YM778.TV Chapter 266 - A Long Lasting Dawn Part 3
"What are you smiling about?" Gaia\'s little figure asked in confusion. She was expecting Raven to be slightly stressed if anything, not smiling from ear to ear.
"Isn\'t it obvious?" Kayla asked through her similarly sized avatar.
"Hm…" Gaia stroked her chin in a thinking posture. "Is she happy because she\'ll meet Maya soon?"
"Bingo!" Kayla smirked.
Hearing that, Gaia smiled slightly while getting stressed all of a sudden. She knew that it wasn\'t necessarily a good thing meeting Maya this time but she didn\'t want to ruin the mood so she simply shut her mouth.
Raven who was sitting silently suddenly glanced at Kayla and flicked her little forehead.
"Hey, what did I do?!" Kayla complained.
"Can you show me my Status Page? It\'s been a while…" Raven asked while scratching her cheek.
"You could have just asked nicely…" Kayla mumbled while activating the system and loading Raven\'s Status Page.

…
Nodding at her status page, Raven had a cute grin on her face. She subconsciously felt pride taking over as she observed again and again.
"What\'s the smug look for?" Gaia asked with a tilted head.
"Can\'t you see?" Kayla asked, surprised. "She created many extra Combination Skills which is pretty awesome, if I\'m being honest.
"You may not realize how hard creating a new combination skill really is, but I know and I agree with her smug grin!" saying that, Kayla adopted a pose on Raven\'s shoulder and grinned, marching her expression.
"You tell her, Kay!" Raven\'s grin turned into a sweet chuckle that seemed to be out of character for her, but she didn\'t mind at all.
"Hm, well, good job!" Gaia went with the flow and raised her two tiny thumbs for Raven in approval. "I can also see that your skills that are related to mana control have reached really high attainments, really good, I approve!"
"Of course!" Kayla nodded happily. "The Mana Refinement process was quite a success! Raven\'s the boss!"
"Hehe, there you go, you two should just praise me like this all the time!" Raven covered her mouth and giggled like a schoolgirl that had no concerns in life.
The two of Gaia and Kayla suddenly burst out laughing with tears in their eyes, unable to hold back any longer.
For any stranger, these three girls seemed to have no care in the world. They looked as if they were simply enjoying the morning sun and chilly dawn air.
Only those who are close to them would recognize the stress hidden in their seemingly innocent smiles and cute chuckles.
But in any case, life wasn\'t meant to be this easy to enjoy nor was it meant to be easy on the naive!
The careless atmosphere didn\'t last long. After a few more minutes of chatting with the two of Kayla and Gaia, Raven suddenly looked up at the cloudy sky.
Narrowing her eyes, she suddenly had a horrible feeling taking over her senses. She didn\'t know why or how, but she felt as though a million ants decided to take a bite of her skin all at once.
Looking at her expression, Kayla and Gaia tilted their heads in an inquiring manner. "What\'s up?" They both asked at the same time.
"Can you not feel it?" She asked, confused.
"Feel… what?"
"Look at the sun!" She instinctively ordered while clenching her fists.
Gaia and Kayla looked over at the sin that was slowly rising, but to their surprise… There was nothing special about it.
"Raven?" Kayla called in concern.
"Did you hit your head? Are you seeing things?" Gaia asked while scratching her tiny head.
"No, describe what you see, slowly," Raven swallowed loudly.
"Err, let me see…" Gaia said in a teasing voice. "The sun was rising, but now it\'s covered in clouds! Wow, big deal!"
"Wait…" suddenly, Kayla widened her eyes.
"Wait what?" Gaia asked, suddenly having a bad feeling. It can\'t be that both girls are seeing things at the same time, there must be something!
"The weather today... it should be a clear sky!" Kayla looked up in horror as she hugged Raven\'s hair instinctively.
"So what!?" Gaia who was in the dark was more angry than confused at the moment.
"The sun is going to be covered, huh?" Raven ignored Gaia while saying between clenched white teeth. "Are they planning on having this dawn, this twilight, be a long lasting one?"
"Oh…" All of a sudden, Gaia felt her hair stand to an end.. She suddenly understood the two girls\' remarks. "Those are not clouds… those are white feathers! The angels are here!"
