Lord of the Karmic Fate

After conquering the Crimson Gate, Raven and the rest were brought back to Nova City where they were able to report back everything that happened during their mission while also collecting their rewards.

As for the news about a Crimson Gate getting conquered and turned into a Realm Domain, was needless to say, spread every direction like wildfire, allowing the whole world to know about the feat Raven and the rest has achieved!

"What? Another Crimson Gate had been conquered? Where?"

"In the Southern Fields!"

"What?! Did they conquer a Crimson Gate within the Abandoned Desert? I thought that place was forbidden to enter because of how large the number of Realm Gates and Realm Domains located there truly is."

"It was the Realm Association who conquered the Crimson Gate and not any of the top guilds. Here, check the Rankers' names out."

"Ethereal Musician Dax, Ancient Summoner Min Chen, White Paladin Canwin... These names... They are all S Rank and from the top Guilds! Hell, even Silver Death Luna and Formless Spirit Felix are listed here."

"Yeah. Though, look at the bottom."

"Hm? Luck Cursed... Luck Cursed? Who the hell is he?"

"Dunno, but according to some rumors he was the one who truly conquered the Realm Gate, and all alone at that!"

"What? From where did you take that bullshit?"

"...The internet?"

Similar conversations to these happened all around the world, however, the majority just ignored the rumors. As for the lesser, while they tried to believe in them they hardly doubted that there really was an individual who could single-handedly conquer a Crimson Gate with six Ring Marks.

"What do you think?"

Sitting on a large sofa with a calm expression, a man stared at the holographic image of Raven while beside him on a device a woman could be seen. However, as there was almost no light around her, her facial expression and face were hidden completely.

"It's hard to tell, but he is definitely someone with an S Rank candidate."

"And what about the rumors?"

Upon hearing the question, the woman fell into silence before she giggled softly, "If what they say is really true, then there is a very high possibility he is an SS Rank candidate."

"Have you checked his data within the Realm Association?"

"I did, however, there is nothing about him despite many asserting him they have seen him taking the Evaluation Test."

"So those old geezers have classified his data, huh?"

"It seems so," the woman nodded softly, earning another hum from the man.

"Well, let's wait for the time being, and let's decide once we see his true worth."

"Understood."

Inside a luxurious restaurant.

"Hey, slow down a little will you?" staring at Raven with a dumbfounded look, Luna was ready to pull the plate away from his brother.

"I'm... I'm sorry." showing a wry smile as he swallowed the food, Raven looked at the food in front of him and said, "Though, I just can't help it. The food here is just simply too delicious."

"I know, but this way you will only choke to death." Luna sighed helplessly to which Raven just laughed and stuffed more food into his mouth.

It seemed that ever since he unlocked his seal, for some reason his appetite increased several folds and he could easily eat 10 times more than an average human.

After eating several plates under the disbelieving eyes of both the waitresses and guests, Raven paid for the food and shortly after left the restaurant.

"What should we do now?" walking on the street, Luna glanced at Raven curiously.

"First, I want to collect my rewards. But for that, we have to find a Realm Domain,

"A Realm Domain? That won't be necessary." Luna suddenly said, surprising Raven.

Upon seeing Raven's eyes Luna chuckled softly and explained, "Instead of going into Realm Domains, we can just simply go and find a Practice Ground."

"A Practice Ground?" Raven raised a brow.

"Yes. Just like the Evaluation Hall within the Realm Association, Practice Grounds are areas where one can get access to their Avatar Status, including their Artifact, Rune Marks, Relics, and Traits."

"Yeah, now that you say it, I felt a little confused about why and how I was able to use my strength as if I was within a Realm Domain." Raven hummed quietly, now finally understanding the reason.

It seemed there actually existed special Items or Relics that could create a small "domain" where one could use their powers as if they were within either Realm Domains or Realm Games!

With this in mind, Raven was quickly brought to a Practice Ground by Luna, where not so surprisingly they had to pay for their stay.

"One hour please." once inside a large building, Luna handed her credit card to the young woman behind the desk, who accepted it with a gentle smile.

"Once your time is up, you will be notified to leave through this. Of course, you can always decide to extend your stay whenever you want." the young lady explained with a smile as she handed Luna a small circular device with a timer on it.

"Sure. Thank you." Luna nodded and walked away with Raven.

"Practice Ground Number 11... Practice Ground Number 11... Practice Grou-, found it! It's this one!" arriving before a glass door with a large number 11 on it, Luna opened it and walked inside.

Raven followed after her closely, however, when he was inside was surprised to see that the interior of the room was by no means small. It was at least the size of a basketball court with the walls and ceiling fortified by alloys.

Furthermore, the moment he stepped through the door, he felt how his temporarily sealed power got unsealed, just like when he used to enter Realms.

"See? I told you. It would have been just a waste of time searching for a Realm Domain."

"Yeah, you're right." Raven nodded and once he made sure there were no security cameras inside, he summoned his Collector's Gloves and began to collect his rewards.
