Way of the Knights

----

The Almighty Olympus War Ship.

With its massive size that could easily blot out an entire city, not only was is capable of carrying more people than what one could imagine, it is also incredibly efficient and reliable.

Even though majority of its areas are off-limits to the disciples, the places they could go are still plenty enough to occupy their attention throughout the journey towards the sect. 

Just take the private rooms for example...

The location of the private rooms occupies only a corner compared to the actual size of the ship itself. Upon getting there, one would see numerous doors densely packed together, they were even stacked up high, making it look extremely compact. It was as if someone didn't even placed any attention to them and just placed multiple doors just for the heck of it. 

In reality however, this was far from the truth.

Upon opening one door, one would arrive at an entirely different space, a pocket dimension where every necessities are prepared for the individual who will occupy them. 

Each pocket dimension is as big as a whole palace. In fact, it could even be modified according to one's wishes. If one wanted to have an experience similar to camping out in the wild, the pocket dimension could be modified into a vast jungle. Simply put, anyone who enters has the freedom to change the whole topography of the pocket dimension according to their wishes and it will happen. 

And without any doubt, each door within this corner has a similar functions. Each pocket dimension could easily hold at least thousands of people and they still will have space to work with. Not to mention that there are multiple of these doors and these aren't the only place where the private rooms are located. There's at least six more areas filled with the same thing. Meaning that this whole war ship might just be able to carry millions of people should a need for it to arise. 

Just that alone makes the value of this specific war ship to soar through the skies. Additionally, it was originally a war ship to begin with, therefore it would make total sense for it to be filled with all sorts of weapons that could devastate stars with ease. 

It also has to be mentioned that, according to Henry, this is the Almighty Olympus War Ship - Type 5. Which means that there are other variations of this kind of ship. 

Them riding this ship, is already a huge demonstration of what the Ancient Elysium Sect is capable of. And its also entirely possible that this just barely scratch the surface of what the sect truly has to offer.

Raven entered his room and was briefly surprised. He wasn't truly expecting much after seeing the stacked doors outside but this was a shocker. 

He's not surprised to arrive at a pocket dimension, he's not a stranger to that after all this time. What he's surprised about is not being able to feel the presence of this pocket dimension at all. 

Although the idea should've struck him upon seeing the quarters, due to its unimpressive and unassuming appearance, he still didn't think that there would be a pocket dimension on each door simply because he hadn't felt its presence at all. 

And this was coming from a man who's enlightened with Spacetime Laws. 

Of course, this intrigued him endlessly. However, he restrained his curiosity and let the matter pass. Although he's technically with his allies by now, he's not yet prepared to trust them with his life just yet. Raven holds many secrets, and he's being careful to not expose any of them as early as now since it might have an adverse result. 

Even then, its not like he was harmed by this. If anything, this is a pleasant surprise for him. 

Whoever designed this war ship is a genius. He knows that creating something like this must've took ages to come into fruition, therefore they earned his earnest respect. 

Raven modified his room to appear like his home back in the lower planes. With his absurd memory, he's able to perfectly replicate the entirety of what his home was like down to the length of the grass. And while this might not be the actual home that he has, it was still enough for him to momentarily ease up his longing to go back home. 

"One month isn't long. That amount of time could easily pass by through just a single meditation. I'm also aware that I won't have any breakthroughs during this short period of time. I've also perfectly recovered my entire energy reserves. Which means that I don't have any pressing matters as of the moment. Hmm, what should I do then?"

Raven was lying on his bed, staring at the ceiling as he carefully thought about what he wanted to do. 

"Touring the ship? Nah, the accessible areas to us are mostly the boring ones. I have no actual need to see those areas. Making friends? Yeah right, as if. Train? Eh, what progress will I have within a month anyway? Not to mention that I'm technically a different breed from other knights. I've also memorized everything on the books that Senior Brother Henry handed to us. So? What do I do then?"

Raven's expression was dull. He felt bored out of his mind. He wanted to do something but also doesn't feel like doing anything at all, it was weird. 

Even if he's not physically doing anything right now, his Avatars are very occupied. It might look like he was relaxing but even right now, his understanding of Destruction Laws are constantly being pushed to its very acme. He only needed a single spark of inspiration to trigger his next advance, but finding that spark is almost a difficult as finding a needle within a haystack. 

Technically, he could enter the Crown Space and beat living crap out the remaining enemies left for him to handle but he couldn't do so right now since he was being monitored. 

'Why did this guy follow me anyway? He thinks that he's staying away from the spying influence but he's not. I could see him like a burning torch within a dark cave. What does he want?'

In truth, Raven was aware that he was being followed from the get go. As soon as he separated from the other disciples, he already sensed that this guy was following him. But instead of confronting the stalker, he just acted as he wasn't aware of his presence at all. 

Had it been a fellow disciple who followed him, then he would've put them in their place already. Unfortunately, this guy was one of the Envoys accompanying Henry. 

It was the elder with a long gray beard. Raven has no idea as to why this guy was here but he acted as he wasn't aware of anything while also observing the Elder as well. 

Elder Graybeard never showed any animosity towards him. Well, at least he didn't feel any so far. The old man just followed him in this room like a wisp of invisible smoke, and from then on just watched him from afar. 

The old man stayed twenty miles away from him. He must've been thinking that Raven has absolutely no clue that he's here but it actually quite the opposite. 

Ever since the seal on his Cosmic Energy had been released, his spying range extended to a full fifty miles. And this is without the help of his ocular technique, which could easily double that range. 

'If he's here just to observe, then it'll be fine to let him be. But if does something that I don't like, then it's going to be a problem.' Raven thought to himself as he closed eyes while in deep thought. 

'Honestly, what's up with all of this monitoring? Back at the Twin Star Academy, they tinkered with some arrays to capture our spiritual mark, the lodgings were also being closely monitored which prevented me from trying out other things. I thought I escaped all of that now that I'm boarding the ship, yet this old man is doing the same thing.'

'There's also the matter with those twins.' Raven sighed, 'They kept bugging me and asking me to return something. I haven't gone senile yet so there's no way that my memory is failing me, I don't recall taking anything from them. What exactly do they want from me?'

"Ugh, I can't think of anything to do. I'll just sleep I guess." Raven grumbled softly as he covered himself with the soft duvet whilst entering a deep state of meditation. 

This was just him feigning sleep. Due to the visible relaxation that deep meditation causes to someone, it's almost similar to falling asleep. Since he's lying down as well, then this will make the old man outside think that Raven was truly sleeping but in reality, Raven was still observing him. 

It won't hurt to be careful. Even though the old man was just observing him from afar, he still didn't want to drop his guard since he had no idea why this old man was here in the first place. 

Time passed and on the fifth hour since 'he fell asleep', Raven was astounded to see that the old man suddenly retreated and exited his room.
