331 Sunken Ivory Castle (2/2)
Alarm bells instantly sounded on Ravens mind. Without a second thought, he raised the stealth function of the Spatial Abode to the highest level and stopped moving it. Cold sweat drenched his back as he stared fixatedly on the light screen and watched over the Kraken.
It turned out that following his instincts was the best decision he could even make in this situation.
If he moved the Spatial Abode even an inch forward from where it currently was, it would definitely be struck by a stray tentacle of the Kraken.
While the Spatial Abode is isolated behind space, it doesn't mean that it doesn't exist or incorporeal. It is simply hidden from plain sight, even those who couldn't see it could still interact with it. If that stray tentacle made contact with the Spatial Abode, it wouldn't just cause a major damage to it but the Kraken will also become aware of it's existence. Raven would then be placed in a major crisis that might also kill him in the process.
The Spatial Abode went completely still according to Raven's will. He didn't even dare to touch any of the controls. Instead he observed the behavior of the Kraken's tentacles, he guessed that the Kraken might've sensed something wrong which coincidentally made it on-guard. He allowed it's vigilance to dim down before even considering to drive the Spatial Abode forward.
Once he saw that the Kraken had dropped it's vigilance. Raven went back into driving the Spatial Abode forward in the same manner as before.
Even when he was mere inches away from the dome that covered the palace, Raven didn't drop his guard nor rushed in, he made sure that the Kraken was completely oblivious about his intrusion first before he drove the Spatial Abode forward and penetrated the bubble.
The Spatial Abode managed to get in without any hitches. Raven only relaxed after noticing that the Kraken was still oblivious. He then wiped out the sweat that was accumulating on his face, he also became aware that his back was drenched in cold sweat which caused him to smile wryly.
He sighed in relief and quietly observed his new surroundings. He decided to change his clothes before he got off from the Spatial Abode. He decided leave Venus inside the Spatial Abode as he stored it inside his core. The Spatial Abode could shrink it's size so he had no problems storing it.
Raven then took a sharp inhale and placed on a determined expression. He then gazed at his surroundings and couldn't help but feel admiration to those who built this castle.
Not mentioning the fact that the whole castle is made out of the Ivory Tusk of a Heavenly Elephants that could only be found on the Divine Realm, it's even more impressive that they were able to mold this item and use it as a foundation for this Ivory Castle.
Things that could be found in the Divine Realm are mostly from dazzling origins, take the Heavenly Elephant for example. A colossal beast that could threaten a whole planet just by merely existing, taking out it's Ivory Tusk is not a simple matter. Due to its toughness, the Ivory Tusk of Heavenly Elephant is a difficult item to handle, but now he stood in front of castle that is composed almost entirely of the said tusk.
Even without this protective dome around it, this depth is not enough to even graze the surface of this castle. What's even more impressive is that, it is strapped on a body of a Kraken.
Raven doesn't have a complete information about the origins of this castle. He didn't know who built it, nor the reason why it is strapped on the back of a Kraken.
What he knew is that, this castle had been here for a very long time. It might've been here even before the creation of the kingdom. The other thing that he know is that, he's not alone in here.
After remunerating for a while, Raven decided to step closer to the gates of the castle.
He then found himself looking up at the tall doors that's preventing him from entering the castle. The arching doors were massive, the size gives one an impression that this door is not something that is used by humans.
There are two iron hoops at the door, that being said those too were also big and there's no way that Raven could pull them effectively from where he was. Thankfully he didn't have to do so.
On the corner of the large doors, is a more reasonable sized door that he could open. Raven of course planned on using those doors to enter the castle.
Placing his hand on the two iron hoops on the smaller door, he started pulling them with all his might. The doors creaked from movement. It took Raven a considerable amount of effort to fully open the doors, only then he came in and lavished at the exotic sights inside the castle.
