Way of the Knights

Chapter 803: Updated Profile

‘Something’s…different, in him.’ Sect Master Lucas murmured inwardly to himself as he silently inspected his heir. 

Raven had returned from his personal trip. He was gone for a three whole days, the Divine Knights were already gone by the time he returned, they went back to their homes after receiving their lucky fortunes, they left sentiments with the Sect Master to pass on to Raven of course before bidding them farewell. 

Of course, the Sect Master, Grand Elder and Gaia remained. They won’t leave without him. His return surprised them a bit because the changes in him were very subtle but also quite alarming for some reason. 

None of them could put it in mere words. Raven just felt…different. 

No, he isn’t a Divine Knight just yet. His cultivation didn’t advance either…at least from what they can tell, it doesn’t. Yet for some reason, he feels more powerful than before. 

Said reason might be because of a treasure he sought after, a lucky opportunity that called him here. It could also be an enlightenment, who know? None of the Elders pried though, Raven didn’t seem keen on explaining so they just left him be. 

Right now, they are walking back to the Dawn Council’s headquarters. 

Their trip to the Divine Land was fruitful. As much as they would like to remain, their presence is disturbing the land so they have to leave. 

Once they stepped out of the portal, Raven didn’t waste any time. He immediately created a new seal that will prevent any trespassers from intruding the Divine Land.

With recent changes in him, creating a new seal went a bit surprising. 

Previously, his seals had a fixed colors – Golden and Silver. Now however, the Golden radiance turned several shades darker, it didn’t diminish it’s power though. The silver radiance looked purer than before as well. 

Raven instinctively knew that the power of his seals just raised to a whole new realm. He needed sometime to adjust to the scale but it shouldn’t prevent him from creating a sealing the entrance to the Divine Land. 

And he manage to do just that. He created a seal which is a hundred times better than the previous one. The seal is programmed to scan and filter the guests who are trying to enter the Divine Land. The seal was sufficiently lethal and sturdy enough to last for a very long time. 

After he’s done replacing the seal, they went back to the main office of the Dawn Council. The imprisoned members are still there, looking more wretched compared to how they left them previously. 

It was clear that they tried different methods to escape the seal, only to fail miserably. Raven snorted in disdain. He warned them already but they’re just really stubborn. He didn’t want to waste time with these people since he has other matters to attend to. 

Raven moved the imprisoned knights to a cell and isolated them from everyone’s view. After that, he flared his aura and made an announcement to those who are still around. 

“Today marks the end of the Ancient Elysium Sect’s cleansing of the Dawn Council!” Raven’s sonorous voice soared through miles around him, echoing on the ears of those who still remained. “The former council members are now dealt with. A reform will take place with us taking the helm of operations! Those who still want to pledge loyalty to the council may remain, the rest are free to excuse themselves.”

“To those who are planning to take advantage of this moment, behave yourselves. Try something funny and our sect will hunt you down.”

“The official reform will take place within a month’s time! Until then, wait for further announcements.”

The Ancient Elysium Sect’s counter-attack to the Dawn Council had spread far and wide, sending ripples to the entire Divine Realm. 

Unless someone was living under a rock or something, there’s no way for them to not know of this news. 

At the very forefront of this whole operation, was the reveal of the Ancient Elysium Sect’s future Sect Master. The current Sect Master’s heir and successor to his title – Vendrick ‘Raven’ Valorheart. 

The news came directly from the Divine Knights who were present during the whole operation, the Oriental Dragon Group – Divine Realm’s source of news and gossip, got a hold of them and asked for the spicy details, to which the Divine Knights entertained whole-heartedly.

Well, most of them except Malachi. Even then, Malachi still said a word or two about Raven before getting irritated. 

Additionally, the Oriental Dragon Group also noticed a few of the sect’s War Gods appearing in public so they wasted no time and hounded them for information.

