The Valkyrie Returns and Slays (Raven) novel Chapter 396

Chapter 396 Dr. Valor?

At the same time, Raven switched the call to speaker mode.

The call was quickly answered.

A respectful and unmistakably cautious voice came through the receiver. “Dr. Valor, what an honor–what brings you to call me?”

The moment Ethan’s voice landed, the entire room was instantly engulfed in dead silence.

Every pair of eyes was filled with disbelief so intense it was nearly tangible.

“Did I hear that right?”

“Dr. Valor?”

“Impossible.”

How could there be someone in this world whom even the great Dr. Ethan would call “Dr.“?

“And he sounded so respectful,”

They started wondering who the beautiful young girl in front of them were.

How could someone like her make Ethan, the legendary doctor and president of the World Medical Association, speak in such a tone?

Among them, Ellie’s faint smugness vanished in an instant.

Ethan, her grandmaster, knew this woman.

And–was it just her imagination?-she seemed to detect a hint of deference and humility in Ethan’s voice?

How could this be?‘

This girl doesn’t even look twenty years old.’

How could Ethan possibly show her such respect?‘

Meanwhile, beside Ellie, John’s previously composed and aloof expression froze completely.

At that moment, a deep and ominous premonition began to swell in his chest.

But before he could grasp that fleeting thought, Raven parted her lips–and the voice she used before restoring her appearance now flowed steadily from her mouth. “Ethan, I heard the Nine Meridians Technique was your original creation?” The moment John heard her tone, the unease in his heart grew tenfold.

Everyone else in the room stared in shock.

That was Ethan on the other end of the call!

The president of the World Medical Conference!

“You heard? Dr. Valor, who told you that?”

“Please… pass the phone to him.”
