Lord of the Karmic Fate
Chapter 43 [Bonus Chapter] Preliminary Realm Core (2)"Where are you going?"
Feeling a firm grip on his arm, Raven lowered his gaze at the owner of the hand, only to see that it belonged to his father, Dan.
'How did he move so fast?' Raven narrowed his eyes when he realized just how fast Dan crossed the few meters between them, but as he watched him take his hand off him he sighed and pointed at the building, "I will go and explore it, of course."
In that instant, Old Dan's already grave expression became even graver, and quickly shook his head, "No, I won't let you go there."
"You don't have to worry, I will be fine." Raven calmed his foster father with a confident smile, knowing what he was currently thinking.
However, even like that Old Dan shook his head reluctantly while Thomas on his side took a step forward and explained, "Young Master, it is not about whether you can protect yourself or not, it's about the danger lurking inside."
"Are you talking about the beasts?" Raven asked as he raised a brow.
He could clearly remember how Dan could punch the snakes around as if they were nothing but punchbags even with his less than 10 points of Strength at that time, so he didn't quite understand why they both looked so serious all of a sudden.
Yes, a group of recruits died within, but Raven was also told that except for the one with the useful Artifact all of them had less than 10 points for each Traits!
Hell, he even heard how some of them possessed zero points for several Traits which included Speed and even Strenght too! With such a pathetic Status it was no wonder they have died- and of course, Raven thought like this without any intention to look down on them, especially not after they have already died!
As if guessing his thoughts, Old Dan gave a sideways glance at Thomas who as a result nodded softly and began to speak;
"Can you remember when I told you how those new recruits died within this Realm Domain?"
"About the group of ten individuals from which one possessed a strong Artifact that enhanced all of his Avatar Traits greatly? Yes, I can. You told me they died while they were exploring the interior of that building." Raven although confused replied with a nod and casually gestured toward the building with his thumb.
"Well, that is not quite right. That person's Artifact was not as simple as Avatar Trait Enhancement as it could allow him to transfer all of his Traits into a single Trait for a brief period of time!"
"What?!" Raven was shocked beyond belief, "And you have still let him go in there which had yet to be explored?!"
Raven was speeches beyond belief.
What did it mean to have the ability to transfer the points of one Avatar Trait to another? If Raven wished to showcase it, that would mean he would be free to transfer his 18 points of Strength to his 21 points of Speed, allowing him to have a total of 39 points!
Yet, that was only if he transferred the points of a single Avatar Trait!
However, if what Thomas just said was true, the recruit who just died was able to transfer all the points of each of his Avatar Traits into a single Trait! That was just so fucking powerful that in the long run, it could easily make a powerhouse from anyone, even if that anyone was a complete retard!
Thomas sighed with regret at Raven's question while Old Dan showed sorrow and a little hint of anger, obviously showing it was their mistake that they allowed that individual to enter the Domain.
'Wait, if someone even with such a powerful Artifact ended up dying without any chance to survive whether it was inside an unexplored Realm Domain, things must be even direr than I have thought.' Raven thought to himself, realization flashing within his eyes.
"I see you have understood it, good." Thomas sighed with relief, "That is why I highly disagree with you entering that building, or at least not alone."
'So not only the interior of the Domains will change once they undergo Evolution but even the beasts within will get stronger, interesting.' Raven thought with scarcely narrowed eyes.
"Now that you know what danger lurks within that building's walls, you now understand why it is not a good choi-"
"I will still go inside, though." Raven quickly interrupted Old Dan with a casual shrug, dumbfounding both him and Thomas before him.
"I swear I will smack him in the head..." snapping out of his daze, Old Dan clenched his teeth and hissed, seemingly on the verge to step closer to Raven and beating some sense into him.
Like, they have just told him how a person with slightly above average Avatar Traits, great and useful accessories, and a powerful Artifact just died without any chance to remain alive, yet, in spite of all these, he still wanted to go inside?
Slowly, Old Dan started to doubt whether he raised Raven properly way or not as right now he felt it was the latter one. It seemed like Raven had lost all his common sense and became a complete bonehead without any brain inside!
Or it was also possible that he just simply became arrogant because he all of a sudden possessed a little bit of strength that others had yet to reach.
Raven seemed to understand his father's thoughts, after all his face at the moment was like an open book, but still shook his head and even raised his hand, holding a small bottle of perfume in his hand.
"What's that?" Dan squinted his eyes, but when took it away from his son his eyes immediately widened.

"As I said, you don't have to worry," Raven said calmly as he took back the perfume from Old Dan, which obviously was the Relic he got after throwing his dice, and continued, "With this, I can explore the building without getting caught."
"But... Those beasts are snakes."
"Yeah, several meters long and wide snakes with hats akin to hotel staff," Raven said with a straight face, and even before Old Dan or Thomas could say a word he continue, "Of course, regardless of all that, they can still have the ability to sense others inside their through vibrations, and that is why I will use these."
As he reached that point, Raven pointed down at his feet, which at some point in time had two large, brown, leather boots on, their feet seemingly made out of some kind of squishy material.
"...You didn't just steal one of our Silent Hide Boots, did you?" Old Dan frowned, realizing the pair of boots on his son's feet were ones they have kept so far inside the warehouse as except for a silent walk they were completely useless.
"Steal?" Raven raised a brow, looking a little offended, and quickly said, "I just borrowed it."
"And when did you want to tell me?"
"I did. Just now." Raven replied with a calm grin before he turned around and dashed away, reaching the entrance of the building in mere seconds.
"Bullshit!" thick veins popped up on Dan's neck and forehead, almost ready to pop, but just as he was ready to chase after Raven, two individuals wearing the uniform only those with high status within the Black Moon Guild could wear, ran inside the Domain, each holding a terrified expression on their faces.
"G-Guild Master... We have a problem! A HUGE problem!"
Old Dan frowned, but seeing how the two in front of him were paler than a piece of paper, he slowly started to feel unease too, hence he had no choice but to look at Thomas on his side with a serious gaze.
"As you wish." Thomas nodded with gravity and without any hesitation dashed toward the building in the distance, obviously following after Raven.
As for Old Dan...
"Now then, tell me what happened."
