Devil...

Victor, along with everyone else in the room, was taken aback by..... Raven Noir.

She was a woman known for her silence, rarely speaking to anyone, so it was surprising to hear her voice now.

The professor frowned, clearly displeased by the interruption, "What's the matter, Ms. Raven Noir? I'm addressing this team, not yours. Please return to your place," he said, trying to maintain authority.

Ignoring the professor, Raven looked directly at Victor and made an unexpected offer. "I will give you 1000ˀ for this," she said, her voice calm and measured.

Victor blinked behind his mask, puzzled by her sudden interest, 'What is she up to?' he wondered.

Seeing Victor's silence, Raven upped the amount, "2000ˀ," she offered, her tone unwavering.

"..."

"3000ˀ"

"..."

"4000ˀ"

"..."

Still, Victor did not respond. Raven sighed and finally said, "5000ˀ. That's my final offer."
