Chapter 360 Someone’s Already Whipped
Ken frowned slightly, his expression darkening “If it exists, it should be in Vyrdenia. How did it end up with those Sunset Empire bastards?” As the conversation went on, Ken’s face grew increasingly grim.
After a moment, he hung up, his expression a mix of unease and complexity. “Raven, Raven…”
Ken looked at Raven with pleading eyes, his usually vibrant golden hair seeming to lose its shine. “Your big bro has to step out for a bit. You’re not planning to ditch me again after all the trouble you went through to find me, right?”
Raven chuckled softly, amused by how he looked like a lost puppy with attachment issues. Instead of responding to his antics, she shifted the topic. “How long until Lionel gets here?”
Confusion flashed across Ken’s handsome face at her sudden question. After a moment of thought, he replied honestly,” He spends most of his time stationed in the Southwest Warzone. It’ll take him at least three hours to get here.”
After a brief pause, Raven said decisively, “Anyway, I’ll handle the location from the call for you.”
She hadn’t expected to find any leads on Lola so soon, yet there she was with some fresh intel. Someone had even spotted her moving near the borders of Vyrdenia.
“You’ll go instead of me?” Ken stared at her, stunned by her unexpected offer. He stared at Raven in disbelief. “Wait, did you hear everything from the other end of the call?”
Raven nodded slightly. “Yes.”
Even though Ken had mentally prepared himself for this possibility, her confirmation still sent a wave of shock crashing
over him.
After all, while warriors had sharper hearing than ordinary people, as a Mid–Class Warrior, he was confident that if he had been standing where Raven was, he couldn’t have caught the conversation on the other end of the line.
Yet, Raven had heard it all, loud and clear. “Don’t tell me you’ve already reached Elite Warrior level?” Ken asked hesitantly.
Raven shook her head. “I don’t think I have.” On her way to the Indigo Training Ground, she absorbed a significant amount of purified energy from the Starcard Zach had given her–the one he used to devour the Darkmoon boss’s Starcard.
Thanks to Raven’s overwhelming strength, advancing her level required less effort. By the time she arrived, her power had already leapt from the Star Lord to the early stage of the Star–Sovereign. And she had consumed less than half of that starcard energy.
If all went smoothly, once her body fully absorbed the remaining energy, her strength would at least reach the peak of the Star Sovereign, or perhaps even break through to the Star Emperor.
“Phew, that’s a relief.” Ken sighed when Raven denied being an Elite Warrior. After all, he was on the verge of stepping into
the Elite Warriors rank himself.
His brother had once said that achieving such a milestone at his age would make him a one–in–a–million prodigy. With talent like his, becoming a Star Lord, a Star–Sovereign, or even standing at the pinnacle of the world seemed entirely possible.
