The underworld queen come back and slays novel Chapter 83

What were they hearing?

The position they dreamed of, handed to Raven on a silver platter by Lorne himself.

And instead of leaping at the chance with the utmost excitement and humility, she was negotiating? Laying down conditions, even! And such audacious

ones at that!

Sure, they acknowledged Raven’s inhuman strength and the countless impossible missions she’d pulled off.

But even her abilities couldn’t justify such arrogance, could they? Didn’t she fear Lorne’s wrath? Wouldn’t he just snatch the opportunity away, ending her chances of becoming General forever?

As these thoughts raced through their minds, everyone’s eyes were glued to Lorne’s face. Some were already picturing his furious expression and the dressing–down Raven was about to receive.

However, to everyone’s utter shock, Lorne actually sighed in relief upon hearing Raven’s words. He then nodded with a smile, not a hint of hesitation in

his voice.

“Those are minor details. As long as you agree to accept the position of General, everything else is negotiable.”

The onlookers were speechless.

‘Was this some kind of twisted joke? Was Lorne actually begging Raven to accept the General’s position?‘

Raven, noticing Lorne’s sly grin, raised an eyebrow.

“Since when did the General become so agreeable?”

Lorne immediately straightened his posture, his expression turning solemn and serious.

“As I said, you’ve earned it.”

“Without you, Vyrdenia wouldn’t be the world’s leading power.”

“Forget being number one, Vyrdenia would be lucky to even hold onto its position from five years ago.”

Everyone present, including Drake Jennings, was stunned. Their expressions reflected deep shock.

Vyrdenia’s current global dominance… was it all thanks to this girl who looked barely twenty?

Even with her record of completing countless terrifying missions, she was still just one person. How could she possibly wield such influence?

Before their doubts could fully form, Lorne’s next words struck them like a thunderbolt.

“General Valor, you’ve been away from the frontlines for only three days, and the Sirius Pack, the unit you directly commanded, has lost its backbone. After five years of unbroken victories, they’ve suffered two consecutive defeats. Other countries are taking advantage of this.”

“If this continues, at best, Vyrdenia’s elite forces will be severely weakened. At worst, our status as the world’s strongest nation will be critically damaged!”

Boorn!
