15 Jubileus (1/2)

---

Raven woke up the next day and acted like nothing happened. He joined his brothers for breakfast and informed them about the news of his breakthrough.

After eating breakfast, they headed out to school only to find out that Old Lee was absent absent and a different instructor will be in charge of their classes today. The instructor said that Old Lee had to do some very important errand and that he will be back next week to continue teaching them.

This made several students sigh in relief. During the time of their stay here, they actually grown to like the his teaching style. The class was serene and very informative. Old Lee will always try to answer each of the student's questions to best of his abilities, furthermore he was humble too. If a student asked about a question that he doesn't know the answer to, he will tell it to them truthfully and will even try to research it for them.

The class also found out that there are several students missing, and by several they mean the beauties of this class: Luna, Ellen and Anne. They were puzzled as to why but decided to not ask questions. After all, those three are geniuses and have a bright future ahead of them so it was understandable that these mundane class is useless to them.

Ellen and Anne had Green-grade talent while Luna had an astonishing Blue-grade talent, one that couldn't be seen in thousands of people.

To this, Raven had no interest at all. After all, he knew why these people are missing.

The class ended once again and the triplets went back to their training, and because of their breakthrough, all of them took the intensity of it by a couple of notches. For some reason, Paul and Mark felt that there's something bothering their brother but since he didn't want to talk about it, they stayed silent and focused on being their own training.

Just like before, after each training, they will soak in a basin filled with F-rank Body Restoration fluids. Then they will eat dinner and pass out on their beds. Their lives went on like this until one night...

Raven was meditating on top of a hill. Ever since the incident, he changed his meditation spot from his room to here. He wasn't really expecting much from this. In fact he didn't even know why he decided to do it here. He wondered if it was because of the stars above him but he was too lazy to bother.

Suddenly, Raven felt a wind blew on his back. He was on the middle of meditating so he was extremely sensitive to the changes in his surroundings. Other people might not be aware of their presence but not him. He could tell that there are two people behind him even if his back was facing them and his eyes were close.

”What do you need?” His voice was serene, akin to a placid lake. His eyes were still closed but he could feel the two people behind his back move in front of him and took a deep bow.

”We are terribly sorry if we have offended you last time. My Grandpa Lee only wanted to protect me because of what happened, please do not blame him.”

That's right, it was Old Lee and the maiden once more. Raven sighed as he heard the apology of the maiden. He opened his eyes and gazed at them with a serene expression.

”Sit down.”

He pointed in front of him and took something out of his spatial ring. The two complied and sat down in front of him. No one spoke, Raven just continued taking out one item after another from his spatial ring. After a while of uncanny silence, Raven spoke.

”Her name was Jubileus.” His words caused the hearts of the two trembled, without a doubt they knew where this conversation was going.
