Whoosh!

[Relic: Lost Pirate's Scroll]
• Grade: Epic
• Form: Initial
• Description: An ancient scroll that was held by an unknown pirate until her very last breath, allowing her soul to seep into it. They say whoever succeeds in summoning her soul from within gets blessed with a small amount of her Constitution.
<Activation: In exchange for 10 Mystique Points you can summon the pirate's soul sealed within the scroll, helping you to scout your surroundings!>
<Cooldown: Lost Pirate will consume 10 Mystique Points after every 1 minute, however, if it gets killed the Activation requirement doubles!>
--------------------------
"Lost Pirate?" Raven read the details of the scroll as he chugged down the liquid from the Avatar Flask he had bought way back in the Realm Shop, increasing his Vitality by 3!
"What are you looking at?" slowing down her speed Luna stepped beside Raven, her right shoulder softly leaning against Raven's left.
Seeing that Luna was not nervous at all and even read the text above the scroll with curious eyes Raven couldn't help but shake his head helplessly and while grabbing the red string around the scroll he said, "This is what I have gotten this time after throwing the dice."
"Looks pretty useful. Wanna try summoning this Lost Pirate?" Luna asked as she raised her beautiful violet eyes at Raven's face.
"Yeah, let's try it." Raven nodded his head and just like how he did when he still had his Moon Rabbit Slipper, here too used 10 points of Mystique out of his total 200.
Whoosh!
A small white circle filled with numerous unknown symbols suddenly formed before Raven's feet, forcing him and Luna to halt their steps and watch as a hand emerged from within and once it got a firm grip on the ground slowly started to pull the body up!
This change obviously made Old Dan and the other two on his side stop walking. However, when they saw the sight before the feet of Raven and Luna with the already creepy scenery around them, all three of their faces paled.
The sight was very similar to a skeleton or a zombie climbing out of its grave in a cemetery at midnight, coming back to life to take revenge on the ones that sent it into its unwanted demise!
"Everyone, just take a deep breath and calm down. She is harmless." Raven asserted calmly, while within his heart he added, 'Despite she has a rather scary appearance...'
The thing that climbed out of the white circle was a woman with human female features and clothes akin to a pirate. The only difference was that her whole body was half-transparent while her whole body, including her face, was rotten!
She looked like an undead from the most hideous horror movie in existence!
Swish!
While everyone was in awe and motionless from the shock, the pirate woman looked at the scroll in Raven's eyes for a second before directing her gaze at the massive building in the distance. Then, as if deciding on what she should do next, she started to float toward the latter, quickly vanishing from everyone's eyes.
"What was that just now?" snapping out of his daze Old Dan looked at Raven, who seemingly wished to reply watched as the scroll in his hold rolled open, revealing nothing but an empty interior!
Or at least was empty for a second or two before things slowly started to form on its surface!
"Isn't this... a building's layout?" Luna exclaimed out loud which quickly attracted the attention of everyone onto the scroll.
"Yeah, that is a layout out indeed. But this one is a pretty basic one." Darwin took a step closer and continued, "These lines here are the hallways, these little dimples are doors, as for the bigger but different shaped forms like the square here are larger rooms and halls."
"It seems whatever that thing was, it explores the building and we can see it! Haha! Great job brat!" Old Dan laughed with joy and patted Raven on the shoulder.
"And what about these small dots all around the place?" Luna asked as she pointed at the numerous small black dots on the scroll, each located in hallways or in bigger halls and rooms!
"That... I fear we have to find out." Old Dan said despite having a hunch, and quickly led the way into the building, which from closer look seemed way more colossal than from the distance!
After giving a moment to admire the size of the building, Old Dan grabbed the handle of the door and opened it with caution. However, the moment the door opened wide and revealed the sight on the other side, his eyes widened which was the exact same reaction as Raven!
"Father? Raven? What happened? You two look as if you have just seen a ghost." Luna asked, even pressing her delicate index finger against Raven's cheeks.
But it did nothing to Raven nor did Old Dan react, but simply stared at the scenery around them with widened eyes and loosened jaws.
As for why? It was because what they first felt was the case when they entered the Realm Domain turned out to be the case indeed! The massive building was indeed the huge hotel wherein they ran away from the large reptiles!
There were even three floating crystals, one on either side and one in the center of tha room where they were currently standing, seemingly being the reception hall where they started the Realm Game.
"So these dots on my map are... the crystals, huh?" Raven mumbled, and his guess which he didn't say until now turned out to be correct.
"And what can they do?" Luna asked and grabbed the crystal, which the very moment it came into contact with her hand turned into crystal dust.
"Nothing?" Luna seemed disappointed and watched as Raven walked to the crystal on the right and extended his hand toward it.
However, in contrast to what happened to Luna the moment Raven grabbed the crystal it lit up with a gentle purple glow and quickly changed shape, turning into a bottle filled with golden liquid!
------------
[Avatar Flask: Mystique]
• Description: By drinking the fluid from within this bottle your Mystique increases by 8 points!
-------------
"Holy cow!"
Raven's eyes threatened to fall out of their eye sockets when he read the description of the Avatar Flask, completely unaware that the necklace hanging down on his neck was glowing with a soft white light before slowly turning back to normal.
"Hey! That's unfair! How did you do it?" Luna quickly appeared beside his brother which surprised Raven as she moved fast, but just as he wished to ask how she did it Luna raised both hands before her chest and while wiggling her index fingers against each other she looked at him with cute puppy-like eyes.
Raven immidieatly understood what she wished and shook his head, "Nope, that won't work on me this time. This one is mine!"
Then, without further ado, he quickly poured the content of the bottle down his throat and once he gulped down the last drop he wiped the corner of his mouth and looked at Luna with a smirk.
