Just as a trace of contemplation began to emerge in Lorne’s eyes, Emperor Grant turned his gaze to Raven and Randolph. He had a murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
As the sovereign of Vyrdenia, his body was considered invaluable. Even the slightest scratch was unacceptable.
And now, because of Raven and Randolph, both of his arms had been broken.
The pain was so intense that his arms had nearly gone numb. Glaring at the two of them, Emperor Grant’s gaze was sharp enough to kill.
Then, he issued a command. “Draco Guards, hear my order! Arrest every single member of the Sirius Pack!”
His strength was too meager, and still immersed in the agony of his broken arms, he hadn’t truly grasped the terrifying power that the old woman had shown earlier.
All he wanted now was to have Raven and Randolph restrained.
He wanted to break their limbs, just so they could experience even a fraction of the torment he had endured.
Yet even now, Emperor Grant didn’t realize that the true reason for his downfall was himself.
If he hadn’t invited the Sunset Empire delegates into the country, none of this would have happened.
And driven by his inner fear and reverence for the Sunset Empire, he subconsciously blamed Raven and Randolph, despite it being the invaders who had harmed him.
Upon hearing his command, Raven turned toward him, her eyes calm and emotionless, like she was looking at a dead man.
The old woman also suddenly stepped forward.
Though killing a reigning emperor would surely bring her trouble, she had promised to protect Raven for three years.
As long as she still breathed, no one would touch Raven.
“Wait.” Raven raised a hand to stop her.
She could see that after battling the elder who wielded the space Starcard, the old woman was now in a severely weakened
state.
On the other side, the thirty–plus Draco Guards consisted of five Chariots, three Star Lords, and twenty–seven high–tier Starbornes. They were all practically untouched.
If the old woman fought them now, the odds were heavily against her.
Watching the Draco Guards close in quickly on her at Emperor Grant’s command, Raven asked, “You are a hidden force only deployed when Vyrdenia faces life or death, correct? Ordinarily, even Emperor Grant holds no authority over you?”
Her warrior rank stood at the peak of Chariot, and her star rank had just entered Star Lord.
If she went all out, she had a 70% chance of wiping out all the Draco Guards present.
But there was a 90% chance she would be seriously wounded.
Unless absolutely necessary, Raven didn’t want to fight these people who were still valuable assets to Vyrdenia.
The Draco Guards froze in their tracks at her words.

Then, the two leading guards exchanged a glance. They had hesitation in their eyes.

They had been raised from birth to serve as Draco Guards, but for decades, peace had reigned, and they had never truly been deployed. So when they heard Emperor Grant’s command, they instinctively obeyed.
“What are you waiting for?” Emperor Grant, seeing their hesitation, furrowed his brows and barked sharply.
But after a brief moment of indecision, the two leading guards stepped back and returned to Emperor Grant’s side.
One of them said calmly, “Your Majesty. Our duty is to protect both you and the safety of Vyrdenia. According to the legacy of our ancestors, unless the nation itself or your life is on the verge of collapse, we are not to act.”
Hearing this, Emperor Grant’s chest heaved violently from his overwhelming anger.
Raven and Randolph had already shown him outrageous disrespect, plotting against his very life. Now, even the Draco Guards dared defy him.
At this point, he felt like his throne meant nothing anymore.
