"There’s no point in running... I’ll find out who you are." Ryo muttered to himself, determination gleaming in his eyes.
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTUAVQO5wjT
Raven darted , leaping over obstacles, avoiding crowded streets. But Ryo was relentless—following like a shadow, waiting for his chance.
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxrwY9ZzZW
After several minutes of silent pursuit, Raven finally stopped… in front of a house.
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wjb5dVHoA
Ryo hid , watching carefully, waiting to see who would come out of this place.
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6s4HPoC7o
With a quiet sigh, Raven stepped inside and shut the door behind him. Moments later, he removed his mask and took a deep breath.
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3UE6qNvaXj
Little did he know… Ryo was still waiting outside, patient as ever.
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KW8MSTARw
"Alright... soon, I’ll know who you really are." Ryo whispered with a smirk, leaning casually against the wall.
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqgodQ4DSH
Hours passed.
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK68E4PFroz
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCmzIEIQ9M
Raven stepped out of his house,
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWilsJo1RAE
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.
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9VDYVwdAFy
Most of the time, his tasks involved protection—guarding shipments, securing convoys, and overseeing transportation. But sometimes, he was assigned special missions.
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdDHfRSCAo
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.
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbRiuz70TK
"I can reveal the identity of the masked one."
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGsWqna6e8o
He continued, "But... for a price."
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qKTceukwl
One of the noblemen raised an eyebrow and asked, "How much?"
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmTpR2pkNG
"A quarter million Phonex."
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOQ2T52wvg
The family members exchanged glances before one of them finally responded, "250,000 Phonex? That’s a hefty sum
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpBIy1IkhFp
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCrRAwcrb3
Ryo received no response regarding the payment. it wasn’t a rejection, but it was a clear answer nonetheless.
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTpORnLQ9S
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.
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBA5x2d4oFD
Among them was the nation's ruler himself, a man rumored to be one of the strongest magic users of this era.
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSpoWk21dv
Standing beside the academy’s headmaster, he began speaking in a composed yet commanding tone:
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP842dhwPNK
Ruler: "The academy looks as strong as ever... How is the training going? Is the new generation promising?"
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2rv0ZnJoD
Headmaster (smiling confidently): "Of course, Your Excellency. This year’s students possess exceptional potential. We have talents unlike any we've seen in decades!"
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ffMH34YxM
Ruler (nodding): "Good. Our nation's strength depends on these mages, and I expect the academy to continue producing only the best."
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFOOl5rt0D
But then...
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjQYArUW0A
The ground trembled suddenly...!
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4sTCi6xxi
A terrifying pressure swept across the courtyard—the air turned suffocatingly heavy, as if death itself had descended upon them.
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmvIMF8ocW
A dark, monstrous aura engulfed everything.
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCEF6P8jPl
Time seemed to freeze, and even the very air felt like it was being sucked away.
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX826PZMJ87
Ryo fell to his knees—his body unable to withstand the overwhelming force!
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwSrde2tRC
On the other side of the courtyard...
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQRO07B50B
Raven collapsed as well, his eyes widening in pure shock.
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBrbHGztHll
"Impossible... What is this power?!"
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzqkQ29MMH
While everyone was drowning in panic, one figure moved calmly amidst the chaos.
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BEcnkbI19
He walked with unwavering steps, heading straight toward Lord Evren, the head of one of the most powerful royal families.
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCY8mVLXjt
Standing before him, his glowing eyes resembled a demon emerging from the depths of hell.
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfvUq8LOey
"It’s time to pay for what you’ve done." His voice was quiet, but it carried an undeniable promise of death.
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ89Cvd5eaf1
he reached behind him and unsheathed a massive black sword—one that seemed to devour the very light around it.
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33JZFUCZIr
Then, in a single, fluid motion, he struck.
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Lu3JLjmd8
A violent metallic scream tore through the air.
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6ECBiHsLi
And in that moment...
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPfPJNdmSz
The academy’s sacred emblem, the very symbol of its power, was split in half.
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwN0ZoUOuY
The emblem crashed onto the ground, shattering before the stunned audience.
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAElhWThV6C
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvYXTpFtwF
Zairos stood in the middle of the courtyard, his aura filling the space with an overwhelming presence.
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFSh1lT1Vw
"I am the Vice Commander of Arcadia."
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPHgwTc60Ed
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.
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzrsfYWcLad
He continued in a cold, measured tone:
"You interfered with our operations… and halted our workers' shipments. Such actions cannot be ignored."
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmGxUiLZOR
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!"
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPv81a9QBUa
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."
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbM8mZVaxo3
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?!"
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKwl3yuBqY
Zairos answered firmly:
"You must pay… unless you want trouble with us."
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR0eIilqDW1
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.
