Chapter 904: Raven’s Deductions
Raven is a peak of his life…
Despite his actual age, considering how long cultivators’ lifespans were at his realm, he’s fairly young. He has a loving wife, a cute and sensible daughter. Friends who had been with him at every step of the way. People who worshipped him like a god…
And he’s practically the strongest man alive in whole of Divine Realm. Reigning as the true leader of his race and basking in glory which will last for eons.
Truly, he’s living his best life, and there’s practically no reason for him to feel worried or uneasy about anything…
…except, he does.
And today, which was supposed to be just another regular day…he feels a strong unease stemming from the depths of his being, and he has no idea why.
One has to know that, in Raven’s current position, there’s little to no threat to him within the Divine Realm…
But what about outside? Now, that’s a different topic altogether.
As someone who bears the Divinity of Chaos, Raven’s sensitive to the changes of the world. His perception already grew way past the realm and could feel the subtle dangers beyond it.
Nothing could make him feel this sort of unease other than humanity’s fated enemies…
The Abyssals.
Raven’s gaze pierced through the horizon. In his eyes, the entirety of the Divine Realm was reflected along with its peculiarities.
He could sense the dread creeping closer to his home and it chilled his heart to be honest.
It wasn’t only him who felt this…
Luna, his friends and other Divine Knights also felt the same way. They could only sense it faintly, not as good as Raven could but at least it was something.
The sensation was uncomfortable. The unease made it impossible for them to stay still.
Out of nowhere, Luna entered their room and found his husband staring at the distant horizon. She stood behind him and was hesitant to ask about it. Shortly later, their friends also came and similarly, they looked at Raven.
“They’re coming…” Raven sighed as he turned around to face them.
Instantly, the atmosphere around the room turned gloomy. Everyone tensed up. Raven didn’t have to go on a detail since they already knew what he meant.
Still, this wasn’t a good news to any of them…
“…it’s too fast.” Luna scowled, feeling particularly troubled by this.
“How did they managed to find out already? There shouldn’t have been any clues for them to use!” Paul exclaimed.
“I’ve deduced it…they encountered a local turned Outsider. They deciphered this person’s memories and managed to figure out the rough coordinates of our realm.” Raven replied.
Indeed, Raven already deduced how they were discovered. It was particularly troublesome since this was something that is completely out of his control. Sure, he didn’t leave any traces behind that they can use but that doesn’t apply to others as well.
“We should enter a state of war preparation then.” Mark decisively said.
Raven shook his head and said: “Not for now.”
“Why?” Anne was puzzled.
The others were puzzled too, why didn’t Raven want to mobilize the troops and prepare for confrontation? Is he giving up on their home? That can’t be right?
“It will take them a long time before they come.” Raven stated to clarify his intentions. “For some reason, they didn’t use the warping mechanism. Probably because the coordinates they received were unclear or the warp isn’t working properly.”
“Either way, it will take them around 200-300 years before they arrive.” Raven stated, “It’s unwise to alert the troops this early, we’ll just disturb their peace and they won’t be able to use this brief time to increase their strength.”
“Sure, the pressure might squeeze out their still dormant potential but it’s going to be forced. That might ruin them instead of helping them and we don’t want that.”
“Let them have this peace for now. It won’t be too late to alert them later when the enemy’s close.”
Right. Raven wanted to give them sometime to enjoy this peace. Even though their threat is already coming their way, they have time anyway. Let them have this peace for now since, who knows? Maybe it’s their last.
“Are you sure that’s the move?” Ellen asked.
“Frankly? I’m not too sure. But it’s going to be fine.” Raven assured them, “There’s no use on alerting them this soon. Even if we do, they will doubt us anyway since the enemies aren’t here yet. They’ll only believe it when they see it. It won’t be too late by then, trust me.”
“Besides, if we can sense this vague unease. The other Divine Knights could too. They would do something discretely about it. There’s no need for us to cause unnecessary panic for now.”
Raven finally managed to convince them about this. That doesn’t mean that they weren’t wary of this though.
Their home in is grave peril, none of them would be able to sit still and be at ease.
“I’ll go check on the kids, I’ll try giving them some pointers and hope that they can increase their strength even just for a bit.” Paul interjected. The kids he was referring to were the youth that the Dawn Council were nurturing.
“I’ll come with you.” Ellen joined him.
“Mark, let’s check the defenses. I want to make sure their working as intended.” Anne suggested and Mark agreed.
“I’ll go see the state of the realm. I think we can prioritize some missions in the meant to mend the gaps of the realm.” Laughing Dragon suggested.
Seeing all of them leave in haste, Raven shook his head once more.
He took Luna’s hand and they sat on the balcony overlooking Raven’s territory.
“The crest is almost full…” Luna whispered softly to him. Her words had a deeper meaning to them but Raven just nodded at her.
“That’s good. If things go south, that can be our last resort.” Raven stated.
Luan tightened her grip on his hand and hesitantly asked: “Aren’t planning on going into seclusion? You said it yourself, we still have time. Maybe you can succeed this time?”
Raven looked at her and said: “I will but not today. I’m afraid that if I go into seclusion right now, I won’t emerge until the dawn of the Realm War. I’ll be leaving you and our daughter very lonely…”
“Oh, you.” Luna smiled lovingly at him. “Don’t worry about us any more. I’ going to be fine. Vanessa’s a sensible child. She’s already matured. I’m sure she’ll understand.”
“I know that.” Raven nodded, “But I do want to spend some quality time with the both of you before I do so. Call her here, we’ll go roam the Divine Realm for a year then I’ll enter seclusion.”
Luna just smiled and did what he said.
Raven, despite being troubled by the approaching threat, still chose to indulge his family first before anybody else.
At this point, this should be given. Raven’s family would always be his priority. Even if the world is about to end, he wouldn’t hesitate to put them first before himself and everyone else.
Vanessa came right after she was called. She was surprised by this impromptu vacation but she wasn’t one to complain.
Since the three of them already decided on it, they didn’t waste time anymore and began roaming the Divine Realm. They enjoyed a quality time together, enjoying a brief moment of peace without worrying about anything.
Raven and Luna re-kindled their love for each other, not that it faded but just for the hell out of it. They even adopted some mortal identities and had a wedding in some worlds. Their weddings weren’t too glamorous. Sometimes, Vanessa would act as the priest to preside over the ceremony.
How shocked would these people be if they realized that Divine Realm’s strongest couple just visited their world and decided to have their wedding in there? Thankfully, they were wearing disguises or else, it would’ve resulted into a realm-wide chaos.
Their time was short but they did have fun. This was something they needed due to their heavy responsibilities.
Time passed by rather quick and before anybody realized that they were gone, they’ve already returned.
Vanessa left her parents and went back to her friends, leaving Luna and Raven on their own.
And just because they can’t get enough of each other, they decided to spend ten days and ten nights doing nothing but tossing and turning under sheets. By the end of their passionate time, their room was a hot mess but the two of them didn’t care…
As they lay down next to each other with bodies still covered with a faint sheen of sweat and slightly out of breath, Raven gave Luna and sweet kiss and said:
“Hopefully we can have another child after this.”
Luna smiled in splendor and couldn’t help but say: “Yeah, that would be perfect.”
“…it’s time.” Raven whispered.
“Mn, I know. Go ahead. I wish you luck. Don’t worry about us. We’ll hold down the fort while you’re away.”
“Thank you. I love you.”
“I love you too.”
“Alright, I’m off.”
After saying that, Raven took a quick bath, dressed-up and proceed to enter a very long seclusion…
