The Valkyrie Returns and Slays (Raven)

Chapter 370 Let The New General Decide

As soon as Tony's words landed, the room plunged into an eerie silence. It was like he'd dropped a bomb, leaving everyone completely dumbfounded.

Of course, there were exceptions. For instance, a few soldiers had met Raven before. And her grandfather, Miles, who was standing right beside her.

Miles's breath quickened, and his heart raced. He was now almost certain his guess was spot on. His granddaughter might truly be a colonel!

A colonel! A rank he'd spent his entire life striving for but never achieved. And a female colonel? There had been only a handful in the entire history of Vyrdenia!

If this turned out to be true, his granddaughter could very well go down in military history as a legend. The more Miles thought about it, the more his excitement surged. Eventually, he dared not let his thoughts wander further. In his mind, only one word echoed: "Colonel."

Meanwhile, Lionel slowly snapped out of the haze caused by Tony's sarcastic and dismissive remarks. He opened his mouth to speak but found himself at a loss for words. After several attempts, he finally managed to squeeze out a hesitant question, his voice strained.

"Commander Tony, are you saying she should be given a rank higher than Colonel?" Lionel asked with a strained voice. The surrounding soldiers all turned their gazes toward Tony. In that moment, the tension in their eyes mirrored that of a volcano on the verge of eruption.
