"How is he?" Mark asked as soon as he and the rest arrived. At Raven's house…at least what remains of it.
Everything broke down into pieces, this place is more of a wreckage instead of a house honestly.
Luna shook her head and sighed, she looked at her lover with worry evident in her eyes. "He's still unconscious even after a month."
That's right. Raven had been in this state for an entire month now.
When they received reports about an accident at Raven's house, he was already at this state. Unconscious and completely unaware of the destruction of his own house.
At first they weren't able to approach him due to the strange phenona coming off of him. It was when the King personally arrived along with his advisors that they were able to understand what's going on with him.
Raven was experiencing a Law Baptism, also known as Law Enlightennt.
Of course, everyone was happy that Raven was finally being enlightened after all this ti. Yet as ti goes on, they got more and more worried since he was taking a long ti.
Unlike Luna and the rest of the team's enlightennt which only spanned for re days, Raven is already at it for a month, and there are no signs of him waking up at all.
Frankly speaking, no one in entire Kingdom knew what kind of Law Raven gained enlightennt upon, not even the King for that matter. They also have no idea why it's taking him so long, which worries them since Raven is a crucial character for the Kingdom.
They already tried waking him up, even if it ans cutting his enlightennt short. Unfortunately, no matter what they did, Raven remained unconscious. It was like he was trapped in a dream. They even tried moving him to a different place but they couldn't since Raven's body just refuses to move. They also thought that it might be a bad idea to move him so instead, they just made a barricade around the wreckage of Raven's ho and made it an off-limits area. For now, that had no other option other than to wait for him to naturally regain consciousness.
Inside Raven's core where his consciousness was stranded. He could be found sitting on a ditative position. Even Raven himself didn't know how he ended up in this position, not that he could notice anything at the mont anyway.
His eyes were open, yet there were no traces of awareness in them. His breathing was incredibly shallow, yet he looked comfortable.
It also had to be ntioned that he was now sitting on top of the sun-like orb which was the condensation of his own Chaos Force. The body of his consciousness is adored by tendrils of Chaos Force that the sun-like orb was emitting.
Raven had been sitting like this for a month now, seemingly lifeless yet alive and well.
Out of nowhere, a brilliant golden light appeared inside the core space when Raven's consciousness were. It flew so fast, much like a shooting star and stopped on top of Raven's head.
There, the true appearance of the golden light was revealed. It was a golden crown filled with an archaic and majestic presence. There are nine gem slots on the surface of the crown, the first eight were filled with different kinds of gemstone while the 9th remained empty.
Slowly, the Crown gently lowered and placed itself on top of Raven's head. It was a perfect fit, almost as if this crown was made for Raven alone.
When the Ancestral Divine Crown touched Raven's head, it radiated with an intense glow, almost rivalling that of the sun's.
Strangely, sothing appeared on Raven's body. It was just an outline of what looks like clothes but it was no less than impressive. When that appeared on Raven, the sun-like orb beneath him shook fiercely which was strange considering that this never happened before. The shaking faded as quickly as it ca, and it's surface returned back to it's peaceful state.
The intense golden light eventually faded, and when it did. Raven could be found standing up, with his eyes wide open and gleaming with understanding and clarity.
He raised closed his fist and threw a punch in front of him. His fist seemingly hit a solid surface even though there was nothing in front of him. Web-like cracks started spreading outwards from his fist, it stretched for about three inches until Raven felt a rebound which caused his fist to recoil back.
The pain from the recoil completely returned Raven's senses and made him awake. He started incredously at the fading cracks in front of him and began to feel a strong sense of glee from the very depths of his heart.
He inhaled sharply and suppressed his emotions who were threatening to go into turmoil. He only let out a small grin and gripped his fist closely in excitent.
"Finally!" He whispered emotionally, "That took a while."
He stared at his hands and felt the strange sense of strength coursing in them. There is sothing inside of him that cannot be seen with the naked eye. He could feel it flowing, he knows how to use but at the sa ti, he had no idea just how well he could use it. This power was strong, it is the strength of a Law so it's given.
What's even more strange is that, he knew just how many things he could do with this new power but at the sa ti, he doesn't feel confident about actually performing them as well.
"Law of Destruction." Raven muttered, "This is unexpected, I never thought that it would be possible for to gain enlightennt with this law."
Destruction Laws, one of the many Laws that kept the balance of the world. Unlike the regular Laws that corresponds to a certain elent, Destruction is considered as a process - a part of the cycle. What exists will eventually be destroyed. In a sense, Destruction is a form of Death for sothing but it is much more than that. And it would be Raven's job to unfold more of it's mysteries.
Just like majority of the Laws, Destruction Laws have different realms to study, naly: Breaking, Shattering, Pulverizing, Disintegration, Annihilation. All of these elents corresponds to the nature of Destruction, and if Raven could reach a certain mastery over these branches, then he would be unstoppable.
"But is it needed for to experience that kind of suffering just to gain enlightennt?" Raven muttered to himself, "I thought I placed a leash over the extremities of my emotions though? Is it really due to my enlightennt? But I've never heard soone experiencing anything like that. Even back in my past life, my enlightennt was more subtle and calm compared to now. What's going on?"
Raven was genuinely confused, he tried sifting through his old mories until his current ones to check if there were soone who experience that sa thing but none cos to mind. He thought if it would be wise to ask the King about it or not but he couldn't decide yet. Inos is currently not available, he's probably slumbering inside the chambers of the Crown Space that's currently unreachable to Raven just yet.
"Do I really need to wait until I cleared the 50 pocket dinsion in order to ask him?" Raven thought out loud.
He reckon that the King might not have any answers for him since he, like Luna, gained enlightennt with Light Laws. He believed that just like Luna, the King's enlightennt process was subtle as well.
"Hmm?" Raven frowned and faintly felt sothing on his head, he then tried touching it but his hands couldn't feel anything but the sensation was there. He activated his ocular technique which allowed him to see himself and saw that he was wearing Ancestral Divine Crown. "Why is this here? What happened?"
Raven touched the connection between him and the crown and he felt that it humd happily. He checked if there's anything wrong but felt like everything was the sa. So why did it appear on top of his head then? Raven really couldn't rember anything during his enlightennt, it was like he just woke up from a long sleep and suddenly woke up with the power of Laws.
He tried going inside the Crown Space but was surprised that his entrance was barred. He thought that it must be because the daily entrance limit hasn't ended yet, which gave him an idea that he must've been in the state of enlightennt for a few hours.
Raven was sowhat lost, there were too many unanswered questions on his mind. He cald himself down and started thinking rationally. He got rid of the questions that he couldn't find answers for now and instead focused on the on the easier questions for now.
For now, he focused at the more practical questions. An example would be, how long did his enlightennt last exactly? And in order for him figure that out, he had to return to his body first and check the current date and ti with his neighbors or sothing.
That being said, it really makes one wonder. What would he feel if he found out that he was in enlightennt for a straight month?
