Chapter 173 Humiliation
Even as Jedidiah writhed in pain, on the verge of passing out, Raven's voice cut through the agony with chilling
clarity.
Every word drove into his mind like a blade, and with it ca surge of humiliation so fierce it nearly crushed
his sanity.
But the pain was so overwhelming that he couldn't form a single coherent sentence.
All he could do was glare at her through bloodshot eyes and snarl like a wounded beast, his guttural screams
filled with fury and shame.
Around them, the crowd was frozen-shocked, breathless.
"Lieutenant General Valor... is that strong?"
"I didn't think Vyrdenia even had talents like her. No wonder General Drakon and the
new commander value her so much."
"She's so young-and already at this level? Her future's limitless."
Meanwhile, the leader of Sunset Empire slowly turned to Benson, his gaze frigid as he demanded, "I just heard

overpowering someone of a lower rank?
Benson frowned. Jedidiah was arrogant, sure, but the rank difference was real. From a military protocol
perspective, Sunset Empire's leader wasn't wrong.
But before he could answer, Raven turned to face the foreign general and replied coolly, "By your logic, that
makeshis superior officer. If your nation failed to teach him how to behave, I'm happy to step in. Any
objections?"
Her words dropped like thunder.
The Sunset Empire's leader's aura dropped a few degrees colder. "Our warriors are not yours to discipline."
A heavy pressure exploded outward, sweeping across the courtyard.
Several people instinctively stumbled back, faces pale.
A hush swept the crowd.
"Elite Warrior level... no, stronger..."
"He's a King Warrior?"
Gasps followed. Shock rippled through the assembled leaders.
In Vyrdenia, even General Lorne had never publicly admitted reaching King
Warrior level. If this foreigner truly held that rank, then Vyrdenia currently had no one who could match him.
So... was this visit an act of respect-or a covert show of dominance?

Chapter 173 Humiliation
Even Benson looked at the man beside him with undisguised disbelief.
And yet Raven just gave a faint smile, voice unhurried, eyes gleaming with contempt." If that's the case, then do
us all a favor-keep your mutts leashed. Don't let them
wander out just to bite people at will."
A flash of murderous coldness flared in the Sunset Empire leader's eyes. "You
think just because Mr. Macy is here, | won't touch you?"
As he stepped forward again, his pressure intensified, filling the air with a suffocating, unmistakable killing
intent.
A murmur of fear and concern rippled through the crowd.
"Lieutenant General Valor, just back down," someone urged in a low voice.
"She's on Vyrdenia soil-he won't dare kill her if she admits fault."

"Exactly. This isn't the tto posture. Know when to bend."
To them, Raven had earned her reputation. Her potential was undeniable-one day, she might even reach King
Warrior level herself. But not today. Not against this
opponent.
Raven glanced around at the family heads, all of them filled with well-meaning fear.
She smiled lightly. "Thank you for the advice."
The tension began to ease in their shoulders. Relief flickered in their eyes.
But they exhaled too soon.
Because in the next breath, Raven turned her head toward the Sunset Empire's leader, and the moment her
gaze met his, there wasn't a trace of jest in her voice.
"Ten days from now," she said, clear as crystal, "Vyrdenia's Hundred-Man Unit will face your elite troupe in a life-
or-death match."
Her words paused-just long enough to let silence swallow the courtyard whole.
"On that day," she continued, voice sharp enough to pierce bone, "I'll kill a King Warrior from Sunset Empire...
and offer his blood as a sacrifice."
