The Valkyrie Returns and Slays (Raven) novel Chapter 241

Chapter 241

To the side, Lorne, whose heart had suddenly leapt when the Draco Guards moved, finally let out a sigh of relief.

Just as he was considering how to smooth things over, the device on his wrist suddenly flashed.

When he saw the information displayed on the screen, he abruptly looked up at Raven.

He reported, “An urgent report just came in from the Outer Battlefield!”

Lorne continued, “The Sunset Empire, the Oscea Empire, and the Starlight Empire have jointly dispatched thirty Starbornes into our Vyrdenia’s territorial waters. On one of the islands, they discovered the burial ground of an extremely powerful Starborne ancestor. From it, they retrieved three sealed treasure boxes.”

He added, “They haven’t opened the boxes yet. But if any of them do so, the power of their Starbornes will increase drastically to a degree that could pose a fatal threat to our Vyrdenia!”

Lorne frowned. “Also, Sunset Empire forces have already reached the border of Vyrdenia! If we don’t send reinforcements immediately, the border will fall within three days!”

“What?” Upon hearing this devastating news, Emperor Grant, who was still trembling with rage from the Draco Guards‘ defiance, suddenly widened his eyes.

In an instant, fear replaced the fury in his heart.

If the Sunset Empire truly invaded, not only would his brother Benson be beyond saving, but even he himself would be doomed.

He didn’t know what to do.

Panic took hold, and instinctively, he looked toward the Draco Guards beside him.

But they kept their gaze forward, not even glancing in his direction, wordlessly reminding him that warfare wasn’t within their purview.

Emperor Grant’s lips twitched slightly.

But after a moment’s thought, he remembered that the Draco Guards indeed could not leave Regalhold. He quickly gave up on that idea.

At a loss, his gaze suddenly fell on Raven and the members of the Sirius Pack.

And just as his eyes turned toward them, the senior officials of Vyrdenia who had stood with Lorne earlier in the gravity interrogation chamber stepped forward.

Soon, one of them said to Raven solemnly, “General Valor, only you and the Sirius Pack can save Vyrdenia from destruction now!”

The other military officials quickly followed. “We respectfully ask General Valor to go to war for the nation, to quell the conflict between us and the Sunset Empire!”

“Please, General Valor. Fight for Vyrdenia!”
