The Dragon'S Blue Gem
(S3) Chapter 186 [Time Skip]

As explained earlier, the busy days for Raven and the world came after that.

Once Raven finished spreading the information that made the world in an uproar, the important people from all over the world no longer had free time. Starting from the Magic Tower, the Human Empire, the Holy Empire, the Elf Kingdom, the Beastskin Kingdom, to the other small kingdoms in the Magic Continent became very busy. Of course Raven herself was not silent.

Thanks to Leviathan saying they still have time, Aqua soon devises a new plan with her colleagues (including Eve who has already cooled her head, or that's what Aqua knows). Raven had already made some plans to increase their influence and power, but they were long-term plans that took a while. And because they do not have much time, inevitably some of the plan must be accelerated even though it means forcing themselves.

The rest of the plan could not yet be carried out as it required some important people in Demetria, whereas the important people themselves did not have the time to get involved, at least for now. So Aqua put these plans on hold until they saw an opportunity to do so.

While carrying out the plans that can be run, Raven continues their activities at the academy. It was not in vain, because in the current situation, the academy could not carry out ordinary teaching and learning activities. Ashlan, as the director of the academy increased the level of difficulty of his Academy. Although that meant that there would be more eliminated disciples, it also meant that the remaining disciples would be more qualified.

The increasing level of difficulty and busyness certainly takes the time of the students, so that no one else had time to do something futile like bullying and others. The Attack Magic Division had completely tortured itself into various life and death battles. The Healing Magic Division was extremely draining of their mana to continuously heal people (mostly disciples of the Attack Division and Protective Magic). The Protective Magic Division had to suffer various injuries due to their destroyed protective magic. The Magic Tool Division never left their room until they created something useful. Lastly the Magic Support Division learned how to support that was able to increase the strength of Dealer Damage by many times.

The academy is no longer the same academy with an otome game setting that waku-waku about doki-doki (in essence shoujo really), no longer the genre of romance reverse Harem warm and seasoned a little action seasoning. The academy had turned into a forest where the weak would not survive. All the disciples knew that, so none of them lived as before.

Party heroes from other worlds begin to realize how serious and dangerous this world is. The nobles from various regions had no chance of being spoiled and arrogant anymore. And Raven remained as serious as ever.

Aqua (who disguises herself as Citrine) continues to enhance her weakest magic elements of light and healing magic while continuing to train other elements with Eve. Lix, Pietro and Eli who had not mastered assault magic had also taken the academy lessons seriously as well as learned from their respective special teachers. Lix learned assassin skills and poison utilization from the Assassin Guild on Raven's recommendation. Pietro learned about finances directly from the Trading Guild's master Guild. Eli.. just take Academy lessons more seriously and get used to "dead" so he doesn't fear getting hurt. Elvira and Elvina also trained on Eve about magic and practiced spear skills personally.

And lastly Eve, she came to the academy as usual as Ruby. Eve would change her hair color to blonde when she was in the academy. Of course, just changing the color of his hair will not make his plausibility reduced. Because, not only became more mature, Eve's appearance was also too beautiful and shining thanks to her angel side. But because her face and eyes were taken from Ruby's and the mana also felt like Ruby's (where Yue Mika Ruby was both golden), no one could deny that she was Ruby. And no one had the time to question his identity either. Thanks to that, no problems happened.

Eve spends her time on research, running most of Raven's plans and teaching her friends about magic because after all, of all the Raven members, the, The event that is arguably the most intelligent and powerful (if the power returns). He doesn't need any lessons from the Academy.

Live fight? His battle experience was far more than anyone else. Magical knowledge? Is there anyone smarter than Eve in this world? Magic skills? He mastered all kinds of magic that existed in the world, he just could not use a part of it due to the limitations of where beings were within the limits, he said, that was why he was continuously conducting magic research to create new magic.

Such Eve realized that the rest of their time to get stronger was too little. And when he thought of a way to gain more time, the memory of the time dungeon where it was sealed passed through his head. Eve advises Raven and their important subordinates to go there. Although the monsters there had already been wiped out by Aqua and Mika when they exited the dungeon, they could still take advantage of the time difference to practice.

