The Dragon'S Blue Gem
(S2) Chapter 53 [Early After End ]
The whole world is in a big mess. Some drastic changes that opened the eyes of many people have been present at this time. No one can resist the temptation of the coming revolutions given by them.
"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."
"What about Mr Wrath?"
"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?"
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 girl's determination.

5 Years Ago
The 94th Floor New Dungeon
A boy with a slender body was sitting quietly in front of the body of a young woman. His gaze was blank, as if he no longer cared about the world. The feeling of wanting to cry, but the tears had run out was enough to torture him.
It's been a few hours that the boy hasn't left there. Not known now day or night. The scenery in the dungeon did not change despite the change in time.
After quite a while, the boy finally moved. His hands were stretched out over his brother's corpse. A warm light green light shot out from his hands. The badly damaged body in front of him returned to its original form. But that will not bring his life back. There is no one in this world who can bring the dead to life, it is already an important rule that the Gods created.
"I'm sorry.I'm sorry brother.I'm sorry." he said.
"If only I had recovered sooner..if only I had not gotten into the Turquoise trap in the first place..."
No matter how much Aqua regretted. He will not be able to return everything as it was. Yet he could still prevent the same tragedy from reoccurring. The necklace Ashlan had given him earlier reminded him of that.
"Remember Aqua! Regretting what has happened can. But dissolved in that regret that should not be. What happened let it happen. All we have to do is not lament the past, but look straight at the future and make sure the events that you regret do not happen a second time!"
Ashlan always advised Aqua on many things. It was these suggestions that helped Aqua when she was in trouble.
Aqua squeezed her necklace with a sad expression.
"You're right, master, I can't mourn what happened..."
PLAAKKKK
The boy slapped his own two cheeks for him to come to his senses. The sad and heartbreaking aura earlier instantly changed with bloodlust and overwhelming killing intent.
"Turquoise! You think I'm gonna die here? It won't!!! I will definitely get out of here and kill you with my own hands!!!"
Aqua turned her face and looked around.
"For that, first I have to make a decision. Whether I'll climb up or I'll go down to the bottom."
Aqua gently touched Citrine's body which began to cool down. The boy stuffed the Elf's body into his inventory.
"I can't put a living thing in it but a corpse can definitely get in. At least.. I want to take my brother's body home to the Vittacelar Kingdom."
When finished, Aqua walked closer to the carcass of Cerberus.
"Cerberus.I don't remember how I defeated him. Level is 700! But I won? It's crazy!"
"The resurrection of the dragon, yes. On the other hand, it is also dangerous. After I defeated Cerberus, my body felt strange. It felt like the humanity in me was dwindling. I better not rely on him too much."
"Well, it's time to try my new skill."
[ The gluttony ]
The body of Cerberus larger than the house was instantly absorbed into Aqua's body. Just by defeating him alone, Aqua had already leveled up a lot. Now he also absorbs it unceremoniously. He gained some knowledge about new magic that Ashlan had not taught and new skills as well.
".... This isn't enough. If I want to have absolute strength where no one can beat me. This is not enough."
"I've pureed! I'll go down to the 100th floor and finish the dungeon. Although life is at stake, I should be able to do it!!"
