"It's over?" watching as they were teleported back before the Realm Gate with their clothes surprisingly intact and clean, Luna sighed with relief and hugged his brother's arm exhaustedly.
"Here you are! Now you are fucking dead bitch! I will definitely break your arm and skin you alive!" as Raven was looking at Luna's happy face with a soft smile, suddenly the voice of one of the gangsters sounded from his side, making his face turn grave once again.
"Let's see what the fuck you will do now! There are no Artifacts, no nothing here to make you strong!" Cade hissed coldly as he approached Luna with bloodshot eyes, his friends following from behind surprisingly having the same enraged expression as him!
Luna's eyes flashed coldly for a second before they turned puzzled and looked at Cade with deep confusion.
"Huh? What are you ta-" Luna wished to ask a question, only to see as the moment Cade already arrived in front of her he clenched his right fingers into a tight fist and threw a punch at her.
Bam!
"And what the fuck are you doing, huh?" Cade narrowed his eyes at Raven who all of a sudden pulled Luna behind his back and let Cade punch him in the face instead.
Raven, whose face was just smacked to the side, slowly turned his head at Cade, his gaze scarily cold at this moment.
"I should be the one asking that from you," Raven spoke with a low tone of voice, surprising Cade for a second before making him even angrier than before and propelling him to throw out another punch.
However, just as he could have done so, suddenly Bill's loud shout came from behind Cade's back, forcing him to halt his actions just in time.
"Cade! Cut it out already, they are coming! Let's get the fuck out of here before it is too late!"
Cade, who was just about to start a fight with Raven looked into the distance, and seeing how a group of vehicles was approaching them he could only clench his teeth firmly in frustration before spitting at Raven and running away.
"You okay? Your mouth is bleeding." looking at Raven with a worried look, Luna took out a tissue from her pocket and used it to gently wipe the flowing blood off her brother's mouth.
"Thank you." Raven showed a smile, but not even a second after he said those words he watched how the Realm Gate beside him began to tremble before his vision blurred for a second as he was teleported away.
It seemed, just like previously, now that they have completed the Realm Game the Realm Gate will open and the Realm Domain will be formed.
However, what he did not expect was that the very moment he was teleported away, something from the side crashed into him with great momentum.
BAM!
"Raven!" seeing how a car hit Raven and sent his body flying like a ragdoll, Luna became terrified and immediately ran beside him, only to see him struggling on the ground with a pained expression.
"Fuck... From where did those two come from?" the driver cursed out with wide eyes and watched as the individual sitting on his side jumped out of the car and quickly ran beside Raven and Luna.
"L-Lucas?" seeing the familiar face, Luna felt scarcely surprised while Lucas just nodded and quickly started to examine Raven with sharp eyes.
"Sigh... Thank god..." after remaining silent for a few seconds, Lucas' nervous face finally relaxed and showed a calm smile, "Luckily the driver was not going fast, so except for a few fractured bones and bigger bruises, he will be fine."
"Though, we still have to bring you to a hospital for a check-up."
Luna upon hearing Lucas' words, who she knew was also a very professional and well-renowned doctor, sighed with relief before directing a cold and piercing stare at the man who just hit Raven a few moments ago.
"Fucking... Hell..." Raven cursed out loud as he was helped onto his feet with Lucas' and Luna's help, grabbing his side with a rather painful expression.
"Can you walk?" Lucas asked to which Raven nodded.
Lucas sighed once again as this was another sign things were not as severe as he initially believed, "Good, I will take you to the hospital. As for the things here, I will call Dan to send someone here while I am away."
Luna nodded and once she helped Raven to sit in the backseat she went around the car and sat beside him. As for Lucas, after giving a few orders to the new recruits of the Black Moon Guild he quickly sat inside the car and drove off toward the closest hospital.

Several hours have passed since the accident and Raven was diagnosed with three fractured ribs which luckily were not grave. After getting some medicines and receipts, Lucas brought him back to Old Dan's mansion where he had to tell Dan everything that happened.
"So you have cleared the Realm Game but were attacked when you got out?" Old Dan mumbled as he looked at Raven before he directed his gaze at Thomas and asked, " And what about those hooligans? Any news about them?"
"Unfortunately, we have did not find them yet. They seem to have fled the area the moment they were teleported away from the Realm Gate." Thomas explained calmly.
"I see. Well, whatever. I am sure we will find them sooner or later, but until then, you should go and rest for the time being."
"Sure, I will." Raven nodded and once he stood up from the sofa with a soft groan he walked up to his room on the second floor.
Luna wished to follow him too, but as Old Dan told her to stay, she could only stomp a little from frustration and watch as Raven disappeared at the corner of the door with his hands placed on his side.
"Urgh... This will take at least four weeks to heal for sure." Raven mumbled as he closed the door behind his back and lay down on the sole, queen-sized bed in the middle of the room.
"Sigh... While it seems that my luck has gotten better within these Realm Games obviously because of my necklace, I am still as cursed as ever in real life." Raven sighed bitterly and closed his eyes to take a nap.
Though, after lying on the bed for several minutes straight without moving, suddenly his eyes snapped open as something he has completely forgotten about come across his mind.
Hence, once he sat up carefully and placed his back against the bed's frame, Raven waved his hand, and in an instant several items appeared in front of him on the bed.
There were three small bottles, one containing black, one golden, and one red liquid within, each seemingly having the ability to increase his Strength, Mystique, and Vitality Traits!
There was also 1 small crystal orb with a scarcely transparent appearance, while beside it there was a small item that looked like a medicine pill with the sole exception that around its surface there were strange black symbols, just like on his Realm Gate Detector.
"Let's drink these first," Raven mumbled as he grabbed the three bottles and poured their contents down his throat, increasing his Strength by 6, his Mystique by 4, and his Vitality by 3!
"...It tastes the same as always," Raven said to himself as he put the three bottles down and was ready to grab to small crystal orb when suddenly a notification he didn't expect to see popped up before his face.
[Congratulations! You have increased all of your Avatar Traits beyond 10 points!]
[Congratulations! You will be now given your first Avatar Imprint!]
"What?" Raven was both confused and surprised by the sudden change of events, but even before he could have blinked twice a weird sensation swept through his whole body which soon turned into a piercing, causing his face to instantly contort into a painful grimace.
