Chapter 337 Ultimate Brotherly Devotion
“Whether she stays or leaves isn’t your decision to make.”
Hiemaly’s words landed like an invisible slap across Helena’s face. She had already backed down so much, yet he still refused to give her any respect!
Helena slowly turned her head toward Raven, her fists clenched so tightly that a faint creaking sound echoed in the tense air.
The entire room seemed to freeze, everyone holding their breath in unison. No one doubted for a second that Helena might lash out and end Raven’s life right then and there.
Under the weight of everyone’s gaze, Helena locked her eyes on Raven and said coldly, “Get out. Or face the consequences.” Raven met Helena’s murderous glare with nothing more than a faint, unbothered smile. “If I walk out that door, you won’t last ten days. Are you sure you want me gone?”
Her words dropped like a thunderclap, plunging the grand hall into a stunned silence.
Every gaze locked onto Raven, their eyes brimming with shock and disbelief.
Suddenly, Miyamoto, the representative from the Sunset Empire, stepped forward, his voice cold and sharp. “Ten days? Are you cursing Lady Helena?”
Raven’s faint smile vanished, replaced by a cold, piercing gaze.
Before she could utter a word, Hiemaly’s serpentine dart streaked through the air without warning.
A sharp scream suddenly tore through the air, erupting from Miyamoto’s mouth.
The serpentine dart pierced through his right shoulder, its immense force sending him hurtling backward into the wall.
With a resounding crash, the dart pinned Miyamoto’s shoulder firmly against the wall, leaving him completely immobilized. Even though the onlookers were all influential figures, they couldn’t help but hold their breath at the sheer brutality of the
scene.
Their gazes shifted to Hiemaly, now tinged with a mix of awe and unease.
Rumor had it that Hiemaly was cold and unfeeling.
But now, it seemed those rumors were far from the truth!
Miyamoto had merely stepped forward to ask a question, and Hiemaly struck without hesitation.
He was clearly spoiling that woman rotten!
Cassian, standing on Raven’s other side, quietly withdrew the spikes hidden under his sleeve, a trace of frustration flickering across his strikingly handsome face.
‘Damn, he moves way too fast!‘
He was so close to being the one to step in and help Raven!
But Raven didn’t seem to notice Cassian’s failed attempt to intervene before Hiemaly acted.
She merely cast a calm glance at Miyamoto, now pinned to the wall with chilling precision, her expression as composed as ever, as if this outcome was entirely expected.
To her, it seemed that Hiemaly stepping in was the only natural course of action.
Her gaze shifted to Helena, whose face had visibly darkened after Hiemaly’s move.
you.”
Raven’s eyes flicked to the Diamond Wing in Helena’s hand before she spoke, her tone calm and unyielding. “You were born with a naturally cold constitution. Normally, with your strength, it wouldn’t be an issue. But you’ve meddled with something you shouldn’t have. In ten days, you’ll be dead. Trade the box in your hand for your life. It seems like a fair de
Initially, since that treasure box had been excavated from an ancient tomb within Vyrdenia’s borders, making it rightfully Vyrdenian property, she had planned to simply take it by force.
But seeing that Helena, while deeply in love, wasn’t entirely foolish, Raven reconsidered. If she tried to seize it outright, Helena might destroy the box in a fit of defiance before her death.
And honestly, Helena’s unrequited feelings for the clueless Hiemaly were just… pitiful.
She didn’t mind striking a deal that wouldn’t cost Successfully unlocked!

Helena gave Raven a cool once–over after hearing her words, her sharp features tinged with skepticism. “And why should I trust you?”
