Lord of the Karmic Fate-Chapter 80 Start Of The First Round!
"Thomas, you don't have to look at us like that. We are well aware of just how risky it is to enter that Domain now that it has evolved." Raven asserted to which Thomas seemingly calmed down.
"Good." Thomas sighed softly before he shifted his now usually collected gaze at Luna and raised a brow, "Shouldn't you be in-"
"Raven asked my help that is why I have come back." Luna quickly said, already knowing what Thomas wished to ask.
Thomas' brow raised even more, but when he saw Raven nodding he sighed and said, "I see, so that's how it is. Well, at least now that you are here I need to ask for your help. Another Realm Gate appeared in the proximity which waits to be cleared."
"I can help with that if you want." Raven offered him, but surprisingly Thomas shook his head.
"Although I appreciate your offer, I need your help somewhere else. We need your gloves' ability to duplicate and enhance the treasures we have collected and accumulated so far."
Raven felt slightly disappointed as he wished to test out his newfound strength at least a little bit, but as he knew with his help the Black Moon Guild could become even stronger than before he just nodded.
"Perfect. Then, please, follow me." Thomas smiled and brought the two before the entrance of the Black Moon Guild where he sent Luna away before bringing Raven to the warehouse.
At the moment the doors were opened and the light was turned on, a massive room filled with thousands of items presented itself before Raven, showing Raven the wealth the Black Moon Guild possessed was by no means small.
Hell, there were even numerous crates on the sides, unknown just how many more treasures were placed in them!
"Umm... I hope you can remember that if we want to use the full potential of my gloves we have to bring all these into a Realm Domain." after walking inside, Raven glanced at Thomas and pointed out.
"I know, that is why we will transport all these to the second closest Realm Domain from us." Thomas smiled and clapped his hands, immediately causing people to walk inside and start bringing things outside. 𝒇𝐫ℯ𝑒𝒘ℯ𝑏n𝑜ѵ𝐞l.c𝗼𝗺
"Let us help them, shall we?" Thomas smiled and quickly picked up a small crate which he instantly handed over to Raven.
Raven, of course, sighed and with a forced smile began to bring the things outside, placing them on trucks, and going back inside.
He repeated this about a hundred times over and after 30 minutes they were on their way to the Realm Domain.
Soon enough, after about an hour of travel, they finally reached the Realm Domain, which surprisingly was at the bottom of a large crater.
The crater was not deep at all, but was incredibly massive, to say the least. While it was around a hundred meters or so in-depth, its radius was several miles!
It was called the Crimson Pit, an area that was formed during the Third World War and where hundreds of thousands lost their lives.
The place was literally filled with rivers of blood and piles of corpses, painting the whole crater in crimson and filling the air with the putrid smell of iron and rotted flesh!
Even at this very moment, Raven could see how the rocks were crimson while the air for some reason felt heavy and suffocating.
Stopping the vehicles about a hundred meters away from the edge of the pit, Thomas jumped out of the truck in the front and signaled for everyone to start working.
In a flash, hundreds of crates were placed onto the ground from where they were brought inside the Realm Domain, which, in fact, made every hair on Raven's body stand to end.
Once he stepped through the almost invisible barrier around the pit, the sight before Raven changed completely.
What lay before his eyes now was not a massive empty crater, but an almost seemingly endless lake with a single island visible somewhere in its center in the far distance.
However, it was by no means any ordinary lake.
First of all, the moment Raven stepped through the dome, he found himself on a small shore where instead of sand, what was below his feet was shattered and almost completely smashed bones.
Secondly, the lake in front of him was not crystal clear water; it was crimson blood, so thick that it was almost akin to mud!
Furthermore, to make the whole scenery even more bizarre, there was a single bridge connecting the island and the shore, one that instead of wood or perhaps bones, was made out of rotten flesh!
The whole Realm Domain looked so terrifying and disturbing that one would rather throw up right on the spot before turning around and running away than stay there!
"This place still gives me the chill, no matter how many times I have seen it." walking beside Raven and placing down several crates, Thomas sighed and shook his head.
"Though, you don't have to worry. Until you stay here on the shore and don't try to cross that bridge, if you can even call that as such, you will be safe."
"Why? What will happen if I do?" Raven asked despite already knowing the answer.
Thomas gave Raven a sideways glance before he chuckled coldly and said, "Well, unless you are not above Rank 10 and possess a unique artifact that grants you the ability to breathe freely underwater, I would not recommend you try."
Then, he quietly added, "There are hundreds of creatures deep below the blood lake, so once you fall into it, you're as good as dead."
Upon hearing Thomas' words Raven swallowed nervously and nodded before proceeding to help bring all the crates inside the Realm Domain.
Once everything was inside, Raven summoned his gloves and began to work.
Time passed slowly, and hours were spent inside the Realm Domain with nothing but Raven walking around and touching things, either duplicating or enhancing them.
There were only a few times when he failed to do either of both, but it was so incredibly minuscule that it was literally pointless to care about it.
"Was this the last one?" grabbing a small crystal to enhance its effects once wielded, Raven raised his head and looked at Thomas beside him. 𝐟r𝒆ℯ𝘄𝑒𝒃𝚗𝒐𝘃e𝗹.c𝘰𝐦
"Yes, it seems so. Thank you very much." handing a crate to the recruit standing beside him, Thomas looked at Raven and bowed.
Raven just smiled and after he gave a final glance at the blood lake behind his back, he shuddered a little and said, "Let's go home. I am beat as hell..."
Thomas nodded and after checking that they have left behind nothing quickly walked out of the Realm Domain before ordering the recruits to steer away.
"Sigh... Finally! Some rest!" falling on the bed once he was back home, Raven buried his face into his pillow and in just mere seconds he fell asleep.

A day later.
After finally getting time to rest, Raven slept through an entire day, waking up with his pillow and sheet covered in a mixture of alive and sweat.
"Damn... I think this was the best sleep I have so far ever had." standing up after a big yawn, Raven walked into the bathroom and once he washed himself and brushed his teeth he decided to practice a little.
Of course, now that he was prohibited from entering the Realm Domain he could only use the facility he used with Kayn for the first time.
And to his surprise, when he entered the building he was surprised to see that Kayn was there, kicking and boxing a punching bag with Luna doing the same beside him.
"Look who decided to come back." halting his training after punching the equipment in front of him with great power, Kayn turned around and grabbed the towel beside him.
Luna also stopped, but instead of standing idly she ran before Raven and threw out a punch.
"!?"
Raven was surprised at first before he quickly snapped out of his daze and with swift motion stepped to the side, grabbed Luna's wrist, and twisted it behind her back.
"Oh? It seems like your reaction and body coordination became better. Good." Kayn smiled with satisfaction to which Raven smiled and let his little sister go.
However, just as he did, Luna immidieatly leaned forward and kicked backward which although caught Raven by surprise could still react in time and dodge.
"Good. Let me see what the two of you can do." Kayn smiled to which the two immidieatly began to spar with each other, improving their fighting skills and strength slowly but surely.
And just like that, several days have passed and the day that everyone has waited for finally arrived.
