Ivan grabbed Kain and said firmly, "This is not the time to play. We took the money, and the deal is done. Let's go back."

Ivan glanced at Raven for a moment and thought to himself:
"This person... his energy is calm, perfectly controlled. He raised his power to an incredible level and then lowered it as if nothing had happened. Interesting."
468Please respect copyright.PENANAQp4aF7TaDQ
As for Raven, he felt something different inside him, as if this brief encounter had awakened an even greater desire to improve. He thought to himself:
"This is the result of continuous training... I must never stop training."

Zairos, walking away said, "Let's go. Next time, if this mistake happens again, I'll demand an even bigger amount!"
They returned to Arcadia's headquarters and headed straight to the leader to report what had happened.
468Please respect copyright.PENANASGddM0C0eb
Zairos: "We have received the money. This amount will keep us comfortable for years."
468Please respect copyright.PENANAQdLAeghQFT
Roderick: "Yes… It seems you’re all thinking about taking it easy and leaving Arcadia without any operations."
468Please respect copyright.PENANAYqmGyWX21o
Kain: "Exactly! Let’s take a year-long vacation!"
468Please respect copyright.PENANAaqrPyZu1kj
Ivan: "As if you work every day. We're just managing our projects there."

Roderick: "What happened was excellent. This will serve as a warning to the neighboring nations."

In Esteria, Raven was preparing for a new stage in his life.
After finishing high school, Raven applied for university, where the power level was much higher than before. Competition wasn’t just about intelligence and academic skills but also about physical strength and combat abilities. However, due to his rigorous training, he remained far stronger than all the students, surpassing them by an overwhelming margin.

Rumors about him spread quickly because he was the one who personally delivered Evren’s money to Arcadia! His name became well-known throughout the capital, making him the topic of conversation among elites and politicians. Everyone wanted to know who this young man.
468Please respect copyright.PENANAEURHpUMOiU
Job offers started pouring in. The largest companies and institutions in Esteria tried to recruit him, for in this world, the stronger you were, the more valuable you became. he chose to continue working with Evren to get closer to power, because strength alone wasn’t enough;

