Chapter 75
Raven just stood there, letting them talk, her face unreadable. It wasn’t until the room fell silent again that she finally spoke. “You done?” she asked,
voice calm.
The tanned soldier smirked, dropping the respectful act entirely. “Look, kid,” he said lazily. “We’re not gonna make this hard on you. Just read us the training manual or whatever, then get lost.”
The moment the words left his mouth, something blurred in front of his eyes. Before he could even register what was happening, a cold, steel–like grip closed around his throat.
“Ugh!” The soldier mind blanked as the sheer force of that grip crushed down, his instincts screaming that his neck was about to snap like a twig,
The scene before their eyes unfolded with astonishing speed. By the time everyone realized what was happening, the tanned soldier’s eyes had rolled back, clearly on the verge of being strangled to death.
Caleb’s smirk vanished in an instant, replaced by pure disbelief. ‘What the fuck?!‘ His brain struggled to catch up. ‘How? I’m a peak–level Intermediate Warrior, and I didn’t even see her move. Is she even human?‘
A soldier snapped back to reality. “Let him go!” Under the intense pressure of possible death at any moment, he almost didn’t think, directly snapping at Raven in a cold voice.
Raven turned her head slightly, fixing her gaze on the tall soldier who had spoken up. The moment their eyes met, his breath hitched, and he instinctively took a step back.
A second later, Raven hurled the choking soldier several yards away. Then, she walked straight towards the tall soldier.
The tall soldier felt the blood drain from his face. His body tensed as she closed the distance between them, every step slow, deliberate, predatory.