And so, these busy days go by so quickly. It's been 2.5 years since then.

"Oi! After graduation, what do you want to be?" ask a student.

"Ahh. I was told to inherit my family business. I want to be an Adventure" complained another student.

"That's for sure. In this day and age, no one wants to be an adventure!"

"Pastime! Many are successful as Adventure, you see!"

Like the male disciples, the female students were no less excited.

"They are great!! Were it not for them, a new era would not have formed!"

"Really! Aye! Even many say, if they are the master of the shadow of the world. One of them alone had already exceeded the nobles! No, nobility alone lost to them!!" another girl.

"They can't be compared to the others. Really duh! Whether in reputation, wealth, power, power, etc they are far greater than anyone."

"Just try if I can join them. My life must be good!"

"Don't dream! To them, you're just an ant on the side of the road!"

"Evil!!! But it is. Their reputation is crazy. The leader and founder of the Adventure association, the ruler of the underworld, organizations with very high levels, relationships with the great people of the world and much more. Just crazy! Raven is crazy!!"

"It's a shame we can't know who they really are."

"Yes, when they come out, they always wear special robes and masks. Though I'm sure, they must be beautiful and handsome!"

"That's sure!!! Especially the Raven Leader, Mr. Gluttony! Ahhe... Mr. Gluttony must have been a crazy handsome!"

"You're a fan of Mr Gluttony?"

"Sure! Who is not a fan of him? He's the center of Raven! All the crazy ideas that go worldwide today are because of Mr. Gluttony."

"I'm also a fan of Mr. Gluttony. But what I like most in Raven is Mr. Greed! His friendly nature is unflinching. Mr. Gluttony is so cold, it's like the Ice King."

"He's that. I'm sure he's handsome. Friendly too, but not my type. Because Mr. Wrath is a playboy."

"Well! Whoa! You don't know the charm of a bad guy!!"

"Mahaha..."

"Anu..."

One of the girls walking with them interrupted the conversation. The girl followed with a confused face.

"Hmm? Why?"

"Actually from earlier... What are you talking about?" said doubt.

"!!!!!!!!!!"

All the girls there were shocked. They didn't expect there to be anyone who didn't know Raven.

"Are you the Princess locked up in the castle?! Can you not know Raven?!! They're super famous to know!!"

"Yes! Aye! Even a child knows who Raven is!!"

".... Hence, since I don't know, tell me dong, senior brother."

"Ha~ah. Let me explain. Raven is a small group of 7 people. However the group was extremely strong, each of them was estimated to have been over 500 level. Even Mr. Gluttony, their leader is up to 1000."

"500!!!? 1000?!!!!" surprised the girl.

"Yep, Yep, great, right? They formed about 5 years ago. But just in that time, Raven already held the world in her hands."

"?"

"I mean, they already have more power than an Emperor. You know that ever since the Hero rose and the Evil God was defeated, the number of monsters soared drastically? Back then, Raven created the Adventure Association that focused on exterminating monsters. The system was somewhat like a mercenary, but it was more flexible and neat and more profitable. The association itself had already opened branches all over the world, including the Demon Continent. Ah, but the continent of drifting isn't ya."

"Their achievement is not just that. If explained, it will be long. Well, at least I'll tell you one thing. There's no information Raven doesn't know. Raven had more information guilds spread out than the Adventure Association. With all that, all the information will be in Raven's hands."

"Are they not great?!!"

"That's it!!! That's why many people are the same. Even the Emperor alone had to be careful when dealing with them.

"So who is Raven?"

"If asked anyone is difficult too. You see, no one but Raven himself knows the identity of the members. They use pseudonyms. So people call them this."

Envy, The Golden Shadow Princess.

Wrath, The Sneaky Scam.

Pride, The Ice Queen.

Lust, The Temptation Queen.

Sloth, The Pretty Sniper.

Greed, The Little Berserker.

Gluttony, The Prey Dragon's.

"Glutton... The Dragon of Predator. The Empire must get you anyway!!" the determination of the lavender haired girl and the diamond eyes.
