Rex was on edge.
It was a natural response of the living body.
He's in an unfamiliar place, an unfamiliar realm, and is also wounded.
Had he not possessed the Invincible residual strand, the leftover from the Invincible II item, protecting him from any lethal attack at all times, he wouldn't be so relaxed to close his eyes and bathe under the shine of the moon like this.
Coupled with his heightened senses, there's little to no reason for him to be too uptight.
But now, he was attacked.
Rex saw the tip of a needle-blade flying towards him with precision.
Despite the ambush, his reflex wasn't to be underestimated.
Swoosh!
He dodged the blade with a small tilt of his head.
Blinking, he wanted to immediately scan the surroundings—with the System, thinking that it was the same force as the one back in the House of Aurelius' mansion, but he soon realized that it wasn't. It was a woman who threw this needle-blade, Princess Davina.
