Standing before large crates, Raven used his Collector's Gloves to either double the items he touched or enhance their effects, which turned out to have a better result than he had initially believed it would be!
Previously, he thought by using his white glove to boost a treasure's skills would be only by a small degree, like if he touched a Golden Vein Bracelet that could increase one's Mystique by 5 points it would grow to 7 or 8, but it seemed that was not the case at all!
It turned out that if the treasure increased one's Avatar Trait he could increase the basic amount by at least 5 points while if it was a skill or ability he could enhance their effects such as radius or simply decrease their activation requirements such as Mystique!
Furthermore, because he was using his gloves within the Realm Domain, where his Reverse Star-Crossed Necklace could work properly, he succeeded almost all the time, only failing to use his gloves' abilities once or twice after every 100 attempts!
In the end, he literally doubled the amount of wealth the Black Moon Guild had previously, indicating that at this moment, without any shadow of a doubt, they were the strongest and the wealthiest guild among all the currently existing guilds!
"This was the last one?" handing a small blue ring to one of the guild members who will bring the things back to the warehouse where every collected resource was kept, Dan turned around to face his son who at this moment was gazing at the large hotel in the distance.
Thomas, standing beside Dan as if suddenly realizing something put his hands into the small pouch that always hung on his waist and pulled out a few times, including the Storage Box that was capable of keeping numerous items within.
Old Dan upon seeing this slapped himself on the face and quickly took down the accessories from his body. It seemed, that he was so immersed in marveling over his son's achievements that he completely forgot that he also had treasures in his body.
Raven just smiled and without hesitation used his gloves' powers to enhance the effects on the accessories while only using his duplication ability on the little box. Of course, out of the 10 or so treasures, his gloves' ability failed, but luckily just once.
As for Luna, Raven had no chance but to use his gloves on her treasures at a later date as she currently was not around. She had been sent to explore a newly emerged Realm Gate with Darwin; she was told to do so by Old Dan, but for what reason, Raven didn't know.
Perhaps because she was one of the strongest members within the Black Moon Guild, hence her presence was needed while Old Dan, Thomas, and Raven were doing their tasks here.
"Anything else?" Raven asked as he couldn't stop but occasionally steal glances toward the hotel's direction in the center of the Realm Domain.
"Master Dan, if I may. I believe it would be a great idea to use the Young Master's gloves on the treasures of our guild members too." Thomas suddenly brought up an idea.
Old Dan looked at his butler and after pondering a little while he nodded softly.
"That is indeed a great idea. Though, as everyone is far away and busy exploring Realm Gates as they had been tasked, we should do this later when everything has calmed down a little."
"About that, I don't think that would be a great idea."
"Huh? What do you mean by that?" Old Dan looked at Raven with a raised brow when hearing him suddenly talking.
Raven, as an answer, just took out his small manual from his pocket and opened it on a specific page.
--------------
Worlds' Clash, universal competition among all living races in existence until only one stands!
<23 days, 12 hours, and 1 minute before the start of the first round!>
--------------
"I don't know if you all have forgotten about this, but I did not." Raven stated calmly but also with a grave face, "Although 23 days are a lot, considering that we have the most resources after the Realm Association and yet we were able to increase our Ranks only just by 1, at the very best by 2, it is a pathetically small amount of time."
"Like, in the last Realm Game, Luna, who had several of her Traits above 10 points was almost killed if it were not for me coming to her rescue at the very last moment!"
"But you said you said you killed the beast with a single strike." Dan showed a small frown while deep within his heart he started to understand what his son was trying to say.
Raven rolled his eyes and said, "Yeah, I did. But only because the weapon I used at that moment granted me great strength while my Traits were way above average."
He then slowly added, "Though, if I want to be completely honest, if it hadn't been for my weapon, I am pretty sure I would have died at that moment."
"Young Master, you underestimate yourself and your strength way too much," Thomas added coolly, however, Raven still shook his head.
"I don't, Thomas. Although it is true that I only have a rough guess about my real strength when it comes to my Traits, I know for sure that I was able to kill that beast because I have caught off its guard." Raven said gravely, even recalling how the large spider moved just as fast as him despite it not even taking him as a serious threat!
For some reason, Raven had a hunch that with his current strength if he would encounter the beast for a second time, he would stand only a little chance to emerge as the victor and would very likely die in seconds!
Seeing as Old Dan and Thomas looked at each other and pondered silently, Raven sighed and said, "What I want to say with all this, is that even with all the resources we have acquired so far, we are so weak that 99% of us would die without the chance to put up a fight against a beast that is seemingly just a simple enemy inside the 'weakest' type of Realm Games!"
"And exactly because of this, I think we should do everything we can to become strong as fast as possible and wait for nothing. After all, we don't know what chaos will wait for us once this "Worlds' Clash" will start."
Old Dan touched his chin once Raven finished talking and hummed quietly.
"Yeah, you are right. Although I am sure we did not waste our time in these 8 days, our process is still considered slow so we should really pick our pace up."
"Though, because we can't just halt and leave all of our work with the Realm Gates behind, not even for a day, as at the end of the day the majority of our resources and information are gathered from them, we first have to make a schedule to make sure Raven will be able to use his power on everyone."
"That, please leave it to me." Thomas bowed gently before he said, "Though, I would advise in collecting the items and accessories from everyone and allowing the Young Master to use his treasure on them in privacy. That way, we can avoid 'unwanted' attention falling on us."
Knowing what Thomas meant by his words Old Dan nodded, showing he found the idea suitable for numerous reasons.
Raven listened to his father's and Old Dan's conversation in silence, and while he was a little puzzled why they won't just decide to collect every guild member's accessories and items while letting them continue on with their tasks, he quickly realized the reason.
It was because without their treasures equipped, they would become significantly weaker, meaning their chances to succeed to complete Realm Games or clearing Realm Domains would drop dramatically too!
This, obviously would give the other guilds that competed against them not only the perfect chance to catch up but also to attempt to report their inefficiency to the Realm Association which as a result would give their currently owned Realm Gates or Realm Domains to other guilds, forcing the Black Moon Guild to lose huge amounts of resources and wealth in instants!
Thinking about this, Raven directed his gaze at the large building in the far distance, only to be halted by a firm grip on his arm just before he could have taken his second step.
