"There’s no point in running... I’ll find out who you are." Ryo muttered to himself, determination gleaming in his eyes.

Raven darted , leaping over obstacles, avoiding crowded streets. But Ryo was relentless—following like a shadow, waiting for his chance.
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡty6a147VCV
After several minutes of silent pursuit, Raven finally stopped… in front of a house.
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEIh4SynGua
Ryo hid , watching carefully, waiting to see who would come out of this place.
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3epY7ptWhC
With a quiet sigh, Raven stepped inside and shut the door behind him. Moments later, he removed his mask and took a deep breath.
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4lj2v8sGx
Little did he know… Ryo was still waiting outside, patient as ever.
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLiKVbmIjL
"Alright... soon, I’ll know who you really are." Ryo whispered with a smirk, leaning casually against the wall.
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCoA4k5wBIW
Hours passed.
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKArnGTIJZd
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8i9TSCCsH5
Raven stepped out of his house,
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1HQbaS2nBF
Ryo knew the identity of the masked man.
The next day, Ryo headed to work. he worked directly with the most powerful royal families. Not because he was loyal to them, but simply because his strength made him a valuable asset.
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7nyK3r1L6r
Most of the time, his tasks involved protection—guarding shipments, securing convoys, and overseeing transportation. But sometimes, he was assigned special missions.
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLunoyDfqj
That morning, Ryo received a new order from House Valderin, one of the most influential royal families, to supervise the delivery of a critical shipment and ensure its safe arrival.
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52pYY3GIMu
"I can reveal the identity of the masked one."
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFlrT9ZGLOA
He continued, "But... for a price."
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHTz9NzV22
One of the noblemen raised an eyebrow and asked, "How much?"
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzfTmNBvrS
"A quarter million Phonex."
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpeX43P6GV
The family members exchanged glances before one of them finally responded, "250,000 Phonex? That’s a hefty sum
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNR0NgvCgqt
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9olVKLKF1
Ryo received no response regarding the payment. it wasn’t a rejection, but it was a clear answer nonetheless.
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04OssZzwck
Ryo: " I'll continue working with you... Let's leave this matter for another time."

The Grand Celebration... and the Arrival of Terror
That day, a grand celebration was held in the academy’s central courtyard. Students, professors, and high-ranking officials from all across the nation had gathered.
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dPFh4jEG4
Among them was the nation's ruler himself, a man rumored to be one of the strongest magic users of this era.
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0aAtayCZzF
Standing beside the academy’s headmaster, he began speaking in a composed yet commanding tone:
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfx5jd6tFnS
Ruler: "The academy looks as strong as ever... How is the training going? Is the new generation promising?"
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGVsjWfx5O
Headmaster (smiling confidently): "Of course, Your Excellency. This year’s students possess exceptional potential. We have talents unlike any we've seen in decades!"
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksOykdqwRA
Ruler (nodding): "Good. Our nation's strength depends on these mages, and I expect the academy to continue producing only the best."
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQuMs4GuRD
But then...
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImC0IhUiqm
The ground trembled suddenly...!
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhOv3ydmmS
A terrifying pressure swept across the courtyard—the air turned suffocatingly heavy, as if death itself had descended upon them.
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6VqXqyiIP
A dark, monstrous aura engulfed everything.
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ltNNYgJSa
Time seemed to freeze, and even the very air felt like it was being sucked away.
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkF4FViP9p
Ryo fell to his knees—his body unable to withstand the overwhelming force!
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmXz4JgOgu
On the other side of the courtyard...
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ClTP2UE3e
Raven collapsed as well, his eyes widening in pure shock.
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYgdEPLD7Qx
"Impossible... What is this power?!"
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZLS1yaoIw
While everyone was drowning in panic, one figure moved calmly amidst the chaos.
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMG8jKqmDhu
He walked with unwavering steps, heading straight toward Lord Evren, the head of one of the most powerful royal families.
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDzISnGAqA
Standing before him, his glowing eyes resembled a demon emerging from the depths of hell.
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIfNXfvzW4
"It’s time to pay for what you’ve done." His voice was quiet, but it carried an undeniable promise of death.
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWr89PlDoKK
he reached behind him and unsheathed a massive black sword—one that seemed to devour the very light around it.
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMkVRJsAuw
Then, in a single, fluid motion, he struck.
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVWEGGOX1C
A violent metallic scream tore through the air.
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO43qSvkmNt
And in that moment...
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZfNoyvKiZ
The academy’s sacred emblem, the very symbol of its power, was split in half.
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsX49y8Nzj5
The emblem crashed onto the ground, shattering before the stunned audience.
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ06joWyF1fo
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtefrRsxeZJ
Zairos stood in the middle of the courtyard, his aura filling the space with an overwhelming presence.
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FzXQUrPIA
"I am the Vice Commander of Arcadia."
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBuCxBG624
His eyes gleamed with a mysterious power, and his deep voice carried an undertone of menace. As he spoke, his aura continued to radiate, pressing down on everyone like an invisible force.
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMz9vxWaTA
He continued in a cold, measured tone:
"You interfered with our operations… and halted our workers' shipments. Such actions cannot be ignored."
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjvvnxFk0N
Lord Evren stood frozen, beads of sweat forming on his forehead. His voice trembled as he responded:
"We didn't know it was yours! We will compensate you with whatever you want, just let’s resolve this peacefully!"
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxZU0mjQhm
Zairos glanced at him with sheer disdain :
"The compensation must be fitting… It should cover the lost profits from your interference, along with an additional sum as an apology. Let’s say… 800 million Phonex."
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkRTxcoX8V
Lord Evren’s eyes widened in shock. He clutched his head, unable to comprehend the absurd amount. His voice broke as he muttered:
"800 million?! How… and why such a sum?!"
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxw1KBEv4c
Zairos answered firmly:
"You must pay… unless you want trouble with us."
588Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa44UFStlsQ
Without giving them a chance to argue, he vanished in an instant, leaving behind an oppressive silence and the lingering fear of what Arcadia was truly capable of.