However, the real shock came when Evren’s family head summoned him personally
468Please respect copyright.PENANAuOoJ5JNZ1u
Raven, surprised: "You want me to attack the businesses of the six royal families?! But you are one of them too!"
468Please respect copyright.PENANAEY5HwcF0YY
The family head :
"The other families don’t see the money we paid Arcadia as assistance; they see it as a debt we must repay. We will attack, steal their funds and shipments, and use them to settle our debts."
468Please respect copyright.PENANAswzr09oSSD
"But remember… if you get caught, we don’t know you. We will never acknowledge you. Don’t let them catch you—no matter what it takes."
468Please respect copyright.PENANA3tTE3UpWil
468Please respect copyright.PENANAL1aQZKx9L2
The family head looked at Raven seriously and said:
"The operation will begin in a week. I’ll try to convince them to increase the money and goods… You must be ready and take everything."
468Please respect copyright.PENANAHnzEKi6MT1
His words were clear—there was no room for hesitation. . Raven wasn’t sure if he truly wanted to be part of this game.
Two days later, Raven received a call from the Evren palace:
468Please respect copyright.PENANAv8cEWWDjXa
"Listen carefully… The shipment will be at Falconir Port. Prepare yourself well. We will provide you with two trucks, and you must fill them with all the money we take."
468Please respect copyright.PENANAcGkDUq1D85
Raven's eyes widened in shock as he shouted in frustration:
"I have to attack alone?! Take out everyone, load all that money into the trucks, and leave without anyone noticing?! How do you expect me to do this by myself? I need a team!"
468Please respect copyright.PENANAhEaaclAny0
468Please respect copyright.PENANAo6GyEWxzDK
"We will provide you with drivers for the trucks, but we cannot supply you with a team. Everyone who works with us is known, and sending someone would risk exposing the operation."
468Please respect copyright.PENANAHG13PAYPCK
Raven clenched his phone tightly, his breathing growing heavier as he realized the scale of this disaster.
"I refuse to do this! This is insane!"
468Please respect copyright.PENANAx6sDWKyXue
468Please respect copyright.PENANAf1ZoIjMGM2
"If you refuse, then prepare to be expelled from university… and imprisoned as well. You know we are one of the royal families—we can accuse you of anything, and everyone will believe us. Even the president is a close friend of our family. You have no way out."
468Please respect copyright.PENANAOUznwnLOj4
A wave of cold dread washed over Raven. He knew they were serious. He had no choice but to agree… at least for now.
468Please respect copyright.PENANAdLyIfXjTwY
"I'll try, but if it turns out to be impossible, I won't attack."
468Please respect copyright.PENANAaxntynx8q4
"You can do it. Just wait for the right moment. We’ll disable the cameras so you can move freely. And don’t forget to wear your mask."
468Please respect copyright.PENANA506NQ6bAl5
The call ended. Raven tossed his phone onto the table,
"What a nightmare… This is impossible!"
468Please respect copyright.PENANAU3ZiVj3aZg
raven: "Now that I've become this strong… they're just using me like a mere tool."
468Please respect copyright.PENANAutIh93Fala
On the day of the operation, Raven was wearing his mask and mission attire, his eyes filled with caution and alertness. "No one must see me, or I’m the only one who loses." He whispered to himself as he approached the port but didn’t get too close. The trucks had arrived, loaded with goods and money, and the unloading process began quickly.
468Please respect copyright.PENANAmhdVO6YPLa
Raven started to devise his plan: "I’ll take out the guards in the back first, then I’ll move in and eliminate the guards at the main gate." He then addressed the drivers in a firm tone, "When I enter, I’ll open the main gate for you. Don’t move before that."
468Please respect copyright.PENANAaVsBDUqRfw
At that moment, his phone rang suddenly, and the number was unfamiliar. "Listen, this operation is a joint effort between Esteria and another country in south europe called Koravia. They will arrive 4 hours after the goods. You have limited time."
468Please respect copyright.PENANAnWjpekaOxh
Raven froze for a moment, questions flooding his mind. "Who are you?"
468Please respect copyright.PENANAOJjaiOVxQp
"We are the ones who gave you the mission. We won’t contact you from our primary number."
468Please respect copyright.PENANAv8kgMWAdC4
Without hesitation, Raven began executing his plan. He eliminated the guards at the back with precision, then climbed and entered the port. But as soon as he entered, the alarm sirens blared. Suddenly, over 20 people appeared, forming a tight circle around him.
468Please respect copyright.PENANAWSaqyjAH92
The fight began immediately, and while his opponents were strong, Raven could match five of them at once. As time passed, exhaustion began to take its toll on him. He couldn’t keep this up much longer, and the fight was draining his energy quickly.
468Please respect copyright.PENANAr9EAWpcAbY
Even though the fighters around him refrained from using their techniques to protect the goods and money, Raven decided to end the battle once and for all. He focused his energy on his legs, preparing for a high jump, but as soon as he leaped, they all flew after him.
468Please respect copyright.PENANAmzEgC5gtue
When he realized they wouldn’t stop, he decided to destroy them all in one move. He whispered to himself, "I’ll use my new techniques, I have two." He pointed both hands toward the port and aimed at them.
468Please respect copyright.PENANASAMWouZl16
"Lightning Beam!" The light moved at high speed, with a sharp sound, annihilating everyone and igniting fierce fires throughout the port.
468Please respect copyright.PENANAsWOjRwYEhG
After the battle, Raven remembered that the goods and money could be burning because of him. "No! Everything is burning!" he shouted, watching the destruction unfold.
468Please respect copyright.PENANA4b9b7Kselc
"I have to escape… what’s done is done."
468Please respect copyright.PENANAA3wuT7sSVS
Quickly, he retreated, realizing he could no longer recover anything. Escape was his only option.
