chapter 7

  In Asteria, Raven was preparing for a new stage in his life.

  After finishing high school, Raven applied for university, where the power level was much higher than before. Competition wasn’t just about intelligence and academic skills but also about physical strength and combat abilities. However, due to his rigorous training, he remained far stronger than all the students, surpassing them by an overwhelming margin.

  Rumors about him spread quickly because he was the one who personally delivered Evren’s money to Arcadia! His name became well-known throughout the capital, making him the topic of conversation among elites and politicians. Everyone wanted to know who this young man.

  Job offers started pouring in. The largest companies and institutions in Asteria tried to recruit him, for in this world, the stronger you were, the more valuable you became. he chose to continue working with Evren to get closer to power, because strength alone wasn’t enough;

  However, the real shock came when Evren’s family head summoned him personally

  Raven, surprised: "You want me to attack the businesses of the six royal families?! But you are one of them too!"

  The family head :

  "The other families don’t see the money we paid Arcadia as assistance; they see it as a debt we must repay. We will attack, steal their funds and shipments, and use them to settle our debts."

  "But remember… if you get caught, we don’t know you. We will never acknowledge you. Don’t let them catch you—no matter what it takes."

  The family head looked at Raven seriously and said:

  "The operation will begin in a week. I’ll try to convince them to increase the money and goods… You must be ready and take everything."

  His words were clear—there was no room for hesitation. . Raven wasn’t sure if he truly wanted to be part of this game.

  Two days later, Raven received a call from the Evren palace:

  If you come across this story on Amazon, it's taken without permission from the author. Report it.

  "Listen carefully… The shipment will be at Falconir Port. Prepare yourself well. We will provide you with two trucks, and you must fill them with all the money we take."

  Raven's eyes widened in shock as he shouted in frustration:

  "I have to attack alone?! Take out everyone, load all that money into the trucks, and leave without anyone noticing?! How do you expect me to do this by myself? I need a team!"

  "We will provide you with drivers for the trucks, but we cannot supply you with a team. Everyone who works with us is known, and sending someone would risk exposing the operation."

  Raven clenched his phone tightly, his breathing growing heavier as he realized the scale of this disaster.

  "I refuse to do this! This is insane!"

  "If you refuse, then prepare to be expelled from university… and imprisoned as well. You know we are one of the royal families—we can accuse you of anything, and everyone will believe us. Even the president is a close friend of our family. You have no way out."

  A wave of cold dread washed over Raven. He knew they were serious. He had no choice but to agree… at least for now.

  "I'll try, but if it turns out to be impossible, I won't attack."

  The call ended. Raven tossed his phone onto the table,

  "What a nightmare… This is impossible!"

  raven: "Now that I've become this strong… they're just using me like a mere tool."

  On the day of the operation, Raven was wearing his mask and mission attire, his eyes filled with caution and alertness. "No one must see me, or I’m the only one who loses." He whispered to himself as he approached the port but didn’t get too close. The trucks had arrived, loaded with goods and money, and the unloading process began quickly.

  Raven started to devise his plan: "I’ll take out the guards in the back first, then I’ll move in and eliminate the guards at the main gate." He then addressed the drivers in a firm tone, "When I enter, I’ll open the main gate for you. Don’t move before that."

  At that moment, his phone rang suddenly, and the number was unfamiliar. "Listen, this operation is a joint effort between Esteria and another country in south europe called Koravia. They will arrive 4 hours after the goods. You have limited time."

  Raven froze for a moment, questions flooding his mind. "Who are you?"

  "We are the ones who gave you the mission. We won’t contact you from our primary number."

  Without hesitation, Raven began executing his plan. He eliminated the guards at the back with precision, then climbed and entered the port. But as soon as he entered, the alarm sirens blared. Suddenly, over 20 people appeared, forming a tight circle around him.

  The fight began immediately, and while his opponents were strong, Raven could match five of them at once. As time passed, exhaustion began to take its toll on him. He couldn’t keep this up much longer, and the fight was draining his energy quickly.

  Even though the fighters around him refrained from using their techniques to protect the goods and money, Raven decided to end the battle once and for all. He focused his energy on his legs, preparing for a high jump, but as soon as he leaped, they all flew after him.

  When he realized they wouldn’t stop, he decided to destroy them all in one move. He whispered to himself, "I’ll use my new techniques, I have two." He pointed both hands toward the port and aimed at them.

  "Lightning Blade!" The light moved at high speed, with a sharp sound, annihilating everyone and igniting fierce fires throughout the port.

  After the battle, Raven remembered that the goods and money could be burning because of him. "No! Everything is burning!" he shouted, watching the destruction unfold.

  "I have to escape… what’s done is done."

  Quickly, he retreated, realizing he could no longer recover anything. Escape was his only option.

  "You can do it. Just wait for the right moment. We’ll disable the cameras so you can move freely. And don’t forget to wear your mask."