A couple of days later, the Oriental Dragon Group released a coverage of the event and the updated profile for Raven. It reads;

Ancient Elysium Sect’s Young Lord – Vendrick Valorheart. 

Born and raised from a Lower Plane, he joined the sect’s ranks and showed brilliance as a one in a billion genius. He achieved one brilliant feat after another and was chosen as an Heir to Zeus at first, then Chronos right after. 

With his expertise in wielding seals in all manners, he alone brought down the casualties of the sect to a single-digit percentage – a feat that nobody else achieved before. Not only that, he also improved the quality of life for his fellow disciples and drastically improved the security of the sect. 

It is said that he climbed and reach the peak of the Devil Emperor’s Pagoda all alone. An impossible feat considering how many terrors and abominations lurked inside the said pagoda but he still did it. 

His most brilliant achievement was the fact that he alone, sealed the Devil Emperor. It might not sound impressive but the Young Lord sealed the abomination in way that it will never be able to harm even a mere mortal. In fact, he even sealed him in way that made the Devil Emperor an unlimited energy source for the sect, much like how he sealed the corrupted members of the Dawn Council. 

Speaking of the Dawn Council. The Young Lord reduced them to a joke. 

It was revealed that the Dawn Council took an active role at the invasion of the sect that occurred recently. They acquired the Sect’s ire and thoroughly showed their blatant disrespect after not delivering an explanation. 

The sect along with their Divine Knights allies, with Raven leading the operation, stormed the Dawn Council and forced the members to abdicate. The Young Lord sealed them away, turning them into energy sources to nourish the Divine Land. 

The Young Lord then announced that there will be reform to the current Dawn Council with the Ancient Elysium Sect at its helm. Further announcements are still waiting to be released but considering the fact the Young Lord is personally taking actions, we – of the Oriental Dragon Group, are looking forward to it. 

Oh! And before we forgot. Yes, Young Lord Raven is indeed Holy Maiden Luna’s Husband. They met, feel in love and married each before they ascended along with their friends; Paul, Ellen, Mark, and Anne.

“Darn. Big Brother sure moves fast. It hasn’t even been a year!” 

On a lone plane filled with nothing but endless desolation on sight. Three people huddled over a piece of paper. It’s the latest brochure that the Oriental Dragon Group has released. 

The trio looked young, two females and one male. The two females were twins, and the male looked like their older sibling, only figuratively though. 

These trio were none other than Raven’s twin sisters and his only disciple for now, Nina, Tori and Kyle. 

Currently, they are in place called the Grand Desolate Dessert. This is a remote location filled with dangers and fortunes. Not a lot of people visits this place because of the difficulty to survive here, much less discover a lucky chance, yet the trio actually chose this place as their first destination. 

“Well, Master has always been a man of his word.” Kyle added, “If I were to guess, he must’ve already planned all of this even before he returned here.”

“I wouldn’t put it past him.” Nina nodded, “Considering what we’ve experienced in the Divine Realm so far, planning it a bare minimum at least.” 

In no way her statement was false or an understatement. Now that twins experienced what Divine Realm is all about, they could totally understand why Raven put them through the wringer and became thankful for it. 

Had they not experienced such a thing, they’ll probably lose their lives within the first month of their arrival even with Kyle’s assistance. 

“Well, if Big Bro’s on the move, Sister-in-Law and the others should be as well. From what Kyle said, this is a big event. Surely they’ll know right?” Tori asked.

“Oh, I don’t doubt that.” Kyle agreed enthusiastically, “The Oriental Dragon Group is famous for their news and gossips. I’m sure that the others are on priority of receiving these brochures considering their connection with Master.” 

“So then…” Tori paused before saying, “We’re moving on to the 2nd Phase of the plan?” 

“Yep! 2nd Phase.” Kyle nodded, “We gotta hurry too. Judging by how fast Master moves, the 2nd Phase won’t last long. We should be done here by the time the 3rd Phase begins because we are needed.” 

“Alright. What are waiting for then? Let’s move!”
