Chapter 581 The Introduction
Seeing Alton’s smug expression, the higher–ups who had previously been critical kept their mouths shut not dang to speak up.
Alton suddenly said, “Now that everyone knows we’ve kicked Raven out of the military, I can openly declare my dejare
to Mr. Brown.
“This Saturday, I’ll head to Broson City for the World Celebrities Wine Party. Once lesk Mr. Brown to step in, let’s see those international task forces still dare to act so brazenly on our turf.”
He added. “As long as Mr. Brown gives the word, whether it’s Chontix’s prime minister or the Sunset Empire’s commander, they’ll be scared out of their wits and rush to get out of our borders.”
Alton’s words immediately shifted the attitudes of the higher–ups who had previously harbored complants about him
“Exactly. If we can secure Mr. Brown’s protection, who cares about Raven?” they agreed
Their priority now was to align themselves with George, not to dwell on whether expelling Raven from the military was the right decision.
With this realization, the expressions of the higher–ups softened, and they reaffirmed their support for Altoris plan
“Commander Nelson, we’re counting on you for this World Celebrities Wine Party. For Vyrdenials future, you must do everything you can to win Mr. Brown’s favor and secure his protection,” a man said.
While the top brass of the Vyrdenia Military were busy brainstorming ways to win over George, Raven bad already boarded a helicopter bound for Broson City.
Now that she was no longer the supreme commander of the Vyrdenia Military, it wasn’t appropriate for her to linger in the border warzone for too long.
After giving Randolph and the others a few instructions, she decided to head straight back to Broson City
The regretful officials seized the opportunity to offer her a ride back, reasoning that a helicopter was the fastest way to travel from the border to other cities. Raven didn’t bother refusing their offer.
But she underestimated their shamelessness. Once the helicopter landed at her villa in Broson City, the officials disembarked as well, trailing behind her as she walked into the house.
“Raven, we were so blind before. Commander Macy told us you’d offended the Parsons farrity and Lord Robert, and we panicked. That’s why we kicked you out of the military. Looking back now, we must’ve been out of our minds.” The officials. visibly anxious, scrambled to salvage their image in front of Raven.
He added, “But I heard you didn’t stop at offending Lord Robert. You even had the audacity to claim you’re Mr. Brown’s disciple. Do you have any idea how reckless that was? We can’t even afford to provoke Lord Robert, let alone his master
“Mr. Brown is known to be cold and ruthless. If you’ve really angered him, you’re practically asking for trouble”
Though they begrudgingly acknowledged Raven’s strength, the officials still couldn’t believe she had what it took to stand against someone as formidable as George.
Raven stared at the high–ranking officials, feeling utterly speechless at their heartfelt concern for her predicament.
She hadn’t anticipated things would become so convoluted. Initially, she had only agreed to Rin’s suggestion to pose as George’s disciple because she wanted a chance to meet him and plead for his help in curing Benedict.
But what she hadn’t expected was that, upon arriving at Tranquil Manor, George would tell her outright that she wasn’t pretending. She truly was his disciple. The revelation had left her completely stunned.
Seeing Raven remain silent, the officials mistook her quietness for fear, assuming she had realized the gravity of the situation. One of them tentatively spoke up, “Raven, we just received a notice from Lord Robert. This Saturday, at the World Celebrities Wine Party hosted at Suntia House, Mr. Brown will publicly introduce his disciple to the world.
“When that happens, Mr. Brown is bound to hold you accountable for impersonating his disciple. You need to leave now while you still can. Broson City isn’t safe for you anymore. With your nationality revoked, you’re essentially without protection. It’s best to escape to a Western country for refuge as soon as possible.*
‘World Celebrities Wine Party? Introducing his disciple?‘ Raven wondered.
Suddenly, Raven recalled the words George had spoken to her at Tranquil Manor. He had said he would personally acknowledge her identity in front of everyone.
Successfully unlocked!
‘So that white–robed man, the one who felt so strangery for really is debige? she thought.
Raven had always harbored doubts about the true identity of the man in white.
After all, she had never met George before. So even when she encountered the man in white at Tranquil Manor, she couldn’t
confirm who he was.

Chapter bei The introduction
But now, the public announcement George released perfectly aligned with what the man in white had told her just a few days ago.
Wait? Could I really have a master? she thought. No matter how much Raven racked her brain, she couldn’t understand how she could forget something so significant.
And it wasn’t just her. Neither Cassian nor Hiemaly had ever mentioned anything about her having a master.
The high ranking officials, seeing Raven remain silent, grew increasingly anxious, pacing back and forth in frustration. Watching her stubbornly hold her ground even in such a critical moment, they couldn’t help but feel worried for her.
One said, “Raven, we’re not trying to scare you, but this is serious. You’ve been telling everyone you’re Mr. Brown’s disciple, but we all know that’s impossible. Pack your things and leave Broson City as soon as you can. If you wait until the World Celebrities Wine Party, it’ll be too late to escape.”
