50 Case (1/2)

”What makes you say that Uncle?”

Raven became a bit worried, the plan about that Righteous Bestowal Ceremony was incredibly important for his plans for them and it would truly make it hard for them if they are unable to experience it.

”Apparently there is quite a misconception that the ceremony only brings harm and no help to the people who experience it. Recently, there were few cases of people experiencing harmful damages on their bodies after the ceremony.”

”At first we thought that it was only a coincidence but during the last batch, at least fifteen percent of the people who went were harmed and the rest experienced no gains at all. And to make things worst, the people who were harmed at the process came from formidable backgrounds and their parents were the one's who started the movement. If this is to continue then we have no choice but shut down the place.”

The crew went silent upon hearing his words. The excitement that they felt earlier was washed by a cold bucket of water.

The reason for their downcasted expression had a very deep source. Raven told them before that there were three paths of cultivation, and those are Body, Energy and Spirit. The Righteous Bestowal Ceremony's most common use, is to allow a cultivator to smoothly tread the transition out of the Fighter Path towards the Knight Path. But to Raven and his crew, it was more than that.

The ceremony's true benefit will be unleashed once they experience it. It's true benefit is to deepen the connection within the cultivator and his/her Spirit Entity, given that there is a connection already. And since the techniques that Raven and his crew uses were aligned towards their Spirit Entities, then they will experience this benefit.

The ceremony will also strengthen their own spirit, to those who wish to follow the Spirit Path, the ceremony is a must since it is the safest way to tap into their own spirit. Raven, Anne, Ellen and Luna planned on following the spirit path and if the ceremony was to be suspended, then it is an incredible waste.

On the other hand, Raven was incredibly puzzled. He had no clue that something like this happened during his past life, or if it even happened in the first place. Back in that time, he and his brothers didn't think about going since they barely progressed in their cultivation and ceremony is only open to youths on ages thirteen to seventeen, Paul and Mark were nineteen when they reached Marrow Cleansing Realm while Raven reached that stage a year later.

Raven was convinced that this was the result of a butterfly effect. The things that he did, though very minimal, had already affected the overall situation of the kingdom. He could only smile wryly as he now had another headache to deal with.

”Has there any results after the investigations?” Raven could only ask since he truly didn't want to change his plans.

”We have been investigating for a while now but sadly, nothing came up.” Bradley shook his head and sighed, sometimes he couldn't help but worry about things that's beyond his power.

”Bring me to the place, with my background it shouldn't be a problem. We are looking forward to the ceremony and I don't to cancel our plans knowing that I could've done something.” Raven firmly said.

Bradley was startled as heard the conviction behind his voice. He started thinking and thought that his words were true, as the son of Hawk he truly won't have any difficulties entering that place, plus he will be there so he could also be Raven's backer.

”Alright, you wanna go now?”

Raven nodded and said: ”Yes, the sooner I see it, the better.” Raven looked towards his friends and said: ”You guys stay here and train. I'll leave the formation activated. Oh right! Here.”

Raven took out several scrolls from his spatial ring and said: ”Battle Arts along with notes why I gave you that. Practice well. Let's go Uncle.”

Without even wasting a second, Bradley nodded. He grabbed Raven on his shoulders and together they disappeared like a flying silver comet leaving five people who held on to the scrolls that Raven gave them, sighing on the fact that they couldn't be of help once again.

The pair reappeared in front of a majestic gate behind a lush greenery.

Beyond this gate is where the Righteous Bestowal Ceremony occurs. Few guards were alerted by their presence but when they saw Bradley's badge, they instantly dropped their guard and saluted towards him.
