However, Raven did not even glance at Isla. Instead, she turned straight to Ruth and asked, "Mom, did you see any houses you liked"

Ruth looked a little surprised as she asked in return, "Raven, the general you were just talking about? Is it the one everyone in Vyrdenia knows about?"

Right at that moment, an idea struck Isla. Quick on the uptake, she pulled out her phone and tapped the record button.

Raven gave a slight nod as she answered. "Yes." She noticed Isla's little move, but chose not to stop her.

To be honest. Raven was rather curious to see what this so-called campus queen from Regalhold University was capable of.

Ruth's expression shifted further into disbelief when she saw Raven nod. Then, with clear curiosity, she asked, "General Drakon has a stellar reputation. How on earth did you get to know someone so high up!"

Raven explained calmly, "When I was seventeen, I completed a mission that was critical to Vyrdenia. In recognition of that. Lorne personally awarded me a medal. That was the first time we met.

Isla froze for a second. Then her eyes lit up with excitement as she looked at Raven. In that instant, she felt incredibly proud of herself for hitting that record button. Genius move.

In Vyrdenia, military merit is treated with an almost obsessive level of seriousness.

If Raven had only claimed to know Lorne, sure, that would be a lie, but at most, she would get slapped with a light sentence, maybe two years, tops.

But now, she had gone a step further. She claimed that she'd accomplished a major mission at just seventeen, and that Lorne himself had personally presented her with a medal.

Only those who earned first-class military honors or higher had the right to receive such awards directly from Lome.

According to Vyrdenia's laws, if a member of the military fabricates claims of earning first-class honors or higher, they face no less than ten years in prison. If the offender is a civilian, the sentence ranges from ten years to life.

The recording now saved on Isla's phone was solid enough to put Raven behind bars for good.

Meanwhile, Cassian looked over at Raven, a flicker of surprise in his eyes.
