Just as Jaxton’s hand was about to touch Raven, she casually raised her arm, caught his wrist–and gave it the slightest twist. 

The sound of bone breaking echoed like a firecracker in the dead silence. 

Jaxton’s scream tore through the air. 

Within a hundred feet, no one moved. The world seemed to freeze, stunned into absolute stillness. 

More than twenty cadets nearby stared at Jaxton, eyes wide in horror, expressions pale as death. 

That couldn’t be real. 

Jaxton was a Mid–Class Warrior. Trained. Strong. 

And Raven? She was a nobody from a backwater town, a scholarship student–basically dirt in their eyes. 

How could she possibly overpower him like that? 

Before they could even process what they’d just seen, Raven seized Jaxton’s jaw, pried it open–and shoved ten black pills down his throat. 

Three seconds later, Jaxton let out a bloodcurdling scream, the kind of pain no words could describe. 

After two cries, he passed out cold. 

Two seconds later, the agony woke him right back up. 

Then he passed out again. 

Then came back again. 

Over and over–consciousness and pain chasing each other like a nightmare loop. 

Raven crouched calmly beside him, her expression unchanged. She pulled a rope from God–knows–where and tied his wrists tightly. 

Jaxton realized, in a brief moment of clarity, that she’d just taken away even his chance to kill himself. 

His screams grew more desperate. 

The hatred in his eyes toward Raven burned like fire—but underneath it, buried deep, was something else. 

Terror. Pure, primal fear. 

The twenty–odd cadets watching from the sidelines were completely still. No one dared speak. No one dared breathe. 

They all had the same thought, ‘Is she… a demon?’ 

For the first time in their lives, they were genuinely afraid of someone their own age. 

Even Leopard, watching Jaxton twitch on the ground, couldn’t help but feel a twinge of pity. 

He’d been through it too. 

Raven had once made him take ten pills. He’d sworn never to remember how that felt–but right now, it all came rushing back.

As the group stood trembling, Raven calmly closed the Military Secret Box and slid it away. 

A wave of relief washed over the cadets. 

But it didn’t last long. 

Because just as they dared to breathe again–Raven pulled out a second box. 

Time stopped. 

This wasn’t luck anymore. One secret box was a miracle. But two? 

No one–no nobody–should have two of the military’s most guarded items. 

Raven opened the second box, and every face went pale. 

Inside were more pills. 

These weren’t black like before. They were slightly larger, the size of soybeans, and dark gray in color. 

Raven took out a handful–just over twenty pills–and handed them to Leopard. 

“One each. Pass them out.” 

The moment she spoke, the cadets started shaking all over again. 

“Raven–I was wrong. I’ll listen to you from now on, I swear!” 

“Same here! You say jump, I jump. You say kill a dog, I’ll kill a tiger!” 

“Please, Raven, please–I’ll do anything. Just don’t make me take that!” 

They didn’t know what the pills were. But they’d seen what happened to Jaxton. 

And the seventy–plus cadets from earlier? Yeah. No way they were about to suffer the same fate. 

But Raven didn’t even look at them. Her hand stayed out, offering the pills to Leopard, unmoved by their begging. Leopard didn’t dare hesitate. He took them with both hands like holy relics and began handing them out. 

Five cadets refused to touch them–so he dropped the pills on the ground in front of them without a word. Once he was done, Raven finally spoke. 

Her voice was calm, like nothing had happened. “Eat it.”
