Not just Harvey-every student nearby froze in place the moment they saw the man standing at the edge of the
crowd. All eyes turned toward the figure in the dark military uniform.
A man in his early fifties, his hair dusted with gray, face marked by time, yet still bearing traces of the striking
handsomeness he must've once had.
But no one cared about his appearance. What drew their breath short was the insignia on his chest.
"Is that... the Grand General badge?"
"One of only five Grand Generals in all of Vyrdenia, just one rank beneath the suprgeneral?"
"What is someone like him doing here at our academy?"
The Grand General-Corey Jackson-swept his sharp gaze across the tense scene, his brow creasing slightly as he
took in the chaos before him.
Then, turning toward Kurt with faint disapproval, he asked in a measured tone, "Mr. Monroe... what exactly is

Before Kurt could answer, Harvey-having snapped out of his daze-quickly stepped forward, seizing the
opportunity. "Mr. Monroe," he said, his voice deliberately aggrieved, "this student disrespected her superior,
broke my arm, and even rallied others to forcibly expelfrom the academy grounds. | request that she be
expelled immediately, in accordance with academy regulations-and the students who assisted her in this
disgraceful insubordination should be punished as well
Corey's expression didn't shift, but his eyes followed the direction of Harvey's pointing finger-until they landed on
Raven. She stood there, utterly composed, calm to the point of arrogance. Not a flicker of fear. Not even a blink
of doubt. Corey raised an eyebrow, intrigued.
He had seen countless young soldiers in his time, but never one who, after injuring a high-ranking staff member,
could stand so casually before a Grand General, as if the matter were nothing more than a mild inconvenience.
And what was more surprising-far more surprising-was the reaction of the students around her.
He expected tension. He expected whispers, fear, or anger.
What he didn't expect... was silence.
Silence-and the kind of looks being directed at Harvey. Confused. Cold. Almost... pitying.
They're looking at him like he's an idiot, Corey thought, genuinely taken aback.
Even after years of battlefield command and tactical planning, he found himself momentarily stunned by the
sheer oddity of the scene.
And just as he began to wonder what he'd missed, Kurt's voice rang out, cutting through the silence like a blade
of ice.
“Harvey,” he said, tone flat and final, “Regalhold University has no more room for you. Gather your things—and
leave.” Harvey stood rooted to the spot.

Chapter 153
He'd expected complications. He'd known that Raven carrying the Headmaster's Seal meant removing her
wouldn't be easy. But even then, he had assumed that Kurt would at least make a show of reprimanding her, that
she'd suffer sconsequence to save face.
Anything less, and the rules of the academy would beca joke.
But this? This was insanity.
Kurt wasn't just refusing to punish Raven-he was outright firing him?

He stared at the man who had once been his superior, his voice turning cold with disbelief.
"Are you serious?" he said. "Do you think this academy is your personal property?"
Corey's eyes narrowed slightly as he turned toward Kurt, his own expression tinged with uncertainty now. He
didn't dislike Raven-in fact, he liked her a lot.
There was fire in that girl. The kind of unruly spark that, if properly shaped, could burn a path straight through
Vyrdenia's military ranks.
With the right training, he was confident she could beca senior commander before the age of twenty-five.
He hadn't seen potential like that in a decade.
But personal preference was one thing-protocol was another. If Kurt was truly disregarding regulations just to
protect this girl, he couldn't turn a blind eye.
Harvey, still reeling, slowly drew in a breath and stared at Kurt-not as a
subordinate, but as a man betrayed. His voice, when it came, was low and bitter.
"Even if you plan to kill me," he said, "don't I at least deserve to know why?"
