Kurt's expression darkened the moment Harvey spoke. "What part of this do you not understand?" he asked
sharply, brows knitting together.
Harvey's face twisted, his tone growing colder with every word. "I want to know," he said, eyes burning with
disbelief, "how a low-born girl from sbackwater town is qualified to receive your one and only President's
Emblem."
At that, Kurt's face turned completely stormy. "And who exactly," he said, his voice low and lethal, “are you
calling a low-born girl from a backwater town?"
Harvey sneered. Kurt was deliberately avoiding the real issue.
He had no interest in wasting more words on the man, so he turned instead to Corey Jackson, standing beside
Kurt, and bowed slightly with a falsely respectful tone.
"Mr. Jackson," he said, "this woman standing across fromis nothing more than a first-year student. Yet on her
very first day, she was handed an emblem granting her authority equal to the President's-and she's been using
that emblem to run wild across the academy. | respectfully request that you report this matter to the military and
move to have President Monroe removed from his position. Furthermore, | ask that this girl, who neither respects
her superiors nor understands her place, be expelled from Regalhold University."

At his words, Corey's brow twitched ever so slightly.
But before he could respond, Kurt suddenly laughed.
His gaze snapped to Harvey, sharp as a blade. "Respect her superiors? Understand her place? She's the acting
president of this institution. So tell me, Harvey-what 'superiors' does she need to bow to? What 'place' is she
supposed to remember in front of you?"
The words hit like thunder.
Harvey froze.
He blinked, stunned, and repeated blankly, “Acting president...?”
Even Corey, always composed, raised an eyebrow in surprise.
But unlike Harvey, Corey quickly recovered. And when his gaze turned to Raven, something shifted-
understanding, and perhaps... interest. No wonder he'd sensed a quiet strength in her from the moment they
met. She carried herself like a soldier. A warrior.
And now it all made sense.
'So she's from the military,’ he thought.
That would certainly make it easier to bring her under his command-provided her strength matched the aura she
gave off. But he would still need to see it for himself before making any decisions.
As Corey studied her in silence, Harvey slowly began to recover from the shock.
Then-foolishly-he barked out a cold laugh. “That's the best excuse you could cup with? Really? You expect
president? What kind of idiot do you takefor?"
Kurt said nothing. Instead, he calmly reached into the leather bag at his side. From within, he withdrew a dark
green envelope.

Without hesitation, he flung it.
The envelope hit Harvey square in the chest with a crisp smack, before falling to the ground at his feet.
Kurt's voice followed, cutting through the air like a sword.
"That," he said coldly, "is the military-issued appointment letter naming her acting president of Regalhold
University- delivered directly tofrom high command. Go ahead. Pick it up. Read it. Use your own eyes."
Harvey didn't move.
He stared down at the envelope on the floor, but made no effort to reach for it.

He didn't need to.
Because even he wasn't stupid enough to believe Kurt would dare forge an official military document, especially
not in front of Grand General Corey Jackson.
His face turned pale.
And then, little by little, his expression began to shift.
First cshock. Then cthe creeping sting of regret. And finally-devastation.
Everything he'd just said, every accusation, every demand-it had all been built on a single assumption: that
Raven was just a student. Just a girl. Just another non the roster.
Because if she were a student, then she would be bound by the srules that bound all students. And those
rules, Harvey thought, gave him power over her.
But the truth was now standing in front of him, undeniable and damning.
Raven wasn't just a student. She wasn't someone beneath him. She was someone he should have bowed to from
the very beginning.
