Lord of the Karmic Fate

68 Only One Can Stand! (4-Last)

Outside the Realm Game, almost every eye stared intently at holograms or large screens, watching how two individuals talked to each other, seemingly discussing what they should acquire the white crown.

"How interesting, They seem to have figured out a solution to approach the statue." a slim man with a pale face and wearing a rather elegant suit leaned back into his chair, his exhausted eyes looking at Raven's and Felix's figure indifferently.

"Sir, if I may, was it really a good idea to send the Young Master there?" a young butler standing beside the man asked politely, his eyes fixed on Felix's body.

The man gave a sideways glance at the young butler before he smiled and shifted his attention back at the screen, "With his Artifact and especially with 'that' item in his possession, there is nothing we should worry about. After all, if 'that' Relic really could achieve what its description stated, even if he dies he will lose nothing."

"Sir, that is true, but with 'that' Item's side effects the Young Master condition will only wor-"

"Evin, that is enough."

Evin, the young butler quickly shut his mouth and bowed deeply.

"I apologize, I was just worried because of the Young Master's safety and well-being."

The man shook his head and after he waved his hand usually, showing he didn't mind it, he looked at Raven's figure and narrowed his eyes.

"Did you find anything about him?"

Evin, glancing at the Raven whose face was hidden behind a golden polygon mask and was wearing a white suit with golden sewing on it, shook his head.

"Unfortunately, we did not. We even tried to track down who bought the same dress in the past, but we came up with nothing so far."

The man narrowed his eyes even more before he hummed softly and said, "Just make sure you keep searching. Whoever that guy is, it is very obvious that my son took interest in him. After all, knowing his personality he won't just start chatting idly with just anyone much less befriending them. There must be something interesting about that guy."

"We are on it, Sir," Elvin assured the man with another polite bow.

Inside the Realm Game, standing right behind the statue.

"Are you ready?" straightening his posture, Raven looked at Felix and asked with a calm but at the same time nervous voice.

"Although the plan is simple, it still holds too much risk. Also, are you really sure you can jump that high?" Felix frowned with doubt.

"I know, but there is nothing without risk. As for whether I can jump that high or not, you don't have to worry. I am confident in my own strength."

Felix stared at Raven, trying to see through his mask and see if he was truly confident or was just trying to look strong, but soon he just sighed and nodded;

"Sure, let's do it."

"Great!" Raven grinned with excitement which was rather weird considering he will just risk his life and future, and after taking a deep breath he turned to face the statue and closed his eyes.

If someone at this moment would be able to see his face, they would be shocked to see that the grin on Raven's face didn't vanish at all nor did it turn nervous, but instead grew wider!

'This feeling... I don't know what it is but it feels great!' Raven thought when he felt how the sensation grew stronger with each passing second and took a step forward.

Everyone watched this move of his with back-held breaths, waiting for the sight of the shadow to appear and slice him apart, just like it did with everyone else so far!

Yet, weirdly enough, the shadow never came, not even when Raven had walked more than 20 meters!

"This... How did he do it? Why does not the shadow attack him?"

"Impossible... He really figured out how to approach it safely?"

"Bullshit! I don't fucking believe it!"

People discussed the sight in front of them with perplexed expressions, not believing that Raven really figured a way to approach the statue safely, some even suspecting he was using a special Item he acquired in the past or his Artifact allowed him to get out of detection!

Some were even so skeptical that they quickly ran around the statue and once behind it they followed after Raven. Of course, it was needless to say when they entered the radius of the statue and their eyes fell on the black figure of the large knight, the shadow appeared and shredded them apart in seconds!

This, naturally, dumbfounded many and quickly forced them to think twice before deciding to approach the statue.

"Just 15 meters." suddenly Felix shouted which quickly ended up him starting coughing.

Raven nodded slightly and continued to walk forward, only coming to a halt when Felix told him he was right behind the statue, only a single meter separating him from touching the black knight's ankle.

'Now here comes nothing.' Raven thought and after taking a deep breath he crouched down, ready to jump.

"What the hell is he trying to do? Jump? The Relic is almost 60 meters tall! There is no way he can jump that high!"

One had to note that so far those who ever got close to acquiring the crown all possessed Items or Artifacts that either allowed them to soar into the sky a little or grab it from far distances. There was no one that tried to jump as although their physical strength got enhanced by the Strength Avatar Trait, they could only jump above 15 meters, 20 meters at max.

That is why some tried to climb the statue, but of course, they were also killed by the black shadow as everyone else!

However, soon, those who have already started to mock Raven for his seemingly foolish attempt quickly widened their eyes when suddenly the pants around Raven's leg visibly got tighter and with a force that cracked the ground below his feet soared into the sky like a rocket!

"The fuck?!"

Everyone's jaw dropped to the ground, and those who sat in their chairs sat up from them in disbelief and watched as Raven flew higher and higher, reaching the head of the statue in a flash!

"Now!" Felix with a mix of startled and excited grin shouted to which Raven extended his arm, his hand grabbing the crown just at the right moment!

'I got it!' opening his eyes and looking at the white glowing Relic in his hand, Raven smiled like a fool behind his mask and watched as magic panels popped up before his face despite him being still empty air.
