The moment Corey's voice fell, a collective gasp swept through the crowd.

No one had expected this. While most of the students were still dreaming of just qualifying for the Hundred-Man Unit selection test, someone else had already been granted a confirmed spot-no testing, no evaluation. A direct appointment.

A formal position in the Hundred-Man Unit.

It was more than an honor. It was a straight path to becoming a high-ranking military commander, and with it, a legitimate chance to enter Starlight Capital, the dream of every warrior across the continent.

In an instant, every eye turned to Raven. And those gazes were brimming with pure, concentrated envy.

She was so young. So new. And somehow, she had already become the acting president of Regalhold. And now-this?

Could her luck get any better?

Even Kurt blinked in mild astonishment, shooting Raven a sideways glance filled with surprise.

He had always sensed she was strong-extremely strong-but as his own strength had declined with age, he couldn't quite gauge just how powerful she truly was.

But now? If General Corey Jackson was personally offering up a Hundred-Man Unit slot to recruit her, then Raven's strength had to be even more terrifying than he'd imagined.
