Lord of the Karmic Fate

Chapter 24 Realm Shop (2-Last)



\'...\'

Both Raven and Luna stared at the white light in the middle of the living room with complex complexions, none of them moving or speaking.

However, this only lasted for a second before Raven quickly pulled Luna up from the edge of the sofa and stood before her, his eyes staring intently at the phenomena in front of him.

\'What is happening now?\' Raven narrowed his eyes and felt a little nervous as he immediately recognized what was happening in front of him.

The very same thing occurred with him and Old Dan inside the depth of the forest where the massive white Realm Gate appeared out of thin air. Though, the only difference between that time and this was that they, at this very moment, were on the highest floor of a hotel!

This meant if a Realm Gate all of a sudden will be formed here, the whole building will collapse and will bury everyone in this hotel under tons of debris alive, sending all of them straight to the afterlife without any chance to come back!

"We must get out of he-" realizing the danger they were in, Raven was ready to turn around and pick up Luna to run away, but just as he could have done so the white light akin to a swollen balloon suddenly exploded, sending white fragments flying everywhere within the room.

Raven first was shocked and even believed this was the end for both of them, but the moment he lowered his hand which he raised to protect his face, what he saw was nothing he has expected to see.

"A... Door?" Raven mumbled quietly and looked at Luna behind him, only to see that she too was confused and lost for words.

In front of the two of them, in the middle of the living room, a small white door with a height of two meters stood lonely with nothing but a pair of golden handles in its middle. Just like the Realm Gate Raven has seen before this one was too without any carvings or symbols atop its surface.

Raven waited for a few minutes to see whether something else was about to happen, but noticing that his fear was pointless he sighed softly before walking in front of the door.

"Should we open it?" standing beside Raven with scarcely messy hair which obviously was the result of their little "fight", Luna looked at the door with cautious but also curious eyes.

Raven contemplated for a second or two before deciding to place a hand atop the door\'s surface which instantly made Luna jump slightly from fright.

Whoosh!

[As one of the few individuals successfully reaching Rank 1, you have been rewarded to enter the first floor of the Realm Shop!]

[Please be aware that at this moment only you can enter the Realm Shop! Anyone else trying to do so will be severely punished!]

[Do you wish to enter the Realm Shop?]

Reading the contents on the half-transparent magic panels in front of his face, Raven\'s eyes widened while through Luna\'s eyes a hint of indifference seemed to flash before vanishing completely.

"What will you do?" Luna decided to ask when she saw Raven standing still even after three full minutes.

Raven gave a sideways glance to Luna before shifting his gaze at the doorknob and saying with confidence, "You stay here, I will check what is on the other side."

"But what if it\'s something dangerous?" Luna quickly grabbed Raven\'s hand while her mesmerizing violet eyes looked at Raven with both worry and uneasiness.

"I will come with you!"

"You won\'t!" Raven didn\'t hesitate even a second to deny and with an extremely serious face which he rarely showed to others not to mention to Luna, he stated, "You will stay here!"

Luna was surprised by the sudden change of attitude in Raven before she became shy and couldn\'t help but avert her gaze. Raven could even swear he saw how his little sister\'s ear became scarcely red but as this was not the time to ponder on useless things he took his phone out of his pocket and quickly sent a message.

"Thomas will be soon here. Once he arrives tell him everything." then, without waiting for a reply Raven turned the doorknob slightly and watched as his vision was engulfed in complete whiteness before he found himself in an entirely new environment.

"?!"

Raven\'s eyes immediately widened the moment he could see what was around him.

He no longer was inside the luxurious hotel room but in a large room filled with numerous shelves and desks, on each of the desks and shelves, different items were visible.

There were books with different thicknesses and qualities of covers, scrolls, objects with various looks, shapes, and sizes, and there were even a few items Raven immediately identified such as the Avatar Flasks filled with different looking liquids, the small almost completely transparent crystals, slabs with symbols carved on their surfaces, and small circular pieces of paper that seemingly were Realm Gate Detectors!

"This... What is this place?" Raven mumbled as he tried to find answers, not expecting that the very moment he asked his question a voice would appear within the room, answering his question!

"This place? This is the most renowned shop in the whole cosmos, one where even the very gods used to visit as here everything one wishes to find can be found!"

"Eh?" Raven quickly snapped his head toward the direction from where the voice came, but as he saw nothing he felt confused and with a slight frown but cautious voice asked, "Most renowned shop throughout the whole cosmos that even gods like to visit? What should that even mean?"

Just in that single sentence, Raven found so many things that he didn\'t seem to understand that he wished to ask numerous questions. But unfortunately, before he could have, the voice once again started to talk.

"Although I appreciate your curiosity as it is every living being\'s nature to be curious and to be thirsty for more knowledge, despite me wanting to explain your doubts, I, unfortunately, can\'t for several reasons. Hence, please let us get onto the main reason why you have been summoned here."

In that very instant the deep voice said those words, a magic panel suddenly appeared out of nowhere before Raven\'s line of sight, containing texts he has so far not seen before.
