Chapter 612: A Monster Through and Through (2/2)

He excused himself and stood at the very center of the Storm Dweller's Peak.

Everyone was alarmed as they felt Raven gathering large amounts of energy from his surroundings. They wanted to ask what he was planning to do but they couldn't do so since they didn't want to distract Raven from whatever he was doing.

Veins bulged from Raven's face as he felt the heavy burden of unceasing torrents of energy he needed for the process. He raised the Brush of Wisdom with difficulty and drew enormous strokes of intersecting lines filled with majestic and noble Will.

The commotion was too large that even the disciples who were minding their own business below couldn't help but feel alarmed.

Raven, despite feeling an enormous burden on his body, didn't falter and was completely determined to finish the rune. The more time passed, the larger the commotion became, the mountain was even trembling due to how strong the fluctuations were.

With a final stroke, Raven released a strong grunt and finished the rune, causing the skies to be filled with a mixture of Gold and Silver radiance.

Everyone watched with bated breaths as the massive rune formed. Staring at the rune gave everyone an impression of majesty, nobility, warmth and security. The Rune could be seen even at Tartarus.

Once the massive rune manifested, it immediately started releasing soft hums that echoed within the ears of all the listeners. It didn't matter who it was, once they started hearing the faint melody, they immediately felt their worries dissipating like snow in the middle of summer. Some even had the urge to sleep right away and enjoy the cozy feeling this melody brought to them.

Raven became visibly paled as soon as he finished drawing the rune. Still, he didn't falter right away since he had to check if he actually made it correctly. Thankfully he did.

Everyone saw how Raven's shoulders immediately dropped down after he started relaxing. His breaths were shallow and he was sickly pale.

The War Gods immediately went to his side and supported him. Raven managed to squeeze out a smile and said:

”That rune should cleanse the foul Will remaining here. It should also serve as a protection should the Devil Emperor try to do something funny again.”

”You could've asked for our help you know?” Theo admonished, escorting Raven towards the backyard so he can rest.

”I would've if it's possible but it's not.” Raven replied, it was extremely obvious that he was extremely exhausted. ”I'm the only one who can create that rune since I am the one who invented it.”

”Still, you could've done it once you're fully rested.” Henry countered.

”I am well rested. Well, not anymore but that's besides the point.” Raven squeezed out another smile. ”Don't worry, this isn't going to kill me. I'll just probably be unconscious for days...worst weeks. See ya later then.”

As soon as he said that, Raven let go and lost consciousness, causing the War Gods to be surprised. Well, there's nothing they could aside from trusting his words.

”Leave him to me, you guys.” The Sect Master stepped forward and carried Raven. ”I'm sure you all are tired from your journey, go back and rest. You can visit him here, once  you've properly rested.”

The War Gods wanted to say something but in the end, they didn't. They saluted and climbed down the mountains in order to return to their homes and have a proper rest.

”Kid's a monster through and through.” The Grand Elder chuckled as he walked back with the Sect Master.

They looked up and observed the giant rune releasing some faint melodies. The Sect Master smiled in gratitude and said:

”Yep. He truly is. We're too lucky to have him.”
