The Valkyrie Returns and Slays (Raven) novel Chapter 264

1

If they really got to meet the famous Hugmuinn today, Ash felt that Raven might actually catch Hugmuinn’s eye and even be granted special admission into Valhalla.

And once she had the favor of Hugmuinn, Raven could rise to power effortlessly within Valhalla

Thinking of this, Ash made up her mind. No matter what, she had to make sure Raven saw Hugmuinn today.

Just then, Hazon picked up an empty wine glass and slowly poured half a glass of red wine into it.

He then placed it in front of Raven with a smile and said, “Your name is Raven, right? I don’t know why, but it sounds oddly familiar. Maybe it’s fate.”

Raven cast a faint glance at the red wine in front of her, then at Hazon. Her gaze grew colder.

Ash had just told him she was allergic to alcohol, yet he still pushed the drink in front of her.

Seeing this, Elizabeth immediately looked at Raven with visible displeasure. “Being favored by Mr. Jenkins is your honor. How can you be so clueless?”

As she spoke, she pointed her chin at the wine glass, clearly signaling Raven to drink it.

Raven glanced at her indifferently and chuckled. “Honor? And how are you so sure? He didn’t even hear my name before!”

Although her name was not widely spread in Valhalla, many people should have heard of it.

If Hazon was truly from Valhalla, it was entirely possible he had heard it before but hadn’t bothered to remember it clearly.

Then he turned to Raven again, that signature greasy smile back on his face. “They didn’t mean any harm, Miss Valor. Please don’t take it to heart.”

He paused, glanced at her plainly dressed military uniform, then added, “But judging by your outfit, I assume your background isn’t particularly noble. It’s not surprising you’d be looked down on.”

He added, “People always say not to care too much about others‘ opinions, but we humans are social creatures. Who can truly ignore what others think?”
