Chapter 613: Poppy and Myleene (1/2)

'Ugh, geez. I overdid it...again. A shocker really...'

This was Raven's initial thoughts upon regaining consciousness. His head throbbed painfully and he could feel his entire body sore.

He opened his eyes to see a rather familiar ceiling. It didn't take long for him to realize that he was back to his own room. He spread his senses out and felt Kyrie's presence nearby, she was sitting on one of the desk while sorting out some paperwork. He also saw his army doing drills on the fields.

Raven retracted his probe and sensed his body. He sighed in relief as he saw that aside from the soreness of his body and his nearly emptied Cosmic Energies, he didn't sustain any injuries. It shouldn't take long for him to recover from this.

With that said, Raven summoned the Brush of Wisdom and sealed the entire room. Before doing so however, he made sure to send a voice transmission to Kyrie, telling him that he's awake and fine, he also told him that he needed some time to recover properly so he ordered her to not allow anyone to disturb him.

Kyrie followed his orders and after that, Raven went inside the Crown Space for the first time in a while.

A comforted smile appeared on his face as he appeared in the Cultivation Eden, feeling the abundant energy source in here. He scooped some Equinox Waters and drank it, after that he sat down to recover his missing energies while also healing the soreness of his body.

With the aid of Equinox Waters, his recovery hastened. The soreness of his body also disappeared immediately, making Raven sigh in comfort.

'Ah, how nice. I truly missed being in this place. I still can't believe that there was something on Mount Olympus that could block my entry here. Well, doesn't matter anymore I guess. It's all in the past.'

Raven continued drinking Equinox Waters until he fully recovered from his Cosmic Energies. After that, Raven stood up and took the time to check how much Divine Spring Liquid he had managed to collect so far.

Majority of the Divine Spring Liquid that he received from the Sect Master to him was preserved by Raven as he planned on making more through converting Equinox Waters. So far, there is a large glob of it at the very core of the Equinox Waters Nebula. If Raven were to harvest it now, he could easily fill at least twenty potion bottles with them, which is a lot considering that he initially only had a mere handful of it.

Seeing this brought a smile to his face, he decided to let it be for now as he had other matters to attend to.

He sat down on the largest Star Gazing Mat and began integrating with the insights his Avatars prepared for him. Once again, Raven found himself swimming in a sea of profundity as his knowledge about the Mysteries of Heaven and Earth became richer. Although he's still a bit far from making another breakthrough, he could still feel himself getting stronger.

It took Raven a whole month to integrate with the insights of his Avatars. Once he woke up from his meditation, he was surprised to see four blurry silhouettes of people sitting in front of him, and they clearly weren't his Avatars.

”Yo! Finished integrating with the Insights of your Avatars?”

”Inos, Astrid! It's been a while...” Raven then looked at the two people beside them as asked: ”And these are?”

”Previous Heirs just like us. Poppy and Myleene.” Astrid gestured while to waved hello to Raven.

”Nice to meet you.” Raven greeted.

”We finally met, 9th Candidate.” The woman with a short stature smiled at him. ”The name's Poppy!”

”Nice to meet you too, 9th Candidate.” The tall woman with pointy ears and beautiful green dress greeted back, ” I am Myleene.”

”Raven Valorheart, well I guess you already knew that.” Raven chuckled and shook hands with them, not like they could physically interact with each other but it's the thought that matters.

”Yes, we know you. We've been watching you closely ever since you fused with the Ancestral Divine Crown.” Poppy informed.

”We are also gratified about your progress. In fact it was thanks to you that we could at least finally move around.” Myleene told him, which caused Raven to feel a bit surprised.

”What do you mean? How did I do that?”

Poppy chuckled and said: ”I am an Earthen Elf, also known as a Dwarf.”
