Chapter 814: Oh, Sweetheart!





Time continued its flow. Before Raven knows it, another year has passed with him still stuck in the project. 

He was halfway done through the project. His progress was slower than what he initially expected but that's because of the changes he had to apply with his recent breakthrough on his Sealing Arts. 

Raven had to somewhat change the initial structure and introduce his new creations to the mix. That required him to go back in the beginning. He didn't necessarily have to start over though, he just filled the visible gaps on his previous work using the new batch of seals and runes. Once he's done, he progressed again. 

Still, two years have already passed and his only just halfway through the project. This doesn't necessarily mean that he'll need another two years to finish everything. It might take him more than two years or less, it truly depends on the development of the Grand Seal. 

His speed of laying down runes isn't constant. The time it needs depends on each brick of the Eternal Division Wall. Sometimes he needs an entire day, sometimes he needs to. Sometimes, it will only took him an hour, the fastest would be minutes. It's not constant and Raven didn't really have any problems with that. 

The Eternal Division Wall is a complex thing. There is a reason why Outsiders and Space Beasts failed to destroy or infiltrate it most of the times. Raven knew this so he really didn't have any complaints. 

Still, even with him being busy in here, Raven never forgets his duty to his Sect and the Dawn Council – which are both thriving under his lead. 

Starting with the Ancient Elysium Sect. 

With the sect no longer being a reclusive sect, many people expressed their dėsɨrė to join it. The sect was now accepting disciples again. Thanks to the reforms that Raven implemented, the Ancient Elysium Sect is now considered as one of the Hegemonic Powerhouse for the Divine Realm. 

Previously, the stayed on the shadows, but not that they've stepped into the limelight, they stole everybody's thunder. The resources and infrastructures that the Ancient Elysium Sect has are top notch – of course it has to be, Raven wouldn't settle for anything less. 

With all sorts of equipment and training environments prepared for their disciples, nobody has an excuse to be weak. The qualitative strength of the sect is at an all time high and it won't show signs of stopping. Especially now that their disciples can go out and experience the world on their own. 

Learning values and important lessons about life will benefit them greatly for their future progress. In addition to that, they disciples are included amongst the list of people who contributes greatly when it comes to clearing up missions from the Dawn Council – which in turn, makes Divine Realm a better place for everybody. 

As for the Dawn Council, well they've already solidified people's opinion about them. 

At this point in time, nobody doubted their intentions anymore. Nobody doubted their decisions and they position as Humanity's Leaders. 

Pretty much every single person – who doesn't live under a rock, is aware of what they're doing. They seen them working tirelessly since they sat on their positions. They practically were never idle. Always doing something that will benefit Divine Realm as whole. 

The Dawn Council never really preached about their actions. They let their actions do the talking for them. They never shied away from taking responsibilities or taking the lead. Unknowingly, this inspired a lot – and this can't be stressed enough, of people. 

The Dawn Council never forced anyone to act along their whims, they never forced anybody to obey them. They gave everyone a chance to choose and never their freedom at the process.

There are people who doesn't want to do anything? That's fine. They don't have to if they don't want to. 

There are people who are eager to follow their footsteps and make their home a better place for everyone? Cool. More power to them. 

This is how the Dawn Council worked so far. And it's working brilliantly. Raven's idea about not forcing anyone and just being an example worked like a charm. 

Many people were moved by the council's sincerity. They've sung praises about them and even contributed to the cause. The Dawn Council has never been stingy to these people, they rewarded their efforts handsomely and that made them want to do more. 

It was a rewarding experience, and as time goes by, the troubles that had been plaguing the Divine Realm for ages are now being solved. 

Information about the Danger Zones are being compiled and used. Criminals are being apprehended. Natural Treasure Deposits are being preserved. Geniuses are being raised and so on. The Dawn Council never held back when it comes to nurturing their home. 

Some people already made bold proclamations. They said that under the Dawn Council's lead, the Divine Realm as a whole will reach heights it has never seen before. 

Raven is now hailed and worshipped as Humanity's Supreme Leader, the Human Emperor – some says. 

Well, it's still a little too early for him to arise to that title. It's best to not get ahead of himself. For now, they're going at a great pace and this trend should continue in this manner. 

Soon though…soon, Raven will eventually rise-up to that. 



Today was one of the rare days that Luna didn't have any work to do. 

After they've returned to the Divine Realm, she's been so busy that she almost forgot what a good sleep was like. She stayed up for days on end most of the times, swamped with work and extremely busy. 

The only times when she can rest is when she eats, even that has become a luxury when they've replaced the Dawn Council. 

So whenever a miracle happens – i.e. Luna doesn't have work to do. She doesn't hesitate to spend it in the best way she can. 

And that is by locking herself in the room where the Heavenly Mirror is in and watching over her precious daughter that she misses day in and day out. 

Today was just like most of those days. Luna sat inside the room staring at the large mirror that displayed her lovely child going about her day as she herself take some time to eat something at least. 

"Uh…" Luna's expression was unreadable as she stared at the mirror. 

She doesn't exactly know what kind of face she wants to make right now. Does she feel amused? Surprised? Stunned? Should she find this situation cute? Hilarious? Funny? Or should she be upset or mad? Luna truly doesn't know.

Vanessa was holding a boy's hand. 

The boy wasn't Paul and Ellen's son – Richard, Vanessa's best friend. The boy was someone neither Luna and Raven knows. 

"Should I be worried?" Luna asked this to herself as she stared at the sweet smile on her daughter's face. "Maybe I should get worried."

Luna then remembered that Raven probably doesn't know about this and her face blanched.

"Oh scratch that, I am definitely worrying." 

Luna bit her lips and started sweating a bit. 

She continued watching over her daughter. Seeing her skip and jump around with her trusty cloud following her in every step.

Well, Vanessa looked happy at least. 

She has been giggling non-stop as she played with this boy. They're playing catch but not the regular one. They're practically trying destroy each other but that's besides the point. 

Vanessa looked happy at least. 

But see, if her father sees this, he definitely wouldn't be happy. 

Oh. Luna can already predict what he's going to do and she already feels stressed. 

Once Raven discovers this? He might just casually send down a Heavenly Tribulation for the poor innocent boy while saying: 'Oops! My bad.'

"Sweetheart." Luna softly called out, grimacing and painfully aware that her child can't possibly hear her right now.

"Oh, sweetheart. Don't you think it's a little bit early for you to have a boyfriend?" Luna felt jittery on her seat, she did a brief scan of her surroundings and made sure that of her husband's Avatars were nearby. 

They were not. Which made her sigh in relief. But just in case, she sealed the door for privacy. 

"Look, sweetheart." Luna massaged her temples, "Mommy isn't against this. Well, not really."

"…definitely not as much as your Daddy. That's for sure." Luna bit her thumbnail. "I'm not worried about you, neither me or your father could possibly hurt you. That boy however…" 

"You know what, I'm not even going to think about it." Luna shrugged. "I'm just not. I'll just try my best to reel in your father's…thirst for blood. I can handle him…I think." 

"Oh my sweet child." Luna ġrȯȧnėd. "I hope this is just a misunderstanding on my part." 

Luna kept watching. She felt a bit relieved that Vanessa isn't as sad as the last time she saw her personally. She's making progress and she's living her best life. She's being a child and that's everything Luna could ask for at the very least. 

That being said, Luna just can't stop worrying…she's a mother, she'll always worry about things.

"…maybe they're just really good friends….?"
