the city to Bowling Town once again confirmed that someone was behind this beast invasion.

Rex didn't know the real culprit, but he knew the beasts and they were now his vent outlets as he roared before swinging Berserker towards the closest beast.

[You have activated advanced sword skill: One Autumn Leaf- 1st Move!]

[Splitting Slash!]

Boom!

Rex started the hunt aggressively to vent his anger.

[You have killed a Basic Mystic Beast: Wild Boar!]

[You have gained 4 mystic energy points!]

Like every other soldier who fought at the forefront of the defensive line in Obedin City, Rex's military uniform was drenched with blood already, now more beast blood stained it as he started a massacre.

Alongside the other soldiers that were mobilized here even as more buses arrived, they started a sweep across the town to wipe out the mystic beasts.

Rex killed for over 5 minutes before he found his first survivor, a little girl. Curled up in a corner, this traumatized kid sobbed while grabbing her mouth in fear of making sounds and attracting the beasts.

This scene tore Rex's heart apart completely.

Once Rex rescued the girl and sent her back to the buses, he started seeing other survivors but they were few and far between compared to the total number of civilians who originally lived in Bowling Town.

Rex knew without a doubt that after today, Bowling Town would never be the same again. After searching for some more, he finally deviated to his home.

Like the other houses, Cassandra and Ben's home was demolished by the beasts but what surprised Rex was that his home still stood intact.

Curious and suspicious, Rex went closer before going inside the house. His intuition reacted slower like it was being suppressed by something but when Rex fully entered the house, this was when his danger sense spiked.

"Danger!"

Every hair in Rex's body stood on end as he was about to retreat but he could not as a Kunai knife accelerated forward before cutting a scar across his cheek.

Rex froze and looked ahead; this was when the illusion shattered.

When Rex's eyes focused, he saw that his home was already surrounded by assassins. Assassins in black cloaks, black hats, and black masks perched around the walls of the house like birds of prey waiting for their prey to enter their trap.

With just one look, he easily counted 20 assassins, but they didn't matter since all his attention was drawn towards the 3 who stood at his door.

The tall and hefty man who stood in the middle was dressed in tight-fitting black and yellow assassin attire with a black with yellow stripes mask.

On his hand was a long assassin sword, Rex saw different signs of hidden daggers kept all over his body, and most predominant was the now blood-stained kunai knife that was attached to a long black chain.

Looking into his yellow eyes, Rex felt like he was looking into a furnace and he was petrified as he felt fear biting into his very soul.

Without needing any introduction, Rex knew that he was looking into the eyes of an extremely powerful advanced mystic warrior.

The hooded man in black who stood beside this powerful assassin, and the hooded lady who stood to his left looked so weak and insignificant to Rex that he instantly ignored them as the subordinates but what he heard shocked him.

Scorpion, the tall assassin turned and spoke respectfully to the hooded man in black. "Master Arthur, this is your family's last target".

Though all Rex saw inside the hood was shadows, he still felt the young man inside grinning as a young voice reverberated the next moment.

"So, this is the last living scum of the Ancient Vector Family".

Once Rex heard this, his eyes widened as fear mixed with realization finally came over his face which was quickly followed by anger.

"Who are you?!" He growled.

"We are the Great Ancient Holmes Family, the conqueror of the age of awakening, and I, Arthur Holmes shall be your killer!"

Rex was about to speak but his agitated emotions made him lose control as he unconsciously activated some of the abilities of his unique skill.

[You have activated Upgrade Ability: Mind Time Travel!]

[You have activated Upgrade Ability: Spectator!]

[You have activated Upgrade Ability: Photographic Memory!]

Instantly, Rex's consciousness left the material world in his mind.

Bzzz!

Everywhere was covered by a bloody mist as he traveled through the world of his mind all the way to 2 decades ago when the killing of his kin was still rampant.

Whoosh!

The blonde-haired Vector clansman warrior tried to parry the thrown kunai knife, but it wrapped around his weapon before disarming him.

The next moment, an assassin donning black and yellow attire descended as a dagger cut across. This clansman instantly lost his head.

The others stood no chance as this assassin singlehandedly annihilated them all with his numerous daggers, his kunai knife, and his long sword.

When the massacre was over, his glowing yellow eyes became the last memory that followed these Vector clansmen to their graves.

Bzzz!

Time fast-forwarded to a decade later as another group of Vector clansmen were rounded up for slaughter, Rex's father was among them.

"Today shall mark the end of the Vector bloodline!" Rex in his spectator state froze as he heard a voice that was extremely similar to that of the young man who was currently speaking to him in reality.

"Is that him?"

Rex expected no response but his Photographic Memory ability enabled him to distinguish the difference, the man who killed his dad was the father of the young man who was currently speaking to him.

The father of the young man was the culprit behind his father's death!

Crack!

The mind-traveling shattered as Rex returned to reality only to see the hooded young man already standing before him with a dagger to his neck.

Rex spat at him hatefully. "Even if you kill me, I will be reborn!"

The young man chuckled. "It seems that daddy did not tell you stories about the Ancient Holmes Family, you will soon know why we are your nemesis".

Instead of cutting Rex with the dagger immediately, the young man stalled as he instead placed his index finger on Rex's head.

Rex's vision instantly turned black.

[Danger! Danger! Danger!]

The system sent monotonous danger alerts but Rex could see none of them, he was now petrified in the world of his mind that he always felt like a fish in water in, he was petrified by an intruding mystic ability.

In the world of his mind, for the first time, Rex saw his upgrade mystic ability which glowed a vibrant green. Beside it was a black color which signified the Blackfire mystic ability but now, an intruding blue energy invaded.

For the first time in his life, Rex felt the fear that all his ancestors felt before dying as his green mystic ability energy started being sucked by the blue energy.

Rex felt like his soul, his very essence was being sucked away.

He gasped for breath, he gasped for life.

The green energy of his mystic ability was almost sucked away completely by the blue energy as in reality, Arthur finally motioned to cut off his neck but in the nick of time, a dagger with a snake head collided against Arthur's dagger.

"Rex, snap out of it, fight for your life!"

Rex heard a familiar voice and instantly, the grip on his mind was shattered as the green energy of his mystic ability returned to him while his eyes opened.

Rex saw Cassandra soaring through the skies with eyes like those of a snake.
