The surrounding high-ranking military officials felt an even deeper sense of disappointment toward Emperor
Grant upon hearing his words.
At the stime, the faint thoughts that had recently begun to form about replacing the ruler grew stronger and
more
urgent.
However, they still hadn't found a suitable candidate to becthe new leader.
But once that person appeared. It would be tfor the seed of rebellion to take root and grow.
Seeing that Emperor Grant remained unmoved, Lorne was genuinely worried for Raven's safety. He stepped
forward again. He pleaded with growing urgency, even though he knew the chances were slim.
He said, "Your Majesty, if Raven and the Sirius Pack are lost, Vyrdenia will soon face a crisis!"
Though they were disillusioned, the other officials still followed suit and echoed, "Your Majesty, please give
General Valor a chance, give Vyrdenia a chance!"
"Your Majesty..."
Emperor Grant raised his hand impatiently. "Enough. | will not activate the Draco Guard for a prisoner locked in a
dungeon. But since you've pleaded to this extent, | can show smercy."

He paused for a moment, then added with a tone of generosity, "Here's the deal. Regardless of what means she
uses, if she can survive an encounter with Jedidiah, | will reinstate her as general and allow her to return to the
border war."
His tone turned colder. "But if she dies here today..."
At that, Emperor Grant turned to Jedidiah, his voice softening. "If Jedidiah gets what he desires, | ask that you
negotiate with the Sunset Empire leadership. As long as Benson is released, | will do everything I can to fulfill any
of the Sunset Empire's reasonable demands."
Lorne and the high-ranking officials were utterly stunned.
At a moment like this, Emperor Grant placed no hope in the Vyrdenia Military. Instead, he was asking the
enemy's leader for help.
And from the sound of it, as long as the Sunset Empire didn't go too far, even ceding territory or paying
reparations might be acceptable.
It seemed Emperor Grant was distrustful of Raven or of the entire Vyrdenia Military.
While everyone was still reeling from shock, Jedidiah merely let out a quiet laugh at Emperor Grant's words. He
neither agreed nor refused.
After casting a cold glance at Emperor Grant, his gaze fell on Raven.
He said, “If | remember correctly, ten days ago, you said you'd killtoday as an offering to the heavens."
As he spoke, his expression suddenly turned cold, and the powerful aura of a Chariot burst from his body.
Along with it chis bone-chilling words. "So... what now?"
At this moment, Jedidiah fully expected Raven to be overwhelmed by the sheer
force of his power level, her face twisting in horror and regret.

The thing he enjoyed most was when his opponent, before he even made a move, already felt the helplessness
and despair of impending death.
And now, this reaction was about to appear on the face of the one who had once terrified countless enemy
warriors at the border, a legend of Vyrdenia Military with monstrous talent.
Just imagining it filled him with satisfaction and pleasure.
However, seconds passed.
Raven simply looked at him calmly from start to finish, her expression hardly changing.

But if one looked closely, they would see that her eyes held a faint trace of mockery, as if she were watching a
clown perform tricks.
Her reaction was like a bucket of ice water dumped directly over Jedidiah's head, completely washing away all
the pride and arrogance he felt from his recent promotion to Chariot.
"ou..."
At that moment, Jedidiah was hit with an overwhelming sense of defeat he had never experienced before.
And alongside that, he had a surge of intense resentment and fury.
He shouted, "You're asking for this!"
The moment the words left his mouth, he moved. With the terrifying force of a Chariot-level fighter, his fist
smashed directly toward Raven's chest.
The surrounding high-ranking Vyrdenia officials saw this, and their pupils shrank violently.
Several of them cried out instinctively, "General Valor, look out!”
"If you dare kill General Valor, the Vyrdenia Military will fight you to death!"
"I'll take you down with me!
"Your Majesty, please save General Valor!*
"Your Majesty..."
The final speaker didn't even finish his sentence. When he saw what unfolded before his eyes, his expression
turned pale, eyes suddenly wide with shock.
And it wasn't just him. Vyrdenia's top officials, Lorne, and even Emperor Grant himself were struck with a look of
utter disbelief and horror.
