Chapter 407 Yielding To The Little Boss
The moment Lola’s voice faded, the roomful of stunned spectators froze for a breath
Then, realization dawned like thunder.
Everyone’s gazes toward Raven shifted once more, now laced with deeper complexity and a tinge of disbelief.
None of them could have imagined that Raven would possess greater strength than Lola.
But even if she was that powerful, stealing someone else’s Innate Starcard in broad daylight crossed every line, let alone the fact that an Innate Starcard wasn’t something just anyone could use.
And most importantly–Lola wasn’t just a princess. Behind her stood the Sunset Empire’s royal family, and even more terrifyingly, the World Star God Association.
Did Raven not understand the consequences of what she’d just done?
Suddenly, everyone looked at her with pity.
To them, Raven was now a prodigy with both unparalleled medical skill and terrifying martial talent, but blinded by greed. She was going to fall at the hands of the Star God Association’s President, which was a loss.
Meanwhile, Hiemaly’s attention had shifted entirely to the entrance.
He had thought Lola might’ve arranged for Saxon and that little boss to stay elsewhere in the palace. But now, that terrifying pair was headed straight for them.
At the thought, the ever–icy Hiemaly–whose face had remained expressionless through battles, threats, and chaos–finally showed a crack.
“Let’s leave. Now,” Hiemaly said suddenly, his voice still calm, but clearly rushed.
It wasn’t that Hiemaly was afraid of the little boss. He just couldn’t let Raven meet him this soon.
That guy always walked around with a face like the whole world owed him billions. If Raven ended up liking that, it would be a miracle.
And if she didn’t, he would be the one cleaning up the mess.
So, Hiemaly made a decision. Before Raven met the little boss, he had to–somehow–teach that guy how to talk to a girl. Even though he knew getting someone to like him might be out of the question for life, at the very least, the guy shouldn’t make people want to run away screaming.
Raven clearly picked up on something. She looked at Hiemaly’s unusually tense and uneasy face, and a clear line of suspicion flashed through her eyes. “Do you know the President of the Star God Association?”
She couldn’t imagine what kind of man could make her usually unshakeable “big brother” this nervous.
She had never seen that expression on Hiemaly’s face before.
Hiemaly heard her question and nearly choked. He wanted to say that he didn’t and didn’t want to know him.
That coward Saxon had not only bowed under the pressure of the little boss but had even brought him here.‘
But the situation didn’t allow him to speak his mind.
So even though it was killing him inside, he nodded. “That person is very strong. If we can avoid a confrontation–it’s best we don’t.”
Raven raised an eyebrow, the doubt in her gaze deepening.
She had never seen Hiemaly treat anyone with this much caution.
This wasn’t just awareness of a powerful figure–it was nearly reverence, even fear.
In this world, there shouldn’t be anyone stronger than Hiemaly.
Not when compared to who he used to be before arriving here.
Hiemaly felt Raven’s curious eyes digging into him, and for the first time in a long time, he felt… awkward.
But with the little boss likely to appear any moment, he didn’t have time to care.
“We’ve got the Starcard. There is nothing we can Successfully unlocked! without waiting for her reply, reached out and grabbed her arm, ready to leave.
But just then, a group of people suddenly walked over from afar.
