Chapter 260
The guards standing on either side of the door could clearly feel the shift in Raven’s aura, and a trace of fear subconsciously appeared on their faces.
However, as she approached to enter the room, the shorter guard mustered up the courage to step Edric Lysander ordered that no one could enter. You can’t go in.”
Raven frowned slightly.
With just a single glance, the guard blocking her path involuntarily trembled.
forward and say, “Mr.
Seeing this, the other guard quickly raised his hand and pulled back his companion’s arm, saying, “The order didn’t include this lady.”
Then he turned to Raven and respectfully gestured, “Please, go right in.”
Raven gave a small nod and walked into Cassian’s room.
Inside, Cassian was alone. He sat cross–legged on the bed, closed.
eyes
But compared to when Raven had left earlier, his face now carried an unusual pallor.
Seeing this, she quickly stepped up to the bed and placed two fingers on his wrist.
Cassian didn’t react, remaining still as if unaware of her touch.
As Raven felt the strong but slightly chaotic pulse beneath her fingers, a hint of surprise flickered in her eyes.
This didn’t feel like the severe internal injuries Edric had mentioned on advancing to the next level.
She quickly examined him more closely.
Finally, she was certain. Her beloved was on the
the phone. It actually felt more like he was
verge of breaking through to Star Sovereign, the realm above Star Lord.
Since being disturbed during advancement was dangerous, and now assured that Cassian was physically fine, Raven quietly left the room to avoid interfering.
Still, as she walked out the door, a fresh wave of urgency surged in her heart. She needed to raise her strength fast.
Her sweetheart was advancing so quickly. She couldn’t be the one slowing him down.
Also, they did agree to a special night together.
Cassian didn’t say it, but she always knew he had dreams of reversing the roles in bed…
Not long after leaving the room, Raven happened to see Ash coming out of another room.
She immediately approached and asked, “Who ambushed Cassian?”
Hearing the slight chill in her voice and feeling the commanding aura emanating from her, Ash’s eyes showed a flicker of shock.
She thought her father said that her brother’s girlfriend was an ordinary person.
However, a “normal” person couldn’t give off such an overwhelming presence.

Raven narrowed her eyes slightly as Ash remained silent.
Ash immediately came back to her senses when she heard Raven’s voice.

She quickly responded, “My dad said the person had markings from Hiemal Court, the world’s fifth–ranked underground power. They also accused you of impersonating their leader’s sister.
Hearing the words Hiemal Court, a serious look crossed Ash’s face.
After all, the top 10 underground forces each held power equal to or greater than several national governments combined.
Every leader of the top ten underground forces in the world was a figure that the ruler of any country would treat with courtesy.
And the Lysander family couldn’t afford to offend the fifth–ranked Hiemal Court.
“Hiemal Court… impersonation…” Raven’s eyes narrowed slightly.
She’d heard of Hiemal Court before, but never paid much attention
to
- it.
Back then, she hadn’t realized that Hiemaly might’ve followed her to this world.
Now, it was worth looking into whether Hiemal Court had anything
do with him.
As for the man who had attacked Cassian, saying that she was an impostor…
And if someone from his side had dared hurt her man…
Thinking of this, a devilish smile slowly spread across Raven’s lips.
Seeing the smile on Raven’s small face, Ash couldn’t help but feel a chill run
down her spine.
For some reason, she had a very bad feeling. Someone was about to get
wrecked.
Without wasting time, Raven took out her phone and messaged Hugmuinn, asking him to investigate whether Hiemal Court had anyone named “Hiemaly.”
Once done, she looked at the green ring on her finger, the Ring of Life, which still held all the treasure she’d looted from Emperor Grant’s place.
Valhalla was currently ranked ninth among the world’s top ten forces. With this cache of treasures, they could easily make the top five in a short time.
If Hiemal Court did belong to Hiemaly, then things would be easier. But if not…
A sharp glint flashed through her eyes.
Raven then messaged Hugmuinn again, asking for his current location. She wanted to deliver the ring’s contents to him directly.
A few seconds later, she raised an eyebrow at his reply. He was still at Century Globe Hotel.
She’d heard rumors that Hugmuinn was in the process of acquiring Century Globe Hotel’s chain. It looked like today was a good time to check on the progress.
With that thought, she headed for the main gates of the Lysander family household.
“Raven, heading out? I’m just about to leave too–want a ride?” Ash caught up to her excitedly.

Before, she hadn’t thought much of Cassian dating someone seemingly ordinary. But after sensing Raven’s presence just now, she felt an urge to get closer to her.
Raven raised a brow at Ash’s sudden friendliness, but didn’t reject her company. She smiled. “I’m going to the Century Globe Hotel. That on your way?”
Ash was stunned.
The next moment, her eyes suddenly lit up. “Are you going to Century Globe Hotel, too?”
Raven asked, “Yes, are you?”
Ash replied, “Yeah! A friend of mine told me that Hazon, one of the personal subordinates of Hugmuinn from the Triad, is staying there. She even set up a meeting for me with him in half an hour!”
Hearing this, Raven’s eyes flashed with surprise as she looked at Ash. “You want to enter Valhalla?”
Ash was from the military, so logically speaking, it would be difficult for her to maintain a balance between the military and Valhalla.
Ash sighed as she heard Raven’s words. “Yeah. I almost died on the battlefield not long ago. If it weren’t for my husband, I wouldn’t be here anymore.”
She continued, “My dad was so worried, he pulled some strings and had me discharged from the military. I’ve recovered now, though, and I don’t want to be a useless bum.”
She added, “My friend says Hazon’s pretty approachable. A lot of people entered Valhalla through him.”
Raven’s eyes glinted. “Approachable? Letting people in through him?”
Ash suddenly realized she might’ve said too much.
She laughed awkwardly and waved her hands. “I mean, not that easy. Of course, strength still matters most.”
“Wait for me a sec, I’ll go with you to see him.” With that, Raven turned back to Cassian’s room, pulling out a Reborn Stone from the ring.
When she came back out, the two guards at the door took one look at her radiant, ethereal appearance. They instantly lost their breath.
They had never seen someone this pretty.
