Raven walked back towards the guardian, Zurawa, Tera, Ranga, and Suna, he was still contemplating why his mind was so calm and his heart's rhythm. He could really feel the changes in his body, personality, and his emotions, but before he could think of it, the system beeped up again.

'Shish.. Is this why my mission wasn't completed
directly when I unveil the truth about the forest and the death of the prince? Can the system mission change when it detects a chain like a secret quest, for example? It's good with all these mission rewards, but it will be bad if those secret quests keep popping out of nowhere such seen of secret- quests with a variety of difficulties would not be pleasant if my level is weak. I already confronted a demigod level so I can conclude my last mission would also contain demigod enemies. This won't be good. I can only assert such strength because of the world's power this world itself granted me. If I were in different gates or worlds I could only use the world's power to reach the level of SSS this would be bad. Let's just hope what I will awaken in my abilities would be great forms that could also play as my cards in certain situations.
[DING... BEEZLEBUB HAS NOW DETECTED YOUR PRECENSE]
When Raven was contemplating the system informed him that BEELZEBUB one of the princes of the hell world had noticed his actions and was now eyeing him. Because of this, it was still unknown if Beezlebub would take revenge for killing Bezzle Garua, his champion or avatar in this world, but one thing was certain, he would be meeting Beezlebub in the future, either as an ally or an enemy.
"Great another pain in the ass, looks like this trial gate has pit to a never-ending hole of unknown future" he murmured while he walked toward the others. As he returned with them, he saw everyone bowing to him and thanked him, especially Suna, who was in tears already, while Zurawa, Tera, and Ranga gave their words of thanks, the guardian nodded and all his other puppets kneeled to him without any words but from the puppets action and the guardian leferia, this was how he shows his deep thanks and appreciation for Ravens action.
"You don't need to thank me"
"How can we not, if not for you we could not avenge the prince's death and the sacrifice of all the soldiers made in order to see that moment, it's a shame they don't have the spirit to see this moment," said Ranga while smiling sadly and looking at the other soldiers who could only look but devoid of any emotions without any soul remnant inside them.
"Then can I ask what you're going to do now" He asked directly to Zurawa, looking at his eyes, if he could, he would use one of his rewards to bring them back to life and let them live a life of what they could not in the past?
"We only have 6 days left to live. We plan to serve the princess and enjoy our time in the forest. But sadly to say that we can only do this far for the princess, we are no longer living beings as our souls are slowly dissipating"
Zurawa looked at the princess and bowed with a kind smile, and apologized for not accompanying the princess longer than 6 days.
"No, you already did enough, I'm not a princess anymore and no longer a part of Rosa Kingdom. I'm truly thankful to you, Swordmaster Zurawa, Sniper queen Tera and Hammering lord Ranga and all the soldiers who devote their body and soul till this day to avenge my brother"
As she said those words she was smiling and hug Tera who she has always known as her big sister and was always telling stories when she was at the kingdom even the death of her brother, Tera was hugging her and giving her strength to hold herself up and become what she had for the words of this big sister of her.
"You have always been my younger sister Suna, you have to be strong alright..." Tera said with a smile. Even though she couldn't cry, she still expressed herself with hugs and words like a big sister could say.
"Master Leferia, please free the soldiers from your ability. They already need to rest as they did their duty", Zurawa said to the guardian while bowing, as the pact says, they will become a puppet and guard the forest, and the evil that is sealed in the forest and now that the evil entity Bezzle Garua died they have done their duty.
"Alright... as the guardian and king of the forest, I Leferia has acknowledged your dedication and promise to the pact as I honor thee rules... You are now free from my ability, you may rest eternally without regret and be a foundation of a new life"
the one hundred soldiers of the prince who devote their lives turned into green particles of life that flew to the sky, as they watch they could feel the forest life gave them the rewards the soldiers deserve as they were accompanied with the gentle wind and howl of the animals and some beast that lives in the forest.
"I thank you all my valiant family..." Suna shouted to the particles while crying and embracing Tera like she couldn't part with them but needed to accept it..
Raven looked at this scene, he was more determined to protect his own family, no matter how hard he would need to endure. As he engraved the scene of this soldier's great sacrifice and imagined if such a situation would come to what he treated as his family, he slightly felt fear of the unknown, the only thing that kept ringing in his mind was to get stronger and find people who could help him protect what dears to him. He walked forward and talked to Zurawa if they still wanted to live and to convince them to come into his world.
"Raven, are you saying we can still be resurrected and be in our prime?" When Zurawa heard this from Raven, he looked at Tera. His second regret was not having time with Tera and living a life where he could smile and laugh with the women he loved the most.
Ranga was a bit startled by what he heard before he said a word to Zurawa," Zurawa you are my blood brother, whatever you think is wise, I will follow you" he said while smiling at him.
"Me too. If you think we could live life again and go on an adventure you, me, Ranga and Suna, then, whatever you decide, my love", for the first time, Tera said those words in front of the public. As Zurawa heard this, he was excited not only about adventure and the unknown like he was back in his youth but because what he calls his family would be with him again and starting a new life.
He kneeled down to Raven like a knight. When Ranga and Terra saw this they already knew what Zurawa was thinking. They both smiled and also kneeled to Raven as they said they swore in their bloodline a blue, red, and gray light came out of their bodies and engraved the rule of the world.
"We swear to our bloodline to be loyal as your sharp sword, sturdy as a shield, and fast as an arrow to strike your enemies."
" Thank you for trusting me, but you didn't need swear it, you guys, well you won't regret it,"
Raven presented the three resurrection stones. The resurrection stone was like a diamond with pure white color and inside it, there was a wisp of soul inside a beating heart. It was very tiny. If a normal human saw it, they would think it was just a design on a stone. They wouldn't even feel the life of the stone.
"System used the three resurrection stone target Zurawa, Tera and Ranga"
[Ding.....Resurrection stone(life god)....target confirmed]
The three were being enveloped by white light and their whole bodies were shining, that even the guardian, who was a king and had an affinity to life, couldn't see through the white curtain. He could only feel the immense life force from the light without thinking much. He gave up on knowing the secret of those white lights, he closed his eyes like Raven and Suna were doing and waited for the resurrection to be completed.
