The underworld queen come back and slays novel Chapter 123

Chapter 123

Leopard cleared his throat. “Raven, have you forgotten something? I’m the instructor. You’re a cadet.”

The class stared at him in disbelief.

Wasn’t he supposed to assert his authority, lay down the law, and show Raven who was in charge?

So why… did he sound like he was trying to gently remind her instead of commanding her?

Before they could process that, Raven calmly looked at Leopard and said, “This training lasts ten days. Are you planning to

waste all ten?”

Originally, she hadn’t intended to stay past the opening ceremony.

But after sizing them up, she decided to remain–for one reason. Leopard and his group had potential. If she could get them through the Hundred–Man Unit assessment, they could become her trusted aides in the elite corps.

And her mission during these ten days was simple: to push them to a breakthrough.

Leopard felt the weight of her gaze and instinctively shook his head. “No, ma’am.”

Then his shoulders drooped again. He looked at her, voice small. “But… do we really have to run that many laps?”

At that moment, Leopard truly wanted to disappear.

Just earlier, he’d been feeling sorry for Jaxton. Now he realized–he was the one who needed saving.

This training ground was huge. A hundred laps? Not even three hours would be enough. Two was a fantasy. Raven was clearly out to destroy him.

And the worst part? He was starting to think she had evidence to prove it.

Meanwhile, the rest of the class sat frozen in shock.

Had they heard right?

Raven had just trampled all over Leopard’s authority, and not only did he not get angry–he actually started negotiating with her?

What the hell was going on?

Before anyone could wrap their heads around it, Raven turned to Leopard and asked, her tone steady and low, “You got a problem with my orders?”

Leopard snapped to attention like a soldier under fire. “No, ma’am!”

Raven nodded slightly. Then she swept her gaze across the class, her expression unreadable.

“Anyone else have a problem?”

Silence. No one dared to speak.

Taking their silence as consent, Raven pulled out her phone, opened the timer app, and said evenly, “Two hours. Starting

now,”

As soon as the words left her mouth, Leopard shot off like a cannon. The others stared after him, faces conflicted.

Eventually, a few broke into a jog behind him.

But most of the class? They chose a much more leisurely pace.

A handful of girls didn’t even bother jogging–just casually strolled like it was a morning walk in the park.

They weren’t stupid. Ten laps in two hours might be doable. But a hundred? That was flat–out impossible. Why kill themselves over a lost cause?

Raven, however, remained still, silently observing. She didn’t say a word.
