Chapter 86 Unable To Grow Stronger! (3)

Once the six, including Raven, were brought away by President Bai and several other members of the United World League, several people within the hall were approached by people from the Realm Association.

Those who were approached were either the heads of those powerful guilds at the top or individuals with so far great achievements and accumulated wealth.

Thus, it was not so shocking to see that Old Dan was talking with a member of the Realm Association, his face holding a mix of gravity and indifference.

"You wish to see a record about all the items we have so far collected from Realms, including their names and effects?" Old Dan asked, hiding his nervousness behind a calm facade.

"Yes, Sir, if you could." the young man with the Realm Association uniform on nodded politely before continuing, "Normally we would not ask anyone to do something like this, but considering our current situation this is a must."

'Just as I have thought. They will really use all means, including the resources of all guilds' to nurture a single human.' Old Dan thought to himself before he nodded and said, "Sure, I will hand in all of our data to the Realm Association in half an hour."

"Thank you very much. We will make sure to compensate the Black Moon Guild if all this had finally come to an end." the young man bowed politely, hurriedly walking toward the next person closest to him.

As for Old Dan, he just sighed helplessly and shook his head, 'If you will even have the chance to do so.'

With that thought, Old Dan walked before Thomas and with a lowered voice he said, "Go and collect all the 'important' data we have all of our items from the warehouse."

Upon hearing what his master told him, especially with the 'important' part, Thomas immediately understood what he had to do hence after a nod excused himself and walked away.

"How is she doing?" once Thomas was seen leaving the hall, Old Dan turned at Kayn who seemed to keep an eye on the silver-haired beauty like a guard.

"Just like the way here. Showing she is fine on the surface but even a fool can see she is troubled." Kayn replied nonchalantly.

Then, after thinking for a few seconds Kayn sighed deeply and turned to face Old Dan, "Look, I don't want to say this, but if she stays like this and something unexpected happens, she likely will-"

"I know, you don't have to say that to me." Old Dan shook his hand around, knowing way too well just what kind of fate waited for those in a chaotic world whose minds were filled with nothing but turmoil.

"I will go and talk with her." Old Dan stated and without any further hesitation approached his daughter who seemed to gaze in the direction where Raven had just walked away.

Kayn nodded, and after looking at Luna's figure beside the table on the side he turned around and walked away too.

It seemed just like Thomas, he had a few things to do before hell descended onto Earth.

Meanwhile, inside a separate room, President Bai with the other members of the United World League and a few others from the Realm Association sat on sofas while before them stood six individuals; four males and two females, each with outstanding strength.

"It's good to see you again... Luck." showing a wide grin, Felix gave a sideways glance at the masked young man beside him.

Raven, shifting his head at Felix as he could not glance sideways just like the pale friend of his, nodded and said, "I see you have become stronger."

Felix laughed and shrugged, "Well, you see, I happened to hit the jackpot with one of the Realm Games after the Special Events."

Then, his grin widened and turned into a mysterious one, and as he examined Raven up and down he stated, "Though, it seems it is not only me who has gained a little 'blessing'."

'So I was right. He really can inspect one's Avatar Traits, just like Kayn. But he is doing it differently... How?' Raven narrowed his eyes, just a second before the young maid who named them stepped forth from beside President Bai and with a tablet in hand began to speak.

"Hello, it is a pleasure to meet all of you. My name is Rose and I will be the one evaluating all of you. I will record all of your information, including names, Avatar Traits, Artifacts, Relics, Rune Mark-"

"I think all of that is needless to do." suddenly Raven interrupted the young maid, instantly attracting everyone's attention within the room.

The young maid showed a frown and lowering the device in her hand slightly she inquired, "And why is that, if I may ask?"

Raven wished to laugh but decided not to and said nonchalantly, "There are two reasons, in fact."

Then, ignoring the frowns from almost everyone, he continued;

"First of all, it is pointless to share our strength with each other, as we all know who is the strongest among all of us."

"Oh? You are pretty confident in your strength shorty." Roven suddenly took a step forward and with a cold sneer stared down at Raven from above.

'Shorty my ass... Next to you, everyone is a frickin' shorty.' Raven frowned before he laughed coldly, "Confident? Yeah, I am more than confident. After all, I have already reached Rank 9!"

And to prove a point, Raven showed only his Avatar Traits, instantly dumbfounding everyone in the room.

"I-Impossible! How did you push all of your Traits above 60 points?! Shouldn't that mean you must have..." Min Chen asked with a startled expression to which everyone looked at Raven with doubt, some of the members of the Realm Association even with anger.

Naturally, Raven understood what they were thinking as he heard rumors about how people could gain Trait points if they kill other humans, but he had not done anything like that.

"You can be at ease, I have not killed anyone to achive this kind of strength."

"That's just absurd!" one of the members beside President Bai stated, urging everyone to nod.

"How did you do it?" Canwin asked, his eyes filled with deep curiosity instead of doubt.

However, Raven didn't wish to tell all of his secrets, thus he just shrugged, and with a casual shrug he claimed a big fat lie, "Clearing numerous hidden Realm Gates and Domains, completing Hidden Quests, and earning great rewards."

Rose on the side narrowed her eyes before with her usual cold attitude asked, "And what about the second reason?

"Oh about that?" Raven turned to face the young maid and with a smile hidden behind his mask, he said, "It is even more simple than the first reason. It is because it is not up to you who fights the approaching battle, so all this..."

Opening his arms as he looked around, Raven expressed indifferently;

"Is nothing but a huge waste of time. Both yours and especially mine."
