After talking with Dan for several hours straight Raven was able to learn many things except for the average Rank of humans.
First of all, it turned out that during his fight with Paloma the world was on the verge of total annihilation and chaos broke out everywhere. Things have escalated to such heights that almost 70% of the world was engulfed in blood and mayhem!
However, when Raven "killed" Paloma earning humanity to win their first World's Clash challenge, everything slowly began to calm down and in just over a month everything was back under control and at peace.
Naturally, because of his victory, Raven became a legendary hero in the eyes of people to the point where statues representing his alias had been erected at numerous points on Earth, and anyone who tried to impersonate him while being a fake would end up severely punished!
That's just how much respect, honor, and admiration did he acquire just by defeating a single enemy.
A feat that saved the lives of billions!
After that, the world slowly began to change mainly because of the influence of Realm Gates and Realm Domains.
The Realm Association began to gain more and more power every passing day while the competition between guilds started to thrive rapidly, their rivalry primarily focusing on which one of them could complete more Realm Games and clear more Realm Domains.
There was also competition about who could accumulate more wealth, conquering Realm Domains completely which meant clearing a specific Realm Domain three times and obtaining the Realm Core residing within, and recruiting talents with each day, increasing both their influence and manpower.
Considering all of these and some minor ones, Raven learned from Old Dan that currently, Black Moon Guild was still at the very top with two other Guilds, the Immortal Guild and Hollowsmith Guild.
'So she came this far, huh?' a small smile appeared on Raven's face when he heard the Immortal Guild's name.
However, Raven was told that although their guild was at the top they didn't have the most influence in the world when it came to Realm Domains, but the five Realm Families!
According to Old Dan, in the past, these five families already had a massive influence thanks to their wealth and many other things, but during and after the chaos they were able to live with various opportunities that pushed them to greater heights.
Such heights where their individual strength, wealth, and influence alone could rival the entire Realm Association with ease!
'To think so much has changed...' Raven sighed inwardly and shook his head as all of these things were just the tip of the iceberg!
There was the news about two new gates appearing, red-colored Realm Gates known as Crimson Gates and black-colored Realm Gates known as Calamity Gates, each varying in Rank Requirements and Difficulty!
There were also things such as some Artifacts influencing people's characteristics hence why some looked like humanoid monsters, or things about a few people acquiring their Avatar Class, which in truth except for a unique name gave no benefits at all.
This piece of information naturally confused Raven as his Avatar Class was different as it granted him the ability to sense the luck of others.
"Talking about Avatar Class, Luna was also lucky and hardworking enough to acquire one for herself." Old Dan said, his face holding a proud smile at the moment.
"Really?" Raven asked, curious to know what Luna's Avatar Class was. After all, one's Avatar Class gave one a hint about a person's abilities and strengths.
"Her Avatar Class is called Silver Death."
'...'
Raven became silent, his face becoming slightly pale.
Silver Death... Knowing just what her Artifact was and what its unique ability was, Raven could easily fathom just what kind of powerhouse her little sister was.
Wait... Little sister? It felt weird saying that, after all, while it was true he went missing for 3 years he didn't age at all while she did.
It literally made her 22 years old while he still was 20!
'Well, although it is a little confusing, technically she is still my little sister.' Raven smiled bitterly before his face turned calm and asked, "When will she be back?"
"Currently she is clearing a Realm Domain that once belonged to a Blue Realm Gate with five ring marks so she must be back in three to four days."
"Ring marks?" Raven raised a brow but quickly realized what Old Dan meant by that.
Ring Marks. They were small ring-shaped symbols on the surface of Realm Gates, representing the Rank Requirements.
For instance, 1 ring mark meant a Rank Requirement between Rank 1 and Rank 10 while five ring marks implied a Rank Requirement between Rank 40 and Rank 50.
"I see, so she is clearing a Realm Domain that requires one being at least a Rank 40..." Raven mumbled quietly, feeling a little nervous just by imaging what kind of abominations lurked in such a domain.
Hell, not only that, just how strong was a Rank 40 too? Considering just how fast he could run and how easily could he shatter boulders with bare fists with only being Rank 10, he could hardly imagine the strength of someone above Rank 40.
Would they run as fast as the fastest trains on Earth and blast mountains with punches? Although it was hard to believe, after thinking about it Raven didn't really think it was something impossible.
"...Rank 40, huh?" Raven mumbled and after pondering for a while he asked, "Where is the closest Realm Domain from us?"
"It's about a few miles away from here. But why? Don't you want to visit your sister and surprise her?" Old Dan asked, slightly confused.
"I can already imagine her face after she sees you. In fact, exactly because of that reason why we have yet to inform her about your arrival."
Raven sighed and said, "I will visit her, but before that, I wish to do something."
And as he said those words Raven brought up the panel listing he has yet to be collected rewards, massively shocking Old Dan.
