“What do you want? Keep your hands off me! Keep away!” Velric’s pupils shrank sharply, feeling his skin press against the barrel of the gun. He felt as if his heart might stop. Those who heard Velric’s shout immediately struck him, knocking him to the ground. His gun slipped from his hand. Velric took a deep breath, and with what little strength remained, he lifted his head to look at Ravenna and spoke through gritted teeth.“Dammit! What do you want from me? You...” Velric’s words faltered, as if held back by something.His eyes locked on a direction. Some of the people who had come with him suddenly grabbed weapons and, in unison, committed suicide. The sight filled Velric and the others with fear.What is going on? Why are they killing themselves? How could this happen? Could it be... magic?“You, how did you do that?” Velric’s eyes widened in disbelief.Ravenna stood calmly, then stepped toward Velric and the remaining people. Watching her approach with such composure yet a chill

Realizing that senior officials from Luminaris Country would soon align with him, a glimmer of excitement sparkled in the eyes of the Onyx family head. They had secured an S-level invitation to the international genius doctor competition and were confident they would emerge victorious. He was equally certain that Richard would not be able to compete with him.In the past, the Onyx family head had approached the head of the Ligos city headquarters, pressuring him to force Richard to hand over his invitation. However, the response from the headquarters chief had been utterly shocking.The chief had said that the Onyx family was incompetent, resorting to stealing invitations rather than earning them. The Onyx family head had never forgotten that insult. And now, he was determined to exact revenge for the humiliation.“Oh, by the way, I heard that Richard claims to be Ravenna’s disciple. Is that true?” one of the senior officials asked.The Onyx family head nodded quickly, his demeanor b

“Mr. Richard, what did you just say? Sir, don’t joke around! Out there, you can pretend. But in front of us, please don’t lie to us.” “That’s right, Mr. Richard! How could she consider you her student? Sorry, Mr. Richard, you’re not drunk, are you?”None of them believed what Richard had just said. Even Ashren, who had heard Richard’s words, nearly fell off the stairs as he walked down.In his heart, Richard actually felt uncertain. He couldn’t believe that such things were happening to him. But his instincts told him that the woman couldn’t possibly be lying.“Yes, she really said that. She said I am her student. Then, she will personally announce my status at the upcoming international medical exhibition,” Richard said with a serious expression. Ramiro was stunned, mouth agape, and Paweł’s eyes widened. The others were also shocked for a moment before they could finally speak.“Mr. Richard, you should stop lying to us. We know who you are.”“You’ve always lived in Rio Dio country.

“If you don’t believe me, you can see for yourself at the upcoming international medical exhibition. You’ll see for yourself whether Ravenna will announce Mr. Richard as her student or not.”“Mr. Joseph, it’s not because I’m threatening you. But it’s too late for you to regret now. Delaying this further will only make things worse for you.”Seeing Velric’s terrified expression, Joseph began to think that this might be real. Realizing this, Joseph suddenly panicked.“What’s true? If he really is Ravenna’s student, he should have said so from the start!”“Mr. Velric, you’ve been fooled by Richard. You say I’ll regret this? Fine, no problem. But in my opinion, when the time comes, it will be you all who will regret it forever.”“Mr. Arthur and Mr. Griffin won’t let you live, and Ravenna won’t let go of her fake student. At that point, all I can do is watch as you all are in a pitiful state at the international medical exhibition.”Joseph stopped his provocation there. Instead, he asked h

When Brandy heard the word “Fool,” his mind went blank. He never expected that Richard could still be so arrogantly pompous!“Richard, regarding the matter of us revoking your citizenship, yes, it was our fault. We didn’t think much about it at the time.”“However, as the leader of the Elite Troops, you should also understand why we did this. If you were in our shoes, you would have done the same. You need to think this through carefully.”“Now, we are giving you a chance. If you agree, we will restore your citizenship.”It was truly touching! An incredibly precious opportunity! Richard almost kneeled and cried in gratitude.However, he wasn’t the type to accept when he had been betrayed, and now that person was licking his own spit.Richard recalled how Mr. Brandy used to speak to him. Now, what was he doing? Wasn’t he now licking his own spit?Richard then spoke firmly, “Mr. Brandy, who was it that discarded me in the past, claiming it was for everyone’s benefit? I was nothing but t
