Chapter 136 Practicing
[Because of your Avatar Title: The Blessed Prodigy your Reward had been doubled!]
Whoosh!
With a silver flash, numerous items in large numbers appeared before Raven, scarcely shocking Luna.
"Now I understand how you were able to reach Rank 43 despite going missing for three years."
"Three months to be exact, but yeah." Raven sighed as he quickly used his Collecters gloves, doubling and enhancing the rewards that had been already doubled thanks to his Title.
21 Random Avatar Flasks, 4 Middle Piece Artifact Crystals, 4,000 Astral Cores, 2 Blueprint Scrolls, 2 Relics that had been enhanced,
4 Rune Pills, and 4 Realm Shop Tickets.
After collecting his rewards, these items were the things Raven gained just because he has conquered a Crimson Gate!
As for the 50% bonus, that he gained thanks to his SS Character Rank, it made Raven a little disappointed as it was only Novas and Realm Points that he, later on, could exchange for various items.
There was no Avatar Flasks, no Relics, no Rune Marks, no nothing.
With a sigh, Raven quickly drank all the Avatar Flasks and check out his Avatar Traits.
~~~
° Vitality: 434 [20]
° Mystique: 460 [25]
° Strength: 360 [20]
° Speed: 368 [32]
° Constitution: 372 [32]
° Dexterity: 357 [20]

"Rank 46... Just like that." upon seeing Raven's current strength Luna sighed defeatedly, wondering just where would Raven be today if he would have not gone missing.
This speed of growth was just simply too ridiculous.
Showing a wry smile, Raven grabbed the four almost transparent crystals and handed them to Luna.
"Here, take these. They are no use to me now that my Artifact has reached Arcane Grade."
"They are useless to me also. Just sell them to someone or put them in an auction. They will earn a great sum." Luna explained calmly.
"Is that so? Maybe I will do just that." Raven mumbled as an idea flashed in his eyes and put the Artifact Crystals away.
He also put away the 4 Rune Pills, the 4,000 Astral Cores, and the 2 Blueprint Scrolls before he decided to check out the two Relics.
--------------

[Relic: Six Colored Devil Flower]
? Grade: Arcane
? Form: Complete
? Description: This little plant's petals are so unique that they are edible and upon consumption, they can enhance different senses such as hearing, smell, touch, taste, sight, and instinct!
<The flower blooms one new petal every month which lasts for 6 minutes! You can also urge it to blossom one in exchange for 10,000 units of Mystique!>
<Warning, petals born through Mystique have weaker effects and last for a shorter duration!>
--------------
"This one looks interesting," Raven mumbled as he held a small flower in his hand with it only having a single petal on with the color white.
"Will you try it out?" Luna asked curiously, to which Raven just shook his head and put it into his Void Ring.
"Although I wish to, it is better to save it for later. Using it now would be just a waste of time."
"Yeah, you're right." Luna hummed and watched as Raven grabbed a small red ticket from the four floating before him.
--------------
[Item: Realm Shop Ticket]
? Rarity: Very Rare
? Type: Red
? Description: This small ticket can be used to gain access to the 5th and 6th Floors of the Realm Shop for 10 minutes!
<Can be used only once!>
--------------
"Realm Shop Tickets are incredibly rare and people would start killing for it much less for four. If I were you, I would not show anyone that I have any." Luna said to which Raven nodded and handed one to his little sister.
"Take it. I will give one to dad and Thomas too." Raven explained when he saw the confusion within Luna's eyes.
Seeing this kind act of her brother, Luna's eyes sparkled like little stars, and quickly jumped at Raven, planting a firm kiss on his cheeks lovingly.
"You are the best!"
Raven just smiled at that and shook his head before he put the remaining Realm Shop Tickets away and looked at the timer in Luna's hand.
"We still have a little over half an hour. What should we do?" Luna asked when she saw where Raven was looking at.
"Let's practice a little. I want to sharpen my skills with my blade."
Although Raven was confident he can literally overpower anyone thanks to his Rune Mark, he understood he couldn't always use that as it not only put a huge toll on his body but also could be used for a very short time.
And exactly for this reason why he wished to at least master a basic level with his blade as at the moment the only thing he could do was to swing it around. However, if he were to fight someone without his Rune Mark's boost, he would be crushed in seconds!
That's just how weak he really was both with and without the sword.
"Do you want me to be your sparring partner?" Luna asked as she saw Raven summoning his Celeste Blade into his hand.
"For now, I would prefer it if I can practice alone. Sorry..." Raven smiled bitterly before he took up a stance, ready to swing his sword.
"It's okay. I will watch from the side then." Luna smiled sweetly and sat down, her pretty violet eyes following Raven's blade, occasionally shifting at his face that was full of concentration at the moment.
And just like that, 5 hours passed in a blink of an eye with Raven practicing with his Celeste Blade while Luna doing nothing but staring at him from the side with a small smile on the corner of her lips.
As for the extra 4 hours they spent there, Raven naturally made sure to pay for it just before they left the Practice Grounds.
