Chapter 891: Vacation

With the seclusion of all Dawn Council Members over, there isn’t really much for them to do at this point.

The council could function on its own with barely any need for their presence, this was already proven with their recent absence. The headquarters were fine and there’s not much paper work needed to be taken care of.

Using this period of peace, the others decided that they should best spend it with family. And that’s precisely what they’re doing right now.

All of them, minus Raven and Laughing Dragon, brought the kids with them to roam Divine Realm. They wanted to spend quality time together while they still can since nobody knows when their enemies will come knocking at their door.

Laughing Dragon remained at the council to lead its operations. He doesn’t have a family to be with unfortunately, but he doesn’t seem to be bothered about that fact. He values his work and responsibilities in the council more than that.

As for Raven, well he’s going to have to spend most of his time in seclusion anyways.

Luna and Vanessa knew why since he told them. They knew that Raven was searching for a way to breakthrough to the Realm Beyond Divinity.

Its an impossible task for most people but Raven won’t allow that to stop him. He already has a clue on how he will get there, he just needed to iron out the finer details and eventually, he’ll get there.

Still, this is going to take a lot of time. There’s no precise timeframe since it’ll ultimately depend on Raven’s perception and hard work.

They already made him promise to come out every once in a while to breathe some air. Raven was already planning on doing that anyway so there no need to worry. He wasn’t thinking that he’ll be able to reach that stage in one sitting anyway.

Once they finished their talk, Raven didn’t waste time and returned back to his own seclusion.

As his seclusion occurred, there are some things that are happening to the people close to him.

First and foremost, Stephen finally decided to take the leap of faith and decided that he wanted to walk down the Path of Knighthood.

Stephen, just like what Raven predicted, informed his Avatar about his decision. And that very same day is when Stephen finally understood the weird things that occurred to him not too long ago.

No, Raven still hasn’t revealed his actual identity to Stephen. It is way too early for that. But Stephen did know that he, or his Avatar rather, is extremely powerful. So much so that he can look down on all cultivators that exists in the Grand Ancestral Plane.

Stephen also finally know that he encountered his inheritance way back then. Him and Raven become connected the moment he touched that orb, Raven just took his time in introducing Stephen to the world of cultivation in order to not shock him so much.

He also didn’t want to force Stephen into this path, he didn’t want to deprive him of his free will unlike other experts of his caliber.

Due to that, Stephen did become his disciple. He actually descended to his home in order to personally take him as a disciple.

The moment Stephen greeted his as Master, a Karmic Link was formed between them. Raven could instantly notice how different Stephen’s future became when the link was formed, but since he’s by his side, he’ll do his best to raise this little guy up to become a formidable person in future.

And just like that, Stephen’s training under Raven began. From theoretical knowledge down to practical exercised, Stephen faced it all. Raven didn’t hold back his punches which nearly drove Stephen to the brink of madness, the only salvation the kid has was the fact that he could truly feel himself getting more powerful as the day goes on.

His training is scheduled and monitored closely. Even if Raven wasn’t present on Stephen’s side, he has to follow the routine he was given or else he’ll be punished.

At the same time that Stephen’s training began, Kyle – Raven’s other disciple, fell into a trap that could potentially injure him gravely.

He and his team were chasing after a wanted criminal when Kyle suddenly triggered the trap set-up by the said criminal. Originally, the trap wasn’t deadly, in fact Kyle could’ve brute force his way out of it but a series of coincidences lead him very far away from home.

The criminal he was chasing had stolen a treasure that could be used to instantly travel to any place within the Divine Realm so long as the owner of said treasure had been in that place before.

Originally, the criminal was going to use this treasure to escape but before he could do so, Kyle intercepted him and his attack landed to the treasure which caused it to malfunction.

It killed the criminal but it also warped Kyle all the way to the Outer Worlds.

The Avatars already informed Raven about this, but Raven himself didn’t go out to save him.

The reason being is that, he could still sense where Kyle was. He isn’t too far away from the Divine Realm, in fact he’s close to the Outposts he built back then.

He’s in no grave danger so there’s no reason to go out and save him just yet. He left him there since Kyle could really use this as an experience to temper himself.

Kyle sadly has met some bottlenecks in his cultivation. He had been stuck for quite sometime now, and this situation might just be able to give him that necessary push to overcome his limits.

Still, Raven reminded him that he’s not allowed to make a breakthrough outside of the Divine Realm. If he did that, he’ll be branded as an Outsider and he’ll never be able to return.

Kyle acknowledged this and thus his adventures to the Outer Worlds promptly begins. He’ll be out here for a while, especially since he took it as a challenge to find his own way back eventually. f𝗿𝙚e𝙬𝗲𝑏𝒏𝑜ѵ𝑒𝗹. 𝒄𝑜𝘮

With Raven’s disciples having their own training, Vanessa herself fell into a bit of a dilemma.

She has been feeling weird ever since she saw her mother came out of her seclusion.

Luna has the Crest of Order. The very thing that gives Vanessa those weird feeling.

She can’t articulate what exactly feels weird about it. On one side, she felt drawn into it like moth to the flames, on the other hand, it feels too much for her to handle.

This didn’t really prevented her from spending some quality time with Luna but it made things a bit awkward. The worst part of this is that, she doesn’t know why she’s feeling this.

She wanted to ask Luna about it, but for some reason, something prevents her from doing that. It’s either she can’t find the right timing to ask or the thought escapes her.

This hasn’t happened before, and that’s precisely why Vanessa doesn’t understand what’s going on.

She could probably ask her father about it but he’s in seclusion and would rarely come out. She didn’t want to disturb him if necessary given how risky it is. She didn’t want to be the cause of his failure.

All of this, basically made her set it all aside. She thought that its fine since it’s just mildly bothering her. She could deal with a little bit of discomfort so there’s no need to think too much about it.

Besides, if things goes rough, she could always go them for answers. It won’t be too late by then so she just threw it at the back of her head and just lived in the moment.

Right now, her along with her mom, aunts and best friends are roaming Divine Realm. They’re on a vacation, wearing disguises so as to experience a little bit of normalcy.

They went to places they’ve never been to before through the Realm Door. They mostly spend time looking for vistas and landmarks. Just admiring the beauty of Humanity’s home.

They’ve met several people, talked to them, listened to their mundane problems, had some enriching experiences that ultimately deepened their view at the world.

Its strange since they didn’t go out to fight. The trip itself was mostly relaxing and unwinding but it gave the youngsters a more profound understanding than a hot-blooded fight.

As for the Adults themselves, this was a vacation for them. The girls went shopping for the most part and the boys just travelled around, looking for places to chill and relax.

They don’t have a specific destination. They just went along with their impulses since there isn’t anywhere in the Divine Realm they couldn’t go.

Eventually, their vacation lead back to them visiting their home. The Grand Ancestral Plane.

Vanessa was initially shocked to discover her father’s Avatar somewhere in here but when he told her about his possible Legacy Disciple, she decided to not interfere for now.

She’ll meet this little junior eventually. For now, he still has a long way to go and Vanessa has a vacation to return to.
