Lord of the Karmic Fate-Chapter 113 Guardian Summoner

Flying through the air with great speed, Raven watched with an indifferent face as scenery after scenery vanished outside his window before they finally began to slow down.

"We have arrived." stopping the vehicle right at the foot of a great mountain, Old Dan glanced at Raven and climbed out.

"This whole mountain is the Realm Domain?" Raven raised a brow before he asked, "But I can't see any barrier. Why is that?"

"It is because the Realm Domain is not this mountain nor it is on top of it. It's inside it." Old Dan explained with a calm smile and pointed at something at the side.

It was a large cave entrance, opening a wide and eerily dark path inside the massive mountain.

"The Realm Domain is inside there?" Raven felt stupified as this was his first time seeing a Realm Domain located within a mountain.

"Try and get used to such things. There are Realm Domains in all kinds of places such as volcanos, deep under the earth, and even in the sky!" Old Dan said as he opened the vehicle's door.

"Anyways, as I said I have to report to the Realm Association about the Realm Mutation. You can decide to stay here and wait for Luna or enter the Realm Domain and remain at its entrance until they finish clearing it. It is your choice, just don't go after them."

And with a grim face, he said, "With your strength, you would die without knowing what claimed your life."

"Sure, I will be careful." Raven nodded nonchalantly to which Old Dan narrowed his eyes before he sighed and shook his head.

"Then I will be on my way. After I took care of everything I will come back and pick you guys up."

After Old Dan sat inside the car and zoomed away with great speed, Raven shifted his gaze at the entrance of the cave and after pondering for a few seconds he decided to enter it.

'It is pretty dark in here.' Raven thought once he was inside the cave and took out the flashlight he got from his father.

'Much better.' a smile formed on Raven's face when he finally was able to see, however, not even after he took 3 steps the whole cave began to shake like crazy!

TREMBLE!!!

'Wha-' Raven staggered a little as he wished to keep his balance, however, just as he was about to succeed large debris fell from above and crashed onto his head.

Paff!

Lying on the ground with a slightly bleeding head, Raven groaned in pain while a panel popped up in his line of sight.

[Your Luck Energy had been boosted by 10%!]

'Amazing...' Raven groaned with pain as he stood, only to spot something shiny on the ground.

'What the hell is this?' Raven frowned and picked the shiny thing up.

'It looks to be some sort of crystal.' Raven thought to himself before he casually shrugged and put it into his pocket.

Perhaps once he leaves this cave he can give it to his father and use it for something, maybe selling it for good money. After all, it looked quite pretty and shiny.

Raven followed the path in silence and after walking for almost 30 minutes straight in silence he finally spotted the transparent barrier.

He finally reached the perimeter of the Realm Domain.

"Here I go..." after taking a deep breath as this will be his first time entering a Realm Domain that once belonged to an Azure Realm Gate, Raven took a step forward.

And in a flash, the whole scenery changed in front of him.

The path which was about three meters wide and about 5 meters tall broadened while instead of darkness what filled the place was a gentle blue light that was emitted by both the beautiful blue crystals from the sides and the blue plants on the ground!

There were even trees with gently flickering blue leaves, giving the whole environment a pleasant feeling.

"Woah..." Raven let out an awed gasp before another tenor shook the earth below his feet.

However, as this time he was on guard he didn't stagger at all nor did he sustain a blow on his head because of a falling rock.

"Now then, what should I do?" Raven thought to himself, pondering whether he should go and find Luna or not. After all, he was in a Realm Domain where creatures with a Rank between 40 and 50 lurked.

"Let's see what I get from my throw first and I will decide after that," Raven mumbled and once he held his dice in his hand threw it.

Of course, it was needless to say it has immediately fallen on the four stars.

Whoosh!

[Relic: Guardian Summoner]

Grade: Arcane

Form: Complete

Description: A unique Relic that can summon a single Guardian that obeys every word of its master.

<Activation: 10,000 units of Mystique. After activation, the Guardian requires 100 units of Mystique every second!>

<Cooldown: If the Guardian dies the Activation requirements double!>

-------------------------

"Oh?" a curious smile formed on Raven's face as he held a small item in hand, one that had a similar appearance akin to a flute.

"Do I have to blow in it to use it?" Raven mumbled, however, as 100 units of Mystique was not a small amount for every passing second he decided not to use it... yet.

After inspecting the small white wooden flute that was covered in small petals, each having various colors, Raven began to walk, deciding to find Luna instead of waiting.

'Just as father said it, Territory-type Realm Domain are truly places where one feels as if they are in a different world. This whole area is beautiful.'

Walking in a straight line slowly with a raised guard, Raven watched as more and more trees, plants, and crystals appeared around him, each flickering with the gentle color of blue.

The deeper he went the more he had this feeling of not walking inside a mountain but traveling in a completely different world, just like in all the other Territory-type Realm Domains. f𝑟e𝒆𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗oѵ𝐞𝗹.c૦𝑚

However, unfortunately, this sensation only lasted for 10 minutes as after that Raven finally met with his first enemy... if he could even say that.

Standing still behind a tree, Raven watched coldly as about 50 meters away from him a large plant size of a truck and the appearance of a sunflower was visible. The only difference was that where its seeds should have been there was a massively gaping mouth while the petals around it had numerous small razor-sharp teeth.

Even its roots were visible, seemingly using it as legs as Raven could see it slowly moving forward.

'Rank 46? No, maybe a little bit above it?' Raven scowled before he raised his flute before his mouth.

Although he was confident that he could take care of it as it didn't seem to be able to move fast, he had no clue whatsoever what it was capable of doing. He had no information about it at all which included its weakness and of course its strengths and abilities.

And for that reason, as it was too dangerous to fight something he didn't know anything about yet, he will use his Relic and order he summon to fight it.

With that in mind, Raven placed his lips before the flute and after taking in a deep breath he blew into it while also channeling his Mystique into it.

Whoosh! f𝐫ee𝘄ℯ𝚋no𝐯𝐞l.c𝘰m

At the very moment, as the sharp sound whistled through the air, attracting the attention of the plant in the distance, Raven watched as with a flash of crimson light a small figure materialized before him out of empty air.

However, once the light vanished and he had a better look to see what it was, his face immidieatly stiffened.

"What the... Hell?"

Before him on the ground, a puffy little bird stood with a sleep face, its feathers black as ink while the chest area of his... or her? had the color white.

It was puffy, fluffy, and... cute?

The hell!?

Raven thought he would be able to summon something even more fierce-looking, and yet he got... this. Can this little thing even fight at all?

As he thought about this he suddenly felt the urge to facepalm himself, however, when he noticed the plant in the distance approaching them he sighed deeply.

'Well, it is a creature summoned by an Arcane Grade Relic. It can't be useless, can it?' Raven thought and pointed at the plant.

"Go and kill it."

Upon hearing his voice, the puffy little thing glanced at the large plant, and after a small while it fluttered its wings, flying toward it slowly and lazily.

Looking at it now, the way it struggled to fly made Raven facepalm himself even more.

However, just when he was ready to accept reality and accept the worst, witnessing the little thing's death, something he never in his wildest dream could have expected to see, happened.

And in the most brutal way possible at that...
