Chapter 225 Silence
Chapter 225 Silence
As soon as Emperor Grant finished speaking, silence fell over the surroundings.
At this moment, the gazes of nearly half of the senior officials present toward Emperor Grant changed.
Although they had previously felt that there might have been some exaggeration in Raven’s contributions to Vyrdenia, her contributions were unmatched.
Moreover, they were very happy when they learned what Raven had done to the soldiers of the Sunset Empire.
But now, because of Emperor Grant’s fear of the fifty Starborne of the Sunset Empire, he not only denied the merits that Raven had fought for with her life on the battlefield, but also judged her heartening actions as heinous crimes.
They thought, ‘Is our emperor prioritizing the overall situation and concerned about the safety of Vyrdenia, or is he cowardly and afraid of death?‘
Just as the eyes of several of them gradually showed more and more doubt and dissatisfaction towards Emperor Grant, a senior official personally promoted by Emperor Grant suddenly stood up.
He said, “Your Majesty is right. The fifty Starborne of the Sunset Empire are not something that Vyrdenia can deal with now. At present, we must maintain a friendly relationship with the Sunset Empire, and at the same time, steadily improve the strength of the military. Only when our national strength improves will we have the qualification to speak to the Sunset Empire on equal terms.”
Forrest, who had previously been lectured by Raven, nodded in agreement. “Yes! If we release the video of Raven slaughtering members of the Sunset Empire now, the fifty Starborne of the Sunset Empire will arrive at the gates of Vyrdenia. At best, we will drive them back at a heavy cost, and at worst, our nation will face the disaster of extinction!”
Lorne’s face turned cold when he saw Forrest say that.
He said, “Blindly forbearance and retreat will only make the Sunset Empire, and even all the surrounding countries, think that Vyrdenia is weak and can be bullied, and they will push their luck!”
A high–ranking official promoted by Emperor Grant shook his head in disapproval. “General Drakon, if you endure it for a while, everything will be fine! You have to understand that the current situation is that Vyrdenia does not have the ability to deal with the fifty Starborne of the Sunset Empire. It is reckless to rush forward knowing that you are invincible!
“It is not worth risking the lives of millions or even tens of millions of people in Vyrdenia just to vent your anger.”
Another person said, “Yes! Sacrificing one Raven can not only give the public an explanation, but also let the Sunset Empire see our Vyrdenia’s determination to maintain friendly relations between the two countries. Raven can be considered to have died for a worthy cause.”
Lorne’s body trembled uncontrollably with anger as he listened to the righteous words of Emperor Grant’s defenders. “You…”
“You, you…”

Jedidiah Ortega of the Sunset Empire suddenly walked in with over thirty
more fierce and domineering than it had been ten days ago.
After stopping in his tracks, he looked directly at the Emperor of Vyrdenia and demanded in a tough tone, “Emperor of Vyrdenia, I spent ten days in seclusion to break through to the Chariot. As soon as I emerged, I heard that ten members of my Sunset Empire were brutally murdered. Do you have an explanation for this?”
The moment Jedidiah finished speaking, almost everyone present gasped. “The Chariot?”
At this moment, everyone looked at him differently.
They had been shocked when they learned that Jedidiah was a King Warrior.
But although they were shocked at the time, they were not overly afraid.
After all, Vyrdenia had no shortage of Elite Warriors. If they gathered dozens of them, it might not be impossible to defeat
him.
However, since Jedidiah had reached the Chariot, it was impossible to use the same tactic on him.
Thinking of this, many people looked at Jedidi Successfully unlocked! far in their eyes.
Facing Jedidiah, Emperor Grant’s body trembled uncontrollably, unable to withstand the overbearing pressure.
No matter what, he had been an emperor for quite some time. Although extremely terrified, he still managed to maintain a
calm expression and said, “It pains me to see members of the Sunset Empire killed right under my nose. Regardless, it was my negligence in governing my subordinates. I apologize for this matter.”

Seeing Emperor Grant’s slightly humble attitude, Jedidiah’s expression softened a bit.
However, he still asked with a cold expression, “So, how does Your Majesty plan to deal with the murderer who killed members of my Sunset Empire?”
Emperor Grant’s breath hitched when he heard this. He quickly turned to Jedidiah with a sincere expression. “That person has been imprisoned. As for how to deal with her, it is entirely up to you.”
“That person has been imprisoned. As for how to deal with them, it is entirely up to Jedidiah.”
He then turned to several of his trusted aides and said, “Go! Bring me the Raven and those Sirius Pack members under her command!”
“Yes!” Three of his trusted aides immediately responded and quickly headed toward the underground prison.
Three of his trusted aides immediately responded and quickly headed toward the underground prison.
Seeing this, Jedidiah revealed a satisfied smile as he looked at Emperor Grant.
He took a step forward and patted Emperor Grant’s shoulder in praise. “I knew I didn’t misjudge you. Your Majesty has not disappointed me.”
“It is my incompetence that led to this accident. Should the higher–ups of the Sunset Empire inquire about this, I implore you to put in a good word for me.”
The surrounding crowd watched Emperor Grant’s groveling, many closing their eyes in discomfort.
For the fifty Starbornes of the Sunset Empire, and the present Jedidiah, who had already reached the level of the Chariot, they could understand Emperor Grant’s humility.
But, it did not mean that they could accept it.
At this moment, they were certain that the current Emperor Grant who had ascended the throne by inheriting his father’s position, could not elevate Vyrdenia’s standing.
After all, no country could remain in the top position in the world forever.

Just as this thought crossed everyone’s minds, Lorne’s gaze swept over their faces.
The idea that had just formed in his heart grew even stronger.
However, he then glanced at Jedidiah and sighed inwardly.
Today, Raven would probably have to go through a fierce battle.
As long as Raven could barely survive at the hands of Jedidiah today, he would risk his own life to save hers.
At that time, Emperor Grant’s good days would be over.
