BXBX NOVEL Chapter 29 Boosted Luck! (1)
"H-Hey! Lulu! Did you go in... sane... woah..." shocked by the sudden pull by Luna, Raven was ready to scold his little sister for doing such a reckless thing without considering the consequences, but once his body passed through the barrier his words got stuck in his throat and his eyes widened.
Right before him, the middle region of the forest vanished and what replaced it was beautiful stone pavement with black steel Victorian-styled lamps standing next to each other on both of its sides, leading the way into the distance where a massive building stood.
One had to note down that Old Dan's mansion alone was around 450-500 square meters while the building before Luna and Raven was at least four times if not five times bigger than that!
The building, however, while being insanely big was incredibly old, almost looking like an ancient hotel from the 1950s if not even older than that!
The walls of it were made out of red brick with the edges and frames of its windows and doors being snow white. Its roof, which was at least 20 meters tall above the ground, was completely flat without any chance to see what was on it.
Furthermore, to make the whole scenery of the hotel even more bizarre, the yellowish lights oozing out of it through the windows under the night sky gave the construction an eerie and haunted feeling, especially with the leafless trees standing everywhere around it!
Only lightning and thunder were missed to make the whole view before the two look like real haunted scenery from a horror movie!
"So is this a Realm Domain? This is how one looks like from the inside?" Luna mumbled, but a second later she watched with scarce surprise as a magic panel suddenly popped up before her and Raven's faces.
[You have entered a Realm Domain!]
[All 'Limitations' now will be lifted!]
Whoosh!
Not even a second after the panels materialized out of thin air before both Raven and Luna the two felt as if something within them opened scarcely and in the next moment a warm and comfortable sensation swept through their whole bodies.
This was especially true for Raven, who from the previous time now felt as if his skin turned rock solid while the vision in his eyes turned sharp and more clear. He could even swear the movement of the branches around him felt slightly slower than usual.
Whoosh!
As Raven was considering if all these weird changes were because of his now increased Constitution and Dexterity, suddenly the small dice shaped into reality before him just like the start of his previous two Realm Games.
It seemed just like how before Realm Games, here in Realm Domains too he could throw the dice to get one random relic!
"That is your Artifact?" Luna asked with curiosity upon seeing Raven grab the small dice.
"Yeah. However, it is a rather weird one." Raven explained calmly, not fearing that he was telling Luna about his Artifact as just like she trusted him with everything, he was the same too.
In fact, Luna held so many of his secrets that Raven could hardly count them on both of his hands.
"That... Quite an interesting ability to have." Luna mumbled and watched as Raven broke the remaining crystal above his dice, increasing its Form and surprisingly its Grade by one!

Whoosh!
While Raven watched that the information about his Artifact popped up with newer information within, three sides of the dice out of six now had two golden stars on them instead of one!
"Let's signal to the others." Raven then said and extended his hand toward the barrier and watched as his hand vanished the moment it crossed through the vibrant layer.
Of course, on the other side, Old Dan and the others seeing how a hand popped out of the barrier, gesturing a thumbs up were surprised at first but knowing it was Raven's hand they calmed down and walked into the Realm Domain.
And just like how Raven did it, the three of them exclaimed out with shock too seeing the massive building with the haunted scenery around it.
However, there were slight changes Raven immediately noticed the moment the three entered. For instance, on Old Dan's right ring finger a weird-looking ring with the shape of an old silhouetted scale appeared.
On the other hand, on Thomas' right eye a monocle materialized with a golden frame, giving him with his butler uniform a rather gentlemen appearance. Though, while it looked like an antique, the Artifact was a rather useful one as it allowed Thomas to see objects and beings' trajectories alike in exchange for Mystique.
As for Darwin, on both his hands a white and thin layered gauntlet appeared, around its knuckles air seemingly swirling in a vortex. His Artifact was called Shockwave Gauntlet and according to the information he told to Old Dan and the rest with a punch he could send shockwaves.
Furthermore, depending on how much Mystique he decided to choose he could increase its size and the distance it could travel together with its strength and damage it could cause upon impact!
"Are you guys ready?" standing at the perimeter of the forest for an entire minute, Old Dan asked, and when he saw everyone nod a little nervously he started to lead the way toward the building.
Raven, however, didn't follow after Old Dan and the others immediately but instead waved his hand and threw his dice, watching as it fell onto the grass before his feet with a side facing upward that had two stars on it!
'It really is working?' Raven's eyes widened slightly as he subconsciously touched his necklace and watched as the dice quickly changed into a small item, seemingly being a rolled-up parchment scroll with a red string tied around its middle part.
